Imovie 09 stalling out while editing

Hi guys, My imovie is stalling for up to 15 seconds while I'm editing. Usually at an edit point, it will freeze frame and skip a section, and pick up many seconds later. I do not have it over loaded with projects or layers, sound effects, etc, it will just stall out and trip me up. Seems random. help.

It sounds like your memory is full. the first thing to try would be restarting your Mac.
How much memory is installed? (Never mind, looks like 2GB from your signature)

  • Scrubbing audio cuts out while editing iMovie project

    Hello,
    I put all of the clips, nearly an hour, in the project, and am editing just by deleting what I don't want. I keep losing audio while scrubbing. Would having less video in the project window fix that? It came back just now by restarting iMovie, but cut out again.
    Thank you

    Hi
    and welcome to forum
    *No audio on DVD disc.*
    Most common origin.
    1 Imported audio from iTunes.
    • In iTunes copy out as an audio-CD .aiff
    • Use this in Your movie project
    2 Strange audio formats like .mp3, .avi etc.
    • Change them to .aiff. Use an audio editor like Audacity (free)
    3 Main audio is set to off in System Preferences - Does this by it self - Don’t know why
    Cheque Audio-Out resp. Audio-In
    4. Ed Hanna
    Had the same problem; some Googling around gave me a kludgy, but effective fix
    Downgrade Perian from recent versions back to version 1.0.
    That worked for me, and so far I haven't encountered any deficiencies—except it takes more advanced versions of Perian to enable QuickTime to handle subtitles in .srt format—that I have noticed.
    5. GarageBand fix.
    In this set audio to 44.1 kHz (Klaus1 suggestion)
    (if this don’t work try 48 kHz - me guessing)
    Before burning the DVD.
    • Do a DiskImage (File menu and down)
    • Double click on the .img file
    • Test it with Apple DVD-player
    If it’s OK then make Your DVD.
    Burn at x1 speed.... (or x4)
    • In iDVD 08 - or - 09
    • Burn from DiskImage with Apple Disk Util tool
    • OR burn with Roxio Toast™ if You got it

  • IMovie clips freezing/stuttering while editing in playback & after exporting to Quicktime

    I've been working with iMovie since 2003 and if its not one thing, its always another. This particular problem is a new one, and I can't seem to find the get around. Any advice would be appreciated!
    Working on a wedding video (large event size but only 6-8 minute project) and the clips are freezing/stuttering in the project and viewer windows when I try to play them back. Each time it freezes, I get the spinning wheel for 5-10 seconds before I can place my marker and try again. Endless cycle. This happened in a few other projects, but those I was able to edit out the freezing clips OR found that exporting to Quicktime seemed to smooth out the glitches, just made editing a pain.
    Not this time. Even after exporting to Quicktime, there are still numerous glitches in my quicktime movies (using default and numerous other settings).
    Here are the things I've tried: reinstalling my iLife 09 software, running all the updates, clearing off my hard drive (to give me 70+GB of space), detaching my external hard drive and only using internal memory, restarting, and deleting the plists. No luck, still have these glitches.
    Could this be an issue with audio or using the stabilization option (used that for the first time)?

    .. 90min movie .. share to iDVD .. iMovie would freeze and be unresponsive.. .exporting to QuickTime .. 13 hours .. random stills .. iMovie will freeze ..
    Would putting all of the clips and the project on an external hard drive help? Would updating to OS 10.5.8 help exporting to QuickTime?
    plus your profile, MacBook, indicates to me, your internal harddrive is full.
    check with DiskUtility, how many partitions your internal drive has.
    check, how much free disk space internal you offer your apps.
    imho, extHDD is a MUST when editing video..
    .. is there any way to move our already edited clips from iM09 to iM06?
    use 'Export using Quicktime', choose dv-stream (for SD content) or AppleIntermediate (for HD content) - these are the only codecs, iMHD6 reads..
    this export consolidate the project => it comes into iMHD6 as a single solid file, e.g. no more editing of titles, which are now 'burned into film'.
    _consider to create a special 'transfer'-version of your project:_
    in Project Browser, select project, ctrl-click, 'duplicate', and create a pre-production version (no titles, no music, additional material for further editing, longer clips to add transitions in iMHD6.. ect)

  • Imovie freezes up constantly while editing

    When I start editing in imovie the little rainbow circle comes on and I have to force quit and restart.

    iM is meant for camcorders as source.-
    what device is in use (maker/model)?
    if you do NOT use regular sources, you have to convert your stuff before usage in iM with correct settings.-

  • Play through apple tv while editing? imovie using apple tv as live video monitor

