Disable zoom effect in QT Player fullscreen playback?

I'm using Quicktime Player to present video in fullscreen mode on a separate monitor. It all works well, but I'd like to disable the "zoom" effect when the video starts and finishes -- that is, I don't want the video window to "slide" in and out of position, but just begin and end "out of nowhere", so to speak.
I don't mind hacking a plist or going through the Terminal to get there, if that's what's needed.
Curiously, I have the MP2 (DVD file) plug-in, and there's no zoom when playing a muxed mpeg file -- it just shows up, like I want. But for various reasons I don't want to use muxed files, although that suggests there's a zoom switch somewhere that can be turned off.
Any suggestions?

Nope, that won't do it.
I'm having the same problem, as I am planning to use QuickTime to play back a series of clips for an in-house CATV system, and under QT-7 there is this unacceptable zooming between clips. I have not found a solution under QT-7.
I've also found that the AppleScript commands "Enter Full Screen" and "Exit Full Screen", which were added for QuickTime 6, are missing from the AppleScript dictionary in QuickTime 7. I actually reported this one to Apple as a "bug" (#5612904, Nov. 26, 2007) and as of this morning (March 24, 2008) the bug is still "open"...that is, Apple has not declared it "non-persuasive" or "expected behavior" or whatever they do to "bugs" that are just needless whining yet.
What you CAN do (kudos to QuickTime Kirk for coming up with this one as a solution for another problem) is to run the QuickTime 6 player. That is, with QuickTime 7 installed, find a copy of QuickTime Player version 6.5.3 and give it a unique name (mine is called "QuickTime 6.app"). That allows you to run the v6 player on the v7 framework, and it actually does work. You get full-screen without the animation, and the full-screen AppleScript commands also work.

Standalone player fullscreen not working on MS Vista

Hi!
I made fullscreen standalone publish with AS2, Flash Player
9. Everything works fine on MS XP. But on MS Vista when you go
fullscreen, everything you can see is color of background (all
other content disappears).
I tried AS 2 and AS 3, dowloaded newest flash players, etc.
After some tests I noticed that when I disable "hardware
acceleration" on flash player menu it works fine on Vista too.
Can anyone help me ?
Meybe someone know the way to turn off hardware acceleration
with Action Script?
UPDATE:
I downloaded "flash_player_update6_flash9" package,
uinstalled flash player, install player/copy files form package and
it works fine now on Vista OS.

If you right mouse click on IE icon and choose "Run as
administrator" that should allow you to run the flash on the web
site. Not a nice solution, but should get you going until Adobe fix
the problem.
Note: You'll need to do this everytime you open up the
browser if you're planing on running flash. If you get sick of this
you can right mouse click on the IE icon and choose "properties"
and "advance" and check the "Run as administrator" checkbox. The
issue then is Vista's UAC will pop-up everytime you open IE. Again
not a nice solution.
I hope Adobe fix this shortly.

Is there a way to create a pan and zoom effect in a lightroom slideshow?

Is there a way to create a pan and zoom effect in a lightroom slideshow?

Nope. Be a great feature. For that I use FotoMagico after exporting JPEG's from LR.

Cannot see zoom effect

After setting up a zoom on a still image it looks fine when using "play output" in the pan/zoom tool preview window but when I return to the timeline view and play that clip it doesn't display properly. Instead it shows the initial frame with something looking like the zoom effect going on behind it.
Can I not view the actual zoom effect for a clip after setting it up and returning to the timeline view? I will be grateful for any insight.
Still image is a .psd 1613 x 1080 in a project that is HD 1080i 1920 x 1080 (so the still image has black bars at both sides--which is the way I want it)
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Thank you to all three of you (Steve, Vipul, Bill) who took the time to answer and make suggestions.
I have uploaded two videos showing : 1) view in effect preview window and 2) view in timeline.
However, I think I may have done something wrong to begin with because when I created a new project and used the same source psd file to do the same kind of zoom effect it displayed perfectly both in the effect preview window and in the timeline.
Accordingly, because I can do what I want to do--get the proper zoom effect--I'm not going mess around with that original clip anymore.
What I did wrong with the original clip, I don't know, but I think that perhaps I was trying to make the orginal clip too short and that messed up the program. The new project clip with zoom that I created was a few seconds long.

How do I create a magnifying glass zoom effect?

I'm building an image 'showcase of work' website site. Each html page features a selection of thumbnails on one side linked to a main image on the other. I am trying to find out how to create something like a zoom effect 'magnifying glass' so that the user can hover over the main image to zoom in within a confined circle or square in more detail, which moves with the mouse whilst hovering over the image. I'm sure you all know what I mean! (just in case, please see attached html file showing the page layout) (I also don't want to get too techy/over complicate things as I'm learning as I go). I want to be able to use this feature throughout the site, therefore, I guess it's another CSS rule that I need to apply...?
I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to find some sort of step by step 'how to' do this. I can't seem to find just what I'm looking for... maybe I'm not calling it by the right terminology!
I'm currently using Design Premium CS4 (predominantly Dreamweaver, Photoshop and a little Flash)
Cheers....

