X4pro attaching identifier to moving object

Post by Carroll »

Members

Is it possible to attach an identify marker or title to a moving object in Video Studio X4 PRO. I video trains. As the train comes toward me in the video I would like to attach the number of the diesel and type to it and each unit behind it ,if there are any. As it comes closer the marker gets bigger and more readable then, as the diesel disappears from view it's marker goes with it and the next one does the same thing, then the next.

For example, during NASCAR races an identifying marker, showing the drivers name and car number, is applied on screen and stay "attached" to the car as it travels through traffic around the raceway until it's turned off.

I don't know if it will look good or not but I would like to try it. Is that possible or have I gone way beyond VS x4 pro's capability?

It can be done, but manually. You need to do the work with the text changes you describe. I am not aware of any automatic way to do this with any consumer program... Al

Thank you Al

I hoped I wasn't asking to much of VSX4 but, never hurts to ask the experts. I guess I'll pass on the manual part too.
Appreciate the help.
