I've got an anim that is designed to play back at 15fps.
I sent it to the PAR and when I play it back at 15fps I got glitches
throughout the playback. I checked the manual and indeed it mentions
that there could be problems with anims playing back at less than 30fps.
It recommends compiling them at a lower q-factor setting to fix it.
Fine. I bumped the q-factor down to 18 and sent the frames to the PAR
once again. However, I noticed that as it recompiled the frames, it
automatically bumped the q-factor back up again to 21-22 as the software
tried to give me the best quality.
Can I force the PAR into using a lower quality setting when compiling
an animation?
The only other solution is to send double the number of frames and play
it back at 30fps, but that takes a lot longer to compile and also doubles
the size of the anim... I don't have the room to do that.
Please offer any suggestions ASAP... I've got to get this animation out!
(I'm running PAR v2.30 software for what it's worth.)
