Change Photo Duration

Post by netsonicyxf »

I export 3941 pictures from 3ds max animation. The duration of the animation is 2 min and 11 sec. The setting in 3ds max is 30 frames per second, each picture exported represents one frame.

I import these pictures into VideoStudio, and project setting changes to 30 frames per second, the default Photo Duration is 3 sec, which is shown as 0:0:3:0 in H:M:S:F format.

I changed the duration to 0:0:0:1 since each picture represents one frame.

The problem is in the preview window the total length is 1 min and 18 sec, not the original 2 min and 11 sec.

It would appear that when sharing, the frame rate is 60 fps. A screen capture of your settings on the Share tab when rendering would be useful.

Hi

When adding images to the timeline the Project Properties frame rate will affect the duration of the project.
Set to 30fps and add 3941 images with each image having a duration of 1 frame, the total duration will be 00:02:11:010
I ran a few tests trying to replicate your times, the durations showed as ok at 00:02:11:010

What type of images are you using, Jpeg ect.?

Can you change the way you import the images
First set your Project Properties, you need to make sure the frame rate is correct.
Right Click the timeline for Insert photos for Timelapse / Strobe
From the panel, keep 1, Drop 0, Frame Duration 00:00:00:1

When you Share use "Same as project settings" to retain the same original frame rate.
