    Hi everyone!

    Please help me with a SmoothCam. It doesn’t work. I’ve just installed ProApps Update 2008 but without any result… Could you tell me how to fix it? I’m trying to use the Effect by dragging it to a video clip but nothing happens..

    Not sure why it doesn’t work, but when you get it working, the best tip I’ve gotten is to make the clip you want to fix stand-alone. If you don’t, SmoothCam goes back the original file (which could be really long) and analyzes the entire file, not just your edited portion. So, export the clip and re-import it. It will be mucho faster!

    Actually, just had this same exacty problem, UNTIL, I output the file i wanted to analyze as a quicktime file, not AVI. I believe it was the formate which was the issue. This might seriously help. 🙂 Woohoo! Honestly psyched over hear now I figured it outl. . . Phew!. . . saving the shot I hope 😉
