How to extend time on imported still

I imported a still I created in Photoshop. I want to extend the amount of time it lasts after I placed it on the timeline. I tried creating a still from it, but the quality suffered. Is there a way to stretch it while on the timeline? Thanks.

Go to the View menu and uncheck Show Clip Volume Levels. Then in timeline view put your cursor on the edge of the still clip. The cursor will morph into another shape. Drag the edge of the clip to the right or left to lenghten or shorten it.
Another way is to control click on the still clip, and in the drop down menu select Show Info. In the time box, change the duration to lengthen or shorten the clip.

  • Default duration time for importing still images

    Hello all,
    Is there an easy way to change the default duration time for imported still images?
    I have thousands of images that I want to import to make a time elapsed movie. I would like for these images to have a duration of less than a second. I could do this individually, but it would take forever.
    Can the default duration time for imported images be changed?
    Thanks,
    Adam

    Hi
    Too long time I made anything serious in iMovie HD6 (altough a a very competent editor)
    (Took the FinalCut leap)
    As I remember (just tested) it - if photos are imported then it's a tedious labor
    to set duration - one at a time. No global function I can induce.
    BUT - I would put my photos into a separate folder in iPhoto so that they are easy
    to get in iMovie from audio/photo browser.
    Then I select (in iMovie) the first photo and double click on it to view it on canvas.
    Now I also get a small gray window where I can set size and duration.
    I select 01:00 (1 sec) in duration and Apply/Use.
    Then I selec the rest of the photos and drag them down to TimeLine after first
    photo. And they also get same duration of 01:00.

    You can install Perian,

    although this will be the last version, and Flip4Mac.

    Otherwise you may have to look at a different and more extensive player such as VLC

  • How to mix time lapse with still images and imported movies ?

    Hello
    I have been shooting photos (time lapse with Camera Pro) and movies with a Nokia N8 and would love to use iMovie to mount all that.
    Unfortunately, for the time lapse I cannot get the duration of the photos to 0.03s, it just won't accept it. I have been looking around the forum and could only find sort of solutions when you have a transition or effect on the pictures but not when they are just fit to the screen...
    So now the time lapse looks much slower and broken than the movie itself... and it does not look nice.
    Another way would be to make the time lapse with QT Pro and then import it but I am affraid I am loosing quality in the process.
    Anybody knows how to fix this duration problem ?
    Thank you in advance for any helpful answer.

    Able, Jim,
    thanks a lot, both solutions work just fine.
    Take the first image, adjust the Effects, copy it, select the other images and past attributes
    and
    just put all images together, make a new sequence and use that first sequence as nested sequence and put the effects on that

  • How to extend time capsule wifi range

    I have recently purchasd a Time Capsule 4th Generation 2TB, hoping it would provide better wifi network all over my house. We live in a 2 story concrete building. It is not possible to connect both the floors with ethernet ( CAT 3 ) cables. I have my old wifi router D-Link DIR-300. Is there a way i can use DIR-300 to extend my wifi range.
    Ground floor - Time Capsule
    First Floor - DIR 300
    Note: I do get a poor signal on the first floor on my MBP but my I phone 4 and I pad ( first Generation ) does not recieve any signal.
    Since i already own a wireless router i did not want to spend on the airport express for the same purpose.
    If anyone can help me connecting DIR-300 to TC to improve the network range.

    I have my old wifi router D-Link DIR-300. Is there a way i can use DIR-300 to extend my wifi range.
    Unfortunately, this would not be possible if you plan to connect the D-Link device to the Time Capsule using wireless only, since Apple and D-Link products are not compatible for this purpose.
    If you can connect the D-Link to the Time Capsule using an Ethernet connection, it would be possible to configure the D-Link to provide additional wireless coverage that way.
    If you cannot run the Ethernet cable, a pair of Ethernet powerline adapters might be able to send an "Ethernet" signal over the existing AC powerlines in your home.
    In other words, you already have the wiring in place....you just need the adapters.
    Unfortunately again....the Ethernet powerline adapters will likely be about the same cost as an AirPort Express. Since you note that you live in a concrete building....the adapters might be first choice over a wireless only setup.
    In either case, you will not know how well the setup will work until you try. For that reason, it would be a good idea to have a good understanding of the store's return policy in case things do not work out as expected.

