Project Templates

[smithgt]

I've a batch of videos that I'd like to edit and subsequently upload.

It is possible to create a sort of project template that has the same title screens, transitions, and a final end credits?

What I've been doing to date is just copying the last project and changing the data manually.

yes - when you have created your project click on 'File' and choose "Export as template"

If you look at the many project templates supplied with your VideoStudio programme you will see that they use 'placeholders' (just jpegs with large numbers on) to hold items in place and you just exchange them for your videos or photos to make the template your video project. You can use those they are on your hard drive or you could just continue as you are now changing whatever was in there when you saved it as a template. the numbered placeholders do not appear by default in your libraries but it is simple to import them - on my PC they are stored in c:\program files (x86)\corel\corel videostudio pro x4\editingstyle\image\

to use project templates just click on the 'Instant Project' icon under the preview screen - that looks like a magic wand waving over a film frame - and you will find yours under the 'Custom' drop down.

Hi
Welcome to the forums

There is no automatic way of changing the video content of your projects, the project template option described by Brian will preserve your edits, but the templates need a manual approach to replace the files/placeholders.

To replace a Video clip drag the new clip from the library, (it must be dragged from the library) position over the clip to be replaced, press the Ctrl key, drop the clip.
