Bill, the transitions should appear in Studio at the bottom, just before 3rd party transitions. Apply strictly the information provided in this tutorial. You can also try the "Tip-2 My HFX thumbnails in Studio are black", it will help you to solve the problem.

I just began using S-11 plus after many years with S 9. While loooking for answers to some questions I came accross the Declic site and am very glad I did.
I just downloaded some HFx files and followed procedure to install. When I ran Studio they did not show up n my transitions list so I followed the above procedure. I doing so I found a few things that I need to ask.
Will I have to follow this procedure everytime I download and install new files?
When I tried to use the Hfxrepair.bat for Windows XP I found the batch file to be incorrect. The original script had the following line in it:
cd\documents and settings\all users\documents\programs\pinnacle\studio 11\programs\plugins\RTFx
when in fact the correct line for my system is:
cd\documents and settings\all users\documents\pinnacle\studio 11\programs\plugins\RTFx
The originsl line had an extra "\programs\" in it.
Just want to pass this along.
Thanks for a great site.

Yes, unfortunately, you will have to follow this procedure everytime you download a new transition. For the time being, no other possibility (if we find a solution, we will inform you through the newsletter, do not hesitate to subscribe).
For the path, it is maybe due to your installation, as we have tested it on various configuration and the path is correct. I have just checked it again. I use the bat file for my own use daily.

Please take note of the revised batch file available for Studio 11 and Studio 10 (if you run Windows Vista). It should solve all problems recently encountered by many of you (if you have any problem with these files, please use our form on the contact page for assistance regarding this specific problem).

I am using Studio 11 ultimate and I downloaded some free HFX transitions.
The problem is that they appear in section Declic but they are not visible - every window for each transition is black. So I have to open all windows to find the one that I want. Thanks for your answer.

Hello. I have Pinnacle Studio Plus 11. I had the serial for a few packs of the HFX. But when I entered them it did say: Ripples and Circles HFX are now unlocked. I tried your thing here and they still didnt appear. So I am very puzzled. Please help.

I'm using Studio 11.0.0.5082 (I know I should upgrade). When I go to the Hollywood FX directory and double click on Easy_FX.exe it give me a dialog box that states that Easy FX Standalone Editor has stopped working (Vista).
On another computer I'm running XP and the Easy_FX.exe opens fine.
Any suggestions?

I think I discovered the problem. Apparently HFX is not automatically associated with all of Studio 11 install apps. You have to go to the directory where HFX is located and click on the HFXSerial.exe and enter in the key you got when you registered the product.
A little strange but..
I would suggest that Pinnacle in the future have a method of getting to the FX editor from the main studio it just seems logical.

Hi, I have Studio 11 Plus release 11.00.5082.
I have installed all your free transitions but while I see all of them in Fx Editor, I have just a few in Studio11. I have investigaed in FAQ and tried all suggested solutions:
- reinstall code
- cancel EffectCache and EditorCache files
- cancel all items in HfxXML fold but not improved the situation.
- I have also tryed to cancel AlbumOrg.org and Effect.org
- I have also tried with Fx-Editor saving the transition with a different name in a different folder but nothing to do.
I have tryed to change the transition using HFX editor in Studio. It changes and allows me the transition I selected but it keeps on not being shown in the Studio transition window
Where did I miss ?
(in Studio9 and Studio10 everything was perfect)
Thanks for helping

Each time I save a custom transition in FX for Studio 6, another icon for it show up in my custom transitions folder, e.g. if I save one called MyTransition and later modify it and save it, there are 2 icons shown. Each time I save it another shows up. If I delete one of them, they are all deleted. How do I clean up the folder that is displayed?

Hello Gary,
We are about to publish a FAQ related to cleaning HFX (deleting a HFX in fact). In the meantime, I propose that each time you save a transition, you use "SAVE" instead of "SAVE AS", it will avoid duplicate entry. Stay tuned through the newsletter for the "HFX FAQ - How to delete HFX".

Donny,
Sorry for answering so late... Some people have the same problem than you, and currently nobody found a solution. We may ask Remy Felhmann or Markk655 to have a look to it, they are a king for this kind of problems !
In general, it won't happen if you do not rename the HFX. If you rename them and use a number lower than the latest HFX i nyour collection, you may experience this problem. Nevertheless, it is not systematic.

