  • Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

    If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

  • I can't see the duration in the timeline...

    I'm working in CP5 on a Mac and I can't see the slide duration in the timeline. It's cut off. I tried closing out the timeline panel and re-opening it. I tried dragging it up and down and I can't get the entire bar to show up. Has anyone had this problem?

  • "slashed out" multiclip, can't see video in monitor

    I was editing a multiclip in the multi camera monitor, and its all went fine. But back in the sequence, however, I see that the multiclip is slashed out. There are grey slashes running through the duration of the clip, and I see NO video upon playback. i hear sound, as there are no slashes through the audio tracks. but no video.
    what setting or button did I push (ie, what mistake did I make) to render the clip "slashed out" like this?

    Sounds like the video portion of the original clips somehow got deleted from the sequence.

  • 10.4.5 doesn't see my second monitor

    I just upgraded to 10.4.3 and then immediately after that to 10.4.5. Since I did, my computer can't see my second monitor. I ran the system profiler and it sees the second video card.
    This is not a problem in 9.2.2 and it wasn't a problem in 10.1.5. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!!

    It sounds like the firmware or drivers of the graphics card is out of date for 10.4 to understand there is a display connected to it or to give that option. Contact the graphics card vendor to see if there is more info you can get on either. Tell them the issue you are facing. Also check http://www.apple.com/swupdates/ if it was an Apple supplied graphics card as a build-to-order or part of the original release of that Mac model.
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/ has a good database of graphics cards you can choose from and their compatibility.

  • Can't see video for FCP X project!

    I was working on a video in Final Cut Pro X, but I wonder if I did something wrong; after last night all of a sudden I can't see the project in the timeline in the application's preview window! I'm able to see the clips in the event window, but not what's in my project window/timeline. Any ideas on how to help me?

    I can see the clips with thumbnails on them, but in the viewer window I cannot see anything, but I can hear the audio. I may post screenshots.
    Unusually, it's only with this one project, and when I open another project, I can see that one's footage. When I skim this troublesome project in the "Projects" window I can see it, but not when the project is open?

  • I can't see video on my monitor while I edit

    Hello folks,
    The other day, I was trying to add some
    motion effects using Motion with transfered
    clip from Final Cut Pro but all of sudden
    video play on my monitor won't show anything
    and even after I went back to final cut pro,
    it won't show anything while I edited.
    I thought it was just that particular clips or project
    but it affects the whole FCP program and I can't see
    anything both on the monitor nor canvas!
    I now stopped working on my project because of it.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and
    please provide me some answers to solve this problem!
    Thank you so much in advance folks!

    Another issue might be that you have two or more output devices, like a blackmagic card for example make sure under view... (sorry I don't have FCP here, I don't remember the name of the submenu but I think it's 2 subs under external...) that you have the right device selected.

    When I have video clips on my timeline, they do not play in the monitor screen. I hear the sound track but can not see the image. To test if my new files are somehow the problem, I went back and used video files that I used successfully a year ago, and they no longer play in the monitor window. I hear the sound track, but do not see any video. Have I changed some setting that controls video playback in the monitor window?

    Thanks for the follow up.
    Missing in this equation were the version of Premiere Elements that you were using and the computer operating system on which it was running. But...
    The deed is done. But.....Until now and after you went ahead and moved to version 12, we now learn what version of Premiere Elements you were using. We still do not know the computer operating system involved.
    You just said Premiere Elements 10. Premiere Elements 10 is hit by a serious known display issue if the computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card/graphics card. In this issue, the only remedy is to roll back the driver version to about May 2013. The description of the problem and how to do the roll back are described in one of the Announcements at the top of this forum. What video card/graphics card does your computer use?
    On another front, Adobe will be releasing a new version of Premiere Elements any day now. No one but Adobe knows the feature set for the new version. That type of information is announced at the moment of release of the new version.
    So the remedy to the problem that you presented in this thread could have been...
    1. Rolling back the NVIDIA GeForce driver version to about May 2013 if possible (Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, may not be possible)
    2. Move to another version of Premiere Elements (which you did)
    I offer the above for consideration so that you can review your decisions. We are pleased to learn that Premiere Elements 12/12.1 works for you.
    Please do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for clarifications, but remember that the answers are in the details.
    Best wishes,

  • How can I see Timeline in TV monitor?

    Hi
    Can anybody help me? I use TV monitor as second monitor for seeing my video output, I dont have capture card so I set it via my Graphic card, I am using Edius and I can see Timeline in full screen mode in TV but I cant set it in Adobes products, I changed some things in Preferences but nothing changed, can anybody help me and tell me how I can see Premiere and After Effect timeline in TV monitor via my Graphic card?
    Thanks for any help.

