Flv seekbar and timecode help

I am tring to have my seekbar and timecode start from zero at
the begining of each cuepoint that i have. Does anyone know of a
way to do this.
thanks in advance

That might be part of the problem. But, that aside, we can actually capture the material reliably if, under the capture settings we tell FCP to warn about any timecode breaks AFTER capturing instead of during or making a new clip.
That might be the WHOLE problem. The fact that you can capture if you turn the warning off only means FCP is not going to tell you you've had breaks until capture is done. And as Loyed has said, TC is very important if you ever need to recapture the footage.
Although some get away with capturing via USB, it is not recommended and this is one of the problems you would expect to see as a result.

Capturing and Timecode Help

Hi,
We're capturing DV tapes from a deck using a firewire cable to our Macbook and a USB cable to our external drive for the scratch disk.
We're having trouble capturing - trying to capture each entire tape - but after short varied times with each tape, usually about a minute, the capturing stops with FCP saying it's locating a timecode break. Problem is that it never locates it and the timecode breaks are in the middle of shots, not in shooting breaks when the camera was turned off.
Any ideas? Thank you for your help.

FLV Playback and Seekbar on different native windows in one Air application

Hello Everyone. I'm trying to make a simple video playback AIR application that utilizes the initial native window to house a transport control with a seekbar on it. Once the application launches, it creates a second (new) window on my second screen and places a FLVPlayback instance on that new window. Everything works just like it want it to except for one thing. When the seekbar and FLVplayback instance are not located on the same window stage, the seekbar handle sticks to the mouse when trying to scrub through the video.
I've added both the transport control and the FLVPlayback instance to the original native window as children and I have also added both of them to the new window as children and everything works just fine. It's only when they are separated and located on different stages that the seekbar acts up. When they are on the same stage, I can click on a point on the seekbar and the video jumps to that spot and continues to play and I can also scrub the seekbar, the video updates as I scrub, and when I release the mouse, the seekbar handle stays where I released the mouse. When they on separate stages, the seekbar handle continues to follow the mouse movement without releasing it. The video updates as the seekbar handle is moved due to it sticking to the mouse, but if I release the mouse, the handle is still moving with the mouse and the video is still being scrubbed. Like I said, everything works great except for this and I have reached my limit with time spent on this issue. Does anyone have any insight into this?
Here's my code for the project. This is my first AIR application, so I am coding it as I am learning, please be kind.

FLVPlayback SeekBar and volumeBar conflict

I am using the FLVPlayback component with the seperate play
button, back button, seekbar, volume bar (instead of using a skin).
The seekbar and volume bars worked perfectly individually, however
used together they seem to conflict - when I click on the volume
bar handle the seek bar handle flashes and the volume cannot be
controlled. I have also had it the opposite way round too. I cannot
work out how to fix this.
I have read a few reports that this is a bug with Flash 8,
and that the Flash 8 FLVPlayback Component Update 1.0.1 fixes this
with replacement files. I have also read that this bug has not been
resolved with CS3. However I started my project on Flash 8 and then
moved on to CS3 so cannot use the update (the files to replace are
all different).
I would appreciate any help on this.

I need to re-submit the entire code since it has to be
something therein, since I did a document and I had no problem but
when I use this code I have a problem with the seek and volume not
working together.

Adding a toolTip to FLV seekbar component

Does anyone know how to add a toolTip to the FLV seekbar
component? I have been banging my head against the wall far too
long for something as simple as this...
It's a quick an easy fix for the play/pause, stop buttons. I
added in a movie clip that appears on the rollover state of the
button. The seekBar is handled differently and there is not a
rollover state in that component. I tried adding in an invisible
movieClip over the handle that contains a my toolTip button. I feel
like the code is blocked out and I can't get an AddEventListener to
work within the component. I ran trace statements for willTrigger
and hasEventListener and both came up positive for being able to
handle a mouseEvent. I am not sure why this will not work.
Any thoughts would GREATLY be appreciated.
Thanks.
descin

To my knowledge, the rollOver event will not work if the clip
is invisible. Instead, try changing it's alpha to 0. With it's
alpha at 0, the clip will still appear invisible but the events
will fire. This will present another problem though. When you click
on the seek area to seek somewhere else in the movie, you'll
actually be clicking on your alpha = 0 movieclip. So, if you want
the clip to still seek, you'll have to add a seeking function
yourself to a click event on your alpha = 0 movieclip.

