I need some help with my video - need to blur some footage.
Hi!
I was wondering if somebody could help me out with my video. I've got some video footage downloaded from the internet (with permission, of course) and I was wondering if there is any way I could blur the clip and then have it slowly fade into focus. I know how to blur the video (the Gaussian blur effect), but I basically want it to look like I've filmed the footage myself and I'm slowly turning the focus wheel until the image is in focus.
Obviously it's quite easy to do in-camera but for my film I needed footage of animals and wasn't able to film any of my own so I needed to source footage online. It's really imperative to my production that I get this blur thing working so if anyone can please explain to me the easiest way to do it then I would be extremely thankful! (That's if it is possible at all... I sure hope so)
I've searched online but so far I've only been able to find videos explaining how to blur a small section of the image (e.g. blurring out logos, faces, etc)
Thanks a lot
For what you want to do, the 'Camera Blur' effect (Windows only)
will work much better than Gaussian Blur.
Add the effect to the clip (or to an Adjustment Layer above to the clip),
then use keyframes to change the amount of blur over a specified
period of time.

Hello,
I please need help with embedding videos from youtube. I do this via the Web panel (not the video panel) and copied the embed code on Youtube and pasted it into my Indesign CS6 (autoplay activated). I did it according to that helpful video: http://blogs.adobe.com/jlockman/2013/06/04/embedding-youtube-videos-into-your-dps-project/
However, when testing this on my iPad, only a white box appears and I cannot press a play button.Are you sure, that you changed code from youtube?
Code from youtube is:
src="//www.youtube.com/embed/KulFWmvbEu4
but you need to change it to
src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KulFWmvbEu4
For us, best result is to embed video via:
menu Object > Include HTML (don't know exact english name of menu), paste iframe code with correct http link and then it works. -
Help with flash video buffering
I need help with flash video buffering. I've created a
buffering graphic to show up when the clip is loading. The problem
that I'm having is that when the video finishs playing, the buffer
is empty and the graphic pops back on. The following is the code
that I'm using to call and buffer the video. Any help would be
great!
stop();
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
ns.setBufferTime(10);
ns.onStatus = function(info){
if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Full"){
bufferClip._visible = false;
if(info.code == "NetStream.Buffer.Empty"){
bufferClip._visible = true;
if (info.code == "NetStream.Stop") {
bufferClip._visible = false;
theVideo.attachVideo (ns);
ns.play("my_clip.flv");
rewindButton.onRelease= function(){
ns.seek(0);
playButton.onRelease= function(){
ns.pause();
}Again thank you for your help in advance...
I put the script folder into the root. As far as the .flv
file it is showing up as being "put" to my web server. when i
checked the root folder it is there. again i am having the same
problem.. the local view works but when i check it on the web it
just shows that there should be a flash video there but it does not
show up.
i created a new root for this test page the new link is..
http://www.wfwa.org/TESTindexfolder/TESTindex.asp
here are the files that are showing up in it...
flashprojectwebvid.fla
flashprojectwebvid.html
flashprojectwebvid.swf
PBSpromo.flv
SteelExternalPlaySeekMute.swf
TESTindex.asp
and the Scripts folder
thanks again for any help.. -
Yea for the videos, I want to put some Red vs Blue videos on there. And so dar the only way that I see how to put them on there is to buy quicktime 7 pro. Cause it says you have to export them into Itunes. Is there any other way to do it because when I try to update my ipod with the Red vs Blue videos on my library list. It says," Some of the videos in your iTunes library, including the video [video name here], were not copied to the iPod [name of your ipod here] because they cannot be played on this iPod" It confused me when I have the fifth generation iPod.
Voden,
A quick search would have answered your question, as it gets asked about a dozen times a day.
Anyway, the iPod only supports 2 codecs for video, MPEG4 and H.264. On top of that, it needs to conform to the pixel dimensions and bitrate that the iPod will support as well.
Since you're on Windows, you can use Videora iPod Convertor to convert the videos to the correct format.

