Clips goes over red color after importing movies clips

Clips goes overdosed by red color after importing movies clips

I guess it doesn't look like that in the QuickTime player. 640x480? That's a computer form of NTSC yet you're using a PAL frame rate. That's very weird. What's the codec?
You might also check the color space your display is set to, though the clip below it in the browser doesn't show the problem.

My current os x is 10.9.5, using final cut express vers. 4.0.1. I have imported .mov clips created with a older mac os x (lion) and converted them to import into fce. after doing this as well as putting clips on the fce timeline when playing back t.h

My current os x is 10.9.5, using final cut express vers. 4.0.1. I have imported .mov clips created on a older mac os x (lion) and when I wanted to import them into fce, a quicktime conversion window opened up and converted them (I haven't experienced this in the past). I then imported the converted quicktime clips into my fce project. After doing this I took selected clips and put those edited clips on the fce timeline. When playing the video back in the fce timeline,I noticed
1) the video wasn't playing back smoothly like the original content
2) when looking at the timecode reading of the timeline, the timecode was sputtering as well as the video and audio. I exported to quicktime just to see if that was consistent, it was.
When I play the converted quicktime content independently of fce, it plays normally (no sputtering of timecode, video and audio. Need help to resolve the sputtering playback of converted video content in the fce timeline. I've never experienced this before. Any suggestions?

When you say you converted the clips before importing them into FCE, did you convert to AIC or DV and do the converted clips match your FCE Sequence settings exactly? If not, go back and convert the original files again, using the intended Sequence settings as a guide.

"No Video Clips Match" after Import Movie

Hi,
I'm trying to import a group of videos into iMovie. They are in the range of 400--900 meg. Some of them import fine. Some of them go through all the process of importing, but then afterwards, I click on the event they should be in and it just shows: "No video clips match the current selection". On of the movies that does not import has the following properties:
          6gig
.m4v format
          JVT/AVC Coding, 640 x 512 (677 x 512)
          AAC, 48000 Hz, Stereo (L R)
          25 FPS
These are more or less the same as the ones that work.
I'm importing by going to File->Import->Movies with the settings:
Create new event
Optimize: either Full Size or Large
Move file and Copy file both tried
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Provide screenshots of your timeline with keyframes revealed, your render settings and your footage interpretation of the source file (s) in question. And please look up the big words in the AE help. Nothing personal and most of us "just want to get things done", but knowing a few basics and the right terminology in a complicated program like AE is inevitable. YouTube tutorials mostly leave out that part....

Cannot edit chapter names in iDVD after importing movie from iMovie

I have no trouble customizing iDVD (version 5.0.1) menu page after importing iMovie directly (instead of going to QT as interim step). But the names of the chapter markers are file names for video clips, title pages and transitions. The iMovie help says to change the names in the space next to the 'thumbnails' of chapters found in iDVD. THERE ARE NO THUMBNAILS. And there is no way I could find, using menu options or clicking on the chapter frames shown in 'map' mode to type in anything.
There are other problems, like getting rid of the default "Travel Cards' stuff...like I can drop a still photo in for a custom background, but the default 'celluloid design' banner still rolls up in previw mode. If you can also help with that, great. But the main thing right now is getting these chapter names change.

VJK,
You are the third person who has taken a crack at this. I don't know if you read my last reply which detailed the situation. But if you did and the 'menu' you refer to is the main menu page, that is not the problem; I can change text there. I am talking about the submenu for 'Scene Selections', which I have only been able to access via map mode.
In map mode I cannot highlight the names. Period. Can't do it no matter where I place the cursor or carefully click.
In preview mode, when the Scene Selection sub-menu page appears whenever you drag the cursor over a chapter name it automatically highlights so any clicking will either do nothing (if a real careful click, trying to highlight text and not trigger off play of the movie chapter) or just start play for the movie chapter.
So...how does this newbie get to the 'menu' you mention where I can click on a chapter name in order to type new text?
You will be able to change the names in the menu, but
depending upon your mouse, etc, it can be a little
particular.
Place the cursor at the very beginning of the word
you want to change. Click once .. this should hi-lite
the word. Click again, it should make the word go
blue (or in a blue box) then you can delete and
re-type.
Be sure to save the proj
I have found that even after saving and successfully
burning the project, if I return to it later the
changes seem to have gone away ... so if you go back
to it later, just double check that everything is
kosher

How to play the main timeline after a movie clip is finished playing.

Ok so here is the problem, I have the main time line with three layers: My actions layer, a music layer, and the movie clip layer.
The movie clip is an actionscript movie which calls images from an external XML file and shows them as a slideshow. What i need to do is after the last image plays, stop the movie and move the main timeline to the next scene of the main movie. Everything logical in my brain is not working, and it may be that I have been staring at this project for too long but for the life of me i can't make this work.
Any help or input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

IMovie HD refuses to import .MOV clips that it used to import.