Media Encoder Now ONLY exporting F4V, FLV, MP3, and H.264

I've been using AME (CS 5.5 DP) for a few weeks to batch encode WMV and AVI files to QuickTime ProRes422(LT). It's been working great.
Starting today, AME no longer exports to QuickTime. The ONLY options I have for export are F4V, FLV, MP3, and H.264. What gives?
Re-installing CS5.5 did not help, nor did trashing the preferences. I did not update QuickTime or make any system changes.
Any advice would be great.
~PH

One of my coworkers just pointed out to me that what may have occurred is a failure of the licensing system. QuickTime export from AME isn't included in the trial version of Design Premium CS5. It may have occurred that the software "lost" its activation and started behaving like the trial version.
If this is the problem, then the most certain way of fixing the issue is to uninstall and then reinstall the CS5 software and reactivate it (re-enter the serial number).

Unable to opn FLV files and more with newest Quicktime vs 7 Pro

Hi and thanks in advance -
Suddenly I cannot open FLV files and I have the Flip4Mac etc plugins. NO LUCK. This is a waste of money patience and time ... or does anyone know of a way to create harmony in the cacophanous quicktime wannabe world. I have a new macbook which I adore and I am ready to throw it down the loo.
PLEASE help. It's much appreciated.
Sandy
macbook dual core intel os 10.4.9 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

FLV is Flash Video. QuickTime isn't used (normally)
to view them and most of use use the free Flash
Player and its browser plug-in.
The free Perian http://perian.org/ component may help
you.
hi and many thanks for the advise - stupid of me not to see that the flv = flash. I have had the perian plugin installed and running 100 percent for some time.
I'll give it another go nonetheless and again thanks for the input! BTW the flash player has been running fine too. Perhaps a conflict?

Software update and iLife help not working in Admin account

For the last few weeks (maybe since iLife 11 was installed) software update and iLife help has quit working on the single administration account on my iMac. All works fine on the secondary accounts.
If I try to use software update it says everything is up to date, even though I know there are updates available that can be seen if checking from a different account on the machine. In iLife, if I try to access the help files it tells me I need to download them. I click to download and after a few seconds it takes me back to the front help page and I then go through the entire process again but the help download never happens. On secondary accounts the help files work no problem.
I've tried many of the tips for deleting helpfile plists, but nothing seems to work for me.
Can any kind person list for me everything I should look to delete or move in the account to get these things working again?
It would be much appreciated!

Since the issue is specific to your original user account, you can proceed in two ways. One is to log into your new account, make a list of the preference files (plists) located in /username/Library/Preferences/, including any in the ByHost subfolder, log back into the original account, move everything on that other account's list from the original account's Preferences folder into a newly created folder on the Desktop, log out and back in, and see if the problem goes away. If so, you can copy the ones in the Desktop folder (one at time) back into /Preferences/, restart, and see if the problem returns. If so, you've identified the corrupt/conflicting one. Continue with all of them until isolating the bad ones. That'll save you the trouble of resetting preferences.
The second way is much more detailed and I'll not burden you with the steps unless the above doesn't fix the issue.

A follow up question to Introducing Apple Recommends, Manage Subscriptions, and This Helped Me

In Introducing Apple Recommends, Manage Subscriptions, and This Helped Me it was written
Now anyone can click "This helped me" to say thanks to helpful members. When several people mark the same post, it will earn a gold star and appear at the top of the discussion, so it’s easier for others to find. The poster will also earn five reputation points for a job well done.
Does anyone know (or is it written anywhere) just how many is 'serveral'? Is it decided on the fly? Or does it depend on the phase of the moon?
Will the points be awarded to the poster only once, or if say 100 people mark it as helpful will more then 5 points be awarded?
Sounds like a really good system but it seems that a bit more thought should have gone into it, no? Or at least the explanation could be clearer.
Ciao.
(Another question) Can the original post (this one) get marked as helpful also? Imagine earning points for posting :-)

