time remapping in 6.5, layer doesn’t extend to infinite

[Graham Quince]

Hmmm, i’ve come across a slightly irritating problem, and i wonder if its a setting that can be changed. i’ve recently upgraded to 6.5 and one of the things thaty seem different is that when i enable Time Remapping on a video layer, the possible length of layer doesn’t extend off the screen. i can time remap within the layer’s original length but can’t see how to make the whole thing longer?

Does anyone have any ideas???

Have you tried lengthening the host comp?

Did you time-stretch the layer before you enabled Time-remapping ?
The maximum length of a solid, still or time-remapped layer is indeed always the length of the comp (or the footage-duration if that’s longer), but that value get’s multiplied by the speed setting you’ve applied to the video.

I did stretch the layer, but found that the time remap keyframes also extended. I’d be more than happy for the time-remapped layer to be the length of the comp, but unfortunately it falls short.

It’s just strange because 6.0 didn’t do this 🙁

You’re better off setting the speed back to 100 % and then adjusting your keyframes to achieve the same (fester) effect.
