Moving playhead frame by frame

Everything is in the title. I've done some changes in the keyboard settings and can't find the way to move the playhaed frame by frame with the left and right arrow keys... The arrows are currently locked on moving from an edit to another.
Could you help me with that.
Thanks a lot.

Hello, Thank you for your answer.
The timaline is of course selected, I've restarted and i am not able to type the arrow key in the searching tool of the keyboard shortcuts....
Actually, I would need to find the "Adobe name" for this move... But I can't find it in the shortcuts...
Any other idea?
Thanks in advance.

  • Moving playhead in 10 frame increments

    I'm pretty such this can be done, but I forget how.
    If I want to move my timeline (or viewer) playhead ahead 10 frames every time
    I hit the right arrow, how is that accomplished?
    Thanks.

    Hi:
    Read this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3589910&#3589910
    AFAIK you cannot program the arrow keys to jump that way . . . but I'm still learning.

  • Script for moving playhead to last frame, then exporting jpg?

    Hi,
    I have a lot of Flash files for which I need to export jpgs of their last frame. Could a kind soul out there guide me on how to write a command for moving the timeline's playhead to the last frame, then exporting a jpg (at Full Document Size, 72 dpi, 96% quality)?
    A million thanks,
    Kevin

    private function snapshotLastFrame():void
    gotoAndStop( this.totalFrames );
    _bitmapData                         = new BitmapData( stage.stageWidth, stage.stageHeight );
    _bitmap                              = new Bitmap( _bitmapData );
    _bitmapData.draw ( stage );
    saveImageJPG( _bitmapData, "test.jpg", 96 );
    public function saveImageJPG( bitmapData:BitmapData, fileName:String, quality:int ):void {
                this.jpgEncoder = new JPGEncoder( quality );
                this.fileReference = new FileReference();
                this.fileReference.save( this.jpgEncoder.encode( bitmapData ), fileName + ".jpg" );
    Keep in mind that you need a few extra libraries to be able to create a jpeg.. (AS3CoreLib) can be found at googleCode.

  • No audio playback when moving playhead frame by frame

    FCP version: 5.0
    Machine: Macbook
    When I use the keyboard arrows to move the playhead forward frame by frame, I'm not hearing any audio. Even the audio level meter doesn't seem to move
    But when I play the timeline normally, the audio is there, and the audio level meter starts moving again.
    I normally use this to find the very start of a person's speech, but without the audio, it's quite hard to put a cut in right at the first word that a person says.
    What can I do to hear the audio when I move the arrow keys?

    Press shift and S keys to turn on "Audio Scrubbing".

  • How to adjust the playhead frame by frame instead of bar and beat?

    I'm doing the dubbing in Logic Pro 9.1.1, the video is 24 frame per second.
    The playhead always moves by bar and beat, not frame by frame when I use Euphonix MC Control shuttle/jog wheel.
    Is there any way to adjust the playhead frame by frame?

    In your *Key Commands List* (option-K) you will find the commands *Rewind one frame* and *Forward one frame* - just assign keycombo's to those two commands.

  • K/L frame-by-frame moving not working

    Hi all. Normally I can move frame by frame through the timeline by holding K while pressing L or J. But now whenever I press L or J when holding K it plays at normal speed, as though I pressed L/J without holding K. Must have changed a setting somewhere but can't figure out where. Anyone know how to fix?

    Yes, David, I'm having the same problem under the same circumstances. we're using merged clips made from Prores QTs and multitrk BWF files. In the trim window, the display frame jumps ahead considerably in a frame-by-frame trim, but trims accurately in the timeline. My only work-around has been to use the left/right scrub arrows in the trim window when necessary, which displays the correct frame. Sorry not to have an answer, but I saw a post on another forum from 2007 that speculated it was an FCP 6 bug. Resetting prefs doesn't help.

  • Frame By Frame Image Moving

    In iMovie '11, I have a video with an image in it, is there a way I can edit this image frame by frame movement?

    I don't fully understand your question, but if you are asking if you can edit to the frame level, the answer is yes.
    First, go to iMovie/Preferences and put a check mark in "Display Time as hh:mm:seconds:frames". This lets you edit to the frame level, rather than to the tenth of a second.
    Next, you can make it easier to select individual frames by setting the project thumbnail slider to 1/2 second.

  • Audio Playback Frame by Frame - Enabling & Disabling

    Hello,
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Initial searching has been fruitless.
    Using Final Cut Pro 5.0.4
    I have managed to somehow disable audio playback when moving the playhead frame by frame & when scrubbing through.
    This occurs both in Viewer window & when clip is on the timeline.
    The audio meter also doesn't register/update any change.
    Many thanks.

    Fred:
    Check View > Audio Scrubbing or SHIFT+S.
    Hope that helps !

  • Trouble moving playhead along timeline

    Hi,
    I apologize if this questions has already been asked and answered. I tried searching through the Flash forum and was unable to find the answer I was looking for.
    I am very new to Flash and apologize for the simplicity of the question, but I am having trouble moving the playhead along the timeline in Flash. For example, when I open up a new Flash project, and start out with the initial layer with it’s single frame, I am having trouble moving the playhead forward to frame i.g. "75" or "80". My questions is, can I not move the playhead because I do not have content past frame one or can I not move the playhead because I have accidentally initiated a button or action that will only allow me to scrub my playhead through frames with content. On the off chance I had done this, I tried restarting Flash with the default settings with no success. Again, I realize this may be a very simple question and I am hoping the answer will be the same.

    when you're in the authoring environment, you need a frame to exist at 75 or 80 before you can move the play head there.  so, right click frame 75 and click insert frame or insert keyframe or insert blank keyframe.

