Hi Rossi,

We also came to the same conclusion here. It seems that Encore has a limit of 1400 bits or something per text line. The solution for us was to decrease the textsize and then it was fine. Another problem was duplicating the original project and work from there and then duplicate once more. Better stick to the original project. I rebuilded the project on a Mac with CS4 and now it works fine!

Thanks for your reaction.

It seems the menus are not the problem. The problem starts when Encore is encoding the timelines with the subtitles. I have Chinese, Japanese and Russion subtitles, maybe they cause the problem. The project is 16:9 and I’m on Encore CS2 on a PC, XP.

just some extra info: When inporting the subtitles I gave the titles a light outline. In the timeline color set I chose almost black as a fill, stroke is 0%, anti alias 100%. The option ‘create anti …’ is not selected. I have some moving menu’s and some normal, each menu has two different highlight groups.

Hi Joe,

Thanks for you help. Finally I just imported the PAL subtitles, they lined up just fine, sometimes with a few frames difference. I repositioned them according to the PAL timecode and now it looks fine! No need doing timeconsuming conversion.

Thanks Jeff,

I think I go for almost black, that looks the best so far.

Hi all, thanks for the comments!

I’ll try your solution Bouke. I’m from the Netherlands as you already guessed. You have some nice tools on your website!

Anders, if I look for mxf I find millions of posts. Can you describe how to export directly from FCP? Do you use the sony mxf plugin?

Regards,

Frans

Thanx,

I guess I don’t need a wrapper, it needs to be a real MXF file. Thanks for the link. I also heard a MXF export option for FCP is being developped.

Hi,

thanks for the quick responses. I use the 10 bit Uncompressed codec in FCP. I rendered a couple of animations in AE in QT uncompressed (none) format, and once imported in FCP it looks like FCP sees them as RGB.

regards,

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for your advise. I’ll slave it to the beta then! It’s a pitty to found out it doesn’t work like I’m used to.

Thankx,

Frans
