Whenever i watch a tutorial, after they hit camera solve it makes more than one camera solve while everyone else only has 1, HELP?

[Jamescoaster23]

@SuspiciousSpykey Are you talking about in the top left corner of where the video is, there is a drop down box, and it says "Camera Solve 1", do you mean there is a Camera Solve 1 and 2?

The tracking went all smooth but when i do add camera smoothness and the radial. My dots disapear for some reason..

@Jamescoaster23

I'm kind of confused here, why is z axis from left to right when i go to 3d it looks like its going from top to bottom? Sorry if this is a real noob question but this is like my first time working with this software..

@Jamescoaster23

I have a question. How do i motion track stuff that is in the air? How can i get depth into the object i want to animate in the air? I'm kind of new in this so i don't really understand.

[MrJunkJonathan]

Correction for "Scene Geometry": Z = depth. Y = height. X = side to side. That will correct any problem you have with your test object not aligning right.

"its ah like hard to explain" stop trying to explain it when you have no idea dude. just sayin. not a hater, just trying to help you out.

[2LearnGolf]

I think its funny when people try to explain something they really know nothing about, should just stick to the basics of what you know.
