Hollywood FX

Thanks sjj1805, I did a reinstall but still the same, I have Pinnacle Hollywood FX plus 4.5 for pinnicle studio version 7.

Is there another version of FX that I should be looking for, when I say a stand alone programme, I have yet to load video into it and make a transition, look like it needs to be within an editing application.

I will play with for a bit longer, then its an uninstall and back into the cupboard.

Please click here -->

so that we can then view your system specifications.

Whilst it works perfectly on my XP systems I have discovered that I also get the "Unable to start license tool program" error when attempting to use it with Vista. I think it is most likely that Hollywood FX 4.5 Gold is not compatible with Vista.

Thanks Steve, will get on to this, at the moment I am trying to run on a laptop under XP Pro, this has a Sempron(tm) Processor 3400+ and DirectX 9.0c.

I havent tried it on the my desktop, XP home service pack2, athlon 2k processor, this will be my next move.

I am half convinced that FX is looking for something from pinacle studio7, aaargh......

Steve, Danny,

Thats exactly wot I get, Now I get it on both computers, laptop under XP pro and desktop under XP home.

Is there a way of editing the plugin ? so it makes the correct calls !!

Danny,
I dont think it works with Vista.

MickBoy,
It works OK on my copies of XP, just installed it in the normal manner then unzip the plug in to the vfx directory.

I so used to use the "p" app and so despise it to this day, that I am glad that you can zap that part of their app into use into Ulead. Hi Five bud!

It's a long sorry story.. ahem

Hi Steve,
Thank you

I have Boris Factory, Burger, and FXBeench. Does they have another more FX?

You can take a look at these two links, I know Boris Factory 1.0 and also the Burger transitions work great on Vista but haven't tried any of the others.

I looked that Hollywood FX Pro and HollyFX 6 volume 1, 2, and 3. Will they work with Ulead US11 /Windows Vista?

The only version that I know works with any version of VideoStudio / MediaStudio is Hollywood FX Gold 4.5
- later versions do not work to my knowledge - and it only works with XP.

It appears that Holywood FX Gold 4.5 does NOT work with Vista.
