HELP - PULL-DOWN ISSUE WORKING WITH ARCHIVAL FILM IN 24P

Bear with me here... I'm working on a historical doc for a local PBS station. Camera footage was originated using the HDX 200 in 720p-24n. Much of the program uses old 16mm film that's been xfer'd to an uncompressed video file using the 16mm "Sniper" (a psuedo-telecine transfer system. The system scans the film frames into a pc one at a time and stores the images as a single movie file using a proprietary codec). You can tell the Sniper's software what frame rate the original film footage was shot at - i.e. 18fps, 24fps and so-on. However, when you export it back out it only outputs to a 29.97 interlaced file.
Here's the problem: The film I'm working with was originated at 18fps - not 24. But, I'm working with a 24p sequence. I need to convert the footage so that it plays cleanly in a 24p environment. But I can't run it through CT and do a reverse telecine to remove the pull-down because that's designed for footage that was originated at 24fps only. When I try to do it on footage that was shot at 18fps, I end up with a wierd flashing/banding thing as it tries to apply a 24 frame pull-down to an 18 frame image.
I'm thinking that there has to be a plug-in either for FCP, CT or for the Sniper that can work a pull-down from 18fps film to 24p video.
Anyone have any ideas?

Yeah, I thoought of that. But I kinda wanted to keep the program in native 24p if I could.
If I did it that way, wouldn't I have to go ahead and edit the program in 24p, then export it out at 29.97, then re-import it into a 29.97 Sequence and finally add the archive material?

Any thougths would be appreciated.

And you have a workstation? not a notebook.
Usually a driver or hardware, nothing that Disk utility will fix.

Is your problem with Safari on the iPad, or some MacBook Air?
Are you sure that the ASUS firmware is tested with the device having trouble and its operating system?

How do I remove Pull Down? Editing from 35mm film.

I am editing a film, shot on 35mm film, and doing some compositing so my VFX guy asked me to remove the pull down. I tried reverse telecine in Cinema Tools and in FCP 5. Nothing seems to work. I am not sure what settings I should use in Cinema Tools to remove it (Fields, type, etc). Help please.

You'll need to see what type of pulldown they added...
Step thru frame by frame... if you see three progressives and two interlaced frames for every 5 frames then it is 3:2 pulldown... if you see 4 progressives and 1 interlaced for every 5 frames then you've got 2.3.3.2 or advanced pulldown cadence.
My bet is that you've got 3.2 pulldown cadence and you should be able to remove that in Cinema tools.
Not at Cinema Tools right now, but check to see if you can't find remove 3.2 pulldown or reverse telecine. That should do it.
Good luck,

Issue working with states (FW CS5)

Hi all,
Here's my thing: when I save a file and open it up again some time later, all the pages will be set in in the first state (which is shown at the top of the states panel). That's very inconvenient for me. I'd like the page to stay in the state in which I put it. Is there a solution or a workaround?
Another thing what's happening when I open up a saved document, is that some objects don't show themselves when I activate a different state of the page where the object is placed upon. It's showing up only after double clicking the object (and open up the object view, the page is grayed out) and the return to the page view. Pretty unhandy.
Also when saving: FW will always show the first page in the document, not the last page I've worked on. I'd like it to see that specific page.
Any help would be appreciated very much.

Hi Linda,
thanks for your reply, but it doesn't solve my problem. I'm not putting pages on states. I do add states to pages. My main issue now is this:
What's happening when I open up a saved document, is that some objects don't show themselves when I activate a different state of the page where the object is placed upon. It's showing up only after double clicking the object (and open up the object view, the page is grayed out) and the return to the page view.
It's very important for me to resolve this, since other people working with my file otherwise only see white space instead of objects.
Thanks for your help.

Help! iSight Not Working with iMovie!

I can't seem to use my iSight camera with iMovie. ?? The camera works with PhotoBooth, but with iMovie not even the "Record with iSight" button appears. I'm using iMovie 5 on an IMac G5 with a built-in iSight camera. Any suggestions on getting iSight to record to iMovie??

You're welcome, -John
If you are following the directions in this Apple article
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.4/en/mh2329.html,
your iSight should be working.
If you have added any hardware or software since iMovie worked correctly for you, first rule out any Possible conflicts with your iSight.
If your problem is ONLY with iMovie, try this:
• Quit iMovie if it is open.
• Delete your iMovie preferences file:
Finder > Go > Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.iMovie.plist
• If they exist, also delete any other "com.apple.iMovie" files that end in ".plist" in this folder, or example, "com.apple.iMovie2.plist" and / or "com.apple.iMovie3.plist".
• Close those folders and launch iMovie again to check for proper functioning.
• When you get iMovie working again after tossing your old .plist files, you will need to reset all preferences that you want to be different from the default values.
If you cannot make your iSight does not work in any app or in any User Account, you will need the help of an Apple Service Provider Technician to repair your iSight.
If only iMovie gives you trouble, even after dumping the iMovie preferences, I suggest you reinstall the iMovie application.

Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra: Need help getting it to work with Vis

Does anyone know if the Zen Xtra will work with Windows Vista 32-bit's? I have tried installing the software that came with my MP3 player on my laptop that runs with Vista and it just doesn't work. Are there new drivers that I need? Please help!

i just found another, easier way to make you zen xtra work with windows vista
go to the support page and download the oldest driver, i think it's version .30 or somehting like that
install that- it should prompt you to overwrite a newer version of the driver, if it does, say ok
vista might then ask you if it installed correctly, say no, and run the installation in compatibility mode
then download the oldest version of nomad explorer, and install that
instead of using the preset instalation directory, select browse
i'm not sure if this has any effect, but i think some of the folders are renamed for vista
when the installation is finished, select "restart my computer now"
if you wait, it may not work properly
this should get nomad explorer running properly with vista
if you don't like this program and prefer creative media source organizer, you can now transfer your music to your harddri've and update your firmwar, without having to worry about external storage, a dual boot system, or any of those messy options

HELP...Distiller works with all apps including office2007 with the exeption of publisher 2007

I have adobe 4.0
It worked with all apps before the office upgrade.
Now it works with everything except publisher 2007.
I don't get any error. The entire print box is grayed out.

Not sure. How are you trying to print? You may have to remind us what some of the options are. I have 4 versions of Acrobat installed on different machines, but not back to AA4. I might actually have access to that on another machine if needed, but don't have Office2007 on that machine. The combination is a bit strange and we might have to guess.
When you say it works, I am assuming you have the Acrobat Distiller printer (or what ever the printer was) listed and you print to that. If not, please explain exactly what you are doing. There are too many options, particularly back when a lot of folks use PDF Writer rather than the Acrobat Distiller printer that is preferred.

Help Ipod won't work with my computer anymore!

I have a 5th gen Ipod and it has been working fine for the first month I've had it but recently I can't seem to get it to work with Itunes or even be detected on my computer. I've already tried all the things it says to do on the support page and none of it seems to be working. I've reinstalled everything and tried the Ipod updater but it won't work. Has anyone else had this problem and if so what should I do? Is there any way I can just get a new Ipod since I've only had this one for a month?

Problems with G5-Need Help Narrowing Down Issue

I have I PowerMac G5 dual 2.0 GHz from the June 2004 bracket and am having issues getting it to turn on. When I press the power button I will get one of three results. One: the light will come on when pressed, the fans will rev and I can hear the hear drive start to work, but the power light will go back out after a second or two while the fans still spin. Second: the power button is depressed and no light comes on but the fans, hard drive start up, etc. Third but least common is that the power button is depressed and it will come on as normal, boot up just fine and I'm able to use the computer-going as far as running apps and games with no problem. I've taken the steps mentioned in other threads such as resetting the PSU, swapping batteries, reseating video card/RAM but the results with start up are varied so much as to I can't tell what (if anything) is helping. I don't know if it's power supply issue (because the fans and other things seem to work fine) or a motherboard issue (but that wouldn't explain why it works fine when it wants to). I'm stuck. Any help is greatl appreciated.

Hi fiveinchwrench-
Usually this problem is either a power supply or mother board. It sounds more like a power supply to me but there is no way to tell from here.
It may be worth taking it to an Authorized Apple Repair Center for a diagnosis. Both a power supply and a mother board will probably be in short supply, but the power supply will by far be the cheaper component.

In the "Help" pull-down, is there a way to disable (gray out) the "Restart with Add-ons Disabled" so that a security extension can not be bypassed?

The extension that I am using is "Public Fox" 1.09.

Note that you would only have to hold down the Shift key while starting Firefox to start in Safe Mode.
Any restriction added via an extension can easily be bypassed by knowledgeable users.

Issues working with Attachments in Outlook 2010

I have 2, possibly related, problems with Outlook 2010 and email attachments.
1/ When opening a mail with attachments I cannot drag multiple attachments out to save in a folder at once. the first attachment selected will be saved, but not subsequent ones. Nor can I do a multiple-select and Save As via the right-click menu.
The only way around this I have found is to drag or save each document individually
2/ When opening Excel sheets (Excel 2010) directly from email, the first sheet will open normally. But if I try to open a second sheet, whether from the same email or a different one, the second sheet doesn't open.
The only work-around i have found is to close the first sheet I opened and/or to save the second sheet to disk and then open it explicitly in a new copy of Excel
Can you give me any help in resolving these annoying behaviours?
Many thanks
Tim
TimWB

Hi Tim,
R1. If we open the email with attachments, on the Message tab, in the
Actions group, click Other Actions, and then select
Save All Attachments, will all the attachment been saved?
R2. Did you get any error message when the second sheet failed to open? Please open one Excel file, click File > Options > Advanced and then scroll down to
General section. Clear the option “Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)” and then check the issue again.
In addition, we can try to run Outlook in safe mode to check the result. Press Windows key + R, type
outlook.exe /safe in the Run dialog and press Enter.
Also try to clear Outlook Secure Temp folder to check the result. See:
http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm
Please let me know the result.

Steve Fan
