    I’d look for someone who sells HP Z-series workstations. Incredibly robust machines, quite expandable as you need too.

  • Ultra Keyer will do this for you rather nicely.

    Fiddle with settings until it plays nicely. Using the “Alpha” display mode will help you find noisy spots, etc.

    The vignetting the screengrab shows may cause some issues, but it looks manageable with an appropriate amount of messing with the settings.

    Which means there was some measure of miscommunication upthread.

    Can’t help you with that.

    From what you describe, it sounds more machine-specific.

    “…when I import an mcc file and then place it on the timeline it only has one track and it is the 608 captions. If I use another computer the file is fine.”

  • There’s a point, as a non-Quicktime person, where I have nothing to add.

    I do, though, make loops in h.264 with AME, working from Premiere, and they do run glitch-free. A client’s recent trade show demo was just one example, using a combination of 4K and 1080P footage and some fairly heavy (at least render-wise) graphics.

    One thing I tend to do when I’m making a loop is to make the first and last frames by cutting a graphic and putting the tail end of it at the head end of the sequence, so there’s a still frame used in the transition. I’ve done it that way for a while now with no issues, and maybe that’s part of a good approach. Do you do your loops in that way?

    Yes. XNView will do this in the Batch Processing tool. You can define what text you want in the file, including filenames, numbering, etc.

    I don’t think keeping it in its own layer is an option, though you could set up a subdirectory for the files with supered names.

    Grab yourself a copy and experiment. The program is free. (Amazing that it can do all the things it does and costs nothing.)

    I think I would look at going about it differently.

    I’d do a batch file rename first, according to the conventions you describe. (XNView will do this and it’s free.)

    Then I’d look at exporting them with the filename supered.

    Worth a look, anyway.

  • What are you using for playback where the MP4 is not looping correctly?

    And most of that can be done in Premiere as well.

    Try a “Windows search” for the project name. Since you know the file extension it should be straightforward. Even a “*.prproj” wildcard search will show you everything on that drive with that extension.
