Resolume Forum

Hi all.

When I try to export video from Photoshop there is no DXV option, is there a work around?

This is for a live improvised show where illustrators will quickly be creating their content on Photoshop and pass to me to play on Resolume so because time is precious I'd like to avoid having to open the files on another app such as Media Encoder in order to be able to export as DXV.

Any suggestions?

At the same time since the animations created on Photoshop will be quite simple with only a few frames should I even be worried about using DXV? Would I get away with using the Animation presets?
My set up:

MCB 2015 - 2.5Ghz
El Captain
Resolume 5.04
Resolume composition will probably only have 3 layers.

Thanks

Here is what you need to do:

• - Create a new folder (let's call it [Animation to DXV]
  - in Media Encoder, choose that folder as a Watch Folder
  - Create a preset for the DXV format you want to use (let's say HQ with Alpha) and use it for that Watch folder
  - In Photoshop, in your Render Video interface change the destination folder to [Animation to DXV]
  - Render your animation (let's say Animation High with Alpha)
  - As long as Media Encoder is open, when you render a video in Photoshop, it will automatically encode each export to the Codec you chose (after your first render you will find two new folders in your [Animation to DXV], [Source] and [Output]) and your asset will be available in DXV3 with Alpha in the [Output] folder
