Brightness and Contrast

For some reason, the brightness and contrast doesn't work in iPhoto for me anymore. I am using 4.0.3 with Tiger. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas?
Thanks, Bob

Yep - I have and it's actually working now. It seems to be a sporadic problem. I am thinking about Photoshop elements.
Thanks for the reply.

  • Brightness and contrast buttons on monitor is not working

    I have a lenovo 3000H series desktop. Suddenly the brightness and contrast button on the monitor has stopped working. Please help.

    Yes, I did restore it twice plugging it on the computer and using itunes and the hold/sleep/power off button wont still respond.
    No matter how long I push it, it won't do anything so the screen or device won't shut off.
    Everything else is working fine.

  • Control of brightness and contrast of HP Pavilion G4-1310au

    Hello. I just got a new HP Pavilion G4-1310au.  My problem is that it did not have any OS installed and so no system drivers were installed either.   In the box I only got a CD that has HP manual in it and nothing else and the notebook  of course, the power cord, bag, and some printed manual.  I was expecting to see a System Disk CD so I could install the system drivers, but I didn't find one.
    So I installed the OS and then installed the network driver which I downloaded from another computer and also the audio.  My problem is that I cannot find a laucher that would help me control the brightness and contrast of the screen.  I tried FN key plus F3 or F2 keys but it didn't work.
    Anybody can help me how I can control the brightness and contrrast or better yet if there is a Launcher software where  I can control all the features of this notebook? By the way, I don't know how to enable the bluetooth either.
    Any help is much appreciated.

  • Why do the brightness and contrast tools disappear

    I just finished developing a set of photos. When I went to my next set, some of the functionality was missing namely the brightness and contrast tools. I am using lightroom 5. Why is this happening?

    The images where brightness and contrast sliders are available were probably imported into Lightroom in an earlier version (probably Lr3). Back then the adjustment sliders were built around 'Process Version 2010'. When Lr4 was launched it included an updated and significantly more flexible set of adjustments sliders. This new set of adjustments is known as Process Version 2012, and is the current set of adjustments in Lr5. The images you try to edit that don't have access to brightness and contrast were probably first imported into Lr4 or Lr5. You can read more about PV2012 here Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 4.0 Feature Overview The overview also provides information on how to convert back and forth between PV2010 and PV2012.

  • The Best Brightness and contrast for my monitor

    I have an acer monitor AL2016W. I managed to get it too work but the screen is too bright. What is the best brightness and contrast for it? I have a resolution of 1850 x 1250, can I safely change that on my mac mini? Thank you for yuor help.

    If you are using windows 8 - go to the start screen and just start typing Power.
    When you start typing in, "Just Type" kicks in and starts searching for what you are typing, The default is to look for applications, but the power options you need are under settings.
    So Click on Settings, and you'll see power options on the left.
    Click Power Options and once you get to there, you should see a slider on the bottom of the window to change the brightness, I added a screen shot for you.
    good luck

  • Controlling brightness and contrast in DVD Player

    Is it possible to control the brightness and contrast in DVD player?

    It depends on your graphics controller. Select "Show Supported Features" in DVD Player's "Help" menu. If it shows "Video Color" supported, you can choose "Video Color" from the "Windows" menu. Don't forget to click the "On" box at the top-left.

  • How to set brightness and contrast of video please

    Hi, how can I set brightness and contrast of video in OSMF please?
    I tried add filters to MediaContainer and VideoSurface of VideoElement, but doesn't work.

    I think I find the reason, OSMF uses StageVideo other than Video when StageVideo is available. StageVideo doesn't support filters or mask.
    So the answer would be no way unless I switch back to Video.

  • Different look in brightness and contrast in Color as in FCP

    Hello,
    I've got a problem since the last pro applications update. Since then my clips got a different look in brightness and contrast in color as in FCP.
    If I send a clip from FCP to color, it looks more dark with higher contrast. If I send it back to FCP you can see the made changes, but the brightness is higher and contast lower again. And I mean a huge differnce between the both programs.
    Before, it was like identical. So, in the moment, it is difficult to make exact changes and the worklow is not so efficent anymore.
    Has anyone the same problems or an idea to solve the problem?

    That tech note specifically discusses how FCP's assumption about RGB files forces it to handle their gamma differently than "YUV" based file formats.
    Relevant bit:
    Final Cut Pro assumes that QuickTime movies for codecs that support the YUV color space (including DV, DVCPRO 50, and the 8- and 10-bit Uncompressed 4:2:2 codecs) are created with a gamma of 2.2. This is generally true of movies captured from both NTSC and PAL sources. When you eventually output the sequence to video, or render it as a QuickTime movie, the gamma of the output is identical to that of the original, unless you've added color correction filters of your own.
    *However, during playback on your computer's monitor, Final Cut Pro automatically lowers the gamma of a sequence playing in the Canvas to 1.8 for display purposes. This is to approximate the way it will look when displayed on a broadcast monitor. This onscreen compensation does not change the actual gamma of the clips in your sequence.*
    So what's displayed in the Canvas is an approximation of the "correct" gamma and relies on many assumptions about the media that may not be accurate.