    HI. I have imovie HD running on my macbook pro and would like to play back the video i am editing directly through apple tv - while editing - without having to render first - . i know there would be latency - but that would be fine.... is there anyway to do this?????
    nic

    Hi
    Are You using iMovie HD6 and want a live full screen video playback during editing ?
    If so - that's what I've done all the time since iMovie 1.
    BUT - to get this I use either
    • a miniDV tape Camera with DV-in - or
    • an A/D-box as Canopus ADVC-300
    Then in iMovie I set - Playback trough Camera (in iM preferences)
    Camera/A/D-box connected via FireWire
    To Camera or A/D-box I've connected a reference monitor - but any standard TV will do
    A function lost in iMovie'08 to 11 - but also fully functional in FinalCut Express and Pro (How it is in FinalCut Pro X - I DO NOT KNOW - and doubt sincerely - as it feels much more like iMovie X Pro)

  • While editing photos in Aperture, I'm trying to make an "auto" adjustment to the exposure but the button is grayed out and consequently doesn't perform any function, please help! Thank you, Mike

    While editing photos in Aperture, I trying to make an "auto" adjustment to the exposure,
    but the "auto" button is grayed out and will not allow any auto function to take place.
    Please help!
    Thank you,
    Mike

    Mike, are you working with raw images?
    For some raw images auto exposure is not available, have a look at this manual page:
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=18%26se ction=9%26tasks=true
    Note: Automatic exposure adjustment is available for Aperture-supported RAW images only. If you want to adjust the exposure of another file type, such as JPEG or TIFF, see Working with the Exposure Controls. For a list of supported RAW file types, go to the Apple website at http://www.apple.com/aperture/specs.

    postfix and amavis might be out of sync.
    open terminal
    tail -f /var/log/mail.log
    watch your log, postfix will report what the trouble is, don't snip the log,
    serveradmin stop mail
    postqueue -p
    postsuper -r ALL
    serveradmn start mail
    watch your log. also make sure your firewall is not doing anything goofey with 127.0.0.1
    if the server has been running for a log time,.. some programs leak. eventually you have to kick services at least.

  • Imovie 08 keeps quitting during editing

    While editing imovie, the program occasionally freezes and then quits with message stating that imovie has quitted unexpectedly. I have to relaunch the program to continue working. Any ideas as to the cause and any solutions are appreciated.

    Hi
    May be my old list can be of help.
    *Not knowing the origin to Your problem - General approach when in trouble is as follows.*
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk if it is less than 10Gb should rather have 25Gb
    • Delete iMovie pref file - or rather start a new user/account - log into this and re-try
    iMovie pref file resides.
    Mac Hard Disk (start-up HD)/Users/"Your account"/Library/Preferences
    and is named. *com.apple.iMovie.plist *
    While iMovie is NOT RUNNING - move this file out to desk-top.
    Now restart iMovie.
    • Hard disk is untidy. Repair Permissions, Repair Hard disk (Apple Disc Util tool)
    • Garageband-fix. Start it, Play a note and Close it. Re-try (Corrects an audio problem that hinders iMovie)
    • Screen must be set to Million-colors
    • Third party plug-ins that doesn't work OK (not relevant for iMovie’08 or 09)
    iMovie updated ?
    QuickTime updated ?
    Mac OS version ?
    • Program miss-match. iMovie 5.0.2, up to Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK
    • Program miss-match. iMovie 6.0.3 or 6.0.4, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    • Program miss-match. iMovie’08 v. 7.0.1, Mac OS X.4.11 AND QuickTime 7.4.1 - is OK (might work under Leopard)
    From LKN 1935. (in this case = iMovie HD (5), I tried it all, but nothing worked.
    Your answer (above) has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that
    there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled
    iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos)
    to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before.

    I run "Cache Out X", clear out all caches and restarts the Mac.

  • Jerky playback, sluggish operations while editing

    I've never had any troubles with video until now. I'm getting jerky playback on my machine, where under the previous iMovie I didn't. The playback display will freeze and skip, while the vertical red place marker pauses and jumps forward. The video doesn't have sound at this point, so I don't know if sound is skipping. I'm running on a 30" Cinema display with iMovie filling the screen.
    When I take actions, such as clicking on a clip, there's a slight pause before the action happens. Scrolling through video to find the right frame to split on is very sluggish.
    The type of video that I'm editing are screen movies created using Snapz Pro X (http://www.ambrosiasw.com/utilities/snapzprox/) at 30fps, saved as MP4's highest quality. Yes, it's a lot more space, but I like to preserve as much quality as possible through the editing process.
    Activity Monitor shows that I have 266MB of RAM free, so I don't believe I'm running into swapping problems. At the suggestion of an Apple Store employee, I had an authorized Apple repair place upgrade the hard drive (to 7200RPM; weeee!) a year ago since they don't do after-market upgrades.
    I've used iDefrag to defrag the filesystem. I'm maxed out on RAM (2GB; first generation MBP).
    What types of things should I be looking for to get smooth playback while editing?

