Button video previews.  Help!

I am currently working on a DVD project that requires a single video preview pane that shows video based on the focus state of a button.
For example if my Menu has 8 buttons, when 1 button is focused the preview window shows an associated clip. The idea is that when the focus state moves to button2, the preview pane will show alternate clips for button2.
Is this possible in Encore CS3, and can anyone provide information or links that could help me accomplish this goal.

Auto-activate works by activating the menu button as soon as it is selected.
So on the first menu, the first video clip is visible in the button, and the link for that button is set to the timeline that is supposed to play.
If the user navigates to the second button, then it is automatically activated and the user is taken to a duplicate menu of the first, only this time video 2 is playing in the thumbnail. If the user presses Enter on the remote, then timeline 2 plays. If the user navigates to button 3 or back to button 1, then the auto-activate feature takes them to the appropriate duplicate menu and the process is repeated.
This technique involves lots of menus, lots of complex linking and many opportunities for error. And even if you get it right, the DVD won't work correctly (and the illusion will be spoiled) on a software DVD player. When the user hovers the mouse cursor over the button on a software DVD player, that gesture is insufficient to trigger the auto-activate feature, so the menu won't change to its duplicate.
If you have background audio and/or video in the menus, then be aware that the video and audio will start over when the menus change. Again, this will spoil the illusion on *any* DVD player.

  • FCPX 10.0.3: no video preview, crash

    Hi all,
    I have just updated FCPX 10.0.2  to 10.0.3 and it is a disaster.
    The video preview is not working anymore: when i try to view one video from my events and pass the mouse over one, i hear the video sound, the time progressing but nothing appears in the video preview. If i try to play it (using the play button), FCPX hangs. I have to kill it.
    It is the same when i edit a project: no video preview at all. It is very strange.
    I tried a new project, import new videos, trash the prefs, reinstall FCPX from scratch with no events no projects, even make the lion combo 10.7.3 update (I updated lion the day before)...
    My FCPX is useless. Do you have any advice that may help me?
    Is it possible to roll back to 10.0.2 version via the mac app store?
    My config; MBP Mid2009 15" (GPU 9600MGT).
    Regards,
    Chris.

    ANYONE???
    FWIW, I seem to be having similar issues. Used 10.0.3 for the first time earlier today (under Snow Leopard, on an 8-core Mac Pro now with 24GB of RAM). Constantly losing video -- audio plays fine. Never seemed to have this problem in 10.0.2.  (Lots of other problems, mind you -- just not this one.)
    Found I can usually get video back by opening Playback Prefs and making a change (like switching between "use proxy media" and "use original/optimized"), then waiting 2-3 minutes while the orange bar which has now appeared over the ENTIRE timeline -- even though NO changes have been made to the timeline whatsoever -- slowly goes away.
    One of the triggers for losing the video in my case seems to be letting the Timeline play through till past the end. And I say "past" the end, because there's now suddenly a weird 2-3 minute void after the final clip of video. No audio, no "gap clips", just a big stretch of nothing. I can't figure out how to get rid of it, and the fade out I'd applied long ago to the last video clip no longer works. When the playhead reaches that transition (or nears the end of the last video clip, even with the transition removed) the video just cuts to black. The audio then ends normally while the playhead just keeps going into this mysterious blank emptiness for almost 3 minutes -- at least that's how much extra black I get when I do an Export of the Project.
    Naturally I've tried re-doing the end transition; and have of course made sure there is no media of any kind down at the end of timeline which might be causing this strange empty section. Even tried carefully selecting all the real clips on the Timeline and Copy/Pasting them into a whole new project. No difference. The gap at the end just reappears.
    (Meantime, as others have reported, I also experienced loss of parameters on several simple titles in Projects created in 10.0.2 and updated/imported into 10.0.3. Likewise for the irrational re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-rendering. Have not yet had time to test any of this on a newly-created 10.0.3 project, but I really do look forward to the day when the bulk of my work in FCP-X might actually involve  editing, with the time spent in trouble-shooting and unpaid beta-testing perhaps reduced to just a few hours a week. A crazy idea, I know -- but I can still dream.)

  • Video preview during capture CS3

    Video preview during capture is not working even though settings are at preview video and audio during capture.
    The work around seems to be to go ahead record anyway (red button) then it works after I paste the captured audio onto the timeline.
    When pasting it to the timeline the video appears. The video appears during subsequent captures. It seems like a bug in CS3. This was not a problem with PP 1.5
    Thanks

    these details will help us help you.

  • Weird video preview problem... frustrating!

