Problem with effect in fcpx 10.0.9

Hi,
almost all the effect don't work.
When I go on the effect icon with the mouse, nothing append and when i apply the effect on a sequence, it is the same, nothing append.
When i increase the amount of the effect, the screen become black (like as i decrease the opacity).
I have uninstall fcpx yesterday (following the instruction of apple) and reinstall but the problem stays.
my configuration:
imac 2013 with OSX 10.8.4
fcpx 10.0.9
tks for your help

TileList problem with effects - 'RangeError: Index '8′ specified is out of bounds.' error.

Flex 3.0 beta TileList problem with effects
I have a problem with deleting item from a Flex 3.0 beta
TileList component. While a delete item effect is playing and I
delete another item (while the first effect is still playing) , I
get an ‘RangeError: Index ‘8′ specified is out of
bounds.’ error. How do you delay processing until the effects
are done? or is there another solution? do I use a callLater()? or
remove the eventListener and wait until the effect finishes?
To see the problem, hit the down error twice quickly.

Problems with importing in FCPX

I am having problems with importing my recent holiday video intoFCPX I have copied all the files from my Panasonic camera into my separate hard drive and they all appear there correctly.
When I connect the camera to the computer it automatically opens in iPhoto which is a nuisance as I have to stop it from doing so.
Now comes the problem when I ask to import media into a new project FPCX simply freezes and stops responding.
If I ask FPCX to import direct from the camera it says it can't re-import because all the material is already in the second hard drive where I store my projects.
So in a nutshell the programme simply does not respond to importing.
Any help please or is this a technical problem I have with my Mac.
Thanks
A new iMac version 10.9.2
OS Mavericks
FPC up dates are all installed

First, what specific camera are you using?
Next, create a folder on your hard drive, give it a name you'll recognize, then copy the entire contents of your camera card into it, keeping the full file/folder heirchy in tact. Disconnect the camera. Then import from that folder.
What do you mean specifically when you say "the programme simply does not respond to importing"? That is sort of a vauge statement.
Finally, go into the Preferences of iPhoto, you can set it to NOT open when you plug your camera in, and never have that happen any longer.

Final Cut Pro X problems with effects and grading

I have just finishied cutting my first project in FCPX and I must say I'm amazed over how fun it is to work with it.
However, I have some problems that I think is a bug or something related to my hardware, would like some input on this.
My machine is an early 2008 MacPro that has been "slightly" re-modified"
I'm running 10.7.5 from a 512GB SSD and all my material is on an internal RAID with 4 brand-new Seagate 3TB Barracudas. My graphicsboard is taken from a 2009 MacPro and is an ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB.
I'm running FCPX version 10.0.8
The material I've edited is both 1080P/25fr and 720P/50fr
One thing that has been heavy on my machine is the fact that I have cut parts of it in Multi-clip- I have up to 10 angels running at once. Yeah, I guess that could cause a crash but I don't see why that should account for my problems as written below.
I can't really say that I have noticed anything that indicates that my machine is to slow or old.
So, the problem then...
I have done a lot of grading in several levels and I've also added a few effects. On different occations the grading has disappeared and effects have been reset. Also I had a situation where a certain effect looked different when I added it a second time on the same clip.
I put a vignette over the whole project and when I restarted the program the following day, it had reset to become a black oval.
On top of this the program has been shutting down on ocasion, although that hasn't been very frequent.
Anyone have any thoughs on this? Is it just a question of installing Mountain Lion?
/Gunnar

I have proxy media for all of it. it's only the software that shuts down luckily
One things that confuses me is that I just took the foilders to an exrternal drive and opened on my laptop and it seams to work fine. Except for the fact that the machine is to slow it shows the grading and the effects correctly.
Maybe I should throiugh out prefs files or simply reinstall the whole thing.
I might also mention that I'm running FCP7 on the same machine.
I used the Apple Knowledge file that said to start the old Motion before starting FCPX for the first time.
I do think you have a point in that the multicam clips could be the issue, gonna se if I can solve that somehow.
Is there a way to make them "render" or convert into regular clips so the timeline doesn't read from the Multiclip once I've edited?

Having problems with effects and having to unlock panels to get them to work?

