Exported video color not the same as canvas

When I export my project in Motion 5.1 using the default setting for Render: Color + Alpha, Premultiply alpha checked, and the rest of the setting set for "Use canvas setting" and the co-dec Pro Res 422 (HQ), the colors I see on the canvas come out as wash out looking in the exported video. Deep reds come out as light pink. I tried setting the project background (black) as solid instead of transparent thinking that that was the issue but there was no difference. I tried different co-decs and settings in the options before export without any luck. What am I missing here?
Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.

Thank you for your reply.  I set to Color only and unchecked premultiply alpha and exported with the same results: Color wash out.
I used the default Canvas settings when I created the project from a .psd file supplied to me from the designer so what would be the "properly" set Canvas setting?  Normally when I export I just use the "Use canvas setting" for all of the parameters in the Render tab in Export.
I use QuickTime for viewing the exports.  Please let me know any more specific info you might need to help you answer this question.
Thank you

  • Hex colors not the same

    I'm trying to change the background color of an xspf music player from black ( as in Roddy's tutorial ). I chose the Safe Hex colors, and wanted to try out a few to judge what they looked like.
    However: whatever code I write in, I ONLY get black or various shades of blue.
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks, Kay.

    Hallo Star-Fish, thanks for answering. This is the URL:
    http://www.innerspheresmusic.com/Audio_4.html
    I just checked on a Windows PC and the page is blank- not even a blue rectangle. In iWeb, it looks exactly the same as this page viewed on a mac; ie. the player hasn't properly established itself either.
    I'll post my HTML code here too- perhaps you can spot the faults:

  • Calendar colors not the same...

    In iCal, I have four different calendars each with their own color: blue, green, red, and orange. The calendar colors on the iPhone are all scrambled. How do I fix this? What am I missing? Thanks!

    After playing around for some time and reading many blogs and posts with suggestions, I tried MobileMe as well.
    It did not solve the color problem for me and on top of that if gave me a new problem with not syncing ical subscriptions.
    The problems are so massive and wide spread that Apple has to fix them, and I'm pretty confident they will. We will probably see a round of updates and all of a sudden it will work like we all expect from a premium product like the iPhone and MobileMe.
    The disappointing part is that Apple gave us a service which has a bunch of little problems and is basically not quite ready yet. And I bet that's exactly what it is, they simply ran out of time and had to push a product into the marked, before they were quite finished with it.
    This is disappointing but not uncommon with everything computer. However, they should keep us informed so that we can stop guessing! "Sorry folks, we have a bunch of problems here. We will subsequently fix them over the next couple of weeks and we apologize for the inconvenience!" This is the least I would expect as a loyal customer.

    So, printing an image from PS is OK, but from LR it's dark?
    Do both have the same printer ICC profile selected?

  • Exported Video is not clipped

    I have clipped the start and end locations on some videos. I then export them with the Vidoe setting of "Original". This is suppost to only maintain the original aspect ratio and FPS.
    When I view the exported video it is the same as the original, with the clipped start and end points, What am I doing wrong?
    If I export to a different format then the edits are included.

    "Original" means original, as in export the original file.  Same with stills.  If you export a raw as Original, you'll get the original raw file.

  • My exported edited image in TIFF-16bit is not the same as my edited RAWfile

    Hi! First and foremost my problem is not speed. I have learn to deal with Aperture's slowness while editing or exporting images and not real time brush strokes and occassional crashes. It thought me PATIENCE!
    My problem are my exported image from Aperture, The images are not rendered the same exact way as the RAW image I edited (quality-sharpness-saturation-definition-etc.) in Aperture. The rendering is WAY OFF. I even exaggerate in Sharpness and contrast in rendering my RAW images yet my exported (both TIFF -16 bit or JPEG orig. size) are way softer than the one I originally rendered in RAW at Aperture 3.0.2. Even the COLORS are OFF-saturation, luminance, etc. It's not my Monitor or my Eyes, I asked 3 friends to help me validate my concern. After viewing my exported (TIFF or Jpeg) images on an external preview browser, I re-import them to Aperture and put them- (the exported images) in the same Projects where the Original RAW file is located, then I carefully compare them in Full Screen view, I can totally say that they're not the same quality, sharpness, saturation, tonal value!
    It's very frustrating to experience this. I work really hard on every single image, I tolerate the sluggishness, the crashes, All I want are my image output render the way I rendered them in RAW file in regards to sharpness, color value and just the overall look that I wanted in my images. BTW I just downloaded the recent March 22, 2011 update. But still it's still having this problem.
    Please help me all you good knowledgable, compassionate Aperture experts help an Aperture user in distress.
    Thanks for your time. I appreciate any positive feedback and help.
    JC

    Richard,
    You are not going crazy, this is a well documented throughout the web
    Sorry, but the web is not documentation for Aperture.
    I cannot understand why Apple have not resolved this
    For one, it takes time to fix a bug, and the have to know about it. Have you told Apple that this is a problem through Aperture feedback? Second, someone at Aperture has to prioritize what their engineers work on. Since this does not seem to be a problem for very many people (including the well-regarded contributors whom you were trying to offend in your other post on this topic), it may turn out that it has a low priority for Apple.
    Please Apple sort this out!
    Apple does not contribute to this forum and there's no reason to believe they will read this particular message and make a bug report.

