Can't slice gradient with adjusted bright/contrast filter

I was playing around with gradients, and finally came up with something I wanted to try on my site. I'm taking a shade of yellow (#CC9933), then adjusting the colors with a brightness/contrast filter (brightness -81, contrast -8). But when I try to export a slice of the image, or just copy it to another Fireworks file for export, I am getting the original, bright yellow gradient, not the darker gradient with the adjusted brightness/contrast settings. What am I doing wrong?
I've attached a copy of the image I'm working with. It shows both the image with the adjusted colored gradient I want, and (to the right) how the slices are looking like.
Thanks much to anyone who can help

Thank you, Jim. I don't know what I was doing last night. Everytime I tried to export or copy from
the darker image, I'd get the lighter one in Dreamweaver. I just tried it after reading your posting, and it works fine now. I think the lesson for me is, don't work at 3:30 am.
Can you recommend which format (jpeg or png24) I should export as? The darker image, that is. I don't want the lighter one.
Thanks again.

  • Colored frames when adjusting brightness/contrast

    Hello kind people. I am trying to adjust brightness/contrast on a short clip in my video, and I keep getting some colored frames that play when I replay the clip. I can stop at the colored clips, some are blue, and some are magenta. Anyone have an answer? I have rendered the clips, but I can't figure it out, and have never had this problem.
    Thanks,
    Mike.
    Final Cut Pro 6.0.6

    I reset the codec to Pro. All the footage I shot myself with the same camera setting. Also, I am only editing this one short clip, so it's not mixing with anything else I don't think.
    I figured out a go around from my problem. Instead of going to Effects, Video Filters, Quicktime, Brightness/Contrast, I am now doing Effects, Video Filters, Image Control, Brightness. It seems to automatically take care of the contrast to make it look nice.

  • Strange Artifacts with Brightness/Contrast Filter

    I've applied the brightness/contrast filter to several stills and then on the last 6 frames, I pump the brightness to 100 to create a flash transition. However, on several of these, I'm getting very strange black artifacts after rendering. They appear on the edges of the frame.
    They're not there before rendering, so it's not because that's what the image is supposed to look like at 100 brightness.
    Has anyone ever experienced this or have any ideas how to fix it?
    Thanks!
    Cameron

    Interesting development. I got a different transition from Eureka! plugins that's basically the same as the Buena one except it doesn't crash my system. Rendered it, and lo and behold! Same problem. The same kind of artifacts show up on the edges. The problem with cropping it is that then I just have to re-render and the artifacts come up again.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • Brightness Contrast filter won't stop flickering

    My Brightness & Contrast filter is acting crazy. Most of the time, it works fine, but sometimes changes suddenly. Right in the middle of the clip, it will change brightness. Sometimes, it happens in brief flashes, sometimes constant, and other times, it rapidly flickers. This is only happening to certain clips, at complete random. Why is it doing this?
    If anybody knows how I can stop this, please help.
    Powermac G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   using FCP 4.5

    Tried trashing renders. still can't figure it out.
    It seems to happen on both the external monitor and the clip itself. Tried exporting into new quicktime movies, also as still image sequences and the flicker still happens to these certain clips when the contrast filter is applied. Seems to be embedded in the footage itself, but doesn't happen when there's no filter.

  • Using Brightness & Contrast filter in FCP (Why the lighting/color shifts??)

    I'm using the standard Brightness & Contrast filter that comes with FCP but when I do so the video I apply it to has crazy shifts in color and lighting, any help with getting rid of these or at least minimizing them would be much appreciated!
    Thanks
    Kevin

    The Brightness and Contrast filter in FCP is worthless, plain worthless and does more damage than good. Same with the Proc Amp filter which along with the B&C filter should be eliminated from the FCP tool kit.
    As Mr. X. has rightly stated, use the 3way. Get to know it intimately as it does darn near everything you need to accomplish.

    All the videos I buy from the Apple store play too bright on my monitor - I want to adjust the brightness & contrast but I can't find any way to do this. I don't want to change the overall brightness and contrast of my video card as then all my other videos are too dark. How can I just adjust the video options in iTunes?

  • Adjust brightness/contrast/geometry in ubuntu or open firmware

    Hi,
    I've installed ubuntu in my mac and wiped out mac os 9/x.
    But the linux system does not allow me to adjust the brightness/contrast/geometry. I got a CRT display too bright, 1 cm off the center and too small.
    Anybody has any clue about adjusting the display settings in linux for a iMac G3 CRT? I tried a lot and searched a lot but don't have any findings, except reinstall a mac os, which I do not want to do. Also, is there anyway to do that in the open firmware command line interface?
    Many thanks for any help!
    Jim

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    I don't believe there is any depth of linux experience in the iMac forums. I'd advise re-posting in the Ubuntu forums (here).