Hello Andrew,
There is currently a known problem of Pinnacle. The installation of Studio 12 goes well if Studio 11 was uninstalled. Pinnacle is trying to find a solution to install Studio 12 even with Studio 11 already installed. It is expected that Pinnacle is the solution.

If you have Hollywood version 5 and 6 on the same computer it means you have Studio 9 installed beside studio 11.
Wich operating system you have?
Windows XP SP2 or Windows Vista?
I supose that you have Vista, I think that Hollywood 5.0 does not work with vista, and that makes you see the effects in Hollywood 6 and not in Hollywood 5
Kind regards,
Etienne

Can anyone tell me, I have Hollywood FX basic, version 6, all transitions are visible and usable in that, but when I try to open them in Studio11, they all have a watermark in the center, or they just don't appear at all. Can I make them work in Studio, since they are in FX I shouldn't have to buy them again, right?

Hello stupidinseattle,
Please have a look to the "HFX FAQ" page, there are plenty of good stuff and answers there. You should be able to resolve your problem. Take note:
- download only HFX marked as [HFX Basic]
- download the "unlock xxx" which will add HFX
- download and replace your InstallHFZ.exe file (adding HFX as well)
All packages are present on our website.
If you still have problems, please use one of the forums mentionned on the home page.

Dear Sir,
I purchased Avid Liquid 7 Pro from a reputable stockist about 17 months ago.
When I bought the software it came with The Avid Liquid Big Splash Bundle.
This included
Title.Deko Pro
Hollywood FX Pro
Magic Bullet Movie Looks
The unlock serial codes do not seem to work and although I have sent various emails to Avid, they do not seem to have solved the problem so far. Their email thread system times out after 48 hours and it takes forever to explain what I thought would be a simple solution to them.
They did however give me a new code for Title Deko Pro which is now working.
I can not get the effects working (ie Hollywood FX and others) or Smartsound or Magic Bullet.
Can you please help me?
Regards,
Dave T

Hi,
I just upgraded to Studio 12 and uninstalled studio 11 then I installed the HFX 6.0.
The HFX 6.0 Transitions still don't appear in the transitions tab after using the Repare-HFX-S12-XP.bat batch file.
I tried to manually delete the files mentioned but the EffectCache.xxxxxx and EditorCache.xxxxx are not in the specified directory. I deleted the contents of the hfxxml anyway and when I ran studio 12, the transitions still did not appear.
What did I do wrong? Please help!

Hi there,
I have been reading (and applying) all your tips and tricks. But I still have some problems. I am using Studio plus 12 with vista. And I have installed the bonus CD from studio 10. I have used studio 8,9 and 10 on another PC.
After your tips I am able to see the transitions I have downloades from the declic site (eg flags), but I still cannot see all the other series. Like family, sports etc. I can not even see the locked transitions and when I go to the Pinnacle site (more transitions) it seems like there is not anything to download (which is true, because I have installed the Bonus CD).
I hope my story makes sense to you. The biggest problem is that I can't see all the different transition folders.
Hope you can help me.

Déclic, thanks for your help on this - re-reading your website has enabled
me to solve the problem!
After my previous e-mail to you I had a problem with my new PC (unrelated to Studio 12/HFX) and had to do a complete reinstall. When I eventually
reinstalled Studio 12, transferred previous HFX Mega content and installed
SmartSound, only the standard Studio 12 HFX effects would show in the album.
I then re-read your instructions and saw that for Vista the UAC had to be
turned off! After doing this and executing your batch file all the HFX Mega
Transitions were visible.
I then installed the HFZ files from my old PC (with UAC off) and then ran
your batch file. My personal HFX folder and the transitions were then also
visible and worked correctly.
Thanks for your help and for providing the batch file.

Hello eian,
It means that your installation has not been processed through the usual standard way (you probably installed HFX/Studio in a separate hard disk or in a non standard folder). In such case, we can not provide a batch file which is working, so you have to follow the MANUAL method described in this tutorial. Keep us informed.

I tried both tips listed to make transitions appear rather than show as "black" and I still see them as black. Also, some of them have an "unlock box and the Pinnacle" logo watermark.
I did the following
:
Open the transition and click edit, do nothing and close Pinnacle and re-open
and
For Studio 12 : --> Repare-HFX-S12-XP.bat

@ Gene,
As you can see in this comment section, some other people already had your problem. But it has always been solved by *STRICTLY* following the tutorial. Sometimes, we forget one step. Try to repeat it. Also download a new transition, it might help as well.
Concerning unlock, try our 3 HFX unlock (search for keyword unlock in the Free HFX page), also check our HFX FAQ (there is a utility called InstallHFZ.exe - FAQ is called "How can all the Hollywood FX transitions be unlocked ?"). Have you also tried: Tip-2 My HFX thumbnails in Studio are black ?
If nothing work, please contact us through the contact page, or through forums.
@ DJ M,
Same tips than for Gene, carefully go step by step through the tutorial, you will see that they will show up (do not forget to *CLOSE* Pinnacle Studio before launching the batch file).

