Motion 5 - Transitions with breaks in the video content? How?

I hope someone can help with this. I am trying to create a transition between two clips which while transitioning will show a text frame ot introduce the next video. I want it to break the flow between the videos. When I create the transition in Motion 5 I have assembled all the elements, made transition A last for 2 seconds, there is a 6 second gap then as the camera pans to the text element and then across to Transition B which itself then runs for 2 seconds.
This is how i designed it, it works fine in Motion and looks how I want it. However when I export to Final Cut and use in a project it creates the transition but it ignores the break i put between content A and content B. Instead I get 5 second tail out of Clip A and 5 seconds lead in on Clip B. Its driving me mad as I want both feeds to go quiet and do nothing while the text displays.
Does anyone know how I can get FCP to recognise the break I have put in Motion and therefore only tail each clip for 2 seconds not the entire duration of the transition?
If this cant bedone, how could I best acheive what im trying to do?
Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Try this first:
Select the Project "layer" and in the Inspector > Properties select Override FCP. This will "force" fcpx to use the timing you designated for your project as the length to use for the transition. Otherwise, FCPX uses the length you have set in fcpx preferences.

Problem with Cross Dissolve: The video cuts out during the transistion

I'm encountering a problem with the Cross Dissolve transistion wherein during the period in which the transition should be happening the video instead drops out. There's plenty of heads and tails available on both clips, but as soon as the timeline hits the start of the transition "from' clip cuts out, revealing the background or black if there's no background underneath and then the "go-to" clip cuts in at the end of the transition.
Any help would be appreciated.

I've been having this issue and it's driving me crazy. It's random, that some cross dissolves work, and others don't. Seems to affect AVCHD footage. Adobe seems to be aware of the issue.
The work around that I've seen posted by a forum user "Mitch W" is to apply a GPU accelerated effect to one of the clips in the pair. The effect can be turned to "0" so as not to alter the video. The act of doing this, makes premiere see the clip differently, and render the cross dissolve correctly.
Fast Blur, set to "zero", seems to do the trick, and allows it to work with CUDA acceleration turned on. I did notice that the work around was broken by changing the playback resolution in the viewer window. In that situation, I had to apply the GPU effect to the other clip in the pair to make it work again.
I don't know what will happen if I change my playback resolution again...

I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video. When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)?

I have a keynote presentation that includes a significant amount of video. When I edit the keynote slides (not the video slides) how can I save the changes without re-saving the videos (because that takes a VERY long time)? I edit the presentation depending on the audience to which I am presenting.

If you add a new slide with just a text box (therefore a very small amount of data), to an existing presentation then save, Keynote will only save the new content to the file, it wont save pre-existing content as its already included in the file.
The time taken to "save" will be very much shorter than a "save as" when all of the existing content is saved again.

Premiere Pro is not reading all of the video content in my AVCHD clip. I know this because my computer plays all of the content through Preview, so the information is on the card. How do I get Premiere to read all of the content?

First, AVCHD isn't just "one" clip, it splits the video & audio into several files each per clip, typically with randomly generated names. The only way they "play" correctly is if the software doing so is able to read from the data file ...in a different folder ... the information that X clip is actually A, B, D, #@, and 456 video clips and TR, #r54, and ert$%4 audio clips. The next "clip" is ... and on and on. So both rapid access to the video files AND that database file are necessary to play the files back, or do anything else with them.
VLC is a fairly decent but simple playback tool. It's nowhere near as complicated nor demanding in its "relationship" with those clips as an NLE like PrPro, which will be trying to do more reading & writing.
Further, many of the preferences in PrPro are natively set so that it writes project, cache, preview, & database files next to the footage. So ... if it doesn't have both a fast enough connection with the data AND space for putting all of it's own stuff there, it tells you it can't work the file.
Therefore ... the need to have the complete data from the card in the exact same folder structure it was in ON the card copied to a "local" hard drive.

Contact Apple and request a 10.4 or possibly a 10.5 distribution disk for this system, if you've not obtained that DVD disk from the seller.
Boot and use that distribution disk to wipe the hard disk via Disk Utility, and to then reinstall OS X.
Best to start with a fresh installation of OS X, as that'll provide the default environment and not something that's been customized and extended by the previous owner.
The last OS X version that was supported for most PowerMac G5 systems was 10.5.8, and that would be preferable — if your Mac supports that.
If you're not sure which Mac you have, then use the  > About This Mac from the menu and request more information on the system. You're looking for a model number listed there, and that'd be something like PowerMac7,3 or PowerMac11,2 for a ~2005-vintage PowerMac system. Whatever model number you have can then be used to determine the general specs for the configuration, and what the last version of OS X that was supported for the system.

When I connect my digital camera to my iPad it will only download the stills, not the videos. How can I download the videos? I have the USB and HDMI connectors for the iPad.

When I connect my Leica digital camera to my iPad it will only download the photos not the videos. How can I download the videos anyone please?

If your camera has an SD memory card, use the camera connection kit & the SD card to download to the iPad. That's what I do.
Another way that will work. Download the video(s) to your computer. Then you can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
First, Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie file into the folder. The movie file must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie file should appear & you can import.

Hi someone, I went to muse theme and browse widgets to find the toolbox 024 of google language translator, i saw the video explaining how to manage the widgets but now, where can i found it to include it in my website because the french version of muse don't have several free widgets for people like me who pay every month the application.Thanks

I'm not aware of a free translator widget.
I found these...
Website Translator
Translator Widget $6.99 for the widget
Adobe Muse TB024 Widget | MuseThemes.com $69/year Includes everything | I signed up for this and it's been well worth it, they have new themes & widgets every month.