    Hi, I wonder if anyone else has had this problem... ?
    I had a project that was working fine, but now I cannot watch a video preview by pressing enter or space. The timeline renders the preview then does nothing, just sits there. The play button in the program monitor changes to the stop symbol, just like it does when the video preview plays normally, but no video or audio is playing...
    Please help!

  • No more audio or video preview in column view?

    weird one... on my powerbook (g4) i suddenly have no ability to play/preview audio or video file in column view in the finder. works fine on my desktop machine with the same os and such...? highlighting a file just gives its name and dates and such, no ability to preview.
    using 10.4.8 and QT 7.1.3. tried updating prebinding (and other normal quickfixes). think i might need to reinstall quicktime?

    well, yes i tried all the basic quick fixes. (plus diskwarrior and applejack, etc.)
    i thought i might find it in some of the preferences of finder or quicktime but no go.
    the weirder thing is that if you highlight an audio or video file in the column view, while it gives no audio or video preview, if you click on the "get more info" button (or command-i) there will be the audio or video preview.

  • How to tell whether video preview is working?

    An app shows video preview with code essentially the same as in
    the MSDN document:
    async void ShowPreview(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    if (mediaCaptureMgr == null)
    // Using Windows.Media.Capture.MediaCapture APIs
    // to stream from webcam
    mediaCaptureMgr = new MediaCapture();
    await mediaCaptureMgr.InitializeAsync();
    myCaptureElement.Source = mediaCaptureMgr;
    await mediaCaptureMgr.StartPreviewAsync();
    It works most of the time. However, sometimes the video does not show. When this happens, myCaptureElement.ActualWidth and myCaptureElement.ActualHeight still return the correct values. This probably means at least something is working. In this case, how can
    the code tell what my eyes can see - the video is not showing?
    Hong

    Hi Hong,
    Based on my knowledge, your problem may related to the dispose of the MediaCapture object. Forget to dispose it when app suspends will result in a negative user experience for your app.
    About your question, I’ve not seen such property in MediaCapture class, so it’s recommend to create a Boolean that indicate whether the app is currently previewing video. You need to maintain this object when start or stop preview. You can find more information
    from this page.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/xaml/hh868171.aspx. See Step 5 section.

  • Video Preview not Working in CS6

    Before AE CS6, I was using AE CS 5.5 on my MacBook Pro (model 8,3)  and I could always go to AE Preferences:Video Preview and choose my additional monitor for previewing. I was previewing my Stereo 3d comps perfectly on my 3D hdtv through a HDMI to Mini Display Port cable.
    I now have a Mac Pro and AE CS6 and in that preference, the "Output Device" dropdown only lists Firewire and Computer Monitor Only. With my old setup, I could choose my TV and everything was great. But this new setup won't allow me to see or choose my TV.
    Please help! Has anyone else had this problem? Has something in AE CS6 changed for external monitors? I can't tell if it is CS6 or the fact that I have a new Mac Pro and it's video card might be different...

    That's a great lead. I realized that Final Cut Cut Studio 6 was on my laptop before but it is not on my new Mac Pro. FC Studio 6 includes a bunch of codecs as I recall. So I went to install it on my new Mac Pro and I got an error message that said my Mac cant install Power PC architecture (or something like that) and wouldnt let me install it. Any Idea how I can get those codecs without installing FC Pro 6?
    PS: I tried AE CS6 on my TV and it worked like a charm. There were lots more option in the Video Preview Preference.

  • Camera video preview - Random crashes and green screens

    Hello everyone,
    I am currently working on a Windows Phone 8.1 app and I need to preview video from the phone's back camera. For quite some time I've been struggling with random crashes and green screens. When these green screens appear, all camera apps become affected and
    the device needs to be restarted. Occasionally the phone freezes and only recovers after battery removal. I test the app on my Lumia 620.
    After some web search, I found references to the same problem by many users/developers of different apps. I'm really frustrated as I've tried many possible solutions with no avail.
    Here is part of my code:
    //in App.xaml.cs:
    MediaCaptureInitializationSettings settings;
    public static MediaCapture captureMgr;
    public static bool UnableToInitializeCamera = false;
    public async Task InitializeVideoCapture()

    else

    _messageDialog.Commands.Add(new UICommand("OK"));

    captureMgr.SetPreviewRotation(VideoRotation.Clockwise90Degrees);

    Any help towards a solution will be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    I will also advice that you start by following the
    Windows Store app sample.
    Is this a Windows Phone app?
    The crash/green screen only manifests itself when I suspend my app and switch to the default camera app (could be any other camera app perhaps). It happens roughly 1 out of 8 times. That's why I posted the suspension and resuming handlers, which I wrote
    according to the msdn instructions.
    I found
    this page with a sample that demonstrates the MediaCapture API for Windows Phone. Some developers have reported problems similar as mine. Has Microsoft dealt with this issue?
    I've spent quite a few weeks trying to investigate this problem, without actually knowing if it is my code that needs to be debugged. That's why I'm asking if other developers are facing similar problems.
    Thank you
    Edit: It seems that the crash/green screen can appear when suspending/switching to any app (regardless if it uses the camera or not). Also, all works fine when the app is running on the debugger.

