I'm facing a serious problem with my Co-rel x2 in getting it to cut some inappropriate scenes from an episode of AVI type stuff. The thing is after scanning and deleting the unwanted plans, I cant save the separated selected project as a whole ; and what is worse, the voice is completely gets out of whack! I am desperate and don't know what to do!
View 1 RepliesI am importing some .avi files and burning to a disc. Most of the .avi clips are fine on the DVD, but two that have panning sequences are very jerky. I checked the source .avi files and they pan smoothly.
I've explored changing the Speed to Quality slider and also the Frame Type (Upper/Lower field first) setting to no avail.

I know that VS can capture DV and split-by-scene and add the date to the timeline. What I was wondering though, is there any easy way to render all of the split scenes with the date information as separate files?

I have a lot of experience with Vray for Sketchhup and have never encountered this. I attached an example.

I have 2 files that are acting weird. They were created earlier this summer but when I open them now, 99.9% of the geometry is invisible with nitrous and the file is very laggy. I want to get an alphabetized list of the geometry so I can start merging in pieces and keep track of what I'm doing.
Any way to export a list like that?? Or better yet..how to trouble shoot the bad files?
I get a warning when I open another max scene on another machine here at work, it says:
"The MassFX authored in this file was created with a newer version of the plugins. Forward compatibility is not supported so things might not behave properly."
I am currently using PhysX for Max version: 2.7.1.0202.1800 and PhysX System Software 9.11.0621.
Third party plugins installed for Max being used in the scene are: Rayfire 1.57.10; Orbaz Particle Flow Box #2 ver. 1.07 and #3 ver. 1.53. I've gotten this warning in scenes saved from another PC, opened in another, and not even using any PhysX or PhysX capable plugins.
I have got some levels for games I'm working on and a lot of the items have to seal off perfectly, etc etc.
I often cannot snap to any item in an XRef Scene under some circumstances. I think that these are scenes that are failing because some are referencing each other and access stops for some reason...
In the examples:
Scene 1: Referencing Scenes 2 & 3
Scene 2: Referencing Scenes 1 & 3
Scene 3: Referencing Scenes 1 & 2
When editing Scene 2, I am able to snap to Scene 3, but not Scene 1. I don't know if it's something about a reference being an overlay (which all are) and the ordering it loads... I know that in the XRef Scene dialog it lists them (in example above) as Scene 3 above Scene 1 ... but I have not experimented with removing one and inputting them in another order... since it seems that any time I delete a scene from the list in an XRef scene dialog, Max crashes.

A collegue of mine will save a file in Maya 2012 (a character model) yet, when I open the file, I only see the cameras and image planes. The HUD shows zero faces, verts, etc. When he opens the same file again, all the geometry appears.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am running Softimage XSI 7.5 Mod Tool on a Windows Vista 32 bit. I cannot open any of my saved scenes, when I do I get an error.
I have done some research and found two things, one, that using a registry fix for windows is the cause of this problem, and two, that the fix to this error is to run the "runonce.bat" file from the "bin" directory. I used a registry fix recently that not only didn't seem to improve my computers performance, but it also stopped XSI from working properly. Apparently lot's of people have had this problem and the fix is fairly simple.
However, when I ran the runonce.bat file, it failed to work, I ran it again this time with a command to produce an error log, and this error came up on about the 25th line: "oleaut32.dll: Registration failed; Result == E_ACCESSDENIED".
Here's where it get's confusing. I created a second windows user, this one not an administrator, logged onto it, and ran runonce.bat. It did not produce the error seen above and instead, when I run XSI from the second user, I can load scenes just fine. But I log back onto the admin account, and the problem persists.
Obviously I'd like to be able to use XSI from my admin account like normal, instead of having to use an "XSI" account. I am fairly certain that runonce.bat's error "oleaut32.dll: Registration failed; Result == E_ACCESSDENIED" is the reason that runonce.bat seems to have no effect.
I'm using Maya 2012 with thirty fluid containers and the scene takes over 45 minutes to load.
What is taking so long to open the file? How can I reduce the time it takes to open the scene without removing the fluid containers?
While working in a drawing xrefs that are attached to that drawing are getting saved "behind the scenes" by AutoCAD.
Specifically one instance was a user changed his working annotative scale while in model space, and this caused all of the attached xrefs to re-save themselves (you could watch the files update in Windows Explorer). He did not save the drawing he was in, just changed the annotative scale. This is worrisome in that we are still between 2011 and 2012 on some projects and I'm worried that a user opens a drawing from a 2011 project in 2012 to look at something and in the background even though he doesn't save that drawing, the base xrefs will get updated to 2012, forcing an unplanned version upgrade for Civil 3D objects.
I had a time where I shot some home videos on my old Sony DV camera (type2 DV 29.97fps) and also some on my other digital cameras of various models which recorded in mjpeg (20fps), h.263(30fps), mpeg4sp (29.97fps), and even a few .asp. I want to combine all these in chronological order on DVD. But I worried about which format to choose when rendering such a mixture, since I've heard that type 2 DV should be lower filed first. Will that mess up the way the other files are rendered? I was wondering if i should render the DV out to DVD compliant mpeg2 first and then add in the others in another project.

