    Hi,
    a simple looking solution:
    Create each sentence as graphic in two versions, a standard and a highlited one.
    Place the highlited one on top of the other, and mask it out.
    Animate the mask so that the highliting is timed properly.

    Hope I could help.

    Laszlo Kovacs, thanks.

    Guess what, Eduis 4 Pro can do it in RealTime on dual core!
    Too bad Vegas has to rendered.

    dpsVelocityQ is the best. It can do it in Real Time and Very sharp text!!!!

    Thanks.
    Nit.

    Hi,
    and you’re welcome.

    Mind that my idea is just one possible solution, there may be
    other good approximation of the problem.

    About RT:
    Vegas is not designed to be realtime (however preview is almost
    realtime in most cases), vegas is an editor.

    OK, you have to render that takes some time.
    How much time does it take compared to time it takes to input
    all the text, and timing the appearence?

    I guess a lot more times then then the acutal length of a song…
    😉

    So, does it really matter if it’s rendered realtime or not?

    I guess not.

    I think the important differences may be in such details as
    how easy you can achieve the desired result.
    Don’t know edius nor velocityq, so I can’t tell which is better.

    But there are also lot’s of titlers used beside vegas, I can imagine one of them could be effective as well.
    Maybe a look around worth…

    As always, for a taks choose the tool that fits the best.
    😉

    Hello All,

    i want to make karaoke style like this….
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNKHNGpitFI&feature

    is it possible using Sony Vegas Pro 10?

    for example :
    Seems like it was yesterday
    when I saw your face
    You told me
    how proud you were, but I walked away
    If only I knew what I know today, ooh, ooh

    1st screen
    Seems like it was yesterday
    when I saw your face
    2nd screen
    You told me
    when I saw your face
    3rd screen
    You told me
    how proud you were
    etc….

    Thanks you for your help
