Help with TIFF image sequence frame rate?

I'm working on an animation sequence, its a 24p project.  Whenever I import an image sequence, Premiere automatically interprets this at 29.97 (though, per the help files, it should automatically interpret at the project frame rate, but it's not).  In the project panel, I use interpret footage so that it interprets at 24p.  However, when I bring this image sequence into the timeline it shows at the right duration, but the end of the sequence is cut off (essentially, premiere is still reading in at 30p, but gives it the duration of 24p).
CS4 is the first version I've had this problem with.. usually, I just bring in the image sequence and it's fine.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Hi, I have the same problem as my workflow is to import R3D into AE CC and render it into Tiff sequence. At first I had changed every setting to 24, and it rendered out choppy and clipped off a few frames in the end.
Now I have tried this
Once you import Tiff, right click> Interpret Footage > Main
Then you will see black box. In this column box, there is Frame Rate column, then tick Assume this frame rate: 24 frames per second.
You have to type in 24 yourself, then it works out fine.
My guess is that Tiff is sequence image, and it DOES NOT have frame rate. So you have to tell AE to assume the imported image sequence's frame rate. Otherwise it always assumes 30 by default.
Hope it works.

  • How to edit 16bit TIFF image sequence file in FCP?

    Dear all,
    I have a number of 16 bit TIFF image sequence files (2048 x 1024 resolution) - some of them are RED footage, and others came directly from our f/x guy. We are going into a color correction session in a post house and we've been asked to provide a sequential 16 bit TIFF image sequence of the edited time line.
    I need to do a cross dissolve b/w most of the clips I have. I have created image sequence QT movie (reference files) from the TIFF images. Though they play fine in QT player, when I try importing into FCP, I am met with a "general error". I tried both dragging it into QT, as well as File --> Import.
    I am wondering what can I do to get these clips into FCP in order to apply the cross dissolve transitions I need. Is this a problem relating to the 16bit nature of the TIFF files?
    I tried exporting the TIFF image sequence standalone QT movie, and those imported fine. However, I have a feeling that the standalone movie conversion also decrease my bit depth from 16 to 8. (When I do my final TIFF output from FCP after dissolves / transitions had been applied, each TIFF file is now 8 MB instead of 12 MB, hence my suspicion that the bit depth is adjusted).
    Are there any settings I am missing, or does FCP simply don't support 16 bit image sequence reference file. As a test, I had also converted all my TIFF to jpg, and created jpeg image sequence reference file. These reference QT file can be successfully imported to FCP and I can edit them as if they are a clip.
    If FCP is not able to handle these files, what are my other options? After Effects?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you.

    As far as I know, both FCP and Color only support up to 10 bit color, which is 1024 levels for each color channel, more than enough for avoiding color banding.
    If you need 16 bit for sure, I believe AE will support 16 bit output. Another 16 bit application would be the extended version of Photoshop, which has some limited time line capability.

  • Is the tiff image sequence in premiere pro cs4 lossless?

    is the tiff image sequence export in premiere pro cs4 lossless or lossy?

    Hi,
    Yeah, that  IS an interesting question...When I looked into the quality exported individual frames I stuck it into photoshop and looked at the mode and image size to see what I was getting ...
    I was kinda ( am still very ) impressed with the quality of the individual images Premiere exports in it's sequences.. and I suppose you could say it is lossless but in part that would be referenced to , " Lossless compared to what ? "
    If I put TIFF images into the timeline to begin with and then got them out again, then it would probably be lossy depending on ppi going in. It's like 72 coming out.
    But anyway, the quality is pretty darn good, I have to say...when you export TIFs...

  • File Out Tiff Image Sequence

    Hello! Can anyone recommend/explain the correct settings in the File Out node to output a TIFF Image Sequence?
    Thanks!

    Wow, I just figured out the Shake problem. First off you are right, my "black background" is an alpha mask. But why is it there?!? It is a "bug" in Shake:
    FileOut - Quicktime Movie - Animation - Options - Compression Settings - "MillionsofColors" - Okay
    Now, when I reopen the FileOut node to double check my Compression Settings, it has defaulted BACK to "MillionsofColors+" So yeah, "MillionsofColors" should result in an alpha-free export BUT SHAKE WILL NOT RETAIN A SELECTION OF ANYTHING OTHER THAN "MillionsofColors+" I tried setting it to "Black and White," "ThousandsofColors" - same issue - the export still has an alpha because Shake took the Compression Setting back to "MillionsofColors+"
    So thanks for all your help on this, I'm glad your system is not operating with this quirk.
    I'm pretty sure I hate Shake.

  • Removing Color Cast with TIFF images?  (PSE 8)

    Hello,
    Hoping someone can help.  I'm trying to "remove color cast" with TIFF images and I'm not seeing the option as available.  It works fine when I try to use it with JPEG images.
    To be clear....I'm using PSE 8...after opening a picture (of course), on the top menu "Enhance", then "Adjust Color".  When I'm working with a TIFF image the option "Remove Color Cast" is not available/active.  It works fine with JPEG images.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    Rich

    Alternatively if you want to keep the file at 16 bit click File >>Open As >>Camera Raw
    Then use the temperature and tint sliders to edit your tiff.

