Office Space

I looooove office space!!

I haaaaate when A:M 11.1 's renders flash!!

Anyone have a clue why it does this? Look at the tv on the right, it like flashes and stuff. This only happens when I render out of the A:M 11.1 beta

Man! That's a bummer. Is it rendering from only one computer? One straight render session?

[pleavens]

Is this from a tga sequence, or was it first rendered to avi, and then converted to

wmv?.

 

In other words, do you have an uncompressed version of this that has the same issue?.

 

If it's clean in tga sequence or raw avi, I would try Quicktime Sorenson 3.

Looks like a compression artifact to me. It is common for compressort to reset frames at evert 30 frames. It is user defined but the default is 30. CHeck your targa files first. If the targa files have the same problem then you might want to report this to support. If you don't render to targa, then we can't say for sure what's causing the problem.

Thanks for the help, I'm rendering to .avi and I have the same problem with the render right out of a:m, so its not the compression.

I'm rendering to .avi and I have the same problem with the render right out of a:m,

 

Unless your render is to RAW avi, you can still be generating compression artifacts. The only way to be sure of having zero artifacts is to do a tga sequence render, and test it.

I think I figured it out, the compression for the avi was automatically set to 75% . Could this be the problem?

[pleavens]

That and the codec used could be the issue.

 

It would still be best to render to TGA, and then build your video from there. It's MUCH faster to build different versions of videos from a TGA sequence, then it is to re-render the entire AVI each time.
