Flicker removal for slideshows

I'm using Premiere Elements 7. I discovered after burning my slideshow that the photos flicker on the TV screen, which looks horrible.
The FAQ says you can try and reduce this using flicker removal, but when I right-click on the pictures, "Field Options" is grayed out. Does anyone know why this is, and/or how to make it a selectable option? And do I really have to do this with every individual photograph?
Also, the menu flickers as well (it's a still photo)... is there any way to address that?
If it matters, the TV being used is standard def.
I'm shocked that this is even an issue... I just assumed that any half-decent slideshow software should be able to correct this sort of problem automatically.

You can only select one photo at a time. If you have more than photo selected, then the flicker removal option will be greyed out.
Here are some excerpts from some of my posts long gone about flicker removal:
I don't know if you remember, but in version 1.0 flicker removal was on by default, but Adobe removed it because everyone complained that their still images weren't as crisp as other video editing applications.
This worked for me. Add the Fast Blur effect and set the direction to Vertical. In PrEl 4.0 try a value of 1.0 or 1.2. I tried values from 0.4 to 1.2 and tested the samples on my TV and found that 1.0 or 1.2 got rid of terrible flickering. You could do something similar using the Gaussian Blur effect, but with different values.
After applying the Fast Blur effect to one Photo, you can easily copy that particular effect in the properties panel for one photo and then Edit > Paste to the others Photos -- unlike the "flicker removal" option that you can only set on photos one at a time. You could try the anti-flicker option in the Motion effect, except that all your panning would have to be the same for each photo if you wanted to copy that effect to the other photos.

  • Flicker Removal in Premiere Elements 12

    The  option for Flicker Removal only allows you to add Flicker Removal to one clip at a time.  This is very time consuming if you have many clips.  Is there anyway to highlight all of the clips at the same time? 

    Michael Stehly
    Thanks for asking for additional information on the suggested feature.
    There are several scenarios for selecting more than one clip at a time. See which one works best for you.
    Starting immediately after you have applied Anti-Flicker to the first clip and have done the copy in the initial step.
    1. If you clips are not necessary side by side right next to each other, you might want to hold down the Shift key as you click on the ones that you want to be selected all at one time. Then the Paste Effects and Adjustments part.
    2. If the clips are side by side right next to each other, you could use the mouse cursor to left click and drag a rectangle out around the clips to be selected in order to select them. Then the Paste Effects and Adjustments part.
    3. If you want all the clips on the Timeline, then Edit Menu/Select All and then  the Paste Effects and Adjustments part.
    Any further questions or if you need clarification on any thing written, please do not hesitate to ask.
    Thank you.
    Looking forward to your results.

  • Flicker removal - Shortcut key or script

    Hello! - Is there anyway to make a 'flicker removal' shortcut key?  I am not opposed to editing the *.kys file if need be.  I would really like a script to do this but from what I see it is not possible at the moment but I am hoping I am wrong.  Any help is appreciated.

    Just a thought....
    First of all, I want to say that my camera seems to hold the exposure in manual mode pretty well. Perhaps if you held your mirror up out of the way? (I use a mirrorless.)
    I don't know why the exposure setting would change.
    However, you could try picking a spot on one image in Photoshop and get the exact RGB setting for that spot. Then in Camera RAW you should be able to adjust the exposure to get the same exact RGB setting for that exact spot in each image. A little time consuming perhaps, but I would think that most of the images would already be the same. Or, if not, they might be off the same amount for quite a few frames in a row? If that was the case, you could sync a lot of them together so that what you did to one applied to them all.
    Of course that falls apart as the sun changes position across the sky. Or if a cloud goes by.
    Think of it like rotoscoping. A necessary evil?

  • My kids, ages 9 and 10 just received the ipod touch 4 gen for Christmas. Can anyone recommend a good protective case (against drops, they are kids) that is easy to remove for charging?

    I have heard the otterbox defender case is great, but many have told me that it is hard to remove for charging.  Any suggestions?

    The Griffin Survivor is a military-grade case that I use. It's $40 and I purchased it at Best Buy. It has a rubber piece that covers the charging port, but can be easily removed for charging while still in the case. The only downside of the case is because of the added girth, it makes the iPod unusable with iHomes or other docks unless you take it out of the case.

  • Amount of pictures allowed for slideshows?

    Hello everyone. I was wondering if someone might be able to help me with my question. I'm thinking about buying photoshop elements 8. One of the main reasons is for slide show making. Does anyone know how many pictures can be downloaded per slideshow? Also, how many songs can be downloaded per slideshow. I've been using Photostory, and they only allow 300 pics max. I was just wondering if photoshop elements 8 allowed more?
    Also, while I have you here, is this program good for slideshows, or would you reccomend a different program?
    Thanks so much in advance for all of your help!

