Color correction shuts me down

Everytime I try to use any color correction my system shuts down. What should I do to fix this problem?

It depends on what you mean by "shuts down".
If it literally turns itself off, it could be that you are plugged into a UPS that is not big enough to handle the power supply in your PC.
I had that problem after I bought a new PC. Went out and bought a new UPS, probalem solved.
Or, you could be overheating.
Or, you might have some problems that wiping out your cache would help.

  • So i dont know if its just me, But my ( About a month old) I phone 5, keeps Shutting itself down, Then The sceen goes different colors and patterns and shuts off. Its been repeating this for many days and nothing i do seems to work!!! Help!!!!!

  • Color correction slows down editing

    In CS 5.5 I  adjusted the curves for color correction for the first time and then renedered the 12min video for 1hour 20min. I now see a couple of minor clip edits I want to make.  However, Premiere is acting very slow and choppy.  Is the color correcting I did slowing the edit process down?

    Truthfully, what I would recommend is to turn off all CC,
    edit, nail your timings... then color correct.
    I always have considered and treated CC as a 'final touch'
    that can't really be done full justice until the cut itself is solid.
    But...
    If you have clips that really need to be CC'ed as you are editing,
    you should Preview Render those clips for smooth playback
    in the Timeline as you continue to edit.

  • My Macbook pro often won't start up since I installed Lion, and I have to shut it down using power button. My desktop icons don't appear and the dock won't open. I only have the little circle of color spinning endlessly. What's wrong now!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • After my iMac has been on for 30 minutes or so it stops functioning correctly it will just spin when i try to close a program or shut it down

    after my iMac (intel) has been on for 30 minutes or so it stops working correctly when i try to close a program or shut it down the little ball spins and the computer is frozen and i have to cut power ... the back of the computer seems to be hotter than it should I assume that has something to do with what is going on

    Please determine if the problems also occur in "Safe Mode":
    Safe Mode or "Safe Boot" is a troubleshooting mode that bypasses all third party system extensions and loads only required system components. Read about it: Starting up in Safe Mode
    You must disable FileVault before you can start your Mac in Safe Mode.
    Starting your Mac in Safe Mode will take longer than usual, graphics will not render smoothly, audio is disabled on some Macs, and some programs (iTunes for example) may not work at all.
    Merely starting your Mac in Safe Mode is not intended to resolve the problem, it's to observe its performance without certain additional components.
    To end Safe Mode restart your Mac normally. Shutdown will take longer as well.

  • How can I see the combined result of primary and secondary color correction in the vectorscope

    Hello there,
    so I can't figure out how to see the combined result of all the color correction I did on a shot. If I click on each individual layer (primary or each individual secondary) I can see the result of each one individually on the vectorscope, but I want to be able to see the final result of all the layers combined.  Is this possible within speedgrade? 
    thanks in advance for the help
    Luc

    Occasionally SpeedGrade seems to forget itself or something. It's kinda weird/funny, but ... on occasions I have been working and say one tab just stopped responding when I clicked on it, but everything else was fine. Shut it down, come back into it ... all is righteous. Thankfully I've not had some of the major bonkers-responses some clearly have. I'm sure that will come also. This is an incredibly complicated and complex program under the hood, of course. But all in all ... I do love working in it.
    When I have the excuse to do so ...

    Hmm. The problem still may be the RAM - Apple buys the RAM it puts in its machines from third-party vendors (usually Hynix) so it could be a RAM problem.
    There are a couple of things that you can do yourself before taking your machine into an Apple Store or an AASP... download and run an application named Rember that will run a RAM test for you - let it run for a couple of hours or even overnight. If it turns out that your RAM is faulty, Rember will let you know. If it is faulty, then you have a couple of options - replace the RAM yourself or (particularly if you're under warranty still) take the machine to an Apple Store or AASP and have them replace the RAM.
    If Rember finds no fault with the RAM, then you'll need to take it into an Apple Store/AASP and get a free diagnosis on the machine. Three beeps do usually indicate faulty RAM, but if it tests good with Rember you likely have another problem - it could be something as simple as the RAM, somehow, not seated correctly or signs of another hardware problem.
    Run Rember first... call back with results.
    Good luck,

  • I have a Macbook and I left it unplugged. It started up slowly when I plugged it in again, but it seemed fine. Once it started charging I shut it down so it would be easier, but now it will not go past the grey screen with the apple. What do I do?

