Mouse flickers after encoding. Shifts. Lags. Viewer and timeline.

After encoding, noticed that the mouse cursor flickers while watching the encoding in FCP 7 viewer. Parts of the encoding had jerky motions. A previous time, this led to color shifts and other anomolies in the canvas, which disappeared after a cold boot.
Used uncompressed 8-bit PAL codec (yes, we're in SD), but I think that another time it occurred after encoding an M2V file.
Today once the FCP viewer with the encoding was closed, the mouse stopped flickering.
This is the second or third time I have had this with or after encodings over the past several months.
Sorry for the lack of detail. I have not troubleshot this carefully. I don't know exactly where or even if the encoding is actually damaged. The previous time, it became worse the longer the machine stayed on. That time, even the timeline in FCP had the same problem, and it seemed like the sequence had been seriously damaged, but later after a cold restart, there was no damage to the timeline.
All latest updates on FCP 7 and OSX on Macpro with early 2009 2.26 quadcore. 8gb ram. Minimum of additional software. Minimum internet use on that machine. Running five LaCies on FW800, four are daisy chained.

After using shift command 4 and send to desktop,how can I had iphoto to the list "open With" to preview menu?

After using shift command 4 to send a photo to the desktop, how can I add iphoto to the list of"open with" menu ?

All that's doing is forcing iPhoto to import the image. Dragging it to the iPhoto icon will do the same, or create an automator action and save it as a Contextual menu item.

Color shift between viewer and browser after pro kit update

hi there,
i thought i be one of the lucky guys since updating and running 3.0.1 was easy on my system. but after yesterdays pro kit update i experience a weird color shift between the look of pictures in the browser and viewer.
there is a strong colorshift in orange parts of sundown pictures. they turn magenta in the viewer but stay orange in the browser. the difference can easily be seen in the split screen. even weirder if i export a picture from the vier/split screen the exported files show the magenta tint. if i export them from the browser, they have the "right" orange tint.
this happens with raw-files from both d200 and d70. also exportet the raw and processed it with ps cs3 and everything was ok. anyone got a clue?
thanx in advance

just found the explanation. after my prokit update, all raw-files needed to be reprocessed and then i needed to select the standard apple camera module for the d200. that was quite tricky and i don't understand why something like this happens. why do all files need to be reprocessed and than afterwards you would have to manually select the apple standard converter and why did the viewer look different than the browser and why is there no warning module that tell you all files will have to be reprocessed?

How to encode multiple camera views and display them separately on the same page

Does any one know if this is possible with just one
encoder/streaming server or would you need multiple encoders to
send separate views?

Hello after a long time.

Screen flickering after iOS 6.1 update and some apps crashing frequently on my iPhone 4 .. I didn't have this in 6.0.1 back when people complained about it

hello, I had no keyboard flickering issues back when my iPhone 4 was on iOS 6.0.1 then I updated to 6.1 yesterday and now I have apps crashing frequently and keyboard flickering? anyone else having the same issue after the update? any known solution?

I'm having the same issue on my iPhone 4 since yesterday when I updated to iOS 6.1 from 5.1.1.
After about an hour after the upgrade, it crashed/rebooted itself and went completely white/grey screen with a brighter white line in the middle. My power/sleep button was broke already, so I couldn't do anything on it. I left it to drain the battery for about 6 hours. During that time, the edges around the white/grey screen became darker and darker like burn-in effect. After it ran out of the battery, I connected the phone to the PC through USB and iTunes let me restore it to iOS 6.1 firmware I downloaded before.
The restore was successful, but the entire screen keeps flickering rapidly, not just a part of the screen.
Is it hardware or software related issue?? Any idea?

Duration difference between viewer and timeline after insertion or overwrit

Reopened project from last week and now when I try to put in a new scene, the duration I give in the viewer changes in the timeline.
i.e. - I overwrite in a 17 frame scene and it becomes a 21 frame scene in the timeline.
All worked well last week, Any ideas?

People have very short attention spans these days. Someday the government will have to put Ritalin in the water supply.
I think I have found my own answer.
The clips that were causing problems were captured at a different frame rate than the timeline.
I didn't do the capture but it is my best guess so far.
I am cutting together movie promos for a television station. Some are off of DVD and some are off of tape.

Calibrate viewer and timeline

The frame seen in the viewer does not match the frame where the playhead is on the timeline. I searched the manual for calibration and don't see it ...
On my system, the two windows are off by a fair number of frames. It makes it irritating when trying to set a transition. Especially when the next scene is not wanted in the transition. In earlier versions of FCP, I'd make a freeze frame to give enough frames for the fade-in or -out of a transition ...
this is driving me crazy! Surely when the timline is set all the way to single frame zoom, the viewer window should show the same frame.

