Re: Photo-video rendering plug-in
Geovani141, this error might happen when the program doesn't have enough RAM to work. Read the FAQ to increase the maximum RAM that Sweet Home 3D can use.

Re: Photo-video rendering plug-in
Some details about the video rendering.
- curved line for camera path The curved line path is created automatically when there is a difference in orientation between 2 recorded positions.
- variable speed according to distance The greater the distance between 2 recorded positions, the faster the movement speed. Conversely, the shorter the distance, the slower the speed.
Practical tip to see the difference between a straight line path and a curved line path. You can save your path in the standard video panel and then open the video plugin. Since the positions recorded are the same, some parts of the path may be curved and the speed different depending on the distance.
At the next version!

To add additional options, I decreased the size of the image preview and since version 1.4 the size of the panel changes depending on the look and feel chosen.
But to answer your question, yes it is possible to increase the size of the image preview.

Even better: create the possibility to specify the size of the image preview in Preferences... :-)
I will study the feasibility of the thing so as not to complicate the photo panel too much. Besides, I hesitated to put the option of the choice of look and feel in the preferences if it was possible.

Re: Photo-video rendering plug-in
Heheheh I think it would be though... Java and Swing (programming language and UI components used here) are not the best to support responsive layouts...
I hope it is possible, but I have a few ideas/options for the developer: - What about changing the Quality bar? we have only 4 options and it is huge, fast and best are taking a lot of space in addition to 1-2-3-4.... Maybe replace 1 and 4 with fast and best and keep 2 and 3 instead of replacing the whole component?
The lookAndFeel (that I did not understand why having that option, but maybe I missed some thread) should be a non frequent option to change (it is less important than picture size or quality, so it could stay in a "secondary" frame like advanced options, why not? So we could have a new frame with: Look and feel - Preview Picture Size - Any other option
And, this is completely IMHO, I would put the elapsed time bar under the "Advanced settings / Enhance Brightness" line, just to separate what will change the resulting image and require a stop-create (over that line) and what is modifying in live the UI and the components shown (below the progress bar), like lookandfeel.
Take this as some ideas from a developer that uses SH3D sometimes, and used a lot when planning a new home, so if you think is a stupid idea, feel free to tell it!

The goal of the plug-in is to stay visually close to the standard photo panel while providing new options. Personally, I occasionally use quality level 1 (3D view without shadow) and one of the higher quality levels (3 or 4) with the setting of SunFlow rendering engine.

This option is not related to the rendering but I have integrated it in the photo panel in order to modify the appearance of the interface. The other solution is to use a script for the installer version as shown here with "-Dswing.defaultlaf=". Available Look and Feels:

This may be possible (see previous central image).
