I first followed the manual video and did everything step by step but then realized i needed to add ffmpeg which i couldnt figure out how to add to PATH. I then tried installing smoothie the automatic way with ffmpeg combined into it thinking it would be easier. Now i have 2 smoothies in "Send to" when i try to use them on one of my rendered clips. Smoothie and Smoothie-RS. both dont work and show up errors. If i can figure out how to add ffmpeg PATH to the manual one i think it will work idk.

#

right screen shot is the manual one

fading harness
#

the video youre trying to render is in a OneDrive folder

#

also they give different error messages because they are running different commands

#

one of them is verbose logging (-v) and the other one doesnt have -v

#

exact same problem tho

mb

fading harness
#

whats up with your video name and directory name

raven orchid
#

erm idk my mc clips just randomly started doing that

#

and i didnt feel like fixing it

fading harness
#

are you using obs

raven orchid
#

now i am yeah

fading harness
#

its not that hard

raven orchid
#

sure

fading harness
#

go to obs, settings, advance, and there should be a place where you can type in clip name format

raven orchid
#

appreciate that

fading harness
# raven orchid

as for this, try moving the clip to a more normal directory like downloads or desktop and rename it to something super simple like "clip.mp4"

raven orchid
#

found it thanks

fading harness
#

i feel like this is just a parsing issue on smoothies end

raven orchid
#

they become unusable once i change the name

#

interesting

fading harness
#

unusable in what way?

#

the .mp4 part is still there right

raven orchid
#

i think it friend the clip LOOL i tried using smoothie on another clip in desktop and i think its working

#

ur the goat

fading harness
#

🔥

#

make another supp ticket if you got more issues

#

or just keep using this and ping me idrc

raven orchid
#

i have this one application called blur and i think it drops the video down to 60 and does stuff to it before i put it in sony vegas, do u think thats fine to do? or u think its just doing to much

#

running the clip through all that

fading harness
#

not both

#

also use either blur program before editing

raven orchid
#

alright

#

use smoothie before? or after

fading harness
#

unless youre recording in 60 fps already or outputting in your editing program at the clips native frame rate than use smoothie before

raven orchid
#

i think its at 600

#

obs

fading harness
#

kinda depends on your workflow but generally smoothie before

fading harness
#

yeah that's fine

raven orchid
#

yeah

#

bet so before ok

fading harness
#

if you wanna make full use of that, and still just use smoothie after editing instead of before, export in vegas or premier in 600 fps

#

if youre doing stuff with slow motion editing id recommend frame blending to like 120 or 240

raven orchid
#

i gotta see, my obs kept crashing because i was using to big of export settings

#

my memory

#

kept saying to low

fading harness
raven orchid
#

sure ill send

fading harness
#

i just need your output -> recording settings and also replay buffer settings

raven orchid
#

wait im fried i meant sony vegas

fading harness
#

oh your vegas is crashing?

raven orchid
#

idk if u think i gotta change anything

raven orchid
fading harness
#

otherwise these settings are fine

#

unrelated but you should also check thus

raven orchid
#

idek what that is

raven orchid
#

ohh ok

#

stats dock interesting

#

never knew that

fading harness
#

its good

#

if youre getting more than 0.5% skipped frames while recording and playing normally than lower ur recording fps

raven orchid
#

so i should look out for dropped framer?

#

s

#

oh skipped frames ok
