I use Photostory Deluxe 2015 for Windows 7. Slideshow on a PC running OK. After burning or exporting the 3D Stereo and transitions are displayed incorrectly as a black area. Burning a DVD PAL standard, standard 2D. I tried various settings with the same result. I do not know what the problem is.
I have reported the same problem to Magix (Germany) about the anomoly when loading a saved version of my project but find that when playing the rendered DVD, it is not the version that is loaded and displayed on the PC monitor.
There is definately another problem with the Burning section in Photostory 2015 Deluxe. I have had communication from Magix (Germany) who have been very prompt is replying but it would appear that the Standard DVD PAL standard burning Codec is not that good in rendering the video content of the slide show. Their words not mine!!!. They have suggested burning in H264 HD mpeg 4., which is not compatible with my DVD recorder/player.
I will be contacting the UK technical section and see if they can come up with a patch to correct this problem ,which completly spoils the complete, otherwise excellent slide/movie software program
Hi
. . . . After burning or exporting the 3D Stereo and transitions are displayed incorrectly as a black area. Burning a DVD PAL standard, standard 2D. I tried various settings with the same result . . . .
Are the 3D objects on the timeline 3D video or images or are you creating using left / right pairs of video or still images?
What format are you exporting to and which 3D settings are you using?
. . . . They have suggested burning in H264 HD mpeg 4., which is not compatible with my DVD recorder/player. . . . .
DVD only supports Anaglyph 3D (red / cyan glasses).
To support the other 3D formats ie Shutter mode, Side by Side and Polarised you must use mp4 HD or burn to Blu-Ray disc - these have the higher bitrates and framerates (50 - 200 fps) required for smooth 3D playback.
