Seeing glitches in the alpha channel of certain imports

Hi! We have some of our graphical elements made in after effects that get imported to tria for playback. They are exported as quicktime .MOVs and typically they import and play just fine. There are a select few elements that when we import them to Tria, we get a few glitchy lines of grey in ...

Thanks for the help fixing our Mira! For anyone experiencing similar issues, in the configuration tool under the RS422 tab at the very botttom is a check box labeled "allow playlist control". That box did not need to be checked in old software but the newer versions need that box checked. ...

Hi! We purchased 2 Mira Tria+ boxes and we have mapped them to our Grass Valley switcher. Both boxes are talking to the switcher and can be controlled via AMP. When I select the first box in the device list I am allowed to see every clip in the video folder, as I should. But when I select ...

We got this issue resolved through tech support. But I will leave the discussion up here for people with future related issues. If you rename the computer name on a Mira box, you need to unassign all channels in the General Configuration in Mira explorer, then reassign them with the new computer name ...

We had an issue with one of our Mira boxes so we swapped it out with another machine from another studio. I made the new box identical to the box we are replacing and tested it, with it working fine. We shut down the machine and made the swap and when we rebooted it, the video channels would not show ...

RE: Datalinq to first 3 filename characters

Thanks for that!!! Although we aren't on the latest version, I still researched dynamic datalinq, but the real question is whether I can use %relid% to poll only the first 3 characters of the file I need and not the entire string of characters. If a still is labeled "101-Paris Hilton.png", can ...

Hey community! First time caller, long time listener. I have been running our still images with xpression for one of our shows. I duplicated 98 .png files numbered 101-199 and datalinqed them to 99 sluglines in the sequencer. As of now I have producers renaming their still images to numbers that ...

Hey! What is the difference between Save and Save All? Im sure this a pretty rudimentary answer, but I cant seem to find the exact wording on the community, on the youtube page, or in the notes. We have had a few issues where our xpression has rebooted and when we log in, our scenes are not ...

Nice!!! We found a bug! Sorry, they are fun to find. Can you put that on a list for the next update? In relation to that, we have noticed that with roll clip on, if you start a media wipe that is 25 frames for example, any source you preset during the end of that wipe also auto rolls. Meaning ...

Hey guys, (probably Les.) We just recently had our switcher upgraded to the most recent versions of frame and dashboard software. We use a 25 frame TGA sequence as a media wipe to a rollclip-enabled video server with a cut under the middle of the transition. Before the upgrade, we used ...

Oh oh oh! Our version of Carbonite is 11.1.2. As for the dashboard panel, we were only working with the official 8.1.1 update. We are downloading 8.3 to see if it works with our panels. If not, we are going to call tech support and have them remote into our computer and look at both the GPIO ...

This question is probably best directed at Les. Using Carbonite Black with Evertz Multiviewer. We are putting our 4 MediaStore channels on our evertz multiviewer wall. We have used 4 outputs to get them into our EVERTZ router. We also have GPIO 17-20 wired between the router and the switcher. ...
