Automatically add clear frames between keyframes?

I have several movie symbols with a different bitmap in each keyframe. Since they move too fast to match the other symbols, I want to put clear frames between each keyframe. So far I have just been clicking each keyframe and hitting F5 several times but I thought there might be a better option.
Is there a way to automatically add a number of frames between each keyframe?
Thanks

I think the OP doesn't mean empty keyframes (s)he just means to add frames. On my machine, at least, F5 just adds more frames, not an empty keyframe. So the flickering shouldn't be a concern here....
If you are just getting into code tweening I would suggest looking into the TweenLite/Max classes from Green Sock instead of the built in ones.
And Ned is correct, JSFL can automate many mundane tasks that you might perform in the authoring environment. I've only dabbled with it a bit, but it could easily do what you are asking. There might even already be some script out there that adds a certain number for frames at each keyframe in a layer or a timeline or some such.

  • Seeking frames between keyframes

    For several years I've used ffmpeg to generate (local) mp4
    for football coaching videos. I'm trying to move it all to the web
    so want to generate use flash/h264 for this purpose. Currently I'm
    using apple's quicktime plugin as it is clever enough to allow one
    to 'backstep' one frame at a time by (I assume) generating
    intermediate a frame if necessary for display. Can anyone point me
    to information to get me started on this? Thanks.

  • I need to double my frames between my keyframes....

    I am working in the timeline and I have a shape tween keyframe at every 200 frames running for about 8000 frames (its an abstract geometric artwork)
    I want to double the frames so there are 400 frames between each keyframe. I can go in and do it manually but does anyone know if there is a faster option?
    Thanks.

    you can halve your framerate.  that will have the about the same effect as doubling the frames but will effect all your timelines so may not be satisfactory.
    try it and see.  it's easy to undo and quick to do/undo.

  • How to apply saturation filter between keyframes only?

    Hi,
    I have a bunch of old home videos that look bleached, I mean flat colours. It's the camera that causes this (it's a cheap camera). So I found a filter in Premiere that I can use to adjust saturation:
    * Fast Color Corrector
    Now I can only apply this filter to the entire clip. However, some parts of the clip need different settings than others, so I tried to use key frames but that's not going to fly with this filter. It makes sense because it's called "Fast Color Corrector". However, I haven't found a filter that allows me to adjust saturation for individual parts of the clip between key frames.
    Where should I look?
    Thanks.

    If the other two suggestions do not help you, rather than apply between Keyframes, you can also cut the Clip (Razor Tool) and apply where needed. If you need the "ramping" effect of the Fast Color Corrector, then just add a Cross-Dissolve. This works for other non-Keyframable Effects in many cases.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    [Edit] You might want to Alt-click the Video to unlink it from your Audio, when using the Razor Tool. No sense in cutting your Audio too - in a very few instances, this can cause little "pops" in the Audio.

  • I need to add a gap between songs when burning a CD

    I just upgraded to iTunes 9.2.0.61, hoping that it would solve my problem. I need to add (yes, ADD) a gap between songs. I'm burning a CD to be used during a performance, and there's a reason that I need 10 seconds of silence after the first song. I believe in previous versions I could add a gap between songs...using Get Info, then Options, but now it just gives me a start and end time for songs. How can I add a 10 second gap between the first two songs?

    Add a track consisting of 10 seconds of silence. I made you one in crystal clear MP3 stereo. You can get it here: http://rcpt.yousendit.com/907964971/c4d2c9e22762a8911f4e431a1e2a4e2c
    Just put it in the library and then add it to your playlist wherever you need it.
    iTunes lets you add a gap between songs, but only up to 5 seconds, and it has to be the same every time.

  • How do I add a transition between every clip in Premiere Elements 11?

    Greetings -
    Folks, I'm looking for a feature that even the cheesy old Windows Movie Maker used to have.  I'm trying to figure out how to get Premiere Elements 11 to add a transition between every clip via some shortcut/quick means.  I find it obnoxious and inefficient that I need to manually drag a transition between every clip.  If I import 200 short clips that I took with my point and shoot camera, it'll take me over an hour alone just to put the transitions in place.
    Is there any way to select a transition and have Premiere Elements add it between every clip?  I've stumbled on the fact that you can click a transition and make it the "Default" but have not been able to figure out what that does for me.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thank you.