I am having problems getting panels to work... the scrolling function is locked.... but when I undock the panel so it floats freely the scrolling function comes back--this happens with the effects and project panels (prbably others as well).... then sometimes they will stop working and I have to redock the panel to get it to work! This is a real problem at the moment. When I put a video effect on a clip on the timeline the down arrow will not function... so I can open up the effect and make the settings I want. I have a .3pg file from a camera phone that needs to be rotated!
I am running CS4 with Matrox card. By next week I will be upgrading to CS5... but my computer needs to upgraded...will be doing this next Tuesday.
My comuter properties are as follows Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6600 @ 2.4GHz 2.39GHz, 8 GB RAM, 64-bit operating system

Okay... so I closed Premiere and restarted it.... no the down arrows work... but there is a pregnant pause before the effects function opens or when I close it there is a pause. Not sure why1 This isn't heavy intensive stuff I am doing.

Problems with effects

I'm getting uneven application of effects in the above video, and I'm wondering what I'm doing wrong.
I just built my own rig so that I could handle effects well.
I've been very impressed with warp stabilization so far. But this is the first time I've piled a few effects on top of each other.
This is the rig:
Intel i7 4770k CPU @ 3.5 GHZ
16 GB RAM
GEFORCE GTX 760 GPU
Asrock Z87 Extreme 4 Motherboard
I'm using PP CC 7.
In the above shot, I've synchronized two cameras and external sound in multi cam synchrinozation.
I've applied auto color and auto contrast to all clips just to try to get the footage from separate cameras to look somewhat close together. And camera 1 looks fine. The problems are with camera 2, especially at 1:07 - 1:38 where I've applied warp stabilizer as well as the color and contrast corrections. Camera 2 also appears at 3:27 - 3:39 and 4:05 - 4:27, and these are problematic even without the warp stabilizer added on.
I'd appreciate any insight as to what limitations I'm bumping into. Many thanks,
Doug

the order that you add the effects has influence on how they actually work .. like if you add something and then something on top of that .. it might look different than the other way around... so see if you added your effects in the same order as the one you like .. might make a difference...
warp stabilizer basically upresez your video about 20% ( it crops your original and gives you back 80% of it ) sooo, that might be affecting how stuff looks too..
I sorry but didnt look at your sample, cause I dont think I'd be able to figure out whats up from that .. looks nice though. the still image at head of video of those guys playing.. good luck !

Problems with effects being lost between motion and final cut?

Hi I have an older version of motion, I am editing a video for my course and I have made some motion graphics with some blurs and fades etc (just this kids of effect, nothing else), when they are imported into final cut they disapear all i have is static text or graphics that crawl across the screen...
Is this a bug?
If I let software update do its job would these problems go away.
Just so you know Final cut 5.1.4 and Motion 2.0.1
thanks in advance if anyone can help.
Matt

Great fix....I started a compression to NTSC and it should be done in 3 hours, I will then boot up FCP, chose a 1 minute clip...follow your directions to the T. and compare the results....I did have this solved when I used NTSC 4:3 before; however, when I chose the menu with the mpeg2 codec, I thought that it would be faster....

Problem with effectiveness of filters

I have at several occasions run into cases were the built in "query optimizer" don’t apply filters in the best order from a performance point of view when dealing with multiple filters joined together using AND-filters.
As a work-around to the problem I have sub classed the built-in filters adding an extra constructor that allow setting the effectiveness as a hard coded integer value that (if specified) is returned instead of the calculated value. This way I was able to force an AND filter to pick the filter I know (from application knowledge) is most likely the most efficient first.
Would it be possible to get this kind of constructor added to the standard filter classes?
I would also like to know how a few things about how indexes are used by Coherence:
1.     How does the various built in filters calculate there effectiveness? Do coherence for instance keep some statistics about how many unique values an index contain or how does it decide what index that is more effective than another?
2.     Can Coherence use more than one index at the same time (i.e. merge indexes)? From my experience it seems like only one index is used fully, other indexes are only used to avoid de-serialization when performing a linear search of the hits from the first index. As far as I know only the most advanced RDBM are able to use more than one index (instead of only performing linear search from the result of one index) so I am not really surprised if Coherence do the same...
3.     Does making an index sorted in any way improve the performance if the index is used as the second or third index applied in a query (one could envision that some sort of binary search could be used instead of linear search of the hits from the first index used if a sorted index is available)?

You can simply create a wrapper filter which implements IndexAwareFilter and wraps another IndexAwareFilter. The calculateEffectiveness should be implemented as you want it, and you can delegate applyIndex() and evaluateEntry() to the wrapped filter.

