How to set still duration = 1frame?

Can someone tell me how do I set still duration = 1frame, please?

A hunredth of a second in the preferences will produce a one frame image.
Why should it be in frames? What's 15 frames mean when practically every camera can shoot four differnt frame rates, and projects can be in a number of different frame rates. 15 frames in a 23.976 project is very different from 15 frames in 59.94 project.
Don't see what the big deal about converting the images to one frame is. Put all the images in a project. Select them all. Control-D. 1. Enter. Done.
If you really want to make image sequences in specific frame rates the best thing to do is still to use the QT7 player, open it there, specify your frame rate, and make a movie out of it,

  • How to set still photo display length

    How can I change the length that a still photos is displayed so I don't have to manually do this for each photo?
    Thanks

    Nik,
    This is done in Edit>Preferences>General. IIRC, the still Duration is in Frames, not seconds, so take note of that. Do this, prior to Import. It will also set the Duration for Titles, but they are easy to adjust for Duration.
    Good luck,

  • How to set the duration of each pic in a slideshow (and also how to pan and zoom)

    I have about 30 pictures I would like to add to a slide show.
    When I add them the duration for each picture is set to 6 seconds.
    I would like this changed to 4 seconds.
    But manually changing the duration of each individual picture, one by one, is a slow and tedious task.
    Is there a way of changing the duration of all my pictures at the same time, from 6 seconds to 4 seconds ?
    Or can I change a setting so that when I insert my pictures the duration is set to 4 seconds instead of 6 seconds ?
    As for the pan and zoom, I have seen the pan and zoom effect but this has a black border around the pictures as they zoom in and out.
    For example, when zooming in the picture starts small with a black border all round the edge.
    When zooming out the picture ends small with a black border all round the edge.
    Is there a way to pan and zoom starting with a full screen when zooming in, and ending with a full screen when zooming out ?
    Thereby not showing any ugly black borders.
    My Nokia N73 phone can do it !
    You can view the pictures as a slide show and when it pans and zooms it looks so much better because it does not show any black borders.
    The picture ALWAYS fills the screen even though it is panning and zooming.

    If you go to Edit/Preferences, you can set the default duration for each slide. This will affect only those photos you've imported into your project AFTER changing this preference.
    You should also turn off the preference for Scale to Frame Size, so your photos do not fill the screen. (And, for efficiency's sake, make sure your source photos are no larger than 1000x750 pixels, per the FAQs at the top of this forum.)
    You can also set the duration of each slide by selecting all of the stills you want to include on in your slideshow, right-clicking and selecting the Create Slideshow option.

  • How to make stills duration less than 00:00:00:01 ?

    Hi,
    This may seem an odd request, but I have a sequence of several stills of a propeller blade on a model, sort of time lapse, move and photo etc, which when played together rotates the prop. They are currently set to 00:00:00:01 and play loop sees a very slow rotation. I thus need to make them even less than that duration. Is that possible and how is it done ? They currently form the project. R/click duration and altering 01 to 001 doesnt work, the last two numbers being frame number and 25fps is the project value.
    Perhaps I need to make the project more than 25fps, so that 00:00:00:01 which means 1 frame I presume, will be seen as far less of a second than 1/25th ? How do I set project to a higher fps if this is the solution ?   Then would I save out or export the finished film as a 25fps clip to use elsewhere ?
    I also found it silly that I had to right click on each stills clip in timelie and choose duration. I tried selecting all of them and r/click duration but duration was greyed out. If I had a lot there, surely there must be a way of making all their durations the same amount at once ?
    I am unable to zoom the timeline to drag their size less.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the sugestions.
    I have not yet transferred a Sequence, I have created a second sequence and dragged it out as a floating window, then dragged a selection box across my stills and dragged them over to it, but no doubt this isnt the way to make them all a combined duration of say 1 frame. They still have separate properties. How is it done such that I can give them as you say one duration for the entire lot.
    AE no doubt is After Effects. another purchase. Working on it !

  • How to set duration of multiple tasks

    Hello all.  I am a new LabVIEW user and have a question on how to set a duration of a specific task and then initializing the start of another.  I am using an Agilent N3300A load and I would like to simulate the "power-up" of the device I am working on.  I want the code to start at 15A and then after approximately 1-2 milliseconds automatically drop down to 7A and continuously run.  I am using GPIB and have set up a code to continuously run, but have not been able to achieve my goal.  When I try to set up my timing, I can only achieve some sort of offset for each measurement.  I've been attempting to use a timing loop, but do not entirely know how those work.  Is there a simple solution that I am not aware of?  Thank you to all of you who can help.

