Effects incompatible with one another?

absoluteDann

Hi all,

I haven't posted here in a while - I must be getting the hang of using Videopad!

I have been trying to use a combination of effects on my Video 2 track, to play over the 'base' video on Track 1. Specifically, I had tried to use a Ripple effect on the Video 2 track, with transparency. One or the other of these effects worked correctly, but with both in place, they only showed the track 1 beneath. Are there some effects that are not compatible with one another, or perhaps a hierarchy of applying the effects?

I can think of ways around this (i.e., applying effects, exporting track, adding the exported video as a new asset) but would be more convenient if it were possible to applying several effects at once.

Thanks for any advice you may have!

Using the current release, adding ripple, then a 50% transparency to the woman, unable to replicate your issue here. The tulips are on track 1.

I was using beta 13.39 and everything works as expected, preview and export are correct.

Maybe it's a cache problem? Try closing your project and deleting the cache: (see screenshot)

Thanks for the tips. It actually worked when I applied the effects in the reverse order of what I had been - Ripple first, and then transparency.

Either way here. But ... whatever works for you.😊 There are occasions when order makes a difference.
