Re: [Avid-L2] Avid Pan & Zoom Selective Functionality

 

This is true in 7.0.4 as well.


I've discovered that the file path must be short. I don't have a precise count, but I've moved all images into a root level folder called "Images" and kept the folder structure underneath short and sweet as well. Even so, I still run into an image now and then whose path I have had shorten. 

If it is now broken worse than this, I'm in deep poo on this project.

Second bug: Some images do not load at full res if the original dpi is not set to 72dpi. This does not happen very often, but when an image clearly is not loading at full res and looks blocky and magnified, I modify the dpi to 72 and reload and, so far, this has fixed that problem. Yes, there is absolutely no logical reason this should matter, but sometimes it does.

Cheers,

I have recently upgraded to MC 8.0, and have discovered that Avid Pan & Zoom no longer works reliably as it did in MC 6.5. I have seen some posts about it here and elsewhere, and the point seems to be that some stills import just fine, while others just show up as black. As a documentary-maker, I use this tool quite frequently, even if it is somewhat rudimentary. Apparently the issue is where the file of the still is located, and what the file structure is. Does anyone have any more information about this? Quite confounding to find this basic tool of editing so buggy!
        Thank you, Steve
