How do I make a FFT filter fade over time?

I am trying to apply a FFT filter (underwater shallow) to an audio track, but I want it to gradually fade until we here the original non-filtered audio at the end. I've created a multitrack session, but Show Envelopes does not unclude the FFT filter. Surely there is a way to accomplish this? Please help!

If you add the FFT filter to the Effects Rack for your audio track you can then select Rack Mix in the Automation track and use it to fade between the "wet" treated version and the "dry" untreated version.

How do you make a title just fade away

I would like to put a still frame title into a clip, and instead of having it just be on the screen one second and a few seconds later instantly be gone, I would like to make the title slowly disapear into nothingness? Anyone know how to do that?

Yes, I'm very sorry. I keep forgetting that Encore and PPCS4 are separate programs. Yes, you do indeed create fading titles in PPCS4. I finally figured it out today. All that is necessary is to Put the new title on the timeline. Then place the timeline indicator bar, or whatever that thing is called, at the front of the title box on your timeline. Open up the effects control box, and expand the opacity box. Click the little diamond on the right side, and this will add a keyframe to the beginning of your title. Go to the end of the title box and click the diamond again to add a key frame to that end. Then just grab the keyframe on the right and pull it down. The title will disappear over the length of the time that it is on your screen.
Thank you Hunt. Also thank you for the advice about the book. I do appreciate it.

Terry,
I could be wrong, but isn't this something that one would do in PrPro?
Now, if one wanted a Menu (in Encore) to "fade away," they could create (in PrPro) a Button Transition to do that.
Good luck,

How can I make multiple pictures slowly fade to white in FCP X ?

I am new to FCP X and I'm creating a picture slideshow. How can I make multiple pictures slowly fade to white in FCP X ?
For example, I would like to have 10 pictures all play in 5 seconds, and starting off with the 1st one being little light; 2nd lighter; 3rd lightter; etc., to 10th being completly white screen...
Can anyone help ?

Here is what I would do. Add a 5 second white generator solid to your storyline. Add your 10 half second clips as attached clips. Select them all, right click and make a compound clip. Then keyframe the compound clips opacity from 100% t0 0% with one keyframe at the beginning and one at the end. That will give you a linear reduction in opacity over the 5 seconds(10 pics). You can play with the keyframes to get the effect you want if linear isn't doing it.

How can I make sure the engineer comes this time?

Hi there I noticed at the beginning of last week that my broadband had slowed to a crawl. I checked the phone and could not get a dial tone. Ringing our number made the phone ring but no conversation was possible. Broadband was synced at 640 Kbps I got the automated line checker which found a fault near my property - the telegraph pole in the graphic. I fault was logged on May 1st and I got a repair date for next Wednesday 9th which I wouldn't be able to make so I went to rearrange and was able to pick last Saturday morning 5th May. About 2 hours after i rearranged it I had a call from Mumbai, he said someone was going to be coming on the original date of Wednesday, I assumed that as I had just rearranged this would not now be happening, but couldnt get him to understand that the new dte of saturday 5th wasshoes ing on my fault update page. Sure enough nobody came on the Saturday . I have now rearranged it for the afternoon of Friday 11th May My question is how do I find out if an engineer is still going to come on Wednesday afternoon (I can try to take the afternoon off from work) or has that now been properly rearranged for Friday, given that last time it was irrelevant that Saturday was showing on my fault update page for the engineers visit? Is there any way I can confirm this is logged properly on the BT systems? Sorry about the long paragraphs posting from an iPad doesn't result in correct formatting!

Haha, the engineer turned up today, on the wednesday, which was the original date allocated!
Despite me rearranging for last saturday morning, (showing up on my "track my fault") then, following a non show, rearranging for next friday afternoon, (showing up on my "track my fault") the OR enginner phones me (on my mobile obviously) to tell me he is her at 12.20 on the wednesday.
Luckily I was at work and could get home in 20 mins, and the chap (really nice) said he would make a start. By the time I got home he told me he had fixed it - the connection was ?corroded (6 yr old house) on the BT side of the fence.
There is a total disconnect between the "track my fault" page with BT and Openreach
If my mobile had not been in signal range and I had not been able to get home to meet this really nice OR enginner, and had they not turned up on Friday with an afternoon lost from work I would not have been happy!
I have an installation date for BT Infinity in 2w time, on price alone, but hope i don't live to regret this
I would appreciate a reply as to why "rearrange my appointment" has no effect

How can i possibly make this game to be over in 3 minutes?
It says "game over" when you hit 20 cars.
I want to make it say "you've made it!" or something when they survive for 3 minutes with less than 20 crashes.

