Man, same here. Just discovered this. Just lost about an hour of work because of this feature. That’s a terrible design, because it encourages you to NOT save very often.

Ok, clearing out the memory cache seemed to be the fix. Thanks again! I suppose over the 8 days of editing suddenly a corrupt rendered file was created, because I had been outputting the same footage with no problems up until that point.
Hadn’t realized until your post that, like AE, Premiere Pro allowed you to clean out the memory cache.

Clean my media cache? First I’ve heard of that. I’ll give it a shot. Thanks Dennis.

Ahh, ok. Fill Right with Left or Fill Left with Right effect. Got it. Thanks!

Not sure I was clear in the above post, but I’m talking an audio track already edited into my Composition , not in the Project window. I realize I can do this with the source audio in the Project window, but I thought I could also convert a stereo clip in the composition to a mono clip. Is that possible?

Ahh, right. SHIFT-Pickwhip-parent the text to the camera, then move it out into Zspace. Should have thought of that. That works. Thanks Michael.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for the response. Those are good techniques. I did a bad job of explaining what I was looking for. Let me try again. I shouldn’t have used the word “snap”. I’m not talking about animating the layer to suddenly snap into center frame.
I just want a quick way to get a text layer centered in front of a camera and aligned in front of the camera so it is screen level. I’m not animating the text, I’m just trying to get it in front of the camera and save the time I spend dialing in the orientation of the text to match my horizontal guides to it looks level. All in 3D space. Why don’t I just use the text in 2D space and avoid all that hassle? Because the camera has to fly up to the text in 3D space. And when the text is set to Auto-Orient, it’s always oriented towards the camera, but I don’t want that.

Quick update. Mary responded to my tech support email. Some original problems I was having had to do with this footage being interlaced. I deinterlaced it in AE and brought it back into Mocha. That actually fixed other problems I didn’t mention, though not the fact that the “remove” would quit arbitrarily.
Lesson being: Though Mocha seems to handle interlaced footage fine, I would recommend deinterlacing before you bring it in to Mocha.

Ahh,ok, was overthinking it. So it’s just a matter of setting the color profile to rec709 and linearizing the working space.
Thanks Ivan

I use Form and Particular a good bit, and I don’t believe it can do this. DOn’t know about C4D, but Lightwave 11.5 could do this, but you would have to know the Bullet feature to pull it off. Looks like a Newton thing, though I haven’t actually used Newton. (but I like the name!)
