How can I use photos in FCEHD?

How can I use photos in FCEHD? (I'm new to the thing - done just one video project so far).
When I imported photos from Aperture (first into the folder on desktop, and then from desktop to the Browser in FCEHD3.5, the photos have a black bar/a gray space above and below, and they appear too wide a bit on the right side, as if coming out of the Canvas'frame.
Is it a way to fit them into the 4:3 format, so they fit the whole screen (BTW - what view I should have set for Viewer and Canvas? A 100% or "Fit The Screen" view?).
Also: Is there a way to enter the same Transition in between all of my photos in the Timeline? (if so - how?)

Re the Canvas window ... before exporting your sequence, rendering, etc it should be set to Fit to Window, this can avoid problems
In FCE you can't set your own default transition. It is always the Cross Dissolve. If that is the one you want to use, when you drop your pics onto the timeline you can drag them over to Overwrite with Transition or hit Shift-F10. If you want to use multiple occurances of another trans, apply it once, double click to put it in the Viewer then just drop that down onto your clips
I haven't used Aperture but I think that how they appear in the timeline depends upon the size they are created in. Search this forum, there is plenty of info about that. Generally Final Cut sizes the pics to fit into your video sequence. Put a pic in the timeline, click it, select Edit>Remove Attributes and from the submenu select Motion, see what happens

How do i move photos from imovie to iphoto

How do I move photos from imovie to iphoto?

You cannot put photos in a trailer. They are designed for videos.
However, there is a way around this.
Go to the Project Library view. Select your Trailer. Now, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
Now you can add photos.

Using photos in iMovie

When using photos in iMovie, I want to be able to change the duration of a photo, within a group of photos, without affecting the duration of the other photos in the clip. Each time I change the duration of one photo, it alters the duration of the rest of the photos. Is there a way to change the duration of one photo without changing the others.

How do you import photos into imovie?

How do you import photos into imovie?

If you can open a Finder Window to your photos, you can drag them in to an iMovie project from the Finder.
Some third party apps might support drag and drop, but I haven't got Lightroom to test it. If drag and drop from LightRoom does not work, try exporting from LightRoom into a Finder folder and drag them in from there.

How do i use firefox as a web browser on my sony tablet s when i try it makes me choose google

i bought a Sony tablet S for my wife. She wants to access a program for work from home. I downloaded Mozilla firefox to the Sony, but when I open it, and go to type in a web address, it makes me choose Google as a search engine. How can I use Firefox on the Sony tablet? I did not see it in the list of supported devices. Please help. My wife is very frustrated, because she can only open her work program using Mozilla Firefox.

Hi Paulmozzi!
Here it is the supported devices list: http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/mobile/platforms/
However, because of the large number of Android devices (phones and tablets), not all new devices could be tested yet, but the list will continue to be updated.
I am not sure if I understand correctly your issue. When typing something in url bar, you will have at least 4 default search engines (Google, Wikipedia, Amazon, Twitter), so you can choose any of them. If you want to install more search engines, here it is a useful link for that: http://mycroft.mozdev.org/search-engines.html (open this link using Firefox Mobile on your tablet).
If you still need more help, please let us know. Any more details regarding your issue will be very useful.

How can i add photos to iMovie trailer

How can you add still photos to trailer in IMovie on IPAD2?

Currently the only way is to make in iMovie movie, and add the photos you wanted to use.
Export this to the camera roll, and import that video into the trailer.
Bit of a workaround sadly.

How can i use cropping in imovie 11 on the clips that i cut away with and still put it in HD

