Make Ps create thumbnails for CR2 image files

It's frustrating trying to find an images with cryptic camera file names. Why doesn't Ps create thumbnail images of those file types?

Just as a bit of follow-up, with appropriate codecs these things are entirely doable....

Photoshop Elements Organizer 11 crashes due to deadlock in the thread wait chain when creating thumbnails for *.mts (AVCHD) files

Hi,
the Elements Organizer 11 creates a deadlock in the wait chain when generating thumbnails for more than a handful of MTS (AVCHD) files.
After importing AVCHD files from my Canon video camera, the organizer using default settings always crashes. I was able to narrow down the problem to be caused by thumbnail generating.
After deactivating the automatic generation of thumbnails, the organizer does not crash any more upon launching .
Of course, working without thumbnails is not very practical. The next resort is manual trigger of thumbnail generation by selecting "update thumbnail".
If I manually trigger updating of thumbnails for files one by one, then it works for quite many files before crashing again.
Selecting thumbnail update for multiple files at once has a much higher likelihood to crash.
This does not seem to be related to particular file contents: a file that leads to crashing once may be flawlessly get a thumbnail created at the next attempt.
The Windows event report looks as follows (German language Windows):

Occasionally, a different module is listed as erroneous instead of msvcrt.dll.
My questions:
- has anyone experienced the same problem?
- is this a known issue with Organizer 11?
- is the issue solved with Organizer 12?
I have Premiere Elements 11, Photoshop Elements 11 installed and not experienced any other issues with these applications.
Playback of said AVCHD (*.mts) files works flawlessly, i.e. I do not have any codec or performance issue on my PC.
Deactivation of anti-virus software has no significant effect. I have excluded video directories from scanning anyways.
Have deactivated face recognition, visual search and smart tagging in the organizer.
Have also disabled hyperthreading in the BIOS.
Using Windows XP compatibility settings for PSE somewhat improved the stability, but did not completely eliminate crashes.
Additionally, it signnificantly slows down thumbnail generation and a progress indication window becomes visible during thumbnail generation, which is barely noticable in native Win 8.1 mode.
Officially, Elements 11 is compatible with Windows 8.1.
There is a knowledgebase article related to Elements 6, which recommends to disable multi-threading and to enforce execution of Organizer on more than one core.
This reduces the problem a little bit, but thumbnailing more than a handful of files still leads to crashing.
By means of the task manager, I analyzed the wait chain of the process PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe:
Every time the fault occurs, it is caused by a deadlock in the wait chain.
For example:
PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe (PID:6440) Thread: 6540
-- PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe (PID:6440) Thread: 5932
---- PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe (PID:6440) Thread: 6540

Looking for a script that creates labels for linked image files in the layout

I'm working on a large book with over 650 images and I need to show the file names along with the images in layout for proofing reasons. Does anyone have a script for that does something like this? I'm working in INDD 6.
Appreciate your help / suggestions!

This is great— thank you! however you have to select all the image in order to generate the live caption. My file is about 320+ pages, any way to run live caption without having to select the files?

Is it possible to add a thumbnail to an image file with core graphics ?

Hi,
I'm writing a small image processing application.
For image reading and writing I'm using core graphics (CGImageSourceRef / CGImageDestinationRef).
Several image formats like jpeg or tiff provide the option to store a thumbnail in the file.
To get this thumbnail I'm using
CGImageSourceCreateThumbnailAtIndex( ... )
which works fine so far. If there is no thumbnail in the image it is created
with this function. Now, in the case there was no thumbnail in the image I would like to store
the created thumbnail in the image file when I write it to the disk. So far I failed to find a function in core graphics
to perform this task. In the CGImageDestinationRef documention it is only mentioned, that thumbnails
are written into the output file, but not how to add these.
I fear I'm overseeing something very trivial ...
Regards,
ingo

I believe that a Smart Object will solve your problem.
place your original image in a new file as a smart object and do the same for the reflection (made by Transforming, reducing the opacity and introducing a mild horizontal motion blur) on its own layer, then:
by double clicking on the smart object in the layers panel and returning to the original image, any change you make in the original and save, will automatically update the upright image and its reflection.
Nice one Norm. Five Kudos points to you.

Hi,
You should have known this would be caused by some registry entries were modified incorrectly by some software, especially third party codec pack.
I would suggest you import the a good known copy from a good display windows 7 computer, just import such this content:

"Content Type"="video/quicktime"
"PerceivedType"="video"

Creating thumbnail of a video file

hi all,
i'm thinking about creating a thumbnail for a video file (my format is 3gp) -> i think it's gonna be like the first frame of the video to become an image file
how can i do that? any1 pls help...
btw, when i record a video in K610i...is it always like this: there's a "junk" display on the right(or bottom part if you use ur phone in normal way) part of the screen?
i once found out that by fixing this 'error' the only way is to upgrade the firmware of the K610i, my question is : is there any other ways to fix this 'error' ??
thanks in advance... hope to hear from you guys soon...

i mean:
the web server (which has ffmpeg installed) do the job for you...
a servlet or anything else do a Runtime.getRuntime()exec("<ffmpeg_command>");when a video arrives on the server, store the video in n formats and create a thumbnail
for the video. search on the web, you can easily find lots of stuff...
or do it yourself with ffmpeg if you have few videos...

