Color movie showing in Black & White

AppleTV is hooked up and working according to specs aside from one issue: A color movie in my iTunes is playing on the TV in Black & White. Any clues?

  • How convert a color PDF File to black & white (gray scale...no color)

    How convert a color PDF File to black & white (gray scale...no color)??? creative cloud cs6... Acrobat etc

    Hi, just wanted to add my 2¢
    I've been in publishing over 25 years and live in Acrobat for making my final files. Currently with a newspaper.
    This is what we do:
    • Tool Panes > Print Production Window
    • Select CONVERT COLORS
    • Midway down under OUTPUT INTENT, check Convert Colors to Output Intent
    • In the associated drop down menu, I choose (because I'm printing on newsprint) DOT GAIN 20% – If you're working on better stock, choose a lower dot gain percentage.
    • Click OK – this will convert the file
    • Save
    Note: this affects the file you're working with. Make sure that you use this method on a COPY if you want to retain the original color version.
    I think if you compare my method to the Preflight method, you'll see a tighter contrast and better blacks. I've always felt the Preflight method left continuous tones a little muddy.
    Now if there was only a way to add that to ACTIONS...!

    Have the PRAM battery looked at.  It may be all that is needed.

  • 2 ?s - Can't view photos on plasma - tv shows only show in black/white

    I connected my 60GB iPod to my 60" Pioneer Elite Plasma television. Photos will not come up. I turned "TV on" and no photos appear. Any suggestions?
    The other issue I am having is watching a TV show on the Plasma. I downloaded LOST and was able to enlarge it to fit the 60", but it only appears in black & white and with purple lines in it. I tried changing from NTSC to Pal and this did not work. Any suggestions???

    Make sure your connecting to the right input or Composite input to your TV; Not Component R,G,B input.
    Try direct connection to TV without looping thru any other equipment for this test!
    After that if you still have video problems use a different set of A/V cables, as the ones your using could be damaged.!
    Do the checks and then post results..!

  • HV20 Camcorder Camera/Record Mode shows intermittent black & white fuzzy screen

    I rarely use this camcorder since owning it and most of the time it's stored in its camcorder bag until the next big special event (e.g. a wedding). It is very well taken care of and looks like new. One day I took it out to check on and playing back recorded videos on the minidv tapes were fine, clear and perfect. However, once I switch the mode to Camera/Recording mode, the screen changes to a fuzzy black & white screen, then fades into another black & white screen, then fades into a perfect color screen, and then back to fuzzy black & white screen again. The screen continually cycles like this nonstop. I tried recording a random video (see attached youtube video link: http://youtu.be/akR8OGsIEaY) to see if playing it back would be perfect and the playback video was exactly what I recorded... fuzzy black & white screen intermittently changing in and out. I again left the camcorder in storage until today when I wanted to use it for a wedding tomorrow. I searched for troubleshooting help and many people seem to suggest a head cleaner. I found one from RadioShack and ran it through the camcorder but the Camera/Record mode is still the same. What is wrong with my camcorder? I take really good care of it and rarely use it. Do I need to send it in for repair? If so, what are the steps and process for doing so? Thank you in advance.

    It may be time to send the camera in, or maybe put it to rest and think of upgrading. I only use my HV30 as an AV/DV converter now, and haved moved on to an HFM40, I bought one here at Canon, refurbed, great camera, great price.
    I'll watch this thread, though, for updates. There is another forum, though, dedicated to the HV20-30-40. You might find some very interesting things there, and answers. I won't post the link here, but if you Google HV20-30-40, you'll find it.

  • Color footage exports as black & white

    I am using Premiere Pro CS4 on an XP machine.  The footage is color.  When I export the footage it is converted to black and white.  I have tried different export settings, exporting as .mov and .avi.  Why would the footage be converted to B & W?

    Nest the track with the garbage matte.
    See it that will help.

  • Covert color pdf to a black & white

    Does anyone know how to convert a color pdf into black and white? We're having some space issues on our server and have some documents that were scanned in color that we would like to convert to black and white to reduce the file size. I am using Adobe 8 Standard. I've tried printing the document to the Acrobat Distiller and choosing black and white in the print options, but it still prints it in color.

    Have you done a search of the forum? There have been a few topics on this in the last few weeks.
    There are options in PDF Optimize that some have tried to use and there is also an option under TOOLS>Print Production that has some options along this manner.
    I have found that the conversion to B&W does not always seem to work as you have found. These other options might help. Bill

  • Color LiveType Titling Turned Black & White

    Pretty new to FCE, but I have an OK grasp of it.
    I created a sequence which included several .ipr LiveType files. I decided I wanted to change the font. I entered FCE, right clicked on the media element for the title. LiveType opened up.
    The titling used a default transition, and a moving default color texture as a text mask, not a background.
    I changed the font, re-rendered and saved. When I went back into FCE, the text was white (background was default black). Previewing in LiveType, the titles are in color.
    Is this a bug or have I done something wrong?

    If you are just doing it to half of an image, a Graduated filter (perhaps several of them stacked) with a rapid transition break and 100% desat would work.
    Otherwise you could stack multiple occurances of the adjustment brush until you drive all color out.
    web-weaver is correct in pointing out this is a job better suited to PS.