Hi
Magiczoom and lightbox are used for showing enlarged versions of images etc. similar to using a separate pop-up window (but without the annoyance of pop-up windows).
Anythingzoomer is a magnifying glass effect and works as such.

Problem with the zoom effect

I have five images in a row and I have added a zoom effect to
the rollover and rollout effects. What I have noticed is that the
image only zooms out when I bring the mouse out from the bottom of
the image. If I try to bring the mouse from left to right across
the images the first image zooms in but not out, and this happens
for all five images. Can anyone identify what I am doing wrong?
Here is my code:
<mx:HBox width="100%" horizontalAlign="center">
<mx:Image source="@Embed('images/bistro9-1.jpg')"
scaleX=".05" scaleY=".05" rollOver="doZoom(event)"
rollOut="doZoom(event)"
click="showImage('images/bistro9-1.jpg')"/>
<mx:Image source="@Embed('images/bistro9-2.jpg')"
scaleX=".05" scaleY=".05" rollOver="doZoom(event)"
rollOut="doZoom(event)"
click="showImage('images/bistro9-2.jpg')"/>
<mx:Image source="@Embed('images/bistro9-3.jpg')"
scaleX=".05" scaleY=".05" rollOver="doZoom(event)"
rollOut="doZoom(event)"
click="showImage('images/bistro9-3.jpg')"/>
<mx:Image source="@Embed('images/bistro9-4.jpg')"
scaleX=".05" scaleY=".05" rollOver="doZoom(event)"
rollOut="doZoom(event)"
click="showImage('images/bistro9-4.jpg')"/>
<mx:Image source="@Embed('images/bistro9-5.jpg')"
scaleX=".05" scaleY=".05" rollOver="doZoom(event)"
rollOut="doZoom(event)"
click="showImage('images/bistro9-5.jpg')"/>
</mx:HBox>
<mx:Zoom id="zoomAll" zoomWidthTo="0.06"
zoomHeightTo="0.06" zoomWidthFrom=".05" zoomHeightFrom=".05" />
public function doZoom(event:MouseEvent):void {
if (zoomAll.isPlaying) {
zoomAll.reverse();
else {
// If this is a ROLL_OUT event, play the effect backwards.
// If this is a ROLL_OVER event, play the effect forwards.
zoomAll.play([event.target], event.type ==
MouseEvent.ROLL_OUT ? true : false);

I figured out the problem I was having with my zoom effect.
It worked when I added a specific number for height and width.
Before I had a percent. Try adding a height and width number, it
worked for me.

Pan and zoom effect

Hi there,
How do you create a pan and zoom effect, like a video effect, on a picture? The technical term I believe is the Ken Burns effect from a still imagery. I know it can be done in Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro but I want to know if it is possible in InDesign (CS6). It tried the overlays option but it only created pan and zoom effect that the viewer needs to scroll. It want it to move by itself. I hope that makes sense ))
Thanks.

"Make sure that the container frame is smaller than the image. If the width or height of the frame and image are the same size, the object is treated as scrollable content."

End()'ing a zoom effect

Hey All-
I'm having a problem whenever I issue an "end()" command for
a sequence event that's running, and I have a zoom effect. Below is
a quick example. Clicking the stop button during the parallel/fade
will break it, clicking stop during the zoom works fine. Looks like
line 420 is dumping out in ZoomInstance.as. If anyone can help, I'd
appreciate it.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="vertical">
<mx:Text text="Move me" id="tomove" fontSize="20"
visible="false" />
<mx:VBox height="240" width="240"
horizontalAlign="center" verticalAlign="middle">
<mx:Box id="myBox" height="200" width="200"
backgroundColor="#80ff00"/>
</mx:VBox>
<mx:Button label="Click to start" click="mySeq.play()"
/>
<mx:Button label="Click to stop" click="mySeq.end()"
/>
<mx:Sequence id="mySeq">
<mx:SetPropertyAction target="{myBox}" name="visible"
value="true" />
<mx:Parallel target="{myBox}" duration="2000">
<mx:Fade alphaFrom="0" alphaTo="1" />
<mx:Glow blurXFrom="1" blurXTo=".8" duration="1500" />
</mx:Parallel>
<mx:Zoom target="{myBox}" zoomHeightFrom="1.1"
zoomHeightTo="0.01" zoomWidthFrom="1.1" zoomWidthTo="0.01"
duration="2000" />
</mx:Sequence>
</mx:Application>

If you get things into layers you can select "make frames from layers" and then choose animation. This should get you started anyways.

Pan and Zoom Effect, which PE version introduced it?

