I don’t know about that I have never done it, not to say you can’t, did you try in Final Cut seeing if you can send the video track out to soundtrack… using the automated integration?

are the adjustments to the audio? or audio and video?

If its just audio, bring in a low res render of your video track in to Soundtrack and change the audio…

Did you try a simple restart, and repair permissions?

I don’t know about that… but yes the term king is my opinion of the software, but of course, which software is best comes down to personal opinion and how much money you have…

You picked an interesting problem… for the best results you’ll have to use thinking particles… what I would recommend is that you work through the provided tutorials that come with the software, and find some others on the web to familiarize yourself with TP. Then look for a tutorial on what your trying to do.

Two ways:
1.) go to the render menu or icon and select preview…that will give you low resoultion preview renders

2.) go to the render settings and set the number of frames, size… you want AA quality… then in the save section set the file name and select the format… close out of the settings and click render to picture viewer.

hope this helps…

also look on maxons faqs

First off lets set something straight, MAYA is the king of the modeling and animation world… But if you have to pick between LW and C4D, go with C4D, its easier, and LW seems to be going out, the feature sets for the new releases seem to be less and less impressive, not to mention its interface is extremly confusing. But before you spend money on such things go to blender3d.org and get your self a copy its open source and very powerful, see if that meets your needs before you buy a full package….

It sounds to me like a corrupt set of files in the folder or the folder may be corrupt… I would boot off the install disc and verify your disc make sure there is no data corruption…
