Any way to get more project templates than the ones included

Post by ptbpilot »

I have been using MF7SE for burning discs as most users here feel that it is more stable and it appears to be. My complaint is that the project templates/backgrounds/menu's are very boring, and there are only six of them. Also there are no motion menu's which surprises me.

Are any more menu's available? Is there a way to modify the existing ones?

The only benefit other than stability is the fact that I can save the project to a DVD folder.

I actually liked the menu's in Movie Factory 2010 that came with VS X3. They were very professional and featured motion. They also featured some that were very generic without the cutsie graphics.

Has VS X4 included any changes to these programs?

My guess would be that is because it is an SE version - i.e. free. Those who own the full version of MF may respond with how many templates they have.

I think BlackLab already answered the first part of your question.. about your question "Has VS X4 included any changes to these programs?"

There have been changes with VS X4 most notably the burning module. If you are using VS X4 and wants more template and tutorial, then just visit http://www.photovideolife.com.

If you are interested in using VS X4, then you can download the trial at http://www.corel.com/trials.