Please I really need help with this video problem.
Hi!
Please I need help with this app I am trying to make for an Android cellphone and I've been struggling with this for a couple of months.
I have a main flash file (video player.fla) that will load external swf files. This is the main screen.When I click the Sets Anteriores button I want to open another swf file called sets.swf.The app is freezing when I click Sets Anteriores button
Here is the code for this fla file.
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
preloaderBar.visible = false;
var loader:Loader = new Loader();
btHome.enabled = false;
var filme : String = "";
carregaFilme("home.swf");
function carregaFilme(filme : String ) :void
var reqMovie:URLRequest = new URLRequest(filme);
loader.load(reqMovie);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.OPEN,comeco);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS,progresso);
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE,completo);
palco.addChild(loader);
function comeco(event:Event):void
preloaderBar.visible = true;
preloaderBar.barra.scaleX = 0;
function progresso(e:ProgressEvent):void
var perc:Number = e.bytesLoaded / e.bytesTotal;
preloaderBar.percent.text = Math.ceil(perc*100).toString();
preloaderBar.barra.scaleX = perc;
function completo(e:Event):void
preloaderBar.percent.text = '';
preloaderBar.visible = false;
btHome.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,onHomeDown);
btHome.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,onHomeUp);
btSets.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,onSetsDown);
btSets.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,onSetsUp);
btVivo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,onVivoDown);
btVivo.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,onVivoUp);
btHome.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onHomeClick);
btSets.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,onSetsClick);
function onSetsClick(Event : MouseEvent) : void
if (filme != "sets.swf")
filme = "sets.swf";
carregaFilme("sets.swf");
function onHomeClick(Event : MouseEvent) : void
if (filme != "home.swf")
filme = "home.swf";
carregaFilme("home.swf");
function onHomeDown(Event : MouseEvent) : void
btHome.y += 1;
function onHomeUp(Event : MouseEvent) : void
btHome.y -= 1;
function onSetsDown(Event : MouseEvent) : void
btSets.y += 1;
function onSetsUp(Event : MouseEvent) : void
btSets.y -= 1;
function onVivoDown(Event : MouseEvent) : void
btVivo.y += 1;
function onVivoUp(Event : MouseEvent) : void
btVivo.y -= 1;
Now this is the sets.fla file:
Here is the code for sets.fla
import flash.utils.Timer;
import flash.events.TimerEvent;
var video:Video;
var nc:NetConnection;
var ns:NetStream;
var t : Timer = new Timer(1000,0);
var meta:Object = new Object();
this.addEventListener(Event.ADDED_TO_STAGE,init);
function init(e:Event):void{
video= new Video(320, 240);
addChild(video);
video.x = 80;
video.y = 100;
nc= new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
ns = new NetStream(nc);
ns.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS, onStatusEvent);
ns.bufferTime = 1;
ns.client = meta;
video.attachNetStream(ns);
ns.play("http://www.djchambinho.com/videos/segundaquinta.flv");
ns.pause();
t.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,timeHandler);
t.start();
function onStatusEvent(stat:Object):void
trace(stat.info.code);
meta.onMetaData = function(meta:Object)
trace(meta.duration);
function timeHandler(event : TimerEvent) : void
if (ns.bytesLoaded>0&&ns.bytesLoaded == ns.bytesTotal )
ns.resume();
t.removeEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER,timeHandler);
t.stop();
The problem is when I test it on my computer it works but when I upload it to my phone it freezes when I click Sets Anteriores button.
Please help me with this problem I dont know what else to do.
thank youMy first guess is you're simply generating an error. You'll always want to load this on your device in quick debugging over USB so you can see any errors you're generating.
Outside that, if you plan on accessing anything inside the SWF you should be loading the SWF into the correct context. Relevant sample code:
var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.[your_domain_here].com/library.swf");
var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
ldr.load(urlReq, context);

If you're doing this on iOS you'll need to stripped SWFs if you plan on using any coding (ABC) inside the files. You mentioned iOS so I won't get into that here, but just incase, here's info on stripping external SWFs:

I need help with streaming video
I have 7 videos I've produced that I would like to
progressively stream from my web site. They're all approx 400 x 200
about 2 minutes long with sound. I have a scene set up with each
video in a separate keyframe so you can navigate from one to the
other in the same scene.
I can get the videos to play locally. When I upload the swf
and .flvs to my server, they won't play. One error message I get on
output states that "**Warning** The linkage identifier
'FLVPlayback' was already assigned to the symbol 'FLVPlayback', and
cannot be assigned to the symbol 'golden', since linkage
identifiers must be unique." What I did there is rename each video
in my library from FLVPlayback to a unique name so I can identify
it.
I get that output error message for each of the videos that
I'm trying to publish. It sounds like I have to change the
Identifier in each video, but I haven't figured out how to do that.
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Ah, I see what happened. Every time I import a QT into the
library, Flash creates a FLVPlayback component along with a .flv
file. I cleared all but one FLVPlayback component and reimported
the .flvs to stage and now I have streaming video on the website.
Thanks clbeech, that was really helpful!
One more issue. I've selected one of the prebuilt skins
(Clearexternalplayseekmute.swf) to control video, while it works
locally, I can't see it on the server. Do the skins need additional
code to work? -

I was hoping to get some help with something that is frustrating me.
I have an .fla file with two frames. In the first frame I need a movie (.flv). When the movie ends I need to progress to the next frame on the time line.
I have converted the original .mov to an .flv and imported it into my file as an external viseo w/playback component and no skin. It is now in my library as FLVPlayback and I have given it an instance name of 'goFrame'. Its contentPath is the name of my .flv file (P1010472.flv)
So I put the FLVPlayback onto my first frame and I put a stop() in the actions for the frame; and I have text on the second frame, also with a stop to see when the frame has advanced.
I found this code:
var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
_root.gotoAndPlay(2);
myMedia.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject);
I was under the impression I put this code in the actions for the frame that has the video component (the first frame)
I replaced 'myMedia' with 'goFrame' which is the instance name I gave my FLVPlayback but what is the listener object? This is the code I now have on the first frame actions:
stop();
var FLVPlayback:Object = new Object();
FLVPlayback.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
gotoAndPlay(2);
goFrame.addEventListener("complete", listenerObject);
but it doesnt advance at the end of the video, it stop on frame 1 after playing the video.
I know I must name the 'listenerObject' and the 'myMedia' event listener but I must say I am simply confused what goes where. I may be a bit dense as I have been reading forums that are discussion this type of thing but cannot figure what name goes where in this code or if I am entering it correctly. It simply is not advancing.
can anyone give me a hint?

var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
listenerObject.complete = function(eventObject:Object):Void {

Help with putting videos on Ipod
Hey all. I'm a little new to this. I'm having trouble putting videos on my Ipod. When I try to put them in i get a message saying "Some of the songs in the Itunes music libary, including the song "...", were not copied to the IPod because they cannot be played on this IPod.
Maybe they're the wrong file type? It does this for every video I have. How can I solve this problem? Thanks for your help!you need to convert the videos either to .mov or .mp4. either will be compatible for the ipod. you need to use 3rd party software not supported by apple.windows users have had trouble or success using this software.

Im trying to add photos to my Itunes library but every time I go to the file and add it...it just doesnt go into my library....also when I play videos the audio doesnt work. I need some help please!
You can't add photos to your library. iTunes is only used to set up the photo preference choose the location from which photos are added to the iPod. Have a look at the tutorial: Transferring Pictures to Your iPod

Can someone help with importing video from Canon XA10 (AVCHD) into PE 11?
In PE 11 when I import video from my canon xa10 (avchd) the quality is terrible, I also have a canon xa20, 60D and gopro that I video with and they all turn out with great video quality. Is there a reason why the xa10 video quality is bad? Setting I need to change?

Thanks for the follow up.
In Premiere Elements 11 and 12 takes over setting the project preset based on the properties of the first file drag to the Timeline. Sometimes it does it right; sometimes not. You can check what the project has set by using the readings from Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Size, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out. If the project preset is set for NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080p30, then the Edit Menu/Project Settings/General should be as represented in the following screenshot
Please refer to setting the project preset yourself manually and then importing the source media into the project.
