OurMikeyRocks Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 When I look at loading a "picture" effect I find that it accepts .jpg, .png, .bmp, .gif, and .tiff files. When I look in the PE Help file I don't find any material addressing "picture" effects. What are some of the rules for inserting pictures? What size should the images be? What works? What doesn't work? Is there a way to insert video into the effect? Mikey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_b Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Mikey- it all depends on what you are inserting the picture to. I am making a Pixel Matrix this year and so I have chosen the pictures I want to use and used the Paint.net program to resize them. I made the pixel size the same as my Matrix so I can see exactly what its going to look like and make any touch ups that don't fade the way I like. I've also made my own pictures in the Paint program the same way. I've saved them all as .GIF files and put them in a specific folder so I know what they are for.

lkcubsrule Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Going to re-resurrect this for the sake of organization. After I save my PE Intensity file, does it save the images, somehow, in that intensity file, or are they still 'linked' to the file? When running a show on a second machine, do I need to worry about re linking all my images back into the sequence, or am I safe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering it asks to choose a file I would think that it is going to use that as the place to look for them. You could test it by moving the pic and trying the sequence out. If you pasted the picture in then I would say it is being retained in the LOR file. SPaschall Edited October 26, 2016 by SPaschall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little_b Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 It should save it in the intensity file. I moved all my sequences over to my show computer, but didn't take the pics with them, and they play fine. Now if you want to make changes to the PE sequence in any way, you will need to re-choose the picture file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattBrown Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 That is correct. The files referenced in picture and movie effects are needed for editing the sequence in PE but are not needed for playback in SE or the Show Player - as their data gets incorporated into the intensity data file.
