HDV quirkiness
I’m finding that HDV files that I render out of other programs (eg. After Effects, Shake etc.) won’t play back in FCP. They give the old out of memory type error message. HDV that I have captured in through FCP plays fine however. Even other codecs that I render in FCP on a timeline don’t give me any problems.
Why?

If you use the exact same codec in AE or Shake that you are using as a sequence setting, it should play just fine… you’re finding it doesn’t?

I discovered this as soon as I upgraded to AE 7 quite some time ago. I do not know what the issue is, and have not found a solution. Using the AE present for HDV, identical to the sequence in FCP. When imported, it does not show a need to render, yet will not play back. If i recall, I was geting a dropped frame dialouge. It’s been awhile since I revisited the issue. I’ve been rendering to the animation codec and re-rendering in FCP.
I’ve had others verify the issue. Perhaps someone has come up with something since?Jim

Robin,
upon re-reading your post, and seeing it also happens with Shake renders, it must be an FCP issue. I’ve been assuming it was an AE issueJim
