AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Export Timeline With Handles
Sep 10, 2012I have an edit and now I want to export as DPX sequence. A couple of questions:
First, is there an easy way to take a single edit and export it with handles? I realize that I can make a subclip but is there an easier/better way to do this?
I can't find an automated way to set handles on export. I have about 175 shots that I need to export .
AutoDesk Smoke :: How To Export Timeline - Status Just Says Waiting
Jun 22, 2012I can not seem to export my timeline. The job goes to the queue, but the status just says waiting. There is a timestamp in the started column, but nothing is happening. I have deleted, re-exported, suspended, restarted, tried different export settings... I tried rendering to both an attached firewire drive and the desktop of my macbookpro. There is no file in either location.
I opened the service monitor and there is a green status light for all components.
AutoDesk Smoke :: Audio Glitches And Skipping On Timeline And Export
Jan 30, 2014I have been using smoke for about 2 weeks now and I keep having audio glitching and skipping on my timeline as well as when I try to export my project to proresHQ. I am working with proresHQ media and a mp3 music track. Sometimes I can restart smoke and it will go away for a while but it always seems to come back and at random places and always shows up when I export. I am unable to export any projects do to this

AutoDesk Smoke :: Auto Export Of Individual Shots From Timeline

Nov 3, 2012Is there a way to access the timeline within CFX ( much like in Flame ) ? I see the timing button but this doesn't seem to have the same control as a timeline for a specific clip.
Also, is there a way other then "explode one" or "explode all" to go within a CFX within a CFX ( pre comp ) ? i.e. a setup that is then put within the BG of action.

Jun 29, 2012New to Smoke (DS 14 years, FCP 4 years) and hoping to learn it so I can purchase when 2013 is released. Is there a way to zoom the timeline while playing? I searched around but I can't seem to find if it can be done or if I just don't know how.
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: Copying Gap Effects On The Timeline?
Aug 24, 2011It is possible to duplicate/copy a clip/gap effect on the timeline? Or do you *have to* drag/copy it to a Source Area first? In this particular case, I've got 3 gap effects that I'm essentially using as adjustment layers...for some reason I thought I could hold down F & drag them somewhere else in the timeline which would create a duplicate and drag them to wherever I dropped them. But maybe not...? In the meantime, I just copied them to a Source Area, and then dropped them back on the timeline where I needed them, which worked just fine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: How To Extract Section Of Timeline
Oct 25, 2012How do you extract a section of a timeline but keep sync further down the timeline?
I wanted to take a section out near the start, it just had V and A1, A2. There was A3-6 further down the timeline but they hadn't started yet.
For some reason I can't get Smoke to cut a track that hasn't got any media before that point. So, at the section I needed to remove I couldn't place a cut and so when I removed a section A3-6 stayed where they were.
I also tried marking in to out and extract but again it left the other audio tracks.
Such a simple thing, but I can't work out how to do it

