Export as film strip

Is there any way to do something similar in final Cut or Motion to the 'Export As Filmstrip' option that you can use in Adobe Premier?

Don't save it to the desktop, or a folder with anything else in it. You should create a dedicated folder for the image sequence, or else you'll have a bear of a time compiling them all to import into another program.

Images once exported (RAW) do not show up in catalog or previous imorts not film strips in library nor develop. They are in the files to which they were exported

Not sure how to get this going seems rather redundant.
In the last 4 - 5 days I have imported several hundred RAW files, done some minimal post processing and exported these images to various files (I have verified that the images are in the files to which I exported them). These images to no show up in previous imports nor do they show up in library nor develop film strips. How or can I get them to show up for additional review and possible manipulation. I recently did this same operation with largle JPEG files and all went well.
I did initially have some problems with LR recognizing the RAW files but some how was able to overcome that ( perhaps a card issue they are old card and the JPEGs were on a new card hmmmm!!??)
Any ways I supposed I can reimport them from their current files but that is a redundant pain. Suggestions would be apprediated

One possibility is that you accidentally opened a new/different catalog.
Look at File->Open Recent and open the catalogs shown there and see if your photos appear

After editing, photo goes to end of film strip and I lose my place

In the beta, in develop mode, I would work on a file, go to CS3 for some editing, then back, and then export jpeg. Now, my work flow gets a little messed up with 1.1 because after I export, the photo I was working on disappears to the end of the film strip and my film strip is at the end. So, I keep losing my place. Is there a way to go back to the beta way by setting some preferences somewhere? Thanks in advance for any help.

Sara-
It sounds like your sorting is set to "by edit time" or some other that's sending it to the end of the line. Also, work inside of one folder at a time.

LR 3.6 cannot view photos in film strip in Library mode. Can view photos on Develop setting.

On LR 3.6 I cannot view my photos on the film strip in the LIBRARY setting. On DEVELOP I can view on photo at a time on the film strip (the rest of the photos are not viewable). This is a new problem which has only occured on the last two imports.

Sounds like a corrupted preview cache. Close LR and find the catalog on the hard drive. Rename the lrdata folder (Windows) / file (Mac) - don't touch the lrcat catalog file. Then open LR and see if the previews reappear. If they do, select all in Grid view tonight when you go to bed and go to Library menu > Previews > Render Standard Sized Previews - it take a long time so it's worth running overnight. If everything looks good in the morning, you can delete the lrdata folder (Windows) / file (Mac) that you renamed earlier.

Lightroom 4.4: Only 3 thumbnails will display at a time in both Grid view and the Film Strip

Hi. I have Lightroom 4.4. and Windows 7--both of which have been working fine for several months. Starting a few days ago, however, thumbnails have refused to load for any NEW photos I import. They appear gray/blank in both Grid view and the film strip. However, if you click on any of the film strip thumbnails (while in either Grid view or Develop mode), that thumbnail and corresponding image WILL load--until up to three have done so. Then they begin disappearing again, allowing you to view no more than three images' thumbnails at any one time.
I can't review a shoot via Grid mode this way. I'm also afraid to use Lightroom while it's misbehaving, for fear of corrupting the catalog somehow (though all the images appear to be there). Searching this forum, I found several people who experienced having all of their thumbnails blank out and who were able to correct this by either reinstalling or removing their color profiling software. However, 1) I did this (and it didn't work), and 2) it isn't that all my thumbnails that have disappeared. All the thumbnails and images imported prior to the bug, still initially display correctly.* And I can get three thumbnails of the newer images to appear at a time.
*The asterisk is because after I poked around some more, I realized that if I opened other folders and began post-processing images from older uploads (vs. just viewing them), the thumbnails that initially displayed correctly everywhere also blank out and begin appearing in this up-to-three-at-a-time fashion.
Help, please?
With many thanks,
Rita

