No matter what I do I create my OTL and I get the error ……

“ Not enought sources specified ” I have 1 input and one output. I cannot even find the error in the help.

On a side note it might be a good idea if Sesi produced some good video tuts on this subject ! As the current help is somewhat lacking. I dont how others may feel but I am just thrashing around trying to get things to work with a few pages of help and going round and round in circles ………. which gets very fustrating

There's some good video's by Jeff over on his Old School Blog on the topic.

If this doesn't help address your problem, perhaps you could post your otl?


cheers,

if you have the HDA set to requite a minimum of 1 input then the HDA will error out unless there is an input connected…

Thanks arctor , talk about getting confused at least that cleared up one area !!
On a side note you can right click on a pop network at the SOP level and save out the geometry for your preroll , handy tip there from craigs book. I want to include this system into my otl for the preroll , can it be done using a geometry ROP and then have it read back in via a file SOP ?

yep
just promote the file's parameter
create a button that executes the ROP….and an int for the amount of preroll
