Hi - this is for MC 5.5

Want to apply 3 sapphire effects to a series of still images (on V2) with a push
between them, over a graphic background (on V1). The stills are not full-frame.

1) How do I apply the effects & transitions to the stills without effecting the
background layer?

2) Is there a way to apply all 3 effects at once, or even better to a range?

Thanks for your help.

A few months back I upgraded to MC 6 and now 6.0.1. I also rebuilt the system to W7 and added more new ram. I'm trying to open a couple of old projects to delete them and their media. When doing so it tells me I am unable to open the file. When I look at more information it tells me DISK_ACCESS_DENIED and the message above in the subject line.

I'm an experieced Avid editor, so here's my quandry. I understand the projects themselves are corrupted from moving around, but I can access the bins and media through another project. The issue is that the bins are locked and trying to delete the media in the second project doesn't work because of the lock. I even tried using media tool but it doesn't see the media where the bins say they are located. I've also gone into the OHMI and MXF files on those drives and can't find the media there either, so now I'm on a search and destroy mission.

Any suggestions on how to unlock these bins or delete the AWOL media files? I'm going to start going though every drive to try and locate them. I have five!

Thanks...

Hi, all,

I have created an image for burning to BD from a copy of the same project we wrote about in my previous post.  You may remember, it's complicated with buttons to play the acts of the play separately, and menus to select only the songs, and certain character sketches.

I've burned it to a BD-R DL.  It looks good and the menus work fine, except the highlighting is not working correctly.  In the Simulation, both versions appear to be working the same way, and correctly.  On the DVD version, the text appears correctly, with its cream/beige outline; the highlighted selection appears with the additional yellow outline.  The yellow changes to blue when the selection is clicked.  This is what I expected in the final product.  However, on the BD version, all the texts that are also buttons are outlined with the yellow intended for the highlight.  The text that is not a button has the cream border as expected.  Only when the button is selected by the navigation buttons on the remote does the cream outline appear inside the yellow outline.  I have not seen the yellow change to blue after the selection is clicked; but, the correct action was taken to move to the submenu or play the movie.

I wonder if the problem comes from using a copy or the original project, rather than creating the BD image from the original DVD project.

Or is this a bug in AvidDVD?

Best regards,
Bill

Hello....

I always export QuickTime Reference from Avid MC and import it to the Sonic DVDit pro. This time too.

But when I created a disc image file, burnt that to a blank DVD, it played well in computer, but failed to play back in a Phillipse  DVD player showing 'No disc'.

Please help me a way out or find another way of the authororing the DVD.

I have Soreson sqeeze too..if that can be of any use.

Cheers

When exporting a long  (1 hour +) sequence to quicktime MC6 keeps failing with the message  error "cqtexportworkingthreadbody" 

Exporting a QT ref works but I cant use that because exporting a  DV50 sequence adds the 6 lines back in to make it 720 x 486 instead of 480

any ideas or a workaround?

Running MC6 and have a long format program I need to burn to an external DVD burner. As a result, I'm playing from the timeline. About 45min. in the video begins stuttering like a mother. I've seen several posts regarding the issue, but nothing concrete to look at.

I'm running a core I7 with 16gigs of RAM and I'm using a Black Magic Intensity Pro card for outputting. I've done video and audio mixdowns, but the same.

Also, when trying to burn internally by exporting a Quicktime Ref. the video breaks ups badly after the burn using Sonic. Hence the need to get to an external burner.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Hello,

we are trying to render 5 clips that have been elaborated with the Chroma Key effect of MC6.0.1.1. There is no chance to let MC render all clips in one time, after it finishes to render the first clip MC stops working and gives an ACCESS_VIOLATION error (VideoEffectConsumer -- Unexpected status returned from RenderEffect)

The only thing to do after we get the error is to exit MC and start it again.

We have an HP Z800 computer with all Avid required hardware and software settings. (We also have a Blackmagic Decklink HD Extreme 3D card).

Can anyone help us?
Thank you

My mother board had to be replaced and when I installed the new one it Deactivated my Avid. How's the best way to go about Reactivating it? I no longer use a dongle..
