Updated NEOHD to 5.0.5.264 now First Light Won't Read Cineform .avi's
...maddening. Says can't read file, both exisiting Cineform .avi's as well as ones I just converted with HDLink.
I get the message below. So I also tried CFRepair...couldn't get anything but a message saying I needed an .avi output file... Worked fine until I did the update...any ideas? |

I get the exact same error message here, rolling back to v.5.0.4.261 fixed it.

Dear David, I got the same message as Ken on older files, went back to v.5.0.4.261 like Galen suggested and First Light recognized them all again. It must be a problem with First Light 5.0.5.264.

I had the same problem with the last official release. I had started a trouble ticket, and eventually I was advised of the beta release now up. I was concerned that it was my Magic Lanter captured files that was creating an issue.
On the trouble ticket, I received notice last week that the new beta should resolve the issue. I finally tried it last night. While I am not getting the message reported by the OP, I did try to take a large file I had rendered in Vegas using the Cineform codec back into First Light, and while it would show on the viewer, any changes I tried to make to the file would not show on the viewer. When I would try to add anything, the highlighed area on the file list highlighting the file I was trying to modify would turn from blue to white. Am I mistaken that I should be able to take a file rendered in Vegas using the codec, back into First Light to add cc ?

I just rendered a 1m30s sequence from Vegas and it works in FirstLight 5.0.5 fine. Not seeing any issues here. We need the clips that fail sent to support.

I'm uploading a 10 second sample now to the support ticket I opened yesterday...says it has about 20 minutes left. I just shot it and converted it with Cineform, I still get the same error message trying to open it in First Light.
Well...tried to...after 20 minutes it said the file was too large...how do I send it to you guys at Cineform...? |

Send me the direct link as support in LA today, so I might not see that file into tomorrow.

As well as support. I just happen to be working on FirstLight today, so if I have the link I will test it right now.

I don't know how to send it to you...
I tried via support and it said the file is too big. Is there an email address I should send it to via YouSendIt? |

Patch for FirstLight 5.0.5
Here is it: http://cineform.com/downloads/FirstLightv505patch.zip
Unzip and replace FirstLigh.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\CineForm\Tools (Remove the " (x86)" for the 32-bit systems.) The failure was an overly strict check the CineForm sample header (required to fix a 5.0.4 bug,) plus a typo resulting in no support for I-P encoded files. We've pretty much switched to I-frame only (required for 3D) so we missed this in our testing. All works now, and this will be in the next official build

Thanks, that seems to have done the trick! Seems to work OK now.
