Search for and remove ads
This wizard in the context menu for video objects may be used to locate and
remove advertising blocks in the recorded material automatically.
The principle: The program searches for typical signs of a beginning and
end of an ad break, these sections are selected and cut out, so that the ad
is removed. The ad-remover works particularly well for movies in 16:9
format. These movies in wide screen format have a black stripe at the top
and bottom of the screen. When the ads start, these stripes often disappear.
MAGIX Video Pro X3 searches for and removes those sections. "Get black
values" allows you to click on the black stripes in the video monitor with the
eyedropper tool to determine the black value for improved detection.
Another general sign of advertising is increased volume.
The dia
log enables you to select whether you simply want to mark
commercial breaks initially or delete them immediately. Additional search
and display options are also available.
