  • Horizontal Shit after render

    Posted by Roddy Jamieson on September 30, 2005 at 8:50 am

    I have just completed a one minute piece and after it has rendered during the playback the picture jumps left about one line and then moves back to its original position about 30 seconds later. My Comp has 8 layers of animated text, 1 photoshop graphic and a netsed Comp. When I scrub on the AE timeline nothing moves!

    I re-rendered and after a 4 hour wait, it still does it but not in the same place????

    I am using G5 with 4gig and Blackmagic 10bit RGB.

    I dont believe that the AE render engine does this, so it must be the BM codec.
    Have you tried rendering to another codec and viewing on VGA?

    I remember a similar problem a long time ago with FAST hardware we solved by changing values in the settings files for the hardware. If you only render this codec & monitor with decklink, it might be possible to get
    into a settings file for the DL or AE settings for DL.

    On PC these are *.ini files – look for a #render#shift parameter.

    Just a thought.
