โ€ŒSeparate Alpha Numbering for Movies

For movie files, SynthEyes requires the first frame to correspond to the first

frame of the untrimmed movie, ie ignoring any start/stop trimming you have done in SynthEyes. That first frame number should always be zero or one, to tell SynthEyes how you have your numbering set up.


If you have trimmed the shot down in SynthEyes, and are only supplying alpha images for the portion you are using, you must supply a "dummy" alpha file corresponding to the first frame of the actual movie. It can be either frame zero or one, as long as the numbering of the rest of your images matches that.
