Thin black line around mask when placed in Final Cut Pro

After upgrading all to the latest version of the Pro suite, I'm getting a thin--pixel-wide-black line around my Motion masks when placed back in Final cut pro. Is anyone else seeing this?

Try this:
Open you media bin (F5) click on the "Media" tab at the top and find the "offending file". Click on the file and go to your Inspector-->Media. Under the "Alpha Type" drop-down menu, select "Premultiplied - Black" (or white or color) and see if that fixes it. I was having a similar issue with a white line appearing and this fixed it.
Good luck.

  • Why & remove: thin black line around new image?

    Hi there.
    PS CS3 (10.0.1)
    Why does PS automatically make a thin black line around any new image and how can I set PS not to do this?
    You can please have a look here:

    I will really appreciate your help.

    Thank you for replying to my question.
    You are 100% right ... I have made the canvas a bit larger and there is no line.
    BUT, why is there a line around the image when viewing in a browser? I dont' want it there and this is the first time I have this problem.
    Thank you for your time & help.

  • "media server application expectly quit" when submitting from final cut pro

    browsing through the list, it seems the problem couldn´t be solved so far.
    doing some systematic testing, the following riddle shows up:
    ... when adding a QT ref movie (or movie) directly to the compressor batch list and submit to the cluster, everything runs fine.
    ... when exporting from final cut pro:
    menu -> export -> using compressor ...
    submitting in compressor using:
    1) Cluster: this computer: everything keeps running fine.
    2) Cluster: MylovelyCluster ....
    the job fails with the message "Failed: HOST [clusternode_name.local] media server application unexpectedly quit"
    since there is 5TB + of data to be compressed, copying files to the render nodes is not an option. all data is on a shared xraid, connected via giganet.
    Any ideas, any hints appreciated !
    regards,
    p.s. Anybody running an XSAN having the same issues?
    G5s, G4s, G3s, macminis, powerbooks   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   xraid

    ... well, the answer is in other topics.
    showstopper explains it patently again and again ...
    thanks from here.
    shortly: when submitting from FCP, every node HAS to have FCP installed and MUST have access to the same relative file path (mounted shared volume). If the volume is not present, the render node will open the reconnect media dialogue and waits for user input.

    Your work will still be there, you just have to go through Updating your older pre 10.1. stuff to the new Library model way of doing things.
    Follow Tom's suggestions to the letter and things should go smoothly.

  • When you uninstall final cut pro does your projects delete too

    When you uninstall final cut pro does your projects delete too

    No, only the app is removed.
    The Events and Projects are completely untouched and ready to use when you reinstall or update FCP X.
    To uninstall simply drag the FCP X application icon to the trash and delete it.

  • When i open final cut pro x  when it starts loding the projects it shows the spining beach ball and is stuck wat can i do?

    when i open final cut pro x  when it starts loding the projects it shows the spining beach ball and is stuck wat can i do?

    Possible  corrupted project or media fies. Here's what I'd suggest.
    First trash preferences. If that doesn't work…
    Move your Final Cut Projects folder into a folder named Hidden Folder. See if FCP then launches. If it doesn't hide your Final Cut Events folder. Once FCP launches successfuly, create a test event and project.
    To track down the problem, successively move load events and projects from hideen to their proper location and open FCP. When and if you get the crash you have hopefully located the problem.
    The easiest way to do this is to purchace Event Manager X ($5).
    Good luck.

  • Problem when HD movie (Final Cut Pro edited) viewed at smaller sizes on youtube

    Does anyone else get occasional lines during motion (not interlacing) and motion jerks with their HD video when it is viewed in anything other than Full Size HD?
    I am having this problem and it's driving me crazy trying to figure out where the problem is. Original footage was shot on an HD JVC Camera 1920 x 1080/50p AVCHD. Final Cut Pro converts it to 29.97 Apple ProRes 422 with Field Dominance: Upper (Odd).
    Please refer to the attached file to see the compression settings I used in MPEG Streamclip. I found that I saw a lot of jumpyness before seting the data rate at 15000 kbps. There is still slight "lag" on panning shots, but watching the converted file on my computer and in Full HD on youtube (at full size) it is acceptable.
    Is this a problem with youtube or with my conversion process? I have heard that AVCHD cameras have caused similar problems for others. Has anyone found a solution?
    Thanks,
    Spark

    Here's an example of a file (.MTS) converted to H264 for youtube then uploaded with horrible panning problems:
    http://youtu.be/hD8UnT_fv1s
    And here's the piece I made which works perfectly fine when fully loaded and played full size in HD mode, but has glitches at any other size/ quality when played:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VHByjcs-n8&list=UUSCZm618F5deYQzcZLiw-vg&index=1 &feature=plcp
    At around 0.51m, 1.20m and 2.08m motion lines/ glitches are most noticeable. Seems to happen mostly during panning/ movement shots.

  • Audio won't follow in- point  when exporting from Final Cut Pro

    I am using Final cut Studio 2 on a Brand new mac pro which is connected to a an AJA IO pro box (not IO HD). If I set an in point on a time-line in Final Cut pro and send it to Compressor, only the video uses the in point. The audio starts from the beginning of the time-line. This is a huge annoyance and something I used all the time on my G5.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Yea that worked. I was mostly trying to debug it for my client today, since they have the same system I do, minus the AJA and I have no problems sending to compressor with or without marks. Is this a "known" bug or is something with the AJA setup?

