  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

I have been having a nightmare trying to do any roto work on files that have been converted using RedCine.
I have exported the files from RedCine as DPX and also JPG, but if I load them into Silhouette 2 they will not display (I get an OpnGL Error: GL_INVALID_OPERATION).
I can load the files into Shake, and have tried converting them into TIF, SGI etc, Tried changing bit-depth, colourspace, physical size. Nothing works. If the files have at any stage been near RedCine, they just refuse to load. I can load any other DPX scans into Silhouette, even random JPG files I downloaded off the internet - nothing else seems to cause this error.
A friend loaded them using Silhouette 3, and that seems to be able to open them, but I dont have a licence for that version.

Im banging my head in frustration trying to figure out what may be causing this. It seems that Silhouette 2 is the only image editing software that wont open them, and that its only files that have at one stage been converted using RedCine that Sillhoutte is refusing to display.

Any ideas?
 
ugh - finally figured it out. turns out that Silhouette cant display 2048x1024 images. Guess there must be too many pixels or something.