Problem - NON LEGIBLE THUMBNAILS
After reinstalling my operating system and studio TWICE the thumbnails for HFX 3 are sill not legible ! Pinnacle is sending me a new disc as they decided that the problem is with the execution . Pinnacle had sent me a replacement for my HFX 3 disc but nothing changed !
Used Windows "un installer" to remove HFX 3 ( Did NOT work - HFX 3 remained functioning in Studio 12 and in the HFX Editor ) Don't know why ??????
Read your FAQ on deleting individual transitions in HFX and deleted one by one all the transitions for HFX 3 in the Editor
Deleted each group heading in the Editor
Checked Studio 12 and all transitions where still listed for HFX 3
Ran your REPAIR - HFX 12 file
Ran "Ccleaner" software to eliminate junk files that are not valid
Ran a software for REGISTRY repairs etc. ( I use Registry Booster 2 )
Reloaded Disc containing HFX 3
SUCCESS !!!!
Pinnacle was not able to fix but your little program did the final trick !!
I have to keep saying on how you have added to the joy of a great hobby !! I hope you will let everyone know that !!
Gert.

Hello barsaat,
Out of the 70 comments left in this section, half of them (35) appeared to be problems identical to yours. After investigation and contacting people, it appears that the tutorial was not followed correctly, or that one step was missed...
I would be grateful if you can:
1/ Read carefully the tutorial once more
2/ Try the manual steps
3/ If all fails, then download our Repare-HFX batch file which will solve the problem (but read the notice with it, apply it correctly)...
Thanks,
DV FX

greatest tutorial for me. I have had the same problem each time that install 12 or later after 10. HFX should appear only if I have studio 10 installed even.
Now I have all my HFX without being forced to have studio 10 too.
thanx a lot.

Some weeks ago my computer crashed. Now it is fixed again, so I have to re-install a lot of programs, including the Déclic transitions.
Before the crash I used Windows XP and Pinnacle Studio 12 ultimate and could easily install the Déclic transitions.
Now I use Windows 7 with the same Pinnacle program, but I cannot install the Déclic transitions now. Is there perhaps a special trick to do this in Windows 7?

Hello Huiby,
if it is not already done on your system (Windows 7) you have to turn off the UAC. Click on the following link (if you are not sure how to do the modification in your O.S.)
As Loosecannon has explained at the top of this tutorial : ... you must be logged in administrator mode when running the batch file (in order to regenerate the HfxXML folder) *and* when running Studio once using Windows 7 or Vista.
I hope that my answers will guide you to success. :o)

I am using Windows 7... and pinnacle studio 14 Ultimate collection
I have tried everything that are written in tutorials. first the folders did not show, but somehow I was able to fix this with the help of the "Repare-HFX-11-12-14-15" batch file. and the folder declic video appeared.
my question is Do I have to use the "Repare-HFX-11-12-14-15" batch file everytime I have to install new transitions downloaded from your website?...
I tried installing directly without repair. i didnt work. so I used the "Repare-HFX-11-12-14-15" batch file then installed the new FX transitions before reopening Studio 14 program, andit worked.
so Does it mean I have to use the "Repare-HFX-11-12-14-15" batch file everytime?

Hello Rajesh,
Yes you need to use the "Repare-HFX..." file each time you install a new transition downloaded from our website.
But you can:
- download all transitions (there is a zip file which exist)
- extract all of them
- close Studio
- double click on each transition to install it
- run Repare-HFX-... only once for all installation
Is that clear ? Does it make sense ?
Please check: Installation of Declic Video transitions: A to Z

