AutoDesk Smoke :: Rendering Interrupted - Cannot Process Connectfx
May 14, 2013
i have a rendering problem... rendering a cfx on the timeline keeps interrupting ... I get an error message "rendering interrupted. cannot process connectfx "
I tried to disconnect all footage which lead into action and rendered them one by one to find out which footage is the problem... the 5K red footage makes the problem.what I need to do is to auto stabilize the 5k clip (which was due to a bug(?) not possible inside cfx, so I did it with the desktop tools) than brought the clip inside cfx, added a modular keyer node, than a timewarp node than went inside action... than back to the 1920x1080 timeline
the problem started suddendy. rendering worked fine (keying the 5k footage, timewarping.. axis... ) ... than I added another media into action, did some axis animations and the problem started (but if I disconnect the media I added, same rendering error..)

I'm getting this error message when trying to render a simple cfx with a simple action node inside it. The action node only contains a photoshop file with one layer and the default camera moving towards the layer.
My media cache is set to Pro Res 422.

I got a clip in timeline, apply connect fx then cut the clip (ctrl-v). The problem i cannot uncut this clip immediately , even if i haven't changed/modified anything yet. The simple solver will be throw out one part and trim back the clip. I'm just curious .. Is this normal ?

does smoke have a feature to do 'time offsetting' ? in connect fx (not in action), i have a clip and applied some fx node like blur , CC etc. Now i want to offset or slip the network (media and fx nodes), so not only the media but also all the keyframes from all the fx node. Can i do this ? i use foundry Nuke where this can be done easily. How about in smoke ? So maybe like attaching a 'timeoffset' node to the network.

I 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).

is there a way to put a LUT on a clip, without having to 'bake' (process) it? So I can turn it on and off?
Our process is:
import R3E Raw files with User Settings in Red Log (so the image looks flat, with most color information).
then turn on a Display LUT (which settings would I use here?)
then do the color correction with the LUT on and after I'm finished, turn the LUT of and then export a dpx 10 Bit sequence to the vfx department, so they can work with it (in fusion).

I have noticed that when exporting a Quicktime from release 5 the Background Process window wont show the actual progress so there is no way of knowing if it is working or how long will it take.

I'm sure before there was a way of "creating CFX (R Click on pen) when in CFX, rendering it and then dragging the render directly into the library in Smoke 2013. I cant get it to work.

Is there a way I can render in cfx frame by frame, sort of like the way you can view each frame while it is being processed in batch on Flame? It's extremely inconvenient to continuously have to exit out of cfx back on to the timeline to view rendered composites!

I'm working with 1080i50 footage. Interlaced, upper field (F1). When I apply an Axis effect to a clip in the timeline an render that, the result is wrong.
I'm not sure what exactly it is. Either the fields are inverted or somehow 'melted' into one frame. In the Axis editor the Interlaced/Progressive switch is set to Interlaced. If I set it to Progressive the rendered result is ok.

A DPX sequence I'm importing is coming in with 24P timecode but should be at 23.976. Once imported, I tried changing the timecode track via Tools > Reformat and selecting "23.976" and "Affect Record Timecode" - but am then prompted to process a timewarp over the clip. That doesn't seem right to me since I'm just trying to change the TC and playback rate of the clip without actually affecting picture.

All the footage is available, but backburner starts rendering and the stops just before 100%. So I have a bunch of clips on idle, and there are most of the time only 2 frames missing.... why is that? Can I consider the job done and delete it out of the backburner?

After creating a reflection of a text extrusion in CS6 Extended, when I select 3D>Render the rendering process erases the reflection. The opacity is up and the selected colors are quite visible. This does not happen all the time, just most of the time. Is there something that I'm doing wrong or is this a bug?

I have problem with rendering. I record Videos on my Panasonic SDT750 and they are in AVCHD format. I usually use two options Render video "same as first clip" (whilst all videos are the same) or upload to you tube in 16:9 format. When I start to render, the process starts and just stop sometimes at 2% sometimes at 4% and dosen't show any error message. It worked previously with no problem.
I tried to restart the software, nothing.. I tried to re-install, nothing.. This problem seems to occure after latest update. My desktop spec. should be ok, like I said it worked fine before.
I run Win7 Professional 64bit, processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2500 CPU @ 3.30GHz, 3601 Mhz, 4 Core(s), RAM: 16GB and graphics card: GeForce GTX 570 from NVIDIA.
I didn't make no changes in settings, everything is as it was first time installed.

I am trying to complete my first project in X3 with a new computer. I have done many projects on an older computer with VS 10. I X3 stops working during the rendering process everytime I try to make a video file. I'm making a 4:3 mpeg 2 file (DVD). I have tried several different ways and the most I can get done is 24%. i have tried to cut out a clip..I get a dump file each time that it tells me to send to Corel.

I have a question concerning Adobe Dynamic Links.
This is my problem : I work on After Effects. I have a composition that is rendered quite fast. (almost in real time...)
But when I open the linked comp in Premiere Pro, it lags as hell. Maybe 2x, 3x slower.
So I'd like to know why Adobe Premiere Pro is slow, while After Effects is fast ?

I know that the AJA Kona 3 card has 2 outputs. Can Smoke send one eye to one channel and the other eye to the other of the Kona 3 card? Dual Stream output is what I am really getting at.

Is there any way that Smoke can see/output sub-blacks and super whites? Can't find any way of seeing them on my scope, Smoke just clamps everything. It won't even see anything below zero in order for me to make a correction on it, everything seems to be clamped on import. I'm using ProRes HQ footage.

I am experimenting with Smoke 2013 pre-trial and I am having issues with importing images and video with alpha channels.
1. If I have a layered Photoshop file or png with an alpha channel (a still frame lower third), I see that I can import it as a multi layered clip, but what is the best way to have it in the sequence to show up properly?
2. If I have a QuickTime in animation format or Pro Res4444 format with an embedded alpha, how can I import that file to show and cut it on a top layer to animate above my video?

Does Smoke have selection functionality similar to that of Combustion? As an example, you might want to selectively blur part of an image. In Combustion, you would draw a selection and then apply an operator above the selection to achieve this. I don't see a similar selection tool function in Smoke, but I imagine you could achieve the same effect by duplicating a layer and using a Gmask via the Wipe timeline FX.does Smoke not have a selection tool similar to Combustion?

Whats the dealing with importing TWs to Smoke? I have a show that's 70% keyframed with timewarps and need a way other then baking the effect to bring it into Smoke. It's comming from FCP7 and we have Automatic Duck but neither the XMLs or AAF bring anything other then the first speed of the clip. Any way to retain the keyframes?
