How to Use Colorfast

Post by dananelson »

Hello. I just purchased/downloaded X6 Ultimate. I purchased the Ultimate version because I wanted to use Colorfast, but I can't figure out how to access the Colorfast features. I installed all extra programs when I ran the "Bonus" installation program.

I can't find any kind of tutorial online for how to access Colorfast in Videostudio. My Ultimate program looks exactly like the Pro trial version that I installed yesterday, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

I have solved my problem, and I thought I'd share the solution in case others have the same issue:

When I clicked on the filters tab, only some of the NewBlue filters were appearing. If I tried to search for Colorfast using the drop-down menu in the upper left corner (where default is "all"), there was a title for NewBlue Colorfast, but no icons displayed below. I ended up uninstalling and then reinstalling the full program, and this did the trick. Now, when I'm in the filters tab, I can find the ColorFast icon.

For those new to videostudio, you can drag the colorfast icon to the clip you want to apply it to. With the clip selected, click on Options (blue tab on right side of screen). In the Attribute tab, you will see Colorfast listed. Make sure Colorfast is selected, then click on "Customize Filter" and you will see the Colorfast screen appear.

Hi

Yes for some reason some users have problems with seeing newly installed filters in the library.
One option would be to reset the program

How to manually reset Corel® VideoStudio Pro X6 to Default Settings

This rebuilds the libraries and hopefully populate them with the missing filters.



There is another post regarding the Ok and Cancel buttons, the Colourfast panel is quite large, the bottom section being obscured unless you have a large monitor.

Anyway glad you managed to locate the filters.

Tip:- double click the clip in the timeline to open the “options” panel
