Creating Content that will be shown a 3D plasma TV

I have a client who is interested in having their content be in 3D(wearing glasses, not 3d like toy story).
I have never done this before and I have a list of questions that I was hoping people may help me with.
1. I know AE has a "3d glasses" filter and I fooled with that. But lets say I have a basic text, and I want it over a background, how do I make that so it appears 3d?
2. When I am done, can I just export a quicktime movie out and burn it in Encore as a Blue-ray or do I need something special.

Here's a whole bunch of information about stereoscopic 3D in After Effects:

Creating text that will scroll in a text frame

I have tried to create text that will scroll in a text frame by following this:
Create your text frame including any inline buttons or hyperlinks. Make note of its width and then draw the frame you wish to hold that content. Make it about 5-7 pixels wider than the text frame and align the two, top and left. Cut the text frame to the clipboard and choose the placeholder frame. Choose edit>past into.
With that frame select, from the overlay creator panel choose pan and zoom and check the pan only option.
When I get to the overlay creator panel and choose pan and zoom, it asks me to select a cropped image. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, I am not creating any of the content on the pasteboard.
Please help. thanks

is the parenting frame cropping the inline text frame?

Creating button that will take you to table of contents pages

I'm using CS4 and have created a 30 page document with a table of contents (TOC) on page 2. On my master page I have previous and next page buttons that have rollover states. These work.
I want a button in the middle that will take you to the TOC page.
I have tried creating a text anchor on page 2 and setting the action of my button to go to anchor but in the button window the text anchors area is grayed out and has 'none' in it.
I also tried to have a button with a rollover state just for show (no action assigned) and putting an invisible hyperlink on top of the button. The link goes to page 2. This only works on the areas where my hyperlink does not overlap the button.
Is there a way around this?

Hi Sparkgapper,

Hello All,
I'm currently running into difficulty with my Outlook Form. I have been tasked with creating a routing form within Outlook that will replace a pdf form. The form/email will be routed from 1 person on done the line as each person has inforamtion to eitehr
enter or to makr that they have viewed the form/email. I'm trying to create a field that would allow each individual to place their name in the apporatie box from either the Outlook contact list or create a dropdown list with the individuals in
my department. When I tried to create a contact field it would duplicate whomever first sent the email. Any and all help is very welcomed.

Not possible in my opinion. You may try a code solution.

What are best exports settings for project that will be shown on large screen?

I'm working in AE CS6 and am preparing a two-minute video using type animations and some still cartoons and some still photography. The client will eventually show it through his computer on a large screen to a group of people. What's the best settings in the render queue to output this so it shows pristinely? I'm thinking a Quicktime movie output as Animation but I really don't know. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Animation Quicktime is NOT the way to go. This codec will only playback in real time reliably on a super computer. You need to pick a good distribution format that will stick around. PICK H.264. Read on...
If by large screen you mean a really big TV then make a standard HD 1920 X 1080 comp at 29.97 fps and render using the Adobe Meida Encoder. You can put your Animation Codec Quicktime in the AME if you like but I think there are better DI formats (Digital Intermediate). Pick h.264 as the format and pick the Vimeo or YouTube HD preset and jack the data rate up to 40 or even 50 and enable Multi Pass rendering. You will have a file that will playback smoothly on any modern system, even from a newer iPad or other tablet.
If you mean a 4K display then use the same technique but create your 4K composition using the standard 4K display size of 3640 X 2160 and use the YouTube 4K preset.
You can jack up the data rate for that preset also but don't go above 50.
This will give you a file that is technically as good or better than you would get with a fiber connection to a 4K broadcast. How the project looks when played back will depend on how good you are at choosing the right techniques for your animation and color grading taking into account the color space you're working in, the gamut of the display, and the motion of animated elements as it relates to frame rate. (Hint: that's why I said to choose 29.97 as the frame rate because animating illustrations and text to look good on a big screen is a lot more difficult at 24 fps than it is at 29.97 and you don't need 60fps because what you gain in the elimination of judder you loose in the addition of compression artifacts when the data rate is the same.)
One last piece of advice. Obsessing about the quality of your playback format to achieve the MAXIMUM result is for the most part a huge waste of time and energy. Get the color right and tell the story well and avoid juddering animations and you'll blow the audience away even at 10 or 12 Mbps HD. 90% of all quality issues in rendered animations that I've seen are issues of design and animation technique, not issues of rendering with the wrong settings.

