Inaccurate light effects in encoded files

I've edited a video that makes extensive use of Premiere CS4's spotlight effect.  It encodes correctly to Flash, but not to avi or to mpeg2.  The ambient light and focus are very different in those two formats.  You can see the Flash version of the video here:
http://www.osborne-conant.org/miriam-video.htm
Since I can't correctly export to mpeg2, I can't make a useful DVD of this video.  Any suggestions?

You should ask your question in only one forum.  The original appears below.

  • Why can't I use lighting effect filter in CS6 with an 8bit RGB file?

    I've read all over that the filter only works with an 8bit/RGB file, which my file is, so I don't understand what the problem is.  I am attempting to light a smart object (3d bevel and extruded text) that I created in illustrator, and thought that I might just need to rasterize the smart object before the filter would work, but even after I render it and or flatten the image, merge visible, I still don't have the option to use lighting effects!  Please help! 

    Thank you for your prompt reply.  After doing a bit of investigating I'm finding out this video card is pretty shite (work owned machine), and I didn't have the gp enabled in performance prefs.  I had been using such an old version of PS previously I wasn't aware there was a setting for  this, frankly.  Per some other threads I found, I updated to the latest graphics accellerator drivers for it as well, but unfortunately the enable gp option is still greyed out, so I'm guessing it just won't run this onboard gpu doesn't meet some minimum system requirement or something.  Thx again.

  • Photoshop cc lighting effects do not seem to work

    I am trying to put spotlight on area in photo but from render - lighting effects all that happens is my workspace changes on the right to "lighting effects" but nothing works and I have to close this side and shut down photoshop just to go back to a normal "essential" workspace. == what is the problem?

    I'm having the same issue as well. Just started using CC tonight on both my home and work Macs. My home computer is a late 2006 MacPro, 6GB RAM, 2.66ghz and the work computer is 2013 MacPro with way more guts in it. Photoshop at home runs terribly slow all together but I did manage to see some slight improvement when I switched off "Use Graphics Processor" in the Preferences panel (Prefs > Performance) but this also turns off the Lighting effects filter. I remote logged in to my work Mac and using the same file (saved in the cloud), applied the lighting filter and it worked perfectly. All that to say, I'm pretty certain is a graphics processor/memory issue more than it being a CC issue. At home, the filter attempts to work, stops, and the only thing left is the properties panel like the effect is active.
    Looks like I need some upgrades.
    Hope this helps!

  • Using the lighting effects filter causes my CS6 to crash

    Hi,
    I read other threads with people have issues with their PC, but I am not able to follow them to correct my issues.
    When I open a JPEG file from my mark iii into CS6, I try to start a new layer and then add the lighting effects filter.  CS6 crashes (the little effects comes up on the screen and the little blue circle goes round and round). Nothing happens, but if I check task manager it says photoshop is not running. 
    I have windows, 16GB ram, and am using a small percent of my memory. 
    How do I see if I need to update my video card and how do I do that?
    Thank you, Michele

    Have you installed all the Photoshop updates?
    And have you checked your GPU maker's website for updated video card drivers?

  • Issues with Lighting Effects

    Filter - Render - Lighting Effects seems to be somewhat less than perfectly functional for me.
    Unlike another recent poster, I'm seeing the controls okay, but they don't actually seem to work properly.  Worse, I can reliably produce a crash.
    I have an ATI Radeon HD 5670 and Catalyst 12.6 (latest released) drivers for Windows 7 x64, Advanced mode GPU operation.  My detailed system info can be found here:  Link
    Chances are this is a display driver issue, but I want Adobe to know about it.
    Here's what I see...
    For testing I create a middle-gray square document, 8 bits/channel, sRGB, then start the Lighting Effects filter on it:
    If I toggle the preview setting off and on a number of times, this happens:
    This is reproducible, though it sometimes takes more or less Preview toogles.  Here is the pertinent information from several such Photoshop crashes:
    Next I am going to try Normal and Basic mode to see if they make any difference with this problem.  I'll follow up here.
    -Noel

    Noel, followed your example and no crashes on my system (Intel 4000 card with latest production drivers) but horribly slow, probably the slowest filter I have ever tried - Basically unusable.....

  • Need help with Lighting Effects; CS3

    So, let's say that you were trying to work out some customization using the Lighting effects under: Filter > Render > Lighting Effects.
    I understand that there is a very specific file that has the Styles.
    Any chance I can fix this problem?

    If you mean that they're grayed out then that's because you're not in RGB color mode with 8bits/channel. If you mean that the filters simply don't show up in the Filters menu then they're probably hidden in which case go to Edit->Menus and make sure that the Set dropdown is set to Photoshop Defaults (switching to the Basic workspace changes the menus to the Basic set that hides a lot of menu items)

  • JavaFx Lighting Effects : When to Use which ???

    Hi,
    I know that this question in more design oriented than technical,
    but still i'm posting this question in this forum .
    I wanted to start off with javaFx lighting effects and i have found very good examples online .
    I have seen the implementation of lighting effects at:
    [http://code-better.com/javafx/lighting|http://code-better.com/javafx/lighting]
    and [http://jfxstudio.wordpress.com/2009/03/18/javafx-light-effect/|http://jfxstudio.wordpress.com/2009/03/18/javafx-light-effect/]
    These applications just gave us the ability to configure the lighting options .
    I also have found a file effects.fx online and in that i see that
    effect: Lighting{
    light: DistantLight{azimuth: 90}
    } // to be used to make a button look pressed
    and
    effect: Lighting{
    light: DistantLight{azimuth: 270}
    } // to be used to make a button look upbeat .
    But this hasn't worked for me in few scenarios .
    For example i have tried to apply these 90 and 270 distant light effects
    to buttons made of various gradients and for some it seemed to have worked and
    for some it doesn't seem to have worked .
    I think we will have to change the color of distant light for that .
    Could any one point me to a guide or online site or some tips
    that will help be in understanding which effect to use when and which color
    should i use for the lighting effect and other stuff .
    It would be of great help for me .
    Thanks a lot .
    bye

