Camera & Mic Settings by site

Question - In Flash 10.3, if I go into Control Panel in either XP or Win7, and set the Camera & Mic to ALLOW for a specific site, then does that get applied to all Windows user profiles? So for example as different users log into Windows on the same machine and they launch or go to that site, is the microphone already set to "Allow" for them - because I already set it in Control Panel? Or is it still profile specific and are they going to get prompted the first time they go to that site?
So in essence, by allowing a site to use the Mic in the Global Settings in Control Panel, is that global for all users then who log into that machine?

Hi kr00zn,
Pat is (as usual) correct--I checked with a member of the engineering team, and received the following response:
"Yes, currently the setting only applies to the current user account. It does not affect the Cam/Mic setting for all user accounts on the machine. If you want to affect settings for all user accounts, you should use the mms.cfg file."
If you are interested in using the mms.cfg file to affect settings for all accounts on a particular machine, you can find information on how to do that at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_player_admin_guide.html.
Thanks,

My Qosmio is an F10-124. It was running a fully updated version of XP MCE and had not been much trouble apart from a completely new motherboard etc under warranty! It also has 2gig memory and a 160gig HDD which for some reason now is only showing 127gig.
I purchased an upgrade WIN7 package a few weeks ago and installed it, and it runs fine, better I think than XP. Drivers took a while to update but it was plain sailing really.
However I had a niggling feeling that there might be a better BIOS by now. Toshiba's site told me the latest version for this machine is 1.40 whereas it already has version 2.0. I think the site just has no support for these re-boarded machines which have R at the end of the part number. This trips up Tempro until the R is removed. I have tried the only W7 32 BIOS I can find so far, version 2.20, but installation fails, so maybe it's best left alone for now.
Don't know if this is any more than academic but at least I have succeeded running W7. Now, Qosmio Player, that's another story.

Camera mic audio

I have some audio that a boneheaded co-worker of mine shot with the camera mic enabled, instead of the lavalier. Does anybody know of any settings (a preset, perhaps?) in something like Soundtrack Pro or Logic that I can use to fix this? I'm not having too much luck with the general EQ. Also, the bad audio clip is going to used next to a correctly recorded audio clip, so, right now, the difference is extremely noticeable.
Thanks!

I finally ended up EQing it as best I could...I wish there was a preset that was something like "an idiot recorded this...so now this program will fix it"...thanks for the help!

SWFLoader in Air can't access Camera/Mic?

I have a Flex swf file I'm loading into an Air 1.5 app that does a video chat. Flex app standalone in a browser works fine, but when loaded into the Air app by SWFLoader, it can not stream cam/mic. logging shows it successfully connecting streams and running localVideo.publish(name).
Is this a security issue or something that is going make me cringe?
Really need an answer, any help appreciated,
Greg

When loading SWFs inside a Flex/AIR app, you can see restrictions depending on how each SWF was compiled, and what resources it is trying to access.
See these Flex Builder help sys pages, or LiveDocs for more info:

Bridge freezes when applying camera raw settings to large number of files

I have a folder with 32,000 frames from a time-lapse project that I'm doing. I'd like to apply the same camera raw adjustments to all of these files, and so follow one of the two methods below - neither of which are working with such a large set of files:
Method 1:
Select all files, open in camera raw.
Apply changes to the first image
Select all images, then synchronize the changes to all other images.
Unfortunately selecting "Open in Camera Raw..." just leaves bridge to hang. It's using a lot of memory and processor time, so I would assume it's working, but there's no progress bar or similar to indicate that it is.
Method 2:
Open first file in Camera Raw
Apply all changes, and exit camera raw.
Select all files in Bridge, right click on one and select "Develop Settings -> Previous Conversion"
Unfortunately the final step again leaves bridge just thinking. I waited around an hour, closed bridge, but unfortunately when I opened it again there was no sign that it had copied the camera raw settings onto any of the other files. My computer's pretty slow (see below) but it should have written one xmp file in an hour.
Question:
Does anyone have any workarounds other than repeating the process 32 times for 1000 images at a time?

The files are only 2MP each, and I have the same issue when I apply the changes to RAW files and JPG files. The error occurs though before any changes are applied, before the images would need to be recached, as when the error doesn't occur the dialogue box I mentioned pops up asking what to change.
Your specs sound more then enough I would think. Do you have set the option to Write cache to folders when possible and if so could you uncheck that option?
I don't have experience with this kind of numbers but I do dump the Bridge cache manually on a regular base (every new cycle it seems to be more stable so more interval in the periods of dumping cache) but my main folder contains usually around 6 to 7 K of DNG files from 21 MP dSLR. This starts caching without problems but takes a few hours before done.
Can't use the option cache for folder due to a longstanding problem with error message to replace the CacheT file, hence my question about your setting.
Also I have set the option to previews Always HQ and in the prefs have set the option to build monitor size previews.
As said, don't know the large numbers but the 2 MP files are very small and it should be possible for Bridge I would think?
Did you also try to create a new folder and place the files inthere. Or divide them in to three folders for testing?

