Banding in viewport...

I'm running CS6 on win 7 x64. Quadro 6000 with latest Performance drivers. Eizo ColorEdge display.
I have a 32bpc linear comp and if i create some gradients I get very bad banding in the viewport. With Full resolution, adaptive resolution off(final quality). This is only a display issue in the viewport, because if I perform a "Save frame as..." after it renders, the viewport will refresh with the newly rendered image, and it looks fine, no banding at all. As soon as I switch from the Rende Queue tab, back into the comp to continue working, it pops back to the degraded preview.
These are .exr files I'm saving in linear color space. If I open up the file in Nuke, it looks perfect no banding at all. In Photoshop CS6, the banding is still there. So I think it's some issue with the way CS6 products are displaying these images. 

It is common to see banding on screen if you have a gradient or big blur, even if your project is set to 16- or 32-bit mode. With some examination (try using Levels to really boost the contrast), you'll find that the banding is just in the 8-bit screen display, not in the actual pixels and not in the resulting EXR file.
I think the Nuke viewport uses dithering in its viewer, which kills the banding. After Effects uses dithering when saving out to a lower bit depth file, but not in the viewer. You can add a slight Noise adjustment layer on top (make it a guide layer) if you want to simulate the dithering and get rid of the banding on screen.

  • Time Capsule disk access SLOW!   2TB - Dual band

    I have a Time Capsule (2TB, Dual Band, Firmare at 7.4.2)
    Its been working like a dream, backing up 3 Macs for the last 8 months.
    I also use it for connecting two or three other disks via USB and then making those accessible over the LAN, and there is also about 100GB of data on the Time capsule disk itself that i use as a dump for files so i can get to them from anywhere on my LAN.
    Lately I started to notice EXTREMELY slow disk access, even when i am connected via ethernet (1000 base) - and equally when I am connected via wifi (n)
    for example, copying over a 2Mb photo can take minutes when it should take seconds.
    i've been trying to figure out whats going on here for a while and so i checked out the sizes of the backup files.. the sparseimages that time machine creates.
    one of them was nearly 1TB, while another was around 500GB and the other was around 120GB
    that plus my data meant there was only about 300GB free on the 2TB disk.
    I have a feeling the slowness could be down to extreme fragmentation of the drive... ??
    so i decided to dump the backup files and copy off my other data and do a erase of the disk and start again.. but get this.. i can't even delete the 1TB file ! I have been trying for about 3 days now and it just will not delete.. i get the Deleting msg box and it just sits there, literally ALL night...
    i know it isn't just hanging on the Mac (10.6.4) because deleting the other two images also took a long time (but not this long!)
    i can't just wipe the disk now because i can't get my other data off either.. I have tried copying it over the network and onto a USB disk connected directly to the Time Capsule, but 3 days later and i'm still copying files..
    to put some context into this, I copied over 1.8Gb today and it took about 4 hours...
    has anyone had this problem before?? what on earth is going on?? is it down to fragmentation, or something else?? the TC has been working fine up until a few weeks ago when i started to notice slow speed.
    any ideas ?
    thanks
    Adam

    if anyone ever has this issue ....
    it must have been EXTREME fragmentation. I bought another 2TB external disk, connected it to the TC, did a complete archive, which took around 24 hours... then i wiped the TC and put stuff back... it now works fine again...

  • Rückspeichern auf DV Band mit JVC DVX 707 EG

    Hallo,
    ich arbeite mit Adobe Premiere Elements 10, Asus Computer mit Windows 7 und einem Camcorder JVC DVX 707 EG, der Mini-DV Bänder benutzt. Ich überspiele die Filme auf den Computer, bearbeite sie und spiele sie dann wieder zurück auf DV-Band. Leider funktioniert das Zurückspielen nicht mehr. Premiere erkennt zwar den Camcorder und meldet ihn auch als "bereit", der Camcorder ist auf "DV in" gestellt, aber nimmt letztendlich nichts auf. Ich bin der Meinung, dass es in dieser Konstellation schon einmal funktioniert hat, bin mir aber nicht sicher, ob ich nicht inzwischen von XP auf 7 gewechselt habe. Einen neuen Treiber für 7 habe ich installiert, funktioniert aber auch nicht. Aufnehmen von Camcorder auf Computer ist kein Problem...
    Wer kann mir helfen?
    Was mir noch aufgefallen ist: FRüher konnte man den Aufnahmeknopf zweimal drücken für manuellen Start, dann wechselt das "DV" Zeichen im Monitor von gelb auf rot. Das geht nicht mehr. Also Kamera kaputt? Oder hat jemand noch eine Idee? Danke!

