Newbie help-clips & scenes

I am having a hard time learning action script. I want to
have a movie clip that was pulled from the library with
"attach_movie", but once it is done I need it to go to another
scene. Is this something simple, or am I asking for a lot? I have
been through a ton of tutorials just to figure out the attach movie
action, but the second part of the problem is very perplexing to a
newbie like myself. Any help or a site that has a tutorial would be
greatly appreciated.

When you say movie clip, are you reffering to the last frame
of the clip that is being pulled from the library, or the scene
that the button resides in. I tried adding it to the last frame of
the library clip, but it doesnt do anything. Any ideas?

  • Newbie:  Help with Interactive Movie Clips

    I'm just starting off with Indesign and am already running into an issue on a seemingly simple issue.  I'm trying to create an interactive document that I will play movie clips when exported to pdf.  Ok so far so good.  I've inserted one movie and started to play around.
    1st issue - The only option I can get to actually play the movie when clicked is when the pdf export option for compatibility is set to 'Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4)'
                     How come no newer options work?  Using Acrobat reader 9 by the way and tried to toggle options such as 'embedding' the movie.
                     No luck with playing on any setting except 'Acrobat 5 (PDF 1.4)'
    2nd Issue - Inside the movie options dialog box for this clip, there is an option for a poster that I can 'choose movie frame' as poster.  The dialog box       comes up and is completely empth with no video controls or anything.  What the deal with this.
    I'm just starting out and I know I'm not totally incompetant but I'm not very pleased with what I'm seeing right now.
    Any help or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Don

    Here is some help for starter.
    For embedding, do that in InDesign. I think you know the movie will only play in the PDF.
    If you export to PDF 1.3/1.4•Non-RGB movie or sound posters aren’t visible in the exported PDF document.
    •SWF and MPEG movies aren’t playable in the exported PDF document.
    •Clipping paths applied to movie or sound posters don’t appear in the exported PDF document. Posters are resized to match the movie page item.
    •Movies cannot be embedded.•Sounds cannot be linked.
    If you export to PDF 1.5 or laterQuickTime is specified as the preferred player when exporting to PDF. To change the preferred player, you must edit the rendition in Acrobat 6.0 or later.
    If you export to any PDF version•Non-rectangular media frames don’t appear in the exported PDF document.
    •Hyperlinks applied to movies, sounds, or buttons are not active in the exported PDF document. However, you can add those hyperlinks using Acrobat Professional.
    •Rotated or sheared movies and posters may not appear correctly in the exported PDF document.
    •Any masking applied to movie frames or posters is not supported.

  • Newbie HELP - Track playback video freeze across .m2v clips

    Hello.
    This seems a VERY basic issue. But VERY frustrating.
    And of course it is a VERY URGENT job to finish.
    Running DVDSP 4.1.1.
    I create a new project and a new track and place 2 clips - .m2v plus .ac3 files (created in compressor from .mov files) on the track.
    When I play across the the JOIN of the clips -
    CLIP 1 plays VIDEO and AUDIO fine...
    the playhead moves across to CLIP 2
    The timecode continues to count...
    The AUDIO of CLIP 2 plays...
    BUT...
    The screen/window/video displays ONLY the LAST FRAME of CLIP 1.
    This "frozen video display" remains UNTIL I press pause on the playback.
    Then the screen/window/video updates and displays the correct new frame of CLIP 2.
    When I SIMULATE...
    The same thing happens - as you would expect I guess.
    I have tried new projects, old projects, new clips, old clips.
    Same thing.
    BUT...
    When I COMBINE the original .mov clip(s) - either before or after the .m2v clip(s) - the playback is NORMAL.
    Why would this be?
    I have already encoded all assets and I don't want to combine them with .mov files.
    Normally I only have 1 clip per track and never have this issue.
    But now I need to solve this.
    Any URGENT help appreciated.

    This is the link to the thread that Graham mentioned in his post:

    Hope it helps !

