CS4 Timeline problems

Hi all
New to the forum and flash but have managed to create a short animated movie - unfortunatly the duration of the movie is made as 10 fps and last for 29 seconds (290 frames in total) but when I test the movie it plays to 36 seconds. Any body know why this is happening.
Cheers for any help

I put the flv movie onto the protfolio via;
import - import video
(Before this I had used adobe media encoder to create the flv from the .mov of the movie file.)
in the import window I imported it as;
load external video with playback component.
browsed to the location of the flv file - this was in the file of where all the graphics were I used for the movie, but later changed it (via componenent inspector) to point from within my web files (where I had copyied and pasted it from the previous location).
next during the import I choose a skin.
then once in the library I placed it on the stage on its own timeline.

  • Flash CS4 Timeline Problem

    Have an iMac with Snow Leapord 4 gig memory.  When  I open Flash CS4 in Essentials Mode the Timeline appears at the bottom of the screen, however the status bar at the bottom of the timeline with the add Layers, add Folders and Trash can are missing.  I have also seen some other weird things with CS4 but this is the latest and most annoying.  Has anyone else experienced this. I tried resetting the mode and adjusting the timeline size without success.  Has any one else experienced this problem.  Any insight would be appreciated.
    Ron

    Many thanks for your reply!!1
    I think I mentioned I was having other problems.  One of which was when I tried to select a frame on the timeline the all frames were selected.  Well, I found an option in the preferences for Timeline - Span Based Selection -  Somehow this was turned on.  Turned it off and so far everything seems ok.  Don't know if this was the problem, but at this point everything seems to be operating properly.  Thanks again for responding.

  • CS4 Crashing Problems - Questions

    Just curious in regards to all of these "CS4 Crashing" problems.
    1) Before updating to Snow leopard, did you people do due diligence by at the very least checking the S.M.A.R.T. status of your drives and do a Permission Repair first BEFORE updating?
    2) Did you make a clone of your working perfectly Leopard disk, or at least do a current (minutes before) Time machine backup?
    3) Did you check first which 3rd party extensions such as those by Unsanity (FontCard), YouControl(Font), Growl, etc. that will NOT play nice with Snow Leopard yet until they are updated (if ever?)... and pre-update delete them?
    4) Did you check to make sure that all of your fonts have been disabled and those that are NOT specifically from Apple, are removed from the User Font folders... and NOT set to load at startup?
    Now after all of that... did ya still "freely" and without a gun to your head, update to Snow Leopard... a brand spankin' new (dot.zero) OS release and expect absolutely NO bugs: small, large or just inconvenient for the time being?
    And now your whining here?... and complaining to Apple?
    Have any of you considered reverting to your clone of Leo 10.5.8 until certain issues (yours) have been fail-safely fixed?
    For the record, I did a straight-up SL update on a 2.16 CoreDuo MBP, and a 2008 8-core MacPro with NO problems! Everything working fine in 32-bit and 64-bit (MacPro), including even FreeHand under Rosetta.
    NOTE: check your fonts!!! Whenever something crashes here or at any of my clients unexpectedly, font and/or font cache corruption has been the main culprit, now for over 20 years(!)

    Maybe it will cause someone to think before starting another "Adobe or Apple must die or fix this" thread. It grates on the nerves... considering most should "fix" their expectations, upgrade habits, and most of all, the area between their ears first... BEFORE posting.

  • CS4 Export Problem

    I have an external hard drive to which I export my encoded CS4 video files once I have finished editing.  The problem is that, in doing so, space seems to be used also on my C drive.  I need to find and delete these files on my C drive once my PP project files are rendered to my external drive.  I have looked in temp files but they not there.  Can anyone advise me on this?

    That's done it S.V.  Many thanks!

    If you're using Vista you might be making the same mistake as me. Go edit>preferences>media, hover the mouse over the media cache files location (i.e. C:\yadayada) and TYPE that into the bar at the top of the my computer. Don't click through and try and find it, TYPE it like you would an internet address in a web browser.

