Yes, enabling time remaping closes visible properties on other layers.
It is weird and I’d like to stop it. Any way?

Dave:
Thanks for the input. Yes, if I add some sounds to a comp I SHOULD hear both sounds. But I’m not. I have Audio on and yet if I have more than one .aif in the comp (even if one is pre-comped) I cannot hear audio at all when I do any sort of previewing. When I render out a movie, the sound does carry over, so it’s not completely broken. I have never had this happen before. Still trying to figure it out. As I said I made sure Audio was on….
I opened a new project and did some tests. They all worked so I am really at a loss. Could it be the size of the .aif? The larger one is really quite big although I am previewing only sections as I go through my work area in small increments… As I said, I am a bit stumped.
BTW thanks for the link. Sooner or later I read everything.

could you be a tad more specific. What I mean is, do I need to pre-multiply or do I need to ignore and if the former than with what? Or am I miss-reading your post entirely?
Thanks

Yeah… that makes 100% sense. I could kick myself. Sigh… gotta go re-render the whole load…. Thank god for replace footage. Thanks for your quick answer I’ll let you know if I get better results.

Hi:
1) Thanks for the response. I appreciate the help.
2) I need some clarification.You Wrote:
Use AE to upscale to 720 x 480
Do I tak ethe 640 X 480 Comp (square pixels)and drop it into a DV NTSC 720 X 480 comp (0.9 pixels)? Won’t that stretch it?OR
Do I drop the 640 X 480 Comp into a 720 X 480 comp with square pixels and then fill the back in with black (sort of a perpendicular equivalent to widescreen bars)?
and do a one pass CBR at 7000 (why use VBR ir you have room to spare? Going too high and you will have comaptibility problems on burend discs), and try again.
I used 7.0 in DVD studio pro. When you write 7000 do you mean take the max bit rate up to 7000? Really can I do that? Or is 7000 and DVDSP 7.0 the same thing and I am not understanding. Isn’t 7000 too high?
Thanks for your response.

Ross, Honion!
What year were you guys? Thaks for the posts. Here’s the weird thing. It never occured to me to do the cube filled in. I deliberatley wanted to see through it b/c I thought it looked cool. I’m kinda busy now since I teach at RIT (Yeah, I never left…) but very well and so be it: the next version I do will be totaly filled in.
Thanks for the suggestions I hope I figure out how to pull it off.
Best

Yes you can!!! I did it in a very, very brute-force kinda way. Various people posted more elegant scripted versions but basically I created photoshop squares, prearnaged them in PS for each layer, imported all layers as a composition. I created null buffers and parented them to buffers according to color.
I set them all to 3D layers and then re-parented appropriate squares to one of three buffers. These would then rotate. After each rotations, I dupliacted the comp and killed the keys keepoing the new positions. I reparented for the orientation that the new comp would work along (vertical vs. horizontal) and re-oriented.
Repeat till yer done!
I then lined all the comps up in a final precomp and I was done.
You CAN do it.
Good luck

Aharon’s surmise, I think, is correct.
Every layer that has 3D has collapsed transforms on and 3D switched on. On their own layers they are fine. When I comp them in to teh final is when they die. At that point the precomped layer (I comp it all down to one) is not 3D but does have colapsed transform on. At that point I don’t want them 3D do I? I just want the active camera to look down at the layers wich are flats of 3D imagery. At least that is what I thought it was.
Am I wrong and if so where?

Turns out I missed one 3D layer switch. Yeesh. 1 Switch! Yeesh. thanks anyway.
