Solidworks Smoothness Problem in Animations

Hello

I work with SolidWorks 2014

I create animations for my design office but here it is not fluid there are slight flickers during the camera movements

I tried to change the number of frames/second (20 to 100) but nothing helps.

if someone could advise me for the settings

thank you in advance

probably a problem with ram and graphics card

what is your type of PC?

Proc

RAM

video card

and + you will put a second frame + you will ask for ram

and virtual memories...................; -)

I don't think it comes from my PC

I work with an HP Z640 workstation

2 Intel Xeon i5 v3 2.4GH processor

2 quadro k4000 graphics card

64g RAM

so you see I have resources

Hello

Are the graphics card drivers up to date?

See here:

http://www.solidworks.fr/sw/support/videocardtesting.html

If not, it may be a codec problem, see here:

Hello

yes everything has been updated driver + codecs

I use MEPG 4

Thank you for your answer but I have no problem creating an animation or a rendering in Photoview

I just have a problem of fluidity when recording the animation

Have you tried to change the codec?

For my part, I do my video renderings at night.
I noticed that using the PC during the animation calculation was not a good idea (stuttering, freezing, camera jumps on the final video...) despite a QuadCore processor & multithreading.

Then, I render without compression (uncompressed frames),
Then I re-encode the video on a video editing software. 
(Solidworks offers a limited number of codecs, although others are installed.)
I use the H.264 (MEPG4 / .mp4) codec, which is at a very good weight/quality ratio, which is the format of many cameras, and which is accepted by Youtube.

Have you tried to play the video with several players and several stations?

With VLC it jerks too?

Otherwise, as I said above, I think it's a codec problem, maybe you need to try another one.

yes its jerky with all the readers

with which software did you get the h264 mpeg 4 codec because me with xvid i only have h263 mpeg4 please

For the h264 maybe here:

see here for the H 264 codec normally ;-)

Is it comical.................. after reflection............................  you're going to try another codec

if you had read the links I posted to you

you will have gained a little time

@+;-)

Hello Cédric,

Put yourself on an uncompressed codec
And when you record your video. (save path) you put photoview as the type of input.
There will be no flickering and you will have CGI from your photoview.
Good luck.

 

Kind regards

well the installation of the codec has not changed the problem

Hello Rvillar

If I make an animation in photoview I have hours to record it

on the other hand I also have an anti-aliasing problem despite my graphics card configure to avoid its

 

Have you read all the links I posted to you

The answer is there I don't see why it won't work with you

Do you have a maximum of repetition in your assembly parts

Clean up your files minimizes the time it takes to rebuild each part via the block bar

Made via Evaluate a Statistic tab to see where the bottom hurts

Kick out the useless stuff (the inscriptions if there are any.)

Do you have any toolbox parts?

etc...

Show your part or assembly 

what the size of your files