  • Newbie help me obi wans: ...coded locked by template or translator

    Hi Folks,
    I'm such a newbie to DW   I've been using it for a few years actually, but in a very basic sense.
    I dloaded a template, added some graphics, made some buttons etc.. and of course text, but when it comes to coding,
    I've only figure out how to add spaces  lol
    I'm trying to add a flash video to my samples page.  I can add images, but every time I add the .flv, I receive the subject message.
    So here are 2 issues:
    1. I don't know if this related to #2, but I can't erase the 3rd column...or even use it. it's locked - I see a circle with a line through it.  The template I bought did say it was 3 columns, but I don't understand why I can't touch it.  I've attached a tiff of what it looks like right now.
    2. as the subject says "changing code is locked by the template is locked a template or translator" is giving me grief.
    I've reviewed the previous posts on the subject, but I'm afraid my newbie-ness has left me not knowing what to do.  ie. I can't find a time/date to change...I see the <head> and <script>, but they're greyed out on the one page I'm trying to edit.  They're not greyed out on the template page however.
    I also tried saving my .dwt as a new template, but that didn't work either.
    Here is code for my Samples page.  I'll post the code for the template page under that.

    thanks for the quick reply!
    I found the 2 things to change, but when I go back to my page...everything is gone!  eek
    (fear no panic - I did back up my website prior to making any changes
    (file attached).
    it looks like there is only 1 column instead of 3 sections. I was hoping to lose just the one on the right.
    here is the new code from my Samples page (not the template)  I"ll post that below.

  • Help, clips "frozen" and blank after import

    I imported about 7 minutes of footage from my Panasonic DV cam. Everything looked fine as I scrubbed through it and added clips to the project. I did let iMovie do image stabilization. I added a few titles, and let the project do the "scrapbook" template, and things looked great. I added a song or two, and was adjusting where they begin in the timline, and all of a sudden, my clips were "frozen". I mean, as I would run the mouse over them, there was one frame that played, and nothing else. There were 4 clips like this.
    I decided to just replace them with the clips in the lower part of the iMovie window, because they still played fine. I deleted the ones that were messed up, then drug the clip back into the top part, and then they too were broken. Then, in the lower part, the same clip that played fine 5 seconds ago, is now black. (no video)
    Any ideas?

    No, I didn't try restarting my computer. I don't think it will help, but I will try. I had to pretty much scrap my whole project. I used time machine to get a copy of the files from the night before. This at least saved me from having to capture all over again. (not to mention waiting on the processing time for stabilization)

  • Java newbie help (type casting, 64bit unsigned Long)

    Hi I am java newbie and need help on my project. I have a few questions. Can you put strings in a hashtable and test for their being their with the appropriate hashtable method? I want to test for equal strings, not the same object. Second question can you use all 64 bits of an unsigned long? java doesn't seem to allow this. Any packages that do?
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Try casting it to Long instead of long. Long (capital L) is an Object, while long (lower case l) is not. You may also check to make sure the value isn't null. I would have thought that autoboxing would have worked here unless the value was null. But I am no expert on autoboxing.
    Edit >> Checking for null ain't a bad idea but has nothing to do with the problem - this is a compile time problem. Sorry.
    Also>> This code should work:
    long cTime=(Long)session.getAttribute("creationtime");Edited by: stevejluke on Jul 1, 2008 11:00 AM

  • Newbie help on Queries

    I just set up my first query page using two tables (categories and properties) and I set up a simplistic page here just to see if the data loads:
    http://209.62.4.98/~parishpr/query1.php
    It does, but it loads all the entries of the properties table. I just want it to display one of the three categories (One Bedroom, Two Bedroom, Three Bedroom) and I thought just adding ?id=1 would do something like that but it didn't change anything. I set up a query with a join using ADDT connecting the category row from the properties table to the id row of the categories table. So why am I getting all the data instead of just one of the rows from the categories table? Can anyone help an ADDT/PHP newbie?

