Feet and Frames burn in

I know that the new version has a timecode reader burn in function, but we need both TC and Feet and Frames on the movies we create for our sound department. Does anyone know if a plugin could be created to accomplish this?

but we need both TC and Feet and Frames on the movies we create for our sound department. < </div>
No help here, sorry, just curious.
How are you getting feet and frames from inside FCP? I'm only vaguely familiar with coding systems for film (sorry, haven't shot film for 20 years) but I'm not aware that FCP can read them with the standard TC filter.

I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD. I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally and vertically. I shoot with a camcorder Canon

I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported
and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD.
I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally
and vertically.
I shoot with a camcorder Canon Vixia HF10. The camera has been set to deliver HD quality (1920x1080). But I have accidentally filmed with a frame rate of 60 (?).
When I import the films in iMovie I have been asked if I want to change to frame rate 30 (instead of 25). I have chosen 30.
Could it be the setting of a frame rate 60 in my camcorder that causes jerkiness when panning or what else?

Photos get auto-cropped and ken burns. stop it.

Trying to do a stop motion. don't need the photos to movie. Cant get imovie to stop auto cropping and ken burns-ing the photos on import from iphoto. Would be fine, but i can't bulk adjust them either, tired of going through frame by frame and putting it back to fit. help.

When you start a new project, or to change a project you are currently working on, go to FILE/PROJECT PROPERTIES, and you can change the default behaviour for initial photo placement from Ken Burns to either FIT or CROP. Crop will make the photo fit the frame exactly by cropping off the top abd bottom. FIT will make the entire photo fit by letterboxing.
If you make your photos have the same aspect ratio as your project (either 16:9 or 4:3), then FIT and CROP produce the same result, and nothing is lost from the photo.
The FILE/PROJECT PROPERTIES will only change photos that you add going forward.
To change a bunch of photos that are already there, change one photo using the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. Then, with the photo still selected, EDIT/COPY.
Now, select all the photos you want to change by holding down the Command Key as you click, so you can select multiple photos.
Now, click EDIT/PASTE ADJUSTMENTS.../CROP ADJUSTMENTS.

I use a GoPro 960 30. When I use imovie it cuts off the feet and the head

I am using a GoPro at 960 30
When i use imovie it cuts off the feet and the head.
how do I prevent that?

Here are some things to check.
If possible, set the aspect ratio of your project to the same aspect ratio as your camera. This will be either 16:9 or 4:3.
If your clips or photos are not the same as your project's aspect ratio, you can select a project clip and
click on the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool. FIT will make the movie fill out the screen by Letterboxing. Crop will cut off the edges to fill the screen.
Finally, you may have analyzed for stabilization, and then had stabilization automatically applied in your project. Stabilization works by zooming in. You can select a project clip and open the Clip Inspector. You can turn off stabilization, or you can move the slider so there is less zoom.

I am trying to create a simple animated gif in Photoshop. I've set up my frames and want to use the tween to make the transitions less jerky. When I tween between frame 1 and frame 2 the object in frame two goes out of position, appearing in a different place than where it is on frame 2. Confused!

Hi Melissa - thanks for your interest. Here's the first frame, the second frame and the tween frame. I don't understand why the tween is changing the position of the object in frame 2, was expecting it to just fade from one frame to the next.

Convert Feet and Inch to cm (and vice versa)

I need some help with conversion of height. The form was designed by the department and there is a field where one need to enter the height of the participant.
The height can either be in cm or in Feet + Inches (not just inches). Once a value has been entered in cm, it converts it automatically to feet and inches. If the user enter the height in feet and inches, it converts it immediately into cm. Much like the kg to lbs conversion fields in the attached document. I have been able to convert the height in cm into Feet and inches e.g. 165 cm = 5'5". However I am not sure how to do the opposite.
The problem is the way it has been designed as there is a box for Feet and another box for Inches. If the other measure was in Inches only, it would have been easier and that would be like the kg to lbs conversion.
I have tried multiple way to try to the conversion, but none would do it exactely like the kg to lbs conversion.
Here is the form:
https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=j8kksFor3eVIg6M07CdkmA

I tried the following code, but obviously does not work. The problem reside in the fact that I have to reunite 2 fields to get the height in cm and am not sure how to handle that.
var v1 = (function () {
    var f_source = getField("Feet");
    var result;
    if (event.source && event.source === f_source) {
        result = f_source * 30.48 ;
        event.value = result == 0 ? "" : util.printf("%.0f", result);
var v2 = (function () {
    var f_source = getField("Inches");
    var result;
    if (event.source && event.source === f_source) {
        result = +f_source * 2.54 ;
        event.value = result == 0 ? "" : util.printf("%.0f", result);
event.value = v1 + v2;

HT5287 If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?

