Image export and h264

Problems, problems - export to image creates white sidebar on RHS and cuts off part of the image - export via Elgato Turbo to h264 causes weird scaling issues in the y direction. Not good. How go I go back to 7.3?

Hello Deb,
The presentation slides (movies) I made from Keynote are usually completed in two steps.
1. Export to lossless movie from Keynote.
I usually choose CUSTOM format, and use PNG codec and IMA 4:1 codec for audio, no dimension reduction.
2. use QuickTime Pro to re-export it again.
this time I would change the file size, and use either Sorenson Video 3 or H.264 for video codec, and either QDesign Music 2 or AAC for audio.
As for making movie interactive, I am not expert on this. I would suggest you ask in Keynote section.
I would like to embed a QT movie and sound is QDesign Music a commercial application? I have Livestage Pro, would this accomplish this?
QDesign Music 2 is an audio codec you can choose when you export a movie/audio from QuickTime Pro. (It is licensed, QuickTime Pro users can use it.)
Also, do you know if it is possible to setup a Server so that users who connect thru the internet would be directed to use the QT on the Server rather than their computers?
I guess you are talking about "streaming" QuickTime movies OR movies with Chapters. To stream a QuickTime movie, you will need to have QuickTime Streaming Server (or Darwin Streaming Server, free) installed. To Create Chapters in a movie for external links or chapters, I would suggest you check http://www.apple.com/quicktime/player/tutorials.html
Hope those help.

Jumpy playback from image sequences rendered in Apple Prores and then exported to h264

I will start by saying I have been using FCP since 1.0 and am in no way new to this software, but this issue has me going crazy.
First the Specs:
MacPro 2 x 2.66 Quad cor Intel Xeon
16 gig Ram
OS 10.9.2
FCP 7.0.3 (sorry but I am not a fan of FCP10 at all)
In other words, a beast of a system that has played back everything I have ever built on it for years until now. So now for the issue: I work with an amazing 3D Max builder and we have created a building animation exported from that program into and image sequence ( we have tried JPG, TGA and PNG still all with the same effect). I open Quicktime 7 Pro, build the image sequence, save as .mov, import into FCP and drop it into my 1080p30 Apple Prores (HQ ... we also tried SQ) timelines. The timeline renders perfectly and I can play the video perfectly through my system out of Firewire 800 to my Motu V4HD device which then converts the signal to HDMI to my 55" LED TV. The video and playback is perfect.... until:
If I try to play back the same exact time line into an exported video file, the file will play back with random jumpyness in it. I say random since you can play it back 10 times and it will hiccup during playback at different spots in the video. If you review every frame in the file though using Quicktime 10, 7 or VLC viewer, every frame is perfect. So, it must be the data rate right? Wrong. I have exported now to H264 MP4, M4V, MOV , ect, etc at different data rates from 4mb to 40 mb per second. They all have the same randow jumpyness to it. So it must be my computer right? Nope. I have a Macbook pro that is more powerful than this machine and I rebuild the file using the same method (something I have done a thousand times before) and the exported file does the same thing on that machine. I had my friend do it on his machine... same thing. ERRRR....
We have even tried using After Effects and Premier to the same result. Rendered it straight from Quicktime Pro, same. Rendered it to 720p30, same. Render it to 24fps, same. I had another editor render it using whatever methods he wanted to use... same. Tried Compressor, SAME. Tried Adobe Media Encoder, SAME......We even, god forbid, used a PC running Premier and built the image sequence and rendered to h264 at 30fps, 5mbs.... @#$@#$ SAME!
We just remade the 3D Studio Max export into a 60fps animation since I thought that the individual frames we appearing too far apart and thus causing the jumpyness. That was causing the playback of the upclose objects flying across the screen fast to appear jittery, but not the random playback jumps. The 60fps did smooth out the animation greatly during fast flybys, but the playback jumps are still there in all players, QT, VLC, the web, etc.
I was starting to think this issue is realted to Mavericks, but since the PC did the same thing that is not it either. I have linked a sample of the clip below exported to 720p30, 25mbs... something that is much smaller than the original and should playback smooth very easily on any of my systems.
FYI: I have now opened numerous projects I have edited over the last few years and noticed that all of them are now jumpy, so this isn't just an image sequence issue. While the other projects don't use image sequences and instead are shot footage edited together, there is still the random jump (far less than the image sequence as you will see) but they are now there... ***? I have cleared preferences in FCP which helps for a short period of time, but once exported I get the same glitch.
As I said... I am stumped... ANYONE have ideas for me to try?
Here is a sample file for you all to see and please tell me if anyone does not see the issue after playing it several times in a row.
www.media3lv.com/switch/NORTH-sample-720p30_25mb-sec.zip
One last thing to note... my main goal for these videos is YouTube or Vimeo playback via our company website. I have a few other animations online right now using YouTube and the problem is also showing there. At first I thought it was just my videos, but I have looked at numerous YouTube videos now showing 3D animation and alot of them are jumpy.
www.supernap.com/supernap-building-design.html
www.supernap.com/supernap-tscif-exchange.html
These don't show the issue as bad since the camera fly is much slower, but why is this occuring and is it coming from my source, or is this a known youtube issue? I can program this using out own modules, but YouTube and Vimeo allow for multiple resolutions and a checker script which makes it easier to share over all devices at all quality up to 1080p.
Advice is welcome and appreciated?