    I have a Macbook and I left it unplugged. It started up slowly when I plugged it in again, but it seemed fine. Once it started charging I shut it down so it would be easier, but now it will not go past the grey screen with the apple. What do I do?
    I have Snow leopard on my computer, and I tried to do a hard restart as an article suggested, but it did not work. I also tried cleaning out the PRAM.
    The only things I did last night:
    -cleaned the history of Firefox out, including cookies
    -let it unplugged all night
    -plugged it back in the morning, it took a long time to figure itself out, but eventually the time was correct and I got on the internet for a bit
    -shutdown the computer since I was going out and thought it would help the computer charge
    -came back, tried to turn it on, and found that it would not go past the grey screen the apple on it and the spinning wheel even though I left it for 20 minutes or more
    -tried turning it off and on to no avail

    Before doing a reinstall, which may not be needed at this point,
    Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
    You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Repair reports and if DU was able to repair them. This could just be a start in repairs and you may need a better utility to finish the job.
    Then Repair Permissions.
    No need to report any Permissions errors........we all get them.

  • Color correction

    there was a thread on cs5 about this that interested me, so I started new thing here cause Im using cs3..
    Shooternz, your help in the cs5 thread was great...and this is what I did....in my particular circumstances...
    ( I have to say that this is really the first time I'm sorta getting serious about CC and using the scopes etc...to try to learn this better )
    I know the basics and the monitor stuff and the way people shoot properly exposed grayscale, color etc on set for calibration ( using film mostly in my experience, but done with digital too as I've seen )...
    Sooo, here's the thing... I shot this clip as a test to see how long the music had to be to get a mssg across later on ( an insert shot that I will shoot on the day in the right location etc )... so this was a timing test sorta....didnt care about the lighting.
    However, since I shot it I've tried to make it as good as I can ( why not ? )
    I had a flourescent unit ( drop down ceiling 32K flourescents ) above...but it read about 36k on color meter and needed color correction at that ( LB and CC correction ..know what I mean ? )...so OK...who cares, its a test and timing only sooooo I dont put gels on the light and just shoot.
    Soooo, I DID IN FACT put a grayscale down to fix it later if possible....even though it wasn't lit right....
    This is what it looks like basically...
    pretty terrible...very yellow and compressed tones etc...not good...
    Soo, following your suggestions in thread in cs5, using waveform and vectorgraph, I come up with this instead..
    WAYY BETTER !  ( thank you ! )....but...not perfect...thats OK, I didnt light it right...but better ....
    Now, though, when I paste attributes of this to the clip in question I end up with this pixelation or "splotchy " stuff..as shown here
    Now, my experience using psd tells me that if you try to correct too much, there's a sorta " limit" to what you can do, and things start just plain getting screwed up..."splotchy" like this...  but if I had some way to just pick on the "yellow" gamma or something maybe I could get rid of it ....OR do a color replacement ( change ??? )... like pick out that particular color and change it to something closer to the white???  Have you ever dealt with this type thing ???  I know I started out all wrong to begin with but am wondering what you think ??
    Thanks !
    Rod
    ps...this was a dumb test so please dont , you know, put much into this...I know I shot it all screwed up to begin with..

