No render preview window??

Hi,
Having started another project on LT, I find that after a "normal" render preview, the window no longer shows up. I haven't had this situation prior and wonder where I might find a reason for such.
Thanks!

And you're certain that you closed the previous instance of the render preview window? If you don't, LiveType sends that window behind all others, yet will still render to it when doing a preview. The real bug is that a render preview does not bring that window back to the front. In other words, hit up the Window menu and see if that window is listed.
Or is your issue beyond that?

Premiere CS5 will not render video with titles on the fly in preview window

I am trying to use CS5 and notice if I add a title to the timeline overlapping any video and then attempt to play the video as soon as it hits the part with the title the video stops playing in the preview window. The background sound keeps going but video play back stops. In premiere CS4 it would render titles on the fly no problem. Why wont it do it in CS5? I should not have to render the timeline it should do at least a rough realtime playback without a full render. In CS4 it would play any and all effects on the fly depending on the resolution and the performence would vary depending on how many and what effects and transitions were applied to the clips but its very useful to get a quick idea how it will look. If I scrub, the titles playback while scrubbing no problem its only with actual playback it happens. Other effects and transitions I apply seem to render on the fly and play back in the preview window ok, it only seems to be the titles having the issues.
Any ideas?

Version = 5.0
Language = english
Latest updates = applied
Issue happens regardless of sequence settings
Windows 7 64 bit

Usualy capture video from a canon HV30 using Cineform Neoscene capture software, this is 1440x1080 HD 24p clips. (issue with the titles happens on any imported video in any format though, even with no clips but on a matt background)
Cineform Neoscene capture software version 5 latest version
Only using stock premiere plugins
No error message
I want to use the built in premiere title function to place titles along with fades and what not and then play back clips in the preview windows with the titles applied rendering on the fly. This works perfectly in CS4, just not in CS5. When I try it in CS5 after you hit the play button it will play the clip but as soon as you get to the part of the clip where the title is the video playback will freeze, mind you the clip is still playing in the sense that audio is still going just the video playback stops in the preview window. As a note if you scrub the video on the timeline the video clips will display with the titles applied it should, it is only when you hit the play button the problem happens.
I have tried adjusing the quality settings in the preview window, updated my gfx card drivers and system drivers along with directx. Premiere is updated. I have tested other effects and transitions and they display fine, including super imposures such as chroma key or ultra key. I have adjust playback settings not that there was much to adjust there.
I will say again in CS4 never had this issue, I am surprised to see it here.
Please any ideas would be appriciated thx.

AE cs6 crash during render preview

AE is crashing during a render preview.
Version: cs6 11.0.4 (recently updated).
System: iMac mid 2011 running os X 10.7.5
Processor: 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 16 gb 1333 MHz RAM
Error message: "Last log message was: <4453353824> <ae.blitpipe> <2> Making New Context."
In my comp I am using four masked solid layers with keyframes, no 3D or 3rd party plugins. The crash occurred after adding an adjustment layer and applying Turbulent Displace with an expression and Simple Choker. Crash occurs at the same point in the timeline every time I do a render preview. I've tried purging the cache, rebooting everything. I tried clearing the preferences with the command "command option shift" at startup, but that didn't seem to work (got no pop up window with yes/no option, maybe not doing it right?). Please let me know if you have any advice or need more information to clarify the issue. Thanks.

The problem is in Mask 1 on the Head layer. Delete and redraw/re-animate that mask.
Or, better...
Why are you drawing masks on solid layers for animation? That stopped being the right way to create graphics in After Effects seven years ago, when we introduced shape layers. I strongly recommend using shape layers for the kind of work that you're doing here. Also, I just checked, and copying and pasting your mask paths into shape layers path makes the problem go away, so whatever bug there is there is just with masks on solids.
To learn shape layers, go through Andrew Devis's materials in this series:

Render Previews - not working?

I'm attempting to render my Premiere timeline (in AME) using previews. My timeline has been rendered to a Cineform codec. All is green and as expected there, but the transcode from Cineform to H264 is taking hours (with 6-8 minute preview rendered sequences)
am I missing something?

