Movie and transition glitches with 4.2 on Mac

  • #1, by paedtSunday, 03. May 2015, 05:42 10 years ago
    Hi all,
    I've upgraded to 4.2 on Yosemite, and am immediately noticing a couple of serious bugs:

    First, neither the in-studio player nor the built game will not honour fade transitions that I've set -- for example, I have a number of scenes that fade to each other via the "fade over" or "shift right" effects, but every one dips to black now.

    And second, none of my movies will play. They're all .h264 MOVs, and worked fine before. Now they will freeze the game and cursor until skipped.

    Reverting to 4.1 fixes both of these problems.

    Any ideas? I must admit I'm a bit stumped.
    Thanks!

    The video files should be .mkv (matroska) with vp8 & ogg (vorbis) codecs, or webm format, I believe.

    Please see the links below for the recommended audio, video & image formats...

    As for the scene transition effect, I don't have a clue.

    The transition effect is currently broken on Mac as the ttf with borders. We're working on it.

    Okay, thanks for the updates. I'll hold off on 4.2 until that's resolved, at which point I'll see about re-converting the movies as well.

    Hm… I've tested it with an H.264 test video from H.264 directly.
    http://www.h264info.com/clips.html
    The Bourne Ultimatum – 1080p Trailer

    And it works here @ yosemite.
    Can you try out this too or send me an Movie from you. But an VP8 Video has the same quality and makes sure, that you use an license free codec smile

    I gave it a try with the movie you linked, and it still wouldn't play for me.

    Since then, I've also tested with an mkv file encoded with VP8 -- still not working.

    I am on a Mac Pro -- could that have an effect?

    Lee tried it too with Yosemite and different H.264 & mkv movies.
    Normally not.
    Can you give us an log file from Applications > Utilities > Console
    clean all -> start the player and if the player freezes, give us the log?

    Certainly. I'm putting the Console output in a spoiler tag below...

    Interesting! smile
    So, you have an dump, why ever. But this is good for us to find and fix it smile
    An crash dump has been written to: ~Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports.

    To find this log file, please open ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/ in the Finder. You may have to hold down the option key when using the Go menu in the Finder to open the Library folder (this is needed on Lion and above).

    And send me all files with: Visionaire-Studio please smile
    Crossing fingers, that we find it smile

    To clarify, it looks like none of the dump files in the location you specified date past April. I do have a crash dump generated today in the System DiagnosticReports folder (vs. User) -- is that what you mean?

    (Thanks for your help, by the way!)

    I had been wondering why is the directory not in your user directory.
    The crash dump path in your log file is: /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports.
    Normally OSX uses the userspace for this. ~/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/

    Then try it with:
    Cmd + Shift + G (go to folder) and enter: /Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/

    /Library is Systemwide and ~/Library for the userspace.
    Seems you're running OSX Server? I've never been seen this before.
    But we have our dump smile
    No problem for the help, we want fix all things we can do.
