Editing Image Sequences/Videos

Hello. I've downloaded the trial of Photoshop CS6, and imported image sequences and video files. But whenever I use a filter or make another edit, it only affects the frame currently being displayed. Is there any way to apply a change to all frames of the sequence or video at once? Thank you!

Hi. This forum is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop. I'm moving your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum for specialized attention to your situation.

CS5 Extended - Image Sequence Video Output Format

Hi,
     I've recently installed CS5 Extended and was experimenting with the creation of a small video from a sequence of still images. There are eighteen images in the sequence and I seem to be able to open the files properly. By selecting the Image Sequence box in the Open popup, I assume it will retrieve all of the images.
     What I can't figure out is how to output any resulting video that is created and most importantly, what format it will be. I would like to have a format that can be used on any PC, such as .avi or .wmv.
     I'd appreciate some help with this.
Thank You...Vince

In your menu use File>Export>Render video
From here you can specify which format and codec you want to use. It requires quicktime to export.

Managing and editing image and video files on the go

I am looking for the best solution to store, manage and edit pictures and videos taken with external devices (DSLR camera and GoPro primarily) using my iPad as an interface and not requiring a computer. I was initially thinking that some sort of portable hard drive was the ticket, however, the Apple Lightning to SD reader might be an option as well. In any case, I don't want to use my iPad for storage, but only to access files from the storage medium. Here are the requirements I am looking for:
Ability to view and manage (including delete) the files from the storage device using my iPad
No requirement to load or sync the files onto the iPad to be able to view and delete the files
Easily be able to select and transfer specific files to my iPad to work with and publish
Ability to export edited files from my iPad back to the storage medium once I am done working with it (I could work around this one if necessary)
Whatever I end up with should be small enough to easily pack and transport when I am travelling
What would the best device be for me?
I have looked at the new Hyperdrive iUSBport HD as one possibliity, but I am not very familiar with their devices. I guess my other option is to buy several SD cards and use the Apple Lightning to SD reader, but I'm not certain it will accomplish everything I am after. Especially in the later case I would really need to be able to view and delete files (video in particular) that I do not want. Any advice on the above devices or other devices that I should look at?
Thanks,
Matt

Have a look at this.

5K Retina iMac can't open Image Sequence quicktime 7 Pro and 10.10 Yosemite

Brand new and fully loaded iMac 5K crashes every time I attempt to open an image sequence in Quicktime 7 Pro, a feature that is not available in Quicktime X. I have retried, re-installed, and still issues across the board.
Someone please fix this...
System Specs:
OSX 10.10
iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014)
4 GHz Intel Core i7
32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
AMD Radeon R9 M295X 4096 MB
Quicktime 7 Pro 7.6.6 (1709)
Quicktime Player 10.4
To replicate, just open quicktime 7 pro, File>> Open Image Sequence, and then load a camera card full of photos and just wait for it to crash.

If so, please send me a screen shot of your quicktime components folder, maybe you have a codec that I don't.
Also have some legacy codecs turned back on (but Photo-JPEG as used to store image sequence files is not one of them and remains on by default under Yosemite).
Also using JPEG compressed photos from a 24 MP Nikon but restricting resolution to 2560x1920 (4:3), 2560x1707 (3:2), and 2560x1440 (16:9) with max number of photos limited to 2^16-1 (65535).
Also posted a screen capture of my quick test to ensure the QT 7 Pro "Open Image Sequence" option was still working. (Video may be a bit sluggish as I was using QT X to screen capture my use of QT 7 Pro to open an image sequence and forgot that I was also simultaneously still encoding How to Train Your Dragon 2 for my iTunes library.) [OPEN IMAGE SEQUENCE VIDEO]
You may wish to check your QT 7 PLIST file as a corrupted file can sometimes cause the app to crash.

Support for RAW Video and Image Sequences

Being a stills photographer who moved into video some years back, I'm very interested in the direction Lightroom is going with regards to video support. I haven't tried it yet but I wondered if LR4 supports Red R3D files? And would it perhaps support other future RAW video formats from the likes of Canon and Sony? It would seem like the perfect application, perhaps intergrating with Premiere in a similar way to RedCine with FCP. Be great to be able to log footage, orginize it into bins and do basic colour correction in LR, edit the project in Premiere and re-touch in After Effects.
Another task LR would seem ideally suited to is combining image sequences into timelapse video. Shooting timelapse as an image sequence on a DSLR is pretty much standard practice these days; and I've used LR to colour correct, crop and scale my sequences (before fitting them together in Quicktime) for years now. It would be fantastic to be able to preview the clip and export the video (as DPX, ProRes or DNxHD) from within Lightroom.
These are obviously fairly long term wishes. In the short term though, the video features are pretty much useless to me without support for exporting ProRes and DNxHD files. With this LR becomes a powerful asset manager that could be used to collect together footage from multiple sources/codecs and transcode it all for editing. As mentioned in a previous thred, XML support would make it even more useful in this context. There is definitly a gap in the market for an application than can handle this kind of task well.
With other manufactures floundering or neglecting their professional user base, Adobe would seem poised to take the video post crown. I wonder if Lightroom could be part of the takeover?

