I have just completed anumber of AVI from Revit averaging 100 -200 meg each.
Outcome is Awesome at shade and shadow,
25 f/p/s
1400 total frames
acceleration set to .1 - to .3
image frames 400x300 ( better for projections).
256 meg graphics card.
The AVI's on their own are perfect for what I want which clarity, controlled speed and 2D path controll at developed concept stage.
Heres the But.....!
My "Poor" little vehicle for streaming AVI and high res JPEGS together into a presentation to the client has "previously" been......MS movie maker. Previously I have had had only 1-2 AVi's with stills with average output quality which was acceptable at feasiblility.
In my final presentation I had 5 movies and stills totaling nearly 1 gig (no full rended images either). MS Movie "maker" degraded the AVIs to the point that I was waiting for Charlie Chapman to leap into the frame! when played on MS Movie "Player"
In other words the AVIs were terrible and pulled the whole presentation down which is unacceptable especially after 24hours at the PC solid (nearly killed me).
I have had to out source to a TV graphics consultant to achieve clarity.
I would like to know what :"Vehicle" Revit Peeps are using to deliver AVI and JPEGS on?
There are freeware progs around, and premier for streaming footage together at a cost. I know A/Desk have some products. Are you using them, do they work?
Interestingly I contacted my A/D resellor who said they have no vehicle as they simply do single AVI's to date, which puts us a little in the pioneering arena down here in hobit land.
Any assistance appreciated.
