Crossing on same layer

[netnull]

Hello,
im testing Resolume with 2 video projectors who works simuntanesly during a theatre performance.
I've some problem and I still didnt get solutions.
I tell you how I've organized Composition
I've 1 layer for left screen, 2° layer for the other screen and then one more layer for audio tracks.
I've to mix (crossfade) 2 videos on same layer (so mix 2 videos on same screen). I still didnt find any way to do it.
The only thing i can do is to fade in each video passing trought a black. (I'm doing that using Opacity of Clip set to timeline - is that a right way?)
I hope u'll help me to find out asolution for my problem
Best regards

resolume avenue has a crossfade function. are you certain ou mean resolume 2 as i see you mentio you are using a layer for audio.

I'm using Resolume 3.0

Do you need to cross-fade on both screens at the same time?

If so, then you need to setup 5 layers:

For screen 1:

Layer 1 assigned to crossfader A bus (press the A button underneath the layer controls), contains half your clips
Layer 2 assigned to crossfader B bus, contains the other clips for screen 1

For screen 2

Layer 3 assigned to crossfader A, contains half the clips for screen 2
Layer 4 assigned to crossfader B, contains the other clips for screen 2

Layer 5 for audio

Now you can set the crossfader all the way to A, start layer 2 & 4 playing, fade them in by moving crossfader to B

Start layer 1 and 3 playing, and fade them in by moving crossfader to A

etc.

Thx alot for help. Tomorrow i'll check it in theatre.
I've another question that is making me more than crazy

I've got some clips made in HD (1440x1080 - 1080i25). I need to use them in Resolume but i dont find any solution except open them in Final Cut Pro and then export as a Quicktime with DXV codec. The only BIG problem is times of export.... For 3 minutes clip it takes 14-15 hours of export!

I'm sure there is another way....can anyone help me? I'd be deeply appreciated

Hope to get any help

I have the same problem for export from adobe premiere a clip maked with AVI not-compressed video...
If I convert the avi video in divx (for example)...the conversion is faster...

But I would keep the uncompressed file format!

DXV will indeed take longer to compress, but it is a lot faster in playback. If the compression time is too long for you, on a Mac, Photo-JPEG is a good alternative codec.
