Importing movie - help please

Hi,

I'm using Debut 9.

When I try File/Import/Movie, it creates a layer with the name of the movie, but it only shows a white square with a red question mark. No movie.

I've tried AVI and MP4.

Any help, please?

Thanks in advance. :)

Jerky movement

Hello, I made a short practice project which consists of a character flying around on the screen and landing. I made the distance between points on the path as equal as I could, but when I play it the movement is uneven and looks pretty bad. Is there a setting that would help this? I'll try to attac...

Uploading to Youtube

Hi there, I'm using Debut 9. When I render a short (15 - 30 sec) AVI video, then try to upload to Youtube, it's won't upload - just sits there. Most times, eventually a popup says that the sound track is a problem (there is no sound track). It then tries to upload and does nothing. Any clues? did I ...

Re: Debut 9: Stop Walk Cycle & Connecting layers

The walk cycle you refer to is an 'action', have you opened the action window? Yes, that's how I got the walk cycle in the first place. BTW, "walk" is the only movement available in my software... no "jump" or anything like that. Using bone(s) you can pin pictures to vectors. (h...

Re: Debut 9: Stop Walk Cycle & Connecting layers

Just put a keyframe into the timelines which cycle. Excellent, elegantly simple. To resume movement, I found out that I can then copy/paste the original cycle function wherever I want it. You can "pin" any layer to a bone in a bone layer, you can bind several layers to the same bone. Grea...

Debut 9: Stop Walk Cycle & Connecting layers

Hi, newbie back. I appreciate your patience helping me. :oops: So I make a character in the wizard with a walk cycle (which is apparently the only movement available in Debut). I see the cycle on the timeline. I'm having some trouble understanding how the cycling works. How do I get the walk to stop...

Timing issue

Hi, probably another dumb question here, but the user's manual has some holes in it. I have two animated layers that are supposed to move simultaneously in sync with each other. One is an image layer, the other a vector. The objects are set to stop and start at the same places on the timeline. But t...

Re: Debut 9 missing tools

Hmmm..hadn't considered that. (I'm a beginner if you hadn't guessed). Next time it happens I'll check it. Thanks.

Debut 9 missing tools

Hi, I do have the registered version. Half the time when I create a new vector layer, drawing tools are missing, like shapes, etc. :? Also, sometimes when I go to create a new layer, they're all grayed out except for Image and the bottom one. If I close the file and or the prgm and bring it back up,...

Re: Stuttering animation

Thanks. What I was doing was setting image layer on the left in the frame, then clicking on 240 and moving the image layer to the opposite side, so it moves slowly across the screen. I thought the interpolation between key points would make a smooth movement, but like I said when played or converted...

Re: Stuttering animation

Thanks, John! I'll work through those step by step - sounds like some things I haven't seen yet. BTW I'm using Debut 9x, should have mentioned that so sorry if Debut is different from Pro.

Thanx again. Cheerio! :)

Stuttering animation

Hello, I'm new here - the name is Mike. I'm an amateur at graphics, especially animation. I can't even draw much, but I do have a pretty good eye and can do a lot of stuff with graphics software. I have been able to make some short animations - big learning curve for me. My main problem so far is th...