    Do you know if your load can be programmed to do the current transition for you? I have a Sorensen that has two programmable levels which can be set to constant current, resistance or power. You can program it to go from one level to the other after a programmable time. You can also program the rising and falling slew rates independantly. The load has an analog 0-10V input that can be connected to a function generator, arbitrary waveform generator or one of the NI DAQ cards so that you can make any current waveform you want.
    Although I am not familiar with Agilent loads I would be surprised if they can not do something similar. If your load has this capability then that is definately the way to go. Even with LabVIEW Real Time you will have to consider communications latency issues especially if they are not deterministic.

  • How to set default transition duration?

    I can't believe Premiere would be so lacking in something so basic that is available in every other NLE I've used, but I can't find a way to set a default audio transition that also allows me to set half a second and not the 1 second default. I don't want to apply a lot of cross fades and then having to go to each of them and typing 15 and enter.
    Also, there is an easy way to save any filter as a user preset, including combinations of filters as one preset, but the same is not possible for transitions, audio or video, am I missing something?

    Jim Simon wrote:
    Maybe I misunderstand but...you can.  Right click any transition to set it as the default.  Alan told you in post 1 how to set the duration.
    So...what's the gripe?
    I'm talking about saving transition presets with any duration you want, as well as different types of transitions, like having a cross dissolve that is half a second, another that is 2 seconds, a dip to black that is three, and an exponential fade that is 2 seconds, etc, all accessible in the top Presets folder, instead of having to dig inside a folder that is inside another folder in the effects tab. This is something you can do easily in every other NLE I can remember, Edius, FCP classic, and Vegas if I remember correctly, but I haven't used the last one in a while, although I remember clearly that you can set a script in it to do anything you want, including a fade in and fade out. Why isn't something so basic in Premiere, especially when you can save any filter as a preset? I understand that not all features can be implemented at once, but this is something that has been on NLEs for at least the past ten years. Isn't it about time that Premiere catches up to the rest?
    I totally agree with you. Right now the way transitions works (doesn't work, actually) is completely utterly retarded.
    You can only set ONE default transition. Only ONE, because there is NEVER going to be a time when you want to frequently use 2, 3, 4 different transitions. NEVER.
    You have to dig into the *system preferences* menu to set the duration of that ONE transition. And you can only set ONE duration for ONE transition. There will never ever be a time anyone would ever want to have a few frequent transitions with different durations for each. No, we all only ever need ONE transition with ONE duration for EVERY SINGLE PROJECT WE DO.
    Can you tell that I'm frustrated?

  • How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?

    How do you set the duration for multiple stills in iMovie 2013?
    Before upgrading to the latest version of iMovie last month, I was able to set the duation of all of the stills included in an iMovie project at one time by clicking the apply to all still box in the adjustment pop up. That option is no longer apparent. If it is available I cannot find it, and I have tried several different ways to accomplish it. I have tried the iMovie help section and can find nothing to help.
    Apple, do I really have to adjust close to 500 pictures to a 5 second duration individually???
    REALLY??!!

    ...why wouldnt people want that level of accuracy when animating, especially when working to music at a specific duration?
    Because often people are animating to words or beats in the music.  Music is rarely performed with a computer-precise beat and tempo.  Musicians aren't robots: they swing the beat sometimes.  They use rubato.  They change tempo.  They change time signatures.  As a result, you have to FIND those words and beats.  It's not a situation where you can say, "There!  I've found the duration of one beat!  Now it's easy to find the rest of them!" 
    If you try it, you will be very disappointed.
    Try finding the precise end of a piece of music that fades or ends on a big chord with a ring-out.  You'll see that it's trial-and-error: what's the point where it becomes inaudible?  It depends on how high your speakers are turned up.  You might have them way up, you set an end point for the layer, and then you do a RAM Preview at a more reasonable volume.  You might say, "Hey!  The music ends before the layer ends!"...  but you KNOW you set the layer's out point when the audio file goes silent.
    AE has layer markers that can be used on an audio layer to mark beats, words, etc. They come in very handy.
    I guess it comes down to this: because AE can do so much different stuff, there are very few automated procedures.  Oh, Adobe tries with effects that convert audio levels to keyframes, but they're not 100% reliable... especially on something like a capella choral works.  For true accuracy, you need  find the timings yourself. 
    If you want something simpler, try a different application. But be prepared for lower level of accuracy.

  • How to set duration on multiple still images?

    Is there a way to select a range of stills within a project and set the duration of them all to the same value. One can copy the image adjustments from a still and then paste that to multiple stills, but there isn't a Paste Adjustments menu item for duration.
    The only way I've found to accomplish this is rather clumbsy. Copy the selected images to a new project and then with the project properties set all the durations to the same value there, and copy them back into the original project. This also limits the choices for the duration to whole seconds between 1 and 10, so if you want 1:15 we're out of luck apparently.
    Is there a better way?
    Also the min. duration seems to be 0:08. Setting the duration to anything less results in the duration being set to 0:08.