    Hi JavaFx Duo,
    Thanks for your reply .
    Actually I wanted to find out info like how to make an image ( or button of any gradient )
    look gone inside or look up ( in a measurable way, i mean depth or height below/over the surface )
    using lighting effects . And how does the azimuthal angle
    and the color of the light source have an effect on it .
    Earlier i have posted a forum in which Phi Lho has answered me
    on how to make the button text look gone down and i can try to achieve
    that by trying similar here .
    [http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10844582&#10844582|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10844582&#10844582]
    But i thought of making use of the lighting effects and i want to know if any guide or tutorial
    is available which describes the lighting effect with various Colors
    and angles and when to use distant light/point light and spot light effects .
    I would also like to know a few practical implementations
    of these effects in javaFx ( i.e as i have posted earlier 90-for making it look deep and 270 for looking elevated
    and such stuff ............................. ) by varying the angle and Color ,
    So that i can use them in my applications rather than trying various combination
    each time .
    Thanks

  • Lighting effects ellipse not shown in CS6

    MI am using CS6 Extended on an HP dv7 Pavillion running Windows 7 Ultimate. It is a 64bit system with 6GB of RAM. Display is NVIDIA GeForce GT230M.
    I am trying to uses the Filter>Render>Lighting Effects feature. I can get to the option toolbar and properties panel (which also results in workspace changing from Essential (or whatever) to the Lighting Effects workspace. What doesn't happend is that the ellipse doesn't show up that allows control of the lighting (e.g. no ellipse, no handles, nothing to see to make adjustments). I've seen this issue come up in some other threads but it doesn't appear to have been solved as recently as 9/24/2013. The other thing that happens is that I get stuck at that point, i.e., I can't change workspace, can't delete history, etc. The only way out is to close the file, which then asks if I want to apply effects which I say no to since I didn't specify any, then cancel the close.
    I've adjusted the Edit>Preferences>Performance settings so that the Cache is now 6 instead of 4.
    I'm taking a class and need to use this feature as part of an assignment. Any help would be appreciated.

    http://forums.adobe.com/thread/979969?tstart=0 I'm afraid that this videocard is not powerful enough to drive the new 3D-based Lighting effects:

    I'm currently trying to find out as much as I can about the lighting effects that are avaialble in Flash, but so far all my searches have come up with absolutley nothing - is there any such thing in Flash? I'd like to be able to create spotlights/point lights/etc. If this is even possible I'd highly appreciate it if someone could point me in the direction of some tutorials or even just tell me the names of the classes I should use and I'll look into it myself... so far searching the Flash help files for "lighting" has returned no results.
    In the event that this is not possible, I'm going to need to use masks instead (this is what I am currently doing, but it seems the 'man in charge' wants it done differently...) and was wondering whether it was possible to create a 'blur' effect at the edges of my mask layer? I think this could possibly be done by making the alpha value of my mask shape gradually get lower towards the edges (Is this possible either?) but again I'm not really sure where to begin.
    To sum up what I need - basically just some way of making it look like a light is shining across a 2D plane (the background), illuminating a portion of it before fading away into darkness.
    I'm really struggling with working out where to begin here, so any help at all would be great. Thanks in advance everyone.

    You won`t be able to have real Lights in Flash, so If you want to hold on to Flash, you would have to fake them -as you guessed right- with Alpha Masks.
    Here is a good tutorial.

  • Lighting Effect Question

    I recently installed PS CC and am working with some images that I'd like to apply lighting effects to. In particular I'm trying to apply the spot light effect. I see all the appropriate controls and can manipulate the individual characteristics. However, the lighting effect appears to be getting applied to the entire image (i.e., not focused to the spot outline). The effect is like a complete layer blend as opposed to a targetted effect.
    I've confirmed that "use graphics processor" is selected and that the image is 8-bit RGB. This is on Win7 64-bit (Dell Core i7 w/8GB RAM and a fast internal HD).
    Anyone have any ideas here?
    Thanks!

    Ya, odd - sure would be nice to get this figured out...

  • CS6 Lighting Effects will not run

    Not enough RAM?  Really?  I am running HP laptop....Intel I7 2nd generation / 8GB Ram / 750GB HD / 1 GB VRAM.  Even small files are not working.
    Please advise

    I am using Adobe Creative Cloud...so updates come regularly.  I have used this filter before,  Now when it is launched it just gives me this error:
         "could not complete the lighting effects command becasue there is not enough memory (RAM).
    I have checked preferences.  Video Card has been enabled for 3D and I am using 6.85GB allocation for photoshop.  Have bumped it to 98%.  I have checked efficiency at bottom, never drops below 100%. 
    Heres the stats on the help / system info:

  • I cannot save custom lighting effects in Photoshop CS4

    Under Filters>Render>Lighting Effects.
    Whenever I try to save a custom lighting effect in Photoshop CS4 an error message pops up saying "An error occurred while trying to save the style."
    I am using an iMAC.
    Video display card / driver version: ATY,RadeonX1600
    Thanks for any help.

    I solved the problem by deleting my original user account, but saving all my files first.  I created a new account with adminstrative access, then opened up my old user files from the Deleted User folder and dragged them over to my new user account.  The problem with saving custom lighting effects in Photoshop is fixed.  Thanks for the tip leading me to realize it was the user profile causing the problem and not Adobe PS.