I've got an odd problem. Doing a search didn't turn up anything relevant to my situation so I'm gonna try to pick some brains on here.
My Problem: My version of iMovie(5.0.2) no longer recognizes .mov clips that it used to. Meaning that when I try to import clips using settings that worked previously, I am now confronted with an Error during import message that reads "The file could not be imported: Unknown Error". Two things have changed since I last made a project.
1.) I have added a microphone that now allows me to record stereo audio. I don't think this is the culprit.
2.) I updated to 10.6.6 Recently. I think this may be what messed things up.
After trying to Drag and also import clips through the menu with no success, I tried to import clips that I have used before under the exact same conditions and was greeted with the same error. This is importing using the HDV 720p setting. If I try to import new or old clips using the standard DV (16:9) setting then everything works.
These same clips are able to be imported into iMovie '09 with no trouble but I am uncomfortable with that interface. Is there anything I can do to continue to work in iMovie HD or would I just be better off with getting used to iMovie 09?
Thank you for any replies.

I have Mac 10.6.6 and use iMovie 05 transferring it to iDVD 08. It is getting less easy to do, but usually i make the movie in 05, complete with chapter marking and press the export to DVD.
The file for the Movie I have made is saved automatically in the Movie folder on my owner/home page. To get it out to iDVD 08 open 08 and select create new project and click save This puts a small file into Documents, However to get your work into the new DVD select import>video and when the screen opens for you to find it go to your movie folder in your owners area and click to open the file. It works, but there is usually a problem somewhere along the line. Usually a different one each time, occasionally it goes like clockwork. It won't work if you try the drop down 'open' option.
This last time I got so irritated that I've downloaded the last set of film clips to 05 and then transferred them to 08 to compare the results. I still feel that the later versions are less good (?dumbed down) and await to be converted.

AE How to Change the color of a movie clip?

I have a movie clip of a White Show Avalanche. How can I change the color from White to another earthly color. I would like to post 2 images, one still of the white avalanche and one still image of the color or look I am after. Can you post or attach images to this thread? If so how?
I am not just trying to change the Hue/Saturation.

To elaborate on Ko's post: In RGB space, White is presented by full values of 1 (or 255, if you like that better) for Red, Green and Blue. Since there's no differential between the individual components, there's nothing to shift the Hue. Hence you will have to find alternate ways of recoloring your stuff.
A simplistic way would e.g. be using effects such as Tint, Tritone or Colorama based on the Luminance. A more elaborate way would be cutting up the whole thing in multiple pieces (debris, shadows, waves, edges) and color correct each part individually. In any case you will very likely have to work with multiple instances of your layer and apply some masking here and there.

Audio out of sync after importing .MOV

Experiencing audio out-of-sync issues after importing a .mov clip into Premiere Pro.
The .mov clip causing the problem does not have a problem when played with quicktime or vlc: The audio matches the video perfectly.
Adobe Premiere Pro CC 7.2.1 (4) on OSX 10.9.1
Open Premiere, New Project ... > OK > Import the single video clip (whether by dragging into the app, or using the Media Browser). Start playing the clip in the Source monitor, scrub forward. Result: audio and video are way out of sync.
The .mov clip causing the problem was exported from Silverback app. http://silverbackapp.com/

Speeding up imported .mov clips

Apple has given me a great tool to use for creating tutorials, not only to share but also to burn as a pretty solid DVD.
That said I will describe what I am doing and what I would like to do.
1) I am using SnapzPro with iMovie '08 to make tutorial videos that I am sharing from .mac,
and later aspire to make full on DVD's from.
2) I have sucessfully imported, edited, voiced over, and shared this clips with only one minor detail.
What i wish to do is speed up some of the clips when playing back. Does anyone know how to do this? Because, it seems like apple while simplifying the app, they've taken out even more edit controls from iMovie, where I might actually have to purchase FC express to achieve what I want to do.
-One thing I tried, and failed at, was taking the movies into QT pro, and speeding up the playback time, but when imported into iMovie, it strips that setting and plays back at normal speed.
Because of the length of the capture, I want to speed up playback, and then transition to highlight points of the film, is there a way to do this in '08?

Thanks for the tip,
I guess what i am going to try is, importing the clips into FCP 5 and see if I can speed them up and add my transitions there. FCP is one app I have to learn all over again every time I use it, but one I edit there I guess try and reintroduce the clips into imovie and see how that goes..

Why do imported movie clips take up so much space?

