Auto Clip Resize

I'm using 1080p footage in a 720p sequence. I have 'Default scale to frame size' unchecked in preferences. (I unchecked it right after install.) For some reason it's doing it anyway. How can I stop this from happening and how can I reset the ones that are already in the timeline? I'm using Premiere Pro CS6
Thanks, Chip Simons

Thanks, Jim
I could have sworn I unchecked that box before I even created this project but I guess I didn't. I do have a follow up question since we are on the subject. Will I lose any quality by stretching them back out? Even though the Motion tab says they are at 100% I know that they are not so I wouldn't think it would hurt anything to just pull them out to 160% (or whatever true 100% is).
Thanks,Chip

Does auto-enhance resize photos?

I was editing and emailing photos to myself through the photos app and noticed that the max photo size changed. I clicked "edit" then "Auto-enhance" and then "Save". When emailing the photos the "actual size" option is now smaller (800k vs 2 MB) and the resolution is lower. I had not heard about this before and was not aware auto-enhance resized the photos.

Any time you encode, or edit, a jpeg file, which is a type of picture file, it reduces the quality of the picture and to make up for the loss the resolution is lowered

Movie clip resize not working when image is loaded

Hello,
I'm having some strange luck in building an image slide
show. I load the image paths into an array from an XML
page and then step through the array elements w/ forward and
back buttons.
I have an empty image clip on the stage where I create an
empty movie clip inside each time a new image is loaded. I load the
image into the second movie clip like this:
[code]
_root.picsPage_mc.mc_pic_loader.mc_individual_pic_loader.unloadMovie();
_root.picsPage_mc.mc_pic_loader.createEmptyMovieClip(
'mc_individual_pic_loader', 1 );
_root.load_movie_and_stop(
_root.picsPage_mc.mc_pic_loader.mc_individual_pic_loader,
_root.photo_array[_root.photo_index].image,
_root.picsPage_mc.mc_pbar, 'regular_load');
[/code]
The load_movie_and_stop function is as follows:
[code]
function load_movie_and_stop( target_mc:MovieClip,
movie_clip_to_load:String, p_bar:MovieClip, action:String )
mc_loader._width = 0;
mc_slider_bar.mc_drag_pan._x = 0;
if( action != 'simple_load' )
p_bar._visible = true;
p_bar.bar._width = 0;
var mclListener:Object = new Object();
mclListener.onLoadStart = function( target_mc )
if( action != 'simple_load' && action !=
'regular_load' ){ target_mc.stop(); }
if( action == 'load_and_play' ){ target_mc.play(); }
mclListener.onLoadInit = function( target_mc )
_root.resize_movie_clip(target_mc, 160, 120, 250, 190);
if( action == 'load_and_stop' ){ target_mc.stop(); }
mclListener.onLoadProgress = function( target_mc )
if( action != 'simple_load' )
percentLoaded = Math.floor( (
target_mc.getBytesLoaded()/target_mc.getBytesTotal() )*100);
p_bar.bar._xscale = percentLoaded;
p_bar.txt_percent = percentLoaded + "% loaded.";
mclListener.onLoadComplete = function( target_mc ){
p_bar._visible = false; }
var my_mcl:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
my_mcl.addListener(mclListener);
my_mcl.loadClip( movie_clip_to_load, target_mc );
}//___endFunc___
[/code]
After the image is loaded into the movie clip, I then resize
the image to be a specific width.
The image resizing is done w/ this function:
[code]
function resize_movie_clip(clip_loader_name:MovieClip,
max_width:Number, max_height:Number )
orig_width = clip_loader_name._width;
orig_height = clip_loader_name._height;
aspect_ratio = orig_width / orig_height;
if( (orig_width > max_width) || ( orig_height >
max_height ) ) // If either dimension is too big...
if( orig_width > orig_height ) // For wide images...
new_width = max_height;
new_height = new_width / aspect_ratio;
else if( orig_width < orig_height )
new_height = max_height;
new_width = new_height * aspect_ratio;
else if( orig_width == test_height )
new_width = max_width;
new_height = max_width;
else { trace( "Error reading image size."); return false; }
else { new_width = orig_width; new_height = orig_height; }
clip_loader_name._width = Math.round(new_width);
clip_loader_name._height = Math.round(new_height);
[/code]
Now, 98% of the time this works perfectly, but there is some
certain times where the image resizing is completely ignored and
the image gets loaded as it's normal size.
Can anyone see why the image sizing get's ignored in some
instance?
Thanks for any help,
Clem

Found the solution that worked (used ._xscale and ._yscale
instead of ._width and ._height
[code]
function resize_movie_clip(clip_loader_name:MovieClip,
max_width:Number, max_height:Number, center_offset:Number )
if( (clip_loader_name._width > max_width) || (
clip_loader_name._height > max_height ) ) // If either dimension
is too big...
if( clip_loader_name._width > max_width )
_root.picsPage_mc.txt_test = "func if 1";
clip_loader_name._width = max_width;
clip_loader_name._yscale = clip_loader_name._xscale;
if( clip_loader_name._height > max_height )
_root.picsPage_mc.txt_test = "func if 2";
clip_loader_name._height = max_height;
clip_loader_name._xscale = clip_loader_name._yscale;
else { new_width = orig_width; new_height = orig_height; }
[/code]

Is it possible to have a text field have both auto font resizing and rich text format?

