No Display In Video Trimmer

[grm]

Hello Everyone,

I am attempting to use the Video Trimmer found in Video Wave. I am using Roxio Creator 2010.

 

I have been using Roxio and editing my home videos for a couple of years now. I have a Cannon FS 22 camcorder. The clips are Mpeg 2 format. I started another project this morning, and after adding my video clips in Video Wave ( Edit Video Advanced Tab)I wanted to speed-up one of the clips. I double clicked the clip and brought up the Video Trimmer Window. I then advanced the speed to +4 and clicked the OK button. I ran the clip I had just changed and it worked great.

 

I then went to another clip that I wanted to do some trimming on, however when the Video Trimmer window opened, the preview screen was black. The start and end window screens on the upper left and right corners both had the proper pictures for the beginning and end of the clip, and you could adjust both start and end by the dial controls, but the clip would not play in the preview window, nor did any of the controls for it work.

 

I then "saved as" and closed the application, restarted my computer and went back to see if anything had changed. It had not. I then added a clip that I had captured from the T.V. (avi format)and much to my surprise the Video Trimmer window opened and the clip appeared in the preview window as it should and all worked fine. I closed the Trimmer window and then chose one of my camcorder clips and reopened it. The Trimmer window did not display the clip in the preview window.

 

The Trimmer works with everything I put in it except for Mpeg or MOV. files. I don't know what happened. It has always worked fine since I installed this version.

 

I would be very grateful to anyone that could help me. GRM

Funny. there has been a few other recent posts on this same issue. It appears that something may have been updated or changed that caused the problem. Does clearing the proxy files by going to the top menu, tools/options/Clear help?

 

 

Do you need to use the video trimmer or can you use the split process to do the cuts and then the trimmer to change the speed? I just tried that and it would seem to work.

I cleared the proxy files , but no help. I can use the method that you suggested, but it would be quicker with the trimmer. Funny, a few months ago I updated the Disk Image loader. From then until today, every time I would open the Disk Image loader, I would get a window that said " Disk Image Loader Driver was updated. The new version will be used after the next restart." I have restarted several times since, but the message continues to display each time it is opened. Then this morning, after the problem with the Trimmer started, I opened the Disk Image loader, and there is no message about the update. I surely do not know if the two are related but it seems odd to me.

 

I thank you for your reply Sknis. You and others have helped in the past and I hope you can figure out what the problem is this time. I have also tried changing to software through tools/options but to no avail. Thanks again and I will keep checking and hoping. GRM

What Disc Image Loader driver did you update? There are no updates for the Roxio Image Loader.

Hi Myguggi,

The app. that is on the bottom right hand of the home page of Creator 2010 (Load Disc Image). I opened it a couple of months ago and it said there was an available update so I installed it. All works well with it, in fact I used it this morning to check out a production I had just finished. However I did get the window that the loader driver was updated and would be used after the next restart. Thought that window had gone away.
