Thanks Mike.

I’ll do as you suggest and use pan/crop to maintain the res of the source jpgs.

Thanks again!

Perfect!
Thanks Bill!

never mind 🙂

I can see the thumbs if I bring the jpgs in my project and use media manager to view them.

I guess I wanted to see them without importing them, but this will work. Very silly of me.

I hope this helps someone else.

Thanks Mike!

I haven’t heard from the other 2 fellows on this post. However I just emailed Tom. We’ll see what happens.

Thanks for the contact!

Hey guys,

Just curious… did you ever find such a group in Toronto?
Cheers,

Excellent! Thanks so much for this helpful tip. I’ll give it a whirl in my next project.

By the way, I burned the same project 50 min or so project in 2 different ways. One with a standard template, the other using the “Tools-BurnDisc-DVDdisk” menu option. When I look at the burned/reflective side of the DVDs, I notice that the DVD burned from the template shows “burned” section up to about half the DVD whereas the DVD burned from the menu has an “underneath” that looks more like a commercial DVD. That is, it looks like a lot more of the disc’s surface was used to burn the DVD.

Is what I’m seeing a result of the bitrate used?

Hi Mike,

How do you know to choose CBR over VBR?

Thanks Bill,
I’ve never used chromakey… i’m not sure what you mean. I may just have to play with it.

Thanks! I like this one, using the clock wipe… clever.

Theo, I like that solution as well, looks interesting but I’m not sure how to replace spicemaster with gradient wipe.