  • Dent/dip in motion graph between keyframes

    I've noticed that ever since upgrading to AE7, I occasionally get this strange dip/dent in the line/curve between keyframes that I can't seem to get rid of.
    Commonly, it occurs like this:
    I set a keyframe at the first frame, then move the layer/item and set another keyframe at (say) frame 30. Everything's fine... Then I move to (say) frame 40, move the item, and set a keyframe. When I look at the graph, rather than the usual line going from one keyframe to the other, I have a kink/dent in the line going from keyframe 2 and 3, as if a keyframe of a different value was place in between the two keyframes.
    I've tried toggling linear/bezier interpolation, and even removed and redid each of the keyframes, yet nothing gets rid of the kink.
    Has anyone else experienced this, and does anyone know why this is happening? This has prevented me from finishing even simple animations, because there doesn't seem to be any way to fix it.
    I never had this problem with previous versions, so I'm really puzzled by what is causing this. Just 3 keyframes, and it does it... nothing else complex or unusual.

    I think what you're talking about is bounce or rebound. If you change the spatial interpolation from bezier or auto bezier to linear the bounce will go away. You can't change spatial interpolation directly in the timeline graph editor. You change it by going to Keyframe Interpolation by right clicking (or Control + click on a one button mouse mac) on your selected keyframes in the timeline window and picking Keyframe Interpolation or by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl/Cmnd + Alt/Option + K, or by going to Animation>Keyframe Interpolation from the menu bar.
    While the graph editor will give you an indication of the position of the layer, you can only manipulate the time values in the Timeline Window. In the Composition window, you can only adjust the spatial (position, rotation) property. If you look closely at the keyframes in the Composition window before you change spatial interpolation, you'll see bezier handles on the path. They are really difficult to see on a straight path, but they are there. Changing Spatial Interpolation to linear will get rid of these handles, but you can also do it manually by holding down the G key while hovering close to the motion path and when the cursor changes to an open arrow you grab the path bezier handle and drag it to the keyframe.
    Hope this helps. It's a rather common problem that's easily solved once you realize that you're adjusting the when in the timeline and the where in the comp window.

  • How to add key frames in CC

    I'm just trying out CC and can hardly get past get-go :-(
    I surfed for help for 45 minutes and found nothing useful.
    Sadly after telling people people for at least 15 years that Adobe has great products but the worst help files of probably any major company, it's still true.
    Adobe help still assumes that you know the answer that your looking for :-(  Whenever I surf for help I try anything before a URL marked Adobe.
    Anyway that's why I"m here ;-)
    I'm staring at the CC timeline and I wan't to fade in both picture and sound; so how do I add key frames?
    Thanks,
    Michael

    @Shooternz
    Firstly, I really do appreciate your help and thanks to it I now know how to add the key frames.
    But to give you an example of Adobe type help and to show that I'm not just being a grouch ;-)
    I followed your link which took me to - Premiere Pro / Adding, navigating, and setting keyframes.
    Great!
    But does the article start with "How to add key frames"? 
    No it doesn't :-(
    The article is presented in this order,
    View keyframes and graphs
    Move the current-time indicator to a keyframe
    Add, select, and delete keyframes
    Modify keyframe values
    Why?
    Why doesn't it start with Add, select, and delete keyframes which would be logical?
    Thanks to you I also managed to find http://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/premiere_pro_reference.pdf

  • FCPX, Phantom floating between keyframes.

    Hi,
    I have been a fan on FCPX but I have to say now I am using it to make simple animations on a tight deadline it is REALLY stressing me out. Ok so there is a glitch I cannot fix and here is an example.
    (it does not matter fs this is on Text, and image or anything else)
    So I may want to make a bit of text shoot out of frame to the right, this is what happens (in this example say the text is 104 frames long)
    Key frame A (at say frame 0) possition full left of screen
    Key frame B (at say frame 100)possition still at full left of screen nothing has changed.
    Key rame C ( at frame 104) possition off screen all the way to the right.
    Ok now here is where the problem is and please note for this to happen I dont even have to make keyframe C..... So now between keyframes A&B the text will float the the right and then float back to the left but there are no keyframes or anything else telling it to move.
    WHAT IS GOING ON???
    This has been happing everytime I try to animate anything and I have no answers, put two key frames down with no changes and the element will just float around between those keyframes for no  reason.
    Any help apreciateds.
    Thank
    Robin

    I was seeing this yesterday. Its to do with how FCPX is interpolating the data between the two keyframes. In this case it thinks it wants to ease in and out from the two values, even though the values are the same, this is why you get the spurious motion between the two keyframes. In Motion you would simply bring uo the keyframe editor and set the interpoltion to linear. I couldnt find a way to do this in FCPX.
    The way round it in this case was to get rid of the last keyframe so it stopped all the stupid unwatned movement. Then blade the clip in half and then animate the second clip as needed. Drove me crazy for a bit.

  • Weird movement between keyframes? (not boomerang)

    I'm using CS3 and I'm getting some wierd movement occasionally between keyframes in "position" and it's not the boomerang effect. The frames aren't identical, but the z position SHOULD be the same and not change (the x and/or y do). I've looked at every angle I can find and used the graph editor and can't figure it out. In the preview screen I can't see the movement in the path but when I use the graph editor and use the value view I can see the odd random jerky movement in the z line. It's almost like a wiggle (which I've never actually used) and not a smooth continuous motion like the boomerang effect. :-/
    I can't find anything on google about it, although I might just not know the write phrasing. Does anyone know what might be causing this??? It's driving me crazy!

