I've been testing OBS for a podcast I do. I wanted to start using animated lower thirds and have run into some issues. I create the animations in After Effects and they look good, however one of the ways I can render the files is a QuickTime .mov with an alpha channel. This method looks good, but the file size is huge. For a 10 sec animation, the file size is close to 2gb. I understand that this is a lossless format and that's why it's so big, but I really needs to keep the size pretty low because I need to be able transfer to other computers.
The I got the idea to render the After Effects file as a .png sequence and compile then with a third party animated png creater but none of them worked the way I wanted it to. The animations seemed a little slower than what it should be and just a little flat and choppy.
Finally I got the idea to do a slideshow with all of the .png's in OBS and that would work perfect if there were just a couple more options available for a slideshow. First, if we could fine tune the milliseconds of the slide length. Instead of 50ms intervals. For a 30 fps animation, we would need the slide intervals to be 33ms. Right now the lowest interval is 50ms. The diffence is very small, but it would probably make the animation look a little smoother if it could be set to 33. Also, if there was an option to not have the slideshow automatically loop at the end.
If these options are already there, then can some please point me in the right direction?
Thanks!!!!