  • Adjust Brightness Contrast Gamma Grayscale IMAQ

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to use the IMAQ image display to adjust the BCG values of an acquired U16 image.  In searching for a solution, the IMAQ BCGLookup and the Image Operators (+,-,*,/) seem like the preferred approach in LabVIEW.
    Can BCGLookup do this alone? I've attached an image of my attempt at adjusting BCG using this function. Here, I get an error specifying "IMAQ Vision: Ivalid Image Type"
    I resorted to the above approach after failing use the image operators, the screen shot of this is also attached.  At least with the one configuration of this attempt, I do not get an error, but the adjusted image fails to display.
    I appreciate any advise or input anyone might be able to offer.
    Thanks!!

    Greetings, 
    The IMAQBCGLookup seems to be indeed the way to go for your application. 
    From looking at the images you have posted, is there a reason as to why we are not using a secondary memory location for the modified image? 
    After quickly looking through the BCGLookup documentation, it would seem that the supported image for the function would be U8. As such, while the BCG Lookup Example.VI in the example finder might be informative, I do not know if it might be too useful. 
    I have looked around a bit and have found, in the following article, an example that deals with 16bit images, give it a try and let me know if that helps!

  • X20 LED Adjust brightness & contrast

    I just bought this monitor.  The brightness and contrast are set too high. I read the manual and brought up the main menu but I cannot, using the monitor buttons, get to the sub-menu to change those two items (the brightness is set way too high:  90).  I've worked in IT for 20+ years but this has me stumped.  The manual does not detail how to get to the sub-menus.
    Any help would be great.  Thanks!
    This question was solved.

    Hello pdwight11,
    The menu has three keys to primarily use the menu key and the plus (+) and minus (-) key. To get into the sub menus press the menu key to bring up the OSD. Then by using the plus or minus navigate through the list. Press the menu key to select that menu and then plus or minus to navigate within the sub menu.
    Does this get you into one of the options?

  • Can't open movies with QT 7 Pro

    I have QT 7 Pro and verified the key number in registration area. It clearly says I have it installed.
    I was following the instructions to create iPod movies from my iMovies. The movies are all shaded and the Pro 7 features are also shaded. It appears that it does not recognize my Pro 7 status.
    Is there a way to check or turn something else on to do this.
    I purchased the "key" in Aug. 05.

    As Ricktoronto and others have repeatedly pointed out in many threads here, the easiest way to convert videos for the iPod is..
    If these remarks are directed at me, Julie, then I thank you for the recommendation and will certainly check out the latest version of iSquint (v1.2.3) in order to compare it with previous versions. However, while I might agree that this utility may be easier to use for the novice, I still prefer a more flexible free (not sure how you get "free-er" than free) application like MPEG Streamclip when it comes to adjusting brightness, contrast, saturation, and volume while simultaneously cropping, rescaling, and deinterlacing 20-70 year old media for play on my iPod using my own preferred custom settings (which are frequently modified based on content). As to speed, even QT 7 can perform realtime/faster than realtime conversions if you switch from the dedicated iPod preset to MPEG-4 presets and utilize the MPEG4 rather than the H.264 codec. Of course, everyone has their own personal favorites when it comes to actual software and workflow.

  • Brightness/Contrast issue

    when I add the brightness/contrast filter to my footage and adjust it-the picture looks normal,until I render, in which case I get flickering multi-colored frames. I'm editing prores422HQ footage at 23.98fps. The timeline is set to the correct setting, and I've tried different render settings with no luck. Any help would be appreciated...

    In support of Jim, (and I don't know what camera you are using when I say this). But pro gear, tends to record in a bigger colour space (higher colour resolution 4.2.2) therefore when adjusting (using FCP filters for example) there's greater latitude to tolerate the adjustments. In my early days of single chip, just a few minor tweaks in brightness contrast can have the image fall off really dramatically, so you do need to get the image right when you record it i.e. even a single chip will record a great image when lit well, but under-lit, it's very difficult to make adjustments using FCP filters.

  • Adjusting brightness on external LCD of MacBook

    I have a Samsung Syncmaster 2033 connected to my MiniDisplayPort. The buttons on the side of the monitor have stopped working. Is there anyway I can adjust brightness/contrast and/or any of the other configuration settings for the monitor from OS X? Otherwise, is there a third party software out there that will do it?