    RAM previews in full screen mode should give you what you need... Just check the respective option on the time control panel. There's other shortcuts for maximizing the working space to full screen. Look it up in the help. I never use it... And of course the tilde key will maximize any current panel...

  • I have a dvr and I want to monitor from my phone.  this worked when I had a Belkin router that let me open ports.  I use "canyouseeme" and it can't see 80, 9000 or 1025. How do I make them available?

    I have a Lorex DVR that I want to monitor from my IPhone and IPad.  I used to be able to do this when I had a Belkin router (easy to open ports) but I bought the AirPort Extreme router and no longer have that capability.  When I use "canyouseeme" they can NOT see 80, 9000 or 1025.  Lorex says I need them all available in order to access.  Help!  And all the help I see refers to a earlier version of the AirPort Utility so I cant use those to look at anything, I cant find the same screens, I have version 6.1 (610.31).  I also don't really understand how ports work, so I need a pretty basic explanation.

    Well...I went to the modem (Westell, WireSpeed), found the NAT settings, once again, I'm WAY over my head, I am assuming this is a TCP connection (as opposed to a UDP) and per Lorex my mobile devices will use port 1025.  So I gave it a "global port range" of 1-10 and I indicated that the "base host port" was 80, 1025, & 9000 (ports 1,2,3).  When I selected the 'enable' it asked for a "host devise" my choices are my IPhone, IMac and the IP address for the dvr, so I choose the dvr.  I still cannot connect and canyouseeme still can NOT find these open ports.  This is taking up my whole day! I don't know how people figure this stuff out.

  • Can't see timeline on external monitor?

    This may end up being something painfully obvious that I missed - in that case, sorry in advance. =)
    I can't see the timeline. The setup is as follows: Firewire DV to camera>Svideo out of camera to external monitor.
    AV settings: device control preset firewire ntsc, video playback Apple Firewire NTSC. AV Devices: Apple Firewire NTSC (mirror on desktop).
    Under view menu: External video> all frames
    Video playback: Apple Firewire NTSC.
    The camera is in VCR mode. I can control it from the log and capture window, so all connections are working. But the timeline will not show.
    When the camera is in camera mode, I can see the number display on my external monitor.
    Any idea where the problem lies here?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Multicam Edit/Can't See Video on Canvas

    I'm doing a six-cam multicam edit. Everything was going perfect until my hand accidentally hit the keyboard. I don't know which key(s) I hit.
    Not I can't see my video on the Canvas and my multiclips clips won't play in synch in the Viewer. I do hear the audio when I play the Timeline.
    I opened another clip and it won't play. Nothing will play in the Canvas.
    What the heck did I hit and how do I fix it? I'm working on a MacBook. All my video is on an external G Drive connected with a FireWire 800 cable.

    Thank you. I can't believe that. After so many projects I didn't even know that could happen.
    What a relief. I'm an hour into this 90 minute musical. I was dreading having to start again.
    Again... thanks.

  • Can't see post on a Presario CQ56-219WM while using an external monitor

    I can't see any post info on a Presario CQ56-219WM while using an external monitor. The built-in monitor has been broken for some time and I've been using an external monitor via the vga port. Recently I had an issue with Windows and must now perform a system recovery. Whereas the built-in monitor does light up there is no portion that is viewable. It's damaged in a way that has everything totally distorted. I disconnected it hoping that the system would reroute directly to the external but unfortunately it didn't. I'm confident that my tinkering inside the laptop wasn't a factor since prior to disassembly the external monitor was never active until the system booted into Windows, plus I can reconnect the built-in monitor and it still lights up just as it did before.
    Is there any known keystrokes to activate the external during post?...other than the F4 key

    Hello Kerdomrikman,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    In regards to your question on known keystrokes to activate external during post, there aren't any. The graphics won't switch to external until after the post.
    What you can try, if your able to veiw the BIOS on the external you can run diagnostics from there.
    I hope this answers your question. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • Monitor Sessions can't see most sessions?

    Symptom: Session Monitor nearly always displays “No text available” for a session’s current statement.
    Diagnosis:
    1.     I can’t see SQL for most sessions, even if I login as user SYS with the SYSDBA privilege.
    2.     Manual says:
    Monitor Sessions: Displays the status of one or more sessions, using information from the V$RSRC_SESSION_INFO view, which shows how the session has been affected by the Oracle Database Resource Manager.
    3.     When connected as system, I can select from the table Session Monitor uses, both on the server and via SQL Developer:
    SQL> select count(*) from V$RSRC_SESSION_INFO;
    50
    4.     In comparison, TOAD can display SQL for any user if I connect as user system . Run side by side, TOAD displays SQL for sessions that SQL Developer won’t display.

    Might be that TOAD displays the last executed statement rather than sqldev's current executing statement?
