Particle Tools - Quartz Crystal Failed Render Syndrome

cybero's picture

I've just stumbled upon a couple of possibly related Audio Tools problems.

One - probably known about, but only apprehended by me since re-introducing myself to Particle Tools, as follows :-

Starting & stopping an Audio Tools offline render construct, see example attached, that feeds into a Particle Scene, will result in the audio failing on the second and subsequent triggering of the audio.

Two - although this construct - see posted to Repository, Particle Dance, works fine as an iTunes visualizer, it won't actually render as such in Quartz Crystal, repeatedly resulting in a Failed Render message.

Particle Dance Transform

This is a work in progress, a Particle Tools composition that uses OpenCL to create a transforming structure being fed into a Kineme GL Structure Renderer patch containing two GL Tools Structure patches.

The video above is set to the track that helped to create the audio data feed, Minkou e so non moin by Orchestre Poly-Rythmo de Cotonou.

QuartzBuilder, imported movie speed and audio

I like the quartzCrystal app and am going to buy it, but I cant until I know it will work on my videos as well. I know it places the checkerboard as a demo protection.

the video I import into my composition is 4 minutes long, full NTSC DV quality .mp4, and it also has sound. When I use QuartzCrystal to make the movie of the QC I get a VERY sped up movie WITHOUT sound.

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? This is the solution I need, but I cant ring myself to buy it if it wont work for me. any advice?

Quartz Crystal Feature Request

Just a simple request for being able to save custom presets for Quartz Crystal please :-)

Ogg {please support]

Can Quartz Crystal allow for the incorporation of the usual configuration facilities that the various components installed allow for say in QuickTime Pro when outputting from Quartz Crystal ?

Just be nice to be fine tuning output to .ogg and .mp4 for different media types - iPhone, iPod, PC, PSP, etc.
