The Mistika VR Cheatsheet (page 117 in the manual) is an image that is black with white text. Great for viewing on a monitor but when you print it out it's only able to be viewed with a microscope. Can you help out the 40+ crowd and create a version that can be read when printed out?

I have some test footage shot on the YI 360 that is 2880 × 5760. I am unable to find a tuturial how to separate the two fisheye images. Is it even possible to stitch this footage in Mistika? I realize the camera is outdated.

Can't figure out how to properly align the distant horizon. I can move into place horizontally holding using the shift key... but my vertical alignment is a little off. The vertical alignment tool works okay... but with the 6 lenses on the Insta360 Pro2, it is complicated as an adjustment on one lens will effect the vertical alignment on the other lens... and so the adjusting can go on forever. What am I doing wrong? I have seen and/or read every post I can find... including all tutorials from SGO and from Hugh. Any suggestions? I'm really close at this point...it's almost there. Normally, I would let adobe premiere and the Insta360 Pro stitcher plugin handle it... but …

Is there a config file where we can pre set the entries we consistently use in the Options Panel? Stitch Feathering, Gamma CUrve and Input Levels primarily. Same question for Render Output Options, would like to set the defaults to be Image Sequence, EXR Zip Half.

Hi everybody, I've tried to see if my problem is already in other post, but I didn't found anything... I have to stitch materials from Insta360Pro2, I can handle the video part importing the six cameras (from the 6 microSD) but audio is missing: is recorded on SDcard, but I don't know how to add it to my video? Where I' m wrong? thanks for helping :) Stefano

Hi there, my 360° camera (Detu Max) is automatically dividing longer footange (above 8Gb of data) in separate sequences. Now, how to match the settings at the end of one stitched, leveled and stabilised clip with the start of another one so that i can edit them next in Davinci Resolve?

I have a stitch with keyframes set up and I want to replace the footage (I did some pre-color correction). How can I just re-link the cameras to the new footage, and key all the stitch settings and keyframes? thanks, Dale

Hi Guys, I've got some Stereo 3D Drone Footage. The Camera was hanging upside down underneath the drone. The Picture in Mistika is Upside Down now as well. Can i rotate it for better previewing? And also, if i rotate it later in Premiere, will the Top/Bottom be messed up? For exampel, will Bottom become Top and therefore each eye getting the wrong image? thanks for your help!

¿En qué carpeta de MIstika se pone los documento de word .docx para que el TITLE de Mistika reconozca los textos y no haya que teclearlos otra vez?

I have just installed the trail version and activated with email and activation code. I am getting this error message when I try start a new project. I want to set to 4k, 120 frames (as I have some test footage shot on an insta 360 pro v2) I would lie to stitch. "New Project Error Project manager creating project test The prject "%2" cannot be created" Can anyone direct me how to start this project.

When I apply a FX to a clip (in this case a import VR) I can not get in to the Visual Editor by double clicking. Is there a key or workaround for this?

Hello, I am working on stitching nature footage shot on Kandao Obsidian. I want to fine tune the stereoscopic alignment, but need some tutorials video or reading material on the topic. Any suggestions?

Do I need to subscribe to the Professional version of Mistika VR if I want to stitch/render 3D 360?

i have a problem to stich videos from the Vuze 360° camera. Mistika always render a video without the horizontal separation from the 2 videos for the 2 eyes. I can chose "Top and Bottom" and on the screen the video apparent korrekt, but if I render the video, I got a video with the two streams mixt on the screen. It is not separate "Top and Bottom" , it is mixed in one picture. What am I doing wrong.

