3.02 update issue.
Posted by David Ruby on October 15, 2007 at 11:17 pmHello everyone.
After downloading and installing the new update, I am trying to load in a dv avi file to use.
What I get is this message,
“The framerate of this movie is 29.97, not 30.00… but will still be used”
then it asks to change the stage size. I say yes or no and it crashes the program.
Any clues what happened. I thought dv was exceptable with this update?Thank you for the great service here guys!
I mean that!David R

October 17, 2007 at 12:48 amAny takers on this?
Did I miss something? Should I be rendering out my dv avi from Vegas to an uncompressed avi to use in PI?

Can you play the file with Windows Media Player? If not it is possible you don’t have the codec required to decode the file.

This is a dv avi straight off the tape.
It plays in everything just fine.
I read the post below where the gentleman was rendering out of vegas as an uncompressed avi to PI. I tried this and it works. Is this the practice?
I thought you could just take a dv avi and drop in PI.
Confused.DR

Well you should be able to read any dv avi in pI if you have a codec that supports that format. It would appear you have a codec that supports that format because it plays in other programs.
If possible can find out what codec compressed the file?
So I guess if the work arround works use it but it isn’t the way it is supposed to work.

October 18, 2007 at 4:27 pmIt is brought out of a panasonic camera to a sony media converterbrings it in to Vegas Pro 8. I believe main concept is used to bring in through Vegas capture?
Not sure. Does Elvis use vegas?
I thought another her might as well.
Also I still have to ok through Vista that it is fine to run PI.
I am logged as the administartor as well but it still always asks. LOL
I thought Alan said this might go away after update install but so far nothin a go.
Thank you for your time John. I mean that. ; )David

Unfortunately that doesn’t help me. Could you please open the file in Windows Media Player and do a file properties and it should show the Video codec.
Maybe Elvis or one of the other Vegas guys can help?

October 18, 2007 at 8:04 pmDoes the DV clip contain audio? If so, try importing the clip without audio, and see if that loads in 3.0.2.

Nope still crashes PI.
Starts by first saying the size is 29.92 not 30 again. Than asks to resize stage, I say yes it crashes.
