I have a .mov ProRes 4444 that works great on the mac verson of arena and keeps alpha channles, however on the PC the clip wont even load into the deck?

When I use MPEG streamclip to convert it kills the alpha (even though it says it keeps it) and give me big black backgrounds.

Any suggestions?

Joris, I had saved the preset as a name, BUT didn't realize it was separate from the Comp when saved so I made a bunch of changes to the "Advanced settings" and over wrote the Preset. I have it figured out now lol.

Thanks for the info and compliments! Actually pretty simple setup for this. All effects are just in the video files themselves and are at most fades with alpha channels. So...I am able to keep everything layered and in a single column. I am sure some streamlining could be done but works so far. The ...

I created a new Comp which I thought created a new preset instance. I started editing and saved only to realize that is saved over my old show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why are they separated! I assume there's no way to get back whats been saved over.

Why isn't a new instance of the presets saved within a ...

Trying to figure out the same question, different scenario.

Lets say I have:

Layer 1 = 10 min clip

Layer 2 = 5 min clip

Layer 3 = 2.5 min clip

If Layer 1 plays for its duration but I ...

I'm unfamiliar with Ravenscs controller but it appears he is a user? Are you talking about the think linked in his signature?

I don't think that will work. I need to stop the possibility of dragging Layers into other columns (which I can remove all columns) and stop things from being changed.

If the computer is backstage unmonitored I don't want a stage hand messing with it.

I have a setup running that needs to lock the layers from being moved from columns. Once the show is set I need it lock from everything but Play pause and Load. Is this possible?

In a very simple 3 Screen setup, Advanced options sometimes get lost behind the output. These doesn't seem to be a function to bring all windows together or snap it to the Arena main screen.

2 of my screens are in another room so I cannot make changes to advanced output until I get the Advanced ...

I actually swapped to Nvidia. Less issue with drivers and that Radeon is so incosistant. I purchased 3 and 2 just don't work.

While the larger Nvidia cards don't have 6 direct outputs the Dvi and DisplayPort options can split on most cards.

A card with 2 dvi out can power 4 non mirrored outputs ...
