Gray background on video "Flickering" behind subject, need to remove

Hello, I exported some video last night in Pro5.5 and came in this morning to find that the gray background behind my subject is "flickering".
I've tried several things but nothing has removed it yet.
Here is the project info:
Shot with a Canon XA10
Editing Mode - AVCHD 1080i anomorphic
29.97 fps
Upper Filed First
Frame blending didn't work, deinterlacing the footage didnt work either.
I don't have maximum bit depth or maximum render quality turned on.
The flicker filter under motion effect didnt work.
Any help please!

What exactly are your Export Settings?
Are you certain you have not reversed the field order?
What is the final destination for your exported file?

Facebook videos flickering.. Need help

Samsung glxy s duos GT7562, Android 4.0.4 ics.
When playing fb videos ,result s screen flickering . Audio s clear..
Help me..plz

Hi renjith113,
Thank you for your question, I understand that there are some issues with video on Facebook pages.
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
The Firefox cache temporarily stores images, scripts, and other parts of websites while you are browsing. 
Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
To clear cache and cookies, do the following:
#Tap the menu icon located at the top right corner. This is the icon with 3 bars. On older Android devices you'll have to press the hardware menu key and then tap More.
#Tap '''Settings'''.
#After that, you will be taken to the settings screen. In the settings screen, look under the section '''''Privacy & Security''''' and select '''Clear private data'''.
#You will then be taken to a list of what can be cleared. Select the following 2 for deletion:
#*Cookies & active logins
#*Cache
#After those have been selected, tap the '''Clear data''' button to actually clear the cache and cookies.
Another issue that might be causing this is the embedded video player, do you have flash installed?
In the meantime, the app may also be an alternative to watching videos.

Why is Safari 5.1.7 for Windows the only browser that displays video with gray background, when it's white in four other browsers?

Hello all,
Here's my coding obstacle to overcome with Safari in my local dev environment using Windows 7 32-bit and wamp server. I created a pretty straightforward one and a half minute animation in Flash with a white background. Then I exported it as both an swf and avi video, then I encoded to several different file formats - ogg, mp4, and webm. Firefox 19, Chrome 24, and Opera 12 all play the webm file correctly showing the video's white background as expected, and IE 10 plays the mp4 correctly.
However, when Safari 5.1.7 plays one of these files that I can't distinguish (because right click functionality displays nothing), the video's background property is changed to (gray) throughout the video instead of white. What the?
Can someone please provide a workaround?

Yes, I am still having the automatic tab reloading and I am ******* sick of it.
I have lost count of how much work I have lost because of it.
I have 8 GB of perfect new RAM and tonnes of SSD HD space, I have tried reinstalling the OS etc and every fix on the internet (no (SP) mode does not work, nor does switching Java off etc, it's not an extension nor corrupted anything ... it's an uncontrollable fault with Safari).
Why does it keep happening !?!
And I am so sick of Apple not acknowledging this and responding to it.
What triggers it ... it is a built memory or cache limitation? It is a plain and simple crash?
How do I debug it to find out?
It strikes me that 20 years after the internet went public Apple ... despite all their billions and open source developers working for free ... still cannot make a browser that does not crash and so they decided to make a browser that *appears* not to crash ... except that it *does* ... only now the facade remains erect but everything else behind it crashes causing all tabs to reload, and videos and music start to play.
And there is no way to stop it doing so.
The most key app of our day and it is a POS.

Video Conversion adds slight gray background

My .mov video has a perfect white background. When I convert
to .flv or .swf, I notice a very slight gray background behind the
primary image. My webpage bacjground is white, and I'd like the
Flash background to be perfectly white. Any ideas?
Thx

Sorry for the triple post. Don't know how it happened.

Gray background behind the main icons at the bottom. Take it away!

Is this about using a lightweight theme (Persona) to style the user interface with a background image?
Are you using an extension that deals with such a theme?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: Firefox > Quit Firefox; Linux: Firefox/File > Quit)

I have a gray background at top of page behind navigation toolbar and other toolbars. It's not part of the theme. How can I change it?

After installing version 4, all web pages have a gray background, with blurry diagonal stripes, at the top, behind all the toolbars. It is not part of the theme and is unaffected by changing themes. It does not extend down to the rest of the page. I don't like the way it looks and would like to change it. I'm not sure if this is a default, or something that I inadvertently did myself. It has been there since I first installed. Any ideas?

You may have installed a persona.
You can uninstall your current Persona and revert to the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Since upgrading to Firefox 4, when I printed anything, I got a gray background covering the page. What I printed could be seen, but it wasted a lot of ink. I had to 'downgrade' to the prior version of Firefox; if it won't be supported soon, what do I do?

