Can I export Encore menu to photoshop to edit?

I understand that I can create DVD menu in photoshop & import to Encore.
But, is it possible to export the Encore menu (which is shipped with Encore) to Photoshop to edit (& then import to Encore again)?

Also, you can Rt-click on the Menu in the Menu Editing Panel, and choose Edit in Photoshop.
If you do not have that, then go to your Control Panel>Folder Options, and check that the File Type, .PSD, is allocated to Photoshop. If not, reset this. Many programs will "steal" file affinities.
Good luck,

  • Editing Encore Menu in Photoshop Weirdness

    I have a menu in Encore CS5 and I edit it in Photoshop.  However, when it is brought back into Encore, the layers that I edit show up as black.  It is freaking awful.  I have lost a lot of work several times.  What could be the cause of this?
    Thanks!

    Thanks guys.  I have also seen the issue where Encore is not updated and it takes a few more saves in photoshop.
    What I am seeing is that when I go to the updated version in Encore some of the layers go black (or gray as I am seeing this minute).
    Here is an image of the photoshop file: http://99.4.78.197/ps.png
    At first, it shows up correctly in Encore:
    http://99.4.78.197/encore1.png
    But as soon as I change the End Action (either setting it initially or changing it) it becomes like this:
    http://99.4.78.197/encore2.png
    In this case it became gray, usually it is black.  To confuse things further, sometimes this happens without changing the links and affects all the layers named '(%) thumbnail'.
    My best guess is that there is some weird caching issue with the temp file and previous files but the inner workings are opaque to me.
    Thanks again for all your help thus far......

  • Can you export a SWF in photoshop CS5 or CS6?

    I have a client that has provided me SWF files that swear were exported from Photoshop, I know that this could be done in earlier versions. if so then how can this be done in CS5 or CS6. I have access to both.

    To my knowledge, the ability to export as .swf was removed after CS3. Do you know what version of Photoshop your client was using?
    Here are some past threads regarding this topic:

  • Workflow for Creating Encore Menu in Photoshop

    This question deals with working between Encore and Photoshop CS5... I hope this is the proper Forum to post. I'll post in the Photoshop Forum as well...
    I'm creating a DVD menu from scratch in Photoshop CS5 to be used in authoring a DVD in Encore.  I originally created a new Photoshop Document using the "Film/Video Preset" for NTSC DV Widescreen... which is 720x480 at 72ppi.   There is also the "Pixel Aspect Ratio Correction" setting which Photoshop warns is "used only for preview" . 
    My confusion comes from trying to design all the elements of my menu at this 720x480/ 72ppi  Film/Video Preset. The image is too small to work with an looks pixelated as hell.  SO... should I be working with a larger, higher-res image for design ... and THEN Free Transform the high-res image  to a new Photoshop document created with the Film/Video Preset?  And if so... should the "Pixel Aspect Ration Correction" be turned ON or OFF when I Free-Transform the image to the document? 
    I'm trying to get everything right in terms of settings so this menu will work properly in Encore... thanks in advance for all positive input....

    I could swear I responded to your thread at Cow, but I see I only thought it and did not do it!
    I suggest you put an Encore library template into a project and use "edit in photoshop" to see how that works.
    PAR correction is on for me, and I think that is the default. That is logical, since standard monitor uses square pixels.
    I think you are better off keeping the menu at the DVD resolution you are going to use. I don't find a problem working at that resolution.
    Keep in mind that ppi is meaningless in video work. It is all about the pixels and par.

  • How do I export photos from Photos.app to edit in Photoshop?

    I used to regularly use iPhoto to organize my photos (loved Events) and then would export my favorites to Photoshop for editing purposes (and to make the images smaller so that they were more web compatible for a blog). It was a right click or a drag and drop (into the photoshop navigation bar icon) away - but now neither of these options work. Thank you!

    How to access iPhoto images for use in Photoshop
    1. In the Finder, navigate to Users > [user name} > Pictures > iPhoto Library. 
    2. Control-click the iPhoto Library file and choose Show Package Contents.
    3. A Finder window opens that shows the contents. The Masters folder (or called Originals folder) contains all of the photographs that are in iPhoto. 
    Photoshop cannot access this folder, but if you make a duplicate of the folder, the dupe will be accessible -- so:
    4. Control-click the folder named Masters (or Originals) and choose Duplicate. 
    5, Drag the duplicate folder which is named "Masters copy" or “Originals copy” from the iPhoto Library Finder window to the Desktop.
    6. Open images in Photoshop from file on desktop.
    7  Rename the folder and move it elsewhere (probably to the Pictures folder), if desired.

  • How do I export a menu created in Premiere Pro CS5 to Adobe Encore CS5?

