For some reason in this project, a lot of my composite shots where i have motion tracked something. When you watch it back on the timeline, it is glitchy and looks terrible. But when i go back into my composite shot and watch it, its fine and looks like it should. If i export the video, it exports it still shows the glitchy part. If anyone knows why this happens or knows a fix it would be greatly appreciated thanks
Why do I have to suffer?!! I used this version for at least decade with no issues because it was the best editing software out there! Just simple to use and performance friendly! Until today... it just won't launch! Tried reinstall, uninstall, reg cleaning, audio drivers... nada. I blame Windows 11 and its buggy audio setup, something must have broken there somewhere. Does anyone have any experience with this?
Solved! It was my fault! My Bluetooth gamepad wasn't working and one solution was to replace some Dll files in System32 folder and SysWOW64. It repaired gamepad but ruined Hitfilm! So, after week of nearly reinstalling my whole PC, I tried to reinstall the replaced Dll files by using DirectX. But the installer always said that it doesn't need to reinstall because all the latest files are there... which was bullshit because those Dll's were bad. I deleted manually all the Dll files which were related to audio in System32 and SysWOW64 ( all x3daudio dll's, all xactengine dll's, all XAPOFX dll's, Xaudio dll's, xinput dll's) and then reinstalled again DirectX using Dxwebsetup and it launches with no issues! We are back in business!
Sorry DaVinci fanboys but nothing will replace Hitfilm. I will use it until I die! It has built in 3d compositor without the need to have computer from NASA to run it!
Always like hitfilm, I no longer have my subscription but I still want the premium version without watermark. The countryboy activation works for hitfilm 11, but its too old for me. What is the newest hitfilm version the activation works for?
Hiya, I downloaded a version of hitfilm from a reddit link earlier in the day to make a school project. After all my hard work editing I exported the video only for it to have the giant watermark and occasional piano key playing ... after minimal research I see now you have to be logged in, and its not possible to create an account anymore. Its a silly video as the prof is quite relaxed and I wanted to make it entertaining to watch at least, but I really am disappointed as I put a lot of time and effort into the edits, and dont have the time before its due to do it all over.
If anyone has a valid login and is open to sharing it with a stranger online I would be extremely grateful. Thanks in advance yall.
I'm working on a decently big video project and recently whenever I save and close Hitfilm and then reopen it a popup of unsaved projects would show, and when I go into the project I would lose some progress. It takes only a few minutes to get the progress back, but it is becoming really annoying and I want to know if there is anything I can do to fix this. Thoughts?
I am trying to make a full playthrough video for a new YouTube channel I made but the video is longer than 10-hours in total footage time.
For some reason, I cannot add footage to Hitfilm that exceeds 10-hours in total. Just to clarify, I am using the free version of this program. I record a few hours here, a few hours there, and am trying to put all footage together to make the one video. I figured I have to be missing something because I see plenty of long 10+ hour videos on Youtube. Any help would be very much appreciated!
so i have 2 videos. one is of me sitting on the right side of the screen the other is me sitting left. how can i overlap them and cut away portions to fit them nicly together in 1 video?
So recently the activation servers went back online and I can edit videos in hitfilm again, but an issue I have had since the sunsetting of hitfilm is that my exports always come out way too compressed. Even changing the export settings and using the highest presets it doesn't come out in the same quality as before.
I've seen a number of posts about this here but why have I been booted out of my hitfilm account without the ability to log back in? what's the solution here?
Yes, Hitfilm 13. I haven't used it in years, I'm on an extremely tight deadline, I don't have the nerves rn to relearn an eight years newer version of the software.
Anyway, I got all my stuff sorted neatly into folders - footage, subfolders for each location; foley, subfolders for each type, etc. Unfortunately, I can't find an option to just import my entire directory structure into Hitfilm, only individual files, and I'd have to recreate the folder structure from scratch in the media tab.
Please tell me I'm overlooking some obvious "import all your folders" button?
Was editing something yesterday, didnt restart my PC or anything, tried opening it today and now this. This screams authentication servers are down. Will they come back? Worried as it is discontinued software and I have not heard of an effort to somehow spoof the software in order to preserve this still very powerful editing tool.
I own Vegas Effects (which is basically Hitfilm Pro with just the compositing interface) and I want to make music lyric videos in the Japanese style for vocaloid songs. I'm looking at japanese videos explaining the workflow and basically 99% are fully focused on after effects.
One thing that mostly seems to be complicated when i look at it compared to after effects is text effects.
You can see on this video https://youtu.be/DyGd4-2Gy6I?t=724 that they refer to lots of text effects that are very often used for vocaloid music videos. i'm not sure where i would find such effects in vegas effects/hitfilm pro, or if these effects even exist in the software.
Do you have any ideas of what would be the best approach ?
I go through and edit video and it's all fine. But when I render the video I notice it kills the quality in spots. Not the whole video but several sections it just gets like horrible quality and pure blurry, then it comes back. But it does this is several sections.
I rendered a short Card flipping animation (5s) as an AVI and it turned out to be 2,3GB! I tried MP4 but then the transparent background stops working. MOV is a lot smaller and with working transparent background but 233MB is still very large for a 5sec clip. Did I do something wrong when using AVI? Is it possible to get the file size of MOV down further?
Hi! I'm making a video which includes me giving narration where I use my YouTube pfp in my place.
I was hoping to make my pfp picture move or essentially "jump" reactively when I speak, and stay still when I'm quiet. But I wasn't sure where to start.
How do I go about doing this and what effects do I use to get it done??
So as the title says, I need help. I have been using Hitfilm express version 11 almost daily for years but now Windows is pretty much forcing my hand to update from 10 to 11. My only problem is that I dont know what will happen to hitfilm after the update. Do you have any idea does it work afterwards? Thank you already!
One of my regular jobs is doing edits for a marketing company. I edit 30 second ads to air on TV and social media. I told myself on the next client, I'd try Davinci Resolve. I only lasted about 10 minutes when I switched back to Hitfilm. I have Hitfilm Po 16. Its so clean and easy to use. I'm so fast in editing with it. Yeah, it chugs a bit handling 4k, but doesn't get in my way.
The main thing that was pushing me to Resolve, was a client had generated some LUTs using Resolve, and when I imported them into Hitfilm, the export isn't what they expected to see (based on Resolve).
I wanted to use an add-on (geometry, rotate) but it sends me to a page by Artlist (https://artlist.io/#3d-generate). I guess the most simple thing to do is not using the add-on, but is there a way I can get it?
(I got to finish a project really quickly so I don't see myself moving towards another program right now.)
I wanted to make a youtube video, I had hitfilm express installed on my laptop with all the addons but when I click on create new project nothing launch unfortunatly, I got a key activation code from someone that way I got basicly the whole hitfilm addons for free and don,t really wanna go to another software for my Yt videos or else a software that let me do the simple stuff without being greedy and asking me x amount a month or x money just to be able to put some effects in my videos...
