Lex,

You _can_ update from latter Operating Systems to a newer version but you cannot go down/backward to a previous OS Version without performing a clean install (wiping all video/audio data).

I understand you have not had this issue with SE8 -- but can you please confirm that you have entered footage into a project with the same aspect ratio (and one that was set on that particular aspect ratio from the start of that project) ?

Regards,
Chet

Still hopeful that someone will come up with an answer to this problem. It is hopeless trying to edit without being able to add even a simple crossover transition.

I spoke to the ever helpful Mike at Dalco recently and he confirmed that the problem is known to be occurring in the system but, so far, no one has been able to come up with a definitive solution to what I believe is a major problem.

Hi Dixons
I had a similar problem with stills,everytime i tried it would letterbox either in 4.3 or 16.9 neither of which was mixed.

Mike came up with a soloution which worked and it may adapt to your problem a bit more work than for stills.

For the stills i split 2 or 3 seconds of the start which i want as a still then use Sharpen (on the lowest setting 1) then the still function and it's spot on.

So try and split say 5 seconds of the end of your footage and the same of the start of the next piece apply Sharpen to both then add them back to the SB then apply the crossfade a lot easier to do than write.

Regarding this strange issue that has affected some of us - I have been working on and off but have not determined a solid fix on this odd issue with the effects/transitions. I have heard from other colleagues who have experienced it as well.

Some found the only remedy is/was to take the 'offending' scene/s and run them through the Cineconverter filter (found under Special button in the Edit Menu).

I caught a post on the UK Yahoo ListServe this morning from a MS AG representative:
## Oh, that old bug! The transitions will render without a problem when you update your system to BogartSE 3.2e (and Arabesk 4.11). But you have to import/record your scene again. Then it should work.

BogartSE 3.2e:
<http://78.46.78.69/downloads/ISO/BogartSE32e.zip>

Arabesk 4.11:
<http://wetter.macrosystem.de/downloads/ISO/ShopCD04.zip>
Now this is only (at this time) of benefit to the PAL customers as Bogart 3.2e has not yet been released in NSTC.
