Well that explains it fully! Now what codec to you suggest to convert it to? Also what program should I used to convert it?

Thanks! I completely forgot about the loop expression, that’s perfect because it gives me complete control. A wiggle expression was my first idea, but I realized it wouldn’t be a consistent flicker.

Thanks for the tip! Yeah, I can’t imagine it only being 64 bit, like you said a lot of plug ins would have to become upgraded. But maybe adobe has something in mind to still incorporate non 64 bit plug ins to keep them working.

I’m upgrading to windows 7, i’m staying 32 bit. I’m getting:

An I7 quadcore
8 Gig’s of Ram
A video Card recommended by adobe, havn’t picked yet

Do you think that would be sufficient?

I panned images for one of my recent videos. When you click on the image on your time line and look at the transformation properties there is an option to change the position and scaling of the picture. If you keyframe these properties you can move and scale your picture around to get a similar effect. Make sure your images are larger than your video resolution or else distortion could occur when scaling. If you don’t know how to keyframe you can google it, its a simple concept.

Assuming that you are talking about it looking jagged while playing in the time line and not after you have exported it; this is a normal occurrence (for me at least). It usually happens if you are not viewing the video at a 100% in the window. You have your video at fit, fitting it to the window can sometimes give you that jagged look. Also interlacing can sometimes cause the same effect. When you export your video (and deinterlace it) it should be completely normal.

You may want to check your actually audio track on the time line. On the left hand side of the track there is a little box you can check to turn audio tracks on and off. If that is not the case, click the file in your library and click play at the top of the library panel. If you do not here sound it is most likely an error from importing or converting. Have you played the audio in other programs without issues?

Thanks a lot! I think I got it.

Thanks for the tutorial, and I will check out that preset, because getting the washed look is what was causing my problems.
