Distorted images in Slideshow

I have a website that I'm working on, and I put some images in a thumbnail slideshow. All of the colors are messed up? Any help?
Thanks, Andrew

Distorted Images in Slideshow when using Philips Screen on Mac Mini

Photos are distorted (horizontally stretched) when a slideshow is run independent from the preferences (tried them all). However, the full screen edit mode displays the images correctly. The problem did not occur with the previous analog screen.
I'm using the following Mac Mini (PowerMac10,2, PowerPC G4 (1.2), 1.33 GHz)
with the latest iPhoto version 6.0.6 under 10.4.9 and with a Philips 200WS 20" screen (DVI port) running the the native resolution of 1680x1080.
Mac Mini G4 1.33 GHz, 1GB Mac OS X (10.4.9) Philips 200WS screen
MacBook 1.83 GHz, 2GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I actually just encountered the same exact problem today. I've had a Mac Mini connected to a 42" TV for the past 6 months, and I always used ARD to view the screen (rarely via the TV).
Today, I moved the machine to a new location, one which leaves it headless, and now ARD displays a black screen. I don't know if it has to do with the Mini not knowing what resolution to present, since it doesn't have a display connected to it, but it's definitely causing a problem- I no longer have the 42" TV, or any display, for that matter, to use!

FCE/DVD Slideshows - Distorted Images

Despite reading the many posts regarding pixel aspect ratios and distorted images, I remain very confused about how to solve my problem.
I use FCE to create slideshows on DVD from still photos, but try as I might, I cannot figure out how to avoid the distorted (squashed) images in the finished DVD.
I use Lightroom and/or Photoshop to edit the images, then simply import them to FCE. I export the slideshow using Quicktime Conversion, H.264 Compression, Dimensions of 1442x1080. I use iDVD to convert the QT movie to DVD, for viewing on a widescreen TV.
I've tried the different options in QT Conversion to preserve the aspect ratio, to no avail. Most recently, I used Photoshop to change the pixel aspect ratio to 0.9 in the jpeg files, but that seemed to make no difference in the distortion.
I would very much appreciate any help you could offer.
Thanks,
DBennett

I export the slideshow using Quicktime Conversion, H.264 Compression, Dimensions of 1442x1080. I use iDVD to convert the QT movie to DVD, for viewing on a widescreen TV.
This is a significant part of the problem. If you intend to make DVDs then you must export from FCE to QuickTime Movie. DO NOT export to QuickTIme Conversion. While useful for many things, QT Conversion is not useful for transferring your video to iDVD or other DVD authoring tool.
And as has been mentioned above, if you want your photos to fill a widescreen TV (ie, 16x9) then you need to start by creating a sequence using one of the highdef Easy Setups in FCE. I'd recommend either one of the 720p30 or 1920x1080i60 Easy Setups. (1440x1080 is an anamorphic Easy Setup and is probably also a source of your distortion.) Of course, your images must also be 16:9 aspect ratio if they are to fill the screen. Don't scale up the images once they are in FCE. As for image size, 1x to 2x the video frame size (in pixels) seems to be the sweet spot unless you are using a Ken Burns type of effect and need to pan across a very large surface area.

Photoshop CC distorted image when zoomed out. Text, edges and Straight lines.

I get this distorted image when working on a file. When I zoom in its fine. But as soon as I zoom out all the lines, text , and edges start to become distorted. I've checked that all my drivers are up to date. I've re installed photoshop and still the same thing. Any Suggestions. ( files look fine when saved or exported, this just happens while Im working )

That looks like a Moiré pattern. Did you scan the image?
If not, can you tell us what operating system?
And is your video card driver fully up to date from the maker's website?

My i phone 4 screen suddenly starts showing funny and distorted images then goes blank. how do i get the screen back to normal.?

my i phone screen starts blinking and showing funny and distorted images before going blank. now it's blank,how do i get it back to normal.?

Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data, but a reset can cure some glitches.
If this does not work, try to set it up as new device, explained in this article:
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Don't use the backup afterwards, to rule out a software problem. If the camera is working again, restore from the backup.

Change position images in slideshow

Hello,
I am trying to change the position of the images in my slideshow, but I don't know how I can do this.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance!

You can resize and reposition both the Hero Image container and the Image inside that (by double-clicking the Hero Image).
Although your Hero Image size/position is fixed for all the images in slideshow, you can definitely move/resize the actual images inside individually. See if that helps you get it to work for you in the Slideshow itself.
Else you can always for go the Composition Widget which allows you to place individual target slides in different positions and have different sizes.
Cheers,
Vikas

How do I import images in slideshow with the caption?

