10 hours limit

[yaray0]

I'm using X4 version. Sometimes I'm making excatly 10:00:00 length videos and VideoStudio allows me to create only 09:59:59:max_frames length video. It's really annoying, that I have to add this 1 frame in another program. So,

1. Is it possible to break that limit? How?
2. Are there any changes in X5?

I am sorry but I simply don't know. You are the very first person in all my many years on the Board who has asked such a question. You are also the first person I have ever heard of wanting to make a 10 hour movie? Why have you chosen to make such a movie? I cannot imagine any audience willing to sit still for that long. And if so, would it not make more sense to make several movies of shorter length, broken at logical points, which can be shown separately on several occasions?

I hasten to add, I am not being critical... I am just fascinated by the idea...

Well, you're not so up to date with current YouTube fashion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ktbhw0v186Q Hope that clears all . If there is no possibility to break this strange limit (why it is set?), it is a must-add feature in X6!

It appears that it's the same with VS x5, since I inserted a 20 hours worth of episode of a series that I'm following and only the first 9 hours and 42 minutes are imported in the software and the maximum length of the timeline is only 9:59:59.

Good Grief !!! - do people really watch 10 hours of a 1 second loop continuously repeated ?

one minute and I had had far to much

I am glad that I am not up with the current youTube fashion!. What a waste of time & bandwidth!

If this is what VS is used to create maybe X6 should reduce the video length to 1 sec. That seems to be the attention span of people who create and watch something like that

I'm sorry but if your justification for getting VS to handle 10 hour videos is the link to that youtube video, you are not getting my support. I was in software development and your request makes no sense from the perspective of so many other worthwhile features to be added to VS... Al

Hi

As far as I can tell video studios project limit is 10 hours.
The first frame is identified as 00:00:00:00 The last frame of the project being 09:59:59 assuming the video uses 60 fps.

There should be 2160000 frames in 10 hours of video, I think?

I am sure Video Studio is accurate to 10 hours

It seems some people here have some problems with logical thinking. It's not about your whim, it's about beeing a professional. Setting the length limit is just stupid as an idea and professional programs don't have it set for obvious reason. That's all I have to say, I have no more time to waste on a pointless discussion. You want to have more customers - change it in X6. You want to decide for the user what is best for him - do nothing.

If 9:59:59:29 is your last frame (NTSC), then you have 10 hours of video. You start counting the first frame as 0:00:00:00. I think that was one of your concerns in your original post.

Did you really do that!
