jahshaka

Has anyone had any experience with Jashaka, and is it worth using?

www.jahshaka.org

I have tried it several times out of curiosity but I realy think it´s worth it yet.

makes me think of the days when I wanted to switch from max to blender. Tried it and very soon gave up on that idea. Same story for jahshaka, although I didnt try it that much as blender, but since my NLE at the time wasn’t so expensive and I already bought it before knowing about jashaka, I decided to stick with it which in it’s newest form is called Avid Liquid. I am thinking about (and probably will need to) looking at after effects or combustion to complement Avid Liquid…

If however I didn’t already purchase my NLE, I would be using jashaka today even though the interface seems a bit “funny” to me. (is jahshaka still free?) I’d rather spend the money on an additonal VRay license or the new RT VRay version when that comes out :slight_smile: before buying any other software.

Kind Regards,

I have heard that VirtualDub is better when dealing with large frame counts.

VirtualDub is not a NLA/Compositing tool tho, is it ??

Back on Topic i’d jashaka has miles to go. It was and still is a great effort, but they had more Webpage redesigns then usable releases sadly.

Kind Regards,

Jahshaka is ok.. like said, not too usable. In a similar veign i’ve found djv_view to be pretty useful for viewing larger frames (its a ram player with more options.. pixel aspect, frame rate, timeline to scrub, user adjustable ram cache, proxy half/quarter size loading into memory, etc..) The interface isn’t pretty since it was made as a linux project originally, but it works pretty damn well for free checking of hd stuff.