    Hey everyone,
    First time in here.  Trying some new things in CS5.  Anyway, I created a working DVD menu in Photoshop and brought it into Premiere to lay in some video and music.  The video is an inset that moves from left to right and sits atop the background created in Photoshop.  The file looks great in Premier and now I'm wanting to know how I can export this file so that it is a working menu in Encore and is the first play item for my completed DVD.  Can this be done?  Looking forward to the answers.
    GD

    There are some very good Encore tutorials for making motion and video menus on www.lynda.com that you might find helpful.  If I understand what you are trying to do though, I don't think there is a direct method to accomplish what you want.
    Let me ask you first, does the video inset that is moving across the screen have to continually be moving, or can you live with it moving from point A to point B at the start, then stop and become a normal menu with the video inset stationary?

  • How can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac?

    how can i export a 24bit avi file from photoshop for mac? i have a client that specificly needs the files to be avi and in 24bit what are the settings that i need to use to export the video using photoshop on a mac?

    Hello,
      To make a 24-bit AVI file in Photoshop, go to File>Export>Render Video. Then, under File Options, choose AVI from the Quicktime Export drop-down menu. Click the Settings button. Click the Settings button in the AVI Settings window. Change Compression to None, and then choose "Millions of Colors" from the Depth drop-down under Compression.
      The Millions of Colors option is for 24-bit video (8-bit R+G+B channels, 8x3=24). Millions of Colors+ is for 32-bit video (24-bit video plus an 8-bit alpha channel).

  • Change Menu in Photoshop does not update correctly in Encore CS4

    Hi there,
    I've read some threads that there seems to be a problem with saving/updating psd menus in encore that have been changed/edited in photoshop. I heard three saves was the magic number.
    Well, I've saved over a dozen times, and I can't seem to get the change to come through to encore. to make it even more confusing, some of the changes leak through, but not all of them.
    I have this Chapter's menu and I wanted to edit the highlight of a selected chapter - and so I changed it to a red bar with a outer glow in fx in PS.
    This is what it looks like in PS.
    I go into encore - saved probably a dozen times, (and yes, with small changes like showing/hiding layers to actually save) and waited for over an hour to come through, and when I go to Encore it did ask me if I wanted to overwrite the file from PS - and clicked yes.
    Well, I go under the preview in encore to preview the DVD and this is what it looks like:
    That shows up blue now but with no Outer glow on it. The weird thing is that one of the chapters (2nd to right one in the bottom) - that one has turned red, but doesn't show the glow either - just shows up like the one that shows blue on top except that it's red.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Stan,
    I do not do a Save As - I always hit ctrl + S to save it.
    If I do it incorrectly, then how else should I be doing it?
    Giorgio,
       "I just would add that sometimes I see some little "discrepancies" between the files created in Photoshop and what I see in Encore, but this is just an Encore PREVIEW matter, nothing else."
    I thought of that too and so I built to a DVD folder on my computer and it was the same way there - as far as the color of the highlights go.
    What I did was double click on the layer thumbnail to bring up the 'Pick a solid color' box, and then the sliders on the right, I moved them all the way to the top, and then click on the top right hand corner, but not all the way in the corner, just in the general top right hand side. I wasn't so particular that I had each color code exactly the same because it was close enough for me to just have it up there in that side - you can't really tell the difference in the colors at that point anyway - at least not without holding them side by side.
    Last night I double checked that everything was saved (Ctrl S) and then I shut everything down, including the computer, and this morning when I fired it up again - opened EN first with the project, right click 'edit menu in PS' and now in PS I see that it still has all those bars red (but don't show that way in the Preview in EN) but all the outer glow fx were disabled....
    Now I'm still not quite sure what was meant by this: "Have the highlights you created the same color?
    If not, you had to use (=1) (=2) (=3) keys before the layer name to display different colors in Photoshop application."
    I understand you to mean the filename "(=1) highlight" numbers would have to be changed, right? Why is that? How come I can't just go into PS and set the color as I want - even if they are all different?
    Ok, I just went into PS and went through all the highlights and copy&paste the color # code to make sure they were all exactly the same on each one, then I also went into the glow fx on each one and did a copy&paste there (slightly diff color then the thumbnail one) to make sure they were all the same as well.
    Save 3 times - go into EN and no warning message, but a blink which I took meant it updated, and then I went into Preview, and there you have it - they were all red!
    BUT there was no glow to them.
    I went back into PS and on each one, all the fx were disabled.
    Why does it do that?
    How can I get fx to carry through into Encore?
    Please excuse my ignorance, I'm expecting to learn a lot!
    Thanks everyone!

  • Change Background in Menu Creation  Encore CS4 and Photoshop

    I am creating a menu using Encore and Photoshop. I Used the Encore Libray to create a blank background and also created a series of buttons adusting them in Photoshop CS4. However, when I try to change the background with a new jpg or psd file I open the picture in Photoshop but not as the new background layer  I am trying to achieve. Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong? 

