Hey all -
Performance wise, what does Resolume prefer on something that is larger than 1920x1080 -
- A still PNG Image
- Or, a still image encoded as DXV3 and made into a 5 second length MOV file?
Thanks!
RAM usage does not affect fps performance. Adding a single PNG file with a DJ logo does not affect fps performance. Using single frame DXV files does not affect fps performance.I truly hate rendering png's to dvx3 just to deal with this
All you have to do is create a DXV3 preset (high with alpha), drop all your PNG files in Adobe Encoder and push the button. The default will be a 5 second clip.I truly hate rendering png's to dvx3 just to deal with this btw. No DJ is going to hand you a Dvx video of their logo. And if you got a lota PNG's for your project it's ugggg.
I believe I did just that about a year ago. The e-mail chain was quite long and the suggestion / solution at the end of that chain was convert png's to dvx3. I remember talking to Joris about Ram continuing to rise as I went down the deck and fps got worse and worse back then. The issue might have had to do with how Resolume use to handle still images as Joris mentioned. In the end I had to batch render a ton of png's (I can't remember the number) to dvx3 using AE. ><Joris wrote: If you run into issues where performance drops to 10 fps, it's best to contact us directly with your log file and work with us to solve the issue. Venting your frustration on our forum is perfectly fine, but keep in mind it doesn't help in getting your problems solved.
It was dozens per artist in the case that melted the computer. To be clear it was a mix of png's and dvx clips set up in large decks. By the 3rd 150 column deck I was noticing major performance loss. Again this was a while back so maybe the way Resolume now handles still images by not keeping them in memory has helped sort of but not really. Even then how the pixels were stored in memory it was crushing the moment it was triggered.dinga wrote: I have yet to see ANY performance drop due to the image files (typically 6-10 per artist).