I have tried at actual, full screen, using 1080p30 size from the original compressed to 4mbs (something my system can handle without blinking), 720p30, etc. etc. etc. Nothing stops the jumps. Even the activity monitor shows only 5%-15% processing being used by QT and/or FCP.
I plan to pull my old G5 out of the closet, it runs 10.6.8 and is still rock solid for video editing in FCP7. If it plays smooth on that 8 year old system then I know it's Mavericks. I'll try that tonight. It floors me though why the original 1080p30 will playback perfect via FCP and Motu, but once I turn of external monitoring and just try to play it via the preview monitor it is jumpy as **** and then the exported file does the same thing. So strange. I even deleted prefences of FCP and that does help with screen playback initially, but it always gets jumps in it after playing for a while.
I knew I should not have started using Mavericks and I HATE FCP10.

Problem exporting Premiere Pro CS5.5 projects with still photos and h264 video

I'm a longtime Final Cut Pro user and evaluating Premiere Pro for my workplace before making the switch. I have been running into several problems when I try to export raw h264 video from a Canon 5D combined with still images on a Macbook Pro. Either I receive an error in Premiere Pro saying, "Error compiling movie. Unknown error." or Adobe Media Encoder appears to continue exporting (the time elapsed bar continues to move) even though the time remaining stays frozen once it hits a photo it doesn't like. It's not always the same photo.
I've spent several days trying to troubleshoot the issue, including batch resizing all photos to 1920 wide (to match the video settings), and it hasn't work. The sequence is currently set to render in ProRes 422. I've also tried HDV 1080p30 and MPEG-4. I cannot find any consistency with the errors. Occasionally an export will work, but every couple still photos will look like green static. I've also tried batch converting the photos in Photoshop to PNG and GIF without any luck. I'd include my default export settings but I've pretty much tried it all. I'm just trying to figure out what's causing the error since the message is very vague.
Couple other notes:
There's plenty hard drive space available for export
I can export the DSLR video (h264, 1080p30) without still photos no problem
I can edit the same still photos and video in Final Cut with no problem
I have the same problem with auto-save on and off
I tried re-installing production premium, deleting the preference files and cleaning the media cache - no luck. I also tried exporting under a different user account and it wouldn't work.
This is driving absolutely crazy. I'm affraid to use PP on deadline because I don't see any issues until it's time to export. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks Todd. Your questions were actually very helpful. I'm using a Macbook Pro with an Intel Core i7 processor and NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M graphics card. I'm running OS 10.6.8 and have the latest updates installed.
When I disabled the GPU acceleration, I was able to render and export without a problem. The problem only occured when using the GPU acceleration and mixing h264 with still photos. It also affected both rendered previews and the final export. I'm assuming its a support issue with the graphics cards, but it would be great if you had any other ideas. I appreciate your help.