  • Elements 10 canvas not working with tiff images; works fine with jpegs. What to do?

    Elements 10 canvas not working with tiff images; works fine with jpegs. What to do? It does not allow me to add a colored canvas, only a blank canvas.

    Perhaps some of the tiffs are already layers.
    In other words, since jpegs don't support layers, they all ways open with one locked background layer, but the tiff format does
    support layers so the tiffs don't have to have a locked background layer and can already be a regular layer that supports transparency.
    For the tiffs you could add a new color fill layer below and use the color you want the enlarged canvas to be.
    On pse 10 look at the bottom of the layers panel for the new adjustment of fill layer icon

  • Server goes out of memory when annotating TIFF File. Help with Tiled Images

    I am new to JAI and have a problem with the system going out of memory

I don't see anything wrong with that to say Oracle is not smart.
    If i don't disincrease SGA, but increase max-shm-memory, would it work?This needs support from the CPU architecture (32 bit or 64 bit) and the kernel as well. Read more about the huge pages.

  • How to Render a TIFF image sequence with After Effects or Premiere

    So I shot a timelapse in RAW using my D5200.  Developed the images, imported into after effects to make a composition at 1080p 24fps, the clip is 15 seconds long.  Then I rendered the clips a few ways and none of them are what I want:
    I used the H.264 first, its just pixelated and blocky, doesn't retain a smooth resolution. H.264 output an MP4 that was 6.5 MB.
    Then I tried lossless and it output an AVI which is awesome resolution but the file is 2 gigs! Not even VLC media player will play it smoothly without buffering.
    Last I tried H.264 BluRay which output an M4V file which is 45 MB and I can't get it to play.
    So now I'm here asking you all what the way to go is.  When I download films, I will aim for a 1-2 gig 720p or 1080p file on roughly 2hr films.  The resolution is great, the audio is great and the file like I said is only 1.5gigs average.  So what are the rendering settings I should be using to get a file like this? Should I be importing it into Premiere Pro first or what?
    -Thanks
    Bruno
    For Reference, here was my workflow:
    I generally followed an Adorama Rich Harrington Time-Lapse youtube video on workflow which was:
    Developed the Raw files in Camera Raw
    Used the Image Processor to create the Tif files
    Imported into After Effects as a TIF sequence
    Interpreted the sequence as 24fps
    Changed the Composition settings to 1080p 24fps
    Then did the rendering as detailed above

    1. You don't need to export your TIFF sequence so as to import it into After Effects, you can import RAW image sequence into After Effects directly. Camera RAW will start automatically on importing. What is more, you will be able to change your Camera RAW settings at any time you want inside your AE project: in Project panel select your RAW image sequence, right-click, choose Interpret Footage -> Main... In the dialog box click More Options... button (at bottom left), and Camera RAW opens.
    2. Do NOT export to H.264 out of After Effects directly. If you need to export your composition to H.264, export it out of Adobe Media Encoder. Start from HDTV preset. If your goal is to upload your media file on e.g. YouTube, done. If you want to play it back on your computer, but your mediaplayer can't playback it in real time, start to decrease bitrate settings. Keep in mind that modern AVCHD cameras shoot with 28 Mbps, first AVCHD camcorders were shooting with 17 Mbps, YouTube preset in Adobe Media Encoder sets bitrate to 10 Mbps, Vimeo preset - to 8 Mbps.
    Choose VBR, 2 Pass so as to benefit from better quality out of smaller file size.
    See this The Video Road blogpost on Understanding Colour Processing and benefits of Render at Maximum Depth option.
    3. If you're planning to use your After Effects composition in Premiere Pro project, you can use Adobe Dynamic Link. If your After Effects composition is quite complex, render a Digital Intermediate out of After Effects and import it into Premiere Pro. See this discissuon in AE Forum on some production codecs comparison.
    P.S. See also this FAQ: What are the best export settings? entry.

  • Problems with Xml for mixed frame rate clips in 23.98 sequence

    When an XML from an fcpx sequence which has mixed frame rate clips in 23.98 timeline is put through X2Pro the resulting AAF is incorrect as the non 23.98 clips are out of sync and have the wrong frame conversion applied. The same thing happens with the XML through Xto7 - the fcpxml appears not to be handling the frame rate conversion correctly in the XML process.
    Anyone else had this or know of a workaround ( other than converting all media to 23.98 before editing obviously!)

    What happened to us is that the DP shot all the footage in 59.94 mode. Some at 60p, and some at 24p WITHOUT pulldown. We tried capturing it again as 24p at 23.98 but it wouldn't come in that way. So we had to live with it at 59.94. And yes, we couldn't slip it on the timeline, we had to match back to the master clip and choose different in points until it came in right.
    It was a horrible mess and we won't be hiring that DP again. I hope that re-capturing does it for you, it didn't for us.
    Good Luck.

