Animation export not respecting fades

I don't have much, any really, experience with the animation codec, but was told that for things like basic motion, an animation export is what I want. So I did a custom Quicktime Movie export and selected animation. The video is crisp and clear, it looks perfect, almost. I start the short 5:15 video off with a fade in to a Boris 3D Text Highlight, but animation didn't respect that opening fade in. The titles start fully on screen, and the same goes for the end of the titles. The standard export fades the titles evenly, but animation fades the colors out of the text and leaves all tan text that's easily readable then the next frame it's gone. This happens once more at the end when a similar set of titles should fade out.
I've tried changing all sorts of field dominance, first making sure that my sequence and export are the same, then re-rendering the whole video to none as the whole thing is comprised of stills, then exported with no field dominance either, but still no luck. I would LOVE to use one of the Animation exports for the DVD, but without the fades, it looks very unprofessional. Any suggestions to try to preserve the fades, and will I even see a benefit when placing these 7-8GB files onto a regular DVD via iDVD?
Thanks so much,
-Brian

After a significant amount of testing, I've come to the conclusion that caching of some kind is definitely the problem I'm experiencing.
If I create a number of albums, creating new versions, cropping, adjusting, removing items I've decided I don't really want after all, almost every export will export garbage (wrong image content entirely, strangely stretched images that contain only part of the crop area, etc).
But... If I do the same exact thing for a couple hours, quit, restart aperture, and export them all, everything works "as expected".
I have to say I'm looking forward to the next patch/bug-fix release of Aperture....

  • Export Media not respecting bitrate change for H.264

    I am having an etremely odd problem where I can't change the export bitrate for an H.264 video.  Actually, I can change it but then when I export it to adobe media encoder the change is not respected. 
    For example I have a video that I exported at 9 Mbps.  I would like to reduce the file size by encoding at 6 Mbps, so I change the settings and export again however the change is not reflected in adobe media encoder.  It still encodes the video at 9 Mbps?
    I am using Premiere CS4.  Has anyone ever run into this?  Any help is greatly appreciated. 

    Welcome to the forum.
    Are you trying to encode using CBR?  If so, make the bit rate change to the Target bit rate in the VBR settings, then switch to CBR.  That should work for you.

  • InDesign CS5 interactive PDF export not functioning

    Hey guys, I have been starting to work with some interactive designs within InDesign CS5, mainly animations (menu fly out on mouse over, moving object on page load) . However each time I have exported my work as an interactive PDF, nothing functions, it all appears as static images. I have tried viewing in Acrobat XI, Adobe Reader, Safari.. all with the same result.
    I have used the preview function to review that animation is working properly before exporting and every works flawless, it just doesn't export any of this. I have tried editing a new PDF preset and exporting that way. I have tried both "Interactive" and "Interactive for PDF" modes as well, in case that matters. I have had absolutely no luck and hope someone can find something I must have missed? Thanks for the help on this!

    Animations are not supported natively in PDF files... Preview shows you just a Flash/SWF preview, not PDF preview.
    Only way to use animations in PDF files is to create Flash/SWF file which includes animation(s), place that SWF to InDesign and export Interactive PDF after that.
    And it´s just a work-around, not very good one IMO.... I don´t believe you can do animated menus with that technique....

  • Text animation does not play in Firefox (Was:firefox problems)

    Hey everybody, I created an Edge Animate document and it has text animations where the text fades in and out. Now it works fine in IE and Chrome but not FireFox. All the text displays all at once in a jumbled mess. Anyone have an idea what's going on? Because I don't.

  • KEYNOTE: Why change the format of the presentations? not respect the original format!

    Why change the format of the presentations? Keynote not respect the original format!
    This new versionof Keynot (6.1-1769) is very poor:
    is very slow
    missing fonts
    changes the selected letters
    change the formats of the presentations
    Carousel animations missing
    Please correct the defects before releasing a new version. (The previous version was much better).

    I must set the Formats in the CODEC to get the Format that I want to play with! I was trying to complicate too much!
    The correct format class to is RGBFormat.

    Thanks ooo.
    Via qtconfig I can set the GTK theme (as per use GTK settings) and the font.
    However, what I cannot change is the used icon set. Although gconftool-2 -g /desktop/gnome/interface/icon_theme is set to Faenza it is not set for Qt apps.
    I assume this has to do with me running Openbox and somehow missing a required gconf component being launched.
    Is someone successfully running a WM configuration with the correct icon set for Qt apps?

