Edges of video seen when using Lower Third

Hello All,
When I use the lower third, and have the crop wide open on the left and right, I see a sliver of video on the outside of the Lower Third bar. Is there a way to adjust this? Do I need to use a matte and text rather than Lower Third?
Thank you.
DG

I thought I'd provide a little follow up. As I was trying to figure out why my STP export wasn't working right, I stumbled into a setting under sequence that led to this problem. My sequence setting was accidently set to NTSC DV 3:2. When I switched to NTSC 4:3, the screen tightened up ever so slightly, and the gap on the edges of the bar disappeared. Also, the resolution of the type and graphics within the Lower Third when from jagged to perfect!

  • How to add picture over video to create a lower third look

    Here's one I've not been able to deduce. After creating a small JPEG label, I want to place it on the lower portion of the video as a title, but one that has been custom made. In this case the logo needs to cover the lower right of the screen. Therefore, I need to bring this photo over into IPhoto, import it into the video, and be able to manipulate it to sit exactly where I want it to go. Picture in Picture doesn't work because that deals with two video elements. Crop doesn't work partially for the same reason but also because the crop box won't go that small or that wide.
    This lower third logo needs to be able to stay over the entire length of the video (as in this case) or be able to fade in and fade out at certain times.
    Not sure if IMovie has this capability, and would sure appreciate the tips. Thanks.

    If you upgrade to iMovie 09, you could do this with the cutaway feature.
    You would create the lower third title in Photoshop or the like. Make the slide in the same dimensions as your iMovie project and the same aspect ratio. Set the lower third title exactly where you would want it on the frame. Use PNG not JPEG so you can make the only thing showing your title. Everything else in the frame should be alpha-channel transparent.
    Drag this over your video in iMovie 09 and select Cutaway.

  • Flash video artifacts when using discrete graphics

    So I have a 2011 MacBook Pro with Intel and ATI graphics. When watching flash video (YouTube), I have weird artifacting going on when using just discrete graphics. While using Intel graphics, the video usually plays fine, just a little choppy. I am using gfxCardStatus to switch between them. Is this a flash bug or something else? I've added an image to show what I'm talking about.

    I don't see any evidence that you used Dreamweaver to insert
    the
    player. Normally, when you insert Flash with Dreamweaver, it
    inserts
    code I can readily identify. Did you use GoLive?
    The pages you show are consipicuously missing the
    <object> code and
    the JavaScript that DW uses.
    And I don't see any differences in the players. The pages
    both link to
    files named flvplayer.swf (in different folders) with the
    same look and
    the same file size. I am late in this thread, so maybe I
    missed the
    boat.
    Anyway, I don't know if this would make a difference with
    that player,
    but one page uses a relative link to the .flv, while the
    other page
    uses an absolute link, including
    http://. See if changing that one to a
    relative link helps.
    I only watched about a minute from both pages and, although
    872 Kpbs
    for the video track is VERY high, I did not see any glitches.

  • U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

    u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

    Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
    Try the following:
    Repair permissions & restart.
    Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
    QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
    Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.

  • Why wont Youtube videos load when using Firefox 3.6.3?

    I've been having issues with youtube when using firefox, the video doesnt load or show up for that matter its just a black screen where the video should be and on the bottom left hand corner of Mozzilla it says "done" I've tried everything, I updated java and flash but nothing seems to work. What can I do? I know I can use other web browsers but I really want to fix this
    == URL of affected sites ==
    www.youtube.com

    There are a few reasons why youtube might be broken:
    * An extension may be causing the problem: try the steps at [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * ''Bad item stored in the Browser Cache'': Follow the steps at [[How to clear the cache]].
    * Firewall software is blocking some resources on the page: see [[Firewalls]]
    If none of this works, let me know if Flash video from other sites work. Here are a few you can try:

  • Acer S7 screen flickers during videos and when using Microsoft Office Screen is white

    Had my Acer S7-392 for about 9 months and it has a problem that i've not been able to resolve. - When on some websites or watching video's (embedded into the website like on Facebook) the picture flickers and is unwatchable. If you scroll so that a little of the video is offscreen the problem stops.- Also when using microsoft office programs the screen just goes white and I can't do anything without closing the programs via task manager. I've made sure I have all the right drivers. Intel sends me to the Acer website for the drivers and I have the most up to date of those. I have phoned microsoft and they say that it is not them and even when remote accessing the machine they cannot see a problem. I'm sure its a graphics problem as other than these two irritating issues the machine works fine. Many thanks in advance for anyones help.