  • DAX Dynamic Banding | Calculated Member based on Calculated Field

    Good morning,
    I've created a Power Pivot model that measures the blood glucose levels of clinical patients at specific times of the day. The requirement is that this metric, let's call it GlucoseLevel, is always averaged as it wouldn't make sense to sum up the values.
    To meet this first requirement, I set the "Summarize By" property of the GlucoseLevel column to "Average".
    The second requirement is to band the GlucoseLevel values so that groups of people can be measured by this band rather than by the individual measure values. I created a banding table in Excel and then imported it into the Power Pivot model. The banding table
    has three columns (BandName, MinValue and MaxValue) and has the following values:
    VERYLOW: Min Value = 0; Max Value = 3.99
    OK: Min Value = 4; Max Value = 6.99
    WARNING: Min Value = 7; Max Value = 10.99CRITICAL: Min Value = 11; Max Value = 30.00
    It is at this point where I face my challenge. I have a GlucoseLevel measure and I have a banding table. Great. The challenge is: How do I create a calculated, dynamic
    member that will look at my GlucoseLevel measure (at whatever level), do a lookup to my banding table, and then return the "BandName" column from the Banding table at that specific level? So to clarify what I mean by level: I want to be able
    to view the bandings at Year level, or a Month level, or even at a week level. Then depending on what level I am at, my measure should have a Band associated to it.
    I've tried to solve this issue in a couple of ways:
    Attempt 1
    Create a calculated column in my fact table that contains a nested IF statement to manually band my GlucoseLevel values. This works fine if I view my data at the lowest level of granularity, however
    it does not work if I start looking at my data at the day, week, month etc. levels
    Attempt 2
    1.) Create a calculated field (not a calculated column) that averages my GlucoseLevel measure. This is cool because it will average my measure at whatever level I am viewing it at. Let's call
    this field Bob...
    2.) Band my measure Bob by creating another calculated field (called PatientBand). This field uses my banding table (described earlier) in conjunction with my calculated field Bob. This works perfectly, except for one big flaw: Excel sees this banding field
    as a measure, and not as something that I can use as a column / row...
    So my question is: Can I trick Excel into viewing my PatientBand calculated field as an attribute, and not as a measure? And if not, how do I get around this challenge? Here is the DAX formula that I used to create my second calculated field "PatientBand":
    PatientBand:=CALCULATE(
        VALUES (Bandings[BandName]);
        FILTER (
            Bandings; 
            Test[Bob] >= Bandings[MinValue]
         && Test[Bob] <= Bandings[MaxValue]
    Thanks!

    So there are 2 ways that I can think of for doing that.
    1) if you are only using MDX clients like Excel or Reporting services you can create a text based measure that returns the banding name. (Note that this sort of approach does not work at the moment with PowerView as it only displays numeric measures). This
    would effectively let you show a label next to a reading as opposed to moving the reading under a given banding column.
    Banding Name :=
    CALCULATE (
        VALUES ( Bands[BandName] ),
        FILTER (
            Bands,
            [Average of GlucoseReading] >= Bands[BandMin]
                && [Average of GlucoseReading] <= Bands[BandMax]
                && NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Average of GlucoseReading] ) )
    2) This next approach will show the results exactly as you had them in your sample screenshots. It just takes a slight bending of the DAX. I'm using a SUMX here, not because I want to sum anything, but because the "X" version of SUMX basically loops over
    every row in the specified table and sums the expression in the second parameter. I have setup the second parameter so that it only returns a single value for the average if it is in the appropriate banding. 
    Banded Average:=IF (
        HASONEVALUE ( Bands[BandName] ),
        SUMX(
            'Bands',
            IF (
                NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Average of GlucoseReading] ) )
                    && [Average of GlucoseReading] >= MIN ( Bands[BandMin] )
                    && [Average of GlucoseReading] <= MIN ( Bands[BandMax] ),
                AVERAGE(Readings[GlucoseReading]),
                BLANK()
    ,AVERAGE(Readings[GlucoseReading])

  • How Can I choose Iphone 5s models that work with LTE in Brazil. The Iphone needs to Support Band 7. If I buy the wrong model can apple change it ?

    I am planning to buy an Iphone 5s in October, but I have to make sure that the model will work with the LTE services we have in Brazil. I know that Apple made 2 Models that support Band 7. See Below.
    Model A1457*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20)
    Model A1530*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); FDD-LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8, 20); TD-LTE (Bands 38, 39, 40)
    How can I make sure I will buy the correct model through the internet ? Can Apple change the Iphone In case they send the model that does not support LTE services in Brazil ?
    Thanks,

    Have you personally tried those models with Brazilian LTE networks? Do they work? If so, fine.  If not, then besides that, there is the problem of the warranty which is not international. The user will have to return the phone back to the country of purchase for both warranty and out of warranty service. So what might seem cheaper at first glance might not be in the end.
    Anyways, it your money and the OP's should he want to go ahead with your recommendation.

  • How do I use the remote app on a dual band network?

