AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Delay Computer Monitor Video
May 22, 2012
In our edit suite we have the usual video delay from the output of the Kona card through the suites monitors. We also have an audio delay box to correct for this. Our client monitors are all in sync. In Final Cut there is a control to delay the computer monitor video to have it in sync with the rest of the system. In Smoke we cannot find a similar delay. We see the audio delay in preferences but that changes the wrong offset. how to adjust the computer monitor delay so we are all in sync?

Having a very noticeable delay to my broadcast monitor. When I play sequences through FCP7 it's fine. Running an SDI signal out of an AJA IO XT into an SDI input on a FSI BM 210. Do I need to change some preferences in Smoke?

Ive recently started having a problem w Smoke 2013.
Whenever I select ANYTHING (click on an item) there is a 2 second delay before it actually selects and hi lights the item. Its a really annoying delay.
Ive never had this issue before. Happens with just about any command I have Smoke do. Moving the timeline and zooming have the same issue.
This only happens with Smoke. Not with any other program I use. This happens when all the time. Even when Smoke is the only program I have open.
Currently TRYING to LEARN (key words): SMOKE for MAC
Currently using: Final Cut Pro 7, Photoshop/After effects on CS6
Current system:
MacPro5,1
12-Core Intel Xeon 2.66 GHz
RAM: 12 GB
ATI Radeon HD 5870 1024 MB
OSX 10.8.3

The GUI and broadcast monitors in all 3 of our Smokes (Mac) are out of sync by 2 frames.
I know there is a Audio offset, but that will always throw one of the monitors out.
Is there a playback delay or offset that can be used to sync bother the UI monitor and the Broadcast Monitor?
Currently having to use the shortcut Shift+B+F13 to switch between Sync to Hi-Res and Sync to Broadcast depending on the situation.

I run Smoke 2012 Adv Ext1 SP1. The hardware is old, like 5years now.
The way I remember it our GFX card is not powerful enough to feed a broadcast monitor all the time, the output only comes up there when I'm in player.
But, unless my memory's even worse than I thought, I used to get a full screen output from the viewport that was selected (with the blue 'Monitor' display) in Action and Batch.
I can't seem to get this working again. I suppose it's in preferences, but the multiview section is greyed out.
I include 2 shots.

In the Broadcast Monitor Preferences, under the Broadcast Colour Space, when exactly should I use the "Normal" option, and when should I use the "With Headroom" option?
the "Include YUV Headroom" option during Import and Export of Quicktime files, but it's the Broadcast Monitor option.

Ok, so I'm new to this and for some reason I can't enter Backburner web monitor. I used to but al the sudden I can't instead I get this message:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /backburner on this server.
And when exporting I just get partial films, about 80% of the film. Any clues?

Is it possible to lock the CFX output to the broadcast monitor so that I can see the changes I make on the image in the broadcast monitor while working in the 1-up view? This way the CFX schematic can fill my 23 inch computer screen. So far i have only been able to do that with the 2-up, etc views. As soon as I switch to the 1-up view or swipe to the left while in 2-up view (which switches it back to the 1-up) the broadcast monitor shows whatever I am working on be it schematic or other.
When I am in the 2-up view and I lock the right part of the 2 up view to the broadcast monitor I usually maximize the left view to fill the screen. It however does not fully fill the screen and keeps the right view scaled to a very small size on the right.

When I go into CFX/Action my broadcast monitor switches to the schematic view. Since I already have the schematic view on my computer monitor I want the broadcast monitor to keep the final output. I looked in the preferences but I can't find the right setting. Is there a away to do this?

I'm using a new iMac and Pegasus R6. If I put 1080 ProRes footage on the timeline it plays fine with the unrendered resize on it. Resize is only changing bit depth. The minute I render the clip, it will no longer play without dropping so many frames that it is unusable.