    Dear Bill,
    Thank you for your prompt reply. However, I don't think I am explaining my problem correctly so if you have the patience I am sending you this little "Jing" movie which will show you my problem

    Subject: Change Background in Menu Creation  Encore CS4 and Photoshop
    There should be no problem when adding the image of your choice, with Edit in Photoshop.
    When you choose Edit in Photoshop, several things happen:
    1.) a TMP PSD for that Menu is created.
    2.) links are created between En and PS
    3.) PS is launched, and that TMP PSD is then Opened in PS.
    When one has edited that TMP PSD in PS, they must do a Save to allow those links back to En*.
    If you are doing a Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy, those links will NOT be followed, and the Menu will NOT update in En.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
    I have encountered some instances, where a single Save does not follow those links. With experimentation, I have found that 3 Saves (Ctrl+S) will force those links to be followed, and the Menu updated in En. Not sure why this happens sometimes, but 3 seems to be the "magic number," at least for me.

  • How do I sample color from a photoshop image and apply it to an Encore menu color sets

    I'm about 3 months and many hours of tutorials into Premiere ProCC, Audition CC, and Encore CS6. Apparently the nifty dynamic links from PPro and Audition CS6 no longer work with encore, as encore was not upgraded to CC. So, I want to sample color from an original photoshop image, and create an Encore menu color set, so that my menu bttons, etc. are colored to match the main photo image in the menu. Is there an eyedropper kind of tool in Encore that would let me sample the color from the image, and then apply that to color swatches in the Encore button layers? If there is I can't find it! ~Thanks!

    Strangely enough, I started a thread on this issue a few days ago in the Creative Cloud forum.  I had to uninstall all my pre-CC adobe software to get the Application Manager in sync with the CC apps, so when I tried to use Encore, there it was gone.  So I reinstalled PremPro CS6 just to get Encore back, but when I right clicked a menu in Encore, as asked to Edit in Photoshop, it threw up an error.  The consensus was that Encore CS6 would know nothing about Photoshop CC, so after much time searching for a fix, my only option was to either reinstall Photoshop CS6, or do it manually.
    I took the latter option using Windows 7 to search for the menu, and open/with Photoshop CC.  Stan Jones, who is the Encore equivalent of our Noel, mentioned a brick-bat, but I just saved the edit file and dragged it into Encore, and it worked fine

  • OSStatus Error = -35 while trying to 'Edit menu in Photoshop' using Encore CS6

    While trying to edit my Encore CS6 menu in Photoshop I keep getting 'OSStatus Error = -35'. I contacted Adobe Support via chat and it was suggested that I add Photoshop CS6 to my computer since I use Photoshop CC.  I added CS6 to my computer and I am still getting the same message. I don't see an option to tell Encore to use Photoshop CS6 instead of CC.
    I am using Mac Pro (Late 2013) running Yosemite 10.10.2. I have a full Adobe Cloud membership. Not sure what other information might be pertinent here. I would greatly appreciate any help/support I can get in regards to this issue. 
    I've tried to use iDVD to create my menus, purely out of frustration and found that there are issues with it as well. I see that these authoring programs are not being supported or updated any longer by Adobe or Apple. I have purchased Wondershare Video Creator Ultimate to burn my dvd's but the menu options are limited at best.  My goal is to create a simple custom DVD menu that looks professional using my own graphics. 

    This is a Mac operating system error, and not one that we see often. It is probably a reflection of permissions issues, not what version of PS you do or do not have.
    Yosemite is not supported for Encore, but neither was Mavericks. Many of the issues in Mavericks appeared to be permissions. Most Adobe apps need read/write access, and those were not the defaults for the OS.
    Some Mavericks users reported the following fixes their problems - I eventually assumed that somewhere in the process, it was fixing permissions. But perhaps it does more:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/6109315#6109315
    And comments for these operating systems for Premiere Pro, Adobe Media Encoder, and After Effects may be helpful. (Encore does not have a support team that is active, so nothing official for it.) But there are specific bug fixes for these OSs in CC versions, so....

  • Can I use Encore to make a menu for PDF files?

    I'm looking for software that allows interactive menus to categorize/display about 200 PDF files. I've heard Encore will let you make menus for DVDs with submenus, etc., but will it work for non-video subject matter? It is to be produced on a CD/DVD and used as a fundraiser for a nonprofit. Thanks!

    Your problem is going to be getting a pdf onto a static menu or a still for a slide - and still be readable. Is playback going to be on computer or TV?
    In photoshop, copy a pdf into an Encore menu (as the background) See if it looks okay.
    I suspect that your fantasy is that the user "opens" the pdf and it acts like a pdf does in reader, you can scroll, etc. That just won't work.

Maybe you are looking for