  • Premiere CS4 timeline goes black - refresh problem?

    Every time I try to edit in premiere pro CS4, after a while (or straight away) the timeline goes black. Everything around the clips (not including the clips) goes black and I can see anything on the timeline except the clips. If I move the timeline off the screen and back on it refreshes normally? This problem in intermittent by persistent. I have done all the updates for premiere and my graphics card.
    My system is:
    OS: Win7 64Bit
    Intel core i7 920
    6GB Ram
    ATI HD5770 1GB GDDR5
    C drive is 200GB SATA1
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I had an almost identical problem.
    Windows 7 64bit
    Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1
    Cineform neoscene
    Nvidia GT240 (latest driver 257.21)
    Premiere pro would work fine until I loaded up internet explorer, then the timeline would go black as soon as I dragged a clip around. I needed to completely log out of windows to get the timeline visible again after moving a clip.
    I switched to firefox, but that had the same effect.
    However I then tried the seamonkey browser and premiere now works fine!
    Hope this helps.

  • Bridge CS4 Server problem- slide show not loading

    Hi
    I have created a slide show in CS4 and emdedded the index code in my gallery page, created in Dreamweaver CS4. I have used an iframe within a DIV tag.
    Preview works fine in both Chrome and IE. However, once uploaded to Server, all that can be seen is a grey screen.
    I have contacted the server Heart Internet to see if they can help but as yet no idea. 
    I was just wondering if anyone has come across this before and if so, is there a quick fix I can implement.
    I am basic but ok with HTML, and can insert code, if given it, but no good at the problem solving side of code writing.
    Any ideas would be really appreciated
    Thanks

    It sounds as if for some bizarre reason, the transition is causing the player buffer to empty out.
    This happens on certain - usually older - players when sequential cells are set as non sequential in compiling.
    (I had this one bite me - hard - recently, although from a different application).
    Best way to check this is to go get a copy of the excellent PGCEdit (shareware) and load the compiled disc.
    http://download.videohelp.com/r0lZ/pgcedit/index.html
    Find the main timeline for the slideshow, and double click it. (see attached image)
    The "chapters" will be listed, and we need to see these ticked as sequential playback, or seamless.
    If there is no tick, add one between each track, save the disc & reburn with IMGBurn (freeware/Donationware)
    http://www.imgburn.com/
    For some reason, certain chipsets seem to create a gap when transitioning a chapter marker on a timeline with a single sequential audio stream when the chapter is incorrectly set to non seamless.
    This may not be what is happening here, but I think it is worth a look.

  • Premiere Pro  CS4 After Effects CS4 Redraw problem

    Greetings. I can't quite figure out how to research this problem. I have included some pics to the
    screen grabs to illustrate my point.
    The problem is, I have a redraw problem with all Adobe programs that have a timeline in them. Flash, After Effects, Premiere Pro;
    I am using a 8800GTS card with the latest drivers from nVidia's website.
    As you can see I have multiple mouse images that remain on the screen when I scrube the time line ( in all adobe programs). There is also another really weird problem; when I open a quicktime movie with PPro CS4 open the audio runs at half speed or slower. When I close PPro the audio reverts back to normal speed?
    I am using: Borris CC6 Boris 9.2 Boris Red 4.3, Genarts Sapphir Effects, Pixelan Spicmaster 2.5, and Hollywood FX 5 plugins.
    Any light on the subject would help or if you could point me in the right direction I'll do the research.
    Thanks for the help.

    assuming the problem is only in adobe apps and not anything else right?
    Hmm...
    Well, you can try some of these things
    trash the prefs and clean media cache, though I doubt it will help you in this case
    try with a new project and see if the problem persists
    uninstall ALL plugins and see if that corrects the issue (clearly HFX5 was never meant for CS4 at a minimum and I'm not a fan of old boris stuff - very buggy)
    uninstall and reinstall the Adobe apps and see if that fixes the issue.  If it does add back in CS4 compatible plugins only one at a time and see if the problem returns.
    also what os are you using and how much memory do you have?  could you be running out of memory on a 32bit os?

