effects don’t work, help!!
Posted by Itamar Kool on August 22, 2008 at 3:01 pmWhat’s going on?? I apply an effect and nothing happens!! None of all my affects do anything. They are all there in the plug ins folder, but nothing does anything!!

There are two likely answers: You’re applying effects to the clip in the Browser, not the one in the timeline, or, you have a severely corrupted machine. The latter is most unlikely. The former is easier to mess up than you might think.bogiesan
This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”

August 23, 2008 at 7:57 amHi David,
No it is on the timeline that I applied the effects. I tried some more stuff, trashed the preferences and also tried on another project. Turns out that with the other project everything woks OK. But not on this specific one. It was shot with a Sony XD Cam and I used XD Cam transfer to capture the shots. I am not too familiar with XD Cam. Could it be that I did something wrong there??Kool En De Anderen

August 25, 2008 at 2:17 pmThanks for closing your thread with a viable solution, hardly anyone ever does that around here.
