Hi all, I’m pretty new to Blender and I’m more interested in the video edit side.
I’ve made a few video’s up to now using the same method with no problems.
My latest video has about 8 clips and between all of them I have used a Gamma cross transition, 3 of the transitions have a problem where the clip doesn’t fade out, rather it goes from the clip to a greyish chequered board image then merges with the next clip correctly. The other Gamma transitions work fine and all the setting seem the same.
I would greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance
Hi,
Did you check if there are any gaps between the clips? Maybe you are a frame or two off? I’m a new user too so I can’t say much more.
Hi, Thank you for your message.
There are no gaps. As far as I can tell the transitions that work are identical to the ones that don’t, setting wise.
If I grab the first clip on the right hand handle and drag it left, the chequered pattern fades away, but the clip is then too short to use.
Taking another look at it,
It looks like the first clip isn’t being selected, even though it is highlighted. As I drag across the first clip into the gamma cross the image goes straight to grey chequered squares, then half way through the transition the second clip starts to emerge
I found a way around the problem. If I do a soft cut a few frames back in the clip then add a new Gamma cross it solves the issue
