Movie Maker bug?

I've saved TGA files from a sketch and stitched them together using the movie maker tool in Processing. It works. Except for the image being upside down!?

    forget the question, I'll just use this library to export movies: http://funprogramming.org/VideoExport-for-Processing/

  • Glad you found a solution!

    Separately: If you think this is a bug worth investigating / reporting, consider sharing a simple sketch that demonstrates the problem....

  • Jeremy: I simply used saveFrame("image-###.tga") to save the frames and then told the Movie Maker tool to create a movie out of it. The result was a movie. But it was upside down.

  • Got it.

    1. What Processing version / OS?
    2. Did the exported frames already appear upside down before going into MovieMaker?
    1. latest Processing 3 version, Windows 10 64bit
    2. they look correct when I open them in Photoshop, so it seems that Movie Maker is turning them upside down for some reason?
  • did you try it with other formats like png and jpg?

    (both are, i think, slower to export than tga, which might cause other issues, but it would be good to know if this was only a tga problem)

  • Works fine if it's PNGs
