Thread: Crooked footage?

  1. #1

    Crooked footage?

    Morning.
    So, working on a show here. All is going fine.
    Multiple machines, and running total of 48 layers across 2 machines.

    All is going well until i shoot a file that has black and white triangular footage. no big deal. Its mostly consisted of black and white wipes.
    Horizontal wipes are clean and parallel to edge of bottom frame.
    Vertical wipes are at a 45deg angle. I zoom out and the footage looks keystones like this...

    Its weird. And there is a green line on the perimeter of the angle.
    Only these few clips do it.
    I have re-rendered them, cut them, and looking at them on my desktop they are 100% correct. Into catalyst, they are angled.

    2 machines, same thing. re-render, same thing.
    no zoom, no xyz, no aspect, no rotation... I'm at a loss...

    any ideas?

    Thanks guys!

  2. hi there

    what is the resolution of the files you are playing back on Catalyst? There can be playback issues if the resolution is not a multiple of 16 pixels
