wondering why using the intertainment console at all ?? just use the "what you hear" port with the speakers and start the record just before actual audio starts and the stop the recording a few seconds after the end of then audio then just go to the "sound editor" option and there do all the editing you want ????

Is this the similar problem you posted in the nXT5 forum ? Not sure how many of our group are still running NXT5 so to answer your question I'm not sure if the NXT5 Sound Editor is the same as NXT7 ? I have not noticed any big changes in the program (sound editor) over time.

Check this---The audio cable from my speakers are connected to the "What you hear" port on my sound card. I use the program NXT 7 Pro. I go to the "Music and audio" program and when there I click on "Capture audio from sound card". Once that starts I start the audio file I want to capture and then click on "Record". Whe funished I click on edit in the sound editor feature and the click on save for that capture. Save it to my desktop and that's it. Your NXT 5 pro should have pretty much the same features. I am not running it so not sure if each setting is exactly the same but should be very similar.

HD Movie Maker Pro is a great program the free version won't do as much as the Pro version but it's on sale now from MS at only $8.99. and it does lots.

Do you have more than one device for sound on your computer ? I ask as I have three --one ifs a dedicated sound card, one is the default one that is part of my MB and another from another program. So when I want to capture sound from my sound card I have to make sure my sound devices for sound are set for my dedicated card and set my NXT7 program for capture sound from my sound card. Your solution is a good work around and works OK as well.

You can purchase the BluRay plug-in from Corel and then it will work with your NXT program assuming you have a BluRay drive. AS I remember the cost is not that much---$8 or so.

Is it possible to create the BluRay DVD from (videowave) directly in MYDVD without having to burn an ISO file first ? In other words, is an ISO file required to burn a BluRay DVD ?

MPG vs MP4----- Both mpeg2 and mpeg4 can maintain about the same quality of audio in the encoding process. The mpeg2 uses H262 encoding while mpeg4 uses H264. Though mpeg2 compression is simpler than mpeg4, mpeg4's, mpeg4's compression is an improvement over mpeg2 format. Compared to mpeg2 mpeg4 is a far more versatile encoding format. For this reason I have used MP4 for most all my videowave productions which include video. choose what ever you have at your disposal for your videowave and DVD productions and compare I prefer MP4 !!!

My suggestion for the format to use for a DVD and/or for others that would want to watch it on their phone or ? would be an MP4 video file. I use the free trial program "VLC" to convert many of my video files from my video cameras and have had no problems. If you choose, check the internet for the program VLC and use it for conversions.

What is the format of your video (on your camera, and on the videowave program ? (AVI-MP4-mpeg or ?? ) If it's an AVI or MP4 you can just download it to your tablet and it should play there. If it's in your videowave program it will also play on your computer. And from your videowave program when finished, it can be placed in MyDVD program and play there also. How large is the video (in time not memory) ? Approx. I Hour time max. on a DVD should give good results.

Have no idea why NXT7 won't play your MKV file but as a work around ---- Go on the internet and download the program "VLC". add your MKV file to it and there is an option to convert it to an MP4 file. Then use that MP4 in your MyDVD.

Have no idea of why your other video doesn't play but the one you attached plays fine, audio and video wise.

When you start a new production in Videowave and do quite a bit of work on it you should save it before it gets too large as a dmsm file to a folder of your choice that contains ALL of the photos, music, videos etc. all in the same folder. If it stops for some reason and you want to continue working on it later, go to the folder where you save the original and right click on it and open with videowave as your option. I when I do this I usually look for the "DAT" file associated with my particular production (which will have been saved in that same folder) and delete it. Now when you open up the last saved production it will automatically re-establish a new DAT file. that original production you save will never go away (unless you deliberitly delete it) and should be used where you last saved it.

I do not want to fix the photos, just wanted to take some out and include others and change some of the songs If that's all you want to do Marie, that can be done very easily in Videowave. Just go back and add the original Videowave program you saved and before you sent it to MyDVD. (hopefully you saved it) It will have the extension .DMSM. Removing and/or adding photos in Videowave is simple. So is adding or changing music.

Bottom line Marie... You have to have a separate program (free or otherwise) that has the ability to remove portions of a video !!! A video is a video. to extract certain portions of it requires a program that can do that. And the only FREE one I know of that can do that is "HD Movie maker APP" and can be downloaded from MS IF you are running W10. NOT sure if previous versions of Windows OS can. How large is the video you have that you want edited ? Can you attach it (the MPG you have) to a post so we can take a look at it ?
