FCPX: When applying the keyer to green screen, is there a way to change the resulting color from black to another color (cream, blue, etc)?

Currently working on a project where I shot various video tributes in front of a green screen. When using the keyer in FCPX, the resulting image is represented by a black background instead of a green one. I'd like to change that color to blue, tan or something else so that when I apply a picture in a portion of the background, the remaining background looks fine. More specifically, I plan to put images over the right shoulder of each person in the video. The image will only take up about 1/4 of the background and the rest of it currently just looks like a black screen. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Tom now I have another follow-up. So i have the original green screen with the keyer applied which, emptied the background. Now I've applied a color generator below that in the timeline and it generates a color. How do I now go back and add the photo in the upper right corner of the clip? Ultimatly the goal is to have the subject, with the color backdrop and a photo above their right shoulder.

How do you change the background color from black to another color on i movie

I have a swipe gesture that swipes a UIView onto the main View Controller. Is there a way to change the speed that the UIView swipes on?

I dont need the image to swipe to follow the speed of the gesture, I just want the swipe to be slower as at the moment it comes on so fast it almost pops on.
Thanks!

Thank you very much for your speedy answer.
I was hoping to get the effect of a push segue from the initial View Controller screen to a UIView on that same view controller. I seem to be able to add this option into my Swipe Gesture connections, (storyboard shows the segue arrow exiting the View controller and then pointing back into the same View Controller) This would be ideal, but I cant work out if its possible to link this segue to the new UIView I want. At the moment it just feeds back to the initial View Controller screen! Argggh!!!

Is there a way to Change the Writing Speed When Burning CD-R's?

Is there a way to change the writing speed when burning CD-R's?
I don't see any options in Disk Utility.
Rob
P.S. Since I am burning coasters lately with the Pioneer DVR-111D, I though that I might solve the problem by using a lower write speed.

I dn't believe so with Disk Utility although you can with Roxio Toast Titanium. I would try another media brand, like Verbatim, as a first step and see if the coaster problem goes away.

Is there a way to change the project timecode in FCPX?

Is there a way to change the project timecode in FCPX? So that my sequence can start at 01:00:00:00 or am I stuck
with it starting at 0?

I guess you could, but that would be an hour long gap clip before your sequence which would make for a very
unweildy sequence. Especially since this cut will be only about a minute.

When you submit to the store via iTunes Producer, you'll have a chance to choose a cover.

You can do that with the Menu Editor extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/
This extension has not been updated by its author in a couple of years, but another developer has updated it for Firefox 4, you can get the updated version from http://netticat.ath.cx/MyAddons/MyAddons.htm#3rdpartyaddons

HT1657 I live in switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language. Is there a way to change the language to the original language when renting?

I live in Switzerland and I can only rent movies in german language...is there a way to change the language of the movie I rent from Itunes back to original language?

Hi Zanaro,
It is an Apple isuue same as when you want to buy or download from the iTunes store.
I bought and registered (also credit card from Australia) mi iPhone 4s
Now when I came to Switzerland I should have NOT used my Australian details but registered everything here in Switzerland with Swiss credit card and probably a swiss email account.
My problem is opposite to yours, I can only download movies in English!!!!
What Apple could have done at least is give an option on undertittles so at least some movies are understud. It is no problem for myself but when I have friends over that do not understand the language we have problems.
I have had talks in Apple stores in Zuerich also in smaller Apple outlets, they all know about it as it is a common not problem but nuicance with Apples.
I hope I could shed some light to your problems but I think we can only hope that Apple will change theyr attidude to this **** situation.

I'm on FCPX 10.1.1. Is there a way to change the speed of a keyframe effect? I have still images zooming onto the storyline, but I can't find any way to speed up or slow down the zoom time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to change the speed of a keyframe zoom effect on still photos? Clip duration doesn't seem to change the zoom speed at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Open the video animation (Control-v). In transform>All click and drag the X and Y keyframes (which should be together) – left to speed up the scale change and right to slow it down . It may take a little practice to get this to work (I seldom get it right the first try).
You could do this individually for each clip, or you wanted to adjust multiple clips you can copy and paste attributes to your other other clips.

Is there a way to change the default action for clicking a "Print" button on a website to open Print Preview instead of the default system printer?

