Rendering Problem: Disappearing Text
I have a very strange problem:
I have type on a background, it has a range reveal: the text types on, and then grows, using a scale keyframe — very simple, however, when I render the clip to quicktime, AppleProRes HQ, lower field — the text doesn’t read on, and it disappears randomly and then re-appears randomly. I don’t have any opacity, or expressions, or any of that jaz going on….
Using version CS4 on a Mac.
Any thoughts? Help.

very strange in deed… if everything looks right when you ram preview, then it should look the same rendered…
things you might try:
- do a edit>purge>all prior to rendering
- reboot your mac
- render to something more generic, like qt lossless animation
if the later helps, you might need to see if you can download a newer prores codec. it may be that it’s not working correctly with your qt version or something…
since it is an apple codec that is part of the fcp pkg, i would guess that it would be part of pro apps update from apple. try apple>software update to see if it find any pro app updates.

I discovered that I had a Sapphire Plugin on the type (spotlight), once I deleted that plugin and replaced it with ccspotlight (not as good) the read on effect rendered properly.
I guess I have to scour genarts website to see if there is a fix/update (just updated those really expensive plugins)….
thanks for the response.

I had a similar problem, when I render with “lower field first” the text desappears, but when I do with Field Render Off it renders normaly.
