How install template bundles & graphics pack faster

[sheng-si]

After installation VS2022 I see some maps on/in my desktop: GraphicsPack and 3 template bundles, with a total of 115 exe-files. It looks if have to install them one by one. Each of them with the steps Language-Accept licence a.s.o. A lot of work.

I search forum and facebookgroup but it looks like there is NO faster way to install them
Then I saw after installing a few Template files, that each exe makes a new map in VSP Template with a lot of the same placeholder files.

Is there a quicker solution possible.
If not, is there somewhere an explanation about the content of each template. Before I installa a lot of templates I am not going to use.

Unfortunately there is no quick way to install these packs and no way to preview without first installing
These 4 packs are quite old, some of the content is out of date.

The Graphics pack is probably the easiest to install as its contents, images, video samples are saved to a folder on our desktop, from there we can import to the media library. I create a new library page/folder within the Graphics gallery.

The 3 Templates packs are also old and do need a makeover by Corel / Alludo as some of these templates contain flash files (swf), you can see one of those files in the image you attached to your post.
Later in the day I should be able to say which templates contain the swf files, I do not see any point in installing those.

Installing the packs extracts their content to folders on our desktop, each exe file being installed individually, no quick way around this process and as you know are saved to the VSP Templates folder. They should be available to use from the Templates gallery.

As I say these are old, I believe last updated from Video Studio X10

Thnx Will be great if you tell which templates contains swf files. But will be also lot of work for you I suppose.
So I can also sometime just install the files and after that remove the maps with swf files. I am not in a hurry already 72 years So have a lot of time.
There are sometimes more strange things with corel programs, not updating to newer stuff.

I searched and saw there are programs to convert SWF files a.o. VLC player. Then they will be converted in MP4 files

Hi
No problem, a few years ago I went through most if not all these templates, saved most to my pc, I just needed to find them?
I have also uploaded the templates to my One Drive, I believe these have the SWF files removed you can download from here, may save you a little time.

By the way Flash (SWF) are no longer supported by Microsoft so I doubt you will find a converter, besides they used a transparent background, I did convert some to Mov using Alpha channel, as I say a few years ago now.

I tried some online/offline programs, but it is not possible to convert one of the swf files to mp4 file.

I did say that as Flash is no longer used by Microsoft.

I do have some mov files converted from swf but they do not add that much to the template so probabily not worth the effort.

Most of the templates being swf free
Let me know which swf files you are trying to convert and I will look / search my pc for the mov

I just tried 014 --- and 015_HD-project_object01.swf just to see what happened and what it contains.
Curiosiy you can say.
Treid VLC on pc and some online. They make a mp4 file 1 kb.
And one says there is a fault in the file.
As it is what you describe: Do not add much, then maybe better I forget the hole swf thing.

It is a bit nearby future I want to do more with VS.
Now I use it only to maken subtitles under some instruction videos about Paintshop, mostly because I do not have a speaker in the pc and also find it easier to read in stead of listening.
One of them I have also translate the subtitles with google in Dutch, my native language.

Hi
This is a Mov file converted from the SWF, it is 6 small heart shapes floating about the frames.
It gives you an example of what the SWF's were like, some yes have more content, but generally were a background effect.