Alas, it didn't work. I did it twice--the second time rebooting the computer before starting Lightroom. I didn't expect the reboot to make a difference, but I did discover something else in the process: the second time I tried this, I accidentally opened a different catalog--and new photos imported just FINE into that one, thumbnails and all! For one moment I thought the reboot HAD made the difference. However, when I reopened the catalog I actually wanted, the original problem remained. Thumbnails don't load with import, and, when forced, only display up to three at a time.
So the problem seems specific to this catalog.
And yes--thank you for affirming that reinstalling Lightroom wouldn't work, either. (I forgot to mention that's what I had tried first. It didn't help--but it's nice to know it wasn't supposed to.)
Thank you so much for your reply. Do you have any other ideas, please?
With many thanks, truly,
Rita

The photo displayed does not match the "film strip" shown below

Hello everyone,
I hope someone can help me.
I have started to spend some time with iPhoto, creating events an tagging, naming faces etc. trying to finally put some order against my photo collection and everything has been great until yesterday I noticed that the picture I was working on was different to the 'film strip' images below. Infact, the film strip images related to a completely different event....
Firstly, Is this something I need to worry about?
And wether it is or isn't something I need to worry about, how can I fix it?
But also, I can see some photo's in the film strip, but when I click on them they appear in the 'main' photo area as blank, in fact there is a kind of greyed out warning triangle with an exclamation mark there. Where have those photo's gone, and why can I still see them in the film strip if I have stupidly deleted them (I hope I haven't by the way!)
I've tried "Examine and repair iPhoto Library file permissions" and rebuilding the thumb prints, but neither fixes these problems.
(I've also done the close, re-open iPhoto and reboot the laptop scenarios!)
Can anyone help me please? Any, and all advice welcomed!
Thanks in anticipation
Westie
Oh - it's iPhoto 11 version 9.2.3 I'm using and I'm running it on a MacBook Pro running Max OS X 10.7.3

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

Film strip and ctrl Z undo, acting odd

When using sort by color, if your film strip is hidden and you change the color you are sorting by, the film strip goes back to show. Or is this in a new setting somewhere?
A few times I have noticed using ctrl Z (undo) it un-does more then one change, then I could never get back to where I was. Of course, if in DEV you can simply click on any DEV step, but I like to use undo so I dont have a long DEV history, especially if I'm just seeing how DEV adjustments will look as a test.
thanks,
Donnie

Sorry, in LR2.

Images do not show in film strip

When in either Library or Develop my images in the film strip do not appear, unless I click on the grey rectangle. Can someone give me some advise please

OK - there were some presets left in the develop module that were apparently the offending gremlins. Deleted them from within Lightroom and from windows explorer. Print module back to normal. I think they were develop presets created for Lightroom 4 that I had also downloaded/imported that were creating the problems. Thanks anyway.

Broken film strip thumbnails on my video files

I need help, please? I have downloaded a bunch of videos from my Panasonic camcorder to my organizer in Photoshop Elements 6 and all the thumbnails are a black and white broken film strip..they have a file extension of MOD. I can double click on them and see them, but there is no sound. These are very important videos of my Grandson and I don't want to lose them. All the other videos from my Canon camera are in AVI and work fine. Can someone help me retrieve these videos? I am new to these forums so if anyone has an answer could you please contact me at my e-mail address [email protected] Thank you.

Try changing the file name from .mod to .mpg
If you can’t see the file extension as part of the name try this in Windows:
1. Open the explorer window where the folder where your files are located.
2. Select the Tools à Folder Options
3. Click the View Tab
4. Uncheck the option to “Hide extensions for known file types”
5. Click “apply or apply to All Folders.
6. Click ok and close
7. You should now be able see all the file extensions when you browse to your folder of videos.
8. Right click on a filename you wish to change and select Rename
9. Change the last three letter to mpg and hit return.
They should play in Windows Media Player or QuickTime and hopefully be recognized by Elements unless you need a missing codec.

Exporting the film in best quality for further editing

I am about to finish a 52-minute long documentary in Final Cu Express. I've been editing in HD, using Apple Intermediate Codec1080i50.
Part of the project files and render files are in an external G-Raid and other part are on my Macbook pro hard drive, Since I will be traveling, I would like to be careful and minimize the risk of something happening either to the G-Raid or to my Mac, therefore, I want to export the film as it is, although in the future I still might need to work on it - do some more final editing and definitely do the subtitles in DVD Pro (currently I don't have the DVD Pro). My question is whether I should be using export - quick time movie or quick time conversion - and what the settings would be for the best quality product that could be used in documentary film screenings and possibly shown on TV? Or how should I go about saving the project? Right now the project file only has references to the files, right, not the files themselves and if something happens I might lose it all...
Thanks for the help!