Howdy GeoCo et al
I sort of agree with this new "Helpie-ette" deal. I wonder why while at this portion of the UX they didn't address the ongoing issue of the "irrevocable nature " of the OP awards of the traditional Green Stamp and Gold Star - I have made the mistake (once) but I see the silliest things marked Solved frequently. THAT is bad for business in that it gives false visual info and false statistical results.
We'll see... BTW, the [People] TAB itself is the only new thing (the CONTROL in the TAB bar) - the URL has always been alive and well if one knew to add " /people "

Hi All,
I am so angry frustrated and fed up with BT its not real and after a month of useless customer service people in every country in the world I have decided to get ofcom involved as BT just dont care at all.
I have been a customer for BT for about 7 years and always paid my bills ontime and have many time in the past recommended BT (Not anymore) alot not only to friend but also to businesses.
After a messy split with my partner i had to move from my property so on the 6th of January i called BT's moving team and got the process moving to move all my services (phone, broadband & bt vision) the guy was really helpful and said that the old phone and services would be disconnected on the 17th Jan and broadband the same day, he then went on to say that an engineer would have to come to my property on the 21st to check that the bt vision would work correctly as there was low bandwith where i lived but thought it would be ok.
So i thought great all done but on the 17th nothing happened at the new property i call CS and the lady did try to help and after talking to the old line user said a mistake had happed with a cancellation and they would sort it all out by the 19th so dont worry. 19th comes nothing so another call to CS they could not work it out so put me through to a guy in the UK who could not have been more unhelpful if he tried. He said that the engineer had reported a problem but i would have to wait. At this point i thought i would complain as i had not had any comms from BT at all i had to do all the calling even though they say on the website if the date are moved they will contact you.
i tried the only complaint messaging service this time. The guy tried to be helpful but then informed me that my order was cancelled? Why i asked he said he did not know but would have to call me back. Well he did call back the next day and still had no idea what had happened and i have now not heard a thing from him since last thursday.
On Monday i logged into my account and now it shows i wont get any connections until the 7th of feb so i called and said its a joke and whats going on. The guy said what do you expect you only placed the order yesterday? I asked what? and then looked at the only account and true enough the order date had changed to the 23rd and they could not see the previous order even though the order number had not changed. Its a disgrace as i think you will find the moving team dont work sundays so i know someone has changed that so it did not look so bad. The person said he would escalate the connection (I bet he did not as naff all has happened). He said he would get his manager who i have to say i dont think was i just think he passed me to his mate to try and get me off the line. He said they would get it sorted and come back to me with 24hrs and guess what Nothing.
So if you are a good customer and pay ontime this is what BT really thinks of you and will help you if things go wrong. I have got a complaint reference now and will be keeping a diary of events in order to contact Ofcom when it is all sorted and to post on onther forum the outcome and how i was dealt with.
Kinga

Well the useless system has done yet another update and useful as usual it now says my connection date for BT Vision is 26th Jan (2 days ago) but the phone and broadband will be 7th of Feb so that will be a full month since i placed the order and still nothing from anyone at BT.
Nothing about the original engineer visit or anything so this is going to roll on and on and the so called escalation, well they may as well said what can we say to you to get you off the line as i bet there is no such thing as escalition at all as so far all its done is push these so called dates further and further away.
Oh and here is a another nugget of so called customer service for you is you ask about compensation for all the calls, hassle and stress they say you cant have a thing as it says it in the terms & conditions. Oh well in that case why call you team customer services if you cant really stand the customers and cant admit when you make a massive mistake causing untold hardship to the customer that you would like to make up for it in someway.

IOS 8 - Disentangling Camera Roll and Photostream - help!

