Over the last couple of years UV layout in Maya has changed for the better. In this course we're going to be taking a look at some of those changes as we UV map an entire character

Movie software?

Hii.

I'm currently trying to do a small clip, so first i render all the images(TGAs) and then i blend them together in VideoMach into a clip. BUT when i choose the AVI extension the quality isn't good at all the same goes to MPEG. So i wonder if there is another program that converts pictures into clips that produces better quality than VideoMach?

Regards.

If you're at the editing stage of your clip, you should use a video editing application. I use Adobe Premier.

I use Virtual Dub myself (free), but I can't attest as to whether it has better quality than the software you are using.

Hey, I use videoMach. Its great. All you have to do, is when you click to render the clip, make sure you choose AVI, and in the video settings, set the codec to DivX, and in the codec options, choose insane quality. It will take longer to render out, but the quality will be 100x better, and 500x smaller.

Hope this helps mate.

hey, is this videoMach, by any chance free for download? if so, then can you tell me where i can get it? if not, is there any other such software that can render in divx, and is free to download?
also, since we are on a similar subject.... i have a movie clip that has people talking... but, it also has a loud song playing, which drwons out the sound of the dialogue. can it be possible to edit the sound in such way so that i can hear what is being said, more clearly?

I just noticed that i don't have any DivX codec in my VideoMach, however i played around a bit with different codecs and i found Indeo Video works just fine BUT does that codec work with all player or do you need a plug-in? And if i want the DivX codec is there a place were i can download it?

And yes Utpal videomach is free to download at www.download.com you can buy it but you can also evaluate it foreveruser added image