If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?
Or am I missing the bigger picture?

As long as you have a Superdrive or an external burner/drive, burning, watching, installing, etc. from CD or DVD will work just fine. And so will sharing.

I have two computers. my laptop has os 10.6.8. my mac mini has 10.5.8, hence no app store. can i buy lion on my laptop and then burn a dvd of it and install it on my mac mini or does it have to be installed on the same computer it is bought with?

CS4 Problem with Matt and Frames

Hi,
I am new to CS4. I have CS4 Extended. I also have Photoshop Elements 6, which has a choice of a drop shadow Matt and a frame gallery with many examples to choose from. See Matt and Frame examples from Elements 6 applied to photos here:

However, I cannot find any Mattes and Frames in CS4. Where are they located? Are they included CS4 at all?
Please advise.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Den

Other than a very few, I would say the frames detract from the art within, because the frame has more texture and depth than the art.
Compositionally, areas of high contrast or fine texture or large shadows draw attention to themselves. This art is relatively flat and the frames seem more the subject than the art.
I realize this is likely because the frames are canned from PSE and you may not have much choice other than the colors.
Your initial post doesn't really ask a question, but I assume you are asking how to create similar frame effects within Photoshop as you can from Elements. Photoshop doesn't come with as many high-level things built-in from Adobe, but there are a wealth of plug-ins that extend Photoshop's capabilities, www.autofx.com is a place to look, or better yet, is to teach yourself how to accomplish things, by looking for tutorials or reading books.

I would like to create a slide show and then burn to a DVD. I may be interested in adding music. Should I use iPhone, iMovie or a simple Powerpoint?

I am going to be creating a slide show and then burning it to a couple of DVDs. I have used PPT in the past for simple slide shows for speaking engagements, but I am interested in adding music to this slide show. What is the best/easiest application to use? iMovie, iPhoto or Powerpoint?
Thanks!
Mike

burning it to a couple of DVDs
Is it your intention to create video DVDS that can be played on TV sets via DVD players? If so you'll need a video DVD authoring application like iDVD.
Export the slideshow out of iPhoto as a QT movie file via the Export button in the lower toolbar. For iPhoto 9.4.3 and earlier select Size = Medium or Large. For iPhoto 9.5 and later selct 480p.
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

File name punctuation WILL cause MP3 and DVD burn errors – workaround?

OK, I’ve seen TONS of questions about problems burning MP3 format CDs and DVD. I’ve been having this problem for quite a while and today I just got ****** off enough to do some deep research. I seek to share my finding and suggestions for work arounds.
THE PROBLEM
iTunes can burn regular CDs since the song file name is not actually put on the CD. The CD or DVD burner work for burning audio discs and with other applications. All the burn preferences are set correctly and have been validated. But when you attempt to burn an MP3 CD or DVD (for backup, transfer or for player that play MP3 discs), iTunes may do the following:
Checking media (iTunes will ask: “You have inserted a DVD. Are you sure you want to create a Data DVD? answer yes, it’s a blank DVD disc in a working DVD burner)
Checking playlist
Burning disc… initializing
"The attempt to burn a disc failed. An unknown error occurred (xxxx).”
THE CAUSE
Many times the error is due to song, album or artist names with unacceptable punctuation in them. iTunes does not tell you why and the error message and Google searches and Apple support/discussion forum details are sketchy… but in most cases its “illegal” punctuation in the song name, artist or album. I isolated at lest the apostrophe ‘ there are probably other illegal name punctuations too.
The cause my be explained by Apple following ISO or Joliet file name specifications or file name length specifications for CD or DVD discs. But since this appears to be undocumented (to the iTunes user) there is a need to understand the restrictions to allow error free disc burning.
THE CHALLENGE
Even if the playlist name does not have punctuation, if ANY playlist song name/artist/album does, the DVD burn will fail. Removing the offending songs from the playlists results in a successful burn but hey, I WANT those other songs too!
POSSIBLE WORK AROUNDS
Changing actual song file name – even if you change the name in iTunes (Get Info, Info, change name, artist, album) the actual song file names are not updated and continue to have the punctuation error resulting in a burn failure.
It appears that the actual file name needs to be changed. This can be a challenge. If you change only the file name you need to add modified file back into iTunes and the old file link is now broken. This is a bigger problem if that song file is in multiple playlists (the old ones are broken and the new one needs to be substituted). This is a REAL problem if you have 2,800 songs with an ‘ in them (like I do).
LETS WORK TOGETHER AND SHARE RESULTS
I’ve seen many, many unanswered questions about iTunes CD and DVD burning problems that will likely be solved if we can collectively develop and document a workaround. So, here is
THE QUESTION
What is the best way to rename (or retag) MP3 song files to eliminate punctuation and update iTunes and playlists so these songs can be burned to CD or DVD without violating the undocumented illegal punctuation restriction? The work around may differ for OS X vs Windows users so help on both would be appreciated.
Thank you all in advance for your help!