MagnusE wrote:

Of course if you form a logical expression between two filters using different extractors, indexes to both extractors will be used if they exist. The applyIndex() and calculateEffectiveness() methods receive all indexes in the mapIndexes parameter, so your custom index-aware filter can use any number of existing indexes at the same time.

This is independent of what other filters you use in your logical expression, the evaluation of the subexpression on the sorted index will still be more efficient than if the index was unsorted.

Problems with effects in PSE 10 (was from cappy pappy)

I have an IMAC and use PSE 10 for my photoshop. I have several Florabella add ons that I use and was trying to add some new ones last night. So I went through the usual steps but when I went from photo creations to photo effect there was no photo effect screen. It goes straight from the screen with photo creations to the list panel. Maybe I accidently deleted something. Can anyone know how to fix this?
Message was edited by: cappy pappy

Hello and thax for responding.
No, that was one of the first things we tried.
My helpful guy in the store went into Terminal and tried to figure out why all the files were tied to Administrator and needed Root password to move or delete.
Even the folder that he created via Terminal (he added a folder just to see what happended) got the + mark after it and was there by not able to move or add files into, without admin password.
I also used the 10.6 startup DVD to go in and try to reset the ACL for my internal SSD drive, but that did not seem to help either.
There is something about these files and disk that is not giving my Macbook permissions to change the info.
Can also maybe be good to know that before the disk crashed, I managed to use time maschine to back it up. I hooked up the disk to my computer, added another backup disk and backed up my Internal MacBook drive together with the (about to) crashing disk. Then I copied the info from this time machine disk on to the New Drive.
What I believe I need is to re-write the permissions on the disk so that not only admin are allowed to change the info but I have no idea how to do that.
Hope this gives you a little more of a clue what´s is going on and that you have an idea how to solve it.
Thanx

Problems with effects ans resolution

</mx:transitions>

Actually, the effect looks good but there's a bug I can't explain... Here's the result when I click on the button in the Parcours Box in the bottom right :
There's a transition but it looks bad and after the transition it looks like this :
Well the transition looks good here. But do you know why is there this problem apparently from the box
Secondly, as you can see in the second picture, there's a problem of resolution. Here's my code of my Canvas :
<code>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="1000" height="1314">
</code>
And I can put any numbers in Width and height, it's the same result. Do you know why ?
Thank you

What do you mean by auto-layout ?
Well, Indead I use :
<code>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="1000" height="1314"
creationComplete="parcoursData.send()" >
</code>
What I have to put instead of this Canvas ?

Problem with Blur filters in effects browser

Has anyone had a problem with the blur filters? Whenever I try to skim or apply any blur effect it freezes the viewer. Other effects are fine. Other functions of FCPX still work ok. The audio is ok, skimming works etc but the viewer is frozen. FCP then hangs on shutdown and requires a force quit, but relaunches fine. I have trashed FCPX permissions, repaired permissions for the OS, repaired the HD and redownloaded the application all to no avail. I also have FCPX installed on another startup drive and it does the same thing there. My computer is an iMAC 27 inch I7 with 4 gigs of RAM runing 10.6.8. FCPX is version 10.0.3.
I did open a copy of the zoom blur effect in Motion and the only unusual thing I noticed was that there is a project loop end marker set at frame 1 of the project. Don't know if that is a factor. Any help greatly appreciated!

I am refering to any of the blur category filters in the effects browser. I think there are like 6 of them sharpen, gaussian, prism, radial, and zoom. What happens is if I select a clip then go to the effects browser and scroll over the filters I will initially see a preview as you are supposed to. But very quickly that stops and if I go back to the timeline the viewer is frozen showing the previously selected clip. All the rest of FCP works normally ie you can scroll the timeline, select clips, use the tools etc. Only the viewer is frozen. You have to force quit FCP and restart to get back to normal. None of the other effects in effects browser cause any problems.
I said in my first message all the things I have tried unsuccessfully. This one is a real puzzler for me.