Can not find folder to load camera raw presets on MAC. I have searched and says to drop in the library/application support/adobe/camera raw/settings folder but I do not have this folder or can no locate it. I get as far as lib/appsupoort/adobe/camera raw

I just made the switch to mac. I am have installed all the new PS6 CC and bridge and I am not trying to add some presets to my ACR but when I search for the folder to place them it is not there. From what I researched it says it should be under camera library/application support/adobe/camera raw/settings but I can only get to library/application support/adobe/ and then there are two different camera raw options I have checked both and there are not settings folder. If anyone can help me please thanks

You want your user library
Mac(user)/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Camera Raw/Settings
In finder click on Go then hold down the Option key and then click on Library

Possible to adjust video camera quality settings?

I realize this is a shot in the dark, but is there any way to adjust the video camera quality settings on a 5th-gen nano? I'm wondering if the poor quality of the video is a result of the hardware or the built-in compression settings.

Hello Matt,
is there any way to adjust the video camera quality settings on a 5th-gen nano?
No. What you see is what you get.
Here are the specs for captured video on your nano.
H.264 VGA video, 640 by 480 pixels, up to 30 frames per second with AAC audio
Not exactly top notch, but still decently quality for a decent price. It's more than likely due to both reasons. This may improve with future generations.

(Glad to see you're still lurking around here, Wyrenut. Your posts have helped me tremendously. And this comes form somebody who has run and internal developer's support group for quite a few years.)
I also started having this problem after getting my TX hooked up through my home network. I had to set up a wireless access point with only WPA security to get around having to change the WPA2 security on all my other equipment. I applied the ESU upgrade, but that didn't seem to help with WPA2 Personal. Previously, I could get at least half of the pages to come up through the open hotspot in the lobby of our building at work, but I haven't tried that since I applied the ESU upgrade this morning.
I can get to the internet through the access point using a laptop, and I can see the IP address of the Palm coming through the access point on the router's admin page, and the DNS addresses of the PC and the Palm are the same. So I think I'm through, but every page I try gets the 'Page not available' message, even if I enter the IP address of the page rather than the URL.
Is there any other method of debugging available to see if the page is really coming back and locking up Blazer, or whether it's really not coming back at all? Or any other suggestions?
Personally, I sort of liked the old Internet Explorer that counted off how many K were coming through as the page was being loaded. At least you could tell something was happening.
Thanks,

Camera raw settings change while rating stars

While I rate my images with stars in Bridge, I can see that the Camera Raw settings are changing the preview image as soon as set the stars in the Content panel are set. Why does the preview changes if the thumbnail is already generated? Shouldn't any newly generated thumbnail contain Camera Raw Default Settings as soon as they are displayed? Can anyone please tell me how to set-up Bridge or Camera Raw Preferences correctly in order to generate from the first time the preview images with my Camara Raw Default Development settings? Thank you for any usefull hint.

This is just a guess, but I would say that is the way it should work.
If you have Bridge set to HQ thumbs the thumbnails will reflect the current edit of the RAW image. Since lables are considered an edit (change of metadata), Bridge would have to rebuild the thumbnail to the current version, even though it does not reflect any visual changes.

How do you clear the Camera RAW settings?

When opening a photo in Bridge, the photo opens in it's original state but then Bridge quickly applies settings to it and it looks darker. How do I stop this from happening? Can I easily turn it off and on? I tried Edit>Apply Camera RAW Settings>Clear Camera Raw Settings but it did nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hi and tanks for your answer
I´ve done it . I ´ve put all the settings to zero (brigthness, contrast , expose, etc..) and I´ve saved it as new CR default values, but the images continue "getting worse" (although not the same situation , now they lose all their "strong", i supose cause the zero values)
In my bridge thumnail i see the image as i taked it, right with the light and the color i want. but in the moment i select with my mouse the image to see it in preview mode, the image "gets worse".

Where do I find the Camera Raw settings file?

I've been running Creative Suite 3 on a MacBook Pro. I just bought a Mac Pro so got my disks off the shelf to install on the new machine. That's when I found I have to deactive the programmes on the laptop in order to install them on the tower. (Which strikes me as outrageously restrictive. How many people work on a tower at home and a laptop for the road?)
Having gone throught the deactivation/activation process, I opened Photoshop to process some NEF files, and then remembered that my Camera Raw settings were somewhere on the laptop - but where ??? I assume there must be a file somewhere, but have not so far been able to find it.
Any ideas gratefully received.
Thanks

By "Camera Raw Settings file", I take it that you are looking for the develop settings for each raw file. These settings can be stored in two ways. The first and most common method is to store them as sidecar *.xmp files in the same directory as the NEFs. The other method is to store them in a centrally located Camera Raw database. One can change these methods via the Edit Preferences menu of either Photoshop or Camera Raw. Further information is here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Photoshop/11.0/WSD94FB319-761D-4e9a-BC8D-24DF7EBC05B4.html
The storage location for this central database as well as the storage locations for other settings are shown in this Adobe link:

Cannot find camera raw settings

i'm trying to install presets and i cannot find camera raw settings
application support > adobe > camera raw = adobe, cameraprofiles, and lensprofiles
please help!