In iOS 8, Apple removed the “Camera Roll” and “Photostream” albums and collapsed them into a single stream of photos on the camera that can be accessed under “Collections”. “Collections” also includes all other photos otherwise loaded onto the phone, e.g., via iPhoto. This new arrangement upsets several familiar ways in which I’ve been using my iPhone and its camera, and I am wondering if anyone has any suggestions for how to recapture a few simple functions. (I have submitted Feedback on the elimination of the Camera Roll, and with this post I am looking for practical solutions to a series of new problems.)
Question #1. I maintained my Camera Roll as a reasonably-well curated set of maybe 300 photos & videos, taken on my phone, that I could pull up easily to show to people. I would like to know if there is a way to restore that functionality in iOS 8. “Recently added” does not go back far enough (one of my favorites was the very first photo I took with any iPhone, back in 2007); and “Collections” shows way too much – it includes everything in Photostream, as well as photos from Albums of scans, non-iPhone photos and other sources that I’ve synced to the phone with iPhoto. Thousands of photos. I also don’t care for the way in which Collections interrupts the thumbnails with date and location information.
Question #2. I kept Photostream turned on on my phone, because I liked the idea of automatically uploading photos to the cloud, particularly on trips when I was not in a position to download the photos directly to a computer for backup and safekeeping. However, now that Apple has eliminated the distinction between “photos in my pocket” and “photos in the cloud”, it appears that whenever I want to delete a photo from my phone (e.g. to save space) I must also delete the corresponding Photostream copy. Is there a way, with Photostream on, to delete local photos without also deleting the copy that has been uploaded to the cloud?
Question #3. I have a few old iOS devices that I let my kids use. They like to take photos and screenshots. Most of them are pretty stupid but once in a while they do something great. I’ve left Photostream on on those devices to see what they’re up to, and to capture the occasional gem. This was fine, when “Photostream” was a separate Album that I could look at, or not, as I chose. In iOS 8 however, all of their junk photos appear in “Collections” and are as much a part of my phone’s photo repository as the carefully-curated Camera Roll photos used to be. Is there a way to keep Photostream photos out of my “Collection”?
Question #4. I suppose someone could write an app that does nothing but display photos that were captured by, and reside physically, on the device. Perhaps someone already has, if anyone knows. Of course I’d prefer to use the native app for this function, but I’d take the function over nativity if I had to choose.
Question #5. Does anyone know (“know” – please no speculation, and nothing that an NDA forbids) how the iCloud Photo Library, which dropped back to beta in the final release of iOS 8, works? Does it provide the backup and safekeeping function of Photostream, along with the ability to view that set of photos separately? If so then I could turn off Photostream and at least get rid of that clutter.
Thanks for any and all help. And by way of reminder - https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html .

Here's one, eh, kludgy fix for Question #1. I don't exactly recommend it - it can be pretty laborious - but in the end it seems to get me back to about where I started with my Camera Roll.
Go into "Collections" and scroll back to about the date at which you expect to find your first native iPhone photo. (I have many imported photos that predate iPhone, so I can't just look at the first ones.) Tap through until you are looking at a single photo. Look at the bottom. If it displays a "Favorites" heart, it's physically on your iPhone (and as best I can tell, was taken by the device). Tag it as a favorite. Swipe to the next photo. Skip if it shows no Favorites heart - that means it's not on your phone - and tag it if it does.
At the end of this process (did I mention it's laborious?), you should have a Favorites album that matches the photos that were on your Camera Roll when you upgraded to iOS 8.

