    So i realize, in this version you can only import ogg files and not wav,mp3...etc? But this I can't put my intro movie in.

    What about the Save issue where the game takes savegame screenshots from the savemenu instead of the scene where my maincharacter is on. Worked before V5. Dont know, is it a bug or a feature?
    I also need a little hint how to get android apks with obb extension to work. Created an apk with obb and put the obb in a folder with same name, than I copyed the obb folder into Android/obb on my smartphone. But it doesn t work. When launching the game I get that typical downloadscreen and nothing happens.
    Also I noticed that some soundeffects work under windows build but not under android. First thought is was the .wav fileextension but changing the file to ogg also doesn't work on android. Its Backgroundmusic in the sceneproperties.

    ogg/opus are the recommended audio formats. mkv with vp8/vp9 codec & ogg/opus for the audio channel is recommended for video files. Not mp3, not mp4, not avi & especially not any videos using the hevc/h265 codec - in regards to the latter, it's a shame as it has very little support in applications / video editors/viewers despite the fact that it has great compression & excellent video quality compared to h264 codec, which is decent quality but with larger file-sizes.

    I've updated the mac version, so it doesn't filter the files you can choose. So it's your call now.

    @AFRLme: the h265 buys its efficiency with enormous encode times, no wonder nobody uses it, ain't nobody got time for that.

    ah. tv rippers use it, but no regular tv has support for those codecs > only video viewer app I know for sure that plays them is VLC - as far as I'm aware.

    Nothing wrong with h264 though. As for h265/hevc, my graphics card comes with something called AMD ReLive - a screen recorder. It was set to hevc by default for some reason & I didn't know. I tried using it for creating a little tutorial video, then learned I couldn't bloody edit the video file in any video editing application I had or downloaded to try. Ended up having to re-record the entire thing again. Pain in the ass.

    Sadly, no good support for Google's VP codec either. Can't open it / render it in Vegas Pro for example. I think it's the same for Adobe Premiere though i believe there's some third party plugin for rendering.

    @SimonS could you also make the rectangular handles for the waypoint system a bit bigger like you did in the wayborder tool? They are barely recognizable when you zoom in...

    My old Magix Video de Luxe I use (because of important features the newer one doesn't have  wink  )  can only export standard movie formats with mp3 or uncompressed wav sound tracks. I don't know what *.mov or some *.avi have inside, but what's about uncompressed *.wav?

    I don't know if Simon has it laying around on his hdd somewhere but David (BigStans) created some batch tool a couple years back that you could place inside of your root folder, tweak a few settings & use to convert & replace all images with webp &/or all audio with ogg/opus &/or all videos with mkv. It supposedly updated the file extensions in the xml data of the linked ved file too. I never got round to testing it out though, so no idea if it was any good.

    P.S: there's plenty of free/open source image/audio/video converters floating around the interwebs mate. wink

    Btw: I use a Premiere Pro also and mostly, so I haven't lack of tools...

    Yes, I can convert movies and pictures into the web*-format AFTER editing (for the final Vis version), but it makes more sense to use the same formats during the editing. Editing frames in Premiere or Video de Luxe, exporting to .mov or .mpg (first compression), then converting into .web* with a converting tool (second compression), import into Vis, - and if I found errors, the same again...
    My Tascam saves sound in *wav-format (and in mp3, but it's worse).

    For sound only it's ok: Audition can export .ogg, but of course I edit the sound-files in a uncompressed wav-format first.
