Vision Video Screens

[nakedeye]

Hi, I'm struggling getting video clips to play on my screens in vision. I can see some flicking but thats all. do I need to have a console patched for this or can it be done beforehand?

Video screens shouldn't be affected by your patch at all. The flickering is a bit strange though, had you performed a step incorrectly, the screen would do nothing. The flickering tells me it's getting a video - it's just not displaying it correctly. Double check the scaling on the screen, when you go into select video source, it should have had an option to adjust the scale.

 

If that's not the issue, feel free to send your file over to tech@vectorworks.net and I'd be happy to take a look.

Thanks Edward, I've had a look and can't see any scaling option on clip selection or after.

If you select a Video Screen object, there will be a button to set screen image, when you click into that, the scaling options are there. You scale the screen image, then turn it into a vision video source (selecting the video file or capture device).