Topic: HFX transitions not visible in Studio.
In the past I installed Declic transitions in Studio 11/12. Sorry, I don't remember how I did this, but a long time ago I migrated to Studio 14 (Studio 12 is still installed) and all my transitions are now active in studio 14.
Unfortunately, installation of additional (Declic) transitions in studio 14 fails. HFZ files are properly unpacked/installed, but hfx files are not visible in studio (however they can be selected in the FX editor).
Of course I followed all guidelines listed on your site by deleting cachefiles and all xml+bmp files (also checked out the batch file which did not work as my installation is not default but I am sure I did the right thing).
Installation details:
Windows 7 64 bit.
HFX files are in:
D:\Video\Studio\HollywoodFX\Effects (all studio content
Cache files are in:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Pinnacle\Program Files (x86)\Multimedia\Pinnacle\Studio 14\Programs\PlugIns\Rtfx
XML and BMP files are in:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MULTIMEDIA\Pinnacle\Studio 14\Plugins\RTFx\HfxXML
It seems that both cachefiles are properly rebuilt when Studio 14 is opened, but the folder HfxXML stays empty: the files are not recreated as advised...
Test: after manual deletion of an existing xml (e.g. BAS-UFO.xml) it is not visible in Studio and is also not recreated after startup, even if the HFX file is there.
Any advise would be highly appreciated. Kind regards and thanks for your excellent transitions!

Hello Paul Arts,
We always recommend a standard installation, otherwise it's very difficult or quite impossible to help people, since everybody has a different installation.
In your case, it seems that the installation is not standard, and therefore I am unable to help, I can just propose to follow our guideline, and doing the job by yourself, and trying to understand why the XML is not reconstructed itself.

My appreciation for your quick response!
Actually the only thing not standard about my installation is, that I installed Studio in a subfolder 'multimedia' in the programs folder. Installation of all studio features (such as transitions) in a separate folder is a formal option offered by the Studio installation package when upgrading from a previous version...
I have read all articles on your site and applied your procedures (ref articles Tip-1 and 2), but xml and bmp files are simply not being rebuilt, only the cache files. I have read some articles from Studio users who mention the same problem, so I am not completely alone it seems...
It would really help if I could gain some insight in how studio uses/rebuilds these hfx-related xml and bmp files. Do you have any information on that process or on the contents of the xml files?
PS: All I could find untill now is a 'work around' (which you might publish in a tip): Use an existing HFX transition in Studio, open it with HFX editor and then replace it with the desired HFX, which is invisible in Studio but visible in the editor in the appropriate album. Then close the editor and although the icon on the Studio timeline remains unchanged, the new transition is now applied.
Salutations distinguées,
Paul Arts

Dear Paul,
The way Studio rebuilds the xml is extremely confusing for us as well...
That's why, we are in favor of standard installation. As you said, the option you choose is offered, but it causes problem, we know this, and that's why many people finally re-install everything to benefit from our transition (and strictly following a standard installation).
Otherwise, Have you looked here and tried the option with the zip file ? >> Install our free transitions in Pinnacle Studio 16 (or AVID Studio)
DV FX
PS: the workaround is not convenient and I am not in favor of publishing it.

Absolutely brilliant. In the zipfile 'install our free transitions in AVid Studio' I found the xml and bmp files I have been looking for. I copied them to the appropriate Studio folder and voila, it works. Thanks a lot.
Suggestion: rename the link to the zipfile or make a link on your tip#1 page: it is a good solution but it refers to Avid Studio which was the reason I overlooked it.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Finally yesterday I succedeed after many days to restore all my transitions...
I Thaught...
In fact no declic video appears..
I thaught because has the same number of others
00 - Declic Video
so i changed everywhere in
35 - declic video
and so the same with some other transition disappeared...
But Pinnacle 15 doesn't see the transition.
The only way is using a transition that I see, edit it, and substitute from Easyfx program...
Can you help me?
Thanks

Heh heh. I see nothing has changed with Pinnacle Studio over the years since I bought v8 later upgrading to version 9.4, I was going to buy the HFX transitions key but I'm glad I didn't. I'll stick with the buggy 9.4; at least I have workarounds for most of the bugs/issues/f*ups.
Anyway you are doing great work. Pinnacle should pay you a fee.

Hello Sam,
HFX key does not need to be bought anymore with later Pinnacle Studio version (it's already included).
And thanks for the congratulations,
DV FX
PS: Think twice to migrate, the latest version bring a lot of new features... And no, we are not paid to say so... Lol

Hi DV FX
It's not just the cost of the software but I'll need to upgrade my PC. Anyway, many months ago I emailed Pinnacle asking if I could upgrade my current version. I'm still waiting for an answer. I will have nothing more to with them until I get a reply.
