Rendering Interlaced Targa Sequence - Frames Missing

Rendering Interlaced Targa Sequence - Frames Missing
Wed, 7 May 2008 10:32:10 -0700
I have an AE CS3 project.

I'm using a transition in my project - Dissolve - ripple.

I've previewed my comp and everything looks just how I want it.

I setup the render queue to export my comp as a Targa Sequence (24-Bit)
Interlaced. The render runs fine. However when I previewed my targa sequence in
both bridge and in Premiere Pro CS3 - the frames containing the Dissolve -
ripple are totally black. All I see is the text layer that was above the layers
that had the Dissolve - ripple transition.

As a test, I exported to a DV-AVI Interlaced - previewed it in PPro CS3 and I'm
having the same problem with the AVI file.

Does anyone know why that won't render to a Targa Sequence or AVI (for
Interlaced Vide)?

Thanks

Also FYI:

If I turn off Interlace when I export my comp, the transition effect works in
either TGA Sequence or DV AVI...

I can repro this. The source footage has to be interlaced and you have to render
to interlaced. I played around a little- it doesn't occur if you reorder the
effects. It seems to have something to do with the animated Opacity control on
the Solid Composite effect in the preset. I can also make it happen with
completely different effects (Bulge and Fractal Noise), as long as the second
effect has an Opacity control that is animated.
