Dear all,

I am trying to create a very simple movie, but my movies turn out blank. I am using the Spin Movie example script on http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/tutorials/movies08/moviemaking.html

My movie seems to render, and the movie file is created, but when I open the file and play it, it’s just a blank (all black) video. When I examined the captured frames, they’re also all blank black frames. If I choose “Save image”, it saves it just fine, so I guess the image capturing algorithm for movies is different the one for saving the images.

This is on Windows 7 64-bit, Chimera 1.5.2, Intel Mobile 965 express Chipset GPU (it’s a TabletPC, hence the GPU).

Any suggestions to fix this would be appreciated.

Thank you.