Jun 18, 2012There is a shortcut key that I have been using in FCP for years. That is to select the edge of a clip and hit "E" and the clip will extend to where ever the timeline is.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: Timeline Contextual Menu
Oct 8, 2012With PR4 the right click contextual menu for the timeline seems to have been re-arranged to accomodate new features.
As a result, when you right-click a timeline element to remove all effects you have to move your pointer up through a list of about 15 items to reach the "Remove Effect" command.
There also appears not to be an assignable keyboard shortcut to remove all effects from a selected timeline element. (apart from Option+Clicking on the effect in the effect bar which just removes a single item).
Would it not make sense to have this remove effect command at the bottom so that it appears right near your pointer when you activate the menu?A keyboard shortcut binding would be ideal as I realise the contextual menus are probably in a state of constant change at the moment.
AutoDesk Smoke :: Color Source To Timeline?
Feb 13, 2013In 2012 it was very easy to select a gap segment and click color source in the soft effects. In 2013 it appears to be much more difficult, you need to create it in a folder then edit it into a sequence. Am I missing something? I wish there was a color source option in the effects ribbon.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoDesk Smoke :: How To Select Clips On Timeline
Oct 30, 2012I have got some questions:
1. How can I select many clips on the timeline? (I work with a Wacom tablet.) When I press the pen onto the tablet and move it, I can only pull the gap. In connect fx it works, when I hold cmd.
2. If I set markers in the timeline, is there a way to also see them in connect fx?
3.There is a function in Final Cut: When I I select a clip from the timeline and press "f" , I can go on working on its source clip in the viewer. Is there something similar in smoke? I cannot find the name for this function, so I cannot search for it in the keyboard shortcuts.
4. If I render something, is there a way that Smoke automatically copies the file (without copying the effects)? The reason for that question is: I applied timewarp to a clip, then I wanted to go on working on the clip in connect fx, but the length of the clip changed - it was shorter. When I went on working in action and put some lense flares and rendered it, everything was bended and looked weird. It looked great but I did not intend to do something like this.
The next questions are no real questions but rather problems.
5. When I work with audio (audio clip locked), I cannot really cut on the music, because 5a. sometimes the amplitudes do not match the music. An example: There is no amplitude, but the music goes on for 2 seconds. 5b. And when it is correct and I cut on the beat and render it, it is not sync anymore some moments later or when I restart smoke. (It only displaces 1 or 2 seconds from the sync.)
6. Since I have updated from pre-release 4 to pre-release 5, I cannot export anymore. I have read a lot on blogs, but I could not really find my problem. I cannot even press the export button.
AutoDesk Smoke :: Red Footage Resizing On The Timeline?
Jul 11, 2013I'm looking for the workflow for Red Footage.
In our facility, we are shooting 4k HD format. Then we can finish our final project as HD.
I installed Red Rocket and the Red Footage as Half premium debayer (1920x1080) playback in realtime at preview window of the "Media" tab.
However, I insert the same clip on the timeline (1920x1080, same as Half premium debayer), smoke automatically puts resizing effect. When I open the effect, I notice this effect doesn't do anything.

Aug 29, 2012I'm trying to make a PIP in a timeline with Axis. PIP is a easy thing so I made it of course.
But the problem is When I use multiple PIPs. There's no Global axis like in Action, so I couldn't control PIPs at once. I thought make a Gap effect with axis or Container would be work, but It didn't work as I thought.
Do I have to make a mask for PIP? Is there any way to move, rotate, scale them together easily? & Axis could have only one image? In animation view, there's a Global axis and a image axis.
AutoDesk Smoke :: Looping Clips In The Timeline
Feb 24, 2012I was wondering if when I stop a looping clip playing in my timeline, I could have it stop at the frame I stop on instead of stopping at the positioner or in-point. This is a very vital problem I'm having.
I have come up with a work-a-round but it doesn't work near as smoothly as I would like it to.
All I do for the workaround is instead of hitting space when I stop, I hit right alt to set an in point then hit space to stop and "A" to move to my newly created in-point. But it doesn't work as smoothly as it should. I would really like it to perform like playing a clip in the desktop works. It just loops around and when I stop, it actually stops.

Aug 31, 2012I just tried to conform an aaf file which gave me lots of trouble before and with the new conform tools it worked really well. Nice, I really like the way they work.BUT:after fixing missing links and some stuff I went to the timeline to have a look at the edit. There were still some unlinked edits so I wanted to go back to the conform tab to fix this and Smoke instantly crashed.
I cannot go back to the conform tab with this edit without crash. I have to admit, that the aaf is probably very crappy and not well prepared but thats real life and smoke shouldnt crash.If I make a new sequence I can go to the conform tab. If I select the edit again and try to go to the conform tab I will crash again...
UPDATE:it only crashes if the timeline is set as record timeline (red)
AutoDesk Smoke :: How About Linking Different Timeline SoftFX
May 3, 2011How might I go about linking different timeline SoftFX. I've worked out how you can link channels within the same effect using the Animation controls, duplicating input interaction of different soft effects by having more than one selected at the same time and of course link parameters using nodes (duplicate etc) in Action, but not different SoftFX.
What I would like to do essentially is, if I input x500 into and Axis effect on Layer1 it would -x500 on the Axis effect on Layer2. [URL]....
AutoDesk Smoke :: Saving Timeline Sequence
Jul 2, 2012I was wondering if there was a way to manually save my timeline. It seems I can set the autosave for every few min, but I'd prefer to be able to save the timeline on my own, like when you get something perfect and don't want to chance a crash between autosaves.
