  • You might need to create a new project. Not sure about your attic, but when I bring sequences and bins from there into the project they need to be renamed. Open the folders and each bin name should a folder IE Sequence. When you open that folder the sequence bin will be saved multiple times, Seq.1 Seq.2 Take the latest version then and rename(PC version) Seq.avb Now you can drop this renamed file into your new project.

    Hopefully you will be good to go.

    What version are you using? Haven’t had any problems like it not rendering effects, have you tried making a submaster and rendering that?

    No problem. Not so much for me, but I think a lot of people who visit the Cow could greatly benefit from the tuts you created. You did a very nice job.

    Possible Ron or Kathryn could host them for you. Personally I think it those tuts would answer 75% of the questions we get in this forum.

    You are correct, I copied the link from a post he had created earlier, but it seems his site is gone. Would be very unfortunate, he had created about 10 podcast tutorials.

    See if I can contact him, maybe he could put those podcasts here on the COW, they would be very informative and answer a lot of encore questions.

    DVD only accepts 8 bit color for highlights, I wouldn’t be surprised that the colors look bad.

    You may need to make multiple menus/autoactive fuction to achieve your desired results.

    David Garret made a nice tutorial showing how to accomplish this here:

    Exactly what do you have to do with the footage? Does it have to remain full screen?

    If I were forced to work with that, I would be looking at incorporating graphics with the video, some kind of borders perhaps with the name of the award. Anything to make the video smaller then full screen.

    Also take a look at blur, unsharp mask. May help to sharpen the video a bit.

    You have safety lines in Encore to let you know what’s considered Action Safe & Title Safe. Now with newer TV’s these mean a lot less then they did 10 years ago, I pretty much still use the safety’s. This way I know that anything I produce will play on any set out there. I wouldn’t ever put anything that I needed to show near the edges of the screen.

    Just built a new graphics workstation, cost a bundle.

    Dual Xeon CPU’s 3.73 GHz, 4 Gigs of RAM, NVIDIA Quadra FX 4500 512 on board RAM. Dual 21” Monitors. Needed to upgrade since half our projects our in HD now, and the performance of the old system was killing me.

    This thing flies on Friday I rendered out an HD project, shadows, lights as a test. Previously rendering with my farm, took 2.5 hours. On this machine without the render farm, it did the entire project in 26 minutes.

    God Bless having a boss that just says “whatever you need, get it.”

    I would probably bring all the graphics into AfterEffects. This would allow you to maintain them as vectors by hitting the collapse layer transformation button(looks like a sun or asterisk). Create your animation then render to the preferred choice of your DVD authroring software.

    It can be.

    There is a place to link in the burning section to the files. Or you can use the Nero software supplied by eDVD to burn it. Both ways work equally well.