I know we can mute a complete video layer. But how to mute a videoclip (element) on the timeline? Just imagine I have 4 versions of all shots each in one layer and I want to play the timeline like this:
from the first cut shot no1 in layer 1, from the next cut shot no3 in layer3, from the next cut shot no2 in layer2, etc etc ... and the director wants to see 10 combinations ASAP in FCP I can mute an element...

When I enter Stabilize/Track through the Axis editor I arrive at a blank viewer screen with no footage. I get tracker target boxes, but no footage to track. Stabilizer/Stabilize works fine, but the tracker does not seem to work.

I've got an issue seeing video on video track 1 when I have something on a track above it. I have video on track 1, and above that I have a gap with a text fx placed on it (it's a lower third name key). The track indicator is located on the track with the text fx (see the attached "timeline" shot), yet all I see is that key without seeing the video below it (see attached "canvas") Everything has been rendered, so I don't understand what's wrong. And when I export the timeline, the black remains.

Whenever we try to import video clips they show up as all black. The length of the video is there, so it might be 15 minutes of black. But no matter what video (Sony, Red, etc.) it's all the same.
We're running pre-release 3 on the latest iMac. As far as we know the graphics card is compatible.

I imported an AAF from Premiere Pro and the media came in separately from the video. So I have a video clip and a separate audio clip instead of the two together. Is this because I chose "Save Sources Separately"?

I have tried exporting a video several times now and it simply won't. The first time the export got interrupted, then after that it processed the audio mixdown but none of the frames. At first it made files in the specified location that just wouldn't play, but the last few times no file was created.

If I am working on a timeline with my main video track, and I am using a second version for my offline reference footage (So online footage is on V1, offline footage on the V2.1 track), when I go into the Axis effect editor or CFX editor, how can I preview my offline footage as a layer so I can check alignment. For example, I may be doing a split screen effect or reposition within Axis or CFX, but I need to see my offline reference so I can have a baseline for my effects.

I am currently trying to set my audio to coreaudio line out, and video to my kona.
I quit smoke, changed to coreaudio in the smoke setup, hit apply, and then quit the app. when I restart smoke it tells me that it is disabling the audio output due to an audio / video mismatch.
Below I have three screen shots. The error message, my system sound panel, and the smoke setup window. Why I am geting this error?
I'm running 10.8.4 with a kona 3g, and smoke 2013 ext1

New update seems to have caused any QT with audio and video to be locked together....ie if I lift the video, it'll lift the audio, or if I apply an effect to audio, the video becomes unrendered, where previously it wasn't. Used to be able to modify or edit without V&A locked together.....

I'm attempting to get Smoke 2012 SP1 running on Mac OS X 10.7.2. After installation, I cannot get the application to launch -- instead I get a "DlVideo Error: No video list" error and then exit.
Hardware specs are attached, in short 2 x 6 core Mac Pro, 24GB RAM, Quadro FX 4800 and Kona 3G. This is built on a clean install of 10.7.2 using the Apple video driver for the 4800. The display is an Eizo ColorEdge CG303W, attached to the 4800.
I would like to install the 4.1.28 CUDA drivers to enable the Mercury playback engine (as this machine will probably also run Premiere Pro), however I'm trying to keep it as simple as possible until I can get Smoke running.
A Euphonix MC Transport and MC Color will be added to the station, however they are not currently attached.
My workstation name is bc118-s001. I'm using an external license server (macnv3), which is running properly.
Storage is currently set to the local disk, which I know is sub-optimal. Ultimately the storage volume will be a fiber-attached TerraBlock 24D, however I'm upgrading that device from 4.6.4 to 5 before I put the unit into production, and would rather not store any data on it before the upgrade.
I've attached the application and shell logs for your reference. The following lines are only the errors from the app.log:

I notice that the monitor refresh rate is not being detected properly, however the OS seems to detect it properly.
These lines are the errors from the shell.log:

Any tips for synching audio with on-camera reference mic? Also, once synched in timeline, is it possible to merge audio with video and create a clip that can be organized in media hub/bins?
