4k resolution computer

i have bought a 4k resolution computer. unfortunatly,now i have a serious problem with the resolution. all my adobe sc6 producds are presented in a very small resolution. i am using windows 8. even when a edjust the resolution, the display of the adobe softwares is terably small. eny suggestions?

There is nothing you can do. CS6 does not support high-DPI displays. You will have to sign up for CC if that's important to you.

Playing dvds created in IDVD on computer vs TV

When I create a project in Photo to Movie, export it, burn it in IDVD it looks fine on TV, but the quality is very low when the DVD is played on my computer.
How can I get my DVD movie to look decent on my computer as well as the TV?
Thanks in advance for help.
Lynn

The reason for this has to do with the quality of standard definition TV vs. your high resolution computer screen. SDTV is 640 x 480 which will look ok on a high resolution monitor if you make the window small enough. However, if you try to watch 640 x 480 recordings in full screen mode on your computer it's gonna look pretty bad depending on how good your computer screen is. The nicer your computer screen, the worse it will probably look. The only way to fix this is to record in a higher resolution format like HDTV which will take more time and space and you might not even be able to take advantage of that on a standard definition TV.

WMV's ok, but burned DVD's are poor

If I create a slide show and preview it, the quality is poor. If I create a WMV and play it with Windows Media Player, the quality is good. However, if I burn a DVD of the slide show via Premiere Elements the quality is poor. Any thoughts as to why the preview and the DVD are poor, but the WMV is fine?

What resolution is your WMV?
Are you watching your DVD full screen on a high resolution computer display?
DVD resolution is 720x480 (NTSC) 720x576(PAL) so if you watch it full screen on, say a 1920 x 1200 display your player software is going to be blowing up the image and introducing pixelation. Watch it in your player at 100% (i.e. actual resolution) and see if that looks any better.
Note also that Premiere Elements has its own Adobe community forum where you can get lots of very specific help for getting the best output from your slide show.

Burn cd or dvd

Im using vista, and pse5. can anyone tell me how i can put selected photos to a cd or dvd. I dont really want a slide show and want it to play on other computers and dvd players.

>how i can put selected photos to a cd or dvd.
Since you said you do not want a slide show - then writing
b JPEG
photo files to a
b CD
disc will play on other people's computers and it will play on
b some
TV DVD players.
To create such as disc, I would
- first make an Organizer collection and establish the order (by drag and drop) that I wished the photos to display
- select all photos in that collection, do a File > Export, choose the convert to JPEG at a lower resoluiton and the Base Name function. Then choose to write the result of the Export to a new folder on your hard drive and use your CD burning software to burn that folder to a CD.
For the "lower resolution", I tend to choose 1024x768 as a good compromise if I do not know the screen resolution of my recipients. However, if you know that the recipients have high resolution computer monitors then I would probably choose 1600x1200. In theory, you could write out full resolution jpegs for viewing on computers, but the TV DVD players may not be able to handle full resolution files.

Quality of slideshow on dvd poor!

hi, i use idvd to prepare a slideshow of my pictures, taken with a 8 megapix camera.
when the project on idvd is finished and playbacked it looks great, but once burned on a dvd and then played in a dvd player (pal format) the foto's have lost a lot of quality.
is there a way round this problem?

Jean,
You need to read Preparing images for DVD slideshows at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/17.html
Images on our present-day DVDs are roughly VGA resolution (about 0.3 Mpixel).
Your DVD will look much better on a 'normal' TV set (that's the resolution our DVDs are designed for) than on a much higher resolution computer monitor (or HD TV set).

Slides in slideshow are fuzzy

When I view my slides in Organizer, they are sharp. When I assemble the same slides into a slideshow, the images are fuzzy and indistinct. What am I doing wrong?