    Oops, sorry,
    I forgot to enclose my addition in single apostrophes -- that should be:
    SELECT * FROM properties WHERE category=123456789 AND category = '".$_GET['category']."' ORDER BY property
    Should I have done something differently?
    yes, the "detail2properties" query should have rather become somewhat enhanced to filter against a certain URL variable, but this requirement probably wasn´t clear at the time you implemented the Nested Repeat Region wizard.
    The demo you were using apparently didn´t cover this particular scenario -- but when trying to create a "real world" application, the specific requirements are usually different from any tutorial.
    However, ADDT actually provides two Nested Repeat Region "flavors" -- a) the Wizard that´s doing everything for you without having to provide the recordsets, and b) the Nested Repeat Region *server behavior* which can be applied to existing recordsets. I´m not sure which one you actually used, but I guess it´s the Wizard, which can be a little inflexible when it comes to the generated recordsets.
    You think in future versions of Dreamweaver that text should be selectable?
    no clue, I´m not involved in developing DW ;-) However, please feel free to file a feature request.

  • Help - clips being cut off - 'arrow' feature vanished

    I'm using CS4.
    Unfortunately, I have no idea what the feature I need is called, hence part of my issue.
    Up until recently, when I used premeire, when bringing a clip right up next to another, these little arrows appeared and helped stop the clip directly next to the clip, without accidentally deleting over it. I have no idea how - but mid edit of a piece I was doing, this feature went away, and I'm forced to eyeball, which really sucks. If I hold down CTRL (PC user), I get the one that should force everything past the clip, however, this isn't working correctly either - instead of moving a whole clip like it would before, it chops clips in half and moves only the part wherever the file landed.
    Again, sorry I don't know what this is called, and I don't know if this makes sense. But I NEED this feature back!
    Actually, if you look at this video:
    http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-premiere-pro-cs4/getting-started-06-editing-your-video/
    It's that black line with arrow that appears as the guy is moving clips. That is what vanished.
    Thanks!!

    THANKS guys!!! It was indeed snap.
    Jeff - thanks for the insight as to how I turned it off in the first place (while I was saving clearly).
    I'm so happy! You guys rock!!!!!!!!

  • Help with scene

    Greetings all,
    I am looking for tutorials on creating a scene similar to this: http://www.jeld-wen.com/designyourown#/catalog:/exterior-doors/custom/wood If you could point me in the right direction. More help is needed in how the buttons interact with the images. Is that action script or done through just the button itself? Do the images need to be pre-loaded or imported into flash itself and "compiled" together to the swf file?
    Thank you

    If you're talking about the door selection animation at the center of the page, that's a variation on a coverflow animation. If you right-click on that portion of the page, you'll see a listing for something called Fluid Experience. If you google "AS3 coverflow", you'll find a a wide selection of examples for this sort of thing. This kind of effect is usually achieved by using Actionscript.

  • Timeline Help (clips dropping to lower track)

    I've recently switched from FCP 7 to 10. My normal workflow for 7 was to get a few multicam tracks (these tracks have already been synced with Plural Eyes and the multicam clip has been inserted into the Main Sequence) on several different tracks. Track 1 would be one style of shooting (i.e., hard light), Track 2 would be another style (i.e., soft light) and Track 3 would be a different style. This way, I could quickly look at the 3 different tracks and know which style I was dealing with. I would use the blade tool and make edit points and click and drag the edges of the multicam clip to match the track below or above (see image):
    I can't seem to do this in FCP X. In FCP X, I select the clips that pertain to the style of shooting, syncronize them, then place them in the timeline. I do this with all three styles of shooting. Using my blade, I can't drag the edges of the clip and create gaps. The only way I can create gaps is if I "LIFT FROM STORYLINE", but then if a gap is created, it falls to the track below it.
    Clearly I'm doing something wrong.
    I made a video to show you my thought process and it might help explain what I'm doing and what I may be doing wrong.
    Password: video
    https://vimeo.com/39541378

    As Tom suggested, Multicam is the way for you to do this. You can position your clips just where you want them and tweaking as you do in your video is dead simple.
    I strongly recommend you watch the Ripple Training Multicam Turorial.
    There is a small fee, but it's more than worth it.

  • Nikon D3s + PrPro-CS4 w/ Vista64 Newbie Help?

