I have been asked to edit a few videos for a group which is outside of my developer skill set. I have settled upon Blender version 2.79 and have managed to make all of the changes and have the finished item that I am happy with.
I put the settings in according to the Excellent Mikeycal Meyers YouTube tutorials but the output, rendered from HD quality, was horrendously pixelated. I updated the settings according to the last 2,79 update video

But now I do not seem to get an output file at all, any thoughts please?

I need some help with some Ai thingy. Recently I try converted Ai file into png and it works fine but later I found out that some of the fonts have changed and so the proportions become off. I tried to review back to my Ai design and everything was fine there, proportioned wise etc. I tried using other converter and none of it works. if it works, the same problem occurs. I need to know if anyone can help me with it.
In Illustrator, use "Export..." from File menu and select PNG as the file type. In the export settings, choose the highest DPI setting and consider the other options in that dialog if you are not happy with the result.
This will render out a PNG with the same fonts and should look like what the file looks like on your computer.
we created a simple animation in Maya using keyed blend shapes. Exported it as a .dae.
I've been trying and researching everywhere and it seems like SceneKit will not play this type of animation.
I can see my Morphers in Xcode as well as the animation key, but nothing ever happens when playing this animation.
I've seen a couple threads about that on Autodesk and here, and it looks like no one have solved this issue. So my question is the following: is there anyone out there that was able to play an animation from a .dae file using blend shapes?
Thank you
No, I don't believe this is possible. I went down this same path about a year ago. In the end I used one of my developer code-level tech support tickets AND filed a bug report. I got action on both fronts. Apple said that it SHOULD work. However, it successfully played any kind of transform animations (position, scale, rotation), but wouldn't play any keyed blend shape ones.
Then I had them look at my DAE file from Maya. They said that the exported file was not a valid Collada. They pointed me specifically to what was wrong with the way Maya exported it, and even told me what would need to be changed in order to make it work.
I went to the Collada DAE file format spec and confirmed the Apple engineer was correct about what was wrong with the exported file. I opened a case with AutoDesk. After a few initial questions, I never heard back.
Upon making the change Apple mentioned, it still wouldn't work. But get this -- after making their changes, the Preview app on the Mac would play the animation correctly! But never in Xcode.

I'd like to create a test application for my Unreal Engine based game to create screenshots. I'd like to place many (possibly thousands) of cameras throughout the maps and then have my test application enumerate them all and take a screen capture at each camera location.
I came across Taking Screenshots, but wanted to first check to see if this isn't already built into UE4 in the editor, or some tool. I'm also aware of the Screenshot Comparison Tool, but that doesn't seem to be what I need because I don't really want to use UE4 to do the image matching, but instead just want a directory full of images that I can do with what I want.
Any suggestions?
This is not directly what you want to do but I found this article very interesting: https://www.unrealengine.com/en-US/blog/capturing-stereoscopic-360-screenshots-videos-movies-unreal-engine-4?sessionInvalidated=true
It explains how people at Ninja Theory Ltd proceeded to produce their 360 video trailer which is, in the end, producing two 360 screenshots per frame.
So what they did was having everything exported in a folder (as a sequence of images) and then did what they wanted with it. (In this case put them all together with ffmpeg to make a video)
They used a plugin, I do not know if it can be tweaked not to make 360 captures but the built-in "take screenshot" from UE4 could work for you.
More specifically to what you need, you could probably store all positions/transform in an array, loop over it when you want to make the screenshot. Each step, you place your Camera at the specific position, make sure it is the current active camera to change the "view" and take a screenshot.
Taking screenshots and setting parameters such as export folder, resolution etc. ... can be called via console commands and console commands can be executed from code or blueprint using the "execute console command" node (there is an example in the article).
I hope it helps.
I think the best bet you have is rendering camera to a texture.
this way you can have multiple inactive camera then iterate through them, activate them, capture their screen view and going to the next one.
for basic tutorial have a look at

First of all I'm noon at Vuforia and Unity. I want to make memorybook to my girlfriend. We have photograph album and I want to use them as target images and want to show videos in program. I have downloaded core package, and tried imagetarget works like charm. But when I change target image to my database pictures it cannot recognize. Also Vuforia give 5 stars to my images. I don't know what am I missing? Can you help me?
You need to change the AR Camera's settings. One of them deals with what databases the camera has loaded.
I believe it's called "Active databases" or "Loaded databases," its been a while since I've messed around with Vuforia, so I can't remember the exact name.
You need to make sure to include your database in the list of active/loaded ones.
How to do screen record in unity?
I want to record my screen(gameplay) during my running game.
That should be play/stop , replay , save that recording on locally from device, open/load from my device (which is already we recorded).
In my game one camera which can capture native camera, and one 3d model.
I wish to record that both and use my functionality whenever i want.
Thank you in advance.
This is hard to implement, but not impossible. Because every frame or interval you need to capture screen shot of your camera view and store it in the list. You need good, (Smaller interval but not much. Because when it becomes smaller, needs more memory) interval value. If your interval is big raplay can be seen laggy.
While you play game your ram becomes full and os will terminate the app. So you need to fully cover memory optimization. Another solution is assets in Unity Asset store.
EZ Replay Manager can be used. (Keep in mind: I haven't tried it yet.)

Check out this open-source project: https://github.com/getsocial-im/getsocial-capture.
By default our project records Main Camera's rendered content. C# examples are in the repo.
You can record in 2 modes:
Continuous mode - capture last X frames.
Manual mode - capture frames on your own when needed. For example, record a timelapse of the level.
Once the recording is done, you can generate GIF, get raw bytes and do whatever you want. E.g. let your users share that GIF with friends.
Here's the recording of a game session from the test app. The recorded GIF shows up in the end:
Disclaimer: I worked at GetSocial at the time of writing.
well i know a guy who post a similar project on github. link :- https://github.com/thanh-nguyen-kim/Unity_Android_Screen_Recorder
but there is a limitation and that is this code is only works on android devices(android means only android not even on ios).
but this is very powerful recorder and it is capture whatever appear on screen(so basically it is a screen recorder made with unity) and also it will capture your microphone output.give it a try.
and if you find any other solution then please also tell me. because it will very helpful for me.because i want to record video with in-game audio and also save it into gallery
Unity now has a screen recording tool builtin. It's called Recorder and doesn't require any coding.
In Unity, go to the Window menu, then click on Package Manager
By default, Packages might be set to "In Project". Select "Unity
Registry" instead
Type "Recorder" in the search box
Select the Recorder and click Install in the lower right corner of the window
That's about all you need to get everything set up and hopefully the
options make sense. The main thing to be aware of that setting
"Recording Mode" to "Single" will take a single screenshot (with
F10)