Thanks Ian. So to see if I understand correctly ... when I hover over a template in the print module the preview window will show what the template will look like in print but not necessarily how it will look with the selected photo?

Hardware Specifics Check - (Preview Window Choppy)

So I upgraded from CS6 to CC and what use to play smoothly in the preview window is now playing choppy. What I have discovered is that if I loop the troubled spot 1-6 times, it plays smoothly and will so long as the project is open. After the project is closed and reopened, it resets and all the footage starts smooth for 1-3 seconds, and then bogs down. This is with the preview monitor's resolution set to the lowest. I really hope it's not my hardware, but if someone would care to verify my specs, that would be great.
OS: Windows 8.1
Graphics: XFX DD Radeon R7970 3GB DDR5, 384 bit BUS, GPU Clock 925MHz Memory 1375MHz
CPU: Intel i7-3820 CPU @3.6GHz (8 CPUs)
Memory: 64 GB DDR3
Disk: 7200 rpm connected through Sata and USB 3.0
The problem is not limited to HD formats, I can't even preview standard definition formats without choppy playback 2-3 seconds in.
I've also adjusted the render paramater between PERFORMANCE and MEMORY, both equally seem to deliver the same results.
It's a bummer because I was able to edit RED footage without a problem, now it's just ridiculous.

It's weird because in CS6 everything was smooth. I don't know if it's CC or
something on my hardware that needs to be turned on or disabled.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling using CC cleaner. Same results.
UPDATE: My hard disk transfer rate is capped at 50-60mb/s during playback. Could this be the problem?

Render previews on import meaningless?

Normally LR only renders previews once for a folder. That means, if you ask it to create them for a folder where they are already rendered, LR does not render them again.
Observation on a Windows-LR:
Import a folder, check render previews on Import.
After that ask LR to render the previews for this folder manually. It renders them for the whole folder again.
Now we have to possibilities:
1.) LR does not render previews on import, even if asked so
2.) LR forgets that it has already rendered the previews and does it again.
Could anyone from the LR Team issue a statement regarding this?
Thank you.

Lightroom shows a progress indicator on top. After finishing importing the previews should have been generated.
Besides this, the import has been done several days/weeks ago, and lightroom would have had plenty of time to render since then. :-)
I don't think, rendering of previews is a background process (without progress indicator) like automatically writing xmp is.

Using smart previews on iMac to control two sets of identical original files on two external drives --- render previews setting when using smart previews

I’m just getting started with Lightroom and if someone can help me I’ll be very appreciative.
I’m using an iMac with a 1TB drive and two external 2.5 TB drives for backup. My active files are on all three drives and I’m running out of room on the iMac drive.
With the smart previews capability of Lightroom 5, I’m hoping to remove all the active files from the iMac drive. I hope to import existing images into the LR catalog from two identical drives with identical folders and have both sets of images reflect the changes I make using smart previews on my iMac.
I just created two identical test folders of junk images on the external drives and was following a beginners tutorial on importing. However, I see nothing about using smart previews on my iMac that, when connected, will update more than one external drive at the same time.
I’m also wondering if, when using smart previews, it matters how I set the render previews during the import process.
Many thanks for any help,
Karl Hentz

I don't see any way to use smart previews to update both external drives at the same time. The smart previews are linked to a specific set of images. But it seems to me that if both drives are in fact identical, once the catalog is updated when one of those drives is connected those changes should also apply to the files on the other drive. It's actually the catalog that gets updated, not the images. Smart previews and regular import previews are completely unrelated. How you have your import previews configured will have no effect on your smart previews.
Incidentally, in order for my suggestion to work it would be necessary to only have one of those external drives connected. And when the other EHD is connected it would have to have the same drive letter or name. In other words it would have to appear to the iMac that it is precisely the same drive.

What is this white line under my preview window?

