Help with partial image loss from Viewer to Canvas

Hi--I'm brand new to FCP and would really appreciate any help with my problem. I'm creating 2 second video clips composed of four still images (15 frames...or 500ms each) laid back to back, then rendered. Very simple, I know. The individual images are tiff files that look great in the FCP Viewer. But in the Canvas, part of the image is missing. Specifically, in the center of each image there should be a + sign, about 1cm square. This + should remain constant thoughout the short movie, while the items around it vary (from image to image). (This is a psychology experiment, and the center + is a fixation cross.) The problem is that in the Viewer the + sign is intact, but in the Canvas (and the resulting rendered video), only the vertical bar of the + is present! This is true for every individual tiff, and for the resulting movie. The items around the fixation cross are fine. My question is WHY on earth does the central horizontal bar get "lost" between the Viewer and the Canvas? I've read the manuals, but obviously I've got something set wrong. Also, there is a considerable overall reduction in quality between the viewer and canvas, even though I'm trying my best to maximize video quality. Everything looks a bit blurry. Truly, all ideas are welcome. Sorry if it's obvious. Thanks.

steve, i'm viewing on my 23" cinema screen. i read up on quality and know that this is a no-no; that i should only judge quality when viewing on an ntsc monitor or good tv. the problem is that i'll ultimately be displaying these videos on my Dell LCD, so i've got to maximize what i've got. thanks to the discussion boards i have a short list of things to try now. thanks!

Help with displaying image received from socket on Canvas

Dear programmers
I know that I'm pestering you lot for a lot of help but I just got one tiny problem which I just can't get over.
I'm developing a remote desktop application which uses an applet as it's client and I need help in displaying the image.
When a connection is made to the server, it continuously takes screenshots, converts them to jpg and then send them to the client applet via socket communication. I've got the the server doing this in a for(;;) loop and I've tested the communication and all seems to be working fine. However the applet is causing some issues such as displaying "loading applet" until I stop the server and then the 1st screenshot is displayed. Is there a way to modify the following code so that it displays the current image onto a canvas while the next image is being downloaded and then replace the original image with the one which has just been downloaded. All this needs to be done with as little flicker as possible.
for(;;)
    filename = dis.readUTF();
    fileSize = dis.readInt();
    fileInBuffer = new byte[fileSize];
    dis.readFully(fileInBuffer, 0, fileSize-1);
    //Create an image from the byte array
    img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(fileInBuffer);
    //Create a MyCanvas object and add the canvas to the applet
    canvas = new IRDPCanvas(img, this);
    canvas.addMouseListener(this);
    canvas.addKeyListener(this);
    add(canvas);
}

Need some help with downloading PDF's from the net.

need some help with downloading PDF's from the net. Each time I try to click on a link from a website, if it takes me to a new screen to view a pdf, it just comes up as a blank black screen? any suggestions?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Need help with getting images to look smooth (without the bitmap squares) around the edges. When I transfer the image from pictures, it sets itself into the InDesign layout, but with square edges. I need to find out how to get it to look smooth?

Need to find out how to get my images transferred into an InDesign layout without the rough edges, as with a bit map image, but to appear with smooth edges in the layout. I can notice it more when I enlarge the file (pic). How can I get it to appear smooth in the finished layout. Another thing too that I noticed; it seems to have effected the other photos in the layout. They seem to be
pixelated too after I import the illustration (hand drawn artwork...)? Any assistance with this issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

No Clipboard, no copy & paste, as you would not get the full information of the image.
When you paste you can't get the image info from the Links panel, but you can get resolution and color info either via the Preflight panel or by exporting to PDF and checking the image in Acrobat.
Here I've pasted a 300ppi image, scaled it, and made a Preflight rule that catches any image under 1200ppi. The panel gives me the effective resolution of the pasted image as 556ppi. There are other workflow reasons not to paste—you loose the ability to easily edit the original and large file sizes—but pasting wouldn't cause a loss in effective resolution or change in color mode.

