Format for single frame numbered graphic sequences?

Hi, I'm working on a HDV 1080p25 project.
The footage has been shot on a Canon EOS 7, and looks perfect.
The client has also hired an animator to produce some sequences for editing in.
The animator is using 3DMax.
He's supplied a test set of numbered single frame jpg files, 1440 * 1080 (1:33 ratio) Progressive (no fields)
But once rendered on the timeline, pans in the animation look jerky.
What should I be asking him to render to best fit in the sequence?
Or should I put his files in a different sequence setting, and render them to something useful myself?
Unfortunately I think his system is very old (he says the files work perfectly for him in Premiere1.5) so I'm not sure what options will be available.
All help appreciated.
Thanks, Linda

Jim, thank you for taking an interest. Yes, it's quite possible that I'm being far too fussy, and that what I've got is acceptable.
I've uploaded a couple of test files to yousendit: perhaps you won't mind taking the time to look:
I got two sets of test files from the animator: one rendered "progressive", the other "lower fields"
I put both sequences on a HDV 1080p25 timeline, and rendered out to high quality mp4.
Here are the results:
1080p25_P.mp4

1080p25_LOWER.mp4
https://www.yousendit.com/download/dklyaXRIcVhLVlh2Wmc9PQ
I've watched both files so many times I can't tell the difference any more. I presume the progressive one should be right. But confirmation would be good.
If it would help, I could also upload the test images I have.
Thanks, Linda

  • Combining multiple WMI Queries for Single Step in Task Sequence?

    Hi there,
    since i couldn't find an answer on google i try to find the information here:
    i would like to use a multiple wmi query in a single step in task sequence.
    hat means i want to query fist if the Computer is a Laptop or not and then if yes, if it is from HP  Manufacturer.
    To find out if Machine is a Laptop i use the following wmi query:
    Select * from Win32_Battery WHERE (Batterystatus <> 0)
    To find out if the Machine is from Manufacturer HP i use the following wmi query:
    Select * from Win32_ComputerSystem WHERE Manufacturer LIKE "%HP%"
    my question: is it possible to combine those 2 queries?
    Like IF this is a Laptop AND IF it comes from HP, then install this type of software package?
    Thanks for your answers!

    unfortunely this did not work.
    i try to install specific software for all HP Laptops:
    but this software won't get installed on any HP Laptop. Message according to the logfile
    "The task sequence execution engine skipped an action because the condition was evaluated to be false"
    If i remove one of the WMI-Queries Installation works successfully.
    Can anyone point me what i might do wrong here?

  • Set WAIT_CURSOR for whole application, not for single frame

    Hello,
    I am trying to set the cursor to an hour glass while a process runs. The application uses serveral frames that are open at the same time. The problem I have is that the cursor is attached to the frame (frame.setCursor) so once I move off the frame to another one the curosr is no longer an hour glass and when I move backover the first frame the cursor does not change back to the hour glass.
    Is there any way to set the hour glass for the whole application?
    Cheers
    Andreas

    hi,
    write a new class for this: class CursorHandler
      private static Vector frames = new Vector ();
      public static void addFrame (JFrame f)
        frames.add (f);
      public static void setCursor (Cursor s)
        for (int i = 0; i < frames.size (); i++)
          JFrame f = (JFrame) frames.get (i);
          f.SetCursor (s);
    }then just do:CursorHandler.addFrame (this); //for all frames
    CursorHandler.setCursor (new Cursor (Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR)); //in any framegreetings,

  • If I want to make a single-frame importer, e.g. - for WebP image format, do I need to implement an SDK importer plugin? Are there any examples?

    The title says it all really. Was wondering if there's a simpler interface to implement which does not contain video or audio, but just a still frame image.
    I don't care about exporting this format from Premiere, just being able to read a single frame or a sequence of frames to be used as footage.

    Hi Rotem,
    A standard importer plug-in is the way to go for a still image importer.  You could start from SDK_File_Import in the SDK.  There is also a WebM plug-in on GitHub:

  • File formats for graphic standards manual

    I am developing a graphic standards manual for a university and will be providing art files for their logo in a number of formats for both inhouse use (PC Word, Powerpoint, Publisher, inhouse web master) as well as for outside professional vendor use (mac). I am a Mac print designer and know what I need to provide for their outside designers and vendors. Looking for advice on what formats to provide for their internal use. I need to make this as easy as possible for their internal staff to use or they won't use it. So I don't want to overwhelm them with more formats than needed. Do I need to provide separate Illustrator vector eps files for the pc and the mac...or would one version work for both? Do I need to provide separate tiff files for the pc and mac? Should I provide them jpegs as well as tiffs (I will be giving them tiffs at three sizes). pngs or giffs?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    I usually use pdf format for this kind of thing, although it's usually safest to outline fonts before distilling because PC fonts work differently than Mac fonts. Everyone can read pdfs and those that have the technical knowledge can open then in Illy or Freefoot* to extract the vectors and/or pictures.
    *Sorry Freefooters. No offense intended. It's just that "that application" is like Macbeth in the theatre. Not to be named in some circles :-)

  • Document Numbering Formats for Extended Fields

    Hi, experts.
         I want to create a document numbering formats for my extended fields.
         1) I want to add my document numbering format to Fine Tune Activity.

