Re: Time FX Clips Disappearing

I've been experiencing similar issues with Time/Motion Fx since installing v12.x. This was my first step in upgrading from 8.2.

From day one, Time Fx have been a pain: most of the times,when rendering, picture is wrong, like rendering from different TC. Worse, sometimes, rendering these FX diplays still for the first few frames and then starts, etc.

Of course there's a bunch of work arounds for these problems and one of those is to NOT render these time fx, if you can Use Preview Online, and try, if needed, to export using Other - QuickTime Movie and choose Option - your Preferred Codec (I usually go for Media 100 NTSC/PAL 720, like a Self Contained Movie) and then go to Compressor or Bit Vice to Encode for DVD. Also very usefull to output unrendered FX for client approval through QuickTime downoads.

But, of course we need to find our way out of these situations that slow down our Workflow.