CR Viewer tool bar images are missing; Export and Print are not working

Hi There
I used Crystal report 10.5(VS 2008 base crytal report -- CRRedist2008_x86.msi), i developed ASP.net application using VB.net program(i used .net 3.5). One of the pages in the application is having crystal report viewer, which is calling a crystal report to populate the result. The report is working as expected on development machine (Win Vista). Hence, I moved the application onto Server (Windows Server Web; 32Bit OS and IIS). I installed the CRRedist2008_x86.msi, which added the "aspnet_client" under default website. As my site is a made as an application under default webiste. I tried...
a) By copying the aspnet_client folder into the website folder
b) By adding a virtual directory called "aspnet_client" under my website pointing it into the folder under "default website"
None of the trials are working for me.
When I click on Print or Export buttons (although their images are missing), I get the error sigh on bottom left (status bar) of the browser and the popping up the same giving me below error details

Hello All.
I am excited to let you know that the issue is being resolved.
Here is steps that lead me to resolution and solution..
I installed Fiddler2 and looked into every the debugging details of the transaction while running the report.
Learned that the crystal report is using the aspnet_client foler under "Default website" NOT under the crrent website.
Hence I tried to access the image via http path from local machine
http://myserver/aspnet_client/system_web/2_0_50727/CrystalReportWebFormViewer4/images/toolbar/export.gif.
(Notice, "mysite" folder is been removed)
I was expecting to see the gif on my browsers' body. It gave me an error.
Investigated further more on the error and found that the "Managed Pipe Line" of the respective application pool is to be changed to "Classic" instead of "Integrated"
changed it .. Boom...
Tool bar is showing up with proper images and as well the "Export" and "Print" functions are working as expected..
Hope this helps to those in the same situation.
Again.. this is one of many many solutions on this issues.
Thank You

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

Exporting photos for UHDTV or Native 4K TV, what are the best settings ? (File: Quality File: Color Space, Image Sizing and resolution) Or in other words; How can I get the smallest files but keep good quality for display on new UHDTV

You're welcome, and thank you for the reply.
2) Yesterday I made the subclips with the In-Out Points and Command-U, the benefit is that I've seen the clip before naming it. Now I'm using markers, it's benefit is that I can write comment and (the later) clip name at once, the drawback is that I have to view to the next shot's beginning before knowing what the shot contains.
But now I found out that I can reconnect my clips independently to the format I converted the master clip to. I reconnected the media to the original AVI file and it worked, too! The more I work with, the more I'm sold on it... - although it doesn't seem to be able to read and use the date information within the DV AVI.
1) Ok, I tried something similar within FCE. Just worked, but the file size still remains. Which codec settings should I use? Is the export to DV in MOV with a quality of 75% acceptable for both file size and quality? Or would be encoding as H.264 with best quality an option for archiving, knowing that I have to convert it back to DV if I (maybe) wan't to use it for editing later? Or anything else?
Thank's in advance again,
André

Still images exported to DVD look deinterlaced and flicker on TV monitor

Hi,
I have tried tried almost everything and I still have issues with the still images exported to DVD as sequencefrom FCP 7.0 by using Compressor are deinterlaced and flicker on TV monitor. Please help remove the annoying flicker.
My FCP Timeline Sequence settings match the image resolution:
Frame Size: 1024 x 682 (double of 720 x 480 standard DVD res)
Pixel Aspect Ratio: Square
Field Dominance: None
Compressor: Photo JPG (also tried, DVCPRO-NTSC)
I cropped the original images in Photoshop to the 1024 x 682 and saved as tiffs. They still look deinterlaced in FCP timeline and exported to DVD on my iMac computer monitor.
Final output of DVD will be on this monitor:
Specifications:
Ikegami
Model: VCM-2101
Resolution: 450 TV Lines (Horizontal)
Should I crop the images to 450 horizontal pixels or the double of that 900?
How can I match the sequence or the images settings to avoid the flicker and deinterlaced look on that monitor? I am not able to test the image by having the monitor next to computer.
Compressor:
I used custom DVD settings in Compressor for 90 min best quality DVD. Tried the Porgressive and "Same as Source" in Output field.
In "Crop to" and "Padding" I set for preserve source aspect ratio and letterbox area of source.
I followed the advices from below and I still did not resolve the problem. Please is there anythign else I can try?
Thanks a lot..
Re: Poor Quality Stills
Dec 19, 2006 4:08 PM (in response to Steve Braker)
Things to try (In increasing order of image degradation)
- (in FCP) field order>none
- (in FCP or Photoshop) reduce whites by 10% - reduces overly bright areas
- (in FCP) flicker filter - minimum
- (in Photoshop) motion blur>vertical> .2 - .5 pixels - blurs vertically only
- (In FCP or Photoshop) Gaussian blur> .2 - .5 pixels -blurs both horizontally as well as vertically
- (in FCP or Photoshop) deinterlace - throws away half the image and is generally not appropriate on scanned images