So, I should trim the selection as I see the frames in the timeline? and then add the freeze frame to provide transition handles?
When I tried to control the transition yesterday (simple fade in-fade out), I could not control exactly where the center point (end of outgoing clip/beginning of incoming clip) and that viewer window was always showing it with other media in there.
Today I saw a question along the lines of my question and it seemed that he found it was the QT movie fps that was making the problem. --that the "break" between scenes does not occur at that gop group point (if I have my understanding in place) ... If that is true, perhaps I can insert the freeze frame so that my selection breaks at the proper frame point.
I saw the subclip suggestion after I had posted my query ... maybe it was for prior versions, I don't remember. It came up in the little side menu of suggestions of similar questions.

Keep google map marker after leaving for another view

I'm creating a mobile app which displays a google map. You can enter address and put a marker on the map. The problem is when I leave for another view and come back to the original view, that marker is deleted. Is there a way to keep that marker after leaving for another view and coming back to the original view? The easiest solution can be using database, but I do not like to use database if possible.
onMapReady(event) is implemented:
protected function onMapReady(event:Event):void {
        map.setMapType(MapType.PHYSICAL_MAP_TYPE);
        map.addEventListener(TransformGestureEvent.GESTURE_ZOOM,pinchZoom);
        if(Geolocation.isSupported){
          zoomLevel = 12;
          geo = new Geolocation();
          geo.setRequestedUpdateInterval(50);
          geo.addEventListener(GeolocationEvent.UPDATE,onGeoUpdate);
          geocoder = new ClientGeocoder();
          geocoder.addEventListener(GeocodingEvent.GEOCODING_SUCCESS, onGeocodingSuccess);
          geocoder.addEventListener(GeocodingEvent.GEOCODING_FAILURE, onGeocodingFailuer);
Any help is apprciated.

Hi Gsaison,
Do you have any progress on these issues? Im working on the same solution right now (SWV + GoogleMaps JS v3 ) I've got some weird issue when i try to spawn a StageWebView inside a View on IOS, it appears inside a scroller and is not open for finger interaction anymore. I use the eskimo framework, but then again, nothing fancy going on there for the rest. I've tried all of the the stage.stageScaleMode options but non of them work. Got any help?
Kind regards,
Roy

Slight Color and Quality Shift when viewing RAW files for first time in Library Module.

Hello,
I have been shooting RAW for a while and have notice that after I import the images and then start to view them in the Library Module I will see a slight color and quality shift - almost looks like a white balance shift but not quite.   I was thinking that perhaps there was some automatic preset being applied but I don't have any presets at all.
I am shooting with a Canon 1DX as well as 7D. I have not checked to see if I get this situation with the 7D, but I know for sure that I get it with the 1DX.
Today I was reviewing some images in Bridge and decided to open one of them in Camera RAW.   At that time I discovered that the camera's Image Style Settings were available, Faithful, Standard, Portrait, etc. I noticed that the images did not have one of the camera styles applied to them but rather the Adobe Standard Style. At that point from within RAW I selected one of the camera's styles and bingo thats the kind of shift I am seeing when I first view an image in LR4 Library.
So as far as I can tell the RAW images are getting the Adobe Standard style applied in LR.   I have no idea if this is a default behavior of if I have done something to cause it. I'm also thinking that perhaps LR does not necessarily apply the Camera's Styles automatically even though the particular style has been set in the camera -- perhaps is not imported as part of the metadata during the import and thus defaults to the Adobe Standard.
I guess what I need to know is a few things and I hope someone can educate this newbie!
1. Should I expect LR4 to apply the Style as set from the camera automatically or not at all?
2. Can I prevent LR from applying the Adobe Standard Style and apply no style?
3. Can I cause LR to apply the Style as set in the camera for the particular image to be appied automatically upon import?
Thank you for any guidenace you can offer. Of course if you need additional information or clarification please let me know.
Scott

That sort of describes it and may be exactly what is happening. I have a shoot tonight and will pay closer attention to the process and behavior when I import.
It is the full image that I see the shift on though. Its not that the thumbnail and the full size image look different. It the full size image looking one way and then shifting in front of my eyes.
What is frustrating is that I typically find that the image before the shift is better than what appears after the shift, so I find myself always chasing to get back to where it was and because its gone I'm chasing an invisible ideal, so to speak.   Ahhh...isnt that the life of a photographer though!
It seems like its the last step in the render process -- if I could just figure out what it is and stop it I could finally figure out if I really care or not. Its just so quick its tough to tell if indeed the first appearance is better.
I'll feedback some more information when I get a better handle on this.
Thanks for the reference.