PE 9 and 10 Help PDF Invalid List View Descriptions

Bottom line: Has anyone reported on these problems, and, if so, what is being done about them?
Until proven otherwise, I believe that Premiere Elements 9 and 10 Help PDF requires editing of its List View Descriptions which are appropriate for at least version 8.0/8.0.1, 7, and 4, but not versions 9.0/9.0.1 and 10. Please refer to the Help PDF Projects/View Clip Properties
for version 10:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premiere...B-312BB3F13B11
for version 9:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Premiere...355c-7f98.html
Problems in this regard for Premiere Elements later than version 8.0/8.0.1 and not for versions 8.0/8.0.1, 7, and 4:
1. List View Properties display in text for export video file, no Data Rate Analysis graphs
2. List View Columns, no ADD to add your own columns, so only Adobe built in ones, and none of the Adobe built in ones, like Client, allow for editable text.
Comments:
Data Rate Analysis
I had read somewhere that these graphs appear for tape based rather than non tape based imports. Mini test: Premiere Elements MPEG4.avi import and DV AVI export of the MPEG4.avi. Results: Version 8.0/8.0.1 Properties for import in text format (file properties) only and Properties for export in text format (file + export properties) as well as display of Data Rate Analysis graph. Versions 9 and 10 Properties for import (file properties) and for export (file + export properties), both import and export text only.
List View Columns
1. If I look at the project.prel WordPad documents and the Client Column information there in each, I do not see any difference.
2. If I create a Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 project, set List View column choices Comments and Client, type in the comments and client information, and save/close/and re-open the project in:
a. Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1, the Comments columns and its information will not appear; the Client column will appear, but its information will not be editable. (The 9.0/9.0.1 version does have Client, but not Comments, as a built in choice under Edit Columns)....the latter might explain why no Comments column except...
b. Premiere Elements 10, neither the Comments nor Client columns and their information will appear. (The 10 version does have Client, but not Comments, as a built in choice under Edit Columns.)
One of the Potential Problems:
It is well accepted that, if you edit a project from an earlier version in a later version, you cannot go back to the earlier version for editing. So, one potential problem that I see in all this is the loss of this type of information on upgrading from 8.0/8.0.1 and earlier....
a. If you create a Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 or earlier project which includes Comments and Client information in these List View Column choices, you will lose all that information in version 10 and have only non-editable Client information in version 9.
And, yes we have filed an Adobe Feature Request/Bug Form on this one.
Any comments about what I may have overlooked in trying to get those Help PDF List View Descriptions to work for me would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I definitely agree that the Help files could use some updating, Tony.

Windows XP Clean Install – What I discovered and the help I need

Windows XP Clean Install – What I discovered and the help I need
I previously had a problem with my Laptop dying randomly you can read about it in the thread entitled Computer dies Randomly (Battery also dead) click to view
Before I realised the solutions, I thought that maybe my Laptop had become infected with a Virus and decided it would be prudent to do a clean install of the Windows XP operating system.
Everything went perfectly and thought a clean install was a good opportunity to download the “XP Service Pack 3” SP3 and did so, it seemed very quiet though and that’s when I realised I had no sound…
I downloaded all of the sound drivers I could find on the Lenovo site for 3000 N100 (I knew from previous experience that the “SOUNDMAX” driver is the only one that actually works with this 3000 N100) in order to install this you have to install the Realtek HD audio driver, but in order to install that you have to install some other Driver/Soft that only works with SP1 or SP2 if you try to install it with SP3 it will say that you don’t need the file as your Service pack is newer than the file you want to install, this is understandable as SP3 is not final as of yet (but it’s good to know).
My next problem was that my extra RAM was not detected, this was fixed by updating the BIOS, after installing all of the System updates, PC Doctor, everything I could find for 3000 N100 I decided to rest, I pushed the Lenovo care button and it did not work, I found a hot key driver and installed it but still the Lenovo care button does not work, previously when I pushed this button it would bring up the Lenovo menu but now it’s just a dead button, Does anyone know how to get this button working again?
I am pretty sure that everything else is working fine now, just that button not working is very annoying, is there a set routing of installs you must do to get everything working, i.e. bios 1st audio 2nd system update 3rd etc...
Please help, I hope I have helped you...

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Ok first everything works now... except the Lenovo Care button, I just posted the other stuff cause it might help other members, I have searched the forum for an anwser to this problem but there was only one anwser (suggesting to uninstall the driver restart and re-install it) and it did not result in a working Lenovo Care button...
I don't beleive the Lenovo keyboad drivers are in any way related to the Service pack 3 as they do not use the Service pack files, to back this up I also had the same problem when Service Pack 2 was installed...
The Lenovo Care button works fine on Boot up screen to access the rescue and recovery software (So the mechanics of the button are fine) but once Windows XP loads it is just a dead button, I remember it used to open up the Lenovo Care Start bar, I got it working once in the past but I can't remember what I did, I thought someone here might know the anwser...
