Transition between videos on timeline
« on: August 08, 2018, 11:34:52 AM »
I am having an issue with the transition between videos on a timeline.  Specifically, when I have one or more videos that are back to back or repeat, there is a blank space between the videos.  I have tried everything to get rid of this but it keeps doing it.  This was not happening on v5...
I would like to be able to have a smooth cut between videos or when videos repeat on a timeline.  I have already been on chat twice and we have tried recoding the videos and putting ms transitions in place.  Is anyone else having this problem?  If you have figured out a solution, please post it here.

Thanks!

I put a 2 sec blank .jpg immediately before a video and a immediately after it on the timeline.  I also use .flv for all of my video's.  This seems to work better for both smoother playing and smoother transition.

We had to reload the 5.0 Studio and use it for our existing clients and we use 6.0 studio for clients that need larger and faster RSS feeds.

Ron P in chat can send you the link to re-setup  5.0 - Install it in a different location so you can have 2 separate desktop icons for the studio versions.

Hey Paul, thanks for responding to my message...
I also put jpg's between my media when needed to make a smoother transition. We tried flv's also to stop the blanking and no luck.  However, your suggestion to revert back to v5 seems like the only logical option at this point unless the uninterrupted issue is going to be addressed in v6.  I would prefer to have all of my customers on the same version...

Hey All. I have created multiple scenes that i want to Autoplay and have transitions 5 sec between the scenes.
If I manually hit the next scene i get immediately a beautiful transition. But in autoplay mode from left to right, the image of the next scene freezes for a second and only then starts the transition. Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
Thanks in advance, Philipp

are you using an android player? are you using high resolution images?
