movie node in hypershade
 

hello all

when i try to load a 'avi' file in the movie node (in hypershade) i get this message as below

// Error: Image conversion (to IFF) failed

does anyone know what could be the reason for this problem

rgds

mahesh

there is probably some compression on it that maya doesn't like.

hammer horror.

thanks for your help but i get this message with every 'avi' i tried. Are there any settings that i need to check

dont use an avi then :P

...just use and image sequence.
