Hello

I have found a weird bug (or perhaps I am making a mistake).
I am trying to use Hardcode Times in VTM (first 10 seconds of any file), with a simple matrix of one large picture, and Animate as Single Frame.
If I then run Videonizer and Generate a Screenlist with Always refer to current options/current VTM settings it works fine.

However if I export the Settings, and save the Options then the Hardcode Times are ignored when using the 'Use VTM Options/Settings' from a .vtm/x file' if I try again to Generate a Screenlist within Videonizer.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you,

Could you please provide more details or/and even examples?

I have found an issue, but it is not related to Harcoded Times.

I can't reproduce your case for some reason.
Please specify what exactly is produced in your case.

here is the original file (it is just a funny video tiktok thing i found, but the error reproduces with every file i have tried):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dfg6pcuhww809 ... q.mp4?dl=0

here is the resulting files generated within VTM, with first 10 sec hard coded animation:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/pxey81i2wjxq9 ... q.vtx?dl=0
https://www.dropbox.com/s/wwh4iu975ulpz ... M.mp4?dl=0

i get the exact same results within Videonizer, if i choose the 'always refer to current settings'

however, if i save export options, and export environment settings for videonizer, then i get a different output files:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/psu73ps3dvkj7 ... M.mp4?dl=0

here are my exported settings files, maybe that is where the error is coming in?

Thank you for your post.
Now it is clear what is wrong. It is related to the issue I have found.
Will be fixed in the next release of VTM (because the issue is in VTM Options export).
