View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: Unable To Export Sequence / Work
Aug 24, 2013Having cut together a short commercial recently, I have been unable to export my sequence/ work. There are no error messages, only incomplete exported versions of the sequence (sometimes 1 second, sometimes 8 seconds!) or nothing at all. It will go through the motions and not generate an exported file.
I have attempted to export my sequence multiple ways - from the timeline, from the media library and from the mediahub - with identical results. I'm totally at a loss. I've also gone back to a sequence which I was able to export successfully one month ago and now I get the same problem - either no result or some fractional piece of the edit - never more than a few seconds. My finished edit, by the way, is a 30-second spot.
For example, here's one way I've attempted to export:
1. I select my sequence from the media library and right-click for export.
2. I select movie, choose my destination, and select a format preset (I've tried just about every preset, hoping it was a preset error of some kind), and
3. I hit export.
Instead of the spinning prompt in the lower left corner, showing me a percentage countdown (or count-up) - which was present a month ago when I was las exporting a show -I get a quick audio mixdown prompt in the lower left then nothing. It all happens in less than 1 second from the time I press "export".
I've copied the console log for your review. This particular effort/ screenshot resulted in an 8-second clip, which is the longest one (still incomplete) I've been able to generate since I attempted to export starting yesterday. Again, my sequence is 30 seconds, and it either does nothing, generates an empty file (45k in size) or creates an incomplete movie file (usually 1 or 2 seconds).
AutoDesk Smoke :: Export DPX Sequence With Source Timecode?
Jun 21, 2012I've been called upon to use Smoke as an intermediate between offline and color session elsewhere. I need to export a DPX sequence for the colorist to work from. Can I easily do this in Smoke? Just conform the offline and export DPX sequence? Also, can I put in handles and include original source timecode?

I understand that Smoke has some great color correction tools, but when it comes to be fast and productive, a dedicated color grading application is what is needed.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: PNG Sequence Caching
Jan 12, 2014when caching .png sequences it happens a lot that some portions of the clip are not being cached. Or at least some frames are still pointing to the original .png's so that playback stutters.
This happens both in a normal HD project, but a lot on a current UltraHD 60p project on the proxy-generation (set to 50%). A workaround is adding an effect, render it and commit the clip. But this is not suitable on the big 60p project.
Observing the percentage counter in the lower left corner gives me the strange suspicion that it is happening to those portions of the clip which are being cached during the autosave process. There are a lot of them. Converting is not an option. Mac and storage are fast enough.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: Sequence Publish Not Working
Sep 25, 2012I am having some issues with the newly added Sequence Publish function added in Prerelease 4. I have tried using both the built in AAF export option, and have tried a custom DPX image sequence with EDL export. The function is able to do the final sequence render in preparation for the publish, however it doesn't ever actually publish either the DPX sequence or quicktime movies I request it to. I am left with a folder which contains the edl or aaf file, but no corresponding media ever gets written out. When I check the jobs tab in the mediahub, it just shows "waiting" as its status, but it never progresses past that point. I have tried this function on three different timelines with different media, and it still won't write out the publish sequence. I am able however, to export the sequences to a quicktime as I would normally.

Jul 22, 2013Kind of at my wits end with this software. Decided to give it a proper test on a job involving some wire removal and a bit of 3D comping. Every day brings hourly crashes, corrupted sequences, black frame renders, inability to archive projects, on and on. It's like every shot on this project is a minefield of troubleshooting and trying to find workarounds just to get a render complete. I'm spending easily an extra 20 hours a week just trying to overcome problems with the software.
Now I've got a sequence that I literally spent 4 hours on and just trying to open it brings smoke to a hard crash. Trying to make a cfx clip of the sequence takes half an hour to save so I've only been doing that once a day.

There is no icon next to the source indicating that it isn't a source.

So there is only four icons at any given time in the list.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: Clip Division On Sequence Timeline
Jul 7, 2012I recently got a movie file from a client. This file is actually an edited video with straight cut edits. So I dragged this from the bin / media library onto the timeline and proceed to chop up the video according to where the cuts are using ctrl v, like how I usually do in premiere pro. I then selected one of the clips and added color correction to this clip. I found out that all the other clips were being color corrected as well.
I removed every thing and re-started from scratch using the source monitor to mark in and out for every cut. This time it worked properly with just the selected clip being color corrected. Is there any way I can do this like in premiere pro timeline with the razor blade but each clip becomes an individual one?

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: Duplicating Project To Have Template Sequence To Modify When Required?
Apr 6, 2013I have to say that so far, after an intensive week editing a project in Smoke, things are getting quite clear, though I didn't dive deep in CFX, apart for some white balance and curves modification, so I don't have experience with any other FX feature, 3D, etc...
I like Smoke for non multi-cam work, so I think I'm going to implement it in our workflow.
And about workflow is my question: We have a video format, opening title, footage with TV bug as an overlay, music background, and ending title.
When I was working in Final Cut Pro, I could open different projects at once, so it was easy to create a template sequence in a template project, copy and paste the footage in the current project while keeping the fixed elements on the timeline.
Now, Smoke can't open more than one project at a time. I don't even know how to duplicate a project to have a template sequence to modify each time I need.
What kind of workflow required in order to reduce editing time by keeping a template that we can modify each time we need?

AutoDesk Smoke :: Resize Output Of ConnectFX Node To Match The Sequence Size?
Jun 12, 2012I set up a sequence that is HD, but I have source material that is 2K (2560x1440). When I try to insert or overwrite said source clip to the sequence, it should insert and automatically add a resize node. Instead, it changes the sequence size to match the source size. Bug?
Also, I can't seem to find a way to resize the output of my connectFX node to match the sequence size. For example, lets say I want to comp a bunch of shots that are 2K in action, and then output an HD sequence matching my sequence size. How is this done? I have changed the comp size in action and linked that to the connectfx node, but it just puts the smaller comp size in a black box which is the size of the source material (in this case, 2K).