I am using Windows XP, SP3. I have experienced this printing problem with anything I print from the internet, any site. I can read whatever I am printing, but there is a light gray background on the whole page. I saw something similar in the problems already listed in the help section, but the fix in the about:config files did not help; same problem existed. The only thing that fixed it was to uninstall Firefox 4, and reinstall the prior version. I am now using version 3.6.17. I have read the warning when I start Firefox to seriously consider upgrading to version 4, and that the older version won't be supported, but since I can't print from it without wasting considerable ink, and having pages that are unattractive and difficult to use, I don't know what to do. Please help. I want to use the new version, but MUST be able to print clean pages, without a gray background on each one.

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Problem with gray background in SmartForms

Hi all
I have uploaded a logo via SE78. The logo have white background both in windows and in the print preview in SAP (SE78). When I insert the logo in my SmartForm the background gets gray, not white. I have tried just to upload a picture that is only white, but I get the same problem here. It is white in the print preview in SAP SE78, but in SmartForms it gets gray background. If I upload it as a black and white picture it gets white background, but I need it to be a colored logo.
Any one got input on this issue?

Hii Johan ,
The problem is the sap conversion,
it converts every image imported into the system to
256 colors, converting white (RGB 255.255.255 to 252.240.240 )
so using Microsoft Photo Editor,
make the white font transparent and
then save it as bmp (discharging the transparent converts it to true white)
define the graphic in color or black/white. You could define also the dpi .
also check it by taking print in other printers ..it could as well be drivers problem .
Reward points if helpful

Need to remove movie from video list

Hi, I imported a movie into my iTUnes 6 video list and I want to remove it. I put it up there as a test and I even deleted the file but the thumbnail is still up there on teh screen with my other videos. THis isnt a major deal but jsut kind of annoying.
I tried right-clicking and going up to the menu but i saw nothing abotu removing. Cut was grayed out so it wasnt an option. Is there a setting i need to change to give me manual control or something?
Thanks.

I'm having the same problem. I had some old Rocketboom.com videos on my hard drive that I didn't know I had. When I updated to iTunes 6.0 it added these videos to my iTunes library. The problem is that the files had a read-only attribute set. Windows/XP OS. Since the files have read-only permission, iTunes won't allow me to delete the files. So I deleted the videos manually from the OS, unfortunately iTunes still won't let me delete the video from iTunes, even though the videos no longer exist. UGH! iTunes does ask me if I want to "browse" and find the file. I tried pointing the library to a file that was deleteable, but iTunes still thinks the file is protected and won't let me delete the file. I'm stumped. I can't think of way to delete all these files from my iTunes video library. We may have to wait for the next update. I hope it's not too long in coming.

Need to remove white background for use on dark background

Hi,
I have a stock image of some people on a white background. I need to remove the white background so I can use the image in a project with a dark background. However when I put the edited subjects on the dark background, the people all have noticeable white borders around them which I assume means I am not getting all of the white out, especially around the hair. Can anyone recommend the best way of overcoming this? Thanks.

Can anyone recommend the best way of overcoming this? Thanks.
There is no single "best way". It all depends on the resolution of the image and its other quality properties. The - theoretically - cleanest and less workladden method would be to extract the luminance e.g. by converting to Lab mode and selecting the L channel, then adjust the channel range. However, if the foreground also contains lots of bright colors, clipping back the channel black and white points would also affect them and you'd need more adjustments to compensate or work with teh refine mask tool a lot to feather edges just like you would with a conventioan layer mask created from an interactive selection. On top of that you may also still need to apply all teh other dirty tricks like using a dark inner glow to cover up remaining bright areas or fill the outside with a dark color... Really depends, but you should be prepared to invest some time. Using longwinded manual painting and cloning may even be required...

ITunes stuck with White on Gray Background

I need help with iTunes please. Since I installed Lion, my iTunes switched to white on gray background, and its so hard seeing my lists on the sidebar. I've tried going under the preferences and choosing "dark" but that doesn't do a thing. Once I click an item it turns black luckily but I've ejected my iPhone accidently while syncing a number of times which the last two times caused it to wipe everything and I had to enter all the info back on from a backup
I updated everything before Lion and iTunes didn't do this; just after Lion.
Any ideas on how to to change it back?
It would be much appreciated!
I've attached a screen shot just in case, for a visual
Thanks!
p.s. I went through the discussions already on here, i saw a similar one but it was a university one and it had to do with iTunes store not a personal iTunes account and it was about 3mos ago and there was no resolution...apologies in advance if I'm not posting in the correct place.