Nobody can know. You have not provided even the most basic system info nor any proper version info about ACR and whatever. Eitehr way, ask in the ACR forum.

Default Camera Raw settings question

For a long time, I did not understand why do photos in Bridge that were shot in RAW appear satureted for a second and then become dull...as I understand, the first thumbnail isn't made from actual Raw with no settings, but the second one is, so it's not as "pretty".
My question is - is there a way to set the default RAW settings so that images shot in RAW would look like the ones shot in JPG? Because i mostly shoot in RAW+JPG and I'd like the RAW duplicates to look as pretty as JPG ones by default. Is the only option manually setting RAW settings and applying it as a default?
Thanks

The short answer is No.
The longer answer is Nearly, it depends.
The full answer is:
The initial image you see is the integrated thumbnail in the raw file, which is created at capture by the camera using its picture settings. This is not the "correct" version of the image (as there is no right or wrong way to convert raw to jpeg, just different ways). It is the version provided by the camera manufacturer using the chosen picture settings. Some may say it's the correct version, some will disagree. I say that, if you have chosen to shoot raw, you must be disagreeing to an extent.
Adobe's default conversion will not look like the camera's conversion. Adobe has its own idea of how your picture should convert, but it sees it only as a starting point. If you'd rather have a different starting point, closer to the camera's version, you can. Adobe provides Camera profiles designed to approximate the different camera picture settings, like Camera Standard, Camera Neutral, Camera Portrait, etc., and you can use those intead. They are nearer, but not exactly. Find them on the Camera Calibration tab in Camera Raw.
You can make these different settings default by opening a new photo in Camera Raw, changing the camera profile, tweaking any basic exposure settings, and then clicking on the little menu icon on the far right, and select Save New Camera Raw Defaults.
But, again, I suggest that you shouldn't be trying to duplicate the jpeg, otherwise why shoot raw in the first place? Just try to get the default how you think it should look.

Manipulating Camera Raw settings with javascript

Is it possible to manipulate the Camera Raw settings with a javascript? I've been looking for info on this and have had no luck finding any.
What I'm doing is multiple conversions from a single RAW file set at different exposures, brightnesses, sharpnesses, etc.
Here are the basic steps:
1. Open RAW file in ACR.
2. Adjust for a baseline image.
3. Open image as an object in Photoshop.
4. Duplicate that object layer and run "edit settings" on this new layer.
5. Make adjustments ***
6. Click OK to apply new settings to this layer.
7. Repeat steps 4-6 on original layer as many times as needed.
I got everything working as I want, but I'd like to be able to automate step 5 for certain file types so that it will set some of the settings for me without going through the dialog to do this. The settings I'd really like to be able to adjust this way are exposure and brightness and if possible, I'd like to set them in relation to the original layer's settings for those parameters.

Here is what I had in mind. Note the document is the same size as the raw file. This will place 5 copies of the raw file in the activeDocument, each with a different exposure.
var rawFile = new File( "~/Desktop/DSC_5396.NEF" );
var xmpFile = new File( "~/Desktop/DSC_5396.xmp" );
var exposures = ['-2.0','-1.0','0.0','1.0','2.0'];
for(var e=0;e<exposures.length;e++){
     setExposure( xmpFile, exposures[e] );
     placeFile( rawFile );
function setExposure( file, exp ){
     file.open('r');
     file.encoding = "UTF8";
     file.lineFeed = "unix";
     file.open("r", "TEXT", "????");
     var xmpStr = file.read();
     file.close();
     loadXMPLibrary();
     var xmp = new XMPMeta( xmpStr );
     xmp.setProperty( XMPConst.NS_CAMERA_RAW, "Exposure", exp );
     file.open('w');
     file.encoding = "UTF8";
     file.lineFeed = "unix";
     file.write( xmp.serialize() );
     file.close();
function placeFile( file) {
    var desc = new ActionDescriptor();
    desc.putPath( charIDToTypeID('null'), file );
    desc.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID('FTcs'), charIDToTypeID('QCSt'), charIDToTypeID('Qcsa') );
        var offsetDesc = new ActionDescriptor();
        offsetDesc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID('Hrzn'), charIDToTypeID('#Pxl'), 0.000000 );
        offsetDesc.putUnitDouble( charIDToTypeID('Vrtc'), charIDToTypeID('#Pxl'), 0.000000 );
    desc.putObject( charIDToTypeID('Ofst'), charIDToTypeID('Ofst'), offsetDesc );
    executeAction( charIDToTypeID('Plc '), desc, DialogModes.NO );
function loadXMPLibrary(){
     if ( !ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript ){
          try{
               ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = new ExternalObject
                                                            ('lib:AdobeXMPScript');
          }catch (e){
               alert( ErrStrs.XMPLIB );
               return false;
     return true;
function unloadXMPLibrary(){
   if( ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript ) {
      try{
         ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript.unload();
         ExternalObject.AdobeXMPScript = undefined;
      }catch (e){
         alert( ErrStrs.XMPLIB );