  • Video quality changes when imported into Final Cut Pro

    I have video files that I have imported from an external hard drive that were transferred from an HD camera. When viewing the footage directly from the hard drive, the quality is great. Once imported into Final Cut Pro, however, there are small "flares" (don't know how else to describe them) that appear for split seconds across the screen. The best way to describe it is if you are watching a television that has an antenna, there will be static or interferance on the image. This is barely noticable but I can't determine what would cause the decline in quality. My video settings are set to DV NTSC 48 kHz and wonder if this is the problem or if anyone knows of something else that I should change prior to importing.

    Thank you so much for your help! I am technically challenged and STRUGGLING to say the least.
    Some files are definitely H.264 and I can convert them to ProRes. I also have clips that are
    DVCPRO HD 1080p25, 1,440 x 1,080 (1,888 x 1,062)
    Linear PCM, 16 bit big-endian signed integer, 2 channels, 48000 Hz
    Current Size: 1,440 × 810 pixels
    Will I need to do anything to those as well?
    Here is the question I'm afraid to ask because I think I know the answer already. Can I simply replace the clips in my sequence with the newly compressed ProRes files or do I have to change all of the video and sequence settings and then start all over?

  • PDF exporting with thin black lines around some images

    Hi there,
    I have spent A LOT of time making a custom SAVE THE DATE card and I cannot find a solution to this problem. When I am working in the document, I do not see thin borders around any of the images but when I export to PDF they show up. I have NO BORDERS selected for all images in the document and cannot figure out why they keep showing up after export. 
    I have attached a screen grab of what the document looks like when I am working on it, and another one of what it looks like after export. I am using Pages 5.2.2 and OS X version 10.9.5
    I need to order these SAVE THE DATES by tomorrow to take advantage of the 60% off! Thanks so much for your help!

    I am seeing this same problem in a family newsletter I've created.  The lines do not show up in Pages, but when I export to pdf (or print to pdf), the lines appear.  When I print the document, no lines appear.
    Here's what the top of the newsletter looks like - the black lines show up on all the pages, and in the beige-covered overlay, crosshatching is visible.   The template I'm using was in existence two years ago, but doesn't seem to exist in Pages anymore.  Would that have anything to do with the lines showing up?
    I also found this link, but can't apply any of the suggested fixes, since they apply to Adobe:  <http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/thin-white-dark-lines-stitching.html>.

  • Video does not display when sending from Final Cut Pro to Motion

    Suddenly, when sending an audio & video sequence to Motion, a new Motion file is created, and all my layers come in properly, but the video does not display.
    The audio plays fine, and Motion clearly know that there are video tracks there, but it does not display them.
    Additionally, when rendering the Motion file back in FCP, it turns in to black video.
    I have previous sequences within the same project that were sent just fine, and are editable properly, but any new ones I try to create just come out black.
    Help, please?

    Do you have Motion mistakenly set to render out with an Alpha channel?
    Double click your Motion clip in the Timeline. Go to Modify > Composite Mode in the menu bar and set the Alpha to "None/Ignore".

  • There is no video preview when using a Final Cut Pro X project as my source.

    When I send my FCPX project to Compressor 4 there is no video preview in the preview window. I have the source selected from the dropdown preview settings but the screen is black with no sound, even though the timecode is correct. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

    If you export (command e) as a QT movie, then bring that into Compressor as the source file, can you preview it?

  • Files don't play smoothly when exporting from Final Cut Pro

    Hello,
    I have this strange problem that's haunting me for weeks (well months now)...
    I've made some videos, shot with a HD-camera (Sony, HDV HDR-FX1E (PAL)), 1080i), and I want to export it to the apple TV.
    The problem is that the videos on the appleTV dont't run smoothly, they don't really stutter, but they do have a problem, like they're missing a frame...
    Now, I don't know what it is, but I tried everything.
    I've tried all different settings in
    - Compression, like progressive, deinterlacing, keeping the interlacing, changing it to lower field, changing the framerate to 24 fps (as I read somewhere in another post as that 25 fps would be the problem).
    - MPEG Streamclip
    - ffMPEG
    - Visualhub
    Well, I even tried it on a PC...
    But all with the same result.
    Then I tried it to convert the to DV (through the camera). But all with the same result.
    So I thought it could be on my footage, but my originals are fine. When playing on my TV they play smoothly, even the edited ones.
    When exporting the same edited files to DVD, the DVD plays fine without a hitch, but you can see a downgrade in quality...
    The standard conversion settings where:
    1280x720 (PAL) @ 25fps, 3 kbs (I started higher, but i downgraded), and then I tried all the above settings...
    I also lowered the dimensions, but that didn't work either.
    Then I dit a few tests with Handbrake and converted a (home-)DVD and, as to my surprise, I had the same problem!
    BUT! The apple TV plays trailers and movies from the store without any problems...
    TV is set to 1080i (Sony). But I also tried 720p, 576i, 576p, all with the same effect...
    On the tv side... The files are not streamed. They are played directly from the hard disk.
    Even though, streamed or directly, the problem stays the same...
    I'm really desperate.
    If there's anyone who could help, thanks in advance!
    Kind regards,

    Been trying something else in the meantime...
    On a Plextor MediaX, the files play fine and perfect, either in MPEG2 HD (ts), or Xvid HD (avi), on the same TV as the appleTV.
    I've encoded them through Xilisofts video-converter (PC) and ffmpeg (Mac).
    But still no luck with appleTV and the h264 encodings... The stuttering there remains
    Could anyone give me the right settings for PAL and HD? Can I use 25fps?
    (Well, the usual settings in Compressor doesn't seem to work, so if anybody has some more advise?)
    Or could there be something wrong with my appleTV?
    My rentals play fine? I don't understand it...
    Well, thanks for your time,
    Regards,
