VS10+ Movie Wizard Themes

Post by tommytucker »

I have about seven Slideshow and seven Home Movie wizard theme templates. I could have sworn there were some like Speed, Sports, etc before I had to reinstall 10+. How many templates do you folks have in the Wizard theme choice for slideshow and home movie? Can you import and use the different WVS and associated files in the Editing Styles, General, NTSC folders and such from VS9 to get 10+ to recognize and use those themes? Seems a shame not to be able to use previous themes I had in 9. Thanks!
Update: Okay I have TEN theme templates in Slideshow and TEN in Home Movie. What puzzles me is that I recently using 10+ made a project using the Sports and the Speed and MTV themes, so I figure those must have been accessible from 10+. Any ideas would be appreciated or if someone can just confirm the number of templates in Movie Wizard on their version of 10+. Thanks!

The Movie Wizard Themes are *.DAT files, which are basically instructions on what images, overlays, decorations, ect., to use with your clips.

If you still have VS9 installed, create a short video using the Movie Wizard, and when it dumps the creation into the editor look at all the elements that are used. Most, if not all are found in VS contents. The Movie Wizard just takes care of placing them, maybe cutting a short segment of your video clip to use as the "intro", adding some text, masks and so on. All of those elements used are on your system, found under the ..\Ulead Systems\VS 9.0 or 10.0\Samples folders. You could reconstruct what the Movie Wizard does, in the Editor.

I will agree that it would be great if they included an option in the Movie Wizard to import or use templates from earlier versions.
