There is no custom transition in Smoke 2013.
I try to do so by creating an axis transition and match the contents.
It just matched the whole clip with wrong in and out point.Then I try to swap something with the transition.It said two targets of the same type is required.
Does the Swap Effects work for transitions?
It is pretty simple and smooth in Smoke 2012.
Using the axis transition how would I go about creating a push, it sounds so simple but I've been screwing around for a little bit and haven't done it.
I've done a "slide in" on my incoming clip but thats just half of it. Also, I saw somewhere that you can reveal the axis nodes on a timeline axis effect, but I'll be damned it I cant remember how.
I have tried to get transitions between clips by using the transition button by the FX button on upper left of timeline box and by using the hotkey shortcut command T neither inserts a transition.... What am I doing wrong

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to use stabilizer to smooth out a camera motion but immediately getting into problem with using stabilizer as I could not find any comprehensive manual on utilizing this feature.
I have one problematic very important clip with the uneven camera motion: camera moves at a certain rate and suddenly drops or increases in speed. It is around 5 min clip and involves some long panning with uneven rate of camera motion.
It is not shaky as the camera was on a tripod all right just the operator was a little bit drunk and spoiled the hole shot.
Anyway I spliced (cut) the lengthy clip into several segments where I could be able to find a distinguished feature to apply a tracker.
Then I applied an Axis FX through a timeline FX. In the "Axis" main menu I chose "Stabilizer". But in the Stabilizer Menu in the preview window I cannot see my video frames and there are boxes of tracker on the black background. How can I apply tracker if there is no footage seen in the window?
I can't start smoke neither 2013 nor 2012.

Now that Smoke 2013 PR3 has conforming tools again, I'd like to run the following questions by you before I look at producing more training videos on conforming for the Smoke Learning Channel.
In the legacy Smoke 2012 videos, I showed a workflow for working with RED R3D using Final Cut Pro 7 and QT proxies going to Smoke 2012 using the original R3D media. Would you still consider this valid and should I do the same again ?
There are quite a few variations and you already know so I am interested in your workflows so that I can make videos addressing them and the questions that will come up during this process.

I know in the smoke 2012 on OS X you were able to set your keys as Flame. Is this possible in Smoke 2013 beta 5 ?
Also, when in connect FX can you make a hotkey for pan and zoom ? Seems silly that you would have to change that manually every time but I am sure it is user error.
i have an internal hard drive specifically meant for Smoke 2013.
can't seem to find the way to change the location for the installation,it keeps on installing on the main disk.is it even possible to install it in different hard drive?
how LUT storage should work with Smoke 2013, but I think I'm seeing a bug.
I'm loading a LUT, able to using it as a monitor LUT and apply it to a clip, but when I reload the project, it loses the LUT path and I have to reload it. I've tried storing it on a network, and locally in the discreet folder. Is this a bug.
I was under the impression 2013 worked natively with AVCHD. I have footage from both a Sony FS100 & 700 and unless I'm missing something I'm coming up empty.
The file structure starts with: AVF_Info & Private
Private navigates to BDMV which navigates to :
Clip Info
Playlist
stream
Of those three selections only stream seems to want to do something but when you select it says it's "loading" but nothing happens...I let it sit for 15 minutes and nothing.
working with AVCHD in 2013? or what am I missing?
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 was rendering something with smoke 2013 and I realized that is not using the full processor speed. In the activity monitor showed only 35% of the CPU speed (4 cores) were used while rendering. Is that normal?
(as an ex. I've tested my iMac 3.4 I7 with "lightwave 11" and the software succefully used 100 % of the Processor speed (8 cores) while rendering.)
Would that be corrected or is the way that Smoke used the resources available?
know if there is a keyboard with FCP shortcuts available to buy for Mac, or a set of stickers?

View 5 Replies View RelatedFirst: I ordered the Smoke 2013 (floating-)licence through a german reseller a week ago and I still got no answer. Is this a normal "new years eve" delay?
Second: The Smoke installation is on a computer that's OS was actually cloned from another computer. The HostName, LocalHostName and ComputerName were changed, but Backburner still insists in using the "original" name given at the OS-Installation. So if the other "clone-computer" is running, Backburner gets in trouble and is stuck on waiting. During the troubleshooting process I turned on websharing to access [URL] ..... This led to the result, that anytime i restart the machine the computername is changed to 0.0.0.0 and the backburner wount work. No way, yet, to bring this back to normal.
Third: Waiting for the smoke-licence I already begun working on the project. Now it seems that I'll have to do a clean install of the system to get it finally running. But I do not want to loose the work so far. Is there a way to bring the actual project back into an new installation of OS/Smoke without having to archive it which does not work at the moment?
I have one of the Promise R6 drive arrays that has failed on me but fortunately it hung in there long enough for me to back up all my data. My questions is once my new array shows up can I copy all the data onto the new drive with all the same folder hierarchy and will it all work fine with smoke again as if nothing changed?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm currently running Smoke 2011 on a Mac Pro and we are feeding a Professional Grade 58" Panasonic Plasma equipped with HDMI and Component connections. We are unfortunately limited to using only the HDMI connection because Smoke 2011 doesn't support component out. Using the HDMI connection means we're limited to a 60Hz refresh rate which, generates flickering cross fades, and strobing with fast moving video. The component connections allow us to utilize a 100Hz refresh rate which eliminates these issues. After a little research, I have learned that Panasonic does not make a professional grade plasma monitor that supports higher than 60Hz through HDMI.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a problem everytime i apply the axis effect on a clip in the timeline. What happens is that smoke starts loading the effect, but hangs there, and after a while a message comes up saying that due to a software error smoke must close. But the only way to close it, is only if i do force quit process through terminal. Everything else works really well though, besides this specific issue with axis effect. This by the way didn't happen with Smoke 2013 SP2, maybe a hardware compatibility issue?