  • How to extend Time Capsule using ethernet

    I've a Time Capsule serving my wireless network. Currently I have a AirPort Express where the chosen wireless mode is: Extend a wireless network. This setup is working fine.
    I'm wondering if it is possible to connect an ethernet cable from the Time Capsule to the AirPort Express, and extend the wired signal? Currently the AirPort Express is receiving the signal wirelessly and extending it wirelessly.

    Ethernet is the better way to do this if you can run the cable since it preserves maximum bandwidth on the network.
    You'll need to configure the Express to "create a wireless network" (not "extend" as you might think) using the same wireless network name, security and password as the Time Capsule. The Express must be configured in Bridge Mode as well for this to work correctly.
    Post back if you need more details about this type of "roaming" network configuration.

  • How to extend time before sleep mode initiates ?

    I just want to change the timing before it goes to sleep so the screen stays active whiteout me putting in input of some kind.  My computer times out very quickly while I'm doing work so I then have to login when I go back to use it. It doesn't last longer than a couple of minutes (if that). I just got this MacBook Air and am unfamiliar with MacBooks. Sorry if it is something easy.

  • Extend time in Timeline of imported 3D object for animation in CS4?

    Hello guys,
    I have very strange problem with CS4 and imported either 3DS or OBJ files:
    When I open 3DS or OBJ file, lets say - a car object, I draw some dirty textures over it and then open Animation window and want to animate
    it by simple rotation. When I open animation window with timeline, I then go to pull-down menu to the right and open Document Settings.
    Then I set time from default 3:10 seconds animation lenght to 10:00 seconds, for example, and set playback speed from 30 to 25fps.
    But then - I can NOT extend manually timeline of selected object I want to animate. It is FIXED to 3:10 seconds.
    Is it a bug and how to avoid it?
    My solution was - to open this object into 3D Studio Max and then in its time line set from 100 frames to lets say - 500 frames animation lenght and then save back again, but this is very slow operation and requires full working 3D Studio that my firm do not have...
    Any ideas about how to extend time in animation timeline of imported 3D objects for animating in CS4?
    Thank you very much.
    n.

    You did not look down far enough. Below them are some layers in blue (or other solid color) Twirl down the one that says 3D Meshes. Click on the small stopwatch for the object move your playhead ahead in time then rotate your mesh. The easiest way to rotate the mesh is using the text fields in the mesh's properties.

  • I want to import still images to make a stop motion animation, but when I try to change the duration of still images, it isn't reflected in the timeline.  How can I do this?

    Tonaw,
    If you import your still images using iPhoto, then the time you set for each still, using FCPX Perferences works.
    You can set the durantion from 1 frame to as long as you want them view.
    If you do not use iPhoto to import your stills, the default is 10 sec's.
    FYI: This issue was brought up within a month after FCPX was released. They found out by using iPhoto, you had better control of the amount of time your still was viewed.

  • I have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

    i have question about hooking up an external hdd to a time capsule and still have my printer hooked up as well. Anyone got any tips for me, how to do it and what brand of harddrive that will work best for me 1 or 2 TB

    You just need a powered hub.. if you already use one then fine.
    Plug in just about any external hard disk will work fine. Format has to be readable by the TC.. ie fat32.. or much better HFS+.. plug it into a Mac to prepare the drive.
    Pick whatever size suits.. nowadays 2TB are most economical.
    WD, Seagate have goobled up all the minor players.. so pick one.
    Whatever suits your budget and asthetics.
    NOTE.. The USB on the TC is fine for printers.. IMHO it is the wrong way to go with USB disks.. use the internal disk of the TC.. USB is less than half the native speed plugged into a Mac.. TC to USB is slow.. far slower than internal drive.. or using external drive as external.

  • Animation. How do I import still images in final cut pro x (from dragon frame) duration 3 frames pr. image?

    Animation. How do I import still images in final cut pro x (from dragon frame) duration 3 frames pr. image? We have allready tried to set stillimages duration in preferences to 0,08 sek, but it does not have any effect!

    You can drag your images to the timeline, select all, ctrl-d and set the duration to 3 frames by typing 3 and enter.
    Or you can use Quicktime 7 to "open image sequence", select the desired duration, export your animation to quicktime and import that into FCP X for further editing.