    I doubt if any card works well with CS5.
    It's best to have an Adobe PC without any video signal card.
    1. Use a capture/playout PC to capture and view the images, preferably also without using any Adobe software.
    2. Then do your stuff on the Adobe PC.
    3. Transfer the mixdown of the video to your capture/playout PC, check the field order and print to tape (without Adobe) or deliver the file.
    For now, Matrox MXO2 is also unusable with CS5. Boris FX makes things even worse.
    My PC is extremely powerfull, so that can't be it, but it's very unstable.
    Manufacturers of cards and Adobe don't work hard enough to combine their products and they just blame eachother.
    It used to be quite nice semi-pro stuff for editing but forget that with any video hardware for the time being; it dropped to amateur level.
    I'm done trying to fix it or waiting for solutions; I just issue warnings for other users and buyers now.

  • Users locked out of editing Expense Reports

    Hi There,
    Users of the system are reporting that they are frequently unable to edit their expense reports, as the system incorrectly believes that they are attempting to edit reports in multiple sessions.
    A general error is occurring in which the user will be editing an expense report and will perform an action such as closing the browser, closing a browser window/tab or even simply exiting an expense report while using the application.
    After returning to the report, an error message appears saying that they are editing the expense report even though they only have one session open.
    This would suggest that upon performing such an action, the original session becomes stuck while editing the report, resulting in users having to wait long periods of time before this stuck session is automatically closed.
    Is this a commonly known problem, and is there any way that this can be fixed?
    Thanks,
    Tom Wright

    Tom,
    It's one of the biggest pains of the system! Requests have been submitted to SAP numerous times to stop locking people out of editing their reports for silly reasons that you mention. I am not sure if they have any intention of improving it.
    There is a trick to unlocking the report for editing though.
    - log off the system
    - attempt to log back on with the wrong password
    - then log back on with the correct one
    This action has worked 100% of the time in unlocking a report for edit.
    Best of luck,  Britt

  • Default behaviour of the Escape key while editing a cell in JTable??

    Hi all,
    i have a Jtable which get its data from an own model object which extends DefaultTableModel.
    If i overwrite the isCellEditable(row, col) method within the tablemodel object and set a specific column to editable, then i notice while editing a cell in that column that the default behaviour of the Escape key is that independet from what you have entered before in to the cell the editing stops and the cell gets the value it had before editing.
    This is the case for me even if i apply a custom editor to a column (one that extends DefaultCellEditor). It is just a JTextField that limits the number of digits a user can enter. Everything works fine. If the user edits the cell and presses ENTER or the "down arrow key" i can check what he has entered with the help of the getCellEditorValue() method. But if the user hits the ESC key after editing a cell this method is not invoked!!!
    My question is :
    is there any way to detect that the user cancels editing with the ESC-key.
    this is very important for me because if the user goes editing the cell i lock the related record in the database, if i cannot detect this it is locked till the application terminates.
    Thanks for any help in advance

    I try override the JTable editingCanceled() ==> does not work.
    I try the addCellEditorListener( CellEditorListener l ) ==> does not work.
    Finally, I try the addKeyListener ==> it works.
    Here is a quick demo. program:
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.event.*;
    import javax.swing.table.*;
    public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args){
    JFrame f = new JFrame();
    String[] colName = {"a", "b"};
    String[][] rowData = {{"1", "2"}, {"3", "4"}};
    JTable table = new JTable(rowData, colName);
    JTextField t = new JTextField(10);
    t.setBackground(Color.red);
    t.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
    public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
    if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE) {
    // do what ever you want ex. un-lock table
    System.out.println("ESCAPE");
    DefaultCellEditor editor = new DefaultCellEditor(t);
    TableColumnModel colModel = table.getColumnModel();
    for (int i = colModel.getColumnCount()-1; i >= 0; i--) {
    colModel.getColumn(i).setCellEditor(editor);
    f.setContentPane(new JScrollPane(table));
    f.pack();
    f.setVisible(true);

  • Javax.transaction.SystemException: Timed out while in 'Logging' state!!!!

