DVD Animated Menus Going Dark at Still Frame...

I'm creating menus in Motion and bringing them into DVD Studio Pro. For some reason, if I set the menus to go 'Still' at the end of the animation, the background of the animation goes dark. There is nothing but the animated menu file and some overlays (colored boxes) for buttons. But somehow, DVD Studio Pro manages to make the background of the animation go dark. Or maybe it doesn't? Maybe this is Motion's fault?
If you've seen this before, please enlighten me. Thanks!

It's a little more complex than you might think. Dave nagel wrote a good article about it way back in time (DVDSP version 2, believe it or not). Have a read here:

OT: DVD Slide Show - How to do still-frames?

I want to make DVDs containing my photos, so that I can inflict them on
family members and other unfortunates. I have not yet been able to discern
if any of the commercial packages allow for the creation of still-frame
shows - if that is the correct term to describe what I want.
I have commercial DVDs which, as extra content, contain documentary
collections of still images. These groups of images appear to be
single-frame images, and do not automatically advance -- they require the
user to press the Skip button to see the next image.
THAT's what I want to do... have the slideshow require a manual advance, so
that each photo could be viewed for as long (or short!) as desired, before
moving on to the next.
Of course, I would also want to create traditional "moving" slideshows as
well, when desired.
Can anyone advise with regard to this quest?
TIA,
Byron

Byron,
To the best of my knowledge, Photoshop Elements will not allow you to create DVDs of any sort - let alone whether it is possible to manually advance your way through a collection of stills.
PSE's primary purpose is as an image editor and since version 3 as an image organiser. Sure it has a few bells and whistles that allow you to present your images in a vareity of ways, but it is not strong in this area. Maybe that is why there isn't a great response to your orginal post.
I do know that Adobe Premier Elements allows you to create DVDs and once installed, there is an option on the file menu in organiser that allows you to send images direclty to PrEl.
Once again however, I would advise caution. Premier Elements is a cut down video editing suite, so it might be overkill for your needs and have a steeep learning curve!
Many people have mentioned a product called Proshow Gold in here. I don't use it and so cannot comment personally, but plenty of people like it and if I recall correctly, you will be able to create DVDs.
Best of luck
Mark

*Flash animation looping but going back to first frame {want to hold on last frame}

I came across this article on looping animations = http://www.quip.net/blog/2006/flash/how-to-loop-three-times
I'm a novice with flash and just trying to plug thru to get some ads up and running for the first time.
Everything worked for me in the article...the one thing I wanted to do but haven't found an answer to is how to stop the animation on the last frame after looping is complete, instead of automatically going back to the first frame??
What's the easiest/most effective way to do this?
The stop script does not work...still goes back to first frame.
For all my flash ads, I've imported an FLV video...so don't know if it's some function for flv's/video's that auto-rewinds to first frame...
Thanks so much, really appreciate any insight on this.
The sooner you can catch a minute to get back the better

Ok...not working for me - prob. b/c I'm missing something again.
What I did was...
1) Renamed the instace of replay button = "replay_btn".
[not sure if that's correct...guessed b/c you reference it in the code]
2) I placed this in the action code on action layer on last keyframe =
var loopNum:Number;
loopNum++;
if(loopNum%3==0){
stop();
your_replay_btn._visible=true;
} else {
your_replay_btn._visible=false;
3) I placed this in action code on the replay layer on last keyframe =
your_replay_btn.onRelease=function(){
this.gotoAndPlay(1);
What happens is the replay button still flashes at the end of each loop and the loops just continue...it doesn't stop at 3.
I also get this error =
Can you break down what I'm doing wrong and how to fix...need to get this out asap.
I truly appreciate your help and time so far on this...big thanks kglad!

Importing pre-made menus- still frame or moving video?

I am new to DVD Studio Pro and I recently authored a DVD that required importing a pre-made menu. The file was a psd and as 640 X 480 in size and about 180 dpi. The menu showed up in my asset window as a Quicktime picture. My question is did DVD SPro somehow convert the still image menu into a moving video file? I ask this because of two reasons...1) the menu plays back as though it's "playing" -when you click the menu's play button, the menu looks for a split second as though it pauses in much the same way a moving video image would look when you "pause it. 2.) The menu does not appear sharp- the text is not crisp as you would expect a still frame to be.
Did I import the menu wrong? I imported it as an asset. I tried to import as a template but the file is "grey" in the import box and you cannot bring it in this way. Also why did it convert the psd (photoshop file) into a quicktime picture?
Thanks!

Menus (even still menus) are moving video. DVDSP will encode them to MPEG2 for the duration of your menu's loop.
Try importing a still of 720x534 (square) pixels, not the size you used, for a 4:3 NTSC menu. DVDSP will have less scaling to do, and this might result in a sharper picture.

