No it wasn’t a for a client fortunately. It did crash but I believe I had hit the save all command several times that day. The next day I opened and couldn’t find it. If I change a sequence name is it supposed to be a searchable named file in addition to the project name?
Dear Walter,
That was it! I didn’t have FC set to the file’s native rate (it was 1080P not 1080i). Then when I set the secondary downcoversion to crop it works like a charm.
your are right. I didn’t realize that I’d upconverted until after I’d captured the footage. Guess I could render it all in Compressor but shouldn’t this work in realtime?
thanks Joe for your time. Quick question: for longform HD PP4 projects we are considering either Axio LE or cineform w/ an AJA card. We do a lot of color corretion, vari speeds, dissolves and lower third titles and multi camera editing which we really want to play smoothly. (rendering for perfect final HD SDI output is OK but not for normal playback) We suspect Axio being almost 2X more $ will easily outperform Cineform.
We did the subtitles in Word & imported them which we could do again in CSR w/out too much trouble. However we spent a lot of time laying them out in the frame for each subtitle of each language which would have to be repeated. Is there any practical way of exporting all of these out of CS2 in a way that could be imported into CS4 with their layout preserved?
We get this error report when opening our complex CS2 projects in CS4 : “Proxy stream does not support requested functionality.” CS4 seems to open simple projects properly.
I got the original folder and tried several times w/ both CS2 projects and now neither open in CS4. I might try a different simpler CS2 project. Thanks for your effors.
OK, We are going to setup a lean folder in our CS2 system of the .ncor file and an identically named folder with all the other files in it, be sure it still opens, then move it into the CS4 system and try opening it.