I've recently moved over from a Windows PC to a Mac, and have been busy transferring over all my music, photos and videos. The problem I'm having is with the videos... they seem to be taking up far too much space on the Mac.
On the PC, the size of all the movie clips combined is 56.2 GB, but on the Mac the exact same clips take up 261.77 GB (the size of the iMovie events folder). And that takes into account the size of the thumbnails and the "iMovie Original Movies" folders (I actually emptied all of the "iMovie Original Movies" folders completely).
If I look at the size of one specific video (a .mov file), then it starts getting a little crazy. One that takes up 27.2 MB on the PC will take up 149.7 MB on the Mac. Another takes up 17.4 MB on the PC and 109.7 MB on the Mac. They are still the exact same files -- nothing has changed, nothing has been edited, they've simply been imported into iMovie at the optimized size (960x540) though the iMovie DropBox.
I don't understand why they have ballooned in size by such a great amount.
If anyone has any clues about how I can get the file sizes down, or any ideas about why they are so large, that would be great

How to Compare colors of two Movie Clip?

Hello every one,
I have a movie clip which is a line. This movieclip is rotating 90 degree on mouseclick I have taken 3 movie clips and i want to change their color on some condition.
if 1_mc hit 2_mc then color of both will change into red and if not then color of both will remains Black.
if 2_mc hit 3_mc and color of 2_mc is red then color of 3_mc will change into red. otherwise color of both 2_mc and 3_mc will remains black.

Well i got success in that...this is the another problem.
> when 1_mc is connected with 2_mc that time color will be red.
> when 1_mc is connected with 2_mc and 2_mc is connected with 3_mc then color of 3_mc will be red.
> if 1_mc is not connected with 2_mc then color of 2_mc will be black. hence color of 3_mc will also be black.
here on 3_mc i want that if it is connected with 2_mc and color of 2_mc is red then and only then color of 3_mc will change into red. otherwise it remains black.

Importing MOV clips into Premier Elements 10

I'm trying to import Qucktime MOV clips into Adobe Premier Elements 10 but they install as audio files only. How can I get them to load as video clips so I can construct a movie from them?

Hi
I'm using a Mobius 1080p HD camera shooting in HD producing MOV files.
I've inspected one of the files using Quicktime/Windows and the information is
Format - H.264. 1920 x 1080. Millions 16 bit Integer (Little Endian). Mono. 32.000 Htz
Movie FPS = 30.00
Playing FPS = 30.00
Data Size 401.47 MB
Data Rate 18.19 mbits/sec
Duration 00.03.05.00
Normal Size 1920 x 1080 pixels
Current Size 1920 x 1080 pixels
The clips play in excellent quality HD and without a problem in Windows Media Player
I have reformated some in MP4 format and they will play back in Premier Elements after a fashion.. but very slow and jerky making editing just about impossible. I have reloaded Adobe Premier Elements on another computer but get the same results.
It appears Adobe Premier Elements is not up to dealing with these files.

Different colors after imported into LR3

I really i do not know what is this problem related to, but after I imported pitures into lightroom , it makae some modification and change the color of the picture.
Here are the examples:
The picture rendered by CDPP, looks as i wanted the picture to look like (also looks like this in the camera), while the one in LR modified the color, I have check the setting in the importer and i do not apply any preset. What am i am doing wrong? or there is a known problem in LR? Note: the render preview option is minimal.
The other issue i have. is when i shoot a picture with a high iso it ended up in LR with a red color. if needed i can post some exmaples as well.
Thanks for the help.

Helena,
You're right.
@Cafu_co,
Lightroom won't automatically match your camera settings, and it never will.
What you can do is to edit a file in Lightroom so it approximates the starting point that you'd like to have, and then make that the default change to the image that you're presented with after importing. You set the default in the Develop Module: hold down the Alt/Opt key and the button on the lower right of the window changes to Set Defaults... Press it.
One of the things that you'll want to investigate during that process is the Profile setting in the Camera Calibration panel. Most Canon models have profiles available that mimic your picture styles that can be set in the camera.

Disk usage after importing movie files into iMovie

The movie files on my iMac consume about 200 gig of space on a 1TB hard drive.
It seems that after I imported them into iMovie, much more of my hard rive is consumed.
Does importing the movie files into iMovie double the disk space used?
Len in NC

Yes you should expect that imported movies will be much larger than the original on the camera. That's because the camera's AVCHD format records a full movie frame only about once a second. In between it stores only differences from the previous frame. That saves a lot of space, but requires a lot more processing power to display the movie during editing. It would also require reprocessing of multiple frames each time you split a clip somewhere that happens not to be a fully-recorded frame.
That's why all of Apple's video software (even Final Cut Studio) converts AVCHD at import time to a format that makes each frame independent, but that uses several times as much space. Actually the pro software uses an even bulkier format than iMovie, to provide more bits per pixel, so that you can do more extensive post processing without loss of quality.
You may want to get one or more big external drives (preferably firewire 800 for speed) to hold your imported movie files.