As I understand it Andy, its intention is to remain a photographers program, not a videographers program. The basic video features are available for lightweight management of videos coming from digital cameras, but it's not going too much further than that at this point in time. Of course that may change in the future, but we'll all have to wait and see on that one.

How do I revert images from video back into video after editing in photoshop?

I imported video frames to layers in photoshop so I could remove the background. How can I revert the images back into video once edited?

Great. If you want more information about doing animation in Photoshop and After Effects feel free to check out my blog. It has a few good tutorials that might be helpful especially for working with image sequences.

FCutExpress HD 3.5, HOw do I Treat an Image Sequence as a Video clip?

And edit it as if it was a video clip
My images are an animation i exported from a 3d program, but i exported as IMage sequence using PNG format.
I know how to import into Final cut,, but I'm not sure how to edit them as a BLOCK, and drag them to the viewer so i can workr with them as if it was a video clip.( I tried selecting them all in the timeline and dragging to the viewer and it seemed to work but in the viewer it was only one image(one frame ) )
Then also how would i add video transitions and effects as if the image sequence was actually a video clip?

Hi -
You can use Quicktime Pro to make the clip, if your images are sequentially numbered. Open Quicktime, choose File>Open Image Sequence, and select the first frame of your images. Quicktime will ask what your frame rate you want and then create the movie.
Once it is done, go File>Export and choose Movie to Quicktime Movie. Then select Options, and select the codec etc, that you want to edit with (DV, HDV, Animation, etc.) and then export the file and save the exported file.
Import that file into FCE and you should be ready to go, it will behave like any other movie clip.
Hope this helps.

How to edit 16bit TIFF image sequence file in FCP?

Dear all,
I have a number of 16 bit TIFF image sequence files (2048 x 1024 resolution) - some of them are RED footage, and others came directly from our f/x guy. We are going into a color correction session in a post house and we've been asked to provide a sequential 16 bit TIFF image sequence of the edited time line.
I need to do a cross dissolve b/w most of the clips I have. I have created image sequence QT movie (reference files) from the TIFF images. Though they play fine in QT player, when I try importing into FCP, I am met with a "general error". I tried both dragging it into QT, as well as File --> Import.
I am wondering what can I do to get these clips into FCP in order to apply the cross dissolve transitions I need. Is this a problem relating to the 16bit nature of the TIFF files?
I tried exporting the TIFF image sequence standalone QT movie, and those imported fine. However, I have a feeling that the standalone movie conversion also decrease my bit depth from 16 to 8. (When I do my final TIFF output from FCP after dissolves / transitions had been applied, each TIFF file is now 8 MB instead of 12 MB, hence my suspicion that the bit depth is adjusted).
Are there any settings I am missing, or does FCP simply don't support 16 bit image sequence reference file. As a test, I had also converted all my TIFF to jpg, and created jpeg image sequence reference file. These reference QT file can be successfully imported to FCP and I can edit them as if they are a clip.
If FCP is not able to handle these files, what are my other options? After Effects?
Any help is appreciated.
Thank you.
Michael

As far as I know, both FCP and Color only support up to 10 bit color, which is 1024 levels for each color channel, more than enough for avoiding color banding.
If you need 16 bit for sure, I believe AE will support 16 bit output. Another 16 bit application would be the extended version of Photoshop, which has some limited time line capability.

For some reason, I can't compile a video or image sequence anymore with Premiere, Media Encoder, or After Effects... All CC

I have been working on a video for awhile now and I've recently noticed that my .flv export format has been removed from my choice of encoders. I export from Poser Pro Game Dev to Png Image Sequence. I organise a cam angle in After Effects...I re render out to a png image sequence.. continuing to hold quality. Then when a scene is done; I use Premiere to export a 1080 by 720 wmv format 29.97. But now I can't encode from Premere, Media Encoder, or Affter Effects. Please ...Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

Check this for more information: removal of FLV and F4V export features from Adobe Media Encoder, After Effects, and Premiere Pro | After Effects regio…
But now I can't encode from Premiere, Media Encoder, or After Effects.
What exactly happens when you try to export?