    Hi, I don't own an external monitor. I can take the laptop to work and use one there. If I do that and the same problem happens what does that mean? If the problem is not repeated on the monitor what does that also mean? If I can't use a monitor what else can I do? Thanks. Tom

  • Sequence Settings when using low resolution video

    I am going to create a project that will consist of DV 720 x 480 and some really low resolution video from digital still image cameras.
    1. If I export as DV NTSC, what is technically happening with the video that is in my Sequence that is smaller than 720 x 480? Is it being stretched to 720 x 480?
    2. If my project did not include the 720 x 480 video, would it be better if I adjust the sequence settings to match the size of the low resolution video?
    Thanks.

    #1: If you make a 720x280 DV NTSC sequence and insert the low-res video, how it appears in the canvas will be how it appears upon export.
    #2: Depends on your intended output.

  • I'm working in Photoshop CC 2014. Why is it that when I use the refine radius tool...edges become pixelated? When using Edge Detection and sliding the radius bar I get the same result.

    I used the quick selection tool to get this far...I will be showing the result of adjusting the Radius slider...
    At 5 px you can already see the changes to the edges...
    And at 30 px...

    I've looked at this several times now, but it has me stumped! I just can't think of circumstances that might cause this.  The firs thing to try when things are properly weird is to reset Preferences (I don't think there is a reset option for refine Edge).

    Mac — Hold down Shift Cmd Opt immediately after starting Photoshop

    How about rephrasing your original question as I find it confusing and likely incomplete.
    People will try to help but they must understand your question.

  • HELP!! Video Hesitating When Using Encoder CS5

    The video can be viewed at: http://www.rcpilottraining.com/test.html . It hesitates and is not smooth like say YouTube videos. I will also be doing camcorder videos and need them to be smooth when encoded to Flash. I have done a video of my settings at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG4BSQULMV4.
    How do I get the video to be smooth whether it is from a camcorder or recorded from my screen after being encoded in CS5??? The videos are smooth when they are in thier .AVI format, but hesitate when converted to FLV using the Adobe Media Encoder CS5.

    Here is a quote from wikipedia on VBR:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_bitrate
    Variable bitrate (VBR) is a term used in telecommunications and computing that relates to the bitrate used in sound or video encoding. As opposed to constant bitrate (CBR), VBR files vary the amount of output data per time segment. VBR allows a higher bitrate (and therefore more storage space) to be allocated to the more complex segments of media files while less space is allocated to less complex segments. The average of these rates can be calculated to produce an average bitrate for the file.
    I would say try using VBR with the 2 pass.
    Using 2 passes will let Premiere look at the video twice to analyze the footage for the best encoding.
    Plus like Stan said you never said what your Sequence settings were.
    You can use the New Item button to set them for you.
    See how that works.

  • Flash video stutters when using DW's player

    I'm banging my head against the wall with this one. I want to
    add video to my site using Dreamweavers player. But, the video
    stutters during playback. This is not an occasional hang up, it
    seems to only play every other frame or so.
    This problem has nothing to do with bandwidth or computer
    speed. This problem occures when played back locally, AND DOES NOT
    HAPPEN with another player. The problem is I do not want to use
    another player. I add a lot of video for clients and I love how
    easy it is to do that with Dreamweaver.
    Here are samples using the same video file, only different
    PLAYERS:

  • ITunes video jumps when using iPhone (wifi sync enabled)

    Hello,
    I have had many issues with wireless sync for my iPhone, but I am going to focus on one issue here:
    (When the wireless syncing is working) and I am watching a film, video podcast, TV show... anything video, on iTunes, if I open my iPhone (not physically connected to the PC) to look at something, maybe just to check the time, the video on iTunes stutters to a halt for a little while. Now, I know this has got to be to do with the iPhone checking in with iTunes wirelessly, almost a ping-negotiation-authentication thing, but is there any way to stop is messing up what I am watching? It is very annoying.
    I have Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit, iTunes 10.5.3 64-bit, (iPhone iOS 5.0.1), a 1GB Graphics Card, a Core2Duo 2.4Ghz CPU, and 4GB RAM, so it is not like I am underspec'd, and it does seem to be specifically iTunes and wifi-sync related.
    Has anyone else experienced this, and has anyone else solved this?

