View 3 RepliesI have an issue that every time I render a scene with photometric lights and have the exposure control set to Mr. Photographic exposure, outdoor night time, I get flicker. It appears to be an interlacing problem, but looks like the lights are flickering bright and dim. I am rendering as a .jpg sequence.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHaving followed various tutorials to the letter, I am finding that, on close inspection, my stacked image appears to have small, random, out of focus blobs. No matter how many shots I use in the stack, the final results are the same. However, if I repeat the procedure, with the same images, the result is the same, but with different areas of softness.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI've Recently updated to Photoshop CC on windows 8, and I'm getting a really bad flicker whenever I use it (it feels like I'm having a seizure). I have seen on various forums as well as in the offical Adobe section that this is an issue. The recommended solution was to reduce graphic processing setting to basic. I did but nothing has changed. I also read that people had turned graphic processing off completly, this also didn't work.
I'm am using a Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000 in a Dell xps.
Back in the late 60s and 70s I had a 8mm video camera. One of those take 50' of film and send it off for developing. In the 80s I got my first talky Hi8 video camcorder. Back then I had to set up a screen, set my camcorder next to the projector and shoot away. Now I am transferring these videos to DVD so I can open them in VS X3. As might be guessed there is a lot of flicker in the videos.
Is there any way to Eliminate this flicker during post edit in VideoStudio X3?
The issue happening when 3Ds Max is NOT on maximize viewport mode and showing 4 viewports at the same time and viewports start to jump, flicker and change randomely as if there is no specific view assigned for each viewport, and that causes a problem when I want to see and work with my model in 4 different views at the same time.
I'm cureently using 3Ds Max 2013 and previously the issue was exactly the same for 3Ds Max 2012. I should add that this issue is gone when I use OpenGL, but I really want to use it with "Nitrous" feature which gives more realistic real-time results.

I have just bought a new laptop to try and be a bit more mobile.I have upgraded and loaded AutoCad 2012, no problems so far.The problem I have is when the program is opened and I hover the mouse off the drawing area over the ribbons etc,I unplugged my wireless mouse and used the touch pad as I thought the mouse was the problem, no good.
I have checked the display and graphics drivers and they are all up to date.I did a bit of a search regarding this problem. One suggestion was to change the display settings from 32bit to 16bit, this did no good. Also another was to change the Hardware Acceleration, and some people said this worked for them. However I tried this but the button was greyed out and wouldn’t allow me to change.I had no problems with XP Pro, I am beginning to hate this Win 7 operating system, I can’t understand why Microsoft always have to change things when it’s not broken.I eventually wanted to have this Laptop plugged into my 27inch monitor and use it as a desktop computer, but have the mobility.
When I publish to Flickr, I want to use a white watermark for some and others I want to use my black watermark (because the background colors on the photo warrant one or the other, otherwise the watermark will not show). Do I have to publish each photo separately and not in a combined group or is there a way to indicated which photo I want the white watermark on and which I want the black watermark on?

View 5 Replies View RelatedStrobe/Flicker effect alternating between 2 clips in VideoStudio?
Say I have 2 clips, one of movie A, one of Movie B. I want one to play for half a second, then the other to play for half a second. Repeat for about 30 seconds. I could take each clip, split it up into half second increments, then insert each one alternating. But that is about 60 splits and a lot of redundant mouse work!! See the problem??
Is there a way, either through effects or other dev tools, to speed this process up?
Here is example of the effect i'm trying to achieve:

I have some windows that i'm trying to simulate light coming from. I'm just assigning a constant shader to some polygons. The polygons are animated moving from a distance to the camera but i can't stop them flickering. Each window seem to take turns at turning itself on and off!
No FG in the scene, i've tried all the different filter types, set the sampling contrast to .01 and tried different options such as same sample pattern on all frames but i can't eliminate it.
Having a screen flicker problem since 5.cRC came out, but only in Library/Grid mode when scrolling or selecting from the grid. But only when there are more images than can fit on one page in the grid.Seems to use an unusually low amount of memory with nothing else running on the system.

View 18 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to understand why adding colour correction, or auto contrast to my some of my clips is causing them to have flicker. It's not a consistent flicker either, but random.
The footage affected is 720p at 29.97fps in a timeline with the same settings. The raw footage appears fine. Once effects are added, the image stutters. I have rendered the preview files and the issue remains the same, likewise when exported.
Why does my screen flicker when cropping and image turn solid black so I can not see image?

I'm using the metallic preset under the arch and design for mental ray and i've added a scratch bump map. It shows perfectly on the material editor but doesn't show up at all on the actual rendered image.
I've attached the image to show you.
I have made several renders in the Scanline renderer, I've tried to capture as much detail as I can squeak out of it, setting it to the Catmull-Rom filter, Light Tracer, Max Star 2.5, and the like. It creates nice renders for game assets. However, if I switch it to Mental Ray, it seems that a lot of the details get washed out. Are there any 'base setting' to capture every nook and cranny better?

How is it possible for Mental Ray to give me an out of memory error on a Windows 7 professional 64-bit machine using the 64-bit Max Design? I have 4GB of physical memory, but whenever a program needs more memory Windows allocates virtual memory to it, so theoretically my memory limit should be my hard drive space. However, when I try to render my scene with a little less than 200k polys with a displacement map on it (trying to get grass), the task manager shows 3dsmax.exe using up to 4.3GB of commit memory (4gb working memory), then it crashes.
I've set Windows to use up to 16gb for my pagefile, so it seems like mental ray isn't actually 64-bit since it crashes right at the 4gb limit of a 32-bit program.

we're currently doing an animation of a walkthrough of an airport where we're getting these strange artifacts when rendering after creating the final gather pass.
We're using only mr daylight system to light the scene, to get an all white soft-shadow render. Only three types material, diffuse white, glossy white and glass (all mr A&D). The glossy material gets blown out and we receive strange red and green artifacts here and there in the model.
We use mr Photographic Exposure Control.
I am searching for the "mental ray message window" in the 2012 version. ok i've got the German version, but there is only a "rendermeldungsfenster"(render message window) where only the errors are shown. is there any other possibility to see how many final gather points are in the scene?
greetings, mredl
I saw something about being able to render faster using network rendering for mental ray, but I'm not sure where I've seen it, nor do I know how it works.
If this is possible it would be great, since a scene I tried rendering had an ETA of about 51 hours. So I turned off ray traced shadows, seems to have lowered the rendering time quite a bit, but I'm still gonna end up with about 26 hours of rendering. If network rendering could bring that time down, that would be great.
I just tested some of my scenes from Max 2011 in 2012, and rendering is in average about 30% slower than in 2011.
I am attaching pictures for reference. It is obvious that they are 100% identical, there is no difference quality wise, but a significant difference performance wise. I will add some more result comparisons on more complex scenes to confirm the problem once they finish rendering. I am willing to provide my scenes to Autodesk if interested to solve this issue ASAP.
