After I render the song the buttons for upload to YouTube or view the video are not available, they are greyed out. If I go to the folder there is no .avi file. Watched the video and am following the same steps.

Yes, and btw on some systems (non Aero-theme and certain other theme Windows OS's), we've noticed that there are some video remnants of the dialog, and that would be fixed in another patch. That would affect Windows XP and some other theme Windows systems.


Have Fun!

Just downloaded build 413 and still having issues with the new video tool. I can get a video now, but the highlight is always two bars behind the audio whether I select the scroll ahead button or not.

Hi Bob,
Do you have some type of setting to remove the leadin from rendered audio files? That's likely the cause, which we could address in the future but for now you could set that back to normal prior to making a video. Assuming this is the issue, would you want no leadin in the Youtube video also if you have made this setting?

Peter, just tried rendering to a wav file and there is no lead in. For the life of me I can't find where to change that setting. Checked prefs|audio.

Aha, you only get the render options if you select "Save ALL tracks as wav file". I turned off the two bar lead in and now it is synced. Seems like that should be an option in the save to video dialog box, but if these would be for providing backing tracks to a student or friend seems the default should override the audio settings and include the count off.

For now, its just the chords window (no lyrics). We do plan on improving this in the future to include other windows.
