I have just upgraded to VMS17 Platinium and when I try to load a movie project I created in VMS16 I get an error message after approx 60% loaded saying "An error occurred while loading the project file (filename.vf.) The application does not support this file type.
this file loads OK in VMS16
I have created a nw movie in VMS17 and it reloads OK
I am running the latest build 204 and PC OS is Win 10
What file is at the point where you get the error? Follow these directions, please.
Thanks for the reply Musicvid, I have installed Mediainfo but when I open the vf file I only get limited details as below
General Complete name : G:\Our Photos\2020_2_24 Australia\Video\Australia2020v8.vf File size : 3.17 MiB
Also from VMS file properties I get
General Name: Australia2020v8.vf Folder: G:\Our Photos\2020_2_24 Australia\Video Type: Movie Studio 16.0 Platinum Size: 3.24 MB (3,321,872 bytes) Created: 28 May 2020, 15:16:13 Modified: 28 May 2020, 15:16:13 Accessed: 31 January 2021, 11:47:12 Attributes: ArchiveOther metadata Regions/markers: no Command markers: noMedia manager Media tags: no
The Mediainfo to source file of your project... (.MP4 / .MOV / .MXF / etc)
The .VF is only project.
Hello set
this is a large project containing approx 400 files of mp4, mov, avi and mp3 files
is there a way to capture the info of these without having to trawl each and every file?
the key issue I have is v16 loads up ok but v17 doesn’t
@roger-baker
Working on the same machine that hold all the sources it might not be a problem to load made projectfiles from 16 to 17 unless you used in 16 things ( effects, transitions, mediagenerators) that are not available in your new version.
You can also try to open both versions and copy all the time line events from VMS 16 together to an empty VMS 17 to past there.