Dear Russ,
Thank you very much. Yes, there is something else in the sequence, old documentary, 768 x 570 (no field dominance, 25fps, Apple ProRes 422) but the images are more imporant.
make a progressive sequence with square pixels. (I am partial to 720P, 1080 should work – or 540). Choose Pro Res 422
Do you mean that I should make a sequence in FCP with these settings? If yes, how can I set a "progressive" sequence? I dont see a setting for output field in FCP sequence settings, lnly in customizing Compressor output DVD format.
Also: "720P, 1080 should work – or 540" are you talking about Frame size? If so, to set in Compressor or in FCP?
If you have interlaced material, then de-interlace before you bring it in. If you don't have interlaced clips, don't de-interlace.
The images are not interlaced after I crop them, apply motion blur filter in Photoshop but look interlaced in FCP timeline after I import them and even to the same as photos sequence in FCP timeline.
Please help and thank you for your comments.

How to do frame-by-frame editing in iMovie 08 and export in H264?

I wish to edit some videos and then export them in H264 so I can use them on a website.
I have tried to edit with iMovie 08 but can only edit second-by-second. I want to edit frame-by-frame ie to the millisecond. And it appears that iMovie 08 does not export in H264.
I have looked at iMovie 11 which has a Precision Editor which would work to edit as I want but for that I would have to upgrade from Leopard to Snow Leopard which I don't want. It would export H264.
I also have QuickTime Player 7 Pro but that too seems to edit only by the second not by the frame; it does however seem to produce H264
How can I edit these videos precisely and produce H264? Is there another application which would work better (and doesn't cost a fortune).
Thanks for any ideas

iMovie exports in h.264 by default. All the presets are h.264 (except Tiny).
If you need to adjust the h.264 in some way, then SHARE.EXPORT USING QUICKTIME.
To edit to the nearest frame, Go to iMovie/Preferences and select Display Time Codes.

Am a bit confused by what you say. iMovie and QT 7 Pro are both "frame" level editors. However, some forms of editing are, by their very nature, applied over a range of frames which may be a part of your problem. In addition, since "normal" movies have frames which are spaced apart in the 16 to 42 ms range, your requirement to be able to edit to the nearest millisecond would seem unreasonable and would probably be unsupported for playback purposes without skipping 90+ percent of the frames on most platforms.
And it appears that iMovie 08 does not export in H264.
All of the "Share" and/or "Export" options (except Final Cut XML...) either default to H.264 or allow export to H.264 (or X264 if installed) video compression.
How can I edit these videos precisely and produce H264? Is there another application which would work better (and doesn't cost a fortune).
Difficult to say since you have not given any indication as to what you mean by "editing" here. You could, for instance, edit normal movie clips in a normal manner and then use an application like the JES Deinterlacer to change the playback time reference to achieve an effective 1 millisecond/frame playback rate you seem to want to target even though your platform cannot play every frame during playback.

Ernie-
Thanks for responding...but still have a oroblem. Here's what I'm doing:
In Aperture I choose a "version" that has been Adjusted (croped, etc.).
- Go to "File"...'Export"..."Version"
- In next window for "Export preset" I choose "JPEG-Fit within 1024x1024"
- Click on "Export version"
The exported version then showes up in "Finder" under "Pictures"
- Next I open "Mail" (version 5.2)
- Adderss email to friends in England.
- Click on attachment (paper clip)
- Choose my "version" from "pictures"
- Back in Mail, click on "Format"..."Make Plain Text"
- Send
My friends receive it as "bmp", not JPEG, with no Metadata.
If I do the same procedure but under "File" choose "Export Master", they receive it as JPEG and also the Metadata.....BUT, of course, no Adjustments, such as croping, that were made to the "Version".
What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to save the "Version" as a "Master" and then send it as a "Master"?
Thanks,
Nelson

Export and then import those images in one step?

