The only way this can be done is having one image on the main track the second on the overlay track. UVS only provides 2 video tracks. However a workaround would be to place your video on the main track, photo#1 on the overlay, render this. Then open a new project bring in the video you just rendered, placing it on the main track. Then place your second photo on the overlay track.

Media Studio Pro has unlimited tracks so this could be done easily with it....

Maybe I'm missing something? What exactly do you hope to see when the clip is rendered?

You can also overlay your images and make parts of each image transparent. however, I feel you would be much better off, and in better control, if you did that in an image editing program like PI

Well I think I made an assumption as to what director18 is trying to do, and I'm probably wrong..
I think director18 wants to have 2 or more images overlayed on a video, kinda like PIP, but with more then one image...

Is this the type of effect we're talking about?

(Just so happened I was working on this tonight and took a time out...

)

This actually has two PIPs, both videos. The audio is from the guy at the podium. Just ran the overlay effect twice. The first was the speaker placed on the main screen. Creaded video file. Then on to that file, overlayed the player carrying the other player off the field. Pretty straighforward process.

(Just to have the image make some sense: This video is being created for our rugby club's windup in November. The clip shown here is from a 1995 VHS tape of our then president talking about our move to new pitches. He's yattering away about our old fields having been used for both games and practices. As of late 1996, we have had two pitches:one for games only and one for practice and the occasional game. Just thought you'd like to know.)
