Making shot from my film into a jpeg

I want to have a picture from a movie of mine as the DVD cover, how do I make a freeze frame into a jpeg?
Thanks!

just mark an In/Out at the same position on the clip, choose the clip in your Browser window, choose "export using QT conversion", choose "still image" in the format selector, click option and choose your format (jpeg, if you wish), click "save" with your chosen file name and location.
hope this helps,

Calling from an EJB into a JSF Backing Bean

Hello all,
I'm looking for some help in making calls from an EJB into a Backing Bean (the converse is fairly straightforward). My basic question is: what is regarded as the best way to do this?
However, for anybody who's interested, I'll describe what I've been trying...
Here's my situation (I'm working with OC4J 10.1.3.2). I have a simple application-scoped backing bean:
   public class BackingBean implements SimpleInterface, Serializable {
       private String greeting = "Hello, World";
       private SessionEJBRemote blBeanRemote = null;
       public BackingBean() {
           // get hold of EJB
           // [ ... code to obtain EJB's remote interface snipped ... ]
           // set the callback with the EJB
           try {
               blBeanRemote.setCallback(this);
           } catch (Exception ex) {
               ex.printStackTrace();
       // methods to manipulate the greeting string
       public String getGreeting() {
           return greeting;
       public void setGreeting(String greeting) {
           this.greeting = greeting;
   }SimpleInterface, which my Backing Bean implements is, well, a simple interface:
   public interface SimpleInterface {
       public void setGreeting(String greeting);
   }And my EJB is also pretty straightforward:
   @Stateful(name="SessionEJB")
   public class SessionEJBBean implements SessionEJBRemote, SessionEJBLocal {
       private SimpleInterface callback = null;
       public void setCallback(SimpleInterface callback) {
           this.callback = callback;
           callback.setGreeting("Goodbye, World");
   }Now, by using SimpleInterface, my intention was to ensure a one-way dependency: i.e. the JSF-level code would depend on the EJB-level code, but not vice versa.
However, my experimentation has shown that when I make the call to blBeanRemote.setCallback, the parameter appears to be passed by value rather than by reference. This means firstly that, at runtime, by EJB needs to have access to my backing bean class and secondly, that the call to callback.setGreeting has no effect.
Can anybody suggest how to work around this? Is it possible to pass the backing bean by reference? Is there a better way to achieve this callback? I appreciate that these questions might be more general Java/AppServer queries rather than JSF-specific ones - but hopefully this is something that all you JSF experts have encountered before.
(Incidentally, I realise that what I'm doing in this example is pointless - what I'm building towards is using the ICEFaces framework to have the EJBs prod a backing bean which will in turn cause a user's browser to rerender.)
Many thanks - any help very much appreciated!
Alistair.

Hi Raymond - yes, you've pretty much got that spot on: an event occurs (say receipt of a JMS message - which is spontaneous, as far as the users are concerned). As a result of that event, the client's view (in their browser) needs to be re-rendered.
ICEFaces uses the AJAX technique to allow server-pushes, and rather than refreshing the whole page it uses "Direct-to-DOM" rendering to maninpulate the page components. If you've not come across it, and you're interested, then there are some pretty interesting demos here: http://www.icefaces.org/main/demos/ - the "chat" feature of the Auction Monitor demo (if you open it up in two browsers) is the nearest to the effect I'm looking for.
The Auction Monitor demo uses a number of session-scoped beans, each implementing the ICEFaces "Renderable" interface, and each of which registers itself with an application-scoped bean. The application-scoped bean can thus iterate through each of the session-scoped beans and cause the corresponding browser to refresh.
Unfortunately, in the Auction Monitor demo, the entry point is always from a browser - albeit the result is then mirrored across all connected browsers. I haven't found any examples of this processing being driven by an external event, hence my experimentation in this area!

Trying to load disc with Photos from 35MM/Film

Place disc from 35mm film into iphoto. When I place disc into computer , nothing indicates that I have done that? What am I missing?

