Effects & transition plugins on Mac?
We've been using FxFactory with their stock plugins for several years, effects and transitions for FCP. Unfortunately FxFactory does not yet support PP. So, I'm looking for some good quality 64bit plugins. I"ve googled and found Pixelan, Digieffects, etc. But wondering if anyone has a recommendation. Thanks!
Thanks Jim. I did find that and looked through them a few weeks ago. I was just hoping to get a few recommedations from users.
We don't use a lot of effects, mostly cuts, but it would be nice to have something like FxFactory (not supported in PP). Basically FxFactory is a plugin "engine" for lack of a better word. They are a company that represents many other vendors creating a wide array of plugins. So it made it real easy if I was looking for a specific effect to first look for the plugins they represented. Often that was as far as I needed to go. I really like that concept.
Boris is doing some nice things, so I'll keep my eye out for that when it is supported on the Mac, especially if no one has any more specific thoughts.
All the best!

What is this Effect/Transition?
What is this effect/transition used at the beginning of this video?
Where can I download this effect so that I may use it?
http://vimeo.com/26966352You can also achieve this look by using an overlay of a 'film burn' effect.
The overlay clip seems to have some hand-written 'Leader' included.
Also, it does look like there's a bit of added 'Film Grain / Dust / Hair' efx
created by some sort of 'Old Film' plugin.
A few samples:

Is there any way to get more effects/transitions free for CC ?
The one thing FCP X has over PP CC is that it has many more included effects/transitions, basic things even like star wipes and circular wipes - CC doesn't seem to have a lot of that - does anyone know where to get free plugins from ?
To create a custom effect, I usually start with a preset that is simiilar to the effect I want, apply it to the clip, change/customise as you want, then in the Effect Controls window right-click (Windows) on the Effect and you will see an option to "Save Preset". It will then show up under Presets at the top of the list.
Periodically it is a good idea to back up the presets (as it is any of the settings because the new Sync to Cloud doesn't seem all that reliable or does it even back these up, IDK) by clicking on the panel menu and selecting "Export" option. -
Export presentation from my imac to my ipad with the object effect transitions
Well i've made a presentation, took me a few days to make and somehow i forgot that the only way i can present it is through my ipad, and is there a way i can export my presentation whilst not losing the object effect transitions???
i've tried making it into a video and sending it to my ipad but that doesn't workYou might get a quicker/better response in the iWork for iPad forum. Not all of us here have used the iPad and know what is compatible and what is not.

Manual use of effects/transitions from themes...
I am new to PE, just installed PE10 yesterday... I wish to use the effects/transitions that are in the instant movie (themes) manually, but they are not provided as choices from the effects/transition menus. Is there any way to use them? The instant movie feature doesn't allow for the video editing I require. Thanks.*
As Bill said there is this facility called 'Break Apart Instant Movie' in the right click menu on Instant movie, which breaks apart the Instant movie into its components. You can do editing on these parts.
And the effects/transitions used in Instant movie are very well present in the effects/tarnsitions menus. All effects/transitions/titles used in Instant Movies are present there.
And if you want to know what effects/transition was applied in Instant Movie, you can Break Apart it. In the broken components, select the clip whose/effect/transition you want to know and click on Properties button(which is below the monitor).
It will give you the name of effect/transition used. -
[CS2]Is it possible to use XCode to develop plugin on MAC?
Hi,
Im new to Indesign Plugin Development.Is it possible to use XCode to develop Indesign Plugin on Mac 10.3.9 for Indesign CS2?
SDK says that the IDE to be used is Codewarrior 9.3.I have Codewarrior 8.3
installed in my system.Will i be able to compile plugin in this version of codewarrior?
Please give me your suggestion.
Thanks in advance.
myRiazI'll back up Peter on this one. InDesign is tied to the specific C++ ABI and therefore you can only use the same compiler to build plugins. There can even be problems with differing versions of CodeWarrior.
Unfortunately I don't have a good answer for you as CW is generally no longer available for purchase. I'd start a conversation with Developer Technical Support to begin with. You can also perhaps search Ebay. Finally, as I recall CW10 was released for free from MetroWerks. If you can find that there is a chance, however slim, you could get CW10 to build a CS2 plugin. -
The "official" (or at least, recommended by your FAQ) PDF plugin on Mac isn't supported on FF4 (well, you can compile it to be ran on FF4, but it needs to be ran in 32 bit). Since development on this plugin has stalled, what will you do about it? Chrome has a built-in plugin, and since Core Image provides support for PDF reading, it wouldn't be that hard to implement either... (please note that I have no coding knowledge, so I work on that, but I'd love to :) )
For the record, I uninstalled it since it wasn't supported and I now use Preview to open PDFs. But it's very annoying.The following link may help, it has a version of the add-on that works in 32 bit mode - http://code.google.com/p/firefox-mac-pdf/issues/detail?id=189