    Hi there,
    I also have this exact same problem and have struggled to find any solution that works, and until now have not found anyone else with the same problem.
    I would be interested to hear if anyone has any suggestions on how to resolve this.
    I have Windows 7, 32-bit, iTunes 10.5.3.3, iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1), 4GB RAM, Intel Quad 2.4Ghz, nVidia GeForce 8800 GT... so as with Buonacorsi, I don't think I'm underspec'd.
    I can confirm that if I switch off iPhone wifi syncing I don't have any problems. I keep switching off wifi syncing, but I find more and more that I want to use that function so it is quite annoying.
    Anyway, looking forward to hearing any thoughts...

  • How to download Yosemite when using a third party ssd

    I currently have a 13" macbook pro with retina display. I was running Mavericks just fine with my Transcend JetDrive 720 480gb SATA III SSD installed. When Yosemite was released, I downloaded it and everything seemed to be going well when it installed, until I restarted it. When I restarted it, it prompted me to log in with my password, and after I put in my password, it got stuck about midway through another loading screen.
    Any ideas on how to get it working? I do have a Time machine backup of right before I tried updating. As well as the beta for Yosemite on another external hard drive that works fine (it's the only way i can currently use my computer).
    I've tried rebooting, reinstalling the update, verifying/repairing disk through Utilities, and nothing worked. It keeps getting stuck at the same point after it asks for my password to log in.
    Thanks

    If the program you are using uses he Apple APIs correctly then it is easy - just look in the lower left under the media browser - Media ==> photos ==> iPhoto
    As I remember CostCo does not do this correctly and it is more difficult

  • Speeding up Video reading when using SourceReader

    Hi,
    I am using the SourceReader in my application to decode video. My application does not render the decoded video to the monitor but serves to read in the video data as a matrix which users are further manipulate. I am using the SourceReader in synchronous
    mode and I am able to process frames in a HD video at about 17 fps. This is slow because Media Player is able to play this file comfortably at 30fps.
    I am looking at how to improve the performance. Looking at the documentation, there appear to be two possible ways I can do this:
    1. Use the SourceReader in asynchronous mode
    2. Make use of hardware acceleration (DXVA) using the MF_SOURCE_READER_DISABLE_DXVA and MF_SOURCE_READER_D3D_MANAGER attributes of the Source Reader
    I am interested in Option2. This appears to require a Direct3D Device Manager and a Direct3D device. Also, the documentation states that this is recommended when decoding and rendering to a screen. 
    As I do not want video to be rendered to the display, there a Direct3D device which is like a Null Renderer or is there an option in a Direct3D device to disable rendering to a screen.
    Or is my only option for speeding up performance to operate the SourceReader in asynchronous mode?
    Any inputs will be appreciated.

  • Poor Video performance when using ver 9.0.2 of Jdeveloper

    I am using the 9.0.2 version of JDeveloper under Linux Suse 8.0. Does anyone know why when I use this product ubder this operating system the screens either do not refresh quickley or completely? I am using a 16MB video card.

    I tried this test:
    drop table foo;
    create table foo (numeric number, text varchar2(2000));
    begin
      for i in 1 .. 100000 loop
        insert into foo values (i, 'the cat sat on the mat');
      end loop;
    end;
    create index fooindex on foo(text) indextype is ctxsys.context
    filter by numeric
    EXEC dbms_workload_repository.create_snapshot;
    begin
      for i in 1 .. 100000 loop
        delete from foo where numeric = i;
      end loop;
    end;
    commit;
    EXEC dbms_workload_repository.create_snapshot;
    @?/rdbms/admin/awrrpt.sqlIn the AWR report, I can see 100,000 inserts into CTXSYS.DRV$DELETE2 and 100,000 deletes from CTXSYS.DRV$SDATA_UPDATE2. On my desktop PC these take 4.06 seconds and 2.85 seconds of CPU time respectively, compared to 5.43 seconds for the delete from the $K table. Elapsed times are almost identical to CPU times.
    That doesn't seem unreasonable to me - 70 microseconds per row updated. I added "alter system flush shared pool" before starting the delete but it made very little difference. If your figures are much worse than this then perhaps we should look further into it.
