Hello. I don know why when working in PAL and exporting to wmv if i touch any settings i cannot use 25 fps.

I mean, if i take for exaple the 256 and render the project it looks ok. But if i do minar changes as changing audio mode to mono for exaple, and i come back to the frame rate setting it moves automatically to 30 fps. Writing 25 would not fix the problem because as you move bacj 30 fps are again selected.
Anyone has notice this? how can i fix this problem?

thanks!

>> The 5.0d update added the PAL framerate to the WMV dropdown list so 25.0 should always work.

I wasn't aware of that one. But - hey - 25 fps was what I was looking for so this is great anyway. :-)

>> But if you type in some other frame rate that isn't already in the list you may run into problems as noted above.

Good point. Only other framerate which is interesting to me when using WMV is 12 fps or even better 12.5 fps.
So I played the game once again. Typed in 12.5 fps and changed ANY of the encoding parameters except the WMV codec version:

- Switched the tabs: Everythings fine - still 12.5 fps
- Saved a preset and recalled the preset: Fine - still 12.5 fps
- Encoded with 12.5 fps: Fine - result has 12.5 fps

Perfect! :-)

OK, sorry, just download the 5.0d upgrade and it works!
My lesson is, try before you type!

Thank you.