I like my PE 3.0 but it does not seem to offer the Pan and Zoom effect. Or am I just not seeing it. Does anyone know which later version introduced it? I know 8.0 has it, but when did it come along? The bundled version of Photoshop 5.0 it came with has a pan slide show, just discovered it.
Also, I am familiar with keyframes, would this be helpful with 3.0 pan? or do I need a newer version. Any tutorials good for this?
thank you

Pan & Zoom is available in all versions that offer Keyframing on the fixed Effects>Motion>Scale (Zoom) and Motion>Position (Pan). What might have been introduced would be Presets to do those with "one button." Do not know when those came into being. I do not use them in PrE 4, and would not in PrE 8, or 9, as I want control, and also the ability to determine what MY subject is, in an image. No amount of AI can do that for me, so a simple Preset stands about a zero chance of doing exactly what I want.
At some point, PSE added the automatic Random Pan & Zoom. Again, were I doing a slideshow in it, I would not apply such, as i would Keyframe Motion>Position and Motion>Scale in PrE.
In PrE 3, I feel strongly that you have the Effects Control Panel (accessed via Edit Effects for a Clip/still), and the ability to Keyframe both Motion>Scale and Motion>Position. This allows one adjust the parameters for those Effects over time, i.e. create a Zoom, and create a Pan. Other than the fact that you do these by hand, by eye and by mind, but with ultimate control, you have the features - just not automatically applied via a single button.
Good luck,
Hunt

Cannot disable e65 and windows media player sync

Hi
I have a Nokia E65 and i am using Nokia PC suite to sync it.
every time the phone connects i get a message from the windows media player that the phone memory is nearly full...
Any idea how I can disable the sync between media player and the mobile? i have tried doing it through the media player, but everytime i remove the phone from the devices list in media player, it comes back again.
thanks

Windows Media Player is set to automatically sync with any new player it detects. To switch it off, connect the phone (in Media Player mode); when it starts syncing cancel the sync; then go to:
'Sync' tab -> Down arrow (righ click) for more options menu -> Nokia E65 (or whatever the name of your phone) -> Advanced Options
Uncheck the 'Start sync when device connects' and you're good to go. This option can also be found under:
Options -> Devices -> select Nokia E65 (or whatever the name) -> Properties button
Hope this helps!
Ericsson T10i -> Nokia 7110 -> Siemens C45, C55, M55, M65 -> Nokia 6131, N73, N82 -> HTC Wildfire, Desire HD -> Nokia Lumia 800 -> HTC Desire X -> Lumia 820 -> Sony Xperia SP -> Lumia 925 + Sennheiser CX 500

Random pan & zoom effects?

I'm trying to create a movie from a lot of still images and I would like to have a pan & zoom effect to each image, but not the exact same to every image.
Is there a way to have a random pan & zoom effect applied to all images?

Steve: Thanks so much. As I am now just finding that I may be able to pan & zoon stills, but on my PE7 I cannot find a more button anywhere in order to select your import presets as below. Please help.
Thanks Tom
o install this set of presets in Premiere Elements:
1. Unzip this file to a folder on your hard drive
2. Open Premiere Elements' Effects and Transitions panel
3. From the More button, select Import Presets
4. Browse to the prfpset files, select them all (hold down the Shift key and select the first, then the last) and then Open
5. The presets will appear in your My Presets folder

HTML Widget zooming effect

Hi,
I am trying to make my HTML Widgets in my iBooks Author book to being fired up when user taps on a small button in the side of the book.
For that sake, I place my widget first, then I drag my small button graphic to the widget area so it becomes the poster image of it.
Problem is that when I test my book and I tap on the button, there's always a "zooming effect" of the button prior to execute the Widget itself, that enlarges the little png for a little while, so it shows the big pixel jagged image. I don't like this effect, is there any way to get rid of it?
Thank you,
Ignacio

I am just using finally this workaround:
1) Place the HTML widget as usual, but without poster image, nor Title, Background... so it is sort of a "transparent hot spot" in the book
2) I draw a figure with text inside, as a button, and organize it so it lies below this transparent widget
When I run the book in the iPad, I see a crisp, clear button that I cap tap and the Widget plays at full screen without that annoying jagged PNG zoomed in.
Same thing if you use an image button rather than a figure.
Greetings,
Ignacio

Stuck in MegaZoom-Do NOT want to disable Zoom

I'm having the problem of being stuck in mega-magnification and being unable to get the iPad to respond at all. I've read the posts on this issue, including the official Apple answer. All seem to tell us to disable zoom. I LIKE the zoom feature. I double-tap in & out quite frequently--finding it much easier than the pinch. What I don't like is being stuck in zoom.
So, is there another answer besides totally disabling the zoom feature?

No promises but a system Reset cures many ills and takes but a minute to perform:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A Reset does NOT delete apps, photos, movies, music or any other data. A Reset does NOT delete any settings for email, network access, etc.
Also, you might wish to download the 4.2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 170.

Pan & Zoom effect in FCP 6

Hello everyone,
New to this forum and struggling with FCP to perform zoom and pan effect on scren cast movies.
Can anybody give me som tips and tricks on how you best approach this or recommend a good effect for it?
Thank You

Sorry Shane, with screencast I mean that I capture with IShowU screen movements with a Mov file as finished product. In my case it is about creating a software tutorial. Once captured I do the editing in FCP and I need to zoom in or pan to certain screen areas to focus on some functionality on the screen.
I have seen the tutorial before and Thank you for pointing it out, but that illustrate only a zoom effect, but I cannot find a way on how you easaly can move the screen from left to right , for example.
