Bundled Boris Continuum Title Studio

How do I make Boris Continuum Title Studio a plug -in to Vegas 16 or Vegas 11. The Title Studio was part of the package when I purchased Vegas 16 recently. I can open Boris Continuum Studio as a stand alone but I can not add video to the Title Studio images. Are there any solutions to add Title Studio as a plug-in for Vegas Pro? I have Windows 7 and a Intel core i7 computer Thanks

I have more or less have the exact same issue! I just purchased a combination pack from Best Buy that included Movie Studio 15.0 Platinum (not Pro) and Video Sound Cleaning Lab. During the install it installed Continuum (BCC) Title Studio and it looks really great for creating titles.

Looking at online videos (most are related to Avid, Adobe Premiere and even Vegas Pro) they all have a plug-in available that lets you open the Title Studio UI, edit your Title, close it and it pre-populates into the timeline. I have NOT been able to find a way to do this in Movie Studio 15.

There also seems to be no way to export your title creation in a format that can be imported into Movie Studio. If this is the case, the having Title Studio is a total waste of time as it appears completely useless without this ability.

Windows 10 / Intel Core i5

Been searching YouTube and Google endlessly for 24 hours. Frustrated.

On a slightly related side note. When I installed the products and then ran licensing for the BCC stuff, it said some of my plug-ins were not licensed and asked if I wanted to remove them. I said "no" and then when using Movie Studio found that most of the BCC provided features were flagged as "trial" versions. I ran through licensing again and removed them this time. The remaining ones are available, but it seems really cheap and misleading to include a bunch of options and not let us use them.

On another thread here, I found this discussion:

https://www.vegascreativesoftware.info/us/forum/boris-continum-title-studio--111911/

Reading over this it appears that Title Studio comes with Boris Continuum 3D Objects https://borisfx.com/products/continuum-units/3d-objects/

If that's the case, they want $299.99 for it. On their "buy" page you can select just the Title Studio plug-in, but that shows $199.99. Seriously?

From the BorisFX site: "Title Studio can be purchased as part of Continuum 2019, the 3D Objects Continuum Unit or as an individual Premium Filter." Don't know if that's different from the bundled TS. The prices are what you quoted anyway.

Btw, didn't the advice from @Dr Zen "on another thread" regarding TS in VMS15P help?

Thanks vkmast - I helped point me in the direction of "I need to buy more stuff." Which honesty, feels like a total sham. If there's no way to "export" to a usable format and I can't integrate from Movie Studio without paying more money, it's really nothing more than a "demo." The Best Buy disc gives you two options "Install Movie Studio" or "Install Video Sound Cleaning" - all the other stuff is just "add-ins." Seems like they should have had options like "Install Title Studio DEMO" and such.

I have reached out to the support teams of both products to see if there is a way to use it.. but I'm guessing Magix will say "talk to Boris" and Boris will say "pay us money."

It's probably a demo, because I haven't heard of any MSP bundle that includes Boris Title Studio. The only NLEs I know that bundle it are Corel VideoStudio Ultimate and HitFilm Pro (3D Objects Bundled) or Express (added Purchase - $50 or so).

I know older version of VEGAS Pro have included 3D Objects, and MSP tended to come with an Express version of NB Titler (like my MSP14 did).