How can I make a photoshop filter tile or wrap-around edges?

Hi,
I have a procedurally generated image (a bird's eye terrain map). The edges wrap-around (I can tile the image without seams) I applied the Sponge artistic filter on it, but the edges don't match anymore.
Is there any way to get a Photoshop filter to recognize the opposite edge's pixels so that it maintains my tile effect? Thanks.

I don't know of a way to make the filter you ran on it recognize that you wanted to maintain the tiling ablility on the edges.
If you aren't concerned with it looking exactly the same you could always run the process of Filter/other/overpass using 50% pixels both ways and "wrap" and get a new tile. It will move things around though, yet it only takes a minute or two and looks similar.
I suppose that is maybe how you made the tile in the first place, in which case this wouldn't help to keep the image as you had it and just correct the edges.

How do I make a fixed edge feather over an object in motion?

This is probably something really simple to do, but I'm struggling trying to find instructions anywhere on how to do this.
Anyways, I have an image that I added motion to so it moves across the screen. I want an edge feather on both sides of the screen though so it fades in instead of just appearing from the edge of the video. When I try to apple an edge feather filter, it feathers the edges of the image and moves with it. Is there a way I can do this? Maybe a mask of some sort? I tried using a slug and positioning it and feathering it as I want, but a slug is a solid color and then it blocks out the video behind it.
Thanks!

Assuming your keyframed shot isn't scaled down, move it up to V3 and on V2 insert a Square
shape from the generators tab. Scale and add softness according to the amount of 'Fade' you require
and select composite mode 'Travel Matte-Luma' to V3. You should see V3 fade in but retain it's hard edge.

How can I change a Mixer filter in real-time? (11.5)

Hi all,
I'm currently coding (or trying to code) an interactive soundboard that users can play with in their software. They can turn inputs on and off, increase the volume, change the EQ, etc. The nice is, and I was really pleased to discover this, Director already has a feature called an 'Audio Mixer' that has filters to satisfy all these functionalities! The bad thing, I can't figure out how to change these filters in real time.
For example, here's the code to MUTE a specific mixer (activated when the user toggles a button):
member("channelOneMix").mute()
But how do I tell it go INTO that mixer, find the existing High Pass Filter, and change the value of that High Pass Filter's 'highCutOffFreq' property? It's a classic case of knowing exactly what I need to tell the code to do, but I have no idea of the SYNTAX of actually telling it to do that.
I hate to be 'that guy', but it is somewhat urgent. This is for a college assignment due Wednesday (yikes!). I didn't quite know what I was getting myself into with this code, but the end is in sight if I can figure out how to write this particular code.
Many gratuitous thanks in advance for any assistance!
PS: It won't be enough to simply add a new filter to the list. The user needs to be able to turn a dial up or down to increase or decrease the High Pass Filter, in conjunction with several other dials manipulating other filters. I need to be able to actually change what the filter's value is.

Thanks for your help!
The problem is that I think that I changed the "default" name for the state where the photos were taken. I have 50 differents locations, that are all correct, and photo per photo, I can modify the original location, but only at "local" level.
How can I change the name displayed in State section as "Casa David i Mireia" for "Catalunya" that is the real name for the State where the photos where taken?
I don't if this post is comprehensive. I'm not sure.
Thanks for your time!

How do I make sure files backed up by Time Machine don't get deleted?

About 2 months ago I backed up about 50GBs worth of family movie files with TM to a 1TB WD hard drive so that I could access them to watch without them clogging up my iMac hard drive. Once they were safely backed up I removed them from my computer after about 3 days. (I also backed them up to DVDs so luckily they are not gone for good). After 2 months I decided to access them to watch through TM only to find they were no longer there. I also went looking directly into the sparsebundle...no luck. I still have about 450GB left for back ups. My questions are this... is TM deleting files that have only been on my computer short term? If so, how long do I need to keep files on my computer to ensure that TM keeps them for good? I believe TM deletes a lot of weekly and monthly back ups after a month, but this seems to put a lot of 'short term stay' files in danger of being lost completely. Am I right in assuming this?