    I have used Photoshop Elements to make slideshows - but I would not say that it is good for making slide shows and I would not recommend purchasing it specifically for making slide shows. 
    -- I don't think there is a specific limit on the photos in a PSE slide show : however, many people do encounter effective limits based on the hardware and software configuration of their PC/laptop. There have many posts on these forums where people failed at 200 - 300 photos.
    -- You did not say how you will use this slide show. You should be aware that if you wish to create a TV playable video DVD (MPEG2) you most probably will need to also purchase Adobe Premiere Elements.
    I suggest that you also post your question on another forum like elementsvillage.com which has photo and slideshow discussions about software other than the Adobe products.  ProShow Gold is a product I have seen recommended and hopefully someone at elementsvillage forums can give you guidance . I suggest that you post in their General Elements Discussion subforum.

  • Using the Composite/Component AV cable for slideshows

    iPad 32G WiFi
    Hi,
    I plan to use the Composite or Component AV cable for slideshows in the Photo app. There is a setting (TV Out) for Videos in Settings, I will set it to PAL when I run the slideshows in Asia later this week.
    Question: Once set, will this setting under Videos apply to the Photo app for slideshows as well, or this setting is only good for videos?
    Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated! /Kenny

    No problem

  • Image Quality for Slideshows

    Hello Everyone. I just purchased Photoshop Elements 9 and I have just joined the Adobe Forum. I am an amateur photographer with a challenge. I am creating slideshows for family, and before I go any further, I need to get some questions answered about quality. I have scanned old photos to my computer. I have scanned old negatives to my computer. I have digital pictures on the computer with varying ranges of size and quality. When these are imported into a slideshow program to be put on DVD, what kind of sizing and pixels per inch do I need to use so that when the DVD is played on a TV, (for instance, my brother has a HDTV that is 46"), the quality of the photos remain good for that size of a screen?  Another example would be a slideshow of my trip to the desert where I shot a couple hundred photos, and when I made the DVD, some of the images appeared pixelated, and/or noisy. The pictures were shot with a Nikon D50 3008x2000 pixels, 300dpi 24 bit depth jpegsRGB. The size of the original file is 2.78MB. I would appreciate any input on this. Thanks so much. Arthur

    Is the image quality improved for slideshows using the new Pro Encoding option in iDVD08? For me, the quality was unacceptable in previous versions
    iDVD '08s Pro Encoding mode won't improve things if your total DVD size is under 60 minutes (for a single layer disc) and can use Best Performance mode encoding.
    Best Performance uses a encoding bit-rate about as high as a DVD player can handle on playback. The Pro mode advantage will 'kick in' when you have content over 60 minutes. Best Quality simply picks a fixed encoding rate necessary to fit 'standard' content into the space available. The Pro mode will look at your content first and can assign a high encoding bit-rates for content with lots of detail or movement and a lower encoding bit-rate for content with less detail or movement. Pro modes highest encoding bit-rate shouldn't exceed the fxed encoding bit-rate used by Best Peformance.
    For slideshows, you must keep in mind that the DVDs we can make today are low resolution devices - NTSC discs are less than 640x480 pixels at best (that's less than 0.3 megapixels) - so your great 10 megapixel digital images MUST loose a lot of detail in the encoding process.
    FWIW - I recently made several large slideshows using FotoMagico that I felt gave me better quality than iMovie or iDVD directly. Others like Photo to Movie. Both offer free trial versions.

  • I have a bare minimum script with the following line (also had the line echo Hello World, but removed for simplicity).

    I have a bare minimum script with the following line (also had the line echo Hello World, but removed for simplicity).
    #!/bin/sh  <-- only line of code currently in the file
    when I try to run, I get the following error.  Likewise if the line is #!/bin/bash, but /bin/bash is then the bad interpreter.
    -bash: ./test.sh /bin/sh: bad interpreter: Operation not permitted
    I'm running from a terminal window.
    Any helpful hints for resolution?  Thank you in advance.

  • Best place for SlideShows?

    Can any recommend a website for the best free download of codes for slideshows I can use (e.g. lighbox2)
    Thanks in advance

    If you do a search in Google for "jQuery Slide Show" the first page of results has a half dozen or so links like "20 of the best..." or "37 fresh new..."
    Each one of those has the links to demos and downloadable files for all of the slideshows shown.
    Another really good one is http://wowslider.com/jquery-slideshow-huge-demo.html that shows 100 variations of the same script

  • Photo order for slideshow

    I have a directory of 300 photos, numbered 1-300, which are in the order I want them in...they are not in date order at all.   how can i preserve my order when pulling into the organizer in elements for slideshow creation?
    a related topic...any batch renumbering utility in elements?