Mouse pointer lag (trackpad and mouse)

Hi all,
I recently purchased a MacBookPro 13 inch for my work. It's the i7 version wth 8 gig of ram with mountain lion installed.
I have some major problems with both my mouse and my trackpad. The cursor has a lot of lag, it kind of make stutter and jumps. I tried multipe input devices and also on different computers. First I thought it was the mouse, but even the trackpad has the same problem! Should I bring back my laptop? I can't work like this.
I figured out that whenever there is some IO happening, the lagging will get worse. I tried a wireless mouse, wired mouse . . . nothing helped.
Anyone here got a solution?
Thanks

I have the same problem on my iMac using a usb wired mouse. The mouse worked fine with Lion, but the pointer is "sticky" with Mountain Lion. Seems to work fine for a while after a reboot or unplug/plug cycle of the mouse, but after a day or so the problem returns. I have been searching here for a solution, but have found none yet. Sounds like a software issue that Apple needs to find and fix.
Otherwise, have to treat my Mac like a Windows machine and do a daily preventive reboot...

After updated software on mac mini with os x 10.7.5 and restart the mouse pointer after about 30 sec. converted to the rainbow wheel and I can't control the computer.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in safe mode.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
for k in /Sy*/L*/Ex*/{,.?}*.kext; do test -f "$k/Contents/Info.plist" && /usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Print :CFBundleIdentifier" "$_" | egrep -qv "apple|Accusys|ArcMSR|ATTO|CalDigit|HighPoint|hp-fax|JMicron|print|SoftRAID|stex" && echo $k; done | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook | open -f -a TextEdit
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
Repeat with this line:
ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 4
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Remember, Steps 1-4 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.

Mouse flickers on remote viewed workstation

Workstations are winXPsp2, using ZfD7sp1IR1--when remote viewing the
workstations the mouse cursor on the workstation being viewed flickers. If
set to poll full screen it flickers about once a second. If set to normal
refresh, and the target workstation is viewing a rapidly changing screen
(like an online game) the mouse flickers constantly. Is there a way to
overcome this problem? Thank you--Chris G

Firefox won't open PDF files after I removed older version of PDF-xChange Viewer and installed the lastest version of PDF-xChange Viewer. MS Explorer which I am now force to use works OK. I have checked the Applications window in Tools/Options and it l

Firefox no longer opens PDF files. Explorer works OK. I have checked the Applications window in the Tools/Options and it says I am using PDF-xChange viewer....It just does not do anything. I get the message in the Download Error window which says...."could not be saved, because you cannot change the contents of that folder. Is the same error which I get when I attempt to open a PDF file on a webpage using the Firefox browser....Explorer works OK so I am now forced to Explorer to read PDF files via a browser.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After removing a old copy of PDF-xChange Viewer and updating to the last version

The error message suggests that the file (pdf) that you're trying to download cannot be saved in the folder Firefox tries to save it in.
This can be due to several things - it could be a non-existing folder (could be a problem with the updated application), the hard drive could be too full to store the file (less likely if you can generally surf the net without error messages) or it could contain an error.
To complicate things a little further, it seems to me that you have (at least) 3 different PDF-handling plugins in Firefox from different programs:
PDF-XChange Viewer Netscape Gecko Plugin
Adobe PDF Plug-In For Firefox and Netscape "9.3.2"
Zeon PDF Plugin For Mozilla
This shouldn't matter too much, thou, as it will most likely simply use either the latest installed or the first one it finds when looking up associations for files of type 'pdf'.
First, in Tools > Options... > tab General > section File download, select "Save files in" and Browse your way to a (non-writeprotected!) folder on a drive where you're certain there is enough free space - like the Desktop folder to make the files end up on your Windows desktop.
Second, under Applications as you mention yourself, find all document types related to PDF files, and set these to one of the programs. Check the entire list to be sure there isn't one hiding under one of the other programs' document types (Adobe Acrobat document, PDF X-Change and Zeon).
Restart Firefox, and try opening a PDF again.
If it fails once more, try changing the documents again to one of the other programs, like "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)".
If it STILL fails, change it to simply "Save file". Then you can simply browse your way to the download folder with Windows Explorer, and doubleclick the PDF file to see which program actually handles PDF files as default on the machine, and if it works properly.
If Firefox flatly refuses to save the PDF files in a folder which you're certain both exist and has space for the file, some (probably security related) program is most likely interfering with Firefox, preventing it in storing PDF files on the system.
