HD rendering problem
by robin dupuis on Apr 29, 2008 at 1:05:35 pm

Went rendering HD (1920 x 1080) particles, Combustion doesn't render the full resolution... It crop the image in a letter box mask...
and the same project in 720 x 480 the image is full frame?

Any cue why this happen?

Combustion 8 on XP

Many thks,

Hi,

Not sure what to tell you I'm not having that problem here. Are you sure you have your render output size set properly?

Thk Kenneth

Yes, my ouput is at
Format: nc avi
Frame: full 1920x1080
8 bits

etc...

And in my project windows, my composition is also full frame
But it still render in a 1920 x 680 frame set, it crop top and bottom part of the frame (... letter box)

I've just update my combustion, but anyways even in my old version, i've never been able to generate full HD from a particle composition...

Check that the "source footage" for particles layer set to the proper aspect (1080x1920, square pixels).

Thk Jeff

All my project are square framed.Changing the aspect ratio, doesn't change the result, i've tried many variable.
but i've tried to switch the resolution in the ouput from 1920x1080 to 1080 x 1920... still letter box,
and in my source footage is a ''None- solid frame'' set at 1920 x1080.

Ah well. I've always found particles in combustion useful but problematic. I usually find myself making an output for the particle layer and rendering it separately to disc for use in the larger comp. But I have not tried much in HD with particles.