Spoke with apple support as my iMac was still under applecare. The answer is a corrupted file. Solution is:
Delete the Caches folder in the user Library and in the Preferences folder, next
delete the com.apple.itunes.plist file. Restart the computer.
To locate the user Library folder which is now hidden in Lion:
in the Finder hold down the option key while clicking on the Go menu in the finder. Select Library Folder This opens the Library folder. Navigate to the above folder and file.
This worked for me.

Video titling behind moving objects

i recently saw a titling effect in a video, in which a motorcycle drove across the screen and as it passed a title appeared behind it. how does one create video titling behind moving objects? i have no experience in animation, so i'm guessing that the video layer is duplicated and the top layer masked, frame by frame? would an 8-point garbage matte work?

You won't have an easy time doing this in FCP, but Motion, After Effects, or ultimately Shake, can do this a lot easier. You have to rotoscope the motorcycle, accounting for the rims, and space between the engine parts, or anywhere else where you would logically see through to the background, then duplicate that layer on top of the original, with the text in between the two layers. Depending on how long the clip is, you're in for a long haul. But if the footage is anything but DV25, clip analysis and automated keyframing might serve you well as a starting point after the initial mask is made.

Displays diagonal, jagged, white lines on a gray background

The eMac (1.25GHz, 512 MB RAM) does the following. It boots (grey rotating spokes), then displays jagged, diagonal, white lines on a gray background. However, when I boot it into target disk mode, there's no problem w/ the display, and I could booted my Powerbook 12" G4 up using the eMac drive as the boot drive, so it doesn't seem to be a drive issue. Whaddya think, reinstall?
It's running 10.4.11 OBTW.
Cheers,
Rex

Weird; I don't think I've seen anything matching that description yet. No display problems when booting into Firewire Target Disk mode suggests the CRT/analog assembly is mostly fine, but the expected corrupted video drivers would have been corrected with the OS reinstall. If the problem were with part of the ATI video display chipset, it would be a first to me that the native 640x480 resolution is OK but other settings are not. Still, it might be worth trying two things. One, check the PRAM battery; if you have a multimeter, it should read within 0.1v of 3.6v while under load (still in the battery holder). Battery location and replacement details are at eMac - Do-It-Yourself.
Two, try resetting NVRAM. Holding downcommand-option-p-r keys at startup until you hear three sets of chimes, then releasing the keys will reset PRAM settings (per What's stored in PRAM?). Resetting PRAM is supposed to do everything that clearing NVRAM does, but there's a long-standing body of ancedotal evidence that NVRAM is better thought of as a superset of PRAM (although this may not be nerly as true for OS X as it was in OS 9 and earlier). You can fo even firther and reset the Open Firmware settings as well. To reset the Open Firmware settings:
restart holding down the command-option-o-f keys; at the "Welcome to Open Firmware" message (black text on a white screen) type in the following at the command prompt and press return after each (case sensitive, no spaces):
reset-nvram
set-defaults
reset-all
The Mac should restart after reset-all (if it doesn't, type mac-boot and press Return)
Good luck!

Printing with Gray background on entire page every time I print through Elements 12

Every time I print a photo in photoshop, a gray background appears on the entire page of the printed paper (except for 1/4th of an inch margin on all sides.) This does not happen when printing from iPhoto so I assume it is a preference in photoshop or in my driver/printer settings? I am set up for sublimation printing and with an ICC profile from Conde Systems. I work in RGB mode and use the specific color profile downloaded by Conde.
I have a feeling that when I set up my settings, I somewhere marked the "hard settings" or "default" background color to print in WHITE…which is somehow translating to gray when I print (this is just a guess.) I am thinking that a setting of mine is off yet I have no idea where to change it. If I open a new doc, specify that I want the background transparent, it will print without the gray box! However, if I open an image and simply hit "print" - the entire page is gray - which is wasting tons of ink. Creating the new doc and placing the image on that doc and then printing it is a fine temporary solution to the problem but it is not conducive to my business. Anyone with any knowledge on this situation would be a lifesaver. Happy to provide any additional details needed!!!
Please offer any insight you have - this has been driving me crazy for weeks!!
Thanks in advance.

How do i change the gray background to an image of my choice

how do i change the gray background to an image of my choice when exporting an swf in indesign cs6. i want like the wooden destop look behind my flipbook. please help.

appletv play audio out of optical out of hdmi and the old alu one play out the RCA too
the typical the white and red plug ins would be RCA if you have a atv2 (the black one) you cant use
RCA as that is analog and optical and hdmi are digital
you can get converters but some would be pricy and could cause delay between image and pictures for video
