Funky effect - extra frames? hard to explain (link)

Hi all,
I'm not much of a video guru--moreso a graphic design guy that has to do video stuff now and again Here's my dilemma:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuYvE4W7CLw
This video export is getting kind of a ghosting/trail effect when you see the car in motion, like it is leaving extra frames behind?
Details:
I'm on Premiere CS4
I've used a bunch of different export settings, but have only produced slight changes in this effect
It was filmed with a couple different cameras including: A flip cam (60fps), an HD handy cam (29.97fps), and a goPro Hero cam (29.97fps)
I'm thinking it has something to do with the flip cam's 60fps frame rate. Help is greatly appreciated!

First, neat "ride."
Next, it looks like an Interlacing issue, if I am lookng in the right places.
From the Source Footage specs., it appears that you are shooting everything Progressive, and then Exporting to Progressive. Is that correct?
If not, then check the Interlacing of each camera.
Now, CS5 & 5.5 will handle mixed footage, better than CS4. I am not saying that will be the "fix," but something to keep in the back of your mind, if you are on a 64-bit OS.
I saw, what I would also call "ghosting" in some of the track shots, where the auto was traveling across the lens axis. That could be an issue with the effective shutter angle of the camera.
Just some thoughts, and good luck,
Hunt

InDesign Exporting to ePub adding extra frames

When I export my InDesign file to ePub I keep getting extra frames (gray rectangles) in the ePub. I tried different export settings but keep getting the same result. What am I doing wrong? Here is link to ePub. please help!

Okay, I figured out what was wrong. I had two frames on top of each other in my indesign file. I was anchoring the top frame and using it to create Articles in the Artciles pane. The extra frame behind my images was used to create a shadow effect. Next time, I'll just use shadow effect.

Hover effect without it actually being a link?

I have some text that displays more text when you click on
it, and FAQ script. To help users know that it will do something I
wanted to make it act like the other links on my page that bold
when you mouse over them. I achieved this by putting a # for a link
location. Worked great but then I realized that its now refreshing
the page bumping you up to the top and loosing your spot.
Is their away to to get the hover effect without it actually
being a link?

To be honnest with you I don't know about your site
construction, I only
peeked at your DT, that's why I pasted the following in my
previous post:
<dt class="text_body" style="cursor: pointer;">
<span style="font-family: monospace;"></span>
<img width="11" height="8" alt=""
src="images/Bullet.jpg"/>
<u>
<a href="#">Contaminated Site Remediation Design and
Management</a>
</u>
</dt>
The inline styles and the empty span are not "elegant", but
that's ok. The
problem is that a DT cannot contain a UL and a UL cannot be
LI-free.
Also, you have BR elements between your DTs/DDs if I recall
and that's not
kosher either.

Extra frames appear in burned DVD

Can anyone tell me why my burned DVD, (that runs smoothly in FinalCutExpress, and in Preview mode in iDVD) has very quick EXTRA frames?? It is highly annoying, and very frustrating!!! The frames are definately NOT there in the FinalCut timeline, or iDVD preview, so where are they coming from?
Thanks!!!

You're right. It's not very well explained by the Help Menu IMO. Could use some refining. But I didn't write this thing so I can't really explain in detail. But I can show you an image of what I am referring to:

Doesn't sound like your own iDvd project has a movie or slideshow in the first box. But if there were, you simply select it (one click) and hit the delete key.
Suggestion-Go ahead and add it anyway to the first box there and then delete it like I said above. Sometimes iDvd needs a bit of a jolt to get working properly. That or dispose of the plist for iDvd from your Home folder (the one that looks like a house) > Libaray > Preferences > com.apple.iDvd.plist
Make sure to quit iDvd before disposing of this preference file by a simple drag and drop to the trash followed by a complete restart of your mac. Won't harm your mac nor your existing project. But you may need to address iDvd's preferences again / things like the apple logo on the menu (if you want it there or not). I always keep it deselected. Your choice.
Hope this helps.