When I am at a website that contains a button for printing (Gmail, for example), is there a way to change the way that functions, so that when I click "Print", Firefox will open Print Preview instead of taking me to the default system printer?

You can apply system-wise "negative" color effect under Settings > General > Accessibility, by toggling the White and Black switch - and, in iCab Mobile (and some other, better browsers / PDF readers), its own "night mode" negative color scheme.
Otherwise, no, you can't do anything else except for asking third party app authors to add selectable back/froeground (=text) colors to their apps.

Is there a way to change the pinch-to-zoom feature?

Is there a way to change the behavior of pinch-to-zoom in Safari 5.1.4 on Lion? It seems to have adopted the iOS zoom (where it's a zoom into an area on the page) and I would prefer that it emulated a Command-+ type of page zoom. When using pinch-to-zoom in a site like Gmail or Google Reader, the content ends up requiring horizontal scrolling if you pinch-to-zoom... while Command-+ increases the size of everything but keeps it within a single screen.
Can this be done? Is there the equivalent of the about:config page from Firefox?
Apple... can you fix this (or offer an option to determine how pinch-to-zoom works in Safari)?!?!
Thanks!

Thanks for your response.
I have searched for a solution to change the order of my tags and haven't found it.
I add multiple tags to my emails and the color at a glance means something to me - if I add an earlier, more up the priority ladder it shows that color instead of the one that I want. I'm rambling but the fact remains that I would like to be able to change the tag priority.
Have a great one!

Is there a way to change the duration of a group of selected clips all at once?

Hi all,
I'm working with good old Premiere 6 on Windows 7.
Is there a way to change the duration of a group of selected clips all at once? If I have a large group of clips in my timeline that are all the same duration, once I've selected them all in a group, can I somehow change the frame number duration of all the clips at the same time?
I've found other things that can be done to a group of clips at the same time, but I can't find a way to change the duration of a group of selected clips.
Thanks,
digi

Thanks Jim and Bill,
In my efforts to work around the problems with the distortion and horizontal interlace lines that come when using the Motion Settings, I'm doing stop frame animation with hundreds and hundreds of layers in PSDs in multiple files placed in hundreds of one, four and six frame sections in Premiere, so if I find that I need to change the number of frames per clip in hundreds of consecutive clips (not actual duration of speed changes), then I need to pull out the right side of hundreds of frames after first moving them apart enough to allow for changing them if I'm making them longer.
These animations are different from the rotating reel animations in that they are for laterally moving subjects that are long streams of moving graphics and photos.
I read about "clip nesting", but I think that only applies to clips or groups of clips that are the same, whereas my clips are each from different imported layers times 125 or so, consecutively placed one after another to create the laterally moving stop frame animation.
Now I've tried johnbmx4christ's alternate method of creating rotations that was just posted on the other thread about the rotation distortion, but that method results in the same oblong distortion and messed up looking horizontal interlace lines.
What a can of worms.
Thanks,
digi

Is there a way to change the color of the Bezier Curves and points to a different color other than black I find it perplexing while setting points and curves working on a photo that needs to be separated from it's background for placement on transparent

Is there a way to change the color of the Bezier Curves and points to a different color other than black I find it perplexing while setting points and curves working on a photo that needs to be separated from it's background for placement on transparent backgrounds. Any thoughts?

Yes. Well, sort of: instead of a "path", set the pen tool to "shape" in the tool properties. Then set the fill colour to transparent, and the stroke colour to the colour you want. You can also set the stroke width.
Not perfect, but at least you can see the path more clearly - the anchor points and handles still remain the default colour. Open the path panel, and right-mouse click the path shape to create a selection based on that shape. The Paths panel menu also allows you to create work paths based on that shape.
Unfortunately when you try to move the handles the black thin outline appears again until you release the mouse button.
This is one of several things that works better in Photoline: in Photoline, once the path is set to a specific colour, editing the path uses the actual colour and stroke width. which is extremely handy for creating path based selection with awkward background colours and/or a high resolution screen. In Photoline the handles and bezier points are also much, much larger, which makes it rather simpler to work with as well - especially on a higher resolution screen. And when selected the handles and points are a clear red with a black outline - again easier to spot and identify. I just works better, in my opinion.

FCPX: When applying the keyer to green screen, is there a way to change the resulting color from black to another color (cream, blue, etc)?