been searching myself to create my own cdg for use in universal karaoke players. Kjams appears to offer the most hope for all I want to do. although there's something new now called Aria which promises to do a bunch of stuff for 79 $. Otherwise, all that I want to do as listed by the original poster, would cost me Kjams lite, plus the burn plug in is extra, plus I'd need the kjams producer as I would be building a cdg by adding the synced lyrics to something I've removed the vocal from, on Audacity program. if I go with Kjams, those 3 softwares, it will cost me 150, while I'm so jealous all those PC karaoke singers have free software for karaoke they can download.
I've been buying my cdg discs at 1.99 a pop, but they don't have special songs I want to perform. Aria for Mac might just do it all but I don't need the "scratch" sound they are pushing. that makes me steer away from the software.
experimenting with the Imac 10.6 idvd movie quicktime might work. I made a few cdg but have not tried them in the club karaoke machine yet. I added the lyrics to tuneprompter which is a free software that lets you add and sync the lyrics to the music with the spacebar. thats fun. but it's all in experimental thing so far. I know Kjams does not let you add lyrics and sync them yourself. you are supposed to import cdg to kjams that are already available and pay for them. in this case I want to find my own special tunes. good luck to you. there's one other thing but it's expensive. buying software which turns your mac into a windows platform by partiioning it and you start up in one or the other. that's also about 100-150 software.

Printing of Graphics and Frames ,not coming properly in dot matrix printer

Hi Experts,
I have one smartform layout for Good receipt note,have used the Logo and Frames .when i am printing in the Laser printer.everything is k.when i am printing in Dot matrix Printer(OKI Microline 380 24pin printer).the Logo and Frames are missing,but I could able to see the Print Priview Properly.
Could you give any urgent solution.it is very urgent.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
hpp

I agree with you that printing of Logo & Framesare not very supportive in Dot Matrix Printer.
You can ask the Basis consultant to check & change the printer setting & may be it may work, as you have already mentioned that it is OK in Laser Printer. The Dot Matrix printer is currently unable to read the Logo & frame for printing.

Is there a way i can burn a dvd to my macbook, then edit sections of that dvd and re-burn those sections i edited to a new dvd?

Is there a way i can burn a dvd to my macbook, then edit sections of that dvd and re-burn those sections i edited to a new dvd?

A DVD is not editable but there is a work around. Create a disk image with your Disk Utility program and put your content on it. When you are finished, burn the DVD using the disk image as your master. Don't delete the image. When you are ready to make edits, edit the content on the disk image and use it to burn the next DVD.

Which media server protocols enable frame accurate seeking and frame stepping in players?

Hi,
... and thank you in advance for taking the time to respond. I am evaluating different protocls for different client platforms, and I'd like to know the following...
Which media server protocols enable frame accurate seeking and frame stepping in players? (It appears that RTMP does. However, what about HDS? What about HLS?)
Why is it that some do and some don't? (Intuitively, this would seem to be more an issue of the player than the protocol, but then maybe it has something to do with the buffers and the specific information passed to the client.)
For those protocols that do support frame accurate seeking and frame stepping in players, does the addition of Access DRM protection have any effect? (Intuitively, I would say no, but then maybe there are configuration changes needed in AMS to make it work.)
Thanks!

I searched for a DVD player with a jog shuttle -- and you're right. They're all but impossible to find! I havent' found one made in the past 5 years!
I don't know of any way you could accomplish the same thing with software either.
Most DVD players have slow-motion and frame-by-frame features. (Even my cheap $40 Toshiba.) That may be the closest to it.

Feet and inches ' and "

I have an application that requires height in feet/inches.
Obviously php/mysql will have an issue with something like 6'2"

I would store the value as inches:

x=input.split(/[^\d]/);
return x[0]*12+ +x[1];
