IMovie "finalized" but audio is different than project view - Why?

I have just "finalized" my iMovie Project. I am happy with the sound levels and audio ducking in project view. Now after I have finalized the project the audio levels are too loud and ducking is not recognized when I view it full screen. But when I go back to review the project and play it back in project mode it sounds fine. What am I doing wrong?

Hey, have you found a solution to this?

Photo rotaion in organize view different than edit view & slideshow

Photo rotaion in organize view different than edit view & slideshow. The fact that the power supply to the computer was accidentally disconnected while I was working in iPhoto no doubt was the cause of this phenom.
Any suggestions as to how to re-sync the rotations back up?

Thanks for the tip. I wasn't aware of the use of theses two keys simultaneously. It occured to me after this post to just trash the whole library which I had just created for this particular group of photos and re-import the photos to a newly re-created library. I still had the camara connected so as it turned out it was fairly easy. Now that I think about it, if this hadn't been a newly created library just for this group of photos it wouldn't have worked so simply, so I guess I discovered another benifit for having multiple libraries.
I'm glad you recomended the apple/alt key combo though as this knowledge no-doubt will come in handy at some time.

Video lost in iMovie Event but audio retained after upgrade

As a result of upgrading from iMovie '09 to '11, a video I had as an event now shows only as "green screen" video. Audio is still intact, however. But video is gone - literally just a green screen.
When I go into Finder and view the file, I can see both video and audio in the little preview window. I've tried ripping the video again using Handbrake and re-importing it, but still the same thing: green screen with audio.
Any suggestions?

Handbrake converts to MPEG formats, which are best avoided in production because of the way the media is encoded. They're great for delivery, which is what Handbrake is designed to do, convert media into delivery formats for iPhones, iPods, AppleTV.

AME Exported Videos show transparency differently than when viewed in Premiere Pro!

This is kind of hard to explain but basically AME does not seem to treat 99% opaque as 99%...instead the exported file looks more like 90-95% opaque. If you have 2 clips (contrasting clips are easier to notice) on top of each other in Premiere and the top clip is at 99% opaque and the clip beneath it is at 100%, in Premiere you can hardly see the bottom clip, if at all. At 99%, that's how it should be. Just barely peeking through the top clip...
BUT...
If you export that clip using AME, the resulting clip will look completely different and it looks more like you had the top clip set at 90-95%. The lower clip is MUCH more visible. There is not "barely peeking through" like you see on Premiere. It appears that AME does not handle transparency well. For example if you cross dissolve two clips. It looks fine in Premiere but export it out to Bluray/DVD, etc. and all of a sudden, sometimes the beginnings and ends of the clip abruptly clip on or off as they fade into the clip. Again, it's like they go from 5% to 95% but miss out on the subtle start of 1-5% and the subtle ending of 95-99%.
There is a thread about this in the Premiere section but I figured I'd toss it here since it seems Premiere handles/shows the transparency perfectly, but the issue arises when it's exported. To really define the point see the following clip that another user posted in that thread I just mentioned. Notice how the cross dissolves abruptly start and end sometimes. I noticed this in my exported videos too because I use LOTS of cross dissolves. It's easier to notice on more contrasted clips, but I think this illustrates the issue really well.
https://vimeo.com/14536285
Again, I just edited a project that had 2 clips stacked on top of each other and I accidentally had the top clip at 99%. I didn't even notice it in Premiere. You really cannot see the bottom layer peeking through...well, barely. But it's really subtle which makes sense because the top layer is at 99%. But on my exported Bluray/DVD...holy cow, it's VERY noticable! Almost as if the top clip were at 90%, not 99 (no exaggeration).
I don't see a BUG Report for Adobe Media Encoder so I submitted a bug report in Premiere Pro.
Can any one (staff preferably) address this issue please?

Thanks for the response Todd. Is there a way to get around this GPU vs. CPU thing you mentioned? If not, is there a way to export from Premiere (to DVD/Bluray/Vimeo H.264) without using Adobe Media Encoder or export somehow so that dissolves and opacity changes are handled the same way that Premiere handles them so that the exported video doesn't look suddenly different? (I'm on a 2011 iMac with 16gb RAM and the AMD Radeon 6970M Graphics Processor) Basically, am I screwed and there's no current way having these issues with transparency that I mentioned above?
Here, by the way, is the thread I mentioned that has to do with cross dissolves. I figured it was just an issue with that specific transition until I just now did this export with a 99% opaque clip on top of another clip and the resulting export looks more like an 85-90% opaque clip.