I realise there are pros and cons to this question and the temptation is to opt for the highest quality, but the file sizes are huge. So, my camera files will be mainly 1080 files at 30fps, what will be the best file type/size to save files for future use. I don't really mind the rendering time and space isn't a huge problem, but the variety of file types is bewildering. Most clips will find their way to DVD but I don't want to reduce resolution as they might be used at a later date for Blu-Ray.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm new to edge animate but have a Flash background and I'm working in Edge Animate on a game which is structured in several scenes. Each scene I did put in a symbol. Now I wonder how to build the main timeline or the "story - controller" so to speak. I have all the scenes but I do not know how to connect them.
Â
In Flash it was possible to add keyframes of scenes one after another (like stairs) and jump forward or backward if needed to load the movie clips. In Edge Animate all scenes (or symbols) are in place from the beginning of the timeline and I cannot move the symbol to a later keyframe. Of course I can move animations in the timeline. The only way I think is to hide the symbols first and make them visible if needed. But this does not seem to be the right way and I don't understand the concept of structuring complex animations yet.
Â
I would like to know how to structure several scenes in Edge Animate properly. Something like a scene loader or unloader would be useful.
I created a number of models/scenes and applied materials/textures to them using bitmaps that are in another folder. Â
Â
I then created sub-folders for each of the models/scenes because I wanted to export to .obj and then copied the .max files to those folders. Â I then opened those .max files and the materials/textures were showing as normal.
Â
I then exported to .obj, so in each sub-folder I then had 1 x .max, 1x .obj & 1 x .mtl files. Â Problem is that if I now open the original .max files in the normal way, the materials/textures are not showing and a message comes up saying that the bitmap files are missing. Â I don't understand why this is, seeing as the .mtl files are there in the sub-folders along with the .max & .obj files.
I'm using AI CC now, but I noticed this problem in earlier versions of AI: If I want to place a one-word label on an illustration I move the type insertion cursor to a speific point on the screen image and click, but then the flashing insertion point, where the label will actually start, pops up elsewhere, usually a line or two above where the cursor was, and a pica or two to the left, forcing me to type the label, then move it into position rather than simply typing it in the right place and moving on. The problem is merely annoying, but I'd like to fix it. It's probably a matter of ignorance-I simply haven't read the right documentation, but I don't know what to call the problem. Where can I find out how to change the position of the cursor relative to the insertion point?

View 3 Replies View RelatedWorking on a poster in Illustrator. Have added area type, using the type tool. Now I'd like to increase the size of one line. I can't select or edit any of the type with the type tool. I moved the type to a new layer, saved, closed Illustrator, restarted my Mac (OS X 10.7.4). Looked in preferences, in case there's an issue there. No luck.
Â
By the way, I also don't see handles when in the selection tool any more. Don't know if that's related.
the type tool won't let me insert any type whatsoever in JPG or PSD files. I click the type tool and then click somewhere on the image and all it gives me is a dot but no flashing cursor. As I said, resetting my prefs/settings while starting up Photoshop did not help. Another weird thing it does is that when I go to Canvas Size for a medium sized image, it says that the width is 588 inches and the height is 288 inches.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI choose the vertical type tool or the vertical type on a path tool or the vertical area type tool...and all I get are letters that are rotated 90 degrees clockwise that go down in a vertical line. The effect is the same as if I took one of these lines that I am typeing here and rotated the entire line 90 degrees clockwise. That is not the effect I want. I am tying to get vertical letters stacked on top of one another in a line going vertical. I watched videos and they simply pick the tool and it functions this way, but when I pick the same tool I do not get this vertical orientation of the individual letters, but the 90 degree rotated letter.Â

I then click on any Panel property, and the text in this layer is replaced by text from another layer in my document ( a paragraph layer, let's say), but the color is not the same as the layer the text came from.