The Video CD format that Photoshop Elements uses to burn a slide show to a CD disc in a video format is low resolution. It is the characteristic of that format that it is low resolution. This has been true for Photoshop Elements 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 as well as the predecessor Photoshop Album 1 and 2. You can not fix this.
Especially if you plan to play back your slide show on a large size TV screen or a high resolution computer monitor: you need to use a different output format and in many cases you must choose additional or different software to make your slide show.
There are a few possibilities if you have only Photoshop Elements; however, many people will either not have the necessary hardware or will wish to share with others by sending them a disc to play on the recipients TV. Therefore, many people can not choose these options.
1 -- If you will play back only on a computer, you can investigate using the PSE slide show Output command to make a WMV file output at a higher resolution.
2 -- If you have a Media Center computer connected to a TV or an HDMI connection from computer to TV, you may be able to play a similar WMV output file on your TV.
On the subject of other software :
1 -- Adobe offers Premiere Elements (which is basically video software) for making TV playable slide shows burned to a DVD disc (so you must have a DVD burner hardware also).
2 -- Many people have instead chosen to use ProShow Gold, which does have multiple output formats that are higher resolution and therefore can produce higher quality images on computer monitors and large screen TVs.

Video Encoding for DVD

I've been struggling to get more videos on a DVD. Since I'm not an expert on this. Most of my vides are about an hour long and are mostly PowerPoint slides and screen capture of programming demonstrations.
I just keep wondering why DVDs I get to watch TV shows can have 4-6 hours of media when I can barely get two.
Any help would be appreciated.
David

Hi David,
Now we're making some progress, thank you for sharing more info. As a CC user, you are able to download and use Encore CS6. Adobe has stopped further development of Encore so there is no CC version, but you are welcome to use CS6. Here's some instructions - http://www.streamingmedia.com/Producer/Articles/Editorial/Featured-Articles/RIP-Adobe-Enco re%3B-and-How-to-Install-and-Use-Encore-CS6-with-Adobe-Premiere-Pro-CC-93119.aspx
There are some issues with your encoding settings. To begin, the Source resolution is not a standard video resolution, which would be for instance 1920x1080, 1280x720, or 720x480. Nor is it even a computer screen resolution. How did you determine the Sequence setting in Premiere to start the project? Is that the resolution of your stills or screen-recordings? I went through this myself some years ago when tasked with creating a training video, so I understand how confusing it can get! This will affect the final quality if the downscale proportions come out weird. Note that DVD is SD and what looked nice and crisp on the high-resolution computer display will look muddy on DVD, but quality loss can be minimized with good workflow practices.
Next issue, you are encoding to .mp4, when in fact DVD requires MPEG-2 for DVD. So any other format you encode to will just need to be transcoded (re-encoded) in your DVD software again. More quality loss. Also, source is 30fps but Output is 24fps.
In AME, for FORMAT, please choose "MPEG-2 DVD", and then preset "NTSC Widescreen Progressive". That should be the best bet, and using 29.97 frame rate. Looks like the program is 58 minutes, so you ought to be fine with CBR encoding at 7 or 8 setting. Touch nothing else in the encoder besides bitrate. The export should result in an .m2v video clip, and on PC the audio would be .wav, for Mac might be .aac, not sure what they use there. In any case, Encore would convert audio to Dolby. I don't know how iDVD works, sorry.
Looking at the filenames you are using, I would avoid putting periods in the name, as the file extension typically follows the period, such as .jpg, .mov, .m4p etc, this can confuse the software sometimes. Use underscores or spaces instead, such as _.
Good luck with all this
Jeff

Using FCE to improve an iPhoto slide show exported DV file

Hello everyone
I was looking for a quick good way to create a slide show easily, without manually adding various transitions, panning etc....
Well, iPhoto makes a great slide show, fast n easy music and all.
I've exported a Slide Show as a 'Large Sized DV File'.
Only problem, as everyone knows, the iPhoto Slide Shows look great on a high resolution computer screen, but when using the exported DV file on a DVD, it's not as good.
I have found however, that re-importing it into FCE, rendering it, and re-exporting it, produces better results when this DV File is used on the DVD.
Anyone have any comments about this?
Thanx
Mike