  • HT3130 trying to export a 4 minute video to desktop.  Only 1:08 seconds exports.  I've tried other clips and they all cut at 1:08.  Used different exports like Quicktime with the same results.

    trying to export a 4 minute video to desktop.  Only 1:08 seconds exports.  I've tried other clips and they all cut at 1:08.  Used different exports like Quicktime with the same results.

    Good to hear that you've had some success with the import.
    I tried 3 times to do it before I finally changed it to H.264, and it worked on the first try.  The quality of the compression was terrible with those settings compared to my standard settings, but I'm just glad it worked.
    Rather than Share>Export using QuickTime and then choosing your own settings for H.264, you may get a better result if you simply use the Share>Export Movie option. Alternatively, use the Share>Media Browser option (as I mentioned in my earlier post). You will be presented with a range of sizes to choose from. Depending on your target, it's usually best to select the highest size available, such as Large, HD 720p or HD 1080p. However, for producing a DVD it's best to not go beyond the HD 720p size, as the DVD will be downscaled during encoding to Standard Definition in the appropriate size for either PAL or NTSC.
    In my experience, both these options (Export Movie or Media Browser) produce a video file of excellent quality. The files will be in H.264 format and will have the file extension .mov or .m4v depending on the size of the export. I'm assuming that your camera records HD video in AVCHD format.
    These files work well with iDVD (or other DVD authoring programs). The export process for the presets is optimised by Apple to produce high quality video files at a reasonable file size. So, selecting a preset may give you a much better result. Choosing your own H.264 settings when using the "Export using QuickTime" method could be why "the compression was terrible". You may have selected a data (bit) rate that was too low. There is always a trade-off between quality and file size when compressing video.
    So, to summarise, try one of the Apple presets using either Share>Export Movie or Share>Media Browser.

  • Simpli Home Artisan : TV Stand and Coffee Table : Not the same color. HELP

    Hello,
    I ordered and received the Simpli Home Artisan TV Stand from the BestBuy website.  We got it a couple weeks ago, put it together and love it.
    We decided to order the matching Simpli Home Artisan Coffee table to go with it.  We just picked it up today and it is not the same color at the TV stand.
    Both item listed on the BestBuy website say they are "Medium auburn brown" in color, as do the boxes we recieved. However they are not the same color, the TV stand is much darker than the coffee table.
    TV Stand: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/simpli-home-artisan-tv-stand-for-most-flat-panel-tvs-up-to-54/1622137.p?...
    Coffe Table: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/simpli-home-artisan-collection-coffee-table/1860306.p?id=1219066204317&s...
    If you go to the Simpli Home manufacturer website you will see that Artisan collection comes in two different color tones, "Available in Auburn or Tobacco Brown".
    Simpli Home Website: http://www.simpli-home.com/#!wood---artisan-coffee-table/cuhk
    The TV stand we got is Tobacco Brown, and though the color does not match the pictures on BestBuy.com, we liked it and decided it was okay, but not if the coffee table doesn't match.
    I really don't care if I get Tobacco Brown or Medium Auburn, I just want them to match.  However since I've already assembled the TV Stand, I would like to return the coffee table and get one that is Tobacco brown.
    I posted this to the forum because I know if I call the store they won't have a clue what I am talking about.
    Please let me know what I should do, and help me if you can.
    Thank you
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Greetings rtb1980,
    I can definitely understand why you would choose both of those pieces of furniture as they look wonderful, but of course it would be a chronic annoyance if the furniture didn’t match. Using the email address you registered with the forum, I was able to take a look at your purchase history and the items on our site as well as the manufacturer’s.
    As we get all of our information about the products directly from the manufacturer, it would seem that you received the wrong color TV stand, and that you would have received the correct color for the coffee table. As these items are special ordered items, meaning the orders are not fulfilled directly by us, it is difficult to say where the mix up may have occurred with your TV stand, for which I am truly sorry.  
    That being said, it does not appear that we carry the coffee table in the tobacco brown color you are looking for. Sadly, this means we would be unable to provide you an exchange for the tobacco color, although you should be able to return the coffee table within the Return & Exchange Policy. However, we should be able to provide you with an exchange of your TV stand for the correct color to match the auburn colored coffee table you received; although, I understand that this may not be the ideal resolution, as it may have been the more complicated piece of furniture to put together.
    I apologize for any inconvenience this experience may have caused you. If you should have any questions, or need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
    Sincerely,
    Tasha|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

  • PSD file on mac, opened on PC not the same colors??

    my PSD file has a specific color i need, PMS 300 in my logo. So on my MAC i make it. When someone at my work opens the PSD file on a PC, it is not the same color. why arent the colors the same?? even when i save it as a PDF, if someone on a pc opens it at my work. its a different shade of blue.

