Export Settings Differ from Film Settings? - MEP14

I keep getting an export setting message when I try to export a video...

MAGIX Movie Edit Pro
  Export didn't do this when I first installed MEP14, and I was wondering how I can get it back to the factory settings when I create a new movie. Or at least how it is that I can get the export and movie settings to "match" so that I don't get this error message, and so that my movies don't play back at the wrong speed etc...

Thank you,

I'm having the same issue in MEP15Plus.
I believe my issue is with the ratio. all the files in my video are 16:9, i had the export settings on 16:9 also. but it rendered at 4:3.

you can reset your program under help I believe. at the bottom it should say 'reset to factory defaults' or something similar.

I will post again if I get this figured out on my end. I also reset my HD video cam to it's factory defaults also. I had already exported about 6 or 7 movies with out this error code coming up.

I can't believe there's not a freakin answer to this on the entire internet.

Short answer: file>settings

If those settings are the same as the export settings then no error message

Easy to figure out but there's enough crap with this program to get you so pissed/tired you bypass the solution and I'll tell you why... programmers. Have an artist use your damn program before you push it to the shelf for poor bastards to purchase!

I mean, the fricken error message vaugly tells us the problem but NO SOLUTION. The wording in the error message gives NOTHING in the help files. What the hell!!! why can't it say, "your settings can be found in file/settings either adjust them there or make the export settings match to avoid the incompatablity."

 

By the way, I've pushed through this issue before and it didn't matter but right now my audio is coming out WAY off and it's because the damn preview video is dead wrong. Not to mention the audio peak's are freakin useless. Took it a good 10 mins to make audio peeks and there's not even enough to match audio. I should get a refund!

I'm having the same problem with the same Export settings message and  after having successfully made a couple DVD's already, now I can only get the sound with the opening menu and no video at all when I burn a DVD and play it on our player.

I sure hope we can this resolved.  I'm thinking of uninstalling the software and then reinstalling it again, thinking maybe something I did along the way changed some settings somewhere that I can't find.

Please include me when/if you find an answer --right now I've wasted good money and can't use the program at all, let alone the time trying to solve the issue.  Thanks:

I spent 2½ hours yesterday at Best Buy getting help with this problem.  When they reset to the default settings, then when the window opens for AVCHD burning and they opened the Encoder settings it had defaulted to a PAL setting which they knew was a European setting and felt it was because MAGIX is a European country.  So one Geek Squad guy determined that my Canon point-and-shoot camera that also makes videos in 1080 is set at 24 frames per second/minute(? - I'm not knowledgable about this stuff).  So to burn a DVD that will play on a Blu-ray player they had to choose the Preset: AVCHD 1920x1080p24.  The NTSC and the other faster AVCHD 1920x1080 settings wouldn't work with my camera's videos.  So now I still get the message about "The Export settings differ from the movie settings..." and that continues that they "may be positioned incorrectly in your movie or may be played with black stripes or wobble..."  but I can choose 'Ignore' and the DVD burns and plays fine on both our Blu-ray player as well as our older DVD player.  There is an option with that message to choose 'Do not show this again' but I still hesitate to choose that and figure I'll just continue to choose 'Ignore'.

I don't know if this will help anyone else.  Out of the 11 options of Encoder settings, I had no knowledge what any of them meant nor were they explained in the manual that came with this software.  I would never ever have been able to figure any of this out myself.  So I am very pleased with the Geeks at Best Buy and their time to help me.  Using the MAGIX software to make slideshows and 'fancy up' videos with Fades and Effects is fairly easy to figure out and I've found I can create some pretty impressive stuff for a non-techie.  Hope this is some help to others so they can enjoy and use their MAGIX software and overcome their problems too.