    AFAIK there is no easy way to set a range of clips to the same duration. The only method within iMovie I know of was the one outlined above, copy to a new project, set all in that project and copy back to original project. That works but is slow and a clumsy way to do it.
    What's missing is a paste duration command and/or a setting in the dialog to set duration for the selected photos (plural since the range has yellow outlines around the thumbnails, says to me they are the selected photos).
    Also the values as x:ff are not seconds. It's seconds and frames. So ff can only range between 0 and 29, thus 8.97 isn't a valid value and when I used it to set a duration the duration ended up being 11:07. I understand the 11 (90 additional frames, thus 3 seconds more) with 7 additional frames.
    Apparently you can not set a duration of just a single frame in iMovie - no subliminal messages allowed I guess. (There were no transitions between the images.)

  • How to change the duration of a sequence of stills all at once

    Hi.
    I know how to change the duration of one still, but changing the duration of many seems elusive.  I've gone to the Help menu and typed "Duration."  That points me to the menu where I would change the duration of one still.
    Thanks for your help!

    edit:
    For items already in the timeline, Select the each item in the timeline, right click and select "change speed" from the popup menu. You can not change the duration of a group of slides, only one at a time.
    To change images that are already imported but not in the timeline, there are two ways to go - the brute force method and the item by item method.
    Brute Force: Delete the stills from the Browser, change the duration of still setting in User Preferences>Editing to what you want, then reimport the stills. They will come in with the new duration. Changing the User Preference setting only affects stills imported after the change, it has no effect on material already in the Browser.
    Item By Item: Go to the still in the Browser and change the duration for it. Right click on the time and copy it. Select the next still image time, paste the new time in, rinse and repeat. If you have a lot of stills and they are well organized (ie all in the same folder), the brute force is probably faster.

    anyone?

    you can send keystrokes to invoke menu commands via shortcuts but as for transition time not sure. You've check the dictionary right? Scripting support is very limited in KN.

  • I set the duration of a clip and iMovie sets it to something else. So I try to set all stills to same length and iMovie sets them all to a different interval. Now I have a movie much longer than intended. ?!?!

    Well, the title of the question pretty much says it all.

    If you go to Edit/Preferences, you can set the default duration for each slide. This will affect only those photos you've imported into your project AFTER changing this preference.
    You should also turn off the preference for Scale to Frame Size, so your photos do not fill the screen. (And, for efficiency's sake, make sure your source photos are no larger than 1000x750 pixels, per the FAQs at the top of this forum.)

  • Setting Still Image Durations in Premiere Elements 8

    I've been using Premiere Elements 4 for awhile and never did find a solution to a simple problem.   Now I can't see any improvements worth anything in version 8 either.
    I have, say, 100 jpgs.  I want to create a slide show with, to start with, a constant duration of 10 seconds each.
    If I just add them all I get a duration of 5 seconds each.  There then seems to be no way to pick them in groups and change them to any other duration (a feature of a number of other DVD making programs).
    I deleted all the jpgs from the sceneline.  In preferences I set the duration to 350 frames (should be just over 11 seconds  -- but way not allow me to pick seconds - which is after all the result I want).  I readded all the jpgs from the project list and they didn't have 11 seconds duration (still 5).  Do I have to wipe the whole project.   Set the duration and reget all the media?
    I've googled away for awhile but am too dumb to find an answer to what should be a very simple question.
    I'm not clear I'm asking in the right place but I'm trying anyway.
    Thanks for any help that anyone can be.
    Paul

    Paul,
    The stills Duration setting has been Feature Request for some many versions now, and, as mentioned, just made it into PrPro with CS5. I would suggest filing that Feature Request for PrE, so that maybe it will be incorporated into PrE 9, due out in several months, if the normal life-cycle holds true.
    I am with you on seeing little, to no need to upgrade from PrE 4 to PrE 8, but have to admit that I felt the same way about PrPro, which I use much more often. However, the changes in the CS5 suite (especially PrPro and AE), has me working to get a new workstation and then the full upgrade. There are enough enhancements to sway me completely, even at the expense of new hardware.
    I do recommend Steve's articles on authoring in PrE, especially regarding the Menus. I've done a couple of articles in Tips & Tricks on modifying the Menu Sets, but Steve covers ALL topics, related to authoring. As I seldom do authoring in PrE, I have to go to his articles to "brush up," so I appreciate them greatly.
    Good luck,
