pahntom frames when exporting as quicktime movie
I am trying to export a sequence for use as a track in a dvd project using dvd studio pro 5 to author. When I expot the time line as a quicktime movie I get a phantom frame from the clip I am transitioning to using, in this case, a page peel. Nothing I do to change this fixes the problem. I have even built a new sequence from the start and no luck. This frame also appears when I render the sequence. I’m stumped….. HELP………… RM

Make sure you have enough video handles to do a successful transition from the end of the outgoing clip and the beginning of the incoming clip. For example, if you’re doing a 1 second cross dissolve between 2 clips you need at least 15 frames at the end/beginning of each of those clips. Failure to do that will reveal any video clips below the two you’re using for your transition. Hence the reveal of your “phantom frame”.

Sorry, but no luck. I have tried so many things my mind is spinning. The transition seems to grab the first frame of the incomming clip before the page turns and nothing seems to change it. I’m starting to think there might be a problem with the transition generator but it doesn’t do it all the time. I transition to and from the upper layer which seems to be the only way it will sork to begin with. I tried to but the clips together and it wouldn’t take it and would default to a 9 frame transition. RM

Then I think one of those video clips has become corrupt. Are you having transition problems with just those 2 clips? Have you tried creating a new sequence with the 2 clips only and seeinig if that works?
Maybe take one of the clips into a new sequence and try a transition to a completely different clip. If that works do the same with offending clip number 2. Try the 2 clips transitioning together without the audio. Sometimes an audio file corruption will affect the video. If you still have access to the original source clips try capturing again to see if that makes a difference.
All I can think of at the moment.

I actually think it is a flaw with the transition software since it allows a transition from an upper layer down but not from a lower layer up. It seems that the page peel can’t lead into a clip only out. RM