I'm slightly annoyed that every time I want to use the export function to create jpeg versions of images, I then have to do the extra step of importing those jpegs into my catalog. Is there some way to do this in one step?
If I need .tiff's of .psd's, I just use the edit in photoshop function, because that has the option to automatically stack with original, but there is no option that I can find for other formats.
Thanks

Right, then until 2.0 comes out, I'll try the watched folder idea that John suggests. Yea, I was talking about raw files, but also psds or really any "digital neg".
As for the workflow import-process-export, and the final product not needing to be re-imported because it theoretically needs no more processing, this would be fine if one used lightroom to organize digital negs and bridge to organize absolutely everything, including final versions for various media, but I'm glad that adobe has realized that at least some of us use are trying to use lightroom without opening bridge a lot of the time. Although I haven't even tried using bridge that much, maybe there are advantages over lightroom as a central depository.

Rotation of images imported and exported from Aperture

Hi all,
Recently whilst on Holiday I used my iPad as a storage for the camera via the camera kit. When I got home I synced the iPad with the Mac to get the images into iPhoto, and then imported them into Aperture.
This is where the first problem occurred. A large number of the portrait orientated images came into Aperture upside down ????
So I selected and rotated all the incorrect ones in Aperture then carried on to sort and process them. Mostly removing the "raw, iphoto image" keywords and some cropping and tinting etc.
Then I went to iTunes and did a sync of the photos in Aperture back to the iPad (I had wiped them from the iPad after the import into iPhoto).
Again a large number of the images rotated themselves so that now they are upside down on the iPad.
It would appear that either the import or sync to iPad, or both has got something wrong.
Does anyone have any idea what to do? The images look correct now in Aperture, but are incorrect on the iPad.
Grrr!

Not easy to explain as i don't understand fully the details of what goes on myself, but the basics. Most cameras sense rotation, but only add a marker to tell the computer how to display the image, Some programmes see this, some don't, so you then rotate in iPhoto, then move to Aperture, and the programme now may see multiple instructions on how to display the image. Yours and the cameras. I have had this kind of problem in the past and it is very frustrating.
The Masters only have one set of information or none on older cameras. If you use the masters to put in to Aperture then do your edits you should not have this problem. If you correct this by exporting and re importing the jpeg you will loose image quality.

Exporting image coordinates and size

I'd like to be able to export image position and percentage size for all pictures in a document (the purpose is to import this information into a database to facilitate autocreation of the douments later on), I've done this before for Quark files by processing the report files but InDesign doesn't have this information. I'm working with InDesign CS5 on OSX and have very little experience of AppleScript - I've had quite a good browse around but to no avail, any help would be greatly appreciated.

CSS and image export problems

Hi
Is the CSS and image export supposed to output anything
legible. Right now, it produces garbage that looks nothing like my
project. Images are distorted. Nothing lines up correctly. Has
anyone else had similar problems?
Why does the feature only support creating a single page? Is
there any way to get it to export all pages?
Why does the feature ignore behaviors? The HTML and image
export supports behaviors so why can't the CSS and image export? Is
there any way to get it to support behaviors?
Thanks

Problem fixed by rebooting!

Error when exporting and importing TS

Hi I am running SCCM 2012 SP1 and am trying to export a Task Sequence including with the Windows 7 wim, the boot wim, some applications and drivers. When I exported the TS I selected to export dependencies and content.
I have setup dev SCCM environment (same spec as production) and am trying to import the .zip that was created when I completed the export. When doing the import I am getting the below error on both the Windows 7 wim and the boot wim :
Error Imported Operating System Image (1):
Create new Windows 7 Enterprise x64
Generic failure
instance of SMS_ExtendedStatus
Description = "Failed to get the image property from the source WIM file due
to error 80070003".