Server goes out of memory when annotating TIFF File. Help with Tiled Images

I am new to JAI and have a problem with the system going out of memory
Objective:
1)Load up a TIFF file (each approx 5- 8 MB when compressed with CCITT.6 compression)
2)Annotate image (consider it as a simple drawString with the Graphics2D object of the RenderedImage)
3)Send it to the servlet outputStream
Problem:
Server goes out of memory when 5 threads try to access it concurrently
Runtime conditions:
VM param set to -Xmx1024m
Observation
Writing the files takes a lot of time when compared to reading the files
Some more information
1)I need to do the annotating at a pre-defined specific positions on the images(ex: in the first quadrant, or may be in the second quadrant).
2)I know that using the TiledImage class its possible to load up a portion of the image and process it.
Things I need help with:
I do not know how to send the whole file back to servlet output stream after annotating a tile of the image.
If write the tiled image back to a file, or to the outputstream, it gives me only the portion of the tile I read in and watermarked, not the whole image file
I have attached the code I use when I load up the whole image
Could somebody please help with the TiledImage solution?
Thx

U are right, SGA is too large for my server.
I guess oracle set SGA automaticlly while i choose default installion , but ,why SGA would be so big? Is oracle not smart enough ?Default database configuration is going to reserve 40% of physical memory for SGA for an instance, which you as a user can always change. I don't see anything wrong with that to say Oracle is not smart.
If i don't disincrease SGA, but increase max-shm-memory, would it work?This needs support from the CPU architecture (32 bit or 64 bit) and the kernel as well. Read more about the huge pages.

Need help with my image filter

hi guys,
so i'm making this image filter for school in Labview but can't get it to work properly, to do the filtering i'm using a formula node, which in my eyes is easier then with only labview functions.
for the C code i'm following this website: http://lodev.org/cgtutor/filtering.html
i don't copy exact every line, i'm only copying the lines i need. note that i don't use the "ColorRGB" class because it doesn't exist in a formula node, i do the filtering on a black and white image so don't really need it.
I adjusted to code so that it would work in my formula node.
if i run the vi and select the attached image file (can't attach .bmp files so i included a link for the img file) for input then it just returns the original image, which is good and also bad, good because the code works in some way but bad because it doesn't do any filtering or such.
Could anyone please look into this and give me some tips or tell me what i'm doing wrong?
and if anyone knows how to do this in RGB you are always welcome to give me tips.
used image file: http://www13.zippyshare.com/v/74810991/file.html (can't attach bmp files so i uploaded it quickly)
(btw i know there is this toolkit called vision which has many functions that could help me, but the teacher already said we can't use that)
i hope somebody can assist me in this and willing to give me some help.

Yes there are two bugs, I found the other one first but figured if you fixed the result the other would be obvious. This is homework so only a hint:
look at what happens (and does not happen) to pixel.
the first bug was that i had to use the 'result[][]' array instead of the 'image[][]' array in my last loop, right?
the 2nd bug I really can't find :s been lookin at it for almost an hour now and trying new stuff but nothing works,
first i thought i had to put this line " result[x][y] = min(max(int((factor2 * pixel) + bias2), 0), 255);" inside the for loop above but that didn't fix my problem,
maybe the problem is in my 'imageX' and 'imageY' variable, i don't know? any more tips?
I'm sorry for being such a newb but programming isn't my strongest quality.

Just one more advice:
Look at the format of the "image" array. The way how to use the values from this array depends on the "image depth" parameter.
In your case, because the image is 8bit, you need to use the "colors" array containing the real RGB value.
Look at the Help for the "Read BMP File VI", you should be able to properly handle your pixels from there.
thanks for pointing that out for me, so I connect the 'totalpix' array with the 'colors' array from the image data instead of the 'image' array, that's correct right?

HT203175 I cannot remove iTunes Helper .exe- Bad Image warning from my PC when it opens. Can someone help a luddite?

I receive an error message each time I start my PC. I get the I Tunes Helper.exe- Bad Image message and need to click 5 times before it goes away. I was trying to sync my I Phone with OUtlook and something happened. I am not tech-savvy.

Many thanks.
Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Mobile Device Support file there.
Let's try something relatively simple first.
Restart the PC. After you've fought your way through the error messages, go into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Mobile Device Support", and click "Repair".
Does the repair install seem to go through okay? If so, restart the PC again. Have the error messages from iTunesHelper.exe stopped?

Help with displaying image using OpenGL ES sample code - image size prb

I am using some sample code that currently displays an image 256x256 pixels. The code states the image size must be a power of 2. I have tried an image 289x289 (17^2) and it displays a square the same size as the 256x256 with a white background. I want an image 320x320 displayed. Should be obvious for people familiar with OpenGL. Here is the code which displays the image and rotates:
- (void)setupView
// Sets up an array of values to use as the sprite vertices.
const GLfloat spriteVertices[] = {
-0.5f, -0.5f,