  • No video Preview During Capture

    Here is the scoop:
    Adobe Premeire CS5
    Windows 7 64bit
    Canon XL2
    Capturing DV NOT HDV
    Canon standard device control as there is no preset listed for the XL2
    Video and audio actually captures fine. I can hear audio during capture but cannot see any video.
    I know there is no video preview when capturing HDV but I am capturing DV.
    Again this is CS5 NOT 5.5 so .dll fix is not an option
    Thanks in advance.

    FIXED!
    Heres how it went:
    Went to Device Manager and let windows look for an updated driver for my Graphics Card (Radeon HD 4200). Windows said the most current driver was installed. It was NOT the most current driver. I went out to ATI and got the most current driver, installed, reboot and OH JOY! I get video in the capture window during preview AND during capture (of DV)!
    I also let windows (device manager) look for updated drivers for sound and it said the driver was the most current. Again, it was not. so the moral of the story is...Don't trust Device Manager on current driver versions.
    Hope this will help some folks out there.
    Side Note*
    Most of us spend hours on forums looking for answers/fixes to particular problems. Most replies I see are either in the vein of "I have that problem too" or " try this, it worked in this OTHER version or try this OTHER software" etc. If you dont have an answer/fix for the problem, dont post.
    ON the flip side of that, when posting a problem you want an answer to, Give all the pertinent information in your initial question. " Premiere crashes when I plug up my camera" does NOT suffice! What version of Premiere, what camera, what OS, What kind of connection, etc.

  • Cell background colors are not showing in preview - help? - DW4

    Hi,
    I created a horizontal table for my menu bar, and gave each cell a different color by creating a separate class for each with background image - image is a block of color created in Photoshop. In design mode they look they way I want, but in preview (Safari) the colors don't show up at all - the whole area is gray, and all I see is the text for each cell. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? Alternatively, is there a better way I can set this up to have different colors for each button?
    Thank you!

    Here is the HTML code, and the CSS code for the menu bar follows:

  • An't see itunes store video previews

    I can't see any video previews in itunes even though I hear the audio (either in the artwork window or the itunes store window). Anyone able to help? Thanks!

    I could not find processor speed requirements listed anywhere.
    For future reference, they're listed on the iTunes download page:

    Note that there are two sections, one for the basic specs and one that says "additional video requirements", the second being the one that applies to videos from the iTunes Store.

  • Video preview box not working

    The video preview box is blank and does not work with downloaded videos.  Tried deleting com.apple.iMovie8.plist and running disk Utility to repair disk permissions, but did not work.
    Thanks for any suggested fixes.

    richardj15,
    Try restarting your Mac and seeing if that resolves the issue. If that doesn't work, go to the menu bar and choose Apple > Software Update... . There may be an important iMovie update you've missed.
    Hope this helps,

    How can I change my video preview render file preferences?  I'd like to render my timeline previews in Pro Res, but that setting in my Sequence Settings dialaog box is grayed out.  I'm on a Mac and I do have Final Cut installed on my iMac.
    The Preview File Format box shows I-Frame only MPEG and it's grayed out...
    thanks

    It may be rebuilding the sequence, but I don't think it's re-rendering the files if I have the "Use preview" box checked.  The video has color correction (Magic Bullet) applied to almost all the clips.  It has titles on many of the clips.  All I know, is that one sequence that has pro res preview files being used takes MUCH LESS time than the same sequence that doesn't use preview files, exported to Pro Res.  Both files end up the same size after export, both look the same but one renders in 1/2 the time of it's duration while the other takes 5 times its duration...
    I have hit and miss success with the Use Preview button.  Some times, my exports are super fast, others (such as one I'm waiting for as I write this) are ridiculous.  I have a 3-minute sequence, entirely rendered to ProRes previews.  Export time is 25 minutes, whether Use Previews is checked on or off.  Apparently, Pr is re-rendering the entire sequence.  25 minutes is about how long it took to Render all effects in the Work Area (set to the entire Sequence) before I Exported/Make Movie.  I shouldn't have bothered rendering.
