Hi Guys,
Sorry about not responding earlier. Joey and Brendan, yea, you’re completely right. There was no need at all to export the TC. I was basically running on autopilot at the time and didn’t really stop to think about the fact that I didn’t need it at all.

Andy,
Just to follow up. I messed around with the TC copy and paste for a while until I realized that I didn’t even need it, but I never got it to really work. I was able to copy the TC track into the target .mov file just fine, but what I noticed, was that it would only start the TC at 1:00:00:00 and never before that (ie: 0:59:50:00). Anyways, not a big deal now, but thought I would give an update.

Thanks everyone.

Hi Dave,
I was hoping you might come to my rescue. I’ve set up my composition in AE to start at 0:59:50:00 so that I can 2pop and all at 0:59:58:00, and start at 1:00:00:00, but whenever I rendered out the final QT, it wasn’t in the movie file

Andy
Good idea on the QT copy paste TC, hadn’t thought of that. I’ll give that a try.

Dave,
If Andy’s idea doesn’t work, anymore thoughts?

Thanks a ton guys, I really appreciate it.
Cheers,

I doubt anyone will see this, but what about for this expression?

veloc = 7;
amplitude = 80;
decay = .7;

amplitude*Math.sin(veloc*time)/Math.exp(decay*time)

right now it starts at the beginning of the comp even if i try the split and duplicate layer trick. any help would be great.
