Only fix listed is AVC rendering.

Just tested on a render that previously failed with error - "message missing 0x80010105".

Worked fine.

Thanks SONY.

This problem with the Sony AVC encoder has NOT been fixed.



Bummer!

Edit: Here's a cut-and-paste from the incident report I submitted on 10-15-2010, "Thank you for contacting Sony Creative Software. I have been informed by the members of our Development team that this functionality has been identified as a bug. They are currently working to provide a resolution to this problem in a future version of the software."

Jerry,
The error I had was quite different as show in my post.

In the project I had mixed DSLR 1920x1080 24p and HDV (1440x1080 60i) footage, project was set to the properties of the DSLR (dominant) clips.

Was rendering to the standard SONY AVC 1920x1080x30p Internet template and about half into the render I got the error message - repeatably.

I then applied the AVC fix as discussed previously (10.0a DLLs) which fixed it for me on 10.0b.

Just now, 10.0c worked fine on the exact same project and render.
Tom

Tom,

I wasn't commenting on your post. My post was intended to point out that all documented problems with the Sony AVC encoder have not been fixed with 10.0c.

When you changed the Template, could you try Saving the Teplate too? At present you don't appear to be saving that changed template. To invoke a new template, you have to save it's changes. I make sure by giving the new template a new name. You appear to h going from changed template straight into render, without saving the new template.

Grazie

"When you changed the Template, could you try Saving the Teplate too?"Okay, just tried saving the changed template, then rendering - same error message. Sigh!

...Jerry

Regardless you should not need to Save the setting.

I suspect your problem is that the codec does not support 30.000fps.
Ideally this should get caught more elegantly than a crash.

Bob.

[I]Regardless you should not need to Save the setting[/I]

Why?

Grazie

I tend to agree with Bob.

I just tried what you did with my project.

Render was using the "Internet 1920x1080 30p" template and when I clicked custom, the frame rate was 29.970. Changing that to 30.000 brought up the same error as yours Jerry.

This may just be semantics, but in my simple brain 29.97 is 30 - or almost. Why not just leave it at 29.970?? I think the template is just using "30p" as a shorthand.

Tom

Supposing I changed the frame rate to say, oooh, 25fps? Would I need to save that? Would I? My point is that without saving I'd get back to the original. Having an "almost" might just be shaking something loose.

It maybe semantics but maybe it is so close that it could be getting an issue.

Grazie

" My point is that without saving I'd get back to the original"

NO, you should NOT get back the original.
When you call up a template the dialog box is filled in with the values from the template. You can then change all of those values in the dialog box. You click OK and start the render. The render reads the values from the dialog box, NOT the template.

Bob.

@farss: "I suspect your problem is that the codec does not support 30.000fps."Two things
1) This problem did not exist in 9.0e
2) Sony has acknowledged it as a bug.

@Tom Pauncz: ''Why not just leave it at 29.970??"Only because my source clip was 30.000 fps (not 29.970). My workaround is to use a script I gleaned from someone on this forum to modify my source clip to 29.97 and then render at 29.97, but, darn it, if 30.000 renders worked fine in 9.0e, it outta work in 10.0c.

...Jerry

Edit: The script I've been using is Fix30pMedia.cs authored by John Rofrano - thanks, John.

[I]The render reads the values from the dialog box, NOT the template.[/I]

I used to get a message saying that the template had been changed and I need to save the changes to have it be re-invoked.

Grazie

btw, doesn't the asterisk after the render template indicate you are rendering using a saved template whose settings have been temporarily changed? e.g. "Internet 16:9 HD 30p (*)"

...Jerry

Yes matey, that is what is broken.

How it should / used to /sometimes even now, works is this.

You open the render diaolg, select template, click Custom. If you change any of the values in the Custom Render settings then the template name in the Render Dialog should change to Custom unless you Save those setting into the template.

Can't download it. Gets (slowly) to about 1MB then tells me it's finished. I've had this trouble with SCS downloads before. I wish they would host big downloads on a decent server.

I don't know where you are but I downloaded both the 32bit and 64bit versions of 10.0c at a rate of almost 2 megabytes per second this afternoon when everyone else was probably downloading at the same time. Sony's servers seem to be pretty decent to me.
