Weird Behavior Using Quicktime Uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2

[mloomis]

This one really has me stumped!

I'm trying to output an animation as Quicktime using the Apple FCP Uncompressed 8-bit 4:2:2 codec. Everything looks fine in the Shake GUI (including the small render window that appears during output) but when I playback the completed animation, the image looks like random color pixelated noise. The image is barely recognizable, but the color is just very whacked. I can render to other codecs just fine, but of course the people I hand this off to need that particular codec.

Anyone have any experience with this?

do you have Shake 4.1.1 installed? The updated fixed many of the quicktime output issues with Shake.

either that or just render to an image sequence and compile a mov file with qtpro.

Thanks! 4.1.1 update seemed to fix my issue. The quick reply was very much appreciated.