I have an IPhone 4 lately its been still on but the screen goes dark then after a while of trying to get it to normal again it goes back now i cant get it to go back now

Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

IPad 1 Wifi / 3G Display sometimes goes dark but iPad is still seen by iTunes

Display sometimes goes dark but iPad still works and is still seen by iTunes. It can sometimes be fixed by rapidly hitting the power button and holding the home button.
Holding the home button and then pressing the power button ALWAYS takes a screenshot and I can hear the screenshot sound.
The screenshot it takes when dark 99% of the time is of the lock screen, but sometimes it takes a screenshot of a blank screen. Perhaps that is after the screen sleeps.
The problem is very intermittent; sometimes the display will work for weeks, sometimes for minutes. Started doing this out of the blue, no drops or bumps before it started.
Seems like possibly a connector or voltage issue?
I would say power button, but the power button ALWAYS works for screenshots.
Any ideas? Right now the display is not working and I'm having problems getting it back on.
I have tried opening the iPad and do not see anything out of the ordinary.
Any inexpensive recommended vendors that can repair this if a solution is not forthcoming?

the iPad doesn't have the feature to turn off 3G service and is searching for STRICTLY 3G coverages.
We need to ASK Apple to add this as a feature to ANY 3G iPads!!

Still frames from DVD's on player

Is there anyway to capture stills from a DVD your are playing on the DVD player? Someone told me there was once, but I forget what he said to do.
Thanks!

See if the following works.

Drag the cross hairs around the "still frame."

When I power up my mac, I see the white screen and the apple icon. After a few seconds of powering up the screen goes dark. Yet I still can the mouse arrow but nothing else.

When I power up my Imac, I see the white screen and the apple icon. After a few seconds the screen goes dark. I am able to still see the mouse arrow as I move it around. But nothing else. What is the problem and how do I recover?

Try this from another user:
1. Shut the computer down by holding the power button for 10 seconds
2. Restart the computer and press shift at the same time until you see the progress bar start moving
3. Once you reach the point where your screen goes dark and you see the cursor, type the first letter of the username for your computer, then hit Enter, then type your password, then hit Enter.
4. After a moment, you should see the spinning beach ball
5. Your screen should then move on to something along the lines of "Completing OSX Installation" (I can't remember the exact wording). Let it finish. After that it should go to your normal desktop and the issue should be fixed. (If your screen goes pitch black during this process, hit the space bar. I thought it wasn't working, but the screen was just sleeping).

I have a "white screen " ,tried to hold the two buttons down and it still won't work.The screen goes dark, then comes back white.

FW 800 screen goes dark after startup

My 1.25 GHz FW 800 15" Powerbook is having startup problems similar to some things I've found here but not identical to any of them.
It boots normally to the Finder but, after about 1 minute, the trackpad and cursor stop responding and then the display goes dark and the machine goes into what seems to be a low power sleep mode -- Caps Lock light still on but display will not illuminate if keys are pressed. Machine won't wake and must be rebooted.
This happens while connected to a 65 W power adapter and with or without a battery in place. (Tested with 2 different power adapters.) Power lights on the battery indicate full charge. Connector ring shows normal green status.
If I boot from a DVD, the machine runs indefinitely without shutting down but the keyboard and trackpad don't respond and I have to use an external keyboard and mouse (both of which work normally). The fact that it runs indefinitely seems to differ from the known temperature sensor failure; the fact that the trackpad and keyboard don't work in this mode may still point to a top case problem, though.
Based on these symptoms, I assumed that I needed to replace the PRAM battery (backup battery). Unfortunately, even after carefully replacing the battery and letting it charge while connected to the power adapter for several days, the same symptoms persist. (Tested with 2 different replacement PRAM batteries although one of them may have been worn out.)
Resetting the PMU has not changed anything. Resetting PRAM has not changed anything.
This has happened in both OS 10.4 and and a fresh install of 10.4.8. Apple Service Diagnostics found no hardware problems when run for multiple cycles.
I'd appreciate any diagnoses or suggestions for repairs.
thanks,
pat

adamgritz,
I'm quoting myself from an earlier post...
"This behavior on the Wallstreet running any version of OSX is normal •IF• you have no working main battery and you also disconnect the power adapter. Once all power is lost to the power manager, OSX somehow modifies the power manager in a way that causes backlight issues. Booting back into 9.x cures the problem; in addition, this issue does not occur with 9.x and loss of power, only OSX. As long as the power manager is maintained via a charged main battery and/or power adapter, this "fix" will stick. The PRAM battery (internal rechargeable backup battery) can maintain the power manager for a few hours if fully charged (and working) without any other source of power but your 10 year old Wallstreet probably has a dead or weak battery...these powerbooks will run without a PRAM battery."
In addition, if you do not have 9.x installed, any bootable non-OSX CD will solve the problem.

