Hi, i have the next problem. I have a scene which has a "JPEG Folder" block, but not all the pictures are played, when a picture cant be played magic does a "blackout" however if i play one of those pics from an "Image" block it can be played.

Thanks for the help!!!

The JpegFolder module requires a certain type of image format in order to be hardware accelerated.

If you can upload/attach an image that doesn’t work, I can test it for you.

Yes, as I thought, that image has 4:1:1 chrominance subsampling, which means it is not fully hardware accelerated.

But, you can easily use Photoshop or a similar program to save it into 4:4:4, 4:2:2, or 4:2:0.

4:2:0 is the most common format for Jpegs and it's what most programs use.
