Question: how to edit or create themes

[detroitgrass]

I love the instant movies, but they just do not have enough of them. How do I create my own theme for an instant movie? Is there a tutorial?

I am familiar with HTML style programming, but am not used to the tags used in the AESC file. Is there a tutorial on this?

Also, the MVTH file in another post said I can open it in Premiere. It does not allow it to be opened.

Thanks, for the help

I've never been able to find any documentation dealing with how to make your own themes or instant movie templates in Premiere Elements. The Premiere Pro SDK would apply to Elements as well, but there is nothing included in SDK on this topic. Adobe most likely has a tool to create the aesc and mvth files, but I don't believe that is publically available.

Didn't RJ post something about creating or modifying themes at some point?

RJ had posted

I have edited the line with false, but I was unable to open the file in PRE 7.

update: If i rename the MVTH file as a PREL file, I can open it in PRE 7. I can see all the transitions, swf files, and such with a bar and tone for what would be actual video/audio.

So maybe a little closer.

Here's the thread: viewtopic.php?f=38&t=1204

This was for version 4. There are probably differences in later versions. I know RJ updated his custom themes for version 7.