I imported images in slideshow. but I have to write down in each field the caption of the image. is it possible to import the caption as well?
thanks for response

Hi
I am afraid, its not possible to import "Captions" within Adobe Muse. You need to manually type in caption for each individual image.

How to replace images in slideshow?

I would like to replace images in slideshow, but I can see only ADD option.

Thanks Parikshit.
Looks the trick would be to turn on Thumbnails, delete the image and turn it off.

Soft images in Slideshow

When I go to view my images in View>Slideshow they are very soft almost blurred. The thumbnails are fine as are the preview images in Bridge.
If I left click on the image in slideshow and zoom on the image it becomes sharp, when I right click to zoom back to full image it becomes blurred again.
This is very annoying as I have used the manual slideshow in CS3 to quickly assess and rate my images with no problems.
What am I doing wrong? Please help

Most of the problems in slide show are realated to the video card or driver. Make sure you have the latest driver installed.
If this does not work in advanced preferences click "use software rendering" and see it that solves problem.

Blank images in slideshow

I have just downloaded iphoto 11. I am able to see thumbnail pictures, but am unable to see images in slideshow. I only see blanks. Anyway round the problem?
Imatong

Are you able to see the full sized images of those photos in the Event or Photos mode? If not what do you see?
If you see just a blank window or this image in the window:
Then try the following:
If you have the space available on your hard drive and don't aready have a backup copy of the library make a temporary, backup copy (select the library and type Command+D) and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Poor quality images on Slideshow

Hello all,
I recently downloaded Aperture from the Mac App store - seemed to good a bargain not to and I was already considering upgrading from iPhoto 08.
I imported all my pictures (along with the captions) into Aperture and created a slideshow from an album. I was quite disappointed to see that the image quality was really poor and very grainy. The photos themselves were fine in the album - but not so in the slideshow.
I thought this may have been down to importing from iPhoto, so I experimented by adding other images directly into Aperture. The same slideshow quality issue arose. I also possess a MacBook Pro and decided to re-perform the steps described above. The images and slideshow are absolutely fine on my MacBook pro.
I wish to maintain my photo library on my main iMac and will be very downhearted if Aperture cannot give me the same picture quality on slideshows that I achieved in iPhoto. Can anyone help me figure out why I'm suffering from poor quality images in slideshows on my iMac?
Thanks in advance,
Simon.

Hi Simon,
Aperture uses the image Preview in Slideshows:
_About Displaying Sharp Images in Slideshows_
To display slideshows at the best quality, you should set Aperture to create high-resolution previews. In addition to setting previews to their highest resolution, you should also use full-size previews to prevent upscaling with large displays. If previews are not available, images in the slideshow may not be as sharp as they would be otherwise. For more information about creating high-resolution previews, see Working with Preview Images.
From the [User Manual|http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=21%26se ction=2]
What size Previews do you have?

MSN is probably using something proprietary. Below you'll find some free slideshow and image gallery solutions that might work for you.

Distorted images???

I've just restarted aperture today and on the timeline all the thumbnail images that are portrait/upright in shape have distorted. If I click on them they gradually become normal but does anyone know why aperture is doing this and what I can do to get them all back to normal??

I am experiencing distorted images too, but my problem seems to be restricted to just some of the images from one download - all in the same project. I am keen to attempt the suggested solution above (ie generate thumbnails), but since I have just over 210,000 images in this library wonder will this solution work if I just select the photos in the affected project.
Any advice??

Right click on anything opens a distorted image of the website and options are not visible.

Please help! Every time I right click options are not shown and instead I'm greeted with a distorted image of the current website. This happens when I want to open a link on another tab and when I go onto the firefox settings in the top left corner. When I go in the options in the top left corner, instead of an image of the website, a magnified image of what I clicked appears. This doesn't allow me to see the options and if I'm lucky and move around the mouse they appear for a second and the image reappears. Please help! I've erased Firefox and reinstalled it and nothing, the problem still persists. Thanks for helping! :)

Image only slideshow in premiere pro cs5.5

Hi all,
Newbe question. I want to create an image only slideshow but not sure how to go about setting this up. All the sequences are set up for use with video (as i would expect).
I guess what I'm asking is what default sequence settings should I use and what size should I crop my images to before importing them into premeire pro. If it's make any difference i will just be creating video's to go on youtube.
Thanks in advance
James
