PROBLEM
Hi, I made a “template file” to save time from having to import common files for each project. The media pool has music, sound effects, images, etc. in it. This “template file” also has 10 or so video and audio tracks on the Timeline with certain effects added to them.
I also made a bunch of my own Fusion titles, and a few of these titles use pngs I animated. Everything in this original “template file” works fine.
But as soon as I save this file as something like “my_next_project”, and I try to add one of the fusion titles with images in them, I get a “Media Offline” in the viewport. Any other title works fine, but the only ones not working are the ones with pngs, and the names / locations of these pngs has not changed.
So I go into fusion, the nodes with images are red, and the console says:
my_image cannot get frame for time 22
my_image cannot get frame for time 22
my_image cannot get frame for time 22
my_image cannot get frame for time 22
MediaOut1 cannot get Parameter for Source at time 22
MediaOut1 failed at time 22
WHAT I TRIED
I’ll then try to change the source folder of the png in the media pool to the same one it was in, and that won’t make it recognize it either.
So I’ll make a copy of my_image in the same folder as the original, add it to the project in the same bin, and replace the node with the copy, then it suddenly shows in the viewport.
Any ideas what’s wrong? I have like 50 animated images to deal with, and having to redo all that for each project is not worth it.
If any of this is confusing, this is essentially what I was hoping to achieve:
