Importing from AECS5 to AECS4: Color issues:

Hello,
I have a logo created in vector graphics in AICS5.
The RGB value of the blue I am using in AI is 0079c1.
However, when I import the .AI file into AECS4, the blue turns into 095AA5.
I tried to adjust the color management in AE but no luck. What steps should I take to assure the color does not change between AI and AE?
I searched in help and found this link:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/aftereffects/cs/using/WSF97D54F0-EBD5-4db1-BD4C-D5AD36A2AABBa. html
But this did not change anything in my case.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Simon

Thanks to a friend, I fixed it.
I had to convert the AI logo to RGB and then it worked and used color management with RGB in AE.

  • Import from H/D and Suffix issues

    I have imported a friends photos from his hard drive into LIghtroom 5 and all is good. One issue however is that MANY files have a double suffix, ie P100016.JPG.jpg or IMG-104.PSD.JPG.  I haven;t the slightest idea how he did that but wonder about advice to fix. Also, a folder in his Photos is called Adobe Bridge Cache and it contains thousands of photos when viewed from Lightroom, yet that same folder when viewed from Bridge, says nothing to display. All are also visible when viewed through Explorer. I have a mess on my hands and am unsure how to clean it up.

    In general, you wouldn't want a Cache folder to be imported into Lightroom, so if I were you, I would simply delete the photos in this folder from Lightroom (but do not delete from the hard disk)
    With regards to the files with double suffixes, if everything is working properly, I would leave it alone. Don't fix it if it ain't broke.

  • Color Balance Issue importing from DV Deck Via Firewire...

    The fact that searching google and this formum has lead to me finding NO results, I am wondering whether anyone has or is experiencing similar issues..
    For some time now, I have been having this issue, which I just realized is not normal. I have a Sony DV Cam Deck which I use to import via Firewire to Premiere CS5.5. Attached to the Sony Deck I also have a small monitor connected to the composite video output.
    The color and white balance look fine on the small monitor, however on the import via firewire, there is tinge through it almost like an incorrect white balance.
    YES, I have calibrated and Re-Calibrated my Computer monitors using Spyder3 and when viewing photos and other video not imported through the deck, the color is great.. .It is NOT a problem with the Deck because the SAME thing happens with a friends Deck. I am just using the standard Firewire import on the ASUS Motherboard, although I do have a Blackmagic Studio2 card. This does not really come into it during firewire import....
    As I said, now that I realized, this has been happening for 2 years or more. I was always color correcting the camera mans footage thinking his whitebalance was out, but after now attaching an external monitor to the Deck whilst firewire import, I notice the color is fine on the monitor. I am in PAL land Australia, but it happens with NTSC footage as well...
    Anyone ever experienced this or know of this issue????
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated...
    Thanks Tony.

    The footage is mainly from the same camera, although occasionally I edit two camera shoots so the other camera is a different model, but this also has a different colour balance after imported.. I have used two identical Sony decks, and my latest acquirsition is a Sony HDV Deck that will natuarally play both. I get the same results from all three decks.
    Yes I have rendered footage with no correction or effects and watched it back on a Sony TV/Monitor. Colour is out.
    I suppose the tinge looks exactly like an incorrect colour temperature setting, but i know it is correct because when I playback the deck directly into a TV through composite it is fine. Example Warm tone Beige Curtains in a Reception Center look like they have a bad green Cast. Skin tones are no where near natural, again a green cast. I am not sure what is going on..
    But yes, it has been there for a couple of years and it just hit me like a tone of bricks after getting this new deck. On previous decks, I never had a monitor connected to the composite and only monitored through the firewire so I always assumed the colour white balance on the cameramans camera is out. WHen I set this deck up, I put a montior on the composite. Yesterday as I was importing source footage, I glanced over and it amazed me to see that the composite monitor on the deck had beautiful rich acurate colour on it, whilst what was coming in on the pc screen, even after playing it back on the TV/Monitor, was horrible.
    So I thought, Hell all these years I have been spending hours colour correcting footage that was ok to start with but lost somting in the transfer?? HOW?? I haven't got a clue.. It really doesnt make sence and I am still trying different experiments. I am now going to import through the component and svideo outputs of the deck, to see what results I get... I will post that later.. Thank you all.

  • How do I find images in LR 2.4 (imported from CS4 Bridge) that have color labels already assigned In CS4 Bridge? I have set both Bridge and LR color labels text to match (eg Green for green, etc).

    How do you find images in LR 2.4 that have been imported from CS4 Bridge and have been assigned a color label in Bridge?  I have set both LR 2.4 and my CS4 Bridge to match the text for each color to be the same (eg. Green for green, etc), and the filter search in LR 2.4 shows that a label has been assigned, but I am unable to identify and locate the specific images in LR 2.4 that have had a color label assigned from CS4 Bridge.  I have tried to search via attribute, metadata, text, etc...Is it necessary to re-assign color labels all over again, image by image, in LR 2.4, or is there a way to automatically have the color labels assigned in CS4 Bridge be assigned and searchable to the images after they have been imported into the LR 2.4 catalogue from the Bridge program?

    JohnM.
    I closed both programs and re-imported photos and re-tried the action of having LR  read the XMP metadata from the CS4 files, and it seems to work now just fine...don't know why now and not before, but thanks much. Is there a way to have LR do this automatically upon import of images from CS4?  I tried to do this with an import metadata preset, but no luck.  It seems as if I can only do this once the images have already been imported into LR, and then to have to have LR read the metadata from the CS4 Bridge files.  thanks gain.

  • Issues with importing from excel

    I have been running into a several issues with importing from Excel.
    First my configuration
    I am running SQL Developer ver 1.5.5 Build MAIN-5969
    I am on a Windows XP Professional Version 2002 with Service Pack 3
    I am importing into an Oracle 10g database.
    1. SQL Developer doesn't work on Excel 2007, I have to save all my files into Excel 97-2003 format before I can use them.
    2. If I run into an error loading and stop the process, SQL Developer doesn't release the Excel file and I get a sharing violation if I try to save the spreadsheet without closing SQL Developer.
    3. I have found that I have to set print area to the area I want to work with, otherwise the import wizard tries to keep adding rows.
    4. When using the Import wizard, it keeps adding commas on fields with numerics unless I specify the column in excel as text. Currently the column is formatted as General in the spreadsheet or I can change the wizard format to say the column is an integer, but it actually is just a code field with numeric characters so it may have leading zeroes that I need to keep.
    This might be related,
    I have a column in excel defined as text but only contains numerics. It is of length 4, but the wizard sets a precision of 5 with a datatype of VARCHAR2. If I try to change it to 4, I get an error saying the field is not large enough. Yet, when I do a LEN on the column, it only gives me a 4. I have other fields in the same sheet that a 3 position numeric and 2 position numeric and those are fine. I am thinking this is related to the comma being inserted in a numeric field for anything greater than 3 positions.
    5. Importing excel dates to oracle dates doesn't work. I have to convert the excel date column to text then import as a VARCHAR, then convert to Date once in the database.
    6. The default of nullible is not set on any columns and I have to set them before the import. (I would prefer it set to nullible and I have to uncheck the box to make it not nullible. I would prefer to import all of the data and then deal with the nulls after they have been pulled in)
    7. When I select header columns included it uses that as the column names. Is it possible to do the name length check then? It has bit me a few times where I try to import and forget to check the name length and then I get an error when I start running the import.
    8. If one of the columns to import has all nulls, then the precision comes out to 0 and if it isn't changed an error occurs on import. Could this situation default to a precision of 1?
    9. It would be nice if there was a completion message displayed and a cancel option while running.

    On point 3.
    I have a column in excel that consists of numbers. 4 digit numeric codes. Ex, 1111, 2345, etc
    The column's format is general. It displays as just 4 numbers.
    When I start the wizard initially, the column appears with data as 1,111, 2,345, etc, on the Data Preview screen.
    It determines the precision to be 5 on the column definition screen.
    If I change the precision to 4 then continue, that field will error out when I verify with "not big enough to hold the data in source columns"
    If, I change the excel column to a TEXT column.
    Excel still displays as 1111, 2345, etc
    The wizard then displays the same data 1111, 2345 on the Data Previeiw screen
    Yet, when I get to the column definition screen it still sizes it as a 5
    If I change it to a 4, I get the same error when verifying.
    If I leave them alone as 5, then it processes just fine.

  • Anyone having issues with large Import from Catalog w/ LR 5.3?

    I'm trying to consolidate into a single master LR catalog from several different machines, and keep having one of the three Import from Catalog operations I need to do fail.
    I've had LR 5.3 fail to do a large (5000+) item Import from Catalog twice now - and fail in exactly the same place (after importing 2000 items) but with differences in the error output.
    First time I got a message about the video items - fine, pulled those out of the export. DId so, started up again, failed after 2000 items again, but this time after clicking Cancel (with a half-stuck progress bar after running overnight) no error message was displayed.
    Since I can't find Release Notes or a list of known issues (or where to open a defect report), I'm posting here. Anyone from Adobe out there?

  • Color shift on re-import from PS (13.0.1) to LR (4.2), Windows.