IPhone 4 GOES DARK RANDOMLY FOR NO PARTICULAR REASON PLEASE HELP

I'm gonna try this. Because I'm super frustrated. Something scary is happening to my device, I got an unlocked iPhone 4 from the Beverly Center in Los Angeles 3 weeks ago. I'm now on a long business trip in Moscow Russia and all of a sudden my screen statics, a sound of plug being pulled resonates from my iPhone there is some colored lines that slowly engulf the screen and then it goes dim, dark background on the screen but there is a slight light making it all look like the phone didn't shut off, it just bugged out and is now (I guess) just dark. This all happens in a matter of a second.
Then I hold the master restart and get it back working, sometimes after a few tries, because sometimes five master resets still don't bring it back to life, the white Apple over the dark background appears but then the phone is off again without ever coming back on.
Sometimes it happens when I browse FB or I'm on Linkedin, but first it started happening after taking a picture with the Camera (After like using the Camera for almost 3 weeks prior). Every time I took a picture this happened. Then it moved to other programs, like I would turn on the music and same thing would happen, just goes dark-dim. Now its mainly happening while using applications, mainly FB, the ABBYY Card Reader (Camera) and even Virtuoso Piano. Also sometimes when I charge the phone through a plug it always does that the second I plug the cable into the phone. Same thing if I use the USB and connect it to my MacBook Pro (2008) it gives me a box saying "Couldnt connect to the IPhone 4. An involid response was recieved from the device" or something like that. After 5-10 tries it plug in and the iTunes syncs it and it works fine. I mean *** is going on, I couldnt buy and factory unlocked iPhone from the US for 6 months, and when I finally was back in the US and had the chance to do it, this CRAP happens I FEEL FRUSTRATED AND DEPRESSED ISNT THE IPHONE 4 SUPPOSE TO BE the toughest and most reliable phone ever to hit the planet? Why is this crap happening to me while I'm away?
PLUS THEIR SALES REP AT BEVERLY CENTER SHAWN MCDANIEL LIED TO ME by TELLING ME THAT THE APPLECARE+ (Which I purchased for an extra 100) will take care of even 2 trade in if (PRECICELY CRAP LIKE THIS) something happens to it. THATS PRETTY MUCH WHAT HE SAID, and then when I told him that I'll be in Moscow, OH SURE THEY HAVE A REPRESENTATIVE AND APPLECARE+ IS WORLDWIDE.
So then I call Apple Care, both the specialist and the supervisor sound like kids who were given a superjob. They don't sound like intelligent techy people and soon I understand why. Long story short, I got no clarify wether there is an official Russian Apple representative or not, I wasn't offered mail-in repair, I was only told that looks like the nearest Apple store to me is in Poland or London so I should have someone fly there (that means I won't be with my contact book for at least a week or two) or go there myself (thx I just got an $800 phone and I should get another 300-500 EURO ticket to London just to make the iPhone purchase complete) ***.
(For those who enjoyed reading so far read below, if this information is enough for you to help clue me in I'd appreciate it, if you want to read more interesting stuff read below).
Wait I can't make the story short I have to tell you - so the first lady sounds like a 16 year blond from the heart of Hollywood, and she tells me to do a backup, doesnt tell me how I should transfer my contacts that I had transferred into my phone from my old Samsung galaxy, xfer them into my MacBook at which they've never been. We did a full restore after saving a backup (hoping that my contacts would stay in tact) , then we found out the restore didnt fix it, as I went and took a picture this thing happened. Then I said the heck with it I need my old backup with the apps and my contacts, so I initiated that backup and then the contacts didnt xfer in, and I was shocked, literally, 1500+ contacts destroyed by Apple. So then she passed me on to her supervisor who was the one who didnt tell me anything substantial except simple troubleshooting procedures. He told me to go into a Russian iPhone Reseller and it will be at their full discretion wether they would exchange my phone for a new one or not comply to AppleCare since apperantly it doesnt work with them and nearest apple stores are in London or Poland. So whatever, I then afrer finishing my exactly (Skype call)
11/5/11 4:52 AM Call Ended 3 hours 12 minutes 39 seconds, I, saddened, saw that in my iTunes backups I have two more backs from an earlier time, so I backed up to one of those and it xfer everything the contacts and apps! It was just enough time for me to download ExcelContact and e-mail my contacts to my gmail before this thing started happening again. My phone works now, but this thing happens now every few hours randomly and I'm outraged.
Please if anyone experienced such a problem and could help me fix this, please help me.
Thx
P.S. I used the phone fine with ATT for a week in US when I bought it, then I used it fine for 2 more weeks here in Moscow with MTS GSM. I dunno wether my phone is CDMA or GSM? =.="

Thanks for the the information Tyler. I'm still in awe, I heard that if an LCD is over heating or the phone is over heating, there would be a warning message telling me that the device is over heating, not sure how true is this?
Nah I never dropped it yet, its too fresh and precious to me but the funny thing is no matter what care I took since the three weeks that I've had it, it still developed this problem.