Welcome to the Apple users forum
When I place disc into computer , nothing indicates that I have done that? What am I missing?
what format is the disk and what format are the photos - where did the disk come from - this sounds like a computer problem not an iPhoto problem - could be either hardware or OS related unless you can provide more information - until you can see the disk on your computer and see that the uinformation on it is compatible with yoru computer none of the programs on the computer including iPhoto will be able to access the information on it

8 mm film into iMovie

I have quite a bit of the old 8mm movie film, and would like to get it into iMovie 4 for editing. A local firm will transfer it to a DVD, but I am not sure if I can then get the clips from the DVD into i Movie.
Any other suggestions as to how to get the images from the film into iMovie?
Thank you.

iMac G5 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

Hello nebr,
I have had a lot of 8 mm movie film converted to directly to miniDV. This is obviously the best option to use with iMovie. I just plug the tape into my camera and load the movies into iMovie just like my newly filmed material.
If you ask your local firm, I am sure that they can transfer the movies to miniDV rather than a DVD. They will probably charge you for the tape, or ask you to provide the tapes you want, but I am sure that they can do it. If not, there are plenty of other companies out there who will - and you can find them easily with a google search.
You do NOT want them to transfer your data to DVD! It is very difficult to get info from a DVD into iMovie. Plus, the info on a DVD is compressed, so you get a degraded copy when you try to retreive info from it (and the old movies on 8mm film reels are often pretty poor quality to start with, so any further degradation is really noticeable).
Hope this helps,
Lincoln

I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto. You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone. How do you turn your document into a jpeg now.

I made a picture collage in pages from the pictures in iPhoto. You used to be able to print and then say save as a jpeg to iPhoto and that option is gone. How do you turn your document into a jpeg now?

If you chose print, you can save as PDF. If you open the saved PDF in preview, you can save as JPEG, GIF, PNG. FYI you can crop in preview.
Another option is you could use command + shift + 4 to do a screen shot of a specific part of of the screen.

Radial gradient corrupted during conversion from EPS10 into bigger JPEG

I use Illustrator CS4 and Photoshop CS4 extended.
recently came scross rasteirizing of radial gradient when convert from AI CS4 file to EPS10 file and then buyer converts it into big 4000x4000 pxls JPEG. Never experienced that before.
It is visible only after conversion EPS into big JPEG.
Linear gradients are all smooth after conversion but radial is corrupted.
I clean my illustration before saving as EPS.
When I save my illustration AICS4 as EPS10, I check:
-preview-transparent;
-transparency preset : high resolution 100%,
-convert all strokes in outline,
-convert text in outline (if I have it in my illustration);
-include CMYK PostScript in RGB file,
-Compatible Gradient and Gradient Mash Printing.
I check then EPS file for rasteirizing : window-links.
No sign of any rasteirization. All nice and smooth.
here, how looks corrupted radial gradient after conversion to big JPEG from small EPS10. Note, that on the bottom of image linear gradient is almost ok.
What I am doing wrong?
When I upsize my AI CS4 file to 4000x4000pxls and then convert to EPS10, and then into JPEG of the same size, - Radial gradient is smoother, almost perfect. But the size of of EPS file is too big and out of acceptable limits.
Jim

Thank you for reply.
Now I see that I did not explain it properly.
Sorry for that.
I need to provide my illustration saved as EPS10 with small Jpeg for preview via internet to the client, the way he requires to have it. I do not know why he wants it that way.
After receiving my EPS file with small Jpeg, he is making from that EPS10 file a big JPEG for his needs. It is what he wants.
When he is convertin' EPS10 file into big JEPEG, radial gradient becomes corrupted.
I followed his steps to try to undertstand what went wrong and got the same corrupted radial gradient in JPEG file, as you see on provided image.
What I want to know is how to accomplish what he wants without loosing quality.
Could you tell me, please, how to save illustration as EPS10 in Illustrator CS4 proper way.
Thank you.

Why do files from my Nikon D200 camera which are shot at 28MB come into Aperture at only 7MB?