Lightroom images do not look the same when opened in PSCS5

Hi,
I am using LR 3 and PS CS5, but have an annoying problem which I don't know how to fix. Basically, when I look at an image fit in window inside LR 3, it looks real well as far as contrast and saturation and hue... when I choose Edit In Photoshop CS5, the file opens in PS but the contrast and saturation and even hue are slightly off. Why?
Thanks,
Juan

Juan, note that in Develop Lightroom does not use all of the available raw data at once to give you a preview. It does this as otherwise, the program would be unusably slow. Every move of a slider would have to result in a complete rerendering of the data at full resolution and then downscale the image to screen resolution. Even on the very fastest machines out there this still takes about a second which would make everything glacial especially on normal computers. So in zoomed out views, it simply takes a subset of the raw data at lower resolution and uses that to render. This can subtly affect saturation in cases where there is a lot of fine color detail because there is no averaging going on to arrive at the lower res image. When you zoom in to 1:1, Lightroom simply renders only the small subset of the image that you see in your window. Because this is only a small subset, this is again very fast, but is now done at the full resolution. In Develop, you will only in 1:1 see Lightroom apply noise reduction and sharpening which can also affect apparent saturation at zoomed out levels. This will certainly remain an issue until we are a few generations further on Moore's curve. However at that point the resolution of cameras will have increased by the exact same amount making the problem remain.
Now consider what happens when you go to Photoshop. Lightroom (or ACR when you use "edit in Photoshop") renders the image from the raw into usually a 16-bit prophotoRGB tiff. This is then opened in Photoshop. Photoshop does NOT know how to deal with raw data. It needs a fully rendered RGB image which is supplied either by ACR or Lightroom. Now, since you have a fully rendered image, scaling down is very easy. However, you no longer have the freedom to reinterpret the raw data. The model used in Photoshop is very different from Lightroom and therefore different restrictions apply.
In Lightroom's Library views, a prerendered jpeg is used for the display. This means that in Library view, the image is scaled down from a fully rendered image and should show a desaturation with respect to Develop when you have lots of fine color detail. Note that neither Lightroom's Library preview and Photoshop's scaled down preview are actually accurate. Both scale in a gamma corrected space, but only for display. To compound this, Lightroom scales down using a different algorithm than Photoshop (which uses several mechanisms based on the zoom level - i.e. whether it is divisible by two). It is simply impossible to highly accurately display a high resolution image on a very low resolution computer display. You always have to deal with scaling, for which there exists no most correct method. They all have issues (certainly Photoshop's silly method does).
Lastly, many people that see subtle (or even extreme) differences between Photoshop and Lightroom actually have a problem with their monitor profile. Make sure to recalibrate your monitor and when you do, make sure that the calibration software generates a v2 profile (most profiling software has this option in the advanced setup). Lightroom treats v4 LUT monitor profiles differently than Photoshop. This difference will be gone in a v2 matrix profile.

Exported logo pixelated - help!

Hello,
I am new to illustrator, I am trying to make an indesign logo display better on the web. I have worked out how to convert an indesign file into a illustrator, I made the file the correct pixels and then exported it for 72 resoution but it is pixelated? I thought indesign was vector based? I would be so grateful if someone could let me know what I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
Kristina

