Re: [Avid-L2] BCC Pan & Zoom Render Limitation

Sorry for the trouble. Indeed we've had some other reports of memory problems in this area and we are currently working on some improvements to be posted in a BCC update in the near future.

Would you mind sending me your sequence offline (or even a sub-sequence containing the Pan and Zoom problem areas) ? We'd be very interested in taking a close look at it and running it through render tests etc. I think you've already provided enough info in your message that we would be able to use our own replacement media and graphics to test the sequence. Thanks, and when we post an update I'll make sure to announce it on the list.

Dirk

The native DSLR file resolution is 2784 x 1848 and I've imported 1080p versions of the stills to serve as placeholders on the timeline for the Boris effects. It's a 1080p/29.97 project and the 44 stills are each on screen for 10 seconds.