Scene Detect 8 + 15 extra frames on every captured clip

When capturing HDV in CS5, using Scene Detect creates extra frames.
Imagine clip #1 when it captures its footage, instead of stopping at the end of the clip, it continues for another 15 frames into Clip #2 and tacks this on to the end of Clip #1.
It then starts to capture Clip #2 but first it rolls back (this is done by Scene Detect electronically. The tape does not actually roll back) into Clip #1 and starts the capture 8 frames back into Clip #1 before it continues capturing the footage and proceeds to repeat the 15 extra frames capture from Clip #3. Everything is repeated throught Clip #3, Clip #4, etc. until the end of the tape.
These things did not happen in CS3. This is a CS5 problem.
Essentially each clip starts with 8 frames of the previous clip and ends with 15 frames of the next clip. The extra frames contain both video and audio in perfect sync.
When capturing, I am making no adjustments on the frames control which is what the Adobe Service suspected. I ran a capture with them on line demonstrating the problem.
Although I can still edit with this footage, using scene detect, with 280 clips per hour tape, it is not pleasant removing 8 frames from the front and 15 frames from the back of each of the 280 clips.
Is there a solution to this problem or perhaps a quick-automatic way of removing the frames from each of the 280 clips?

Extra frame added on export?

my aiff file is 33 seconds and 18 frames long
when i compress it to AC-3 dolby 2.0, it comes out as 33 seconds and 19 frames.
which is screwing my loop up.
anyone know why this extra frame is added and how to prevent it?
thanks,
aj

You know, i optimized a video once, and it was very jerky when it played at about 40% speed (slow-motion), vs. when I import non-optimized..
I dont want to jump the gun yet, as the below doesnt really make sense, at least to me, BUT......
What I noticed is that the flickering of the clips with applied effects only happens when there an opening
transition in the very beginning of the project.. I placed a "fade-in" transition in the beginning so that the video fades in as it starts.... As soon as i removed it.. it exports fine, no flickering, no nothing, back to normal..
.... I also tried a few new small projects with and without the transition in the beginning and I would get the same pattern after export: with a trans in the beginning of the clip with video effect, -- it would blink after being exported.. As soon as beginning trans removed -- back to normal.. I know... i doesnt make sense...
I wonder if you can produce this:
[fade in trans] [normal clip] [clip with Dream effect] [some other trans] [clip with some other Effect]
and
[normal clip] [clip with Dream effect] [some other trans] [clip with some other Effect]
Thoughts?? I am scratching my head now!

Problem that's hard to explain (Video)

I made lots of bingo boards and it works laggy. Also now I have this problem that it looks like there is no text in print. It's hard to explain so I added a video.

I still
don't understand how installing a font could have
such a huge effect on Safari. Perhaps someone can
explain?
There are some non-Apple fonts which copy common names like Helvetica and Times but put undesired symbols or other stuff where the normal Latin letters should be. These fonts are constructed in such way that they confuse Safari and various other apps into displaying them instead of the real ones, especially when they are installed in Home/Library/Fonts, which gets priority over other locations. The most common culprits are Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic.

I had a second hard drive added to my Mac Pro. How do I format it and not effect my orginal hard drive?

I had a second hard drive added to my Mac Pro. How do I format it and not effect my orginal hard drive?

Just format it with Disk Utility as mentioned above. Select the new disk on the list at the left. Click the erase tab. Specify Mac OS Extended (Journaled) if not already specified and give the disk a name of your choice. Then click the erase button.
That's the simplest way to format a disk with a single partition (volum). If you want to create multiple volume (partitions) then click the Partition tab instead of Erase. You can then use then specify a number of volumes and size each volume by specifying its size or just dragging the slider in the bootm right of each partition. Give each a name as before and again Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Click Apply button to create the partitions.
Since you appear to be new at this just "play" with the erase and partition settings so you can become comfortable with them. So long as you have the new disk selected on the left you can't really hurt anything since it's a new disk and no data to loose. You can always go back and erase it back to a single partition.

Pr 2014 picking up an extra frame during export

I need to export every clip in a sequence as it's own file. I select an In/Out for the clip with an X and ask for an export on that portion. Some of them will get the last frame of the preceding clip tagged on to the front of the export. I thought it was AME doing this but it's a Pr problem.
I have footage shot at 59.94 which gets exported to 29.97. IF the clip marked In/Out for export starts on an odd frame, it gets the extra frame from the preceding clip. If it starts on an even frame, no problem.

Aside from ProRes being designed for editing, the short answer is that ProRes is a much less compressed, intra-frame codec and mp4 is a highly compressed codec which I believe is long GOP. You can Wiki the difference, but mp4 is designed for deliverables such as web uploads. The file sizes are small due to the compression.
ProRes is compressed, but not nearly as much, and the intra-frame nature of the codec makes for easy editing.
The real issue is that neither FCP nor Motion really like non-editing codecs like mp4, h.264, m2v. You may be able to get it to work, but more often than not, you'll just be setting yourself up for frustration.
While there will be slight quality loss from converting your video, it's not as drastic as analog generational loss. Chances are very good that you can go from mp4 to prores, back to mp4, and not be able to see any quality loss by eye.
Even in the digital world, it's best to start off with the highest quality master you can get your hands on, so that when you're working, you suffer the least amount of quality loss. But the state of compressors these days is so good as to allow us to work with lower res files and still finish with a quality that is extremely close, if not indistinguishable from the source.
Hope this helps.

