  • 1.  DVE Squeeze & Tease Wipe as a Custom Control?

    Posted 11-26-2017 03:14
    Hi all,

    I'm endeavoring to build a simple Custom Control that would serve as a "generic" Wipe for Preview/Program.

    My intent is to use one of our DVE "Squeeze & Tease" Wipes (Lens Flare) as the Transition, but every time I try to build the Custom Control, all I create is a Cut.

    ... Any guesses as to where I went wrong? Thanks for any/all help! :)

    So normally you build it like the following



    Select DVE Trans Type
    (use keypad to enter DVE Wipe Number -- this way you get the specific lens flare wipes)
    Enter effect duration (ME trans rate) ie 20 frames
    Pause for say 2 frames
    press the ME Auto Trans Button
    Pause for the ME Trans rate Duration + at least 1 frame (so would be 21)
    press the Bkgd button and then Dissolve Button (I do this so that the transition area always goes back to a "know state")
    reset ME trans rate to default

    Thanks, Les.

    All of that makes a lot of sense. I'll try that when I get a chance, and hopefully not bother you for the rest of the year. lol :P

    Thanks for the all the help, sir! Take care.