    I know, a D3s is not a real video camera...
    I sure could use a few pointers to at least get started with just getting the video to display properly in PrProCS4, if someone has the time to offer some help?
    I can open/ edit/ save the AVI file that the D3s creates with Premiere Elements v7, no problem. But when I open the same video in PremierePro CS4 I hear the audio, but the video does not move.
    I'll soon be watching the Lynda Learning Premiere Pro videos (haven't started my free 30 day trial). But is there something specific I need to know just to get started with editing D3s video with PProCS4?
    My System: P4-PC Quad 2.5GHz, 8GB RAM, Vista64, 2x WD 300GB 10k VelociRaptor Drives w/60GB free on the scratch. Works flawlessly with Photoshop CS4(64) and all' openGL' stuff works there.
    Here's where I am now:
    1) In the New Project I selected DV and HDV (tried both). The D3s manual states: 1280 x 720 pixels HD @ 24fps.
    2) I used the DV-24P Widescreen 32kHz sequence preset (D3s built-in audio is only 11-12bit audio)
    I then double-clicked on a clip in the media browser and it appeared in the Source window with the 1st frame of the video displayed. So far so good :-)  I then pressed the 'play' button below it and nothing moves in the video.
    So that’s where I'm stuck. Could someone please help point me in the right direction :-)
    Thanks for any help to just get started..

    I just installed the MainConcept MJPG Codec but have not re-booted. It would appear from the above that I'm currently using "Microsoft AVI DV NTSC" which has the options and the codec button grayed out. The preview image looks fine though.
    So far, do the settings above appear appropriate considering the format info that GSpot provided?

  • Flash Builder 4.5 newbie help

    Hey guys,
    Thank you for taking the time to read my post and help me out.  I am currently just learning actionscript 3 and I have been using flash professional in order to program most of my first flash programs,  I would like to take one of my ideas and create it to work on the blackberry playbook, so I downloaded flash builder 4.5 and have set up my whole environment.
    The problem im running into is that with flash professional creating movie clips and frames was as easy as adding objects to the library and then setting up the linkage so it could be used by your AS3 coding, frames and layers were added through the UI...well with flash builder I have no idea how to do this as there is no graphical interface, I am just wondering if somebody could explain to me how to create and link movie clips and work with frames using flash builder 4.5....I know this is probably a dumb question but I simply just don;t know
    Thanks in advanced for any help

    Hi nateatkins, Flash Builder is a software to develop flex and/or as3 applications. Do do things with Flash Builder, you need to code it in .as or .mxml files. Flash gives you the ability to make graphical element, add them to a library, animate them using the software interface and commands, and publish them right out of the box, but it is not the purpose of Flash Builder. You can use Flash to make a library of graphical elements, configure those elements to be available as Actionscript classes, then export your library as an SWC to use them in a Flash Builder project code. Or you can choose in Flash to code your actionscript using external .as files, and use flash builder to write them. Flash Builder is intended to make life easier when you work on object oriented coded projects using as3, and let you code faster. Flash have it's limitations to assist you when it's time to code, Flash Builder is here to enhance your development workflow when needed.

  • Premiere CS4 Newbie Help Please

    This might be long.  I've watched all of the Lynda Videos as well as the Adobe TV tutorials in preparation to do a video presentation for my company.
    Shockingly, I know how to do all of  the important stuff like adding text, titles and editing clip etc, but I'm unable to even start properly.
    I will be capturing a screen presentation at 1440x900 and then working from there.  The problem is that resolution is too large, obviously, to use as my final video but I don't know how to size it down to a more appropriate size like half of that, i.e., 720x450.  Unfortunately when I start the project and choose the sequence preset resolution (which seems mandatory) that isn't one of the options.
    I guess, basically, I need to know which is the best available preset to choose and how to get my 1440x900 movie to fit into that size (its going to be a high res Youtube vid)?
    Secondly, is there a good starter book that might walk you through a cs4 project from start to finish?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Here is the beginning lesson:
    Your Project/Sequence Preset must match your source footage 100%, or there will be issues along the way.
    Set that correctly, and even use the Desktop Preset, adjusting your parameters, if necessary. Import, edit and THEN, when you are done, you will Export to what is required.
    With HD material to SD (seems to be the case here), Jeff Bellune's tutorial might be useful for ultimate quality. This ARTICLE has links to that.
    Good luck,

