Re: SUBCAP questions

Pulsiom — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 10:08:56 GMT

Ok, here is something that works.

[Information]
Name=DFW Subtitle Workshop 4 to Avid DS Converter V1.2
Extension=*.txt
Time structure=hh:mm:ss:ff
Time=True
FPS=25
Decimal separator=,
New line char=[enter]

[Format text]

<begin subtitles>

{RepeatSub}
{swStart} {swEnd}
{swText}

{EndRepeat}

<end subtitles>

If you want to Avoid Charcropping (which sometimes happens) just insert a space before and after the command {swText}.

{RepeatSub}
{swStart} {swEnd}
{swText}

If you need a software to check your subtitles for math errors (to avoid import problems), just mail me. :)

Avid DS Stereoscopic Containers

Igor Ridanovic — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 00:26:51 GMT

Avid DS v10 is capable of stereoscopic (3D) editing, effects and playback. This tutorial explains the stereoscopic setup basics.

The tutorial comes with a free Horizontal Image Translation (Stereoscopic Separation) preset available at www.hdhead.com.

Since it is hard to change the video once it's uploaded I just want to correct the title. It should say "Horizontal Image Translation" instead of "Interaxial Separation."