Hi Mistika Users,The Insta Pro 2 now saves the audio in origin_6_lrv.mp4 file directly. If you need to export with the high-resolution files the audio track please, follow the next workaround:1. Import the high-resolution files2. Do the stitching jobs. 3. Once you have your stitching ready, import the origin_6_lrv.mp4 file as camera number 7. 4. Select in the clip stack the origin_6_lrv.mp4 file.5. Go to 'Input camera' control tab and do click on 'enable' to turn off the camera. As you can see the audio speaker can be selected in the clip stack so now you are ready to export your sequence with audio. Ensure the speaker in the clip stack is ON in the origin_6_lrv.mp4 file.…

I have imported 8 clips of about 3000 frames each from a custom rig, created template with PTGui and stitch looks great but when I scrub the timeline there is only motion in the preview window for the first 45 frames which is about when the audio sync marker plays. After that in both the preview and any export renderings, every frame is the same in most of the camera. Only camera 1 shows any motion.

I'm working on a VR project with 4 different scenes. Inside theese scenes the camera is in a fixed position all the way through, but there are cut's in the footage and the cuts are supposed to be hidden, when the actors walk behind a wall or out of the room etc. Now my problem is each stitch is a bit different which creates a distracting jumpcut. Is there someway to copy the exact same stitch on all the files? I can make it work somehow with crossfades but ideally the ecaxt same stitch would be great to achieve. Is there a way to do this?

I want to know if there is any way of outputting audio from Mistika. Anything I export comes out without audio. My source footage has audio data, but there is no documentation that I know of that shows how to tweak and output audio. The support portal says "- Check that you have enabled enough channels in Mistika->Audio->Setup." Where are these menus found?? Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I'm new to Mistika, and still learning, but I run into a problem that I can not find in the tutorials or the quick guide, so I hope someone can help me. I have an indoor scene with a lot of close objects for which the automatic stitching does not work well enough so I want to use PTGUI to do manual stitching. When I click Stitch-->External Stitch PTGUI starts, but I get the error message that says 'File not found C:\Program Files\SGO Apps\Mistika VR\bin\D:/<<My project folder>>/EXPORT/Image0000.jpg' In the tutorials PTGUI opens correctly and in the Quick Guide I see one line saying I need to make an export of the image set. But it does no…

Hi all,We want to share a trick for stabilization S3D Top/Bottom footage. 1. Import your clip TWICE: drag it to the timeline, and then, drag it to the left panel with the cameras list again, so it shows two clips as if they were two lenses. 2. Select the top clip, and in the Input Camera tab, change the "Stereo Eye" to Left, "Split" to Top Half, and Mapping to Latlong. 3. Select the bottom clip, and in the Input Camera tab, change the "Stereo Eye" to Right, "Split" to Bottom Half, and Mapping to Latlong. 4. Use the stabilize tool as usual5. Render your results as a Stereo - top-bottom. I hope it helps,.ro

I'm trialing out Mistika VR for the first time using the 30day free trial as I have a GOPro Fusion and GoPro just dont have a working software for stitching. So far I'm extremely impressed with the quality of the stitching of Mistika. My question is when I go to export there isnt any option to do so, is this because I'm using the free trial version? Thanks

Hi I need some help wit this: I want to import already stitched equirectangular footage (only one camera/frame) to do the stabilisation. But the problem is, that Mistika VR is squeezing the footage together after importing and creating black areas on both sides. I assume this is meant to be the overlapping area for stitching, but as my footage is already stitched I only need stabilisation. The import resolution is correct. Can someone please help me with this? Thanks!

Can anyone recommend a laptop that will run Mistika really well? I need a machine that ideally has an Nvidia 1080Ti and an AMD Ryzen Threadripper, or something very close to that, for processing in the field.

? about audio rendering in 8.8.6. I just stitched a bunch of scenes (stereo top/bottom, 6k) but had forgotten to turn on audio rendering. Whoops. Was getting 2.7fps without audio. But when I turned on audio rendering, speed dropped down to 0.12fps. I must be doing something wrong because audio can't be reducing speed by 2 orders of magnitude. Instead of rendering the audio (option #1 in the render dialog) should I be using "audio from file" for this? I've got 20 sequences queued up, and if I use "audio from file" will it find the audio that's in the first camera's movie file in each sequence? Confused, thanks for the help... (weird).

Hi all, I am currently working on an underwater footage of the Kolor Abyss rig. Using the inbuilt preset, the result is shown in the picture below. I am wondering if there's any way to manually stitch the footage, any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
