JPEGs elongated

when I use jpegs as part of the video, when the video is exported and I watch the video, the jpeg are warped (elongated, squished) I've tried everything I know and can't seem to get FCP to stop doing it. Any ideas?

I believe FCP will interpret what to do with a picture that needs tweeking when imported. This can not always have the desired outcome, so the best bet is to feed FCP the right thing. Your photos could be in sq pixels, 720x540 say. Output an image in rect. pix (perhaps called d1 ntsc or something in photoshop) 720x486 for import into fcp.

  • Import jpeg from photoshop into premiere pro CS5 and keep exact proportions.

    We are trying to insert jpegs into the timeline of a project that was captured DV movie frame 720 x 480.  A graphics person has created jpegs with the frame size of 1440 x 960.  When I import that into Premiere, we have a black space above and below the safe margins when I scale to frame size and am first wondering if that will be ok.  When I change the image size to 720 x 480 and import that and put it in the timeline, the pictures seem to be a little elongated. Can you please tell me how to import the jpegs into premiere and keep the exact proportions for the jpegs?

    By changing the pixel aspect ratio to 720 x 534, all works perfectly now.  Thank you for the help.

  • Any idea why my jpeg is being stretched?

    Hi there,
    Just wondering if anyone can tell me why my jpeg is stretched now its been through dreamweaver?
    http://www.michelelambertyoga.co.uk/
    The photoshop dimensions for the image are 960 x 656 pixels and it looks perfect in photoshop.
    Ive made the container the same size but its still looks elongated....
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Cheers
    Benn

    Your code tells the browser to stretch it -
    <img src="holding page simple.jpg" width="960" height="732" border="0" usemap="#Map2" />
    (the image's native size is 960 x 654)
    You must have inserted the image and then dragged the height.

    ImageIO.write((RenderedImage) bufferedImage, outExtension,saveFile);
    //out.flush();
    then saving the image even in "png" also fails.

  • Since updating Firefox as suggested, when I 'save as' a jpeg, it automatically finds the folder and it's always the wrong folder. How can I disable this feature and go back to the original mode where it remains in the folder I choose until I change it?

    For example, I saved a jpeg named 'picasso the guitarist'. I have folders titled A to Z. When I click 'save as' it might open the 'K' folder and I have to manually search the 'P' folder for 'Picasso' and save file. The most irritating thing is, when I 'save as' another jpeg of say 'pieter mother & child' it goes to another folder and does not remain in the 'P' folder, rather it goes to the 'X' folder or some other. This didn't happen before the last upgrade. Can I disable this new 'help' feature that is taking more time than the old version?

    Current Firefox versions remember the download directory based upon the URL, so if the URL changes then the default folder may be chosen if there hasn't been selected a download folder before for that server.

  • When creating a DVD face in Photoshop 13 my save options are limited to .PSE and .PDF.  Why can I not save as a jpeg or other file format?  This was never an issues in Elements 10 (my previous version).

    I just recently purchased Elements 13. I am in the process of creating a DVD face for a video. The design is complete and I would like to be able to save it as a JPEG so I can use it in another program that prints my DVD's. The problem is that it only allows me to save the file as at PSE or a PDF. No other options are available. Why is this?  I upgraded from Elements 10. In Elements 10 I have never had a problem saving this type of project as a JPEG.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    ANSWER FOUND!
    Once I finished composing my question I went back and spent some time to figure out the problem. Rather than choosing the "save as" option, which doesn't work, or attempting to choose "export" (grayed out), the correct option is to choose "export creation", which is near the very bottom of the initial drop down options. That works!  I still think it would make sense to have it as an option in the "save as" area.

    Hi
    I am running a stand-alone version of Framemaket 10.I try to convert a documentation with a lot of screenshots in it. Regardless of the settings on the Reference pages of the first document of the book, Framemaker converts all graphic files to *.gif, and these are downsized so much that they become illegible. I would like to have them converted to JPG, with little resolution loss, so they are still readable.
    I think Robohelp is too expensive…

  • Media Encoder CC won't import a JPEG sequence to the queue

    I am running Media Encoder CC 7.2.2.29 (64-bit) on OSX 10.9.4.
    I have a JPEG sequence GoPro timelapse image sequence that I want to encode into a video clip. All files have a .jpg extension. They are 4000x3000 and have an RGB color space. The Color profile is SRGB IEC61966-21. All images are 3.9MB.
    According to the ME help I should do the following.
    To add an image sequence, choose File > Add Source. In the Open dialog box, choose the first file of the image sequence. Enable the  Sequence Import checkbox for your file type, and then click the Open button.
    I follow the instructions and select the first image in the sequence. The "JPEG File Sequence" checkbox is active and I check it and click the Open button. The dialog disappears and nothing happens. There are no warnings.
    How does one get JPEG sequences to import to the queue?
    Please advise.
    -Travis

    Yes, import into premiere work fine. The nice part about using AME directly is you don't have to have to create a project or use an old one every time you want to crunch a timelapse. Also, AME has this nice feature where it will autoname the output file IMG[FirstStill]-[LastStill] (ie IMG[GP001234-GP001297]). This was helpful because GoPros change the first number in the sequence every time you stop and start time lapse.

