It's very easy to reproduce. Import 2 still images, A and B.
Immediately save the movie as MPEG (Alt+c). My settings are:
MPEG-2
Video: 720x576; 25.00 Frames/s; 16:9; Quality 10
Audio: 48000 Hz

The resultant MPEG plays fine.

Re-import into MEP as a new movie. Here, the timeline now shows a
short scene from Slide A at the *end* of the movie. If left, that
renders with the incorrect clip (about 8 frames) still present.


I'll check that out, (I wonder if VideoReDo would fix
that? It could, if it is really a GOP issue.) [BUT, as a
general rule I would make my intermediate exports as
uncompressed AVI]



Just did a quick try, but my MPEG2 of two stills is
fine as a new movie in MEP - no extra frames at the
end. I'll try a few more times, maybe I just got lucky
with this try. It could be that I am using Version 12,
as well. Don't see how it could be a PAL/NTSC
thing, but who knows.

Thanks for trying anyway. Just in case the different result is down to
the MPEGs, here's the one I made, TEST-2photos-1.mpg (9 MB):

The result I see here when I import that is MEP-MPEG-Quirk1.jpg (27KB)

I've emailed a 'support ticket' to MAGIX.

I downloaded your "TEST-2photos-1.mpeg" and tried to
find the extra frames using MEP12, Ulead VideoStudio 10+,
VideReDo TVSuite, VDubMod 1.5.10.2 build 2540, the
GSpot VGS display, and MPEGanalizzatore V1.1.6, but I
don't see any. This suggests to me that the problem is
occurring when it is being added back into MEP11.

Most of the above show 498 frames of actual images out
of a 500 frame total for the file, are these 8 frames in addition
to the 498? If you cut them out and save the movie/project
then reload the movie, are they gone or does it recreate the 8
frames all over again. (That would indicate that it is in the way
MEP11 is reading the source video.)

Luck;
Ken
