NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects.

Hi, i have exported .mov from FCP and when i try to import it into DVD Studio Pro i get the message,
NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects, WHY, it is not an NTSC asset ?
HELP
Paul

Do not use H.264. Use Pro Res or send the timeline straight from Final Cut to Compressor an a PAL preset (or one that you make yourself.) I prefer sending out self-contained versions in case I need to re-rencode or want to make items for various formats.
Movie setting up Compressor *in case you need it) is [here|http://www.dvdstepbystep.com/compressor.mov] Make sure to use PAL and/or make sure you make your preset PAL

Error message "NTSC assets cannot be imported . . . ."

This has left me stumped.
I keep getting the following error message when I try to import m2v clips from compressor:
"NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects"
But I haven't made any of my clips NTSC. Im exporting them out of the same FCP project, through the same settings and destination in Compressor and into DVDSP.
But only some files can be improted in. All the others keep triggering this error message??......

Ive opened the M2v file in Quicktime, and looking through the movie inspector and movie properties there is no mention of it being PAL or NTSC?
What is the size that is being reported?
I am working from the same FCP project as all the other clips I have successfully imported, where the Sequence settings are 'Apple ProRes 422 1440x1080 24p 48kHz'
I used the same M2V settings and Dolby surround sound settings in Compressor too.
So you set the timeline out to a SD PAL preset? What you may want to try is copy a preset, and make sure to set the Video Format in the inspector to PAL and Stream Usage to SD DVD. Save the PAL preset as something like "PALTEST" so it is easy to find and when the item is encoded it will have the words "PALTEST" appended to make sure that you are grabbing the right file. You may want to try that on a small section (smallest clip?) to start. Before doing that you can try to delete the MPEG/PAR files for the problematic ones in case something got corrupted when you bought the original probllem ones in....
What were the Compressor settings that you used? Did you just send to a preset that Apple has in it? What were the names at the end of the files that are giving you issues?

Can't import into Shapes Project Palette

I'm working through the Apple Pro Series DVDSP 3 and the lesson requires me to import a layered Photoshop file into Palette - Shapes - Project. Initially, I had to import and the file appeared in the Custom tab. I followed the steps to import into the Project tab (selection "For this project only"), but the file appears in Custom or not at all. Very frustrating. I've tried restarting DVDSP and that doesn't work. Can anyone help?

Its a limitation of importing into Aperture from an iPad.

I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

I am having problems using mov files imported into a project. I get the message "Not rendered" in the Canvas and clip won't play. Can anyone help?

When clips won't play without rendering in the Timeline, it usually means that the clip's specs don't match the Sequence settings.
A .mov file could be made from any number of codecs; the QuickTime Movie designation is merely a container for video files of all kinds. Since FCE only works with the QuickTime DV codec and the Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC) natively, if your mov files aren't one of those two, you need to convert them PRIOR to importing into your FCE project.

Variable bit rate audio assets cannot be imported

Extracted some ac3 files from personal content DVDs I authored and burned myself (using DVDSP) to make a compilation. When I try to import these 5.1 ac3 assets, DVDSP is refusing stating: "Variable bit rate audio assets cannot be imported." These ac3 files play fine in QuickTime and other programs that handle ac3 files.
Can anyone help?

Hi:
Please give us some info about the original movie/audio formats and what encoding presets you used in Compressor.

Since the iTunes update, DVDs I rip to my computer cannot be imported into the Movies Library. Why? How can I fix this?, Since the update, DVDs I rip to my computer cannot be imported into the Movies Library. Why? How can I fix this?

I used be able to save the files in the Movies folder in iTunes Music. Now, iTunes automatically stores the files in "Home Videos" and files in that folder cannot be imported into the iTunes Library. Please help.

Launch iTunes. Select the movie from Home Videos and right-click > Get Info > Options > Media Kind > Movies.

Behavior of AE projects imported into AE projects

so I frequently bring older versions of projects into my current AE project, particularly when revising spots, what I want to understand clearly is the behaviour of AE projects once they are imported into a larger project.
If I make edits to the compositions of the nested project, are those changes saved back to the nested project's orginal file? If I alter the original nested projects file, how much will it change instances of it nested in other projects?
thoughtful and considered answers are appreciated, I'm not a newb.
If there is a help page somewhere that explains all this behavior in detail then please post a link... tricky to find this answer at short notice and I'm on the clock...
ta!

and does somebody know if it would be possible in a way to get this interaction possible ?
for exemple , I make a template for colorgrading in a project that I would use in several ones.
If I want to adapt this colorgrading project, would I have to replace it in every other projects or there is a way to automatize it ?
Thanks

Lightroom photos edited in PS CS3 & saved on desktop, cannot be imported into iPhoto or resized in M

Hi,
After editing photos from Lightroom in Photoshop CS3, I saved them on the desktop (Mac, Leopard 10.2.5). With these saved photos I find I cannot:
Import into iPhoto or
Resize in Mail (large, medium or small) - they stay the same size.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Caroline

It is too big for mail. -From CS3 -File> Save for web & devices and use this copy for mail.
Better from LR -Menu-Photo>Edit in Adobe CS3. Do the works. Menu File Save-save picture to original folder if dialog opens Click red dot and edited pict appears on LR next to original one-The edited picture should be export... This opens a dialog -a copy will be send to a folder Name it and give it a location ( To Mail ) (Desk)-From File Settings chose Jpg and sRGB ,size W640 H640 and 72 pixels-check copyright water mark if you have one- Minimized Embedded Metadata-From Post-Processing pick Mail Alias and EXPORT.
If you don't have a mail alias go to the folder where it was exported and drag the picture right into the Mail Icon on the dock or any open mail-now u can use the sizing from mail.