// Clears the view with black
//glClearColor(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f);
glClearColor(255, 255, 255, 1.0f);
// Sets up pointers and enables states needed for using vertex arrays and textures
glVertexPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0, spriteVertices);
glEnableClientState(GLVERTEXARRAY);
glTexCoordPointer(2, GL_SHORT, 0, spriteTexcoords);
glEnableClientState(GLTEXTURE_COORDARRAY);
// Creates a Core Graphics image from an image file
spriteImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"bottle.png"].CGImage;
// Get the width and height of the image
width = CGImageGetWidth(spriteImage);
height = CGImageGetHeight(spriteImage);
// Texture dimensions must be a power of 2. If you write an application that allows users to supply an image,
// you'll want to add code that checks the dimensions and takes appropriate action if they are not a power of 2.
if(spriteImage) {
// Allocated memory needed for the bitmap context
spriteData = (GLubyte *) malloc(width * height * 4);
// Uses the bitmatp creation function provided by the Core Graphics framework.
spriteContext = CGBitmapContextCreate(spriteData, width, height, 8, width * 4, CGImageGetColorSpace(spriteImage), kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast);
// After you create the context, you can draw the sprite image to the context.
CGContextDrawImage(spriteContext, CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, (CGFloat)width, (CGFloat)height), spriteImage);
// You don't need the context at this point, so you need to release it to avoid memory leaks.
CGContextRelease(spriteContext);
// Use OpenGL ES to generate a name for the texture.
glGenTextures(1, &spriteTexture);
// Bind the texture name.
glBindTexture(GLTEXTURE2D, spriteTexture);

+I am using some sample code that currently displays an image 256x256 pixels. The code states the image size must be a power of 2. I have tried an image 289x289 (17^2)+
The phrase "a power of 2" refers to 2^x so your choices above 256 are 512, 1024 etc.
The texture size has nothing to do with the displayed size - OGL will stretch or shrink your texture to fit the size of the polygon you're displaying it on. I recommend you scale your image to 256x256 and work on make the polygon the size you want and work on your image quality from there.
You can work on the size or orientation of the poly surface to make it larger but OGL doesn't support setting a model to a screen image size or anything like that. That sounds more like a Quartz or CoreGraphics kind of thing if you want to set an exact screen size to the pixel.

Help with restoring Address Book from Time Machine

Problem: I really, really need to retrieve someone's number. I know it'll be in an old version of my Address Book. I can see when I open time Machine that my address book is backed up, but no matter the date I go to, it says the Address Book was last modified in 2012! I know for a fact I've updated (and backed up) the Address Book many times since then.
Whenever I try to restore the Address Book, I do Time Machine > Applications > Address Book > 'restore'. But whenever I do this, the mac refuses to open the restored Address Book because it's 'required by mac OS X'.
I don't understand.
Please, how on earth do I dredge my Address Book from the depths of Time Machine?
Please help!
M

Hello mb9236,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with restoring a contact from Time Machine.
It sounds like you are trying to restore the Address Book application. The Address Book application is just the application and does not include the content in Address Book.
Instead, you will want to open Address Book and then launch Time Machine and restore your contacts from there. Use the steps below to restore your contacts form a previous date (in step one instead of opening Mail or Finder, be sure you have Address Book open and in focus):
If you use Time Machine to back up your computer, you can easily bring back one or more items you’ve lost, or recover older versions of files you’ve changed.
Open a window for the item you want to restore. For example, if you accidentally deleted a file from your Documents folder, open the Documents folder. If you want to recover an email message, open your inbox in Mail.
If you’re missing an item from the desktop, you don’t need to open a window.
Click the Time Machine icon in the Dock, or open the Time Machine menu in the menu bar and choose Enter Time Machine. If you back up to a Time Capsule or other network disk, a message briefly appears while Time Machine connects your computer to the backup disk.
Use the arrows or the timeline along the right side of your screen to browse through all the snapshots and backups Time Machine created. Gray tick marks on the timeline represent snapshots stored on your internal drive (portable computers only). Pink tick marks represent backups stored on your backup disk.
If you need more information about an item, double-click to preview it. The windows in Time Machine behave just like Finder windows, so you can open folders, click items in the sidebar, and use the search field in the upper-right corner of the window.
When you find the item you want to restore, select it, and then click Restore. You can restore individual items, multiple items, folders, or your entire hard disk. The restored item is returned to its original location. For example, if the item was found in the Documents folder, it is returned to the Documents folder. Time Machine may ask if you want to re-create one or more folders in order to return a restored item to its original location.
If an item you restore has the same name as another item on your computer, you’re asked if you want to keep the current item, the restored item, or both.
You can use Time Machine from within many applications. For example, you can open Address Book and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to recover contacts you may have accidentally deleted, or open iPhoto and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to view past versions of your iPhoto albums.