    Hi, Horst.
         Thanks,
         I read your docu. And tested the new feature.That's great.
         That is really a reasonable way to create number ranges.
         But here, what I want is to get a "numbering format" feature for my extension fields like the way I explained above.

  • Naming png sequence with specific frame numbers from After Effects

    I am currently using Media Encoder 7.2.2.29 and After Effects version 12.2.1, and I am running it on Mac OSX 10.8.2
    I am making an animated sequence in After Effects that after exporting I caught a few things I want to change throughout the piece.  I had rendered it out as a PNG sequence, so I would like to only replace the frames that need fixing.  How can I control the naming convention of the PNG files from Adobe Media Encoder?  Say I wanted to render frames 1 - 200, 370 - 400, and 500-600, how could I set up each sequence so it would keep the exact frame number from the composition in its name?  Right now I am just keeping track of which beginning and end frames I am using and will use Bridge to batch rename, but I would love to know if there is a way to set this up in the render. 
    Thanks!

    This sounds similar to the problem I'm having when using AME to render frame sequences from AE.  The frame numbers aren't treated the same way like when you just render right in AE.  No matter where your in and out is, it always starts at zero with me instead of retaining the frame numbers.  VERY frustrating and have no clue why the naming conventions are different.   Is this what you're talking about?

  • Sequencing images in iphoto slideshow for photo frame playback via flash drive

    I have created a slide show in iphoto and saved it to a flash drive.  I want the show to play in a particular sequence.  On the computer that works.  When playing the show via the flash drive on my Pandigital Photo Frame, however, the images randomize.  The images have numbered filenames, and the shuffle function on the photo frame is turned off.  What do I need to do differently?

    When I connected the frame to the computer, no photo files showed, not even when I added the flash  drive to the frame.
    The sequence of the files on the flash drive is numerical, just what I am after.  Something seems to be happening within the frame.  In addition, while I have placed no files into the frame's internal memory, and none show up, when I play the slideshow, files that I once had in the slideshow file but later deleted, still appear!? 

  • Single Frame with Back and Next Jbutton support for Swing

    Hi All,
    I need a help regarding to th JFrame.
    I have to design a tool with Back and next button with a single frame. With Next button action i should move to a new Frame content and with Back button i should back to the previous one.
    How should i proceed?
    Thanks a lot in advance.

    1) That's a Swing question. There a {forum:id=950} forum.
    2) This is a very common need. There is no built-in widget in the JDK, and a lot of custom approaches, including in libraries. Google for "Java Swing wizard"
    3) If you roll your own, the simplest way, as far as the GUI layer goes, is to stuff your panels in a CardLayout, and have your buttons switch the current "card". Very simple: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/card.html
    4) The trick may be in keeping the "business logic" in sync (if for example panel 2 depends on processing info from panel 1). If you're new to java and Swing, make sure you understand objects and references

  • Set Graphics to Single Frame by Default

    Is there anyway to make graphics always default to Single Frame instead of Loop when you drag them from library to stage? It's kind of a pain to go to Properties > Looping > Options: Single Frame every time I drag a graphic instance. Thanks.

    Nope, no one ever responded. Maybe it doesn't exist.

  • Import image sequence including negative frame numbers:  -072 thru 300

    I use Quicktime pro to create movie clips from 3D frame stacks. I then use the QT clips in final cut studio to do my editing.
    my 3D app has the capability of generating "negative" frames..that is, frames prior to 0. You can use this when you have a scene all set up, and want to add something which happens before all the other things you've set up; rather than time-shifting everything else foreward, you simply add the new element prior to the 0 point.
    QT Pro appears unable to cope with this. It sees the frames with negative frame numbers as being part of a different sequence, so that it will pull in from -072 thru -001, then stop. it also will begin with frame -001, ending on -072, making the clip appear backwards when it is played.
    Clicking on the Name column so that -072 is first, doesn't make a difference.
    Is there a workaround to this from the Quicktime end of things?
    thanks!
    r

    Not that I'm aware of.
    QuickTime Player Pro image sequence files must be "sequential" and it will import in that order.
    "Negative" numbers are not placed before "positive" values and you'll need to rename the files prior to import.
    Sorry.

  • I am having a rendering issue where some of my layers will disappear for one single frame.

    Whenever I render my comp, some of my layers disappear for a frame or two then they come back. When the frames are gone they give a black flicker effect. This seems like a render issue because in my RAM preview it works perfectly fin. Any thoughts? 

    Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like version of AE, a timeline screenshot, render settings and so on. I doubt that there is a technical issue, you simply mess up your framerates and have keyframes set in such a way that when a different framerate is used, the temporal sampling is hitting blank spaces.
