If Show tracking path is selected, the tracking path is displayed and highlighted once the tracking process is completed. The video is played as the tracking path is generated. You can adjust the shape and size of the tracker by dragging the corner nodes. Note: If you want to select a larger area, click the Set tracker as area button in Tracker type. The area is magnified to give you a closer view of your selection. In the example, the tracker is dragged to the face of the boy.

COREL VIDEO STUDIO X9 REMOVE TRACKER SOFTWARE
Final verdictĪlthough VideoStudio may feel antiquated, and its timeline is constraining and works the wrong way round - if you’re used to other similar software - it comes with a number of really good ideas and clever implementations. It’s a great way to create something quick without agonising over the details - although you can also fine tune every aspect of the edit, should you want to. Those clips can be organised by date, location, even people, and the video can be made to the length of a music file, should you wish. It’s a way for VideoStudio to create a short film for you, based on the clips you give it. It has presets for a list of GoPro cameras, but VideoStudio also offers you the ability to change the parameters yourself to achieve the perfect result.Ī fun new addition: let VideoStudio do the heavy lifting of creating a video for you (Image credit: Corel) New for 2020Īs always, the new 2020 version brings some additional titles and blend modes, and some tools have been improved, such as video masking, but the feature we liked most is called Highlight Reel. If you work with cameras with fish-eyed lenses, you’ll definitely appreciate the Lens Correction tools. This is also the place to find all the effects you’ve added to a clip - by default you can only add one at a time, but a simple untick will allow you to cram in as many as you fancy. This is where you can apply some colour correction, or change some of the basic parameters like creating a pan & zoom effect across your photo or video. These are all useful timesaving tools.Īny changes you wish to apply to a clip can be done via the Options Panel. There are even Smart Guide Alignments to make it easy to position a clip to the centre, and an aspect ratio button to resize a clip or photo with the click of a menu. The Viewer Window has a few good tricks up its sleeves too: you can resize clips, skew them, crop them, and move them around directly from there. This works very well and allows you to retime a clip to suit the exact duration you need with ease.
One feature we quite liked was the ability to alter the speed of a clip by altering its length directly in the timeline simply by holding down the Shift key and dragging its edges. The list of effects is extremely long, and the fact the thumbnails all look the same from a distance until you mouse over them, makes it tricky to find the right one you want (Image credit: Corel) Effects and transitions As such, we wouldn’t call this editing platform “Pro”. Worse still, you can’t move clips between the overlay and the primary video layers. It is possible to increase that overlay’s size so it takes up the whole space, but that’s very convoluted. Yes, you can add a clip to a second layer, but it’s treated as a picture-in-picture overlay, where the clip is shrunk and placed in the corner of the screen. Something which is quite limiting, especially for a package advertising itself as “Pro” or “Ultimate”, is the inability to properly work with multiple layers of video. It can be confusing, especially at first, but you do eventually get used to it. In VideoStudio, it’s the opposite: the top track is the main video track, and to place a clip over it you have to add it to the track beneath the main one. Therefore, usually, if you place a video clip on a track above the current one, it will obscure the first clip. Usually, layers reflect how the real world works: put a piece of paper on top of another and you can no longer see the sheet that’s now under it. One thing which takes a while to get used to if you’re used to editing video with other software packages is the fact that the layer concept is reversed. The editing feels familiar yet also different due to the overlay tracks being displayed underneath rather than above the primary layer (Image credit: Corel)