  • Newbie-help with transitions--ripple dissolve not acting right

    I'm a FCP newbie and having a problem with ripple dissolve.
    This is what I did: in the TL put clip 1 followed by clip 2. Took the video of clip two and dragged it above clip 1 at the point I want the transition to start. Click on the in point (where the transition is supposed to start.) Select "Ripple Dissolve." Render. And voila, the ripple dissolve looks like a cross dissolve. I experimented with selecting the transition and trading it for a number of other transitions and all of the other transitions work but every time I try Ripple, I get a cross vs the look of a ripple dissolve.
    What am I doing wrong?
    THanks

    ldanimator wrote:
    1) in one instance while the transition works fine, I'd like it to start earlier in the clip and the video to ripple while listening to the audio under. How do I do this?
    When you hold the option Key you can select the audio seperate from the video and then put it on two other audio tracks. Then you can OPTION drag the beginning or ending of the audio to the position you want.
    2) in another instance, the ripple dissolve works fine, but near the beginning of clip 2, the video fades almost to black, then comes back up again to full color (this is underneath the ripple dissolve)--almost as if there's a crossfade mixed into the ripple dissolve. When I take the transition off altogether, there is no crossfade whatsoever. Any suggestions on how to eliminate this crossfade?
    I guess what's happening is that you still don't get the idea of handles completely. Clip 1 needs extra length after the cut (handle). Clip 2 needs extra length BEFORE the cut. (handle)
    Do some googling on this topic...

  • Newbie Help with videocameras and editing software

    I am a third grade teacher who can whip around in imovie pretty well, but I want to expand and post training videos to the web. I also want to vodcast. I need a relatively easy videocamera, and of course, reasonably priced. I don't understand all the mumbo jumbo about the dvd, tape, flash videocameras except to know that some are not compatible with osx.
    Also would I be better off with Final Cut Pro Express?
    Help to a newbie...

    susannamessier wrote:
    OK now I am looking and I want this camera to be compatible with imovie also. On the Apple support page along side the Canon's I am looking at I see:
    Video stabilization limitations more...
    Filming in Cinema or 24p mode more...
    What? Goodness could this be anymore complicated?
    It's very intimidating at first. The short answer is that all this is compatible with iMovie.
    The longer one is:
    The number refers to frames per second (frame rate, in the jargon). Cine cameras run at 24 frames per second, so 24 fps is considered to give a look to moving objects similar to what you'd see in a filmed movie (think wagon wheels appearing to go backwards in old westerns).
    p refers to progressive, and means that you're getting 24 complete frames each second - again like film (this idea of mimicking film is the holy grail to some video makers - I say video is video, and should be treated like video). The opposite of progressive is i, for interlaced. Interlacing is a technique used in television since the early days as a way of giving you a better looking TV picture; in interlacing, instead of looking at each frame as a whole, you split it into very narrow lines, then scan al the odd ones, followed by all the even ones. In the old days, the scanning had to be linked to the way in which the electricity supply worked, so scanning was based on a frequency of 60 cycles per second (in the USA).
    So in video, you will see camcorders offering a frame rate of 60i as standard - i.e. 60 interlaced frames in one second.. They usually also offer 30p (which combines the results of 2 60i scans to give you 30 complete frames. And then as you've seen, 24p so you can make it look like film.
    You can shoot good movies in any of those frame rates; which ones you choose are up to you, but they're all used by many people for many different purposes. Some people will tell you you must use frame rate x for subject y. Listen, but don't follow blindly - try it out and see what works for you.
    The issue you will sometimes here debated about iMovie is how to take video you have shot interlaced, and get iMovie to export it as progressive, but still in high quality. Don't worry about that right now.
    Just get a camcorder you like, and make some movies. First feel really proud of them, then learn some more, and feel embarrassed by them (this is what we all do!).
    Hope that helps.
