Yes, I mean green screen and blue screen backgrounds; even professionally made green screen clips are impossible to key correctly. Before the key is done MvP has washed out the subject or pixilated so badly it's worthless. Having said that, it's the only real complaint I have about the program and I do have a workaround.

I use MoviePlusX6 on a weekly basis to create videos for fraternal clubs, averaging 8-10 minutes each for show on their TVs, via SD card or email. They are a compilation of stock videos (subscription), a little smartphone video, and graphics I create in Photoshop. Fortunately, because they are used in bars and social rooms where TV sound would be distracting, I don't have to fool with audio unless there is a companion video for a club's website or Youtube channel.

MoviePlus handles most tasks flawlessly, although it tends to crash during intense work, so I back up frequently and restart the program many times in the editing process. MoviePlus does not handle ChomaKey well enough to use. So I use one of the programs mentioned below when ChromaKeying is required and import the resulting file back to MvP.

I've tried other programs like Premiere/Sony-Magix/PowerDirector but find the interfaces confusing and with many more bells and whistles than I need (AFAIK). I have DaVicni Resolve and if I can become semi-proficient with it I may move away from MoviePlus, but that's a way down the road.

I'm in the U.S. and have used R4L.com (Register4Less) for many years to host WebPlus sites. I believe they are located in Toronto. The prices are very reasonable and the customer service is outstanding. I've moved on from WebPlus to WYSIWYG WebBUILDER and still use R4L for sites built with that program.

I really enjoyed your video Eric and can imagine your frustration as you tried to time the emergence. Very nice closeup work.

Sounds like you have Clean Design toggled on. View>Clean Design and click it or select it from the toolbar and the guidelines should appear.

I'm stumped. I went into PagePlusx9's calendar events>properties (19  Holiday_*.ics files)>security and made sure the administrator has all permissions. But still, when I try to modify a calendar event, it says "this iCalednar is protected".

I can confirm that unlock codes are required for MvPX5 and that I don't have them, but do have the X5 program and patch files. Without the codes though, why bother?

A Google search for website security check & malware scanner returns several sites. I'm sure money is involved once something is found that needs to be cleaned.

First though, do you have a backup that predates the infected site? If so, try uploading that and then run one of the checks.

Have you tried Tools>Color Scheme Designer or, perhaps, Tools>Palette Manager?

Google didn't put that code on your page, you did when you pasted the HTML into the <body> section of the page instead of the <head> section. Open the page, including a master page,and look at each HTML source box for the Google verification code. The HTML source dialog box has tick box for paste into HEAD  and paste into BODY, tick HEAD.

The above works with WPx8, I don't have x6 installed.

Watching this makes me wonder how long it took, and frankly how the processes were conceived, to engineer (design?) and actually build the various machines that do the machining, bending, forming, suction, pressing, etc.  I think those guys and gals are the unsung heroes of the industrial age.

Alfred, I did neglect to tick that box, but I uninstalled the program using Revo Uninstaller, taking care to remove all traces of PPx9. To the best of my knowledge that ensured a clean re-install of PPx9. Since text boxes still open with 2 columns, the problem remains after the reinstall. I'm happy with x6 so I'm not going to worry about the x9 version any longer.

Well, that was a bummer. I did Save Default Settings after changing the text frame object to one column but it didn't take. I uninstalled the program (after resetting it failed to fix the issue) and the 2-column text frame is still the default. I said the hell with it and reinstalled PPx6 which is working just fine.

Thanks anyway Geoff.

using updated PPx9. This irritation just began in the last few days, open a new standard text frame and it has two columns. I only want one column and if I want more, I use the Text Frame dialog.

I deleted one column and tried used Tools>Default Settings, but that didn't change anything and new text boxes continue to open with two columns.

Suggestions and solutions appreciated.

Update. Exited PPx9 and restarted it and the missing icons have appeared. Problem is fixed, guess it was a re-start gremlin.

I have been using PPx6 for many years despite having a copy of x9. Now that I've switched to x9 I have the problem shown in the subject line. I opened a calendar created in x6, saved and reopened it in x9 but the calendar table layer itself is locked and I don't see how to get the icons back to unlock it. Thanks.

I host many of my sites on R4L.com where they offer a domain name (or bring your own) and 10 Mb space with email aliases for U.S.$16 annually. Not free but pretty close. And no requirement to use any particular software, just don't make it a big site for that price.  I despise Facebook and don't use it.

Thanks Gordon. After some searching I found a similar model on eBay that should do the trick.

What is the name and brand of the device that holds both your camera and the gimbal? The G45 name is clear on the gimbal, but not the holder. Seems to be a great way  to get both the big picture and some detail a at the same time. I have a DJI Osmo 3-axis gimbal for phones.  Thanks.
