Hi, when i use twixtor, ( according to the tutorials in youtube which works) when i lower the speed to /90 the screen goes black but everything is fine at /91.

I've fixed the red screen error now this..Help.

Correct answer Rick Gerard

I do not know what tutorial you are using but the best way to use Twixtor is the apply it to a solid then target your footage. Working directly on the footage layer can be really problematic. You can easily run out of frames. If you are not starting there then you have not spent much time learning about Twixtor from folks that know what they are talking about.

When looking for tutorials make sure you vet your instructors. More than half of the ones that I have seen in the last few years have been by amateurs that don't know what they are talking about, promote inefficient workflows, and lead you down dead-end streets into dark alleys that are hard to escape from.

I'd ask about this on the Re:Vision Effects user forum. They're the guys who make Twixtor.

I'll let them give you the lecture about being very selective in your choice of tutorials.
