Card Dance clash

[Kevin Camp]

i would have to assume that you are encountering an error within card dance.

the only two things i can think of that might have an effect on this would be make sure opengl is disabled for previews (preferences>previews, uncheck ‘use opengl’) and is not set to be used for renders (from the render queue, click render settings, uncheck ‘use opengl’).

if neither of those options are checked (or it doesn’t help), try adding cc force motion blur to the card dance layer. this may not eliminate the issue, but may reduce how noticeable it is. in addition it will significantly increase render time.

Interesting. This I haven’t considered. I’ll check the OpenGL when I’m back at work tomorrow. CCFMB I originally wanted to add as regular motion blur doesn’t register but I knew this would increase renders significantly. I’d use it as a last resort on the final piece if this OpenGL check doesn’t alter it. Will update then.

Thanks

Unfortunately the OpenGL didn’t change the problem. I’ve added Force Motion Blur which softens the effect enough to make me happy to go ahead and use it for broadcast. As expected it increases the render time but it solves the problem & on this occasion we have the time to spare.

Thanks for the advice.
