A sad reflection on the Studio

Please enlighten me, because I don't get it. I've been using various versions of Magix for years (Video deluxe MX, Movie Edit Pro 2015 Plus, Movie Edit Pro Premium (2022) and I thought I had a handle on movie editing and suddenly, it's a flop. I bought Movie Studio 2025 Suite, paid a lot more and I feel like I got less than I had. Why? I needed a certain effect using Chroma key (masking with a selected color), but I can't find the necessary functionalities in the new purchase. Or maybe they are hidden? In any case, I uninstalled the advertised MEPS2025Suite and went back to MEPPremium. I feel fooled.But... I feel fooled :(

Greetings to all my excellent colleagues who have supported me in the past :)

Hi,

There was a change recently in the Chromakey tool. It's still there. When you click on Chromakey there are now 3 choices. Select Hide color range, then either select the colour or the colour selector and select the colour from the screen. Adjust the parameters as needed.

Thanks Jan CB. As usual you can be counted on. There were probably some upgrades I didn't see. Best regards - Ryszard