    Hello, we have an OracleWeblogic 10.3.2 running on a Solaris OS.
    In this AppServer we have a FullStack J2EE Application executing distributed transactions that involve 3 manageable resources:
    TxDatasource (EJB),
    NonTxDatasource with enableTwoPhaseCommit and
    JMS
    Some of the transactions are timing out while in 'Logging' state and I just cant figure out what the root cause is. As a defensive action I lowered the JTA Timeout seconds because I noticed the 'Logging' phase was taking too long and then timing out. Idea here was not to have too many threads hanging in Logging state and therefore use the JTA Timeout to overcome this problem and minimize impact.
    Below, I'm posting a few exceptions thrown in applicaiton log. Any help is very appreciated.

    Hello, we have an OracleWeblogic 10.3.2 running on a Solaris OS.
    In this AppServer we have a FullStack J2EE Application executing distributed transactions that involve 3 manageable resources:
    TxDatasource (EJB),
    NonTxDatasource with enableTwoPhaseCommit and
    JMS
    Some of the transactions are timing out while in 'Logging' state and I just cant figure out what the root cause is. As a defensive action I lowered the JTA Timeout seconds because I noticed the 'Logging' phase was taking too long and then timing out. Idea here was not to have too many threads hanging in Logging state and therefore use the JTA Timeout to overcome this problem and minimize impact.
    Below, I'm posting a few exceptions thrown in applicaiton log. Any help is very appreciated.

  • External TV Monitor use while editing HDV

    I would like to use an external TV monitor to mirror my timeline while editing in HDV and I understand from reading past posts that I cannot do that without a
    capture card such as the Blackmagic Decklink HD Pro (dual link) PCI-X. I am willing to purchase this card if it will work with my setup and JVC BR-HD50 deck. Is anyone out there working with this card and deck? I will appreciate any info that anyone can give me.
    G5, Dual 2.0 Processors with PCI-X- FCP 5.0.4 - Toshiba HDTV 20 inch monitor
    JVC HDV BR-HD50 Deck

    You'd still capture via FireWire, but monitor externally using the capture card in the scenario you describe to work in HDV... It would also allow you to control the deck via it's RS-422 (better control than via FW) Also, with the right converters you could upconvert the HDV to uncompressed HD which works quite nicely if you have a fast enough array attached for this.
    However there is a less expensive solution... check out http://www.matrox.com and look at the very soon to be released MXO product. I saw this in a pre release at NAB this year, and it looks like a really great product, and timely to say the least. Maybe will help Matrox come into the world of FCP again... and sort of live down the old RTMac debacle. But use's Apple's second port on your graphics card to convert the cinema desktop option in FCP to be Standard def or High def uncompressed to use with your monitor. All this in real time... without any latency that I could see.
    My next article for the COW magazine is going to discuss the HDV workflow with FCP in fact, and discuss pros and cons of all the different solutions for editing and for monitoring/ upconversion /down conversion/ intermediate codec use etc... all of it...

  • Performance while editing

    I haven't had any performance problems with FCP X up until today.  All of a sudden the cursor started moving jerkily nad I get a messge that my hard drive may not be fast enough.  I have two external hard drives, both Firewire, and one of them was getting pretty full so I archived most of the projects that were on there and freed up lots of space.  Stilll got the jerky action and the warning.
    I decided to swiitch to the other Firewire drive where I had a copy of my project and got the same reaction: jerky movement of the cursor and the warning.  This convinced me it was not the fullness of the drive or the drive itself that was causing the problem.
    I have a 27in iMac purched mid 2011, running Lion 10.7.3, with 8 GB Ram and a 250 GB Flash drive for the system, so it's not the age of the computer or it's capacity.  Do you think it could be trouble with some system controller or other operating system software/hardware?

    1 --- DONT display Video Thumbs on the timeline nor wave forms.
    2 --- Zoom out Max on timeline. Before hitting play. The more you are zoomed in, the worse the performance
    3 --- Make sure you only have a few timelines(Projects) open at once. (Dont ask me how to close them once the have been opened, I DONT know and neither does the manual. Quit FCP X to close out of all timelines.
    4) Use Proxy Files
    5) Run ONLY FCP X on the Mac while editing
    6) Kill Spotlight on Video Disk
    7) Kill File Sharing and Internet Access AND BLUETOOTH (Latter is a killer)
    8) I know it *****... But reboot the Mac every 30 Minutes. Only thing that helps.
    9) IF you display is larger than 24Inchs.. DONT make the app window as larger as the display is capable of.
    The bigger the window the worse the performance.
    I am on a 30 Inch Cinema Display and it is a horror ;-)
    Still FCP X is about the most amazing piece of software I have ever encountered !!!