    Windows based PCs are sRGB by default. Many apps are not even color managed and can't display images tagged with other profiles correctly.
    Photoshop and Bridge are color managed, but what are they using to view your files?
    Add to that users who are not educated in color management and you have a problem.
    Those who target their files for commercial printing use Adobe RGB, a much larger gamut that will look desaturated in an sRGB environment like Windows.
    So either they get a viewer that can read these tags, or you will have to send them a copy of the file converted to sRGB.
    This can be found in Photoshop's Edit menu.
    Edit > Convert to Profile... if your image is already tagged as Adobe rgb
    You can still keep your Adobe RGB tagged files for print, but you have to explain that to your Windows users.
    It's not the best answer, but might hold until all PCs are on the same page and your co-workers educated.

  • Exported Video Does Not Look Right

    I am sure this is a basic setting I am overlooking, but a lot of this is new to me - any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
    My goal is to create a high quality 640x480 movie for Computer/Web viewing only.
    • I shot a short video using a Canon Vixia HV30 to mini DV tape using the SD standard - no problem. I guess that records at 720x480 non-square pixels at 29.97fps - is that right?
    • I used log and capture inside of FCP v6.0.5 to capture the various clips I needed - no problem (I don't think). If I open each of those clips from the finder in Quicktime they look "pretty" good, but a bit of aliasing on the diagonals and somewhat blurry, but not sure why? Everything looks sharp on the smaller camera LCD screen? and looks pretty good inside of FCP on the Canvas? If I open one of these captures directly inside of Quicktime and do a get info, it says...
    DV 720x480 (640x480)
    FPS: 29.95
    Normal Size: 640x480 pixels
    Current Size: 640x480 pixels (Actual)
    All these Quicktime movies appear slightly larger in height and width than the same clips when viewed in the FCP Canvas?
    If I open the Sequence Settings in FCP it says...
    Frame Size 720 x 480 NTSC DV (3:2)
    Pixel Aspect Ratio NTSC - CCIR 601 /DV (720x480)
    Field Dominance: None
    Editing Timebase: 29.97
    Everything looked pretty good inside FCP so I Exported a QT Movie using "Current Settings". Then opened the resulting self-contained movie in QT and it looks pretty bad. When I get info in QT on the rendered final movie it reads...
    DV 720x480 (640x480)
    FPS: 29.97
    Normal Size: 720x480 pixels
    Current Size: 640x480 pixels (Actual)
    So... the FPS and the Normal Size are not the same as the captured original clips.
    Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
    Is this just the wrong Sequence Settings, Export Settings or do I have to start over an re-capture all my footage some other way?
    PS - I am assuming that the DV Camcorder is recording interlaced (60 fields) rather than progressive - is that right. Do I need to de-interlace the video somehow?

    I'm far from being an expert, but since no one has replied to you yet, and because I've been helped out here plenty of times, I'll post something and who knows -- it may be the answer.
    Your post was really long but from what I can gather, you're wondering why your exported video does not look good when you open it in QuickTime. Try this: Open the video in QT, hit command-J, then click on Video Track, then at the bottom right (under Visual Settings) you'll see High Quality, Single Field, and Deinterlace. Click around on those to see if that improves what you see.

  • How can I export several versions at the same time?

    Greetings -
    I'm looking for something that I may just be missing, and hoping someone here can point me in the right direction.
    Basically, I'd like to be able to select an image in my library and export several versions at the same time. For example, I select a photo and export JPG, TIFF and PSD versions in one shot without having to run three separate export requests - essentially a batch action. I can't imagine that this isn't built in already - I'm just assuming that I'm missing something obvious.
    Thanks in advance for any advice anyone might have.
    John.

    Fwiw, I've not seen this requested before.
    This kind of Export option is very typical, Kirby, when the rendering of the exported version will take a long time, for example for video or audio. Then you can share several formats at once, to render a version suitable for the web, for viewing on the computer, or the iPhone at the same time. That is really useful, if you render a movie at a full HD resolution and don't have to do it again for an iPhone/iPod version.
    QuickTime 7 does this for the "File > Export for Web" option, for example. You can get three versions of your final movie at the same time.
    And I just checked, the new iMovie Theater does this as well, when sharing a movie to the Theater:
    When you add a movie, trailer, or clip to the Theater, iMovie creates versions of your movie tailored for local playback, playback on an iOS device, and streaming.
    Come to think about it - exporting a webpage from Aperture will also export thumbnail sized images plus a larger version for downloading.