Cannot insert photos into iMovie project

Suddenly I am unable to drag/drop photos from the iPhoto window in iMovie into my current project.
I click on the Photo button and thumbnails of my photos appear. I click on a photo (it is highlighted in blue) and drag it to the desired location within my project. When I drop it between clips (the green "Add" button appears) it just doesn't appear in the project.
I have tried several times to drag/drop the photos (from within iMovie and from an opened Finder window), restarted iMovie and restarted my computer but I still cannot add photos to my project.
Any suggestions? Is it the software or my computer?

Chic, Welcome to the discussion area!
I'm not sure why you posted in this area since your question has nothing to do with wireless networking nor the AirPort Express (AX).
I suggest that you go to the appropriate iMovie discussion area and post your question there.

What is best workflow for interpret NTSC footage into PAL project?

Premier Pro CC cutting a film for HD broadcast TV. Majority of footage shot PAL at 1080p, so I made a 1920 x 1080 25p project. Is it okay to make a progressive project for broadcast? Or should I switch to interlaced?
I am supposed to deliver an NTSC tape to the network.
Some footage is 29.97 and 23.97. Is it okay to Interpret footage in bin as 25p PAL and then cut it into my sequence. It seems to play properly; I'm just concerned about problems in the final output. I've read that people duplicate the clip, then interpret to 25fps PAL, and leave the original NTSC alone. This sounds like a good idea. Working on a MacBook Pro Mountain Lion.
When I output the final QT movie, what are the best settings and codec to use for the final
Hi-Res output which I will bring on a drive to a post house to do final CC and layback to tape?
Many thanks in advance.

Raw files for Canon 6D cannot be imported into iphoto or aperture.

How can I open Canon 6D raw images, its rubbish that I cannot use my mac for opening and seeing these files or my FujiX10 raw files?

John, some questions...
Are the images on an external or the internal of another computer?
Are you dragging them from the other computer to your desktop, then trying to import them into iPhoto?
Have you tried created a new library and importing them into that?
Have you tried creating a new administrative user, open iPhoto and try importing the images into that new library?
I forgot if you mentioned this, but are the images jpg?
If not, what are they?
On the other hard drive is there an iPhoto (you mentioned that)? Have you opened that iPhoto and imported the images into that library?

FM import into RH project creates a separate folder for every FM chapter

I am importing a FM book into RH 9 to create a new help project. RH creates a separate folder for every FM chapter! The folder contains the html and CSS. This is messy and useless since all html will point to a single help CSS for the project. It will be tedious to move all the html topics to one folder plus I will lose the FM link for future updates.
Did I miss a step in the import that controls how the project is created in RH?

Yes, this is deliberate - in fact most people want to sub-divide their .fm files into even finer topics - that's what the pagination setting in the Conversion Settings screen is for. Why do you want them all to be mashed together anyway?
I've only heard of one other poster wanting to stuff all their FM content into one folder - try searching the forums. I seem to remember there were a bunch of suggestions to things to do from either the FM end of things or the RH side.
The reason why Adobe did it this way was to give you individual control over the CSS to be applied to individual topics (even if most of us just apply a common one across the board in the SSL recipe when we create our help).

Sony DSCRX-100 video files cannot be imported into Lightroom 5.3

I have lightroom 5.3 running on Windows 7 64-bit. I am unble to import AVCHD video files from my Sony DSCRX-100. I am not sure why, as lightroom 5 supports this video format.

I got LR to import AVCHD.
I have the RX100M2. I shoot stills most of the time, but when I shoot video, I use MP4 output. So I tried an AVCHD to see if I had problems importing. At first I got the same results. Import did not see it on the SD card. Then I went into the SD card in Windows Explorer to see how the folder structure was laid out. I found a folder PRIVATE/AVCHD/BDMV with a file 00000.MTS. I did a drag and drop of the .MTS file onto the LR Grid mode screen. Import came up and the file imported properly. Apparently LR did not see the folder, but when pointed directly to the folder it worked.
My work environment: Win 7 64bit, LR 5.3. I hope this helps.

Photos on hard drive cannot be imported into iPhoto

I've got several thousand photos I've downloaded from my CF cards (pics taken with Nikon Coolpix 950) onto my hard drive. They are recognized as photos by Photoshop, Preview, Word, etc., but iPhoto (v5.0.4) says, "The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type or the files may not contain valid data)".
If I import directly from the CF card, iPhoto imports ok. I really want to be able to add all my photos to iPhoto. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Nikon D70s files cannot be imported into LR4

L/R 4 doesn't recognize nef files from Nikon D70s,any help would be appreciated,thanks Mal
Message title was edited by: Brett N

How are you copying your images to your computer?
There are some reports that Nikon has a piece of software that will copy files but it corrupts them.
Try copying by dragging and dropping from the card to a folder on your disc and then import those files to LR.
Also, before anyone can really help they'll need more details. Like what OS you're using.
Good luck.