Creating animations that will import into FCP

What are some program options for creating and manipulating objects like squares, rectangles and circles that will be used for creating animations to be imported into protions of FCP projects. The final output will be DVD's. Director MX2004 works very well for creating the animations, however when converted to a QT movie and imported into FCP, the animations look like a copy of a VHS tape. (Export settings were component video.) The animations are not acceptable when viewed on both a TV and NTSC monitor. Is anyone successfully using Director for such an application? I would certainally appreciate any suggestions.

I agree about the material that is coming out of Director being the problem.
The fundamental questions is "is Director capable of this kind of output?"?? I was hoping someone would tell me "this is how I did it" or "It is impossible using Director". All I know is there was some animation from Director in at least top movie a couple of years--I don't remember its name. So someone was able to get animation out of Director good enough for the film industry!
As for other questions you posed. The vector graphics I need can be created and manipulated as I need in Director. The whole project could be done in Director and outputed as a cross platform "projector" from a Mac or PC version of Director. However, there some issues with keeping things "in time" using Director. Using Director for the whole project is "plan B".
With regards to your other questions. In short, I want to animate some very detaliled shop type activities that are hard to video and understand. The animations will compliment the video and will show/simplify concepts needed to learn particular shop skills.
I want to make and market a series of DVD on these shop activites. Yes I know it is not a small project. I have been working on problems relating to everything from copyrighting to the insurance/liability aspects for several years. I also have the hardware & software to make DVD "demos" and examples to "show and tell". Now I need some help getting the stuff to do what I want/need!
FCP is the best option for "putting together" audio, video and amimation before making a DVD.
Thank you for your input.

Creating hyperlinks that will open in a new window

I am an avid user of Aperture and iWeb. I love the interface of the Aperture web layouts, but I am also trying to link them to my iWeb site. The easy thing would be to have my iWeb links just open my Aperture photo galleries in a new window so that viewers of my galleries can just close that window instead of hitting the back button a thousand times. How can I do this???
If this isn't possible, any other suggestions? I can't seem to insert a link into my Aperture galleries to link viewers back to the main gallery pages.

You need to add the expression target="_blank" to your published hyperlinks. The format of the hyperlink would be...
[a href ="xyz.html" target="_blank"] but the [...] needs to be replaced with <...> in order to get the HTML to work
Here is an example for my own website...
===>www.DirtDoog.com<===</a>
This change to your hyperlinks will need to be made to the published HTML files that iWeb generates. If you have just one or two links that need to be changed, you can probably do it by hand. Otherwise, you will appreciate programs like MassReplaceIt (http://www.hexmonkey.brownhost.com/) that can execute batch processes on an entire folder of HTML files at a click of the mouse.

Creating graphics that will reveal a background image underneath?

I have a background image in my DW doc and I'm creating an interface in FW and some of the images I want to display as semi-transparent so the background shows through. I select the image, select transparency and lower it, save as a png32, though when I preview through DW the graphic doesnt display at all.
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.

My file consists of different slices. I tried clicking on both the graphic (a rectangle shape) and the slice, and I still do not see an Alpha Transparency option. There is a Transparent checkbox option in the Property Inspector, though it is greyed out.
Thanks.

