Comment 17 for bug 882790

After beating my head over this all day I found a solution for my particular project. I had two video tracks, one shot from a tripod, and the other from a handheld camera hovering. I had the tripod track on the timeline above and the hovering track below. I'd split the tripod track at several points and used the option for dragging the red bar on every other resulting segment down to zero so it would not show, thus revealing the hovering track below during those intervals. The preview played fine, but rendering had the problem mentioned in this bug. What I did was instead of dragging the red bar down to zero, I simply deleted the tripod segments that I wanted hidden, and voila, it rendered out fine. I also decided to try not deleting the segments, but setting the opacity to just above zero, and that works also. So apparently it has something to do with multiple video tracks overlapping, or with one being set to 0% opacity? Maybe a division by zero error somewhere? I'm running PiTiVi v0.13.5 on Linux Mint 11, 64 bit.
