Re: Video transitions on motion title

The motion title is three seconds long, taken from the middle of the 10 seconds of the original - plenty of handle room there; the film clip sent to motion to add text is similar - taken from the midd

Re: Exporting Timeline With Audio

Thanks - the audio was there, no problem. Just below the playhead it said 'group 1' all along the timeline, on a darker blue background. I got rid of this somehow, and it did the trick. Don't understa