I am trying to make a field so I can bold or italicize within, but still have the capability to add as much text as I want with the font size getting small so that it all fits in the field. It seems I can have the auto resize OR the Rich Text, but not both. Is there a way around this?
Thank you.

You can't? Just to give you some context, I work as a graphic designer, I'm creating for the first time an iBook for a client and I have quite a few examples already.
A couple of vague examples:
- Imagine a diagonal animation from the bottom left corner to the top right corner of the page. I could do this with keynote or html, for example. Now imagine you want some text floating at the top left and bottom right corner.
I wont get into details, but the fact the animation is "cutting" through the text is very much relevant to the context.
- A page with a bold white title, a strong photographic lowkey background and some kind of interaction of top of it.
- A page with a keynote widget occupying almost the entire area, and a title in text format (that would superpose with they keynote but not with its graphics)
- etc etc
These are all impossible scenarios.
The actual interaction with text/images and interactive elements is nonexistent.
But I understand now that the interactive bits of the book must be separated from the other content - its context -which is a shame. And I understand it's not a bug, from what you say. The iBA interface shows the book like a PFD export, in a way, as well as the thumbnails at the Table of Contents, were all the text is visible. The actual pages have a different behaviour.
Thank you very much for the fast feedback. I will use the 'Provide iBooks Author Feedback' menu, as suggested.

How do I get clips resized for youtube without extra black borders?

Hi Ya,
I have some concert footage that I edited in FCP (some in 4.3, some in 16.9) that I have montaged together to form a "sampler" of what the act in question have done over the years. I want to put this on youtube, which needs a 320x240 frame size so I created a 320x240 sequence, added my montage to this, resized the clip til I was happy and exported. No matter what setting I use to export, I seem to end up with a box that has black borders round the movie instead of the movie filling the 320x240 frame, except when I DON"T specify 320x240 as an export size, in which case I get a movie that looks ok but it's 576x520! (i'm UK based so the 4.3 footage was this size??)
Any suggestions?
Many Thanks
Gareth

Hi
this had me stumped for a long time, but i think whats happening is that the quicktime movie player window defaults to a bigger size than 320 x 240, so it shows the movie at its correct sizer in a bigger window. if you resize the window the black sidebars go away. the movie properties say the movie is the correct size, so it should be fine. if you embed it in an html page it plays correctly as well.

HDV auto clip

Hi to all,
I am working with 720p HDV fotage shot and captured from a JVC (110?) camera. The captured clips are automaticaly cropped at the begining and the end of every clip resulting in some very short / usless clips. It seems FCP detects the point at which the camera operator presses rec/stop and the subtracts pre-roll time from that. This is my first dance with HDV
1) Is typical of all HDV work flows or just this camera?
2) Is there a way to disable the auto detect (start/stop) function prior to capture? (re-capture)
3) Can I place a handle in front of auto-detected start/stop point on a clip? (ie: DV)
Thank you for your time, Eric

Thank you for your response. I read the article, so in review...
1) the footage shot on the JVC camera forces the start/stop detection.
2) Had the footage been shot with another manufacturers camera I could disable the start/stop detect.
3) Yes I could add handles to the head or tail of a clip with the start/stop detection disabled.
Thanks for your help

Unwanted Clip Resizing

Woking with CS4
OK, so when I watch my clips in the playback monitor everything looks fine. Then I drop them in the timeline. When I play it back in the timeline, the upper right monitor shows that the clips are now zoomed in. I have to manually resize every one so they fit properly in the monitor window. I've made sure that the tab underneath the monitor is set to "FIT". I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Please help, and thank you.

MAIL: auto image resizing

The message viewing window automatically resizes large attached images to fit within the window. I seem to remember that on earlier version, there was a way to turn that off but I couldn't find it any where on the latest Mail version 2.0.7.
Any one knows about this please tell me how to do that. It drives me nuts!
Thanks.

The 'decrease quotes' command doesn't work worth a hoot in Mail
It works for me, so maybe you're trying to use it incorrectly. Are you attepting this on received mail, or a message that you've inserted into a new message window via forwarding?
If you want the features you mentioned, you should download WordService, which will ad a lot of features to your Services menu. And to eliminate the ones you don't need or want from showing up, download Service Scrubber.

