What is the best way to import swipes into AVID? I was under the impression that I could import as a .mov with audio and place on a separate video track to be used as a transition. However when I do the video does not look the greatest. Is there another way to do this so that the video looks great and the audio also follows? I hope my question makes sense. Victor |

At the bottom of this page is a swipes video, it will show you the basics of using Juicer 3 and swipes. Basically select the settings you need for your project and let the juicer process it for you. http://www.digitaljuice.com/support/tutorials/juicer3/default.asp _____________________________ mattjanowsky.com (in reply to Victor V) |

Hey Matt I followed the tutorials. When I go to import into Avid I get the option of importing as an RT Matte or Create A/V Clip. When I import as Create A/V Clip the swipe does not seem to work correctly. When I import as RT Matte I have to place video and audio separate but it looks and works correctly. Do you have any suggestions why this might be? Thanks Victor (in reply to Victor V) |

To avoid confusion you should tell us what Avid software you use, as Avid MC/XPress and Avid Liquid are way different. From what you wrote I guess you use Avid Liquid.

I have the same import settings. How I am asked if I want to import as a RT Matte or AV Clip. When I import as an AV Clip there seems to be no alpha channel but audio and video are together. Are you saying that I render the files separte in the juicer and then import separate into Avid? (in reply to Zacbray) |

Yes. That is how I do it. The TRACK OPTIONS gives you the choice of rendering it out of J3 as a audio/video movie or as seperate pieces. I prefer to have them seperate. _____________________________ Fred Matthews Spot Prod.
