Good afternoon to all. Just thought I would pass on our experience upgrading our new Desktop PC to win11 from 10. All went well and all programs seem to be working ok with just a couple of hiccups at the moment.
1st problem is that we ended up with two registered entries for the same program and as we are only allowed 2, we had to unregister the program on my husbands laptop, then unregister the PC duplicate entry on the venders website then reregistered the copy on the laptop.
2nd problem was that MP4 files which the default program to open and play them was VLC, the file type had altered to open in 7Zip. which has now been rectified.
I am sure tat we will find others as time goes on, but fingers crossed all seems to be working now.
Cheers and a good day to you all. Vicki
As usual not a lot of room for John and I to sit down.
John and I do not do many miles driving nowadays (our age I suppose) that's why we are glad we bought a plug in hybrid a couple of years ago. We charge the battery overnight at our driveway on half price electricity. Sadly our fixed dual price tariff comes to an end in October, so will prices have come down by then one wonders?
Good morning to you, hope fully when you get this problem sorted one of us maybe able to assist you.
Yes if you needed to Eric. You can only export as an MP4 file and I/we either strip out the video using Soundforge Pro14 or Vegas post 19
Good morning to all. just thought I would post this here for anybody who wishes to use a text to speech facility. John and I both use this for different aspects of our video editing and creations. There are other various sources on the internet but we think this one is probably the best we have found. We know others will come up with alternatives, this is just our preference

There is also a good description on YouTube to be found here.....

Eric, John messaged you in another Forum about your comment and his new smartphone as he could not find your comment on that forum. Did you receive it ok? Cheers Vicki
William we watched part two on Friday. fascinating insight. I think the target of 2024 is a bit ambitious. The timber reconstruction was a terrific subject to watch. Whist the presenter is probably highly qualified we did find her a bit OTT at times, and were not impressed by the fit and wearing angle of her hard hat as it was a joke on a building site. Vicki
Looks like I am going to have to abandon MoviePlus sadly. Thanks Eric
Just as a thought has anybody got these codecs and would they work in my program if somebody could email them to me? Cheers Vicki
Good morning Albert sadly the laptop the program was on has had the HDD reformatted so it was ready for sale. So it looks as if its going to be a no no then. Thanks for trying to help. Vicki
Ok so the answer to this is probably a no no. I would like to reinstall the software on my new PC but sadly I understand the codecs needed are not now available. Is there any way I could unlock the codecs and use the program. Cheers Vicki
Alfred thanks for the reply and link. I have downloaded the copytrans utility and all works great. thanks for your help. I looked at the Ms one but there was a few negative views. Cheers Vicki
Good morning to all. I would like to leave my Samsung Galaxy preferred image format as HEIF for quality. I can open these in Affinity Photo but not Irfanview. After looking around the internet it would seen that Irfanview can open these files if I install a download from this site. https://www.copytrans.net/copytransheic/
Before I download and install this has anybody any experience with this site? If not have members got an alternative to this please?
Thanks in advance Vicki.
Good morning William was it successful in finding your file? Vicki
If you only have a C drive look in the upper right of file explorer if you type in *.afpub it should pick up any files with that type name. it works for me on both my C and E drives. Cheers Vicki
Alfred I have downloaded and installed High-Logic MainType will try and get to grips with this program. Bhikkhu Pesala in the other Forum appears to use this program and has done some tutorials on it up on Vimeo. Thanks for your pointers once again. Vicki
Thank you Alfred. Will check these out. Cheers Vicki
Just wondered if any members used a font viewer. If so any recommendations? I have looked at this one but have not decided yet. Cheers Vicki
Thank you both, will check out both of these.
Good morning to all. Its been years since I last used the chart tool in pageplus, is there a video or tutorial on how to use the tool. I have a database that I wish to turn into a chart. Win10 O/S. Cheers Vicki
Eric we have used this track in a video previously and as you say it is a haunting piece of music. We /I often listen to as background music whilst we/I are doing video editing. Cheers Vicki
Ok so for some clarification for Albert and Eric. We all have individual foibles about how we use our PC's. Mine is using the number pad with my mouse for my pin number on the lock screen. Hope that clears things up. Vicki
Thank you all, now sorted. The number pad using the mouse is my lazy way of using the lock screen
