Image Brightness Question.

I am trying to make an effect with a short clip where the image appears to be to bright and then keystone it so the contrast adjust to normal within 3 seconds.
I have the clip in the viewer, but do not know if this is possible.

Thanks I was using the "Image Control" effect "Brightness & Contrast", but was applying the keystone button incorrectly. I was selecting keystone button after making the adjustment and it would go back to normal. I did not notice that it makes its own keystone by itself when I make the adjustment, and I kept on deleting it.
For my effect I have a PIP image imposed on a movie screen and I want it to appear bright and as the room darkens I am trying to adjust the PIP image back to normal timing it with the room going dark.
I assume this "Image Control" effect is the best way and easiest way to accomplish this shot.

Image Brightness Changes When Authoring DVDs

Hello,
To encode footage I export 720 24p footage from FCP as a Quicktime .mov using Microcosm then encode in Compressor using the standard Best Quality, 16:9, SD setting. The Quicktime .mov and the encoded .m2v file plays with the same image brightness and contrast as does the original footage in the FCP timeline, but once I author it in Studio Pro it consistenly looks lighter and consequently washed out when played back on the same monitor from the DVD. It also ends up looking lighter when played on a TV than programs from a typical rental DVD movie.
I set up my 23" Cine display carefully with with Apple's advanced profiling software, and images and color bars match footage displayed on my Sony PVM-14M that has been set up with color bars through a decklink card.
Can anyone offer advice about why this may be happening? So far my only fix is to arbitrarely change image brightness when encoding with Compressor. Is there some change I should be making in FCP to go from 720 24p HD footage to SD encodes?
Thanks,

I have read on various forums that people are getting better encodes from HD footage by exporting to a Quicktime file before encoding. Several people have complained about the results exporting directly to Compressor. I take it you haven't found this to be a problem?

Image Printing Question

Hello,
Bottom line summary: How do I use the Media and Quality setting to get a good image?
I have an image printing question for an HP 8600 Office. I am trying to get a decent quality image to print
on regular paper. I gather that I will not get the quality of a photo printer. I gather I'm supposed to use
HP glossy paper. Please read on ...
Images come out grainy (rastery) when embedded from an MSPaint project, and if I use Word. However when I printed just an image from image viewer it came like a photo ... but I can't remember what I did. It definitely is capable of printing better. My cartridges all check out, etc. I did the Print Quality Report ... I sure wish I could get that quality when I print other things.
I tried messing with different settings from the Print - Preference. The Quality (Best, Normal, Draft) doesn't effect the outcome. I tried going into Print - Preference - Media and it makes a difference. I can't figure out which is the best setting for plain paper ... but it's not plain paper. The image rendering algorithm appears to be different for different Media settings. I also tried setting the Advanced Resolution to Maximum DPI. I haven't been totally methodical about this as I was in a rush.
I see that the printer is being "smart", perhaps a little too smart.
So my question is multipart:
- Is there documenation on the what the Print - Preference - Media settings do?
- How do I get it to not use grainy/rastery image method, but use the nicer photo method?
- Should I print Maximum DPI?
Thanks,
- Dave -

Hi @DaveGold , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I hope you had a great holiday!
I see you're looking into photo setup options. I'd like to help!
First I'd recommend this document on Changing Print Settings in Windows 7. This document should show all the settings you're looking into.
Also, another thing to keep in mind, when you select 'best print quality' and 'photo paper'. It will only be as good as the source image.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!

Safari broken image link question mark in a blue box icon

The url I get the safari broken image link question mark in a blue box icon most often is "apple.com/startpage/". There may be 10 or 12 of them. However, most apple.com pages have at least 1. In fact I am looking at 1 right now. I have emptied the cache. I do not wish to reset Safari because I do not want to reenter all of the passwords to various sites. Is there a simple answer?

Hi Rex,
Who is your ISP and what addresses do you have set in the DNS section of your System Preferences -> Network preferences?
Have you tried logging into a different user account on your machine to see if that has the same problem? This will help us to know whether your problem is local to your account or system wide. If you don't have another account you can use System Preferences -> Accounts -> [+] to create a test one (and [-] to remove it if needed)
Also, do you use any third party internet software (Norton, Intego, etc.)?