    Without screenshots, system info and details about your project nobody can know. That said, quite often AE's crappy graph editor will draw jittery lines when zoomed in due to how it iteratively quantizes the curve drawing and there is actually nothing going on. So unless this is an issue with final rendering, I wouldn't go crazy over it.

  • Getting blank frames between clips

    I have various clips on the timeline snapped right up against each other yet I'm still gettting a black frame between adjacent clips. There's no keyframes or opacity adjsutments on any of the clips so I don't know what's causing this.
    This clips themselves are edited so that there's nothing extra on the beginning or end of them that would cause this issue. Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Ray

    Just a thought ... I had something similar happened when I did not have snapping enabled but positioned a clip perfectly on the end of a preceding clip.  I thought everything would be fine, but it was not.  My clue was that a dissolve was not taking when I tried to apply it.  I looked closely, but the two clips seemed perfectly matched.  Then I tried something new ... After making sure snapping was enabled, I then moved the clip to the right enough to let the snapping bring it back together with the preceding clip.  To my surprise it solved the problem for me. The dissolve then "took".   I really don't like having to find "work-arounds" for things like this, but some bugs on little things like this can be expected on a 1.0 release.  In the meantime, overall, I am very happy with X and am getting a lot of projects done much faster than before.  Hope this helps.

  • OBIEE 11g: how to automate browser clearing cache

    Hi,
    We upgraded OBIEE 10g to 11g the implementation includes EBS SSO ( which works in 10g).
    the SSO functions OK meaning when we login from ERP Bussiness selection responsibilities to the OBIEE dashboard page we can access it and the login succeed.
    The thing is that when we change the responsibility to another responsibility the Application role of the user does not updated and the old role ( the user get again the first role that was assigned in the first login ) meaning the role was not changed with the new responsibility.
    I think that browser cache find OBIEE session and connect to the session without call /* valueof(NQ_SESSION.ACF) */ APP_SESSION.validate_icx_session('valueof(NQ_SESSION.ICX_SESSION_COOKIE)')
    So, to automate browser clearing cache ?
    Thank you

    Thank you Veeresh,
    I think this situation is due to a feature of Weblogic
    "+The browser caches user credentials and frequently re-sends them to the server automatically. This can give the appearance that WebLogic Server sessions are not being destroyed after logout or timeout. Depending on the browser, the credentials can be cached just for the current browser session, or across browser sessions.+"
    [http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/web.1111/e13711/thin_client.htm#i1033402].
    I understand the advantage that helps to not make the login process more unnecessary. But I have to disable the feature, otherwise the end-user will not be able to change permission on BI /ERP responsibility and will have totally close the browser. The question is how to disable it (Weblogic feature) ?
    Thank you,
    Ark

  • How can I bypass Automatically Add to iTunes?

    I have a large CD collection (>3000) that I've ripped to iTunes in ALAC format; I only listen to CD or better quality music, so I don't have any mp3 or AAC files in my iTunes library. I keep my music on an external hard drive. I recently bought a larger external hard drive and moved all of my music to that drive. For some reason, iTunes chose to put all of my music in a folder called "Automatically Add to iTunes". This was fine, except that I could no longer see the contents of the hard drive; however, I did know that the files were there, becasue of the disc space that they consumed.
    Today, I ripped two new CDs to the hard drive through iTunes and I noticed that iTunes placed the music folders for those CDs outside of the "Automatically Add to iTunes". I decded to drag the new folders into the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder. When I did so, all of the previous music disappeared and I cannot recover it. Fortunately, I have a copy of Sentuni, so I'll be able to put the music back on the hard drive from my iPods, but this process will require several hours. In addition, ripping my CD collection to iTunes required a lot of time, so I'm not pleased with the "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder feature. Is there a way to disable this feature, so that I can simply put my music on my external drive and be able to see that the folders are there.
    I've been a devoted Apple customer for almost a decade, so I won't get too upset over this issue, but I wish that your developers would have addressed this issue during the development stage. Thanks for your attention to this problem.
    Best,
    Heath

    You "disable" it by not putting anything into it. If you don't want to use it, don't use it.
    If you want to manually manage, do not put anything into this folder.
    Go to iTunes prefs > Advanced and uncheck Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library.

    You wouldn't have to do Spotlight searches anyway.
    The files are in /Music/Artist/Album folderin the location shown in iTunes prefs > Advanced - iTunes media folder location.
    Also, in iTunes, you can select a song, right click - Show in Finder.
