Does anyone know of any good tutorials on how to use and incorporate Cg infinity and Video Paint in a media studio project??
Thanks, Joe TG

On this site, there is at least one that uses Video Paint. (it's a lightsaber effect)

I think they guy that wrote those comes buy these forums every once in a while... so...

Nick-

I successfully created a light saber effect when I first got MSP, but now every time I try to do one I get weird error messages when I'm "tricking" MSP in the file naming/saving process! Do you know if this is possibly some "bug" that was 'fixed' in one of the update packs, and therefore preventing that file-naming trick from happening? I imagine it's more than likely just me messing up, but I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

The trick still works as recent as SP3 as far as I know.
What is the exact error you are getting?

BTW: The "Highlight Marker" and "CSI Lens Plates" tutorials both use CGInifnity.

Hmm, well I went back to try and do it today with just an image file (so I didn't have to paint over multiple frames) and it seemed to work! I must've just been making a stupid mistake. Thanks!