  • Any way to export videos and preserve the original creation date?

    I recently shot video using an NEX-5N and AVCHD as the format. Since Aperture cannot playback this format, I converted the videos using Handbrake to mp4 (H.264), and then used A Better Finder to change the creation date of the converted file back to the same date as the original file.
    Importing this converted file into Aperture works great, and the imported file shows the correct metadata of the original creation date, not the date of the conversion.
    But when exporting this file from Aperture, it seems like Aperture does not embed the date as metadata, and thus the only date associated with the exported video is the file-system date attached to the file, which will of course be the date of the export. 
    I assume this problem applies to ANY video imported into Aperture, not just those that have been converted.
    Does anyone have a method for exporting video and having the original creation date remain?  This is obviously a problem when exporting videos one-by-one, but would be a bigger problem if I ever wanted to export my entire video library from Aperture into another program...all the video files would have the same date!
    Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

    EXIF data and video files is even more of a gray area then EXIF data and stills.
    I don't do much video in Aperture so I'll take your word for it that the data isn;t imbedded into the file. In that case the best I can see is to create a custom export preset and  include the Image Date in the filename. Not great but you at least have the data and you might be able to have a script use the date from the filename and somehow add it back into the file.

  • 2 videos/photos at the same time?

    hi
    how do i go about putting 2 videos/photos on the same canvas at one time?  I would like to have multiple photos "fly" in one at a time but end up on the same screen at the end of it, a bit like a tiling or stacked effect.  Also i would like two videos playing along side on one another.  How do i do this?
    I have done a search but i cant find anything, not sure i am searching for the right thing. 
    Thanks
    Amanda

    There's two ways you can go about this Amanda.
    1. Set the length of your images for example 8 seconds each. Offset the photo's like a ladder effect and add the animating keyframes. The red dots in the image below represent the start/finish points of the animation.
    2. The other option is to set the length of all the same, then use keyframes to set the start/ finish of the animation.
    I always use example 1, however example 2 would probably be easier to understand?
    Hope that helps

  • Line item Ship-to Info is not the same in Header Ship-to Party During Sales Order Creation via IDOC

    We have observed that during creation of sales order using idoc, the line item ship-to party is not the same with header ship-to. The ship-to party info in line item is equivalent to the header's sold to party. To give you a quick background, Sold to party info is given in idoc and ship to party is being determined using table EDPAR. In this specific scenario, sold to customer is not the same with ship to customer.
    Initial checking on the code leads us in function module VIEW_KUAGV. This FM populates partner details of sales order header and line item in program LVEDAF1Z
    Below is the code for Sales order Header. Notice that WE_INPUT parameter which contains Ship to party is passed as exporting parameter in FM VIEW_KUAGV. This is the reason why Ship to Party is populated correctly in sales order header but not in sales order item.
    Initially, it first set to Sold-To Party. However, if WE_INPUT is given or provided, partner details is set to Ship-To Party.
    Please advise on how we can make the ship to party info in header and line item be consistent. This is SAP Standard program which why we are hesitant to make change on the program. If there is a configuration to make this happen, kindly advise.

    Hi Jayesh,
    If I understand you correctly, you want that when creating SO from Quoatation
    the Ship to Party also follow/copy Ship to Party from Quotation, right?
    Just to confirm with you, when you creating SO reference from Quotation, you
    use copy/follow-up function, am I right?
    You can do this by setting in configuration of Copy Control (like mentioned by Hui).
    Step as follow :
    1. Go to IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Copying Control for
        Business Transactions
    2. Create your BAdi (Business Add-In for Copying Control), such as get Ship to
        Party value from source document and use it in current document
    3. Use this Rule you have created in BAdi (no. 2), in copy control transaction type
        IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic Settings->Copying Control for
        Business Transactions-> Define Copying Control for Transaction Types
    4. Here you set Copying Routine for your transaction types (put name of your Badi
        created in step no. 2)
    Or alternatively, you can set it on access sequence in Partner Function
    Ship to Party in configuration. You can define access sequence the Ship
    to Party is taken from Preceeding Document -> Ship To Party
    1. Go to Partner Function access sequence :
        IMG->CRM->Basic Functions->Partner Processing->Define Access Sequence
    2. Create new access sequence with following entry :
        - Source COM_PARTNER_A (PrecedingPartner)
        - Check Mapping for Partner Being search
        - Partner Function in Source  = Ship To Party
    3. Assign this Access Sequence in you Partner Function used in Sales Order Transaction
       Type.
    Tell me if this is what you looking for
    Gun.
