OHhh I have forgot to mention .. After I Burned the DVD I was playing it back in Media Player on the same PC Suite to check it as the DVD Suite is in another room… This is where you can only select the second chapter with the mouse over,,, I then tried it on a DVD player and both buttons work.. Umm I am not sure if it is also supposed to work in Media player . Any idea

Hello John

Thanks for the information..I thought I would have one last look at this before sending a request to SONY just in case it was something silly,,,,,,and noted your comments again “match the media and it still doesn’t play correctly”. I guess as you are an expert then there must still be something I have missed and did not mentin to you… I did the match and it set the FPS correct etc, but I then noticed that as the original was NON Progressive, it still left the Project Properties > Deinterlace method set to BLEND,,, I change ths to NONE and it works perfect… Thanks again.. To be truthful I did not know that you could change the FPS by that method or even just typing into the FRAME RATE the FPS you wanted,,, I have used this program for some time….so it is never to late to ask an expert,, Regards John

Hello John .. I had not tried that so I was hopefull that it would solve it but it does not seem to make any difference. The properties do show that is is set @ 30 FPS @ not interlaced.. Any other ideas thanks in advance John

Hello all… Well I did eventually find the solution.. The problem was that in the Properties of the video clip I had not DISABLED RESAMPLE.. After doing that and using the 2 * AVI Files the jerky video is now smooth. When the 2 identical timelines where played at the same time all was OK … it was only when I off-set them for the differnce parts of the video I saw this problem

I have noticed that if I went one frame at a time.. on some frames it would show the same frame for 4 frames.. When I diabled the Resample, it changed with every frame

Hope this may help someone else

Hello . Thanks for your reply.. I have also tried my original verion 9a but it does not make any differnce…….I updated to 9d a while ago and it it only recent that I needed to try the cookie cutter to run 2 video timelines at the same time. I can’t beleve I am the only person who has got this problem… There must be some settings that I have not found which overcomes this. I have also tried the MASK to provide a see through area of the first TIME line video but makes not differnce.
