Viz Engine and Media Sequencer Logs
In addition to Viz Trio’s log files created on the client side, it's recommended to read and, if required, send log files to Vizrt support that were created on Media Sequencer and Viz Engine.
Viz Engine Logs
Viz Engine log files are located in the program folder: C:\ProgramData\Vizrt\viz4.
Example: VizRender_1159345015.log
Media Sequencer Config Files
The default.xml files are stored in Win Vista and 7/8: C:\ProgramData\Vizrt\Media Sequencer Engine.
Media Sequencer Logs
The log level for Intelligent Interface specific messages on the Media Sequencer can be set using Intelligent Interface (IIF).
All logging of output can be assigned a log level. Messages are only written to the log if the current log level is greater than the log level of the message. Log levels are defined as integers in the range 0-100. At a given log level, all the information specified for lower log levels is also logged.
The log level can be changed while the Media Sequencer is running, and the logging output will immediately reflect the new log level.
Info: For more information on how to set log levels for the Media Sequencer, see the Media Sequencer documentation.
Caution: Remember to set a low log level, preferably to zero, since a high level of logging might affect performance when running in a production environment.