Um... that does not contain "duplicates".

Very recently, my computer stopped opening quicktime when I click on a video clip in iphoto, Its quicktime X, and it works to play videos if I open quicktime and then search for the video. How do I go back to quicktime automatically launching from iphoto?

Well since I do not have iPhoto 7 I can only guess what may be: As far I can remember up to iPhoto 8, iPhoto insisted on Quick Time Player 7. As I can see you have Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) and there Quick Time X is the standard playaer. Basically Quick Time 7 is not part of Snow Leopard.
Can you please check if Quick Time 7 is installed under Applications->Utilitis (in 10.6 Quick Time 7 if presenet is installed not under Applications - there Quick Time X is - but under Application/Utilities).
If not: insert your Snow Leopard installation DVD.
Once the installer opens, double-click on the Optional Installs folder
Double-click the Optional Installs.mpkg package
Click continue.
Select the option for QuickTime 7 then click Continue to start the installation.
If it is there you may try to move the iPhoto prefernce file to another folder and let iPhoto create a new one.
Please keep the old file until you are sure that iPhoto works how it should.
The iPhoto preference file can be found under your home folder then Library then Preferences and there
com.apple.iPhoto.plist
As alraedy mentioned do not delet this file, since if something goes wrong you can put it back.

Am in Europe (UK) with iPad. Comput er(Mac) at home. Bandought videos and iCloud storage, but still can not download all the videos. How can I get them to store in the cloud and come out a gain to my iPad? Need something to watch at night,etc. tx

Hi all. I. Bought videos from iTunes and also bought the lowest amount of extra iCloud storage. I assumed the videos could be stored in the cloud and called back automatically to the iPad when I needed them. They won't all download, Apple hasn't answered my call for help via e mail, and I don't know what to do. I deleted stuff from the iPad and got rid of some of the videos I'm not watching (hoping to maybe download them again later on).
I don't get how the Cloud works, and I don't really know which article to read for info. HELP?
thanks,
Isabella

Not all video is available for redownload.
Purchasing more icloud storage has nothing to do with itunes purchases.
Itunes purchases ( the ones that are made available for redownload) are automatically available in icloud. you do not have to purchase any icould storage for this.
You should not delete anything. you should always have a backup copy.
Movies are only available for redownload in the U.S:
Learn more about which content types are supported for iTunes in the Cloud by country, as well as where iTunes Match is available.

How do I get ym video to work with Lion? The video button is greyed out.

I thought this was supposed to be an automatic thing but I can't seem to get the video portion of ym to work with ichat. Any suggestions are appreciated. I am using Lion.

I kind of have the opposite problem. I need to know how to turn off my remote on the computer. I am using the remote for my Apple TV and it keeps making the volume on my Computer go up and down (with annoying sounds).
There used to be a way to un-sync the remote with the comp but I cannot remember how and the Apple help is not much help! I have Lion.
Thanks!
Best,

How to play with part of the video.??

I mean that how can I separate the video to several parts,(maybe 2 frames to one part). and then How to play one part of them with JMF.
I want to use this to implement the p2p system. If I can solove there two issues, I think I can use some routing arithmetic to transfer some parts to peers. The peer with one thread just play the current frame, and create another one to download the following parts.
could you guys suggest me ??

Yeah, I do p2p with jmf.
In p2p system, the souce of video send the parts to the network(earch part has a UID,such as 1,2,3,4,5...), and the other computers receive some of them.(the parts must can play continuously) .And in the memery of each computer have a buffer to download the following parts from the network, not from the source.
In this way, some peers of the network can communicate.For example,
Peer A have the 1st ,3rd,5th parts,and Peer B have the 2nd,4th parts.
When A paly the 1st part, at the same A download from B the 2nd part, Then A can play in turn. In the same way B can download the 3rd part from A.
Maybe my way is not right, do you have another way to implement the p2p, or the materail about it.
Waiting for your replay....

Embedded video is black but with audio, but the video works fine on youtube.

I'm having trouble with firefox not been able to display embedded video on sites.
I see the preview image but when i start play all video area becomes black and I can hear the audio playing. I also can pause the "video".
If I start firefox in safe mode, it works.
I have deactivated all my extensions/add-ons, without any success.
I have reset all cache, no success
I have restored to factory result, no success
I have uninstalled firefox, and deleting all local data and reinstalled firefox, still same problems.
I have tested to go to http://www.youtube.com/html5 and activated the html5 player, and then I see the play button, progressbar and volume etc, but still no video.
The video is working fine in IE 9 and Chrome (unknown version, but since it autoupdates it's probably the latest)

Full load with breaking down the loads in particular range - any progrom?

Hello all,
We are trying to do the first full load to our BW production system. We are doing Full load and then we are going to do the Init without data transfer to get the delta going.
The full load is so big that we have to break down the loads by particular ranges, we have done it once previosuly by creating 30 infopackages and typing the consecutive ranges in the Infopackages selection criteria.
I am just wondering, is there any other way we can do it which is much more easier, any code or program rather than having to create so many Infopackages and stuff.
Please help with any suggestions/advice.
Thanks in advance,

Hello sasi,
i am planning to use process chain, but what I am doing is since the load is so big I am putting range in the data selection of each infopackage (e.g. STNUMBER = 1000000000 to 1000005000) and there are such infopackages which gets the range in increasing order of 5000. (e.g. second infopackage will be STNUMBER = 1000005001 to 1000010000)
So I was wondering if there was easy way to do this instead of creating like this 30 infopackages manually and putting them in process chain.
anymore suggestions
Thanks