I accidentally hit T while editing and suddenly there were 2 preview windows in my preview window. I hit T again and it went back to 1 but now there's a white line under my preview screen. What is it? And did it do something to my image? How do I remove it? And what does T do in adobe premiere? And what were those 2 preview images in my preview window?
Here's a picture:
WHITE LINE:

Please help me, I've worked too hard on this project to have it be ruined now.

Dont think you have to worry about the white line. I think the program monitor is not updating correctly. Resizing the window should fix that.
T is for Trimwindow.

Crystal report preview window freezes if I push any key on the keyboard

our system is a pretty old one, and we are still using crystal report 7 and vc6(mfc6).
It is a simple dialog based application with a button and a flex grid7.1 component on it.
when the button is clicked, a crystal report preview window will be opened and become the active window.
the problem is that, when i pushed a key on the keyboard ('a' for example) the whole application will freeze, and CPU Occupancy Rate is 100%.
but if I switch the dialog to be current active window after a preview window opened, keyboard input won't make the application freeze.
It seems that crystal report preview window don't know how to deal with the keyboard input.
BTW:
I use the methods below to open a preview window.
PEOpenEngine
PEOpenPrintJob
PEPrintReport
have anyone here met any similiar problems before?
I really need your help.
thanks in advance.

Moved to Legacy Application Development SDKs forum.
I have nothing for you, other than; consider upgrading - after all CR 7 shipped in 1998(!). I don't know what OS you are on, but I suspect what ever OS it is, it was not even in a concept stage of thought when CR 7 shipped. E.g.; this may be an OS issue more than anything else.
BTW., print engine APIs were retired in version 9 of Crystal Reports. At this time, your best option is to upgrade to CR 2008 (12.0)and use .NET or Java. If you are using VB 6 or equivalent, you could still upgrade to CR XI r2 (11.5) and use the Report Designer Component (RDC). However, note that CR XI r2 will be out of support in June of this year. And CR XI R2 is the last version of CR to include the RDC.

Closing Report Preview window closes all parent windows

I have a form 6.0 calling a report 6.0 with several user parameters using run_report_object in preview mode. After the finishing previewing, the user closes the report preview window. Then the preview window closes all the parent windows.
Need help!
1) The parameters are char, date and number types.
2) I don't have a parameter form. I take out the high-light of the parameters on the parameter form and the parameter form title.
3) I have several user parameters and without the parameter form i'm still able to pass the parameters from the Form.
Thanks
null

report_other parameter can only take 255? characters.
I use create parameter list and add_parameter instead.

IMovie 11 projects no longer working, preview window is glitched or black, event library not playing imported vids

I am having a lot of trouble with iMovie 11. I bought a new MacBook Pro 15" for the sole purpose of editing surgical videos for work. iMovie 11 was working great initially for me (taking full length surgical video - up to 2 hours) and editing these down to anywhere from 5 to 30 min videos highlighting crucial steps for the surgeries along with transitions, ken burns, etc (with the plan of overlaying narrative voice-over later). I had about 15 of these videos edited sitting in my Project Library and multiple imported videos (dvd to m4v via handbrake then imported via iMovie 11) in my Project Library. Now none of my projects play in the preview window, it's either black or a weird glitchy picture (like messed up pic of my doc or desktop... really weird) and only about 2 of my imported videos play in the project library, otherwise they are just black when I roll over them. My projects are still intact as far as edited clip lengths and transitions, but nothing plays, even in full screen mode. I tried making a new project and the imported video shows in the event library but when I add it to a project it's black (but does play in full screen mode, but impossible to edit this way). I think the audio is actually intact although i'm not positive because these videos don't have any audio (there's some baseline level that fluctuates on the audio bars).
I tried finalizing and exporting a project as an m4v (one that was a combination of two edited imported videos - one of the source imported vids working in the event library and the other not working) and the first half is all glitched up with no surgery video, but the second half is there with the transitions and everything (the half that is working in the event library). This part does not show up when I am trying to edit the project.
fyi - I had deleted some of the videos from my event library to unclutter a little some time ago, the projects were still working after that.
I can find all of my imported videos (in .mov format) that should be working in the event library when I look in the folder:
users/me/movies/iMovie events
If someone could please help me resolve this issue, I would really appreciate it. I put a lot of work and time into these videos and it would be near impossible to start from scratch (which would probably be on some other movie editor like windows movie maker since my iMovie is not working properly even for new projects). I'm hoping this is just some sort of glitch that can be fixed and my projects are still salvagable. I can't remember if this started after I did a system software update or not. This will be a huge dissapointment for me in the Apple platform if I have to scrap my projects because I had just switched over from the PC platform.
I even got Norton antivirus and internet security to make sure I don't have some sort of weird virus.
I have a Feb 2011 15 in MacBook Pro 2.2 Ghz, 4 g RAM, 750 g HD, 1 g vid card. iMovie ver 9.0.4. Lion 10.7.2

