[Midipopo]

How do I get my blender vids to play in media player etc, cause I can't work it out. Please help =)

this sequence editor sucks

you have to use editing software

or else you will be done rendering 6 months after you are done with it

can somebody help me? I did all of this correctly, but when i play my animation, there's no sound at all. It's on AVI Codec and blender 2.58. In the preview, the sound is there, but after i tell it to animate the entire strip, there's no audio playing on the video

[OpticalVampire]

@MrDrPlatapus Did you choose an audio codec? For some reason, blender defaults to no audio. I usually go with mp3.

Thanks for the great video, learned a lot in a very short period of time.

[lighthouseprj]

Thanks. This makes it possible to do video editing better than I did last time a few years ago with a lot of difficulties. At this moment Windows is for me not an option anymore, so I have to choose for an open source editor. Blender is good,and some good video's about using it, is really useful.

I know it is possible to make good title screens with Blender. :-)

thanks man. ive been a long time user of blender but always relied on crappy or too complicated video editers. this is all i need!

[mathghamain]

thanks that was very helpful.

[commodore256]

My problem is I can't get sound to work with the editor. (I did exactly what you said)

What good is a video editor if you can't hear anything? I've tried this in Windows and linux and neither work!

[MrDrPlatapus]

@commodore256 SAME HERE!



[persiana451]

Thank you for this video. Unfortunately I don't see anything in my preview window. Does anyone know, why that is?

[Markus2976]

NIce thx

[Kratos87Fan19]

is there any way to make a 3D animation with a video in the background instead of the grey or blue background??

[chocolatemlkman]

if anyones new to linux and wants this just open terminal and type, sudo apt-get install blender  then update.

[Stumblefuck]

Nice, man. I'm loving 2.5! I'm surprised just how cool Blender's built-in NLE is.

2.5 interface sucks -.-

space robbing glossy shiny buttons and everything is big as hell.

in 2.49 i never needed to scroll, alot of functions are missing, shortkeys are bugged or missing, argh 2.49 is so much better,i dont want this cheap interface -.-

[xomagick]

@JimmyonGER

Remember that this is alpha. It is not beta, RC or final in any way. I have seen large debates on the dev list about how to improve the UI. It is a work in progress. The keys can all be remapped in 2.5. I also think (?) that they want to make the whole program skin-able.

[3ssay]

Thanks man!

[leandropolus]

Hi! Great video! Short but straight to the point. Hey, It looks like you work on a Mac, am I right? Because I'm very interested in the "little thing" that displays the keys you are pressing! Is that only for Mac?

Thanks for any answer! Cheers!!!

[xomagick]

@leandropolus

The little thingy is called Key-mon. My system is Kubuntu 10.04 but a bit custom.

Take a look at this.