Edited Clips resized when trying to make a movie

I've went through my videos and have the clips that I want to keep. When I go back in and add them to a new sequence, they are zoomed in for some reason. So I thought I had some setting wrong. But when I bring a new video clip in that I haven't edited and drag it to the timeline it isn't zoomed in. I have been messing around with this for days, can't see where I've gone wrong. Any help would be great

Please provide
these details to help us help you.

Disabling "auto" clipping masks in layers

Currently on my home mac - if I 'create a new fill or adjusment layer' it automatically selects 'use previous layer to create a clipping mask'
The only way I can stop this is by alt clicking on 'create a new fill or adjusment layer' which brings up the 'New Layer' dialogue box' and unticking the 'use previous layer to create a clipping mask' box. I have to do this everytime which is very annoying
I seem to have set this as the default. How can I set it back to it's normal default of not using the previous layer as a clipping mask (as it used to be and as my work version does as standard)
Thanks

Web Clip resizing

Once I select the portion of the site I would like to view in Dashboard and the widget appears in Dashboard, can I resize that selected area? It seems to only allow me to resize the portion of the site I'd like to view. Is it possible to resize the selected area viewed in the widget? Thanks in advance

I'm pretty sure you can't. I suggested it as a feature, though on the bug report page. Ought to be a snap for them to do, and it'd be super slick. The interface is obvious and expected since other widgets allow resizing (and the other kind of resizing is already done a different way).
I made a widget from the top of woot.com's page, and it's great, but it's about four times too big. I'd love to be able to shrink it down. In fact, I'd like to be able to scale any widget up or down.

Auto Clip

Is there a way to make Final Cut Pro 5.1 automatically make clips like iMovie does while importing based on 'pause/resume, stop/resume' activity of the camcorder? I need the editing power of FCP but am disgusted at how long "log and capture" takes.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Look into CatDV + Live Capture Plus from Squarebox.com
It will do what you want.

Import splitting into hundreds of .3 second clips!

We have a Panasonic PV-D400D, and iMovie's last few versions have erroneously imported all video as tons of little .3 second clips. The way we got around this was to import as one single clip, not using the auto clip thing in iMovie. However, it looks like there is now no preference for that.
Am I out of luck? Is there a setting I'm missing? Anyone with such a camera know if there's a setting on the camera itself that is causing this problem?
Thanks!

Hi
Can't find Your Camera on the Web. So my thoughts:
To get this I would:
• record in LP-mode (90 min on a 60min tape)
• play it back on another Camera
• to a Mac with an exteral hard disk NOT Formatted as Mac OS Extended.
All this would give a non working situation. Changing them to
• SP-mode (60min)
• use same Camera as did the shooting
• import to internal hard disk (formatted Mac OS Extended) with 25Gb free space
would make it as easy as possibly.

Automatically create clipping masks

Hello,
I was watching this amazing video -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebVFXphyJqw
- and I noticed, that flash has a feature, that seems to automatically create clipping masks.
She starts using these at 1:45. She draws blue paths and applies gradients to shapes that use the blue paths but also underlying art.
I haven't figured out a quick way in illustrator to do it like this. (Draw path - divide - livepaint - new fill can produce such results, but thats too complicated for quick shading...)
Also there is a feature right at the beginning, where she erases segments of circular paths. They are exactly cut at the intersection points. Of course there are scissors and snapping in AI, but that method flash seems to offer looks much more convenient.
Maybe those functions are burrowed in some side menus in AI... I mean, I have Flash CS6, but I feel much more comfortable in AI.
If you know these features, especially the auto clipping mask thing, please tell me
-Andrej

Wow, the draw inside mode was also new to me. So much to learn!
It's a pity that it does not create merged clipping groups when having two objects selected simultaneously upon entering drawing inside mode.
I have not figured out, how to use the shapebuilder tool with single paths yet.
But I did try out the Pathfinder's outline operation. It seems to give me the seperated strokes I demanded.
Thanks for your help again Monika.

Attaching an embedded movie clip to an empty one

HI,
I am new to Flash and would like some help about the
following. A have an embeded movie clip in my library that i want
to attach to an empty movie clip I am creating with ActionScript. I
want to fix the size of the empty movie clip, that I will use as a
container to for my embedded movie clip. It turns out that when I
fix the size of the empty movie clip container and I use
attachMovie to load the embedded movie clip to it, the image
doesn't show, I can hear the sound but not the image.
So the question is , if I have a movie clip container of a
different size than the movie clipse I want to load into it, what
do I need to do to make sure the movie clip will fit into the empty
container.
thanks
-malena

Thanks for the answer, but what I would like to do is to have
a FIXED size empty clip on the stage and be able to load new clips
into that empty clip and have the loaded clips resize to fit into
the empty clip.
For example the FLVPlayback component does that
automatically. I can't use the FLVPlayback component because I want
to be able to control which frame number I want to displaly on the
screen, and it looks like I can only have that type of frame level
control wiht a Movie clip component but not with the FLVPlayback
component.
