Thin blue traveling line

[Josh Meredith]

You could render the section of your timeline containing the blue line to a JPEG sequence (Tools, Scripting, Render Image Sequence). Then you could take each of the JPEG’s into Photoshop and fix them, one at a time. Then reinsert the JPEGs into the timeline, making sure the duration of each JPEG is correct for the framerate of your project.

I assume this would work. I have rendered to a JPEG sequence before, but I haven’t gone to the trouble of repairing a series of frames in this manner. It sure doesn’t sound like fun!

Whre is the thin line? If it’s along an outer edge, then it won’t be viewable during playback. Or you might be able to crop it out.

Or is it in a very viewable area?

Thanks for replying, unfortunately it can’t be cropped out.

VV Editor Guy,

Thank you, I sucessfully rendered to a jpeg sequence.(great directions) I got 460 jpg’s. The part that I am unfamiliar with is as you stated, “Then reinsert the JPEGs into the timeline, making sure the duration of each JPEG is correct for the framerate of your project”.

I guess I can just drop the jpg’s back into the timeline one by one in order (is there a easier way) but the two steps below I am for sure not clear on.

1. I don’t know how to find out or set the duration of each jpg?
2. Where would I check for the the frame rate? Do you mean the 30 fps it was a NTSC uncompressed .mov?

Thanks so much,
Jimesyco

File – Import – Media – pick the FIRST JPG file, click the “Image Sequence” checkbox, and they’ll all be imported as a single event.