Hi Peter and a warm welcome to Discussions!

TM is designed to delete files. Seems conterproductive for a backup application but then again TM is not designed to be an ordinary backup solution that you can rely upon it to keep your files until you as the user decides to delete backups because you find that they are unnecessary. Incidentally, note that the TM preferences tick box says "Warn when old backups are deleted" not "are about to be deleted". There may be warnings before deletion but in my experience one can't count on that.
I can't say why those files are no longer on your backup. Download the Time Machine widget and have a look if there's anything in the TM log for the relevant time the files disappeared. TM shouldn't delete when there's a lot of space left on the drive. However, unfortunately it does happen that TM loses track of what has been backed up and so begins a full backup to ensure all's backed up. In such a case and where the full backup is big, it may have deleted the oldest files to make space for the new backup. Ironic.
If so, how long do I need to keep files on my computer to ensure that TM keeps them for good? I believe TM deletes a lot of weekly and monthly back ups after a month, but this seems to put a lot of 'short term stay' files in danger of being lost completely. Am I right in assuming this?
You can't (afaik) ensure that TM will forever keep files that it has copied because of how TM is designed. If you want a proper/ordinary backup solution look elsewhere. Because of TM's design, I actually stopped using it and instead set up SuperDuper to run a daily backup of the drive where I save all my stuff. Sure, I won't have the extra security that TM offers by backing up every hour (thus minimising the amount of data that may be lost while working on a file) but I don't need that because I am very careful to save regularly.

How do I make firefox restore previous session every time it crashes?

I really like the "restore previous session" window that shows up sometimes when firefox crashes, being able to pick and choose which tabs and windows to reopen. My question is are there any add-ons or ways of making it so this happens every time I have to reopen firefox? Right now it only does it occasionally, other times it automatically reopens every tab loading them as I go which makes the process of finding which windows I want and getting back up to speed much lengthier. This is quite an annoyance because you'd think after force quiting firefox would default to this every time, but usually it reopens every tab and I have to try and purposely crash the browser hoping I'll get the "restore previous session" window. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, you can. Firefox will try to automatically restore once. If that fails, then it gives you the screen to choose. To prevent automatic restoration and always go straight to that windows/tabs list, change a setting here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the search box in that tab, type or paste '''sessions''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Double-click '''browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes''' and change the 1 to a 0 (a zero) and OK that.
(4) You can close this tab now.
Hopefully you won't need to test it any time soon -- if you are crashing a lot, we should try to figure out how to stop that.

How can I make an image (gif) go over the screen with javascript?

Hello,
I'm working on a website for an archery club. Everything works great but I want an arrow going from one side to the other on a certain moment.
I cannot find a script that works like I want. The image should start out of the screen and has to leave on the other side with a certain speed.
I'm not able to write such a script myself. I'm not certain how or when it should start but I can fix that in the script I guess.
Thanks for any help,
Regards,
Theo

How do I make applications launch at a given time?

I would like to launch Transmission each night so that it can do it's stuff Whilst I sleep. Does anyone know how I could do this?

I use Unix's cron utility via a simple GUI front end "Cronnix". Basically you tell it (1) what time and how often, (2) the path to the application (or whatever) you want to run at those times.
I would be interested to hear a solution using Automator, if anyone has one.

Every page I open is tiny, every time I open it, How can I make tham ALL bigger all the time

I installed FF4, and now the all the web pages I visit must be zoomed in, each and every time I visit them.
I reinstalled FF3.16, and now I've got the same problem with it. Man this really sucks, as before I could actually use this browser fairly easily.

The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

How do I make an inserted date and/or time automatically update in Pages 5.1?

In the previous version, there was an option to automatically update date / time when you clicked on the inserted text. This option is no longer there for me, only the ability to change to format of the insertion or to change the date manually. Is there no longer a way to do this?

Apple has removed over 90+ features in Pages 5
Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
Trash/archive Pages 5 after Exporting your files to Pages '09 format.
Then rate/review Pages 5 in the App Store and wait for Apple to get it out of beta.