    Hi,
    I'm not too clear on how you have numbered the photos. If you have just renamed each photo with the number then there could be a problem in ordering the photos in PSE. In PSE, the folder view displays the photos in alphabetic order not numeric order.
    So, photos could appear in a different order:-
    Numeric order :   1, 2, 10, 20
    Alphabetic order : 1, 10, 2, 20
    When renaming photos, to preserve the order for other viewers, it is best to use leading zeros to pad each number (e.g. 001, 020, 300).
    To get them int PSE, just do Get Photos and Videos -> From Files and Folders and point to the folder containing the photos. Note that the getting of the photos does not take a copy of the photos, it just catalogs them.
    Once they have been imported, switch to Folder Location in the Display options (top right) and select the folder where your photos are. If you have the naming right, the photos should appear in the correct order.
    Now create an Album tag and apply it all the photos.
    You can now switch to Thumbnail View in the Display options (my preferred view to work in) and if you select the album tag, the photos should be displayed in the correct order. In album view, you can drag the photos around into the order you want.
    When you want to create you slideshow, just select all the photos in the album.
    Personally, I don't bother renaming photos, I just import them into PSE and select the ones I want and allocate an album tag to them. In album view, I then move the photos around into the order I want and then create the slideshow.
    For you last topic, why do you want to renumber the photos? There is the Export facility which enables you to copy the photos to an new folder and you can apply a sequence number.
    Hope that the above was helpful

  • What is the safest app remover for OS X ?

    What is the safest app remover for OS X  (Yosemite) ?

    So I then assume that you want to know when removal app can figure out if another app installed any malware and if so, then remove it? Of if not, just remove "all" the pieces associated with the app?
    Is that your "wish"?
    If so, I doubt that is gonna be possible. People are pretty clever about how to get bogus software installed as part of another app that appears to be OK, so think it's gonna come down to having somebody else, just as clever hopefully, maybe even more clever, to figure out what exactly is part of an app and then how to remove all of it's pieces. Stick with installing reputable software from the App Store or reputable developers - then you don't need to worry so much about malware.
    The two apps that Eric Root referred to are popular. I use one called "AppCleaner 2". I've used AppZapper but not AppDelete. Between AppZapper and AppCleaner I prefer the latter cause it shows you the exact path of the items it's about to delete where AppZapper just shows the name (not the path which is very important I think), plus AppCleaner seems to do a more thorough job at finding more files pertaining to the app you're trying to get rid of. For example here is what AppZapper and AppCleaner show when removing the same app named AppleWadministrator:
    So AppCleaner found two other files that AppZapper didn't and it shows the paths of all items that it wants to delete.
    But like Eric Root also said - double check all the files that the app cleaner is gonna delete and make sure they make sense.
    Another thing that has helped me many times is to take a screenshot of the app cleaner window - this lets you have a record of the files that were deleted for a particular app (and also the path it came from for AppCleaner but not for App Zapper) so in case you need to recover things from the trash later you know where they should be moved back to.
    Not sure if the "AppDelete" Eric Root referred to is the "AppDelete Lite" in the App Store or not, but if it is, it's $3.99. AppZapper costs $12.95 (but I'v seen it for about half that in MacUpdate promos) and AppCleaner is free, but they can't be obtained from App Store, but from the developers website. Also the "AppDelete Lite" hasn't been updated since May 2014, so it's not clear if it supports Yosemite or not. There is a version called "AppDelete" from the same developer as the "AppDelete Lite" so they must be similar. The AppDelete says it's $7.99 on the developer web site at (but apparently not available on the App Store) and they also have a free trial for the "AppDelete" version. Apparently the main difference between the two versions of AppDelete and AppDelete Lite, is the Lite version can't remove password-protected files to the trash because "App Store apps cannot ask for passwords" according to the developer website at http://www.reggieashworth.com/appdeletelite - the user must do the removal manually with the Lite version but not the full version.
    I just checked RoaringApps website for OS X compatibility and:
         AppCleaner -- works on version 10.6 thru 10.10 (Snow Leopard thru Yosemite)
         AppDelete -- works on version 10.7 thru 10.9 (Lion thru Mavericks)
         AppZapper -- works on version 10.6 thru 10.10 (Snow Leopard thru Yosemite)
    AppZapper can be found at http://www.appzapper.com
    AppCleaner can be found at http://www.freemacsoft.net
    So maybe Eric Root has some experience and could compare AppDelete with AppCleaner and say if AppDelete is worth paying $8 for the full version or $4 for the Lite version or if AppCleaner for free has some deficiencies compared to AppDelete.
    Good luck...
