is there a way i can automatically fill these frames out correctly. manually inserting the 3 digits will take me ages?

[Mark Francis]

look at the attached file and youll see my first frame didnt render, could this be why? all the frame numbers are correct.

got it making movies from my stills but some of my tiffs wont open. i get this message

[Mark Francis]

i tried opening in qt but all i got was loads of single frame renders opening up on my desk top. and i dont know how to use motion. if you could go in to detail or step by step how this is don it would be appreciated

cheers

cheers its sort of working. thin is when i import the stills and place them on he timeline and hit space to play i cant see anything playing in viewer windows. instead i have to click on a frame to see it in the viewer and only that frame is seen throughout, although the playhead is moving.

please take a look at my settings to see if they are correct, cheers

this is good advice but i dont now how to use compressor to shrink my file sizes can you give me instructions?

[Mark Francis]

what i want o do is keep the movie on my desktop and play it but not at 141 mb file size but something like 29mb file size. so how can i shrink 141 mb to 29 mb to free up some hd space?

Sorry but your explanation is inadequate. If you don’t want to delete the file it must have some future purpose. You can make any file small an unviewable/unusable. If you need to free up hard drive space you should archive the file at full resolution.