    Hey Rod
    Your CC looks fine and if the intention was to correct the col temp and exposure issue..you did fine.  I see you have a full scale of tones in the greys.
    Obviously you should start off with a correct  exposure  and that doesn ot necessarily mean a "technically correct" exposure.
    You do not have to shoot and CC / grade to display the full range from Balck to white.
    Its important to rember that the CC and grade (and the composition) are part of "the story"  At times you will want crushed blacks and other times you may want a high key look or compressed tones in the mid.  Then afetr the "tones" you think about what color tells the story.
    Always..... Levels before Color correction!
    BTW - the eye rules but ensure technically that the scopes confirm what you think you see.
    Heres someof my images reflecting different CC for a "fit with the story"
    Flat , clean,compressed mid tones, clinical ( a green screen BTW)
    Dark , compressed toward blacks with detail in mids, juicy highlightsdramatic ( slo mo)
    Full tonal range,hi color, "summer on xmas day"
    full range color and tone, texture "yummy"
    Clean and clinical mid ranges with slight color de-saturation of BG
    FG grade to match bg (key) and fit time of day look.
    Keep in mind...the above shots started in the photography and the cc / grade is enhancement.
    Good luck mate.

  • HD Plasma Televisions as a Color Correction Monitor

    Hello All In MacNirvana,
    I am working on a Powerbook 15" ( see specs below) and work with a lot of video editing with HD video. I am wondering if an HD or HD Plasma TV are suitable to use as monitors for color correction for film and TV when I edit in FCEHD.
    And then I should also confim that I will be able to use the TV as a second display. I use a projector sometimes as a monitor by hooking a basic S cable up to the Pwrbk. I would think that this ( or maybe some other fancy cable combo ) would work well with a new HDTV.
    I'm a real newbie to the HDTV thing, ( although I'm pretty handy with FCEHD, HD video and Compressor, etc....) so any answers should come in baby talk. Dumb it down for the kids sitting in back.
    Thanks!

    It is generally a good idea to edit (or at least see the effects of your edits) on a TV vs. the computer monitor. I do this as well, but I am not sure it is being done properly by using a TV as a 2nd monitor (with a S video cable or the DVI out). With S video maybe with DVI you would be using a non-interlaced signal that should scan the entire width of the HDTV and this could be more than a TV viewable area.
    I use a FW cable back to a DV camera (NB: a low cost DV camera is a lot less than a DV deck adn you can control it with FC) then connect the AV out to the TV. Since you want the work rendered to NTSC TV so it appears on the TV as it will look when played back.
    You can do this as well with FInal Cut - the same DV camera you used to capture as it is already connected - just set FC to FW out and add a TV to the AV jacks on the DV camera.

  • Copy and Paste Single Color Correction

    I'm trying to copy and paste a single color correction to the rest of the clips in the timeline and run into a problem.  I've tried to disable the other color corrections before copying but all that does is paste the unchecked correction also.  I've tried deleting the other corrections before copying but that likewise deletes all the previous corrections in the clip that I paste to.  So in other words, no matter how I configure my color corrections in the clip that I copy from, the exact same configuration is what gets pasted into the paste clip.  Surely there is a way to copy a single color correction when dealing with clips with multiple corrections?  My protocol is to adjust contrast on one correction, color balance on another and now I want to add a tint to a number of clips with out having to write down the color parameters and individually make the adjustments in maybe 70 or 80 clips.  Thanks for any insights.  Oh yeah I'm using FCPX 10.1.1

    You don't.  In the PRIMARY and SECONDARY rooms, you can save grades.  Park your playhead on a clip, hit SAVE. Those grades will show up no matter what project you open in Color. 
    What I do is make folders for every project, and save my shot grades in there.  I can then apply it to another project, if I have the need.  When working on a reality series, I often have the need.

