With Cineform hdv-avi on the timeline and cookie cutter on a still image copied from the timeline on the track above Sony Screenblast Media avi, and the cookie cutter set to side oval with everything set to 16 x 9 the final render does not copy the oval and instead changes it more into a circle but not quite.
Another problem is using a circle and keyframing from small to large circle (2 keyframes) there is a small hesitation playing back from small to large no matter what the keyframes are set to (smooth, linear) or the toolbar smooth set to "0". This is evident before render or after render. So what it amounts to is I cannot get a smooth linear opening of the circle no matter what I tweak. All the track stuff is set to "0".