  • .Mov shows only black screen

    Hey Guys and Gals,
    Installed Mavericks yesterday and so far very happy. I am a freelance cinematographer/editor and prior to the upgrade I had some footage from a client that was in .MOV format, codec I can't remember but now the system doesn't play these files at all, Quicktime says converting and says a .mov is not supported. Also I get only black video in Adobe Premiere. Any ideas?

    I got same problem with h264 exported by ADOBE Premiere Pro, and my soundman cannot play it on his MAc it gives a black screen. But he can playback other h264 with similar specs, but that that were made with Sorenson 3.

  • IPhoto 11 upgrade corrupted photos, Photo showing up black white outlines

    I am going to post in the iPhoto and Time Machine forums. I tried to upgrade to the iPhoto 11, and bunch of my photos are now showing up blank with white outlines. I would only say that about half of my photos between July 4th and when I did the upgrade are showing up in this manner.
    I went back to iPhoto 9 and tried to restore my iPhoto Library back to the point just before I upgraded. When I go into iPhoto "Browse backup" it still shows the the photos blank with white outlines. Also on the right side of Time Machine there are only white bars until Nov 17th. The bars before then are gray. What does this mean?
    Any suggestions on how to recover the corrupt photos?

    Are you sure the photos are corrupt? Sounds like the thumbnails need to be rebuilt to me: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.

  • When I place a colored image, it goes black & white. Why?

    Pleas advise what settings to change, so the image stays in color when placed.

    The file that you're placing the color image into is most like set to grayscale.  Chage it to some other color space.

  • Webdynpro on loading shows a black and white type of screen

    Hi Gurus.
    Don't know if anyone had this problem before.
    Some of your webdynpros on running show a black & white type of screen with no background colors. Buttons are visible, but clicking on them nothing will happen. I don't know if you all understood what I am saying. Unfortunately I cannot attach screen shot
    Basically the background becomes all white. No groups in blue color. No table lines.
    It happens only intermittently, user refreshes, and it gets okay.
    Anyone faced this problem before? If so, any solutions found for it?
    Thanks in adv.

    Hi Aishi,
    the only other time I've seen something like this, has been when I've been messing around with the portal theme  (in that particular case I was trying to apply the portal theme to a BSP which had been called dynamically in the app and was not therefore correctly picking up the theme .)
    That said - the problem was never intermittent for me then - either it worked or it didn't!
    I'd be trying to find a way in which you could replicate the issue, (potentially clear all the cookies local files etc from a user's machine) and then putting a program like HTTPWatch on to check if there were issues picking up any particular files in the user's request.
    Cheers,
    Chris

  • How do I order my print in black/white in the updated iPhoto

    I have just updated to the new iphoto in Mac OS X 10.9    I am trying to order my color print as a black & white photo.  I have gone into the edit/effects area and changed the photo to black & white.  When I click on the share/order prints icons, the photo always reverts back to the original color photo.  In the older iphoto version, I was actually able to click on order prints, then it would give me a black & white order option.  This seems to no longer work this way.  I must be missing something obvious, but I cannot seem to figure it out.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Doesn't seem to be as user friendly as the previous iphoto version.  Thank you. 

    You are right - the "Order Prints" dialog does show the B&W version as a color photo.
    That looks like a bug to me.
    As a work-around, while you are waiting for a bug fix:
    Use File > Export to export your B&W version to a folder and reimport the version.
    Then try to order prints for the reimported version. That should show the photo in greyscale only, like this.
    Send feedback to Apple, to let them know, that this needs fixing.  The form is here:   Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

  • Printing now in black & white

    I have an HP Deskjet D1520 connected to my Airport Extreme base station. It was working fine, but recently (not sure exactly when this started) color printing has failed. Now colors print only as black & white (like faint greyscale).
    I connected the printer directly to my laptop and printing is fine, so it seems to be an issue with going through the Airport Extreme. Could this have been caused by a firmware update on the base station? It looks like it's running version 7.4.2.
    Any suggestions would be helpful.

    I am pretty sure I have run across this issue before. Unfortunately, I cannot find the citation right now. If I remember correctly, HP considers this normal operation.
    For the DeskJet D1520, try the DeskJet D1400 driver from the HPIJS package found at _http://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/OpenPrinting/MacOSX/hpijs_.

  • How find Black & White of PDF page

    Hi Andi,
    I need to find color used in the PDF page. I need to isolate Black & White(Monochrome) PDF page from color PDF page.
    I have found two methods, but both are very complicated & has less accuracy in identifying Black & White(Monochrome) PDF page.
    1)Rendering PDF page to bitmap. And looping through the color of the bitmap. The Bitmap obtained after rendering have shades of gray color due to this black & white PDF page is identified as color pdf page.
    2)Looping through the PDEElement of PDF page. Getting color space. Resolving color space to get RGB color value. This method is complicated as there too many colorspace which pdf supports. Getting RGB color value from all the color space is a difficult task.
    It will be gr8 help if u suggest any simple method to identify Black & White PDF page in PDF document.

    If you do not want to programm anything you can just use the plugin part of the itexttoolbox. Tools->Various->IdentifyColorPages.
    For java webstart installation go to
    http://itext.ugent.be/library/itext.jnlp
    It uses the first approach you described.
    Best regards