    Hi!
    I've got strange subtle color shift from reds to yellows when I'm doing the following:
    1) import my raw files as DNG into LR
    2) edit them in LR
    3) ctrl-E them to edit in PS
    4) edit them in PS (just drawing a dot with the brush tool somewhere, so the file could be saved and re-imported to LR)
    5) save (not "save as") them in PS which bring them back as tifs to LR
    This final tif from PS has some color shift in comparison to the original DNG file. Nothing is edited in PS.
    Furthermore:
    - if I'll open to edit the resulted tif with the color shift in PS once again with the option to use LR adjustments, I'm getting color shift in PS
    - if I'll open to edit the resulted tif with the color shift in PS once again with the option to open the original tif without LR adjustments, I'm getting correct color in PS, as in my original DNG
    LR - ProPhotoRGB
    PS - ProPhotoRGB
    Thanks for any help and suggestions!

    I can't explain why your results are slightly different than mine, but I think I know what is happening. The DNG you posted is very heavily clipped with RawDigger showing about 4Mpixels at 100% RGB. You can download RawDigger to see for yourself:
    http://www.rawdigger.com/
    I noticed you didn't apply any Basic panel settings, which is probably why there is such a large difference between the DNG and rendered TIFF images. LR4 PV2012 uses "image adaptive controls with fairly complex algorithms that interact from top-down:
    Exposure>Contrast>Highlights>Shadows>Whites>Blacks
    In other words the Exposure setting affects how all of the other controls beneath it will function. I agree that it shouldn't matter and that the rendered TIFF should match the raw file, but it looks like the PV2012 rendering engine fails with very heavily clipped images (i.e. large areas of 100% RGB in the raw file) and ‘0’ Exposure setting.
    You can correct this by trying not to overexpose the image during the shoot. For the lighting in this DNG image a -.5EV to -1.0EV exposure bracket would get you closer to a full dynamic range image. You can always clip the highlights inside LR, so there's no need to heavily clip the original shot (especially with studio lighting).
    For the model images you have now I would set LR's Exposure to -.5EV to -1.0EV (i.e. to adjust midtone exposure) and then adjust the other Basic panel setting in a top-down manner. Usually setting -Highlights = +Shadows works best for most images. Next adjust Whites to set your white clipping point (hold down Alt key) and Blacks for the black clipping point. Next tweak Exposure if the midtones are too dark or light and then lastly adjust contrast, which I use sparingly (i.e. ±25).
    Here are the Basic Panel settings I used:
    Exposure -0.50, Contrast 0, Highlights -50, Shadows +50, Whites 25, Blacks -45
    I also adjusted Clarity to -25 to retain the high-key look.
    With the above settings the DNG and Edit in PS TIFF histograms look identical on my system. The key is to adjust Exposure to set the midtones, which helps the PV2012 rendering algorithms to work properly. Please let me know if this works the same on your system.

  • Importing from powerpoint...508 compliance issues

    Accessibility is important to my agency but importing from powerpoint results in slides a screen reader can't read and the image tags identified in the powerpoint don't show up in published projects.  Subject matter experts create the content, I put them in captivate 5.5 to add features and make them play with my LMS (SCORM).  Adobe says published SCORM projects are 508 compliant but I can't seem to get them to actually BE compliant.  Any ideas?  I don't see anything in any of the tutorials or available documentation or from iconlogic.

  • Color import from web files feature

    There is new feature mentioned in CC specs:
    NEW Color import from web files. Import color swatches directly from HTML, CSS, or SVG files — for inspiration, or to easily match the color schemes of existing web content.
    Where is it placed? I was unable to find something similar in menus/toolbars/palletts.

    In the swatches palette, open a file - then you can select a CSS, HTML, or SVG file in addition to ACO and ASE files.

  • AGAIN COLOR ISSUE - IMPORT RENDERING

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!
    Hello to hear again of me, I post again the import color issue because I'm looking for a clear answer and I don't want to philosophize about color management and studying books about that. I wonder why the color management on my MacBook Pro was perfectly running before, and then suddenly it changed. Before I had great and accurate color in PS and LR, everything was identical and then suddenly LR adds this this strange color correction over every image. How is that possible!? I made another test, I tried to save one image in different ways, like tif, jpg and psd and I converted the image as well to different color profiles before saving. Sometimes they appear in the import menu in the correct colors, some time LR changes them, but in the library it adds to all files the strange color correction. I want to highlight again, that it was before okay and then without a specific reason it changed. I have LR installed also on a Mac Pro, where it still runs as it used to run, we will see for how long. I'm really a bit upset! It is not possoble anymore to judge the images right, even now I have to switch to my previous viewer application to show shootings to my clients. Creating webgaleries with LR also became useless now, because of false colors. Also there is no possibility to set the color mangement in LR to your workflow.
    In this spirit hoping for a solution!