  • For character animation is frame by frame, motion or classic tween?

    Hi, i'm very new to adobe flash. I'm using cs5
    Am i right in thinking that for detailed character animation, of cartoons or people, i would still need to do frame by frame animation, and then probably use tweening for big movements like making that same animation move across the screen?
    Your responses would be appreciated.

    I am not an animator (most of the time) but if I were I think I would probably end up using timeline tweening wherever it helped make things easier, especially for what you are calling big movements like having things zoom or move or to have a background moving if the animation involves characters moving.

  • Advance frame-by-frame on a streaming video

    Hi,
    i've recently installed Wowza media server 2 locally, currently only for testing purposes.
    everything works fine, except of accurate seeking functionality - or in other words advancing frame-by-frame .
    when i use VLC to play my video file i have no problems advancing frame-by-frame.  however, when i use the 'seek()' function to move the playhead a fraction of a second, its seems to move only to the next key frame (meaning that only once every few mouse clicks the playhead advances dramatically).
    i thought that when using streaming video (unlike progressive download) this issue is resolved.  am i wrong?  did i miss something?
    thanks in advance,
    eRez

    II think you should post your query on Wowza forums - because this forum is for Flash Media Server and probably not best place where you can find Wowza server experts.

  • Option of viewing a video frame by frame

    Hi,
    I wanted to view a video frame by frame using JMF ( I wanted to include an option for the user either to view it frame by frame wherever necessary or just play it normally). I have seen programs in this forum for extracting the frame images of the video and saving them. But I just wanted to view them frame by frame while the video plays. When I run the program FrameAccess.java, I can see the status bar of the video moving but I cannot see the video or frames ( I just get a pink color frame). What should I do?

  • Acheiving frame by frame in videos.

    Hi all, I'm trying to achieve true frame by frame but have
    run into some problems.
    To do this I have been changing the VideoDisplay and
    VideoPlayer classes. This is an AIR app set to 99 fps, and I'm
    getting an actual framerate of around 88. I have encoded videos
    into flv's using Flash CS3 Video Encoder being sure to set
    keyframes to every frame and have varied the framerate from 10 to
    30 and the video data rate too.
    When going frame by frame I have the video in a paused state.
    On click of a button the video will seek to the next keyframe
    (which should be the next actual frame). As an example, using this
    method I can only actually get an average of 19 frames in a second
    for a video encoded at 24 fps when the data rate is 2K kbs (data
    rates higher or lower will only allow me to get as low as 10 frames
    in a second). The video metadata confirms that the video is 24fps.
    I also tried a play/pause method where I perform a check
    every time the enterFrame event is dispatched by the videoPlayer (I
    get more frequent updates from this than setting the
    playheadUpdateInterval value really low) and pause if the playhead
    has advanced. My event handler gets called about 88 times a second,
    consistent with the framerate. With a 24fps video, we would expect
    the playheadTime of the video (which is == ns.time of the NetStream
    object) increase by intervals of 1000/24 = 41.667 milliseconds. But
    when I play the video and store all the playheadTime values in an
    array, I see it sometimes goes up by 14 ms, or 52ms to name a
    couple (and still get about 19 frames in a second).
    Interestingly, the playheadTimes are not always consistent.
    On one run I saw the playheadTime go from 9.9s, to 9.978, 10.109,
    to 10.135. Another time the playheadTime went from 9.9s to 10.057,
    10.109, 10.135. So we gained a frame at 10.057 but the one at 9.978
    was not "found". After a few more runs I saw that the playhead also
    reached 9.952s, and 10.031s. So consider: 9.900, 9.952, 9.978,
    10.031, 10.057, 10.109, 10.135. This range has playhead increments
    of 52ms, 26ms, 53ms, 26ms, 52ms, 26ms.
    So the playhead increments are not consistent. That's fine.
    But the playheadTime times themselves do not always exist, or the
    Video.as class is not reading the .flv file consistently, or the
    NetStream class is not updating the time property correctly,
    or.....? Unfortunately Video.as is an intrinsic Flash class and I
    don't have access to it, nor do I have access to NetStream.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Or see something I missed?
    Any help on this would be greatly appreciated as I've kind of
    burned out on getting this to work. Thanks.

    Yes I would like to be able to do this again. Can itunes use Quicktime 7 as its video player?

  • Photo shop and frame by frame touch up

    Hi Group:
    I am using FCP and would like to touch about about 5 seconds of video using photo shop. Can anyone outline the steps.
    I have done the following>
    Open Photo shop.
    Click import (Frame by frame)
    Select the video from the browser
    picked a frame and made changes
    this is where I get stuck ...........how do I save it so that the frame gets saved directly in the video. As opposed to a still frame that is kept separate from the video?
    What is the most efficient way to do touch up in photo shop?
    JIm

    Once you import a frame of video into Photoshop, it is no longer video, but a still image. The method I'm familiar with is to set an IN and OUT point in FCP's Timeline for the portion of the clip that you need to touch up. Next, export that section as an Image Sequence. Specify the file type and other options (use a non-compressed format for best results - not jpg), then export to the location you specify. Open the images in Photoshop and do the touch up work. If there isn't much movement from image to image, you may be able to record actions to automate some of the work.
    When you're done in Photoshop, launch FCP and set the Still Image Duration in FCP's preferences to 1 frame. Import the folder containing the image sequence. Place the Timeline playhead where the images need to start. Set the Target track and drag the entire folder to the Timeline.