Error compiling Illustrator CS6 plugin on Mac OS 10.10 (Yosemite)
Hi @all,
if i try to compile a Illustrator (CS6) plugin on Mac OS 10.10 (Yosemite) and use the MacOS 10.5 SDK, I get the following error:
/MySDKPath/Illustrator/cs6/illustratorapi/pica_sp/SPFiles.h:84:9: error: mac68k
alignment pragma is not supported on this target
#pragma options align=mac68k
Did anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance
Best RegardsI'm surprised there's a 68K setting at all, given that CS6 had been on Intel architecture for so long. Have you had any luck since then?
I tried compiling the sample AI6 plugins with OS X 10.8 (I think) and it worked fine, although I wasn't able to make any headway because the loss of ADM made for a very, very steep learning curve. Anyway, fast-forward a couple of years and I have time again to give this another shot, hoping to use Xcode to build a Mac interface, but I'm having a different puzzling error. I'm on a late 2012 iMac now with Yosemite 10.10.3. I downloaded Xcode 5.1.1 and am using that (after my system automatically updated to Xcode 6) and am getting an error:
Carbon.h file not found
Is it just not possible to compile for CS6 under Yosemite?
I'd really, really appreciate any suggestions.

The cocotron, cross-developing photoshop plugin on Mac for Windows
Hi,
Did anyone use "the cocotron" http://www.cocotron.org/ for developing Windows photoshop plugin on Mac?
RegarsFlash-based extensions will be deprecated for CC extension with the release of ExtensionBuilder 3.0.
But flash-based extensions will keep working for CS5 and CS6 applications.
But you are right, this is not the solution to choose if you want to make an hybrid extension for CC. -
Multiple effects or plugins in a preset?
I create alot of looks or effects that require 2 or more effects or plugins and quite often I need to use them again in later projects.
Apart from creating a preset folder named "The Effect" and puting all my plugins/effects in them for later use and making sure I have the right stack order,is there a simpler way you can have an effects preset that contains all effects & plugins?
or is this another feature request?The instructions here describe how to save an effect preset that consists of multiple effects. Is that not working for you?

I have a clown render for an animation I am working on (the content is not important). When I duplicate the first layer, flip it horizontally there are no problems when I run a RAM preview. But when I time reverse the layer I get this error message "After Effects: AEGP Plugin TIFFIO: UnExpected End of File (5027 :: 12)". Now in the past this meant that some of the tiff. renders had been corrupted due to copying and pasting the still frames into another folder using windows explorer. So to fix the issue I would simply re-render the still frames to the proper folder which meant I no longer needed to copy and paste the still .tiff files. But now whats different this time is that the error message only pops up when I use the "Layer, Time, Time-Reverse Layer".
This should work. I have done this exact animation at a smaller resolution (800x800). The only difference is now I have re-rendered the same footage at a higher resolution (1424x1424).
Anyone know what causes this issue?It might be just one file in the sequence that's flakey and it only shows up with reversal, because you may never have actually sampled the frame in normal mode. This might also have shown up during render only, e.g. when rendering with fields would have sampled the frames at a different time. I'd re-check your sequence. As ´TimeRemapper said, it may also be an issue with teh options you chose for saving the TIFFs. In that case running it through an image viewer/converter like XnView or Maya's fcheck utilty might fix the problems...

Does FCP add content to manually created batch lists upon capture?
When you create a batch list text file manually and import it into FCP, will FCP automatically add the content for columns that you did not included such as frame size, Vid rate, etc. Those are redundant. I'd like to have them though.
