  • Strange SWFX error in Xpress Pro

    Posted by Tom Nelson on June 7, 2007 at 3:23 pm

    While working in a project that seemed fine, I received a strange error message: “Exception: SWFXCONS_DIFFERENT_SAMPLE_CNTS.” I received the message after I attempted to apply a color effect to multiple clips. I restarted the computer and recycled the Mojo, and also attempted to open my sequences bin from a new project. The error shows up when I try to do anything. I can click OK and it goes away until I try to do anything else.

    There is nothing about this message in the AVID forums. Go figure.

    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Just a guess, but do you have mixed resolutions in your timeline?
    For example, DV25 at 4:1:1 mixed with 1:1 at 4:2:2?
    “DIFFERENT_SAMPLE_CNTS” may refer to the color sampling.

    Hope this helps.
