Resolume Forum

Should my composition resolution match my projector's native resolution of 1024x768? Not sure what my composition size should be for maximum graphic quality... mind you most of images are NOT photographs. Designs are only simple graphics, textures, and shifting color gradations that I'm creating in After Effects. Any advice?

For fine line art, and most graphic source material, I find having both the source image, the comp settings and the projector at the same resolution works best.

Thank you so much! I was just worried that if I'm building all my content at 1024x768, playback might get a little slow. I'm using MACPro, 2.5 GHz Intel Core Duo, 4GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, GeForce 8600M GT VRAM (Total): 512 MB. Do you have any other advice to keep things running smoothly? I have been rendering using the DXV codec.

The best advice I can give is to get an SSD, or at least an external high bandwidth hard drive. I always was a bit skeptical myself, but after seeing 6 layers of 1080p playing back from an SSD at 60fps, I was converted

Fantastic THANKS!

Alright. Just spent the big bucks on the Intel X25m 160gb. What's the best way to set this sucker up with my Macbook Pro? Doing this for the very first time Yippeeee!