Did you by any chance upgrade your Mac OS from version 10.6 (Snow Leopard) to 10.7 (Lion) during the time you were working in iMovie on all these projects?
If not, start by deleting the iMovie Preferences file.
Go to the Desktop
Hold down the Option key and choose the Go Menu > Library
Go to Preferences > com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
Move the .plist file to the trash and restart iMovie
See if the Project files react any differently. Failing that try doing a Repair Disk Permissions:
Restart the Mac, hold down the Option key continuously until 2 hard drive icons appear
Choose the Recovery Volume as your startup disk and let it run until you see the Desktop
Choose Disk Utility from the Recovery Menu
Run Repair Disk Permissions in Disk Utility
Reboot the Mac and when you see the Desktop appear launch iMovie
See if the Project files are the same or different. Next step after this is to one at a time take the Project folders out of users/me/movies/imovie projects. Move one to the desktop and start iMovie. Try skimming the projects that acted up recently. Moving one project at a time might help isolate which project may be causing problems. You can also place project folders back in their original location after doing this testing and iMovie will recognize them on the next relaunch. It won't hurt anything.

In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button" And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?

In CC214 PS Why has adobe removed the "print Size Button" And why have they made the Brush preview window so small you can't see the effects to accurately adjust them?
These two things need to be remedied in their upgrades because It's become such a bother I've had to revert to older versions of PS.

Yea, and it's a pain to get to. What was the rational for removing the print size button? With the magnifying glass tool selected in older versions of Photoshop you would get a button that says "print size" right next to Actual pixels, Fit Screen, Fill Screen. Now I have to go out of my way and dig for it if I want to see the print size. Of all the buttons you could have taken away, why not fill screen? I never use that.
Besides the point I just downloaded the Oct Upgrade for PS and surprise! Nothing has changed and these are two big black eyes on newer versions of Photoshop. The Brush preview window is unchanged in CC but in CC2014 it's basically worthless. If you apply a texture to a brush you can't properly see the scale of the texture, the spacing, scatter, etc...

After upgrading to Premiere Pro CC 2014, I can't change the render preview location

Ever since I downloaded Premiere Pro CC 2014, I cannot re-route my render preview files. I have two internal hard drives and I need the files to go to my secondary one. With CC, it did this just fine, but since I've upgraded to 2014, it will not do it. I've set it the same way I did before in Preferences/Media, then set the Media Cache Files and Media Cache Database to the new hard drive. It's eating all my hard drive space and I cannot render or export a large sequence. Is there a trick to this I'm missing that has changed?

Thanks Neil! I'm actually wondering how to change where the preview files go. I've attached two screen grabs. Right now my media cache is going to my SATA drive (my smaller of my two internal hard drives and the drive where Premiere Pro is located.) I want to re-route my render files to go to my Macintosh HD drive which is much larger and gives me more breathing room. I could do that before but since I've upgraded to 2014, even though I have it set in preferences, it STILL goes to my SATA drive. So annoying! I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if it's a bug. I'm still running Mountain Lion (getting ready to finally upgrade, I've just been needing to backup my computer), could this be the reason? Any ideas? Thanks so much for the help!