Image Adjustments Questions

So many sliders and so little time. Iam a little conflicted by the various sliders in Aperture 3.
I mostly shoot in RAW and sometimes work on JPEGS from a different camera.
I would be setting blacks, white and midtone levels early in the work flow.
For blacks one could use:
Black Point
Shadows ( I understand this          slider is for when the images that have full tonal range but lack          detail in shadows.
Levels
For whites one could use:
Exposeure to some extent while          watching highlights
Recovery for blown out or clipped          whites
Highlights
Levels ( Gray )
For midtones the choices are fewer
Brightness
Levels
I may be missing some, but this is whatI have gathered so far in my Aperture learning curve.
I think that blacks are my biggestsource of confusion. Do I use Black Point or go for levels to setblack in the image ?
For the whites I think the rightsliders might be levels and recovery, when exposure is right.
Any insight would be appreciated.

Excellent question!
I believe that the best strategy is to apply the adjustments in the order they appear in the Inspector. This order is fixed -- it follows the order Aperture itself follows when creating a Version image from a Master.
I don't know why I believe this. It is likely something I came across as I was learning Aperture.
In practice, I use the Exposure brick to set the black point and the white point (and use the Recovery slider to finesse the white point setting). I hold down {Command} while adjusting the sliders in order to see the clipping. Some shots I clip; some I don't. Some I use as much Recovery as I need, others I hold back. There is no rule of thumb -- for me it depends on the content of the capture, the final format and use of the image, and artistic considerations.
I then use levels to adjust the brightness (upper triangle-handles) and the distribution of the dynamic range. (Curves works equally well.) Not infrequently, I will end up with more black clipping than I want. I will then go back to the Black Point slider in the Exposure Brick. I always display and use quarter-tone controls as well as the other controls in the Levels Brick.
If I want to independently adjust a color channel, I add another Levels Brick.
My sense of this is that I am in general setting the gross dynamic range using the controls in the Exposure Brick, and setting the distribution within that range using the Levels Brick.
There are many subtleties you can add. This is just meant as a general guide, since you are looking for something usable to get started. Most of the Bricks are easier to understand in use than to describe. But do read the User Manual chapter on any Brick you are using; they are mostly chock full of everything you need to know to get started (for instance, the controls in Shadows and Highlights Brick are not used in the order they appear).
HTH. Cheers.

Multiple Image Uploading Question

Please forgive my ignorance here but I saw the question on multiple image uploading and this is something i have been trying to do for a few days now without any success.
I am using CS3 with ADDT and PHP
I want to allow my users to be able to upload say 5 pictures at a time, each user has multiple photo albums the names of which are stored in mysql table, the image name is stored in a different table with a reference to the album id.
So, I assume that i put an insert record on the page, I followed the usual process used to have a single image upload and thought it would give me or add the extra file field options on the form when telling the multi upload to allow 5 images to be uploaded, not the case. Do i have to create a form on the page first with 5 file fields or am i just missing the plot here.
Sorry if this is just something that seems simple but i just don't seem to be able to get it to work at all. I have no working example to look over and have serach google to see if there are any tutorials for doing this but can't find any at all.
Thank you in advance of any help and guidance given
Regards
Ray

Hi Günter
Thank you for your reply and also for the great tutorial site you run which has helped me quite a lot with several things.
ok, so i am maybe a little confused here, so what is the multiple image uploader for if not for uploading multiple images, and how does it give you the option to select more than one file or is it that you can't use it when inserting the image file into a database?
Please forgive my ignornace again, i can see when i have tried using the multiple image upload thatit puts a text link called upload, what is that for because it doesn't seem to do anything on the page i have tried it on?
Kind Regards
Ray

Yoga 2 13 system image backup question

Hello:
I just bought a Yoga 2 13" ultrabook with 128Gb solid state drive. I tried to make an initial system image backup according to the steps in the manual, but could not do it. The manual instructs me to use the Novo button to invoke a menu with "System Backup" as an option. There is no such option on the menu. I found a post on this forum that directed another person to use the Windows 8.1 control panel system backup option.
I did make a Windows 8.1 system image backup, but now I have no idea of what I should do to perform a restore, should I need one.
Is there a conventional process by which I create a USB bootable disk that can then be used to restore the Windows 8.1 image? Or does the OneKey restore have that as an option?
Bottom line problem is:
I need to make a system image backup that I can use to restore all of my partitions, should I need to do so. And I need the procedure for doing the restore.
Thanks!

