Super slow motion

Can VSX7 create a simulated super slow motion effect like this

To get that level of quality slow motion, you need probably two things. One is to capture the action with very high frame-rates. And two, use software that adds high quality carefully interpolated frames in between each frame. Video Studio does not do this.

I have done this using a 24fps clip, not really very fast frame-rate, where I added many frames in between each frame. The clip was of a waterfall which is not as hard as the clip you linked. It worked pretty well, but it was a lot of work and a lot of time. I did it mostly to learn how this is done... Al

I agree that VS can't do it properly. I bought an excellent proDAD program called Respeedr which does it beautifully and without too much of a learning curve. Unfortunately, it is not particularly cheap (US$99). I bought it when it first appeared and they had a special introductory price.

The clip you supplied was in itself jerky and it was easy to see the frame jump.

If you are seriously into slow motion, first get a camera that does Slo-Mo such as the Panasonic HC-V750 (757), the Slo-Mo produces a file at 1/2 speed and, in playback mode, a file at 1/4 speed. This is a good starting point for VS X7 to slow the footage down especially in the UK version it records at 100 fps.
Following the installation of Service Pack 1, X7 will happily mix MP4 and AVCHD files and I have produced videos with Slo-Mo incorporated in them.

Hi, I have a related question: how can VideoStudio 6 be made to display a high frame rate movie clip at 25 fps so that it appears as nice3 smooth slow motion?
I have a GoPro Hero4 which records 1920x1080 at 120 fps. Inserting this into VideoSudio 6, it tries to play it at full speed 120 fps -- and it's jerky, perhaps because it can't process all the video data at that rate or perhaps because it's trying to convert it to the project's frame rate, I don't know. I've tried using the variable speed control and setting it to 20% speed, and that certainly slows it down but it's still very jerky even when rendered and clearly isn't displaying all the original frames at 25/sec. Is there any way VideoStudio 6 can be persuaded to think that the 120 fps clip should be shown at 25 fps, ie at approx 1/5 of real-life speed?
