mcjSlideshowVideoMaker - Present Your Renders as Videos Fast! (Update ‎Feb 07)

mCasual

HISTORY

February 7th 2023 - This is an exact copy of the Jan 4th version, but the sort order of the images in the images list is now alphabetical instead of by creation time,

so it will work fine for numbered image filenames ( as long as they are zero-padded like what Daz Studio makes )

Jan 4 2023 UPDATE

mcjSlideShowVideoMaker_January_‎4_‎2023

That's the version i've been using and improving in recent weeks

example: 

 

- November 9, 2022 01:58 AM fixed the path to the makeStSlideshowVideo

which was getting stuck to the location of the first makeSlideshowVideo.bat

path and filename that you created. Though doing a factory reset was a workaround

 

- ‎November ‎7, ‎2022, ‏‎6:07:28 PM Fixed the [Run MakeVideo.bat] button

 

- ‎November ‎5, ‎2022, ‏‎7:18:59 PM Released

A while ago i published mcjFrameMaker which lets you create decorated frames with a title at the top and signatures/credits at the bottom

https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/599946/mcjframemaker-is-online-frame-your-renders-as-stills-later-as-slideshows

https://sites.google.com/site/mcasualsdazscripts10/mcjframemaker

mcjSlideshowVideoMaker can use these frames to create slideshows or stills or standard videos from collections of images

in the video you can see I presented 240 images as 30 slides, each slide is shown 6 seconds and there's a cross-fading effect between each slide

By standard videos I mean, say you rendered a 1800 frames animation as image series, then you set mcjSlideshowVideoMaker's

frame rate to 30fps and you got your 60 seconds video plus an audio track (mp3) of your choice.

The [Run MakeVideo.bat] button didn't work

( because I prefer to run the makeSlideshowVideo "manually" so I didn't test it in a long time )

so it's now fixed just download and unzip the new zip package in your content folder

read the [ HISTORY ] section to see the date and time of the update

i fixed an issue with the path to makeSlideshowVideo.bat

it was getting stuck to the location of the first makeSlideshowVideo.bat path and filename that you created.

Though doing a factory reset was a workaround. ( if you used this trick, you get 10 points )

Nov 22, 2022 Fixed the creation of the batch file for Standard Videos, sorry i waited 3 days to give you this version!

In the near future mcjVidYoMaker will do what mcjSlideshowVideoMaker and mcjFrameMaker can do and more, like the layout with various cell sizes as shown in this video

mcjFrameMaker and mcjSlideShowVideoMaker News

this here shows that i found a way to present users of the next version of those scripts (they may be merged into mcjVideoMaker)

... with the complete set of possible and sane layouts for a given grid

in this case a 3x2 grid

there were 128 combinations of the 7 walls, and only those made sense

and here's a recent video made with mcjFrameMaker and mcjSlideShowVideoMaker

and this one which is less scary (for people scared of ghost pics )