Hi, Wobble Woo.
The repeated kernel panic you're experiencing is a common issue on the mid-2010 MacBook Pro 15". I have the same laptop and the same issue. It's caused by the descrete graphics card. One solution, albeit a bit disappointing and temporary, is to use an application called gfxCardStatus. It runs in the statusbar and tells you which GPU is running. You can use the application to set your laptop to use the integrated GPU only, which will put an end to your kernel panics. But if you are using applications which require heavy graphics (such as photoshop and most video games), you'll just have to count your luck.
Some other users have had their motherboard successfully replaced. Take it to an Apple Store and ask them to run a GPU test. They should find the error (a manufacture defect, it seems) and replace your motherboard, with or without warranty. I hope this helps.

Raptor

MacBook Air Boots to OS, then screen goes dark.

I have recently been working on an older style (A1304) MacBook Air with the 128GB SSD. I've been working on Mac's for years, and have worked on hundreds, but this is the first time I've ever come across this particular issue.
Liquid damaged MacBook Air. Keyboard and Trackpad mainly took the brunt of the spill. Popped off the keys, cleaned it all up. Button for the trackpad no longer works, but everything else does. Entire computer was disassembled, no other liquid was found.
MacBook Air boots up normally, and I was using it for a few hours to make sure everything was working fine. Left it to charge. Came back two hours later, and the screen was dark (but the image was still visible, as if the backlight was not on). Could see the mouse pointer moving, but backlight won't come back on. Turned off computer, turned it back on. Backlight works just fine, and it boots to the OS. Within 10 seconds of booting to OS, the screen goes dark (screen goes completely black with no image). Couple seconds later, light on the front starts to "breathe" indicating it's sleeping. Wake it back up, and image appears on the screen, but no backlight. Then it "goes to sleep" again.
Boot computer to a Flash Drive with Snow Leopard Installer and once the blue screen comes on as if the installer is just about to pop up, it "goes to sleep" immediaetly. Though, the backlight and computer will stay on in the Apple Hardware Test for as long as I want. (ran it several times, "no trouble found". Also reset the PRAM, nothing helps.
I was wondering if anyone has ever come across this. Completely baffled on whether it's a software or hardware (or combination of the both) issue I'm having.

The keyboard and trackpad reside on top of the motherboard and all the components of the computer. The keyboard and trackpad are not liquid proof. It is VERY likely that the liquid made its way to the motherboard and has affected those components. If EVER there is liquid spilled on a computer, the last thing you want to do is A. Turn it on to make sure it is working.. and B. Plug it in and charge it. Do the EXACT opposite. Unplug and turn off all power, and, if possible, remove the battery from it. The liquid itself doesnt do the damage...the damage is done when the liquid comes in contact with the circuits and shorts out the contacts and components. You could try to connect to an external monitor, if you have the means to do so, to see if it makes a difference, but it probably will not. I seems that the motherboard is not functioning correctly.

Macbook screen/display comes on and then goes dark; external monitor shows the screen in the mirroring mode; What's wrong, please. Thanks.

My Macbook (Black,August 2008...love it!) screen lights up/comes on and then immediately goes dark; the screen shows on an external monitor in mirroring mode. Any thoughts/suggestions. Many thanks.

Hi, firetiger.... i have the EXACT same problem!!! i have the same Macbook aluminum unibody screen also. I have no idea how to fix it. I'm also out of warranty and i've tried everything... resetting the pram, trying to restart in safe mode, trying to boot from a cd... .NOTHING WORKS!!! i can still control brightness itself but ive never tried attaching to an external monitor. I know everything is loaded correctly... i just don't know whats wrong. If you have any ideas.. please let me know. Also, I think apple will fix the macbook pros with a similar issue for free http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2377 but i know this doesnt apply for me. hopefully they work something out because I really love that computer!!!

Still frames not staying still...

I've had this problem on a couple of projects and have manned up to make my first post ever in a forum to try and solve it. Any help would be appreciated.
In Final Cut I made some still frames using the Modify--Make Freeze Frame command, then used a cross dissolve between the two images in the sequence. These are the only still frames in the sequence, the rest is video.
I've exported to Quicktime movie, then brought that movie into DVD Studio Pro, created the project and burned the disc. When watching the DVD all video footage is fine except for--the still images, which flicker like crazy. It is a long dissolve, nearly a minute, but I've had this problem on other projects where the freeze frame lasts only a few seconds and there is no transition used at all.
Any idea why this flickering (ghosting?) would occur with freeze frames? Know how to fix it?
Thanks in advance for any help.

If you have very thin horizontal lines you will get flickering due to the interlacing that TVs do. You can try running your stills through the de-interlace filter or the flicker filter. See which works best for you.