Why do files from my Nikon D200 camera which are shot at 28MB come into Aperture at only 7MB?
I had these images in Large Fine JPG format at 28MB but when imorted and started working with them they are only & MB files in Aperture?

Léonie,
honestly speaking, I have done most of my image adjustments since 2006 (when I bought the D200) in various image processing applications (e.g. Capture One, Bibble 5 - now turned to AfterShot Pro by Corel, Lightroom at a friend's PC). I also tried Nikon's Capture NX but never liked it. Speaking of images that have been worth while keeping and working with as a RAW file I never saw any difference. As far as I can say with respect to Aperture 3 I come to the the same result as I did with the other software.
People may say that with the disk space being so cheap now it is not worth while thinking about that. But there is one other aspect that can be of advantage in certain situations: The compressed RAWs are transferred faster to and from the the card than the uncompressed files. Also, the time for decompression in applications seems to be shorter than that saved while reading the smaller files.
Before I started to use the compression feature (which in fact should be not lossless in the case of D200) I studied some reviews on that, of course.
Citing one of them one could say
"I tried to make duplicate shots to compare. I gave up. The mechanical exposure repeatability of my camera and nature itself aren't stable enough to let me make two captures close enough to see any possible difference between compressed and uncompressed raw.
People do see differences. They are seeing fluctuations in their technique shot-to-shot, not any differences due to the compression."
by Ken Rockwell
If you are interested, here is the original article by Ken Rockwell.
Another very elaborate investigation can be found here.
Again, a quote from the controversal discussion on that comparison:
"The ‘lossy’ NEF compression is really a clever use of information theory to save space by eliminating redundant raw levels. The noise which is unavoidably present in light effectively dithers tonal transitions so that the compression is *perceptually lossless*."
by a poster named emil
As far as I have read elsewhere, newer cameras as the D300 even have really "lossless" compression algorithms.
Cheers,
Michael

How do I transfer video files shot from my camera (Canon 5DMk2) which is in .MOV format into iTunes ?

how do I transfer video files shot from my camera (Canon 5DMk2) which is in .MOV format into iTunes ? My photos and video files are first imported into Aperture then synced with iTunes. However, itunes does not capture the Video files but uploads the phtos from Aperture during sync.
I tried dragging the video files into iTunes but it still would not be captured into iTunes ?
Appreciate any help on this. Thanks

Open them in Quicktime Player 10.1. Then, use Quicktime's Share menu > iTunes. That will create an iTunes compatible version and automatically load it into your iTunes movie library.

Capturing a screen shot from a DVD?

Is it possible to be watching a commercial DVD on my computer and capture a screen shot from that DVD that I could eventually then print? (I put this question in iPhoto because I imagine it would come into play at some point.)
Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Yes you can but you will need a 3rd party application to take the screenshot. The system's screenshot feature will not. I use Snapz Pro X which takes screenshots, video screenshots, etc. But it's a little pricey. Go to VersionTracker.com and do a search for screenshot. You'll find a number of canididates that you can demo and see which will do the job for you.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
NOTE: iPhoto 8's new option in the library rebuild pane, "Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" may make this tip obsolete. We'll know when users have occasion to use it and see if that's the case.

HT1209 I've successfully imported the videos I've shot with my iphone5 into iphoto on my MacBookPro but they're only showing up as still shots, ie the imported videos don't play! Itunes no longer opens automatically when syncing!

I've successfully imported the videos I've shot with my iphone5 into iphoto on my MacBookPro but they're only showing up as still shots, ie the imported videos don't play! Itunes no longer opens automatically when syncing, and when I open itunes it shows that there are zero "home movies" in there, meaning that it never grabbed the videos from my phone either. What to do? Thanks!

tl:dr?
Really?
There was a short version expressly for people who weren't bothered to read a myriad of text.
Meh, not that it matters anymore. I ended up redownloading 70-odd albums, so I have the bulk of my music back. And I still have no idea what iTunes did with my files, but I'll make sure it never does it again.
I would thank you for the help but you were utterly useless. Oh well, carry on.

