I tried SEARCH and didn't come up with anything. sorry
I am using Pro 8. My video FX is not working. I can't even use Brightness/Contrast! This has never happend and so I don't know how to fix it. Any ideas? thanks
Turn OFF the "SPlit Screen" view. It's the circle that's half dark half light just above the preview screen. You have it set to "Bypass Effects" - which it is doing quite well.
Who would have thought? Thank you SO MUCH. I have been using Vegas since version 4 and have never seen that or needed to use it. And, why is that ever there? Anyway, I am fine now. thanks again. :o) Roger
It's there for 2 reasons:
1) the split screen lets you compare with and without VFX simultaneously;
2) turning it off allows preview to run more quickly than when processing VFX, without you having to go in and switch of each effect.
I use the on/off for evaluation on the external monitor of grading changes.
Also it's very useful for matching CC between 2 different video clips. You can have one clip in the left, and a different clip in the right so you can match the CC as need be, without jumping back and forth.