    There are 2 routers in my home. One is dual band (SSID: NETGEAR49-5G). This one is being used as a 5GHz access point while the other (SSID: NETGEAR49) is being used as a 2.4GHz extender. However I can't use the Remote app to control my iTunes library, regardless of which router I connect to. I can't even use a passcode to add my library because I just keep getting an error saying I entered the wrong code. Strangely everything's fine if I turn off the 2.4GHz router, but I don't want to have to keep doing that. Is there any way I can configure the two routers so I can use the Remote app and other network-based services??

    Are you using the Sky Go app to try and watch it ? If so are you logged in with your Sky account ?
    If you are using the app then you could try closing the app completely and see if it works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Sky Go 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Sky Go app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    In GarageBand 10.0.2 you can no longer add all kinds of effects freely; this GarageBand '11 feature has been discontinued. Pick one of the predefined patches that already has the effects you want.
    However, you can add effects from the predefined audio units.
    You'll see the predefined effects on the track, when you open the Smart Controls. To add audio units, click the button and enlarge the the smart controls pane by dragging the dividing line to the Track Area upwards.

  • No "Band" tab on Treo Pro settings

    Hi,
    I just received an unlocked Treo Pro, bought in the USA, two days ago. Since then Ive been trying all the settings and just making sure everything works as it should, and everything does except for the fact that I can't manually turn off 3G as there is no "band" tab on the phone settings. Instead of the band tab I have a PIN tab. So my phone settings look like this: Services - Network -PIN/PIN2 (where the band tab should be) - ALS - Beacon - More. I've looked for a band tab pretty much everywhere on this phone but there isn't one.
    So, yesterday I used the chat support and your representative told me to return the phone and get another one. Being that I'm not in the USA this is something I would do only if all else fails. However I was doing some research in other online forums and found out I'm not the only one with this problem and everyone else with this issue has an unlocked Treo Pro with software T850UNA -1.02-NAE and firmware 1.65.29.45. So, now I'm afraid to return the phone and then get a new one with the same firmware and same issue. I need to make a decision ASAP and really need to know if an older version of firmware can be installed or if something can be done to solve this problem, as being able to manually turn 3G on and off is a MUST for me and everyone I know can do so easily on their devices. I really don't want to have to return the phone, which for me means mailing it to another country, and everything else works perfect but I need to have a band tab! Please help me!

    I recently bought an unlocked Treo Pro but I don't have a SIM card in it so this just speculation until someone tests it.
    In my Registry, there is the following setting:
    \HKLM\Software\OEM\PhoneSetting\ShowUMTSBandPage
    It currently is set to 0, which usually means "false". If this were set to 1, which usually means "true", that might fix the problem.
    For comparison, ShowALSPage=1, ShowBEACONPage=1, and ShowPINPage=1, while ShowPIN2Page=0 and ShowNITZPage=0.

  • White pixel band on my 15" screen

    Hello guys!
    I hope you can help me because I do not know where to turn now. Let me explain my problem.
    I purchased in the month of November 2010 my 15 "MacBook Pro (mid 2010, 2.4 GHz, 4GB of RAM). During the first year of use no problem, the mac worked great and I used it immediately as your primary computer ( traveling and living away from home was an obvious choice.) If at the beginning of the second year were presented serious problems, namely: continuous computer crash, that I initially tried to solve disassembling and exchanging of cards instead of the Ram ), irreversible damage to hard disk drives (internal and external) resulting in loss of critical data, partly recovered by programs such as Drive Genius. And a band of white pixels appeared on the screen (approximately 6.5 cm from the left side of the screen wide and about 4 cm), which is attenuated slightly shake up the screen. All these problems (in time of exams and work) have led me first to ask for help Aesse computer, Apple Premium Reseller of Catania, with whom we have tested the Mac for more than a month, and it was found necessary to replace the Main Board. same fate at the Apple Store in Catania.
    After litigation related to Apple's warranty (the problem occurred in the second year and was linked to a lack of conformity), the Mac has been sent by the retailer Euronics (chain reseller Italian electronics) where I bought it, to its headquarters in Turin , where it replaced the Main Board. It's all right for a year.
    To be noted that in terms of performance, the Mac is back to the first, but about two weeks the band reappeared pixels, giving me a few problems in the visualization and realization of the work (I'm a graphic designer). The Hardware Test does not detect any problems and the band alternates between moments of everlasting presence in moments of terrifying absence (for example, two days ago I had to present to a client a job with the **** white band, the first five minutes when he was absent ).
    I did research on research on the internet but it seems this problem is far from common (the only loser I am, of course). I assume by contradiction that it is a burnt connector on the screen, because when the screen is slightly bent at the sides of the band fades or disappears (sometimes to reappear, sometimes to disappear), but would not explain why after repair (not touching the screen, but only the Main Board), the problem was not resubmitted immediately, but only after a year ... So, not being an expert, I ask you if you can understand what the problem is, because I have run out of options.