  • Camera Raw brightness and contrast preset for art capture?

    I'm capturing oil paintings for reproduction with a D3x tethered to Lightroom 3.  I'm converting though in camera raw.  My camera profile is created using Color Checker Passport software/target which uses a DNG file.  Given that, the profile is build without brightness or contrast adjustments.  My question is, for accurate color, tone and exposure capture should the default ACR presets for brightness and contrast be reset to 0? 
    Thanks!

    Or use the Zero'd setting on import to get no initial settings. However, I thing you'll find doing your own is better.

  • Premiere Not Applying "Brightness and Contrast" on Export

    Hey all, I'm new to the forums. I'm having a problem with exporting from Premiere Pro.
    It seems like Premiere totally ignores the "Brightness and Contrast" video effect. I have a video with increased contrast and increased brightness. It looks good in the viewport, but the exported video still looks flat and washed out, as if it didn't apply the effect. If anything, it seems even more more washed out and less saturated than the source cilp.
    To help find the source of the problem, I also tried adding a blur effect (to see if it was ignoring all video effects), but the blur rendered out fine- brightness and contrast didn't.
    If it helps, I have Premiere Pro CS5.5 running on a Mac. I'm exporting  in H.264. I also made sure to render the footage in Premiere before I exported. Anyone know what's going on?

    EDIT: Okay, it does seem like it's working- I just plugged in extreme values for contrast, and there was definitely a difference. However, Premiere still washes out the video upon exporting. Does this have to do with the H.264 codec, or could it be another export option?

  • Brightness and Contrast Import Defaults

    When I import NEFs from a D200, LR gives it a brightness +50 and contrast +25. The photos look pretty good with that setting, but LR instructions suggests to first adjust exposure, recovery, and blacks before futzing with brightness and contrast. So, 1. why does LR do that in the first place, and 2. would I be better off making a preset that starts brightness and contrast at zero, and first do the ex, rec, and black settings?
    Also, I was taught never to use the brightness and contrast settings in PS.. are the LR settings fundamentally different?
    thanks
    Michael

    Is there a way to change these defaults? For eg. I'd like to have the default shadows=0, default vibrance=10, default sharpening=0, etc.
    I know you can specify a develop preset on import, but I like being able to tell which files are at "default" settings, and which ones I've worked on individually.
    Thanks,

  • Brightness and Contrast Issue on Calibration

    I've started having migraine issues the last few years. On one machine I have, I wanted to create a few different monitor calibration sets, so that I could switch between sets that were for accurate work, and then sets that were lower in brightness and color temp, which would be easier on my head. I'm using 10.5.8 and an external ViewSonic. I just now realized, that the contrast and brightness settings seem to be overridden by the monitor. In other words... Say that you go to calibrate... You start off by manually setting the contrast and brightness, then adjust all the other settings and save the calibration. If you are using that calibration set and manually change the brightness and/or contrast... clicking on any calibration set, will NOT return the brightness and contrast to the settings you had them at, for that saved calibration set. ie: There's basically only one brightness and contrast setting you can have, at any given time, no matter what calibration set you’re running.
    This doesn't seem right. Has it always been like this?

    Hi Dave, see if this might be of use...
    Go to System Preferences > Universal Access and down in the Display: section make sure that the Enhance contrast: slider is all the way to left to Normal, or more to the right for less Contrast.

  • My friend doesn't have to render brightness and contrast, why do I?

    How is everybody doing?
    I am new to Final Cut Pro 7 but I have been working on it for a couple  of Months. A friend of mines has been editing for a couple of years and  he's pretty much teaching me a lot of the basics.
    I have encountered a problem that me nor him can find a solution.
    You see, for some weird reason, with his Final Cut Pro 7, he can add the  filter "Brightness and Contrast" to his clips and doesn't have to  render it at all. However, when I try to do it, I have to render (and my  video is long so rendering is going to take forever).
    I want to know if there is anything that I am missing or anything I need  to change on Final Cut Pro so I don't have to render when using the  filter "Brightness & Contrast".
    Please let me know, thanks!

    Make sure you're not comparing apples to oranges.  Do both his and your Mac have the exact same specs?  System resources has a lot to do with which filters will playback without rendering (in real time) and which won't.  And as MtD indicates, are you both using the same codec for editing?  Some video formats work natively in FCP and won't need much rendering ... formats that don't work natively in FCP will require much more rendering.  Also make sure that clip settings match the Sequence settings exactly.
    Check every aspect of both systems and media; if everything is the same, then you may have a mystery ... but chances are you're simply comparing apples to oranges.