Troubles with effects and colors in FCPX 10.1.4

Hi to everybody.
I have a problem with colors using the effects.
Lets look at more less neutral picture (picture no 1)
ftp://ftp.strefa.pl/Zrzut%20ekranu%202014-12-16%20o%2022.34.30%20%283%29.jpg
If you look at the RGB Parade you see the down part of the RGB distribution is ok.
But if I start to use any effects the Parade changes in this way:
ftp://ftp.strefa.pl/Zrzut%20ekranu%202014-12-16%20o%2022.34.54%20%283%29.jpg
You see, that the down part of the color distribution (for all 3: red. green and blue) is cut-off, even when I use the effects which shouldn't influence on the color.
I spent some hours to find any logic, and I discovered following regularity:
1. The source movie I imported came from Nikon D7100 (.mov), 1920/1080i
2. The behavior of FCPX during the playback of those clips is crazy and ustable (few seconds like in pict.1 few second like in pic. 2).
3. I have instaled the newest versions of Nikon D7100 firmware and of course FCPX 10.1.4. I think (not 100% sure) the trouble with FCPX appeared after 10.1.4 update.
4. I don't have any troubles with other camcorder (Canon XF 100)
Did somebody have simillar effects / troubles with FCPX? Any solutions? I have a job to do, and this situation completly devastating my deadlines.
Regards

iMac i5 2.5 GHz, 8GB RAM, AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB

You would probably find more direct help by talking to other Nikon shooters who use FCPX. M
I don't know anything about the Nikon codec or why it might be giving you trouble while others do not but have you tried simply transcoding the footage to ProRes422? Your files will expand by a factor or three or four but you will not have these difficulties.

Problem with keyframe effect - at start and end (crop and scale)

I'm having this odd problem with keyframe effects.
Setup:
I have a gif image that I have on video 1 for say 2 minutes.
I have my real video on video 2. It is a person talking.
First I start with my video full size on top of video 1.
Though the motion and cropping keyframe management I slowly reduce the scale and crop my video image so that it is reduced to the lower left bottom of the screen, on top of the gif, which is now revealed.
My problem is at the start and end of the transition from full video to small box on lower left on top of my gif I often get 1-2 frames where the video goes blank and/or I get a bunch of random red bars on black background appearing on the video - Or I get the gif from video 1 without the video 2 at all (it disappears).
I've tried moving my start of end of the transition to skip the bad spots - but these new transition starts or ends not get their own bad spots in the same way. Its only a couple of frames but it's really unacceptable for the finished video.
Note, when I say transition here I don't mean real transition events, but rather the start of effects that are managed with keyframes. My move from start to end of the effect runs for about 4-6 seconds.
Any ideas?

Bill,
Here is more detail and screen captures.
Concept:
I have 3 minutes of video. It contains a person making a speech. During parts of the speech I want to reveal a graphic image that will be discussed. The speech will begin with the speaker full screen. Half way in, the speaker will shrink down to 45% in the lower left corner of the screen. While the animation occurs (the shrink, move and cropping) it will reveal the graphic below. The graphic will take up the full screen with the speaker at 45%.
Technique:
I put the video in Video 2 and the graphic, a GIF image in Video 1. The scene begins with the speaker talking at full screen. After a minute, I animate the move of the speaker using Motion: Scale and Position and Effect: Crop changing Top, Bottom, Left and Right sides. The animation occurs over approximately 8 seconds.
I am manually adding keyframes at the start and end of the animation. I set the ending state of the video image in the end keyframes. The interpolation between these start and end keyframes should be managing the animation.
Problem:
At the beginning and end of the animation – usually 1-3 frames from the start and 1-3 frames from the end, where the change has barely begun or almost ended, I get these problems. On some frames, the video (in Video 2) completely disappears only showing the Video 1 GIF image below. On other frames, the video image turns black with horizontal red bands half way across.
Troublshooting:
I’ve tried deleting all start and end keyframes and moving the start and end earlier or later to see if I can fix this, but the problem continues to show up in these new locations.
I have added a few screen shots.
1:32:15 is the start of the animation change and 1:40:22 is the end of increasing from the mini video speaker to full size (on top of the GIF).
At 1:40:16 the video image completely disappears only showing the GIF below.
At 1:40:17 its back and slowly increases in size through the interpolation until it is full size at 1:40:22.
Let me know if you need anything else.
Thanks!

Problem with windows and my monitor in after effects

HI . before any thing excuse me for speeking english.
i have a problem with windows in after effect in my monitor
my monitor is 15.6 and resolution is 1366*768
for example when i open interpret footage window i can't see that complete and amount of size window dont visible.
Thanks.

Your system doesn't meet the requirements and that is that. AE has required 900 pixel height ever since CS4. Other than changing your screen res or shuffling around windows there is nothing you can do.