StatusCode = 2147749889;
The applications and drivers have been imported into the Dev SCCM server however I cannot find the actual content so I am not sure this has worked properly. I am wondering if I would be better off using the Migration wizard to take the TS and
content across. Would appreciate any advice on either a) how to fix the issues with the importing of the TS or b) whether I should just be using the migration wizard.
Thanks

The applications and drivers have been imported into the Dev SCCM server however I cannot find the actual content so I am not sure this has worked properly.
When you exported did you choose to "Export all content for selected task sequence and dependencies".
80070003 = The system cannot find the path specified.

Get Rid of the Text-as-Image Export

For the life of me I can't figure out why Adobe would add such an irritating feature and not allow it to be toggled.
Come on Adobe developers, exercise some intelligence here.
I am aware there are potential licensing issues but let's review:
You cannot use system fonts that are not considered 'web safe' without them exporting as image, even though 99% of Windows users will have them and Mac users will have no trouble with them being substituted.
It makes manual CSS font stacks useless since Muse abandons this possibility when it goes the image route.
There are plenty of TypeKit fonts available through Creative Cloud that are accessible when synced, yet many of them are not in Muse's library so will also force image export. If it synced through CC and is licensed for web use then there are no licensing issues. Export as text and let the user drop in their TypeKit code.
Many users will use Google/Typekit web fonts perfectly fine but downloading and self-hosting the font files just to use them in Muse is a waste of time and not necessarily possible.
The workaround is to use a completely different font, thus upsetting the page layout, just so that it exports as text and a simple find and replace can be used to change font-family.
I can't even use Open Sans without it exporting as an image. Seriously? Likely the most widespread web font in existence and you force an image export. That's just bad.
Please get rid of this... allow users to turn image exports off and handle font styling ourselves or remove it entirely.
It was fine beforehand when you could use any font installed locally, including CC synced Typekit fonts, with only the Muse fonts triggering placing of a Muse Typekit code.
This resulted in users having to intervene post-export to have web fonts render properly if they weren't available through Muse which was perfectly reasonable.

Feature Requests
1. Provide access to the complete Typekit font offering.
2. Provide the ability to define and use your own font fallback stacks (aka Web Safe font definitions)
Possible Misconceptions
1. Open Sans isn't readily available as a Web Font in Muse
2. We've changed something in the generated code that makes it more difficult to manually edit the output.
You're correct. The paid Typekit library is not currently easily available from within Muse. We continue to lobby the Typekit team for changes required to enable paid Typekit in a seamless UI within Muse, but thus far we have yet to reach the top of their development team's priority list.
If you're familiar with font stacks you're aware there are very few truly "web safe" fonts. In most cases using a "web safe" font means settling for one of a handful of fonts depending on the OS or device being used to view your site. That font variation means variations in the line breaks within text frames and thus changes to text frame heights which are likely to result in changes to the overall layout of your pages. In most cases a Web Font is a much better choice if the visual fidelity of your design is an important part of your site. It's unlikely Muse will provide the ability to define arbitrary font stacks. Given the target market of Muse and our small development team, future additional font support will likely continue to be in the area of Web Fonts.
If you select "Add Web Fonts" in the Web Fonts section of the Fonts menu you can browser a library of 500+ font families that are provided for free and hosted on Adobe's Typekit service. This set of free fonts is marketed as "Edge Web Fonts." The Edge Web Fonts offering started as the set of public domain fonts hosted by Google with a small number removed due to quality issues and a small number added from the set of fonts Adobe wholly owns. The majority of the ~650 web fonts now hosted by Google are part of the 500+ web fonts readily available within Muse.
Open Sans is one of the font families in the Edge Web Fonts library. Go to "Add Web Fonts" in the Fonts menu, type "open" in the search field of the Web Fonts dialog, click on Open Sans and it will be added to the Web Fonts section of your Muse Font menu for easy future use. On your site the font will be provided via Typekit without any page view limits or requirement to be a Creative Cloud subscriber.
To my knowledge there have not been any changes in Muse output that should impact your ability to use a Web Safe font in Design view, then alter the generated code to replace that font with a font from some other source (i.e. paid Typekit, Fonts.com hosting, etc.). It's never been possible to use a System Font in Muse and then alter the output code to replace the font, since the output for a text frame that uses a System Font has always been an image.
Thank you for taking the time to voice your opinions and provide feature requests.