How to render a video from image sequence with custom frame rate?

Dear all,
For a project i would like to create a video from 47 images with a custom frame rate. To achieve this i take the following steps in Photoshop CS6 extended:
1) File -> Open...
2) Select the first image and select " image sequence ". All images have the same size (1280 x 1261 px) and are numbered correctly.
3) Click open
4) Frame Rate: Custom 3 fps
5) File -> Export -> Render Video... -> Render
6) Play the video with VLC. The video shows a still image of the first image.
If i choose a frame rate of 10 fps, then there is no problem. VLC plays the video as expected.
Is there a other way to create a video from 47 images and choose a custom frame rate? Or what am i doing wrong?

Can Media Encoder take an image sequence in the watch folder and turn it into a video file?

I'm using OSX and Media Encoder 6 (from premier 6) and can't figure out how to make the watch folder take a .jpeg or .dpi sequence and turn it into a single video file.
I tried copying all the stills into the watch folder, that made 60 individual video files (one for each image).
I tried making a folder inside the watch folder, and copying all the images into it.. to which Media Encoder did nothing.
What am I missing? Will Media Encoder take image sequences and render them out as a audio-less video for me?
Thanks for any imput.

Hi action_packed,
This is from the documentation: http://helpx.adobe.com/media-encoder/using/add-items-encoding-queue.html
Still Image Sequences are not supported as source footage through Watch Folders. If a set of still images is placed in the folder being watched, each individual still file will be added as a separate item to the Queue rather than than the entire sequence as a single piece of footage.
Make a feature request for that here: http://adobe.ly/feature_request
Thanks,

I dont think PS will stack a smart obj that is a video. So, can PS save out the frames as JPG etc so I can reopen and then stack?
I dont have the space on my HD for Premiere or AE.
Thanks

Yes it can.

Exporting Large videos as image sequences using Quick Time Convert

I am trying to export some fairly long videos as image sequences >10000 frames with Final Cut Pro using the quick time conversion tool.
I am working with SD and HD videos.
While some sequences export without error (both SD & HD) occasionally an "error" occurs which results in the 10000th frame (and in one case the 1000th frame) not being written. The File is opened as "MyVideoName#FFFFFFF.png" but no data is written to it. (Obviously it should be MyVideoName10000.png)
There is 500Gb of free space on the disk I am writing to.
At the moment I can't even work out why it fails in some instances - apart from the fact it seems to be related to the file name.
I would appreciate any help any one can offer!
Thanks,
John
G5 Mac OS X (10.3.8) FCP HD 4.5; QT 6.5

Thanks for your reply!
So far I've not managed to come up with a workable solution.
Exporting as an image sequence is infact a work around... I originally was planning to export the videos as uncompressed .avi files but (as documented elsewhere) this does not work for videos >10Gb.
Some videos have exported fine both those longer and shorter than 10000 frames. However, for some videos only the first 9999 frames are exported. As a workaround I was planning to export the remainder of the videos seperately (as a subclip) but this only managed to export the first 999 frames (the 1000th file opened is called MyVideoName#FFFFFFFF, but no data is written to it).
At the moment I can't find any explanation for the cause of this problem. Are there any logs or any way to get more detailed error information?
Thanks again for your help,
John

Is there a way to continue an image sequence after a full screen video has played?

Any help with this would be really appreciated

Assuming the video is auto-play, you can put the video in the first state of an MSO, and then put the image sequence in the second state of the MSO. Then set the MSO to auto-change with a duration that equals the length of the video. This works if your video is shorter than the max auto-change duration we allow.
Having said that, this is a pretty bad idea from a performance perspective if your video and MSO are the full size of the screen. You'll force the app to load a ton of content into memory and performance will suffer.

CONVERTING images sequence into a video clip

Hello,
I got a TIFF sequence I exported to modify stuff image per image in Photoshop and now I'd like to convert it back to it's original video format.
How do I proceed?
Right now I was putting image on asequence settting all of them as 1 frame and placing them one after the other; this get very tedious when there'S alot of frames.
I'm sure another way of doing this exist which I'm not aware of , please instruct me.
Thank you.

Save and close. Open a new after effects project file, go to "After Effects" > "Preferences" > "Import" There you can say whether your sequence footage should be imported at 24 fps 30 fps 23.976 fps or whatever. After you have done that double-click in the project folder to import your footage.
Click on the first frame. An option will come up saying something like "This looks like an image sequence, would you like to import it as one?" Check "Yes" and "Import" you now have the image sequence as one item in your project directory.
Dump it into your timeline and AE will automatically create a comp to match the settings of the footage. Export the comp.
