Hi GHSRock65 -

Do you mean it's not showing in the PiP Designer preview or in the main timeline preview?

Could you post some screenshots that show the issue? or maybe upload the PiP Object template to DirectorZone so members can check it out?

See the attachment...I have an video in the lower LH corner and fixed so the couple would appear as if viewing the larger video of the life of KELLY COKER.

When I press the Play option for the preview screen one or the other videos will appear in the preview window but NOT both!

Thanking you again for advice and direction.

Perhaps the newly attached screen shot will reveal more?

Yes - you're right. Both videos should play in the PiP Designer preview.

The screenshots confuse me a bit. DSC_1855.MOV is in Track 1 & Mystery Girl is in Track 2, yet DSC_1855 is overlaying the other video. Maybe there's something else I can't see.

What happens if you replicate that same timeline setup, resizing the MOV file in the main timeline preview window, then go to PiP Designer without adding any keyframes?

Switch Tracks 1 & 2 & see if that makes a difference.

I understand now, the MOV file is showing on top only because you've selected it to go to PiP Designer.

Thank you for responding. I have switched tracks numerous times AND it does NOT work even then...regardless of which one is on top. Thanks again for your help. IF some clue/understanding comes later thank you for sharing.



Sincerely

Would it be possible for you to pack your project, zip it & upload it to a shared file sitem like Google Drive?

That way a proper assessment could be made.

Here's a short example project, set up in a similar way to what you're after. See what it does in your PDR15.