Thanks Todd!

Browser view in Dreamweaver different than IE view on other PCS

I'm setting up a new webpage. The page layout, fonts, etc. look great on my page in Dreamweaver CS4 and also when I use the preview in browser tool.
I then publish my page out to our Intranet - still looks good to me. However, everyone else in our office is seeing it differently. The fonts are different, the navigation buttons appear different, some of the colors are different. Looks horrible compared to the page I created. Any suggestions??

Without seeing the page, we can only guess.
Did you upload the CSS file with the page?

Dreamweaver view different than browser view.

I'm doing my best to learn HTML and CSS, but am a relative newbie.
I have my new homepage working in all the browsers I've tried (and Mac and PC), but it looks terrible in Dreamweaver which makes it very difficult to edit. What am I doing wrong? Since the page renders fine in all the browsers I've tested, I don't know where to start. Any help you guys can provide would be much appreciated.
The page is here:

TIA

Start by validating your code and fix reported errors. DW isn't a browser so it's much less forgiving of errors in your code. HINT: You have the <body> tag incorrectly nested above the </head> tag.
http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fskyhoundz.com%2F
Also keep in mind that since DW isn't a browser, Design View isn't 100% perfect. Use Live View and Preview in browsers to check layout changes.

Signed jar works differently than unsigned jar - why?

I'm having a problem with one of my JWS applications (out of six!) -- the application runs fine locally out of the jars. However, when I sign the main jar for running with JWS, it goes into a loop trying to read a property file contained within the main jar. This occurs whether I run it locally or from the JWS server.
The only difference I can see is that the manifest file is affected, but they both have the same reference to the main class and it's also in the jnlp file.
Any thoughts?

I'm having a problem with one of my JWS applications
(out of six!) -- the application runs fine locally out
of the jars. However, when I sign the main jar for
running with JWS, it goes into a loop trying to read a
property file contained within the main jar.If several jars are involved, I would try to have each one signed. And then test again.
This
occurs whether I run it locally or from the JWS
server.Weird.
The only difference I can see is that the manifest
file is affected, but they both have the same
reference to the main class and it's also in the jnlp
file.So far I too believed that the signing just causes additional entry lines in the Manifest file, where for each jar entry some cryptographic hash (md5, sha-1, ..) value will be written.
What happens if you mention the main class as well, in case you test from running from a jar from the command line?

Problem: design view looks completely different than live view

I am trying to make changes to my home page in Dreamweaver, and when I am viewing the page in 'design view' the background image for the container is missing, and the divs are all over the place. When I view the same page in live view and in browser preview, it looks fine.
Because I can't really see what the page is going to look like in 'design view', I can't really make changes to the site. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the help.

When things get really goofed up, it could be caused by malformed code or orphaned div tags. Sometimes browsers will let you slide with poor code, but DW Design View won't.

'Play Full Screen' looks different than 'play' (makes timing errors)

In iMovie, 'Play Full Screen' behaves differently than 'Play' Makes timing errors, cuts off the beginning of commentaries, etc.

You can't disable tap/zoom scaling. What happens if you add a margin and disable thumbnail?
Can you convert them to a Keynote presentation (Hype?)?
One option would be to reduce the original video dimensions and add a frame/mask around it before adding into a book, that way when it is expanded, it sits at a smaller size. Bunch of work, maybe, so unless you have higher rez video, that may be your best option.

Dreamweaver CS4 Preview Different Than Live?