Creating thubnails for Quicktime .mov files.

Is there any way to create thumbnails for .mov files?

1] Try it with another user account (make one if you need to in Apple menu > System Preferences > Accounts)
2] If its only happening in your account:
Inside your hard drive, in the Users folder should be your user home folder (with your account name.) Within that folder is a folder called Library... open that and look for a QuickTime folder within, pull that QuickTime folder out to the Desktop. Do the same for Internet Plug-ins and throw away the ~/Library/Caches/QuickTime folder too. Then, open Preferences and pull out com.apple.quicktime... (all of them) and the QuickTime Preferences file.
Then log out (Apple menu) and back in (or restart) and try again.
3] If its happening for all users then try:
Pull the /Library/Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plist to the desktop (Your QuickTime Pro registration is in that file so don't throw it away, just move it out, restart and try again.)
4] If there are still problems, try repairing your disk either with the OS X install disc (run Disk Utility from the menu bar) or by rebooting in Singel-User-Mode and running fsck. Then repair permissions with Disk Utility.
Let us know if you still have trouble.

Has anyone received this error, "Failed to create directory for PX images"

I recently migrated to Windows7. 98% of the migration went well. All of my pictures and Elements Catalog came over fine. I had to "reconnect" all of the pictures in the catalog due to new directory name, but it worked fairly well. Of the 11,000 entries synch'd with photoshop.com, 10,500 re-synch'd fine. However almost 500 are stuck with an error of "Failed to create directory for PX images". Can anyone help with how to resolve this issue? Note, I did try to remove the picture from the album and then re-add, but that didn't work.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
Thanks,

How do I change the thumbnail for a video file?

Can I change the thumbnail for a video file (ex. .mov) in Bridge CS4?

Can I change the thumbnail for a video file (ex. .mov) in Bridge CS4?
Not to my knowledge. It seems it takes a snapshot from about the 10th second of the movie and creates a thumbnail for it. On a Mac the finder thumbnail shows the first frame of a movie, both don't seem to be able in getting customized.
It will be down to a good naming convention I'm afraid. Not having CS4 installed anymore but on Bridge CS6 .mov files play on an reasonable sized scale in good quality in the preview window, maybe that will help you?

Help needed trying make thumbnails from large Image Files

I posted this to the Flex message bored, too. I didn't notice
the Actionscript 3.0 until after. Sorry. Anyway, I have some
ActionScript 3.0 code, created with Flex that will load a large
JPEG image (say 3000x2000 pixels) that I'm trying to create a 100
pixel thumbnail. I have the code working where I generate the
thumbnail, but it's not maintaining the aspect ratio of the
original image. It's making it square, filling in white for the
part that doesn't fit.
I've tried just setting the height or width of the new
image, but that doesnt render well, either.
To see what I'm talking about, I made a screen shot, showing
the before image, and the rendered as thumbnail image:
Image of demo
app at Flickr.
Now, there's a few things important to note. I'm saving the
thumbnail off as a JPEG. As you can see in my sample application,
the original renders fine with the proper aspect ratio, it's when
I'm copying the bytes off the bitmapdata object, where I need to
specify a width and height, that the trouble starts. I've also
tried using .contentHeight and .contentWidth and some division to
manually specify a new bitmapdatasize, but these values seem to
always have NaN.
private function makeThumbnail():void{
// create a thumbnail of 100x100 pixels of a large file
// What I want to create is a a thumbnail with the longest
size of the aspect
// ratio to be 100 pixels.
var img:Image = new Image();
//Add this event listener because we cant copy the
BitmapData from an
/// image until it is loaded.
img.addEventListener(FlexEvent.UPDATE_COMPLETE,
imageLoaded);
img.width=100;
img.height=100;
img.scaleContent=true;
img.visible = true;
// This is the image we want to make a thumbnail of.
img.load("file:///C:/T5.jpg");
img.id = "testImage";
this.addChildAt(img, 0);
private function imageLoaded(event:Event):void
// Grab the bitmap image from the Input Image and
var bmd:BitmapData =
getBitmapDataFromUIComponent(UIComponent(event.target));
//Render the new thumbnail in the UI to see what it looks
theImage.source = new Bitmap(bmd); //new Bitmap(bmd);
public static function
getBitmapDataFromUIComponent(component:UIComponent):BitmapData
var bmd:BitmapData = new
BitmapData(component.width,component.height );
bmd.draw(component);
return bmd;
}

Creating Thumbnails for web page links to larger images.

I want to create thumbnail images for linking to web page linking to enlargements. I'm using PhotoShop Elements 2.0 on a Dell 2400, XP Home Edition with 512mb RAM and 35gb storage available.
The language I read in help sections doesn't addressed the issue I want help with. I believe it addresses saving thumbnails for Windows and Mac using .tiff or .psd format, not the .jpg or .gif I need. It seemed like there should be a way to change the thumbnail format. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi Ted,
You can use the ' Web Photo gallery ' as Jodi suggested for a large
number of images or,
Open your image, click the bar at the top of the displayed image &
reset the size to what you want, then 'File', 'Save for Web' & save as
.jpg or .gif. .jpg gives more options for reducing file size so that
is what I use. Close the image without saving
HTH,
Alex,