Preview renders adding extra frames exponentially in Premiere Pro CC 2014

Having this strange anomaly happen when rendering previews. The preview render dialogue box starts adding extra frames and the thing becomes an exponential loop gradually moving to 100% but never reaching it even if the render is only 10 frames long.
On a Z800 with dual X5570 12GB RAM Intel processors Nvidia and Blackmagic Decklink 2 video cards.
It most seems to be happening around PPro generated title GFX and with dissolves. The strange thing is I can render small sections by setting discrete in/out render areas, but there is always a small section that won't render. This has just started happening on the latest 2014 update of CC.
Have been using CC for the previous 12+ months without incident, so it would seem to be something in the latest version. Not killing me, but it is a bit strange and kind of annoying.
Anyone else having a similar issue?
cheers Pete.

This sounds like bug that was fixed in the update released this morning (CC2014.0.1. aka, 8.0.1). Please let us know if the update does not resolve your exact issue.

Premiere pro cs4 is adding an extra frame to my sequences

Premiere Pro CS4 is adding an extra frame to my sequences so that when I import them into Encore an extra, black frame plays at the end. In the program monitor my sequences stop at the frame I have set the sequence to end at but the counter on the bottom right of the program monitor shows that an extra frame has been added. This duration, not the duration I have set for my sequence, is what Premiere Pro is importing into Encore. I have spoken to Adobe technical help and the representative was having the same issue but she could not resove it. Help! Thank you!

Hello Wil.
For various reasons, I always add Black Video to the end of my Sequences, to allow for any extra Audio Units. As I also Export DD 5.1 SS, I allow 02 sec. of Black Video at the beginning, to allow set-top players time to "lock onto" the DD 5.1 SS Audio Track. Many high-end units require this extra time at the beginning, too.
Good luck to the OP,
Hunt

Why did you do that? Certainly not standard procedure. Fortunately, there is a fix: Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6

FLV files exported with Alpha have extra frames after end of sequence.

Sequence is 588w x 486h Animation+ codec, talent chroma-key (Conduit) on track 2 with no background on track 1. Flash 8 is installed. When I export using the QuickTime Flash export component using On2 VP6 with Alpha Channel settings, the resulting FLV has additional frames up to around 20 seconds for a 2 minute sequence. These additional frames are a freeze of the last frame in the sequence. I tried several different sequence codecs/Spark codec with same result. Even setting an In and Out on the sequence does not help.
One symptom I have noticed, is that when I click in the timeline beyond the last frame of video, I still see the last frame of video in the Canvas (But not in the BlackMagic video card output). Normally I would see black or checkerboard.
Anybody heard of any conflicts with the Flash Export component dircect from the timeline or via a batch export.
Exporting an Item Settings QuickTime (Animation+) files and then using Flash Encoder does work, but I am trying to avoid the extra steps. (250 sequences to export)
I suspect I have an issue with the export component, but I wanted to see if anybody else has experiences this before I reinstall FCP and Flash software.

I have found what I believe the cause of the extra frames issue here, so I thought I would post it for others.
This appears to be caused by a problem between the Adobe FLV Export Component and QuickTime 7.2.  Adobe's website says that Flash encoder has issues with non 44.1 kHz audio.  Changing the sequence settings to 44.1 and rendering the audio solves the problem and FLV files exported from the timeline or via batch export are the correct length.
Exporting FLV files using either Spark or On2 VP6 with alpha, used to be a breeze with awesome results.  I do this all day to support our Flash developers.  The audio issue is easy to work around, but I also get random errors in the alpha channel of these movies now.  These single frame errors appear as black flashes.  There is nothing in the timeline that would appear to cause this.  Re-exporting sometimes fixes it, or simply moves the error somewhere else in the timeline.    This may also be related to QuickTime 7.2, but I don't know.
If anyone has experience these flashes in the alpha channel of exported FLV files please let me know how you resolved it.  This is a major productivity killer.
Thanks....

Pesty extra frames

Anyone know how to paste frames into the timeline without Flash adding extra frames at the end?
THanks.

you can add as many frames as you want by inserting (once) at that number of frames beyond the last frame.
but if you want to copy and paste frames and you do that in the middle of a timeline, you will add extra frames unless you highlight the number of frames you are going to paste.