Hi Rudy1212,
Welcome to Lenovo Community!
I understand your concern and the OS (Operating System) can only be backed up in a USB Flash Drive. Below is the link to perform the same:

Safari not showing images as Question Marks

Hello Forum,
we have a strange behaviour from a shop website in Safari for Mac and Windows Platform.
It is a site with frames. When i click on the Categorie Nagivation it comes to situations when one of the frames reloads.
After this frame reload the pictures only show as question marks. When i click one of the images it will reload the pressed picture and shows it. The other ones remain as question marks.
The System Layout goes like this: Apache Server takes requests and redirects it to an application shop Server.
Most of the Images are on Apache, the top navigation with the problem comes from the application server.
Does anyone has a clue where to search for this problem?
Firefoy and IE don't have this problem.
Regards
Jannis
P.S. its the newest Version of Safari installed on Mac or on Windows.

Hi Carolyn,
thanks for your answer.
The setting is still checked in Apperances.
I tried to unckeck and check it again, but it woh't solve the problem.
What i think is, that Safari has a problem with our system design or with http headers he interprets in another way than other browsers.
What i found out too is, that there is Java Script. Are there differents how Safari interprets them?
Regards
Jannis

Image Gallery question

I have been asked to help re-create a web site. The existing site is 100% flash. The site owner wants to redo the appearance and navigation and get away from flash.
They want to have the various project galleries re-created without flash but want the behaviors to be the same as they are in the existing flash setup. check the link below.
http://www.ecummingsarchitect.com/FLASH/main.html
Specifically they want the thumbnails to auto scroll when the cursor rolls over the scroll arrow. Also want the roll over effect where - roll over the thumbnail changes it to color and also changes the larger/primary image above.
I have a couple of slideshow generators from Project 7 but they will not quite achieve these effects.
Is this possible with html/css and/or can anyone recomend a third party product or tool I might use to create this sort of gallery?
Additionally they want to re-create the opening animation on the home page of the site. They have made a little 1.7 meg movie in imovie or something that plays a series of stills but with an animated camera move acroos each still like a Ken Burns film. Slow zoom in or zoom out or pan. Also has sound track.
My question, is it "bad" practice to have a .mov or .wmv or some such movie auto play on the home page?
Again, is this possible with html/css and/or can anyone recomend a third party product or tool I might use to create this sort of slideshow with zoom/pan effects and soundtrack?
Thanks in advance for any advice or help with this.

As Martin said, you can do some amazing things with jQuery transitions, animations and fadeIn effects. And jQuery is supported by nearly all web devices.
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/
You can also use Adobe Edge Preview to create animations in HTML5, CSS3 & JavaScript. NOTE: Edge animations are not supported by older browsers (pre-IE9). Before you start, decide who your target audience is.

Finally, for video & audio playback, have a look at Pickle player.

Image resoltion question

I have a basic question about image resolution. I have taken
some pics for a brochure with a digital camera. The pictures are
2800 x 2100 pix. (6.1 MP), 72 DPI.
My printer recommends sending TIFF format at 300 DPI. I can
create a postcard at 300 DPI and add the image, without resampling
the image.
Will that print ok, or do I need to find a digital camera
that will shoot at 300 DPI. I am obviously a novice and I could not
find an answer to my question in the archives.
Thanks.

As a small addition to what Richard said, I think I'll
explain in more
detail while camera ppi (or dpi) is a fake.
From practical point of view, neither camera nor your eye
have resolution
in "inches". Both your eye and your camera have *angular*
resolution, not
*linear*. It may be recalculated to linear only when you are
referring to
particular viewing distance - that is, from a long distance
you only
recongize objects of meter size, and from a hand distance -
of millimeter
size; and they may take the same amount of pixels in your
camera photos.
As a result, there is no such a thing like "best resolution
for print" -
you may print large billboard at much smaller resolution than
fine art
catalog, and both will look the same under appropriate
circumstances - one
from several meters distance, the other being viewed through
a looking
glass. Also, there is no such a thing as "camera resolution"
(unless we
put the real ruler in the scene <g>). There may be
*formal* resolution
setting the camera puts in the image file, or even more
likely some formal
resolution assumption your software makes when it reads the
file without
any resolution setting in it (you know, software don't like
"divide by
zero" things, so it often makes some non-zero assumptions
when it can't
get real figures).
So forget about resolution of camera files. All you need is
enough pixels
to cover the number of inches that you wish, under the print
resolution
you want. As Joe said, you are likely to have more than you
need.

Image quality question on WVC54GCA

The contrast ratio on this camera image seems way too high. i.e. the sunlit areas are too bright and the shadowed areas are too dark. Does everyone notice this on this camera or is it just me?
If there is a way to upload an image to this post... please let me know.
Thanks,
George