Regarding DPI, that is a term which is only relevant for print. If you create an image in Adobe Photoshop 9" X 6" in size at 72 pixels per inch (or "DPI") it will print out on paper at that size and resolution. On a normal letter sized sheet of paper that 9" X 6" X 72ppi image might look a little coarse. At 72 pixels per inch it's only 648 pixels across by 432 pixels tall. If the same graphic is created at 150 pixels per inch it's going to look quite a bit sharper when printed on paper. It's still the same 9" X 6" printed size, but at 150ppi it has 1350 X 900 pixels. That's how "DPI" and resolution works in print.
DPI really doesn't mean anything for graphics that will be shown on computer screens, mobile phone screens, tablets, HDTV sets or even LED-based "jumbotron" signs. They all have fixed pixel grids and a raster-based graphic is going to map to them pixel for pixel regardless of any DPI setting that was applied to it. If you have a 1920 X 1080 resolution computer screen, a raster based graphic 648 X 432 pixels in size is going to occupy that amount of pixels on a HD resolution monitor regardless of whether it was saved at 72 DPI, 150 DPI or even 2000 DPI. The DPI setting makes no difference.
I work with customers helping them create artwork to either show on a LED-based electronic variable message center sign they just purchased or working with them on creating digital billboard ads. The DPI concept comes up frequently. It's difficult to get them to understand the importance of the pixel dimensions of their graphics and assets and the pixel dimensions of the LED sign or monitor where the ad will be displayed.
Regarding SVG, all of the new web browsers support SVG natively. Even the past couple versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer have built in support for SVG. Old Windows XP based PCs running Internet Explorer 8 (which lacked SVG support) are disappearing fast. In the mobile space most new phone models support SVG with their "stock" web browsers. I frequently visit https://html5test.com/ for feature comparisons with a variety of web browsers on different devices. SVG support is far better than it used to be. IMHO, SVG support is widespread enough now to use it without all sorts of browser fall-back hacks. User interfaces on web sites created in SVG will be able to scale up or down across the extreme size and pixel count differences of many displays, be it a small mobile phone display or a 5K resolution 27" iMac screen.

Muse continuously crashing upon import of Edge elements.

It will let me import the Edge Animate item, however as soon as I try to manipulate it (i.e. Right click, so that I can "Send to Back"); Muse freezes and shuts down.
This is the 3rd element within this project that has done this. I've had a couple others that have finally slipped through (Have since deleted them, as they were just tests).
The instability is killing me!
I'm on Windows 7, using both Muse 2014 and Edge 2014.
Am I overlooking something?
I've tried renaming, re-publishing, etc etc.
Thank you!

Muse has a lot of room for improvement, but it is a very different application than Dreamweaver. The two are virtually opposites of each other in terms of philosophy.
Honestly, there is no "perfect" web design or web development application. I have a couple friends who still think Notepad is the best web site editor.
I expect Muse will eventually incorporate at least some responsive design capability. It would at least be nice for it to have some of the same functions as Edge Reflow, specifically the "breakpoint" features, along with some "liquid" layout functions. I have a feeling though that other features, like some of the scrolling effects functions, would be altered or broken under such an approach. Designers might be stuck with an either or choice over what visual tricks they'll have with a responsive approach versus others they'll have available to them in a fixed layout approach. Muse allows designers to create separate mobile and tablet layout versions of a web site design. I think they need to allow custom sizes to that, particularly to address large, high resolution computer monitors. Even responsive designs don't work very well on those things. Just about any web design looks either pretty empty or very pixelated on a 15 megapixel iMac monitor. We need more than just the 2x HiDPI setting (such as 1.5x and 3x). Ultimately we're going to be stuck designing numerous versions of a web page to accommodate all the extreme differences in screen size/resolution as well as horizontal/vertical orientation. The computer and electronics industry seems to have no clue about settling on a consistent standard. They can't or won't even try to find a way to get phone users to hold their devices horizontally. It might be a good way to reduce the amount of horrible, ugly, stupid vertical video infecting the web right now.

8K iMac - Will we need a 400% UI Tweak? ;-)

This was posted as a rumour on PetaPixel, taken from an LG website page that has since been taken down.
http://petapixel.com/2015/04/06/lg-website-refers-to-an-8k-apple-imac-that-doesnt-official ly-exist-yet/
I have no idea how Photoshop Retina support works, and if would cope with a 7680×4320 display (taken from Wikipedia), but it seems reasonable that such displays would also become available for Windows, so I guess that means more headaches for the Photoshop development team. I wonder how much the 98inch 8K display planed for the next Winter Olympics would cost?
I'm also trying to get my head round why would we need 8k resolution computer monitors? A 33Mp camera would fill the screen viewed at actual pixel size. So to zoom in for detailed editing, you have to pixelate the image. It sounds like madness to me.

