Rendering issues with dissolves
by Roy Woods jr on Jun 29, 2008 at 4:19:44 pm

Hi, how are you doing?

So here is my problem. I am runniing liquid 7.2. Everytime I add a dissolve/crossfade to a graphic and render it out as a AVI, Flash, WMV, etc. I get a disorted picture and a green flash over my screen. When I am playing it on my Liquid timeline, there is no problem. Only happens when I render it out as a DVD or streaming file. But the dissolve/crossfade works fine when I am using it on video footage. Only have prolems when I am using graphics from PhotoShop, Title Deko. Can someone please help me. I have tried everything to no avail. Is very annoying when you cannot use any dissolves on your lower thirds or stills. I thought my graphic card was a pretty good card. I am starting to think maybe it is not strong enough. Cannot think of anything else. Let me give you my graphic card and cpu specs.

Graphic card = GeForce 8600 GTS.
Total available graphics 256mb. Dedicated video memory 256mb
DirectX version 9.0c

Cpu = Intel(R) Core (TM)2 CPU 6600@2.40GHz

Any help would be appreciated

It is your graphics card. That is a DX10 card and Liquid does not work correctly with that card. A fix is in beta test right now and hopefully will be out very soon. I will post a link here to it as soon as it is released.

In the meantime, the only solution is to install an older DX9 card.

Thanks Lew. Right after I posted my problem on the site, I read other threads where people were having the same identical problem. Hopefully the patch comes out soon. I think most likely I will get another video card next month. I do not know if it has already been posted or not, but does anyone have any suggestions for a good affordable directx 9 video card that works well with LE 7.2?

Try one of the ATI cards. I use a 1950 Pro card. But, just about any recent ATI or nVidia DX9 card should work fine. I prefer ATI with Liquid.
