Video crossfades - Can these be cued?

Hi, It's great to see video crossfading finally implemented! Maybe I'm just missing the obvious, but I can't figure out how to set up 2 video cues where I can manually cue when I want the crossfade to occur. I've managed to get the crossfades to work within a slideshow, is there a way within the sli...

Re: SCS 11, starting 2 videos simultaneously

Getting a video to do a pre-roll in a hidden window would be excellent! I'm puzzled by using before end as well. Last year, when I first started using SCS, it was with a show that ended up using videos that might have 20 pause/resume cues per video to get the effect that was needed. I tried several ...

Re: Video preview even when hooked up to projector

Splitting the video would probably be the way to go. The situation where I ran into this was at a remote outdoor location. About 30 minutes before the start of the show, it was decided to move the video operator from the "booth", which was in front of the stage, to the back of the stage, behind the ...

Re: SCS 11, starting 2 videos simultaneously

I found a way to get 2 videos to start at exactly the same time, though it wouldn't be possible to do this in every situation. The video on both screens is coming out of black, otherwise this wouldn't work. 1. I added 1 sec of black to the beginning of each of my 2 movie files. 2. I used a note cue ...

SCS 11.1 RC3 Image fade in/out

Hi, I was experimenting with 11.1 RC3 this morning and I noticed that the fading in or out of still images has a distinct pulsing to them, as opposed to just smoothly fading in or out. Almost as if the fade consists of the image with say 15 degrees of fade and is running from 1 stage to the next wit...

SCS 11, starting 2 videos simultaneously

Hi, I've been experimenting with running 2 video files that I'd like to start at exactly the same time. But it seems that no matter what I do, one of them always starts slightly before the other, even if they were set to start at the same time. It seems that the video that is first in the cue list a...

Video preview even when hooked up to projector

This is a request based on a real-world situation I ran into a few months. It would be nice if it were possible to still have the little video window that pops up on the cue screen when you're testing without being connected to a projector to still be an option even when connected to a projector. Ra...

SCS 11 image sizing/position request for Numeric Input

I'm really glad to see the ability to do some simple manipulations to images. While the sliders are nice to quickly set an image up, I'd really like to see a numeric input for the size/position parameters. Would be very useful if I have several images that I want to apply the same changes to. David R

Re: .avi movie files do not work in SCS11?

In SCS 10 I was using xVideo. In SCS 10 the .avi will also play when set to DirectShow as well. If I set it to SCSMM, the .avi will play the audio, but not the video of the movie file.

.avi movie files do not work in SCS11?

They worked fine (and still work fine) in SCS 10, but won't display in SCS11. SCS11 will say that they are playing, but the time slider does not move, and nothing is displayed.

SCS 11, multiple projectors

Hi, My understanding is that with SCS 11, I can now run video out to 4 separate projectors. My question is, how do I get those extra video outputs? Currently my machine has 2 video outs, one for the computer monitor and one for a projector/2nd monitor. Are there graphics cards out there with 5 video...

Re: Black frame when video starts

Excellent! That works great,

I guess in theory, I could set up a single video for the entire show with a lot of pause & hibernates set whenever I wanted to go to a still.

Black frame when video starts

Hi, New to SCS. Is there a way to have a video cue start playing without having a frame of black pop up when the clip starts? I'm trying to go from a still image into a video clip that starts off with the same still image so that there would appear to be a seamless transition from the still to the v...