  • Premiere CS4 - AEP problem

    I have recently upgraded from Production Premium CS3 to CS4 to make use of the batch render facility in Premiere. I have a rather large CS3 project that opens fine (OK some of the garbage mattes seem to have moved, but I can fix them).
    My main problem is that this project contains 100s of AEP files (short keyed out green screen clips). These are all fine in After effects, and all show in the project fine. Appear on the timeline and appear fine in the source monitor. But will not appear on the main stage view and do not appear in the render.
    Does anyone know a fix for this? Am I missing something so blatently obvious I need to hang my head in shame. Or are there any other work arounds I can do. Im losing sleep over this.
    I'm running Premiere CS4 4.2.1, AE CS4 9.0.2 on Mac (OS 10.5.8) 2.66 quad core with 8GB of 1066 mhz DDR
    Many thanks in advance.
    Paul

    A couple of things you can try:
    Import the CS3 project into a new CS4 project, rather than just opening it.
    Re-import the AE comp(s) via File | Adobe Dynamic Link from inside the new CS4 project.
    Wait a while and see if the Keylight comps eventually show their video.  Dynamic Link is sometimes slower than you think it should be.

  • H264 MPEG AVI import video timeline problem

    Hi,
    I am a new user of Adobe Premiere CS4.  I am having a problem of importing H264 MPEG AVI files.  I set my project to be HDV 720p 30fps.  I grabbed Gspot and it has identify my video is a H264 codec name H.264/MPEG-4 AVC.  When I import the video I setup the timeline and when I do a playback review in the far left window (default setting).  It play the vido super fast, but the audio is playing normally.  I zoom in the timeline and it seems to think each second is one frame.  So it is playing the video like 30x speed(not 100% on how much faster, just lot).  What am I doing wrong?
    After playing around some more, it looks like the video are keyframes as the time jump from frame to frame is huge, not what it look like in a WMP.  Did I somehow imported and it stripped out the deltas?

    I looked at the thread and tried it, I get this error.

  • CS4 Timeline Video Running Double Speed

    Hi everyone!
    Maybe someone knows where the problem lies...
    I add a video clip (.m2v /mpeg) to encore cs4 and a ac3. I create a timeline with these streams. If i press play to preview the timeline to add chapters, the video is running double speed and is over after half of the time. Audio plays normal.
    If i open the same project with the same settings in CS3 it works properly.
    Does anyone know where the problem lies?
    Info:
    WinXP SP3 pro
    thanks in advance!

    Could you check with
    Bitrate Viewer
    and/or

  • Dreamweaver CS4 interface problems in Win 7 Ultimate 64bit

    I'm experiencing some frutratingly bizzare behavior with Dreamweaver CS4 and Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and I'm hoping someone might now how to fix the issues.
    1) When creating a new site by selecting "Site/New Site..." or "Site/Manage Sites..." the fields for selecting "Local root folder" and "Default images folder" always select a directory above where I tell it.
    For example if I tell it to use "E:\ClientFiles\Client\website\" it always selects "E:\ClientFiles\Client\". and the only solution is to write in the proper directory manually.
    2) Possibly related to the above targeting problem. In a document, even an new empty xhtml, if I place an image on the page and double click on that image to replace it with another I get the dialog box for selecting the new image, but on pressing "OK" nothing happens. The same thing occurs if I select the fodler icon in the properites at the bottom. The only methods that work are either deleting the placed image and then placing a new image or deleting the "Src" info in the "properties" panel and then clicking the folder icon next to "Src".
    You can see how this would get frustrating after a while.
    I've tried a complete reinstall of CS4, deleting the Dreamweaver cache file, and I get the same behavior on my laptop which is also running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
    Any help would be appreciated. I've submitted this behavior to Adobe support as well in hops that it can some how be resolved.

    Both are known issues in DW on Win 7 and Vista. It's not just 64 bit.
    Until Adobe issues a patch, the workarounds you describe are the only solutions for the timebeing.