Hi,
I need help/guidance figuring this out:
when the page is displayed in Dreamweaver CS4 design view the top menu is aligned properly, the font size is according to the CSS code and all other tags like H2 or H4 are properly displayed
same when I choose to see the new page in "Preview In Browser" (F12) in Firefox or Safari (I'm on Mac Book)
if I choose to preview the new page on "Live View" or after uploading to the server and view it in any browser suddenly the top menu is left aligned and all H tags are not displayed correctly.
This is a new development so the URL is on the hosting server as an IP: http://65.254.68.145
I tested with W3C and it passed.
Any pointers are appreciated.
Thanks,
Joseph

Thanks SnakEyez02 for your reply,
Most of the time I use "Preview in Browser" or [F12] and that shows me the same as the design view which in this case is different than actually viewing the page on the web server (live). I do understand your point for setting dimensions on the menu box and I'l do those changes, but maybe you can also give me your opinion for the H2 tags, as you can see in the 2 images attached to the original post, bellow the menu there are H2, H3 and H4 tags and they look different as well, it's like only part of the style.css is applied.
Thanks,
Joseph

Using iMovie 7.1.4 on an iMac w/ Snow Leopard; HD video imported with a Firewire cable transfers fine, but audio arrives with major static; problem persists w/ different cameras

Using iMovie 7.1.4 on an iMac w/ Snow Leopard; HD video imported with a Firewire cable transfers fine, but audio arrives with major static; problem persists w/ different cameras & Firewire cables; source DV tape has no audfio static.

I forgot to write down my computer specs:

Sound is out of sync in iMovie and video freezes at a part but audio continues. How do i fix this???

Can someone please help me. I have even tried the youtube videos and can't seem to get the sound to sync up on my videos in Imovie. Also, one part just stalls and stays on the same frame but the audio continues on fine.
I NEED HELP!!! This is for school and I can't hand this in all wacked out

44100 Hz is fine and the audio codec is fine. Most camcorders record at 48000 Hz, but audio CDs are recorded are 44100 Hz, and iMovie handles them well.
However, your video frame rate is an odd number. A camcorder in the US will usually record at 29.97 frames per second. In Europe, the standard is 25 fps. On some cameras, you also have the option of 24 fps (same as a Hollywood movie).
Your camera is recording at 14.89, which is about half of the 29.97 standard. I am guessing that the video is from a webcam or maybe a cell phone or still camera. It is difficult to sync audio over long periods of time if your video is not conforming to the standards. Cameras like this may record at varioable rates, so sometimes you get more than 14.89 and sometimes less. Your best bet would be to make an iMovie project at 29.97 fps, so that it will basically repeat each frame of your video twice to get up to 29.78 fps. Even so, it will drift out of sync over time.
If you had Final Cut Pro X, you could use the tools in FCP to conform your video and audio to a 29.97 timeline and probably keep it synced better. Long term, your best bet is to use a camcorder that can shoot 29.97 (or 30) fps.
Short term, I would suggest keeping your clips in your project short. For your 15 minute clip, drag in the first minute, then the 2nd minute, etc. untill you have it all. Even so, it may drift. Detaching audio is probably not necessary.

In IMovie my project view is fine until it is finalized and then images are getting partially cut off on top(people's heads etc) Is there something I can do?

My issue turned out possibly being a larger problem.
All of a sudden the server is in a bad, bad way. 30 minutes to get booted to the login screen. If I try to login I get beachballs for half a second at a time. I type login/password, the screen refreshes and I'm back to the login screen. I can't connect a keyboard/mouse directly to it, because it wants to do the keyboard recognition (I'm not using an Apple keyboard because they're all Bluetooth and I can't get in to do the Bluetooth sync). I can't do Disk Utility, because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut. I can't do Hardware Test, because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut. Can't reinstall Snow Leopard Server, because in their infinite wisdom Apple has removed the optical drive, and even if I had the optical, it wouldn't do any good because I can't connect a keyboard to do the key shortcut that would allow me to boot from the DVD.
I tried to do target disk override from Remote Desktop but it won't let me choose my other Mac's Remote Disc as a boot option. It also continues to show the Server as "Offline" even though power is on and it's on the network.
I would do my 2010 Air's USB drive - just to do a Disk Utility and see if it's a drive problem - but I can't tell the Server to boot from the USB stick.
Tried using my iMac as a monitor, that worked for a while, now it just flashes and then goes back to the iMac.
I'm thinking the logic board on this thing is about to die. Which is unfortunate, since my company opted out of AppleCare for this piece of equipment, and the 1 year expired last month. So...if the repair is going to end up being $800, they're going to have to pony up for a new server.
