How to make a still frame of iDVD menu?

I want to make a DVD label and cover that copy the title menu page. How do I make a still frame that I could manipulate in iPhoto or Photoshop?
Thanks
Ashley

I do this all the time. Turn off motion at a point you like.
Go into the Applications folder. Find the Utilities folder. Open it. Find Grab. Double-click on it. Go into the Menu, click on Capture and select Selection. Now, drag your cursor across the menu and release. Name and save the image (to your desktop?).
Open in Photoshop (or Elements). Crop to 4.75 x 4.75 inches for Apple's CD case. Crop to 5.125 x 7.25 inches for DVD case. Print and insert.
Not exactly "easy," but it works for me.

  • How to make a modal frame?

    Hello!
    My problem is quite simple, but I don't know how to make some MODAL frames (JFrame I mean). In my application, the user can open a same frame even if this frame is already opened and that's not really good.
    So, I want the user to close the frame before opening another one.
    Can anyone explain me how to do that?

    Generally your actionListener will be an internal class of your main frame class. Usually an anonymous internal class. That means it can act on variables in the frame (which is the sensible place to keep the flags).
    Something like:
    class Class1 extends JDesktop {
    boolean itsOpen = false;
    openAction.setActionListener(new ActionListener(){
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        if(!itsOpen) {
           itsOpen = true;
           openAction.setEnabled(false);
           MyInternalFrame newFrame = new MyInternalFrame(Class1.this, ....);
           add(newFrame);
       });You do need some way for the internal frame to act on the variables in the main frame. There are various ways of achieving this.
    If we're dealing with a genuine InternalFrame there's a special InternalFrameListener (?) which allows your main frame to listen for the window closing. You can use this instead of hacking the dispose method.
    If you're main frame is a JDeskTop then you can use getDesktop() in your internal frame to access it, then cast the result to the real class of your desktop.
    Our you can simply add a pointer to your class1 to the contructor of your internal frame class.
    You could even get clever and create your own listener system.

  • How do I make a still frame in iMovie and send it to iPhoto?

    How do I take a still frame from a movie clip in iMovie and send it to iPhoto?
    The goal is when I export my movie to iDVD, I want to use still clips from my movie as the rotating images. Right now it either plays through the DVD in the rotating part or I can drag pictures from iPhoto into the slots.
    Thanks!

    Have a look at this thread:

    Ask your question in iMovie Help.
    It is an invaluable resource.

  • How do i set still frame length default?

    hello,
    an animator gave me some sequential .png files for a short 5 second clip.
    they are all still frames, but my final cut keeps importing them each as 10 seconds in length as default.
    how do i make it one frame each so that when i drag to my timeline it flows like a video?
    thanks!
    steven

    Final Cut Pro: User Preferences: Editing Tab
    First box is "Still/Freeze Duration." Set that to your desired length, in your case, one frame. When you place your frames on the timeline, they should now be one frame each.
    You may have to create a new sequence for this to take effect (I can't remember right now if this is one of the settings that requires a new sequence or not).

  • How to Make a Still from Video and Burning a DVD

    Hello All,
    I am using FCP HD and I would like to know how do you make a still photo from video footage?
    Also I have to burn an editing project to dvd. I don't know how to use studio pro, but the person said that it needs to be a ntsc full resolution version. I am not sure what that means.
    The project is about 10 minutes long and this person had me using the H.264. I have been playing around and I think I not doing something write because when I send the project to compressor it tells me that I have like 200+ hours befoe it outputs.
    Could someone give me some simple instructions using the H.264 on how to do a good large size (over 320x240) QT movie to dvd?
    THANKS...

    To export a still park the playhead on the image you want, mark IN OUT, go to FILE>EXPORT>QUICKTIME CONVERSION. Click on QUICKTIME MOVIE and In the dropdown choose STILL IMAGE.
    You will have to De-Interlace it in Photoshop after you export.
    As for making the DVD:
    Shane's Stock Answer #3:
    To export your DV project so there is no loss in quality, simply go to the File Menu and select EXPORT>QUICKTIME MOVIE. Not Quicktime Conversion, fot this will compress the footage. Make sure the settings match your timeline settings, make it self contained and you are set.
    Import this into iDVD or DVDSP and burn your DVD. Don't go the h.264 route.

  • How to make a still picture rotate around a vertical axis ?

    H there,
    Can I know how do I make a still picture rotate around a vertical axis ?
    Thanks

    Thanks MTD,
    It is indeed one good trick ...
    From your timeline, it seems that you applied a transition after each clip. Can I know why & what transition you applied ?
    Can you please elaborate what you meant by "I changed the last keyframe in the last clip to a Smooth" ?
    Thanks again ...
    Cheers

    Hi -
    While Mr. Wolsky is absolutely correct that you need the other software to do the effect you describe correctly, I believe you can make an approximation of what you want using FCE. Whether or not it passes the smell test is up to you.
    You can see a clip I made [HERE|http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/3DTurn_Example.mov]
    Because when you rotate the frame 360 degrees using the Y-axis, the image always comes back to the same position - which gives you a handy place to match cut to the next implementation of the rotation at a slightly slower pace. The last rotation was smoothed to a stop by modifying the filter keyframe to "Smooth".
    So (not acounting for the pad video at the head and tail of the clip, a 1 second clip, followed by a 2 second clip, followed by a 4 second clip to give me a 7 second move.
    !http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/3dTurnTimeline.jpg!
    I applied the filter to the first clip, and set it so that it went from -360 to 360 in Y axis rotation. I then copied that clip and used Command -V to apply the same effect to the next to clips via paste attributes, UNCHECKING the Scale Attribute Times so that the spinning would slow down as the clips lengthened.
    Lastly, I changed the last keyframe in the last clip to a "Smooth" , and added head and tail trim to the entire effect so the bars would start static, spin and the end static.
    Like I say, it's far from perfect but may either point you toward a solution or trigger ideas of your own.

  • How to make a commentary track in iDVD and iMovie 6

    Could someone please explain how to make a commentary track using iMovie6 and iDVD? I think I will be able to import the commentary track onto the second sound track in iMovie 6 with no problem. I just can't figure out how to make it an optional track in the final DVD.

    Yes, you can put the commentary track on the second sound track in 06. You can also attach a mic and make the commentary as a recording. I will caution that you will need to depress any original sounds associated with the film so that it does not sound like a garbled mess with both tracks competing. I imagine you know how to grab the volume level line in the audio track and nudge it lower or higher?
    I also don't see any other option than including two versions of the film on the DVD. Pretty simple fix if it will fit... I would export the plain film first before adding the other audio (or you can simply uncheck one of the audio tracks while exporting to mute it).