    Good for you Franky66, Glad you got it sorted.
    Happy New Year!

  • This Question is at least 2.5 years old.  But still an issue.  I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7.  Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

    I have an early 2008 and mid 2010 13 inch macbook pro running iTunes 10.7.  Itunes on both machines doesn't recognize blank cds or allow me to import from a music cd when I insert it.

    iTunes does not use the .xml it uses the .itl
    If you are sure your old library file migrated across (does the file size and modification dates suggest it has?) start iTunes while holding down the option/alt key and guide it to the .itl file to get it to use that one.

  • No luck importing from SonyHandycam DCR-DVD650?  I am using USB import to my MacBook that is running OSX 10.6.8. The MacBook is not recognizing the camera.  Any ideas what the issue could be?

    I am not having any success in importing my videos from Sony Handycam DCR-DVD 650 to my mac book.  I am using the USB connection.  The macbook is not recognizing the camera.  The macbook is running OSX 10.6.8.  Any ideas on what the problem could be?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2361 There's a recommendation that when using this camera to record in the 'Standard' format instead of VR format. So if you know what the setting was you used to record the disk that's a starting point.
    According to this website the camera should be compatible with iMovie '11
    http://help.apple.com/imovie/cameras/en/index.html?lang=en_US
    So here's some steps to take to get the Mac to recognize your camera.
    1. Try it more than a few times, sometimes it can take 2-4 attempts to get iMovie to recognize a camera for the first time.
    2. Always get the power adapter for your camera out of the bag. Hook it to the wall outlet, then plug your camera into that. Don't run it off the battery.
    3. With the camera plugged into the wall, in DV playback mode. Hit play and just let it play video out continuously, then reboot the Mac. As soon as you see the desktop, launch iMovie. Go to File Menu > Import from Camera and see if the Capture window opens with your video playing through.
    4. Make sure iPhoto doesn't try to launch itself automatically when it detects your camera has been connected to the Mac. Sometimes it tries to steal the videos off of a camera and 'blocks' iMovie from seeing the camera when it's attached. So make sure iPhoto hasn't interecepted your camera and is not running at all when you launch iMovie
    No guarantees, but some things to try

  • Problem importing Sequence from FCP 7 to Color 1.5!!!!!

    I am trying to export a Sequence from FCP 7 into Color and am experiencing problems. When I send the Sequence to Color from FCP 7 Color receives the incorrect in and out points for many of the clips in my original FCP sequence. All of the footage being used was captured with the same settings from the same camera (Canon xha1). I have made all of the clips in my sequence that had basic motion effects into self-contained QT movies, so the basic motion ramping I've done shouldnt be a problem, right? There are no filters on the clips either. After hours and hours of searching, reading, and trial and error I cant figure out why Color will not recognize and play the clips as they appear in FCP. This is killing me and the project I am working on is due ASAP.
    Any idea what I am doing wrong? Thanks.

    In the Logging Info tab in Item Properties, the self contained QT movies I made have a TC Rate of 24 whereas the normal clips from the sequence have a TC rate of 30. Could this be the reason Color wont read the sequence correctly?
    I have tried to remake the self contained QT movies with the Apple ProRes 422 1440x1080 30p 48khz setting, yet still the TC Rate shows 24. What am I doing wrong?
    You probably have "24" fps media on a 29.97 fps timeline, which would explain a few other things, especially why the in/out points are wrong on the COLOR timeline. COLOR does not look at express timecodes -- it functions like a good old fashioned EDL and works on durations -- so if the frame rate disagrees, the trims will also be incorrect.
    I have no idea how you are making the self-contained QTs. Are you using Export QT, or Conversion? Are you manipulating the export settings in any way? Are you exporting from the timeline?
    I myself am very disappointed with Apple's inability to cope with 23.98/29.97, because you are also dealing with three flavours of cadence/pull-down, not all of which are handled correctly, especially with ProRes.

  • Issues importing from Canon Rebel T3i after upgrading to Mavericks and Lightroom 5

    Hi there,
    I just upgraded to Mavericks and Lightroom 5 on a 2008 Macbook Pro.
    LR5 is working fine on my photos that have already been imported.  However, when I plug in my camera to import new files (RAW and JPEG), the camera does not even mount - aka. does not show up as a possible source at all.  I have tried turning off and on, restarting, and using the old LR4 to see if that would solve the problem, but it did not.  I also tried importing from the EOS Utility, but that does not recognize the camera as a possible source either.  Please HELP!