  • Help with adding a custom frame to an image slider

    Hi all,
    I'm currently designing a vintage themed website, i need to have a slider that displays certain images and intend on using the Menucool slider.
    Only problem is, i need the slider to have a vintage type border or frame...similar to this:
    https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=vintage+style+frame&client=firefox-a&hs=ATp&rls=org.mozi lla:en-GB:official&channel=sb&…
    How do i do this?
    Do i just center the image on the page and then add the slider to the image or will they end up side by side instead?
    Any help will be much appreciated!
    Thanks!
    Vikki

    Unless you need to click the text or have HTML/links in the slider then I wouldn't overlay an absolute div over the top as it will conflict. Some sliders use absolute positioning as well and can cause issues when it comes to z-index/slides switching.
    If you want the border to be animated (i.e. slide with the image) you are going to want to wrap your slides around a div and then style that, or if its to border the slider itself then just wrap a div around the complete slider.
    This will ensure then background image (frame) will stay behind the content and any html/links are still clickable.

  • Best way to work with large image sequences

    Hello,
    Im relatively new to Adobe CS4. I am learning to create detailed animations with another software that produces thousands of still images. (I normally save them as  .png, 720 x 480, 29.97 fps) I spent the money to buy CS4 becuase I was told this was what I needed to turn those images into video, add titles, captions, credits, etc. So far, I've been useing PremierPro to import the image sequences and add titles. But when I export the sequences, the quality is crap. I've tried all combinations of exporting formats, but even when I try to go for the greatest quality, my files are 100 MB large, and the quality is still crap (nice smooth lines are jagged, and details are blurry and pixilated, even with the titles I added). Can someone tell me how I should be working with these still image sequences so that I can retain the best quality while keeping the file size large. These videos are just played on local computer systems, not over a network or on DVDs. I dont know if I should be bringing the shorter clip sequences into AfterEffects and somehow exporting those. I just dont know. But nothing is working for me. Help!
    Nikki

    Hello!,
    The output frame size has so far been the same as my rendering size (720 x 480), but I's just trying to get the best quality, if I need to render larger I can. Delivery has so far just been video, no audio, although when I get better at this I will record narrations of the animations and put that in. Playback is intended only for computers. Every once in a while, it is requested in a format that will be played over our network, but I wanted to worry about that later.
    The preset I chose for the sequence was the DV-NTSC Standard 32kHz
    The project/sequence settings are:
    General
         Editing Mode: DV NTSC
         Timebase: 29.97 fps
    Video
         Frame size: 720, 480 4:3
         Pixel Aspect Ratio: D1/DV NTSC (0.9091)
         Display Format: 30 fps Non-Drop-Frame Timecode
    Audio
         doesnt matter
    Video Previews
         Preview File Format: NTSC DV
         Codec: DV NTSC
         Maximum Bit Depth
    Hope that was the information you requested.

  • Help with partial image loss from Viewer to Canvas

    Hi--I'm brand new to FCP and would really appreciate any help with my problem. I'm creating 2 second video clips composed of four still images (15 frames...or 500ms each) laid back to back, then rendered. Very simple, I know. The individual images are tiff files that look great in the FCP Viewer. But in the Canvas, part of the image is missing. Specifically, in the center of each image there should be a + sign, about 1cm square. This + should remain constant thoughout the short movie, while the items around it vary (from image to image). (This is a psychology experiment, and the center + is a fixation cross.) The problem is that in the Viewer the + sign is intact, but in the Canvas (and the resulting rendered video), only the vertical bar of the + is present! This is true for every individual tiff, and for the resulting movie. The items around the fixation cross are fine. My question is WHY on earth does the central horizontal bar get "lost" between the Viewer and the Canvas? I've read the manuals, but obviously I've got something set wrong. Also, there is a considerable overall reduction in quality between the viewer and canvas, even though I'm trying my best to maximize video quality. Everything looks a bit blurry. Truly, all ideas are welcome. Sorry if it's obvious. Thanks.

    steve, i'm viewing on my 23" cinema screen. i read up on quality and know that this is a no-no; that i should only judge quality when viewing on an ntsc monitor or good tv. the problem is that i'll ultimately be displaying these videos on my Dell LCD, so i've got to maximize what i've got. thanks to the discussion boards i have a short list of things to try now. thanks!

  • Exporting DPX sequence: frame rate incorrect in exported file

    Hello all, I'm new here.  I'd really appreciate some help with this issue.  My sequence and source files I am working with are 2048x1240, (1.0), 23.976 fps .  I am exporting a DPX file sequence with matching settings.

    Hi there.
    I am having the same exact problem, in CS6.
    BUT, I have exported this project countless times, and only after my last edit has it started to export at 29. My entire movie is in 23.97. I have tried interpreting the one clip that is 29, but this does not help. It will not allow me to interpret the whole project at once.
    Are there any other solutions?