QuickTime Movie. Forget the render filed, they seldom reconnect properly; it's usually better just to re-render. Keep your G-RAID and make sure it is backed up together with your project.

SANE driver (or other software) for my film strip scanner?

I took advantage of a cheap (£40) offer from Aldi and bought a "Tevion Film Strip Scanner" which nominally is only meant to work on Windows XP and Vista. On Arch, lsusb identifies the device as:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 05a9:1550 OmniVision Technologies, Inc. VEHO Filmscanner
and it looks identical to the particular model: Veho VFS-004
I've done quite a bit of searching, and found some hints in forums that SANE might support it, but no evidence of this on the SANE site. Also, Avision drivers for film scanners were mentioned, but no go either when I tried to tweak /etc/sane.d/avision.conf with the device info. Also, I tried the VueScan program which was also hinted to work, but got "scanner not found".
I do have access to Windows to use the device on, but it would be great if anyone knew how it could be accessed on Arch.

No OCR software came with your printer, it may cost more than the printer itself. There are many OCR software around, you can purchase one or please try:

Film Strip Question

If you have 2 monitors like i do, how do i get the film strip to appear on the 2nd screen.
For an example of what i mean if you press the F key you get the image selected in full screen in your current main screen, scroll the mouse down the screen and get the film strip.
How do i get that filmstrip when the image selected in the browser is already displayed at full screen on an alternate monitor?
Hope that makes sense!
Cheers

Did you "reorganize" them outside of LR? If so, LR has lost track of the images. You'll need to click the Question Mark on one at the highest level directory you can and point LR to the file. LR will try to re-locate the rest but you may need to do this for each changed branch.

Scroll film strip

Hi,
I'd like to be able to have a film strip of thumbnail slides
scroll up and down, and also be able to click on any of the
thumbnails. Once a thumbnail is clicked, it should open the larger
(full) version of that respective slide. I can do a scroll bar, but
I cannot make the thumbnails clickable. Does anyone know how to do
this?
Thanks in advance.

There are many tutorials online for scrolling thumbnail
menus. If you google flash, scrolling thumbnail menu, you get lots
of them.

Moving photos within film strip

Hi,
I apologize in advance for such a rudimentary question, but what would be the fastest and easiest way to move one or more photos from one end of the filmstrip, to the other? I know I can just select the photos I want to move, drag them to the edge of the film strip and wait for it to scroll to the desired location, but I was hoping there is a faster, more efficient way. Basically I have some photos at the beginning of the film strip that I want to place next to similar photos that appear somewhere towards the end of the film strip. Unfortunately shuttle control ceases to function once you click and drag a photo.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

There really are many many ways to sort-of do this. It depends how much you want to do with either the keyboard and/or the selection pointer (a/k/a the mouse cursor). None of the ones I know are as direct as it seems you would like.
A few work-arounds.
• Select the images you want to move. Press "v" twice to go to Browser view. Change the thumbnail size to small (this can be done w. repeated "{Shift}+{left square bracket}", or in the toolstrip of the Browser). Click-and-drag to where you want. Press "v" to return to Split view.
• Even easier -- just do this kind of image ordering in Browser view. As soon as you manually move an Image, the sort order changes to Manual. The Manual sort is remembered even if you change to another sort (e.g.: arrange your images, change to date sort, then change to manual sort and Aperture restores your last manual sort).
• Click to change the Film Strip in Split view to either Browser or List mode (the keyboard shortcuts are listed next to the icons on the Film Strip toolstrip). Scrolling in either of these modes is faster than in the Film Strip.
• Add color labels to the ones you want together (there are 8 labels to chose from) and then sort by label.
Better yet -- make a Stack of the images you want together. Select the ones at the beginning of the Project, add the ones at the end to your selection, and select "Stacks→Stack".

Flash Image gallery (film strip)

HI there,
I recently came across a webpage that had a film strip
slideshow at the top of the homepage... Does anyone know what this
is called or knows of a script that does something similar? Ive
been looking for three weeks now but I can not find one.
Thanks!
Matt

Do you have a reference that can make clear what you
mean?