Having stopped audio with a swf inside a sidelet can someone create a swf that will resume the audio

Ok, rick is going to post the fla of this file and I will
post the swf. Basically this is all about having a slide that has
audio running all the way through and enabling the user to roll
over a sidelet and have the video and audio stop playback.
At present, the max you can achieve is, to stop video. The
audio keeps going and of course everything gets out of
sync. Rick has create a swf that you input into a sidelet (
after having imported your image or video ) which stops the audio.
Fantasitc. Unfortunatly he was not successful in creating a swf
that will resume the audio.
So there is the mission. To create something that will resume
the audio, be it a swf inside the sidelet or something else.

Hi there paul. Am I right in thinking that your code will
mute the audio. In my situation this would cause problems becasue
you would roll over the sidelet - the audio would go silent and
when you rolled off, or resumed the audio, it would have been
playing so again the video and audio will be out of sync.
Rick - rather than another swf which would activate the audio
and video when you roll off the sidelet ( while that is the perfect
solution ) what about looking at a button the user can press to
resume things, maybe Im wrong but that sounds a little easier.
( however for all those reading this that is not really the
solution I am looking for, what Im looking for is the above
solution where you can just roll off and on and so on )

Creating zones that are on different subnets

Hi,
I am running Solaris 10 11/06 with zones. I had no issues creating zones with the same default router as the global zone. However, I want to create zones that will live in the DMZ, on a different subnet. I have looked around and the only thing I could find was to add the new subnet in the defaultrouter on the global zone.
192.168.69.1 default route for global and zone 1
10.10.6.1 default route for zone 2
cat /etc/defaultrouters
192.168.69.1
10.10.6.1
I did that, rebooted, and created the new zone. The new zone did not get the default route set. It was also not set in the global. The only way I can get this to work, is run :
route add default 10.10.6.1
I have created an init script to add this route at bootup on the global zone.
Is this the right way to handle multiple subnets on a container host? Do I need to add the network in ./etc/netmasks?
Thanks,
David

If you are stuck with update 3, this is a workaround we did on our system.
create a startup script /etc/init.d/zone-defaultroute
#!/usr/bin/sh
#######START######
/usr/sbin/ifconfig interface:x addif zone2_ipaddress netmask up
/usr/sbin/route add default ip_router_zone2
/usr/sbin/ifconfig interface:x removeif zone2_ipaddress
/usr/sbin/zoneadm -z zone2 boot
#######END########
link the file to rc3.d
ln -s /etc/init.d/zone-defaultroute /etc/rc3.d/S90zonedefaultroute

Your best bet on getting a cogent answer is to post to the Unix forum under OS X Technologies.

How to Use Multiple iDevices with One Computer

Our family has 1 Apple id. My sons received many itunes gift cards. Can I set up sub-accounts under my id? If I create new ids, will they lose access to the content purchased under wmy id?

Our family has 1 Apple id with 2 itouches, 1 ipad and 1 iphone. My sons received several itunes gift cards. Can I set up sub-accounts under my id and deposit their gift cards into them (like a bank account)? If I can't, it seems that I will have to keep track of each of their purchases until they reach the limit of their gift cards, before they go over. This makes no sense. If I have to create new ids, will they lose access to all the content purchased under my id?

- You can't create subaccounts.
- You can create new account(s). The media on the iPod is still usable. It does create more work when updating apps since yo have to sign into the account that purchased them to update them. If you have apps purchased from more than one account that need update you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased with one account.
- To change accounts for purchasing go to Settings> Store (or Settings.iTunes and App store depending upon the iOS) and sign out and sign in with different account.

Is it possible to create a DVD of photos that will play on a television?

Is it possible to create a DVD of photos from iPhoto that will play on a television?

Yes. You'll need a video DVD authoring application like iDVD and an external optical drive. I suggest a 3rd party optical drive as the Apple Superdrive is limited to USB 2 which has rather slow through put. Get one with USB 3 or FW.
Export a slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p. Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Or open iDVD, select a theme, create a slideshow in iDVD and add the photos from iPhoto via the Media Browser in iDVD.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.
There are simpler (in features) video DVD authoring applications available from the App Store.