Help with exporting images

HI
I have recently shot a wedding with two bodies. Forgot to sync the bodies before hand and so left with images at massively different times. in lightroom i then changed to view by capture time and amended all the wrongly timed images. i am then left with all images in order and looking as i want. I then put them in a catalogue and a collection to be on the safe side and exported both. Whatever i do i see the exported images in my pictures in the same order they were in before i changed the capture time. i have tried to research this until im sick of it. I just cant figure out what is going wrong. Just tried to save to dvd instead and saved but again in the order pre correction? please help

Hi did that this morning . I'm viewing in the exported named file in a
folder on the mac ... I've tried re naming , sort by capture time but the
minute I export , the exported file looks just the same as before I made
the capute time amendments .
Thanks

Need help with upgrading my OS from 10.5.8

Need help with upgrading my OS. I havent upgraded the OS since I bought it and have version 10.5.8. Now I cant download Mountain Lion- or even Snow Leopard. When i downloaded the first version of SL- 10.6.1 it says i have to have 10.6 first and I cant find that.

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
Whilst Apple withdrew Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $20 for a single user, or $30 for a family pack that covers up to 5 Macs. You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
UPDATE:
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:

Help with adding image onclick

Hey everyone,
I am making a simple game in AS3 and need help with adding an image once they have click on something.
On the left of the screen are sentences and on the right an image of a form. When they click each sentence on the left, writing appears on the form. Its very simple. With this said, what I would like to do is once the user click one of the sentences on the left, I would like a checkmark image to appear over the sentence so they know they have already clicked on it.
How would I go about adding this to my code?
var fields:Array = new Array();
one_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick1a);
one_btn.buttonMode = true;
function onClick1a(event:MouseEvent):void
    fields.push(new one_form());
    fields[fields.length-1].x = 141;
    fields[fields.length-1].y = -85;
    this.addChild(fields[fields.length-1]);
    one_btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick1a);
    one_btn.buttonMode = false;
    //gotoAndStop("one")
two_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick2a);
two_btn.buttonMode = true;
function onClick2a(event:MouseEvent):void
    fields.push(new two_form());
    fields[fields.length-1].x = 343.25;
    fields[fields.length-1].y = -85;
    this.addChild(fields[fields.length-1]);
    two_btn.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, onClick2a);
    two_btn.buttonMode = false;
    //gotoAndStop("two")

I don't know where you're positioning the button that should enable/disable the checkbox but for "one_btn" let's just say it's at position: x=100, y=200. Say you'd want the checkbox to be to the left of it, so the checkbox would be displayed at: x=50, y=200. Also say you have a checkbox graphic in your library, exported for actionscript with the name "CheckBoxGraphic".
Using your code with some sprinkles:
// I'd turn this into a sprite but we'll use the default, MovieClip
var _checkBox:MovieClip = new CheckBoxGraphic();

          this.addChild(fields[fields.length-1]);
          // save this button as last clicked
          _currentButton = one_btn;
     // not sure what this is
    //gotoAndStop("one")
I'd also centralize all the click handlers into a single handler and use the buttons name to branch on what to do, but that's a different discussion. Just see if this makes sense to you.
The jist is a graphic of a checkbox that is a MovieClip symbol in your library exported to actionscript with the class name CheckBoxGraphic() is created and added to the display list.
I made a variable that points itself to the last clicked button, when the "on" state is desired. If I detect the last clicked button was this button, I remove the form I added and the checkbox. If the last clicked button is not this button, I enable and position the checkbox as well as add the form.
What is left to do is handle the sitation where multiple buttons are on the screen. When a new button is pushed it should remove anything the previous button added. This code simply demonstrates clicking the same button multiple times to toggle it "on and off".

Seeking Help with Album Image Issues in iPod Classic

Hi folks -
I have a new 160 iPod Classic and have two album image-related issues I'd appreciate some help with.
In the case of several albums where I'd associated my own art with them in iTunes, the formatting appeared off in my iPod due to the vertical/horizontal proportions. So I corrected the images, replaced the images via iTunes, and re-synced. All of the old images were replaced - except for two. Is there any way to get my iPod to recognize the change to these two images, as it did for all the others?
Secondly, my "The Allman Brothers Band Live at Fillmore East" album was appearing twice in both the Cover Flow and Album list. That was strange, except that after the latest sync it now appears six times! It's only in one place in iTunes, and not erroneously set as a compilation or anything. This is the only album displaying this behavior...
Thanks for any suggestions or advice!
Frank