Hi there,
I do have one problem dealing with the videos I make in my iMovie 11: I want to set my videos to HD using Quicktime. I already know how to do that. But, the problem is that I use cropping and ken burn effects on my vids when I use cutaway (a really major problem since I use this most frequently in my videos), picture-in-picture, and side-by-side. After I exported my vids to Quicktime, I wanted to look at them. But, for some reason when I was watching my iMovie videos on Quicktime, it included every little bit of my clips. It didn't crop the clips at all. It showed everything. I'm kind of upset about this because I have projects due this month and I really didn't want part of some clips to show. I really needed them cropped and/or ken-burned. Plus, I need to set them on HD.
Whenever I played it back in the iMovie preview, my videos played exactly as I wanted it to play. The cutaway clips, picture-in-picture clips, and the side-by-side clips were cropped and ken-burned just as I wanted it to be. But, on my Quicktime, it didn't do the same.
Here's the procedure that I use to export my videos:
Step 1: I finish making my video with the cutaway clips, picture-in-picture clips, and side-by-side clips already cropped and/or ken-burned.
Step 2: I click on "Share." Then, I click on "Export using Quicktime."
Step 3: I click on "Options."
Step 4: I click on "Settings." Then, I make sure the Compression Type is H.264, Frame Rate is Current fps, Key Frames is on Every 24 frames, Frame Reordering is checked, Compressor Quality is on Best, Encoding is on Best Quality (Multi-pass), and the Data Rate is on Automatic. After this is done, I click "OK."
Step 5: I click on "Size." I make sure the Dimensions is on 1920 x 1080 HD (mainly because I really need it in HD for doing projects for school and uploading other videos to Youtube, Dailymotion, and other sites). I also click on Preserve aspect ratio using: Letterbox. Then, I click "OK."
Step 6: After I set the settings for Sound, I make sure that Prepare for Internet Streaming is on Fast Start. Then, I press "OK."
Step 7: I save my file name and export to Quicktime.
Step 8: Once it already exports to Quicktime, I open the file and look at my video that I just made. (At this point, I realized that my videos that were used as cutaways, picture-in-pictures, and side-by-side clips didn't show the parts I cropped or ken-burned on. It practically showed every little part of that clip that I use those effects on. I really wanted it to be cropped or ken-burned as much as possible.)
So, that's my problem that I have at the moment. I really needed it cropped and/or ken-burned and set the video on HD. I would really appreciate your thoughts on how I should fix this problem.

On one of my clips it says:
Format: Apple Intermediate Codec, 1280 x 720, Millions
16-bit integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
Current Size: 1280 x 720 pixels (Actual)
Another clip I use says:
Format: Apple Intermediate Codec, 960 x 540, Millions
16-bit integer (Little Endian), Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
Current Size: 960 x 540 pixels (Actual)

How do I use photos?

I did the upgrade to photo's from iphoto but have no idea how to use it. Some initial questions:
Which library do I upgrade? There were three on my iMac. One for each user file and one that was in shared.
Do I have to upgrade all of them? i.e. each user upgrade there library and then both do the shared? Or just do one?
What happens to the other library's when I only upgrade one?
Can I access other library's? Holding the alt key seemed to do the trick
Where is the documentation that explains how to use the software?
Do I have to use iCloud? I do not want too.
Can anyone give me a link to any documentation? I feel like an idiot because I cannot find it.
Thanks.

Banding using Photos in iMovie

I'm working on my first project in iMovie. I am importing still photos. I'm using some night photography shots and some late afternoon shots and I'm getting banding where it seems iMovie is not reading all the color information coming from my images. I started using sRGB color profile and played with different color profiles to see if that would remove the banding. No luck. I also seem to have to load my images into iPhoto rather than being able to import directly from the file where I keep them on my hard drive. (iPhoto is not my primary photo browsing tool.) iMovie doesn't seem to recognize the jpg files on my drive.
The banding or pixelization is really noticeable when I try to view my completed project. What do I need to do to get rid of the ugly banding?

I've got some banding issues too, only i'm not using any stills, just an HD video taken from a .mov off my Canon 5D ii. The .mov file has no banding, but the exported file does, even with no editing done.

How do i use photo geotagging with 3G Iphone?

Do i need a program from the App store? Or is it built in?

It only asks once if the camera can use location services, after that it geo tags every photograph as long as it has the GPS position. Note GPS not cell tower fix, i.e. the little flashing blue dot is on in maps, i.e you are outside or very near a clear view of the sky.
If you then load the pics into iPhoto or some other application and look at the photo data you will see the GPS coordinates buried in there.
I find it works quite well for outside shots. You can then send the pics to something like Palomino for use on Google Earth.
