What is the pop up "Hightlight reel has started" when I press ALT+H. How do I disable this as I use this hot key in an application and it has slowed down my workflow

Facebook introduces Instagram Reels

Today we’re announcing Instagram Reels: a new way to create and discover short, entertaining videos on Instagram.

Reels invites you to create fun videos to share with your friends or anyone on Instagram. Record and edit 15-second multi-clip videos with audio, effects and new creative tools. You can share reels with your followers in Feed and if you have a public account you can make them available to the wider Instagram community through a new space in Explore. Reels in Explore offers anyone the chance to become a creator on Instagram and reach new audiences on a global stage.

Creating Reels

Select Reels at the bottom of the Instagram camera. You’ll see a variety of creative editing tools on the left side of your screen to help create your reel, including:

Audio: Search for a song from the Instagram music library. You can also use your own original audio by simply recording a reel with it. When you share a reel with original audio, your audio will be attributed to you, and if you have a public account, people can create reels with your audio by selecting “Use Audio” from your reel.

AR Effects: Select one of the many effects in our effect gallery, created by Instagram and creators all over the world, to record multiple clips with different effects.

Timer and Countdown: Set the timer to record any of your clips hands-free. Once you press record, you’ll see a 3-2-1 countdown before recording begins for the amount of time you selected.

Align: Line up objects from your previous clip before recording your next to help create seamless transitions for moments like outfit changes or adding new friends into your reel.

Speed: Choose to speed up or slow down part of the video or audio you selected. This can help you stay on a beat or make slow motion videos.

Reels can be recorded in a series of clips (one at a time), all at once, or using video uploads from your gallery. Record the first clip by pressing and holding the capture button. You’ll see a progress indicator at the top of the screen as you record. Stop recording to end each clip.

Sharing Reels

You can share reels with your followers or get discovered by the larger Instagram community in Explore.

If you have a Public Account: You can share your reel to a dedicated space in Explore, where it has the chance to be seen by the wider Instagram community. You can also share your reel with your followers by posting it to your Feed. When you share reels featuring certain songs, hashtags or effects, your reel may also appear on dedicated pages when someone clicks on that song, hashtag or effect.

If you have a Private Account: Reels follows your privacy settings on Instagram. You can share to Feed so only your followers can see your reel. People will not be able to use original audio from your reels, and people cannot share your reels with others who don’t follow you.

Once your reel is ready, move to the share screen, where you can save a draft of your reel, change the cover image, add a caption and hashtags, and tag your friends. After you share your reel, it will live on a separate Reels tab on your profile, where people can find the reels you’ve shared. If you also share to your Feed, your reel will appear on your main profile grid, though you have the option to remove it.

Whether you have a public or private account, you can share your reel to your Story, close friends or in a direct message. If you do so, your reel will behave like a regular Story — it will not be shared to Reels in Explore, it will not appear on your profile and it will disappear after 24 hours.

Watching Reels

Reels in Explore showcases the best of trending culture on Instagram. Discover an entertaining selection of reels made by anyone on Instagram, in a vertical feed customized for you. If you love a reel, you can easily like, comment or share it with your friends.

You’ll also see some reels with a “Featured” label. If your reel is featured in Explore, you’ll receive a notification. Featured reels are a selection of public reels chosen by Instagram to help you discover original content we hope will entertain and inspire you.

Reels gives people new ways to express themselves, discover more of what they love on Instagram and help anyone with the ambition of becoming a creator take center stage.

[WTB][US] Reel to reel

As the title states, looking for a reel to reel that will accept 10.5" reels. This is for a friend which has about 30 or so reels that he is wanting to get put over to a computer system and burn to disk.

Even if you do not want to sell a reel to reel player that would be fine if someone can actually get these ported over to a computer and burn the disks. He is willing to box up all the reels that he has and ship them to anyone that can do this task. Keep in mind, the system has to accept the 10.5" reels though.

If someone has an old reel to reel player he or she is willing to sell, that would even be better*Toast :toast:

Thanks in advance.

No Fluent Design Reveal Highlight in Start Menu - Fall Creator's Update

Hi,

There are different factors that can contribute as to why a certain feature is not functioning correctly on your computer that is running the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update. One possible reason could be that the feature got disabled by mistake. For us
to resolve your concern, we suggest that you verify if the Transparency effects toggle switch under the "Personalization" section of the Settings app is set to "On". Kindly follow the steps below to check the settings:

Open the Settings app by pressing the Windows key + I.

Select Personalization from the list of options.

From the selection that will show up, kindly choose the option labeled "Colors".

Turn on the Transparency effects toggle switch.

Completing the steps should now allow the Reveal Highlight feature to work again.

Feel free to reach out to us for further concerns.

Transparency is already enabled. I'm seeing the blurs, but reveal highlight is not transparency. This is reveal highlight, what I
should be seeing:

Thanks!
