Troubleshooting Video Post
While Video Post offers many useful functions and creative effects, invariably
you will set up a queue that looks like it should work or even appears to render
correctly only to give you an animation that does not include the desired
effect. Here are some troubleshooting tips to reference when a queue just isn't
doing what you expect.
There are two key things that can cause a Video Post queue to fail. The first
is incorrect ordering and nesting of events in the queue. The second is faulty
positioning and/or overlapping of the range bars.
When you come up again a problem, especially if you're attempting to set up
a very complex queue, the best way to diagnose the problem is to create a new
queue that should only result in the effect that is failing. If you can get the
simplified queue to work, you can compare it to the structure of the failing
queue to see what might be out of order.
Here are two very common scenarios that look like they should work but
ultimately don't give you the result you expected. These examples are shown
in their simplified state, but could very easily be buried in more complex
queues.
■ The object simply disappears instead of fading out.
The first example illustrates a problem where you expect the scene to render
for fifteen frames before fading to black to finish the animation. However,
at frame sixteen, the scene abruptly goes black.