I'm not at all sure how useful these high resolution displays are. Certainly, it looks good. But that is in fact not what I need - I don't use the monitor to impress anyone, least of all myself, I use it to reveal potential problems in the file.
I know pixel-peeping has a bad reputation. But I do it nevertheless, because it's the only way to be sure you got rid of all artifacts, and know that the file can be reproduced safely in any context. People might crop it and blow up portions, what do I know.
In short - I want to see the pixels, every single one of them. And not quadrupled or octupled or hexadecimupled.

I just bought a Samsung S22B310B computer monitor and hooked up to my Mac Mini. I have my mac set to the 1920X1080 resolution but the entire screen (21.5") is not filled. It looks like non HD channels do on an HD TV. Used regular hook up not DVI.

Just bought Samsung S22B310B computer monitor and hooked it up to my mac mini. I have my mac set to the 1920X1080 resolution but the entire screen (21.5") is not filled. How do fill the screen? it fills the screen on other resolution settings. I have it hooked up regularly and not to the DVI hook up. I'm not a computer savvy person please help!

That monitor supports both (digital) DVI and (analog) VGA connections, so you should not need a converter or use a different adapter.
You should use the Apple Supplied HDMI to DVI Adapter and a (digital) DVI cable to the monitor.

What are the best sequence presets and settings to use in FCE for the best resolution with the least amount on strain on computer?

Hello!
Can someone please help me figure out the best settings to use in order to obtain the best resolution in FCE4 for a television show that is going to be sent out on full size Sony DVcam tapes, with 4:3 aspect ration and audio output at 48kHz? I am currently working with mixed media sources in Final Cut Express, and I am wondering what the best settings (presets and preferences) are, in order to provide the HIGHEST resolution possible, while putting the least amount of strain on my computer system?
I am importing mini DV-standard definition footage and still photos (from Canon Rebel camera, HD CMOS Canon camcorder that records in 1440x1080 at 48 kHz, and cell phone photos). For voiceovers I use the tools in FCE.
I use Voltaic (which I use thanks to recommendations from Apple discussion boards, love it!) to convert the footage from the HD CMOS-Canon HD VIXIA (HG 20) camera, and then I am using print to video to output onto Sony DVcam tapes (full size). This is for delivery for a television network that broadcasts in Standard Definition, so I need to produce the highest resolution and best quality possible that also puts the least amount of stress on my computer system.
If anyone has any recommendations, help, or sources that can help me answer this question I would be greatly appreciative.
Thank you!

This is happening because your video clip properties do not match your sequence settings. This is always a problem when you try to insert video from multiple camcorders/cameras (that use different video codecs, frame sizes & rates) in a single sequence.
It will help a lot if you provide more specifics - what FCE easy setup did you use to create your sequence? For your DV footage, are you using standard 4:3 DV or anamorphic 16:9 DV clips?
If you plan to export to standard def (DV/DVCAM) and are mixing DV from a miniDV camcorder, stills, cell phone images and AVCHD then I would suggest that you use the DV NTSC easy setup for your sequence. Use MPEG Streamclip or similar utility to convert your non-DV video (your AVCHD video) to QuickTime/Apple DV-DVCPRO NTSC. Then all your video will match your sequence settings. Yes, you will have to crop the AVCHD footage to 4:3 and you can do that in MPEG Streamclip.

I just set up a new computer running Windows 8.1. When I go to my icloud photostream, the pictures are in PNG format NOT JPG. When I open and upload photos from the photostream, the resolution is so low that the image quality is terrible. Help?!?

Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.
