I cannot play this one - bad download, or is it another flavour of mp4?

I'd suspect a bad download.
I grabbed it earlier today and it was fine.
Movie Inspector in my QT player (7.5.5) says both this one and the one from the other day have the same specs.

Grazie, do you mean a tutorial or a tool?

Tool.

Gotcha.
I'd be ecstatic if SCS gave us the ability to draw a path around an object like we can with a lot of other apps.
For example, Photoshop and it's "Magnetic Lasso" tool .
That would make drawing Beziers so much easier.
I think it's time to fire off another suggestion :-)
edit: suggestion submitted

The speed and ease with which I can draw Beziers in Vegas improved no end after I watched a tutorial on the Write On FX in AE. Almost as fast as if he'd had a Magnetic Lasoo.

Now if we could just get the way Vegas handles the alpha channel fixed in Vegas I'd be one happy camper.

Just wondering aloud

Boris has motion key filter now the reverse of that would be automatic masking…… IF ONLY…. way easier than mocha in AE

The key to masking is before you start identify sharp nodes and curved nodes on the piece this only takes a second
Then off you go… click on sharp and click drag on curved

Or just hit all sharp select split tangent and modify the curved nodes with handles to curved

Now what would be great is in Photoimpact they have a tool called remove object its like a thick pen and you simply draw around the edge set the levels and bang done
Now combine that with Boris motion key and… then…they…….. can…………… employ……………… a dumbbell to do my job
