Auto music in x3

Post by Ian Sharpe »

Hi guys, greetings

downloaded trial version of X3.

It is supposed to be a fully working trial, but I cant get access to the automusic smartsound options.

Are they disabled in the trial version??

cheers

No, you should be able to access it. Did you have any errors while installing it? What version of QuickTime do you have installed? VS (SmartSound) seems to have problems with the most current version of QuickTime, VS generally is one or two versions behind. This video tutorial talks a little about using audio and SmartSound Quicktracks.

thanks for the hint.

I have QTime 7, so I uninstalled it & uninstalled X3, then reinstalled X3 but still no go, no QTime either, I woud have thought X3 had its own version of QTime?? . All I have on my audio options is record voice over & rip audio cd, I dont have the automusic tab.

Strange,

maybe email Corel?

Well, if you don't have the Auto Music tab, something messed up on installing. Your download file may be corrupt, you should see this..

Kindly be informed that trial version does not include Content Pack in which Smartsound is located. It is only included in the full version purchased.

Literally the first time I have heard that ... but it would explain a lot! Silly too, but I guess there are licence fees involved with SmartSound, just as there are with Dolby...