  • Adobe Bridge (CS6) - bulk action - JPEG Options must be OKed for every image

    Hi all-
    I created an action script for a watermark in Photoshop CS6. Then, I ran my script as a bulk action in Adobe Bridge (CS6) against my JPEGs. However, the JPEG Options dialog/window appears for every image in PS.

  • How to view .jpeg files in Yosemite

    Am using Yosemite (10.10.2) on my iMac and want to view rather old .jpeg photos. When I attempt to open them, I get an error message saying Photoshop 3.0 is required. When the file titles are displayed in Finder, I can see the little-bitty picture, so I think the Mac knows the picture is there, just reluctant to let me view it.  (I tried using Preview and iPhoto and neither one works for this.)
    Is there some way to view these photos with the existing Mac programs?
    Thank you,
    TBS2

    Thanks for all the replies. I tried to respond to everyone individually, but the rules say I can only post content every 30 seconds. Hence this combined reply.
    Don't have "Quick Look" on my iMac. I did use the "Get Info" option to open all .jpeg files with Preview. Didn't work. Did try to open the files from within Preview using the "Open file" option.
    Tried opening with Firefox (thanks to whomever posted that hint somewhere on the blog) and the Firefox error message says there is an error in the file.
    I am able to open other .jpeg files with Preview, so I am now of the belief there is a problem with the file, not with how my system is handling it.
    Suppose a "fixer" of some kind is in order, but I don't know what that is!
    Thanks again for everyones help.

  • Lightroom JPEG export VS Photoshop Image Processor

    Hey guys:
    Long time photoshop and lightroom user (long time user of all things Adobe). First post here in the forums. I did a search for my question but I think it was too specific, so it returned zero results.
    My question is about Lightroom's JPEG export vs Photoshops Image Processor. When I export a RAW file to JPEG from Lightroom, the file size is freaking huge. The JPEG is as big as my original RAW file (~25mb). Settings are set to default - 100 quality. Everything else remains untouched.
    However, when I use Photoshop's image processor (I launch it through Bridge, easier that way for me) and process the RAW images that way, my JPEGs are roughly 5-10mb in size. Settings in Image Processor are quality 10 and thats it. No actions being run or anything.
    Can anyone shed some light as to why Lightroom exports JPEGs that are roughly 2-4 times the size of Photoshop's JPEGs? My initial thoughts are that the 100 quality setting in Lightroom is more like Photoshop's quality 12 (that always makes me think of Spinal Tap - "Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?" "These go to eleven.") Ideally, exporting out of Lightroom would be much easier for my workflow.
    Thanks in advance.

    You are correct: LR Quality 100 = PS Quality 12
    Despite LR having 101 Quality settings (0 to 100) it actually only has 12 Quality settings the same as PS 'Baseline Standard':

  • "Save image" button of Camera Raw does not save JPEG with modifications made.

    I am using Bridge CC to process my RAW images and make modifications to some JPEG images as well.  I have no need to further alter images in Photoshop at the moment, so I do all modifications in Camera Raw. After altering my images, I then press the "save image" button at the left bottom corner of Camera Raw and choose the settings to save in JPEG.  However, when I upload these JPEG images to a website or when I email them, the image is uploaded without the modifications I had done!  It seems to me that Camera Raw is saving JPEGs the same way it does for RAW images, in a non-destructive manner, only attaching instructions for the images to be displayed properly on Photoshop. But when I save an image in JPEG, I expect the image to be saved entirely with the modifications I made while still keeping the original RAW file.  What goes on then?  What is Camera Raw doing and how do I get to save a modified image in JPEG with Camera Raw?  Would you please explain?
    Many thanks for your help,
    Beza

    Hi,
    What version of camera raw and operating system are you using?

  • Photoshop CS2 won't save files in JPEG format

    I have Windows Vista and am using Photoshop CS2 Version 9.
    Until today everything was working fine, but there are two problems.
    1. Only today I have a limited amount of formats to save a .PSD file in:
    PSD, CIN, PDF, RAW, PNG, and TIFF.
    Whereas if I want to save a JPEG file per say as another format, I get the full list to choose from.
    2. If I choose a layer on an image, not all the filters show up that I can run it through. The 'Artistic, Brush Strokes, Pixelate, Sketch, and Stylize' are not clickable.
    Thank you.