  • Color Correcting in Final Cut general question

    I am finding I'm at the end of a long process with my feature film and I'm preparing to output and yet again I've run up against a wall of my ignorance...
    1. It's a dv film I don't want to just output the film and then apply a color correct as I'm afraid of a lot of clipping...so I'm doing the individual clips through the film and I'm finding a lot of them I have to limit the rgb to 90 some go as low as 88, some are just fine at 100 or 97...it was shot on the dvx100 and I looked up the dvx and see it is geared for superwhite...but I want to prepare my film for broadcast...I wonder though if this is why I'm getting a lot that I have to limit the rgb to 90??? I wouldn't have known to tell the DP please don't use the superwhite settings.
    So am I doing this right?
    After I output the whole thing, do I color correct the quicktime again when I letterbox it (it's 720x480 to be letterboxed to 1:85:1) before encoding it for the mpeg2? Or if I'm doing it this way is it not necessary?
    Thank you

    Also is it stupid to do this when I already went through the film and applied color correction as what is bothering me is a lot of the color correct with the range check shows that little arrow that shows it's on the edge...those are the clips I'm bringing down to code because a lot of them the rgb is too hot...for just preparing a professional dv is it necessary to do what I'm doing?
    I really want to prepare it once and not do different color corrects again so if what I'm doing above is correct for broadcast quality though it's going to look more muted on a dvd but maybe that's my confusion as many of the bright hilights giving it that look are on the verge or are clipped.

  • I just LOVE Color Correcting in FCP X

    Don't ask me about the technical stuff but for some reason, I can now get great color (colour really) from some clips I shot back in 2006. The stuff I shoot these days is usually very consistent but these old clips muddy and have severe colour casts.
    The new Color Board in FCP X seems to cope really well.
    Being able to drag either of the four buttons to the colour that needs adjustment, slide it up or down for a rough adjustment, and then a tiny bit to the left or right to perfect the job is so user-friendly.
    I disliked the old color wheels on FCP Studio, where it all seemed much less precise unless you were able to move a mouse in a perfect circle.
    Anyone else have any thoughts on it?

    My on-going off-and-on project has been editing and moving my old home movies to DVD so they can languish away digitally instead of as VHS tapes.  (This includes quite a few Super-8mm films which were converted to VHS in the mid 80s, so its still all VHS.) 
    Sprinkled in with this are more current home movie projects such as "How we spent our year" Travelmentaries (commonly called vacation movies), and an annual DVD of our Boy Scout Troop outings for the year. 
    First I have to say, this has all been hobby and goes along in fits and starts.  FCP 3 got old and clunky when it had to be pushed thru Rosetta like a meat grinder, and I messed with iMovie until FCE 4 came along.  If I had dedicated myself, probably would have finished all the VHS stuff long ago, but mostly worked on stuff when it occurred to me that peeps in the Super-8 stuff, for instance, might actually enjoy seeing it all again 40 years later. And the color correction stuff was tedious and wearing, making anticipation of the next project less inviting.
    In all this, doing a limited amount of color correction and sharpening worked pretty well.  But I have to say that having all the parts (color, saturation, exposure) right there working the same with the same 4 "grab and drag" method has actually made the whole job far less imposing.
    The one thing I miss about the color wheel, however, is that whatever color over-tinted the clip, dragging the "button" directly away from it pretty much settled the problem.  For instance, if shot inside with the yellowish incandescent tinting, blue was the color needed, and it was opposite yellow.
    It took a bit to get used to the color bar's method of removing yellow in maybe light tones area and adding a little blue, perhaps, in the mid-tones.  But I also quickly found that by playing with the exposure in either area, I can sharpen those old fuzzy VHS tapes -- something I never noticed was happening until I tried it.  The sharpen effect works pretty good as a start (used unsharp mask in FCE), but the color bar really sharpens things up, if not overdone.
    Personally, I find I am anticipating spending lots of time on my "restoration" projects now, all because of the ease of use and power of FCPX.  I finally finished one I started (converting the VHS tapes to DV) in 2009, although in all fairness, it was an extra four hours left over after having processed at least as much at the time.  (To make things less intimidating, I have also moved the VHS player and now convert the tapes directly to disk using an otherwise now unused Canon DV camera as an AV to DV convertor.
    But I am certainly one of those apparently targetted by Apple with the new FCPX at the expense of losing their loyal professional base.  And the Color Bar's ease of use is a major part of that.
