We've been working with a matte effect (holdout to show video underneath), and making the holdout grow, but it seems to be wreaking havoc - DS freezes and both the project & media indexer numbers plummet. We've tried different pieces of media (thinking perhaps the media was corrupt), but seem to have isolated the problem to the effect (we've put the effect on both a video clip and clip of generated black). We then close out of DS and re-index (1st dumping the server.ummds file). Has anyone else experienced this? It seems like we've done this effect before without any problem, so are trying to figure what may be the cause ... everything else seems to be working OK (as far as we can tell).
Thanks for any and all help!