  • First queued animation is not played properly in bonesPlayer

    Folks, could you please tell me what can be causing the very
    first queued animation(without looping) not to be played properly
    in bonesPlayer?
    It looks like the very first frame of it is played but not
    the rest of the animation. What's more interesting is the fact that
    consequent queued _same_ animations are played fine, thus the
    animation itself is not broken obviously. This weird effect also
    doesn't show up when animation is looped.
    I tried to investigate this problem by setting
    #animationStarted, #animationEnded hooks and it turned out that
    when #animationStarted handler is called the local time of the
    first animation(passed to the handler) is not 0 but way further of
    its actual duration(in my case it always around 1735 while
    animation's length is 667). So it just stops right after the
    beginning.
    Of course, I call playNext() before adding my animation to
    the queue and current bones player's playlist is empty for sure.
    I'm using Director MX with animations exported from Maya.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Tablet Wacom has wrong behaviour, not respect alt right mouse in Photoshop CC 2014

    I have set my Wacom Bamboo tablet to send modifier Alt+Right button when I press the button, then I can change size or hardness of the cursor.
    I works in CS6 and CC but not in CC 2014. The bubble "alt" is now displayed but Photoshop not respect the alt button and I cannot change the size of cursor. When I press the alt+right button on mouse, it works.
    When I change mode of tablet from Pen to Mouse, it works but I cannot map the cursor to main display - this workaround is not applicable for me :-(
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    I'm having the same issue. Scroll wheel works fine in all Adobe products besides Photoshop. I've tried reinstalling Photoshop, plugging in the mouse to a different USB port, reinstalling the mouse driver, and restarting my computer multiple times. This bug makes Photoshop practically useless, as everything takes about twice as long to get done.
    I really hope we get a fix for this soon. So far CC has been a huge disappointment, filled with small, productivity-destroying bugs like this one.

  • NavBarByRelationshipItem: Does not respect ViewId

    Hi experts,
    From an opportunity I would like to show activities in the Navigation bar to the left. Thats no problem. But changing the view from the associated view to a custom view - does not work.
    I tried to fill in the Optional attribute "ViewId" with the ID for the view in question, but dyn crm still shows the associated view.
    Microsoft actually address this problem in rollup10, I'm on rollup18. So it should work.
    This is the snippet from my customization.xml file
    <NavBarByRelationshipItem RelationshipName="Opportunity_ActivityPointers" Id="navActivities" Show="true" Sequence="10000" ViewId="{987239E3-8E9C-E411-9580-D485640E8203}" Area="Info">
      <Titles>
        <Title LCID="1030" Text="Aktiviteter" />
      </Titles>
    </NavBarByRelationshipItem>
    Any help would be appreciated
    Henrik
    --- Best regards Henrik Skydtsgaard

    Found a solution. If you use the standard Id, in this case "navActivities", then ViewId is not respected. Choose another Id and it works.

  • Safari - Animated GIF not Animating Issue

    I am frequenting site and have noticed animated gifs not animating properly on this page. The site is http://www.woot.com
    Problem Detail:
    There are two "whirly lights" on each side of a progress bar under the item currently for sale. The left light starts to animate while the page is loading but stops while the right light continues its animation.
    This particular site may usually only uses these images every once in a while so if no one checks this in the next couple days the images will no longer be there. I created a web archive the site which I could send if this page does go away. The issue does not happen in Firefox or Internet Explorer.

    Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions
    I get the same effect as you in Safari. Loaded with no problem in Firefox. Page does have coding errors, which can lead to inaccuracies in how the page is rendered. Safari is much more strict about correct coding than Firefox, adhering to web standards set out by Web Standards Project.

  • Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?

    Why are animated gifs not displaying animations in the preview?
    My coworkers and I are not seeing a animation in the preview pane in Adobe Bridge CS6 even when clicking the play button in the preview window. However, we do see a graphic of the first frame and one person sees 1 frame when clicking play and one other frame and then the animation stops, however, that is not the complete animation.
    I'm using Windows 7 32 bit
    My coworkers are using a mac.
    One coworker has apple OS Mountain Lion with a Intel Quad-Core Xeon – 64 bit system.
    Is this fixable or in the works as a patch? Otherwise we have to open these docs in a browser in order to view them properly.

    I've just come to the realization that some animated gifs do play fine and others do not. A coworker of mine suggests that if it's an animation made via Adobe Photoshop, it'll work in bridge but will not if it's made using something else.

  • [SOLVED] Xfce composite settings are not respected

    I have come across a problem with the Xfce composite manager. I enable this primarily to have conky draw transparently on the desktop wallpaper, but then found shadows and transparency did not cause much more impact on performance after enabling composite effects in the first place.
    But now I'm experiencing that some settings in the Tweaks settings menu are not respected. For instance, I've enabled transparency both when moving and resizing windows, but they only turn transparent when moving them. Also, I've enabled transparency for notifications, which to my understanding includes the desktop right-click menu, but they are opaque. Anybody else experience this? I've tried turning composite effects off, logging out and back in and turning them on again. No luck there. Also, if you should know where these settings are stored (text file somewhere/Xconf...) I'd be happy to inspect them
    Thank you!

    Now it does for me as well. The reason I thought the menu was a part of it was because it became transparent when I enabled notification transparency the first time but this behaviour went away after a logoff-login I think.
    The big problem I'm struggeling with now is still the fact that xfwm does not respect the settings as found in Xfconf / Settings -> Tweaks. The shadows on the borders won't go away no matter what I do; however and I'm able to turn off the resize/move transparency in-session. When I log out and back in again, the behaviour reverts, although the settings as I set them remain unchanged =_=
    If anything, does anybody know how to return all of xfwm's settings to the default, so I can start over? All I really need compositing for is transparent conky anyways....
    EDIT: Okey, it seems this has something to do with the xfwm theme I use :s after switching to other themes in the list I am suddenly in control of the composite effects again... Does this mean that the theme I use stores info on what composite effects it should use??
