Nope and it isn’t just in “a” video player… once this occurs it then appears so in all apps. Video editors as well as all players… though when I play it back in blender it’s fine.
I re rendered it in blender with the avi on a plane render at 100% 370 x 200 pixels… and it still happend… then rendered it again on a plane but this time at 100% 740 X 400 pixels… and now it’s fine. (there was a comp reboot between the 1st & 2nd render not between 2nd & 3rd).
I’ve been getting this problem off and on for quite a while now.
yesyesyes… in everything… also video editors that are definitely not direct draw. There’s just a bug in the avi file (can’t be anything else) created by blender.
I’ll try to recreate it in a small avi raw and I’ll post a link
I’m doing 370 x 200 as a web publishing format because I’m doing my actual rendering at 740 x 400 which is 1:85 to 1 (that’s widescreen format), a little wider than 16 to 9 and a standard for movie theatres. I could of course add black bars to my render for web publishing to get the ratios up to a level where they can be divided by 8, but I’d do that in my video editor and not blender.
I haven’t registered quicktime yet and really… it shouldn’t happen in RAW AVI… I also haven’t been able to recreate the error yet. It’ll happen again I’m sure, just not sure when and posting a 144 mB avi would be a bit much I’m afraid.