I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file

I cant seem to open some photos on Iphoto. I downloaded like 3 months ago from my phone into the iphoto. I could access ALL of my photos back then but when I try and access them now I cant seem to open the file. When i open iphoto and open the folder thats on it, i can see ALL the photos that are there but when I click on different ones some appear in the larger screen but A LOT of them dont appear. Iphoto seems to have erased the file or I dont know.
Also I tried clicking on the photo that doesnt appear and making it "Reveal it on finder" - "original file" and it says 'The operation can’t be completed because the item can’t be found.".
I really want those photos because they involve a really special family vacation, please help me find those photos

A LOT of them dont appear.
What do you see in the window when you click on those? A blank, black window? An exclamation mark? What?

What is the best way to import pictures from Lightroom 5 into FCP X

What is the best way to transfer pictures from Lightroom 5 into Final Cut Pro X?

There is no one best way. If, for instance, you want to be able to zoom into the picture with a Ken Burns effect then you may want to save out a very high res version that will be larger than your video resolution. Just use Lightroom to export a jpg file wherever you want it. You could export it into the Events folder and then choose not to copy it when you import it within FCPx. You could import the picture into iPhoto and then access it directly from within FCPx. Those are two simple, "regular" ways to get it into FCPx but if you are not going to Ken Burns the image by zooming into it and such you will want to crop it in Lightroom to the same size you will be using ie if you are making 720HD video then crop the image to that size and proportion before you export it from Lightroom.

Audio from dvd imported into iMovie

I don't know alot about any of this but here goes....my daughter went skydiviing and had it video taped with sound of course. The videographer added music to the DVD of the skydive. I got it into iMovie (I want to edit and get some still shots from it) but the sound is very low. I've got the clip control up to 150%, and my computer volume control on the key board is all the way up. First question: what else can I do to help volume? Second question: Is there a way to seperate the original sound of the video from the music that was added to the DVD? The music overpowers the converstion.
I have iMovie HD (6.0.3), Streamclip, and QuickTime MPEG2 if these would be helpful. Thank You

+On the volume issue, if you can extract the audio from the clip, and then make several copies of the audio clip, overlaying them one on top of the other in your iMovie project, that might boost the volume.+
Yes, but that would not separate out the music from the sound she wants to hear over the music.

Import package from one project into another

Hello everyone,
I have some projects.
An enterprise and war project created in netbeans.
I would like to use some files from one project to another. when I import
the package I get the error-
'package x does not exist'
I have added the package to the project but I still get the error.
I have also added the project to import to my glasspath but still.
E.g.
set classpath
.;c:\enterpriseA;
My next idea is to create a war project into my enterprise project and copy the files
from the war project into it in order to use it. But I'm sure there is a better way.
THanking you in advance.
eve

One mistake I keep making is that I don't add the package to the
Dependencies of the plugin I'm writing. You have to go to plugin.xml,
and add the package you depend on to the Dependencies section. Maybe you
didn't do this?

How do I convert a document into a jpeg?

How do I convert a Word document into a jpeg?

Hi there
You cannot directly open a Word document in Photoshop, nor can you save a .jpeg in Microsoft Word. A work around for this is to save the document as a PDF, which will allow you to open it in Photoshop:
1. Open your document in Microsoft Word. Select File > Save As... and select PDF from the Format dropdown menu.
2. Open Photoshop and go to File > Open... and select your newly created PDF file. An Import PDF dialog box will pop up. From the "Crop To" dropdown menu, select Media Box. This will prevent Photoshop from cropping your document size down to just the text area. Click OK.
3. Now, you can select File > Save As..., and select JPEG from the Format dropdown menu.
A quick note, when I opened the PDF in Photoshop, there was a transparent background behind my text. To solve this, just create a new fill layer by going to Layer > New Fill Layer > Solid Color... and selecting white. Then just drag this fill layer below the layer with your text on it. This layer will flatten when you save your image as a jpeg.
Hope this was helpful!
