Output only with "black frame"??

Hi there, I am editing rendered animations from cinema4d, which are in the format 768x480 (image on the right). I´ve been trying everything to export them in exactly that format in QT. I can´t find any export option to get a movie with a screen that is 768x480. Instead it is 720x480 (?), but the moving pictures cover only the center of the final window and leave a huge black frame around it (image on the left). Even if I set compression to "none" (which seems the only way to edit the pixel size of the export format manually) the frame appears (and the movie is in a very bad quality). I need the movie for a client who will present it on a Windows PC, yet I wanted to finish everything using QT and then convert the final QT into WMV by using QTpro. Can somebody help?
Thanx

What options does Cinema4D allow, regarding the Frame Size, PAR and CODEC choices?
I'd suggest exploring those choices, finding the best combo, and then setting your Sequence/Project Preset to match. Note: you may have to use the Desktop (Custom) Preset, and then adjust the various setting to match your Cinema4D footage exactly. Your Sequence/Project Preset (and settings in Desktop Mode) MUST match your source footage 100%, or you will get things like black bars.
Good luck, and PrPro should be able to accommodate you on the Mac, so long as the Preset matches your source footage, and you should have some control over that source footage.

Iphoto '11 show some pix only with black screen

In thumbnail view all pix are visible, but if I go to edit view, some are shown only with black.
Some of these pix are in a folder witch I synchronize with my iPhone.
On iPhone all pix are visible.
This phenomen is not a new one, but now the number of invisible pix are increasing.
What should I do?

There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help:
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

How can i print only with black cartridge, from any wireless device: like phones and tablets.

HI,
I have an HP LaserJet CM415fnw.
I would like to print only with the black cartridge even if I want to print from a phone or tablet, or for anyone that wants to use the printer and doesn't know how to set up the printer to print only in black.
Thank you.

[SOLVED]X11 video output only with ati open source drivers

Hi everyone,
my nvidia graphics card died recently and I replaced it with an ATI Radeon HD 4870, which in hindsight might have been a mistake.
I installed the catalyst driver at first, ran into some problems, finally decided to switch to the open source xf86-video-ati driver. Followed the ati wiki, but ended up with X11 video output only. Can't watch anything full screen, general performance is sluggish. The output of xvinfo is:
screen #0
no adaptors present

CS4: Adobe Encoder encodes 1280x720 with black frame around it...?

Hi there, ripping my hair out trying to figure this one out :\
I have a few film clips that I shot in 1920x1080 with a Canon T1i and edited in Adobe Premiere CS4. I noticed at first that there were large black vertical bars on either side of the preview window, almost as though the source footage wasn't big enough to fit it, but it seemed to be fine when exporting... however, on exporting, I wind up with a video that is my original footage, in 1280x720, inside a black frame that fills the rest of the 1920x1080 specification. Anybody know a fix for this? I'm just trying to encode the film in 1920x1080 with the editing.
Thanks in advance!!!

Nevermind, figured it out
The pixel ratio was in HD Anamorphic 1.33 instead of "square pixels". I'm still getting used to this program, silly thing to overlook
Thanks a million for the help though. Truly appreciated.

Media Encoder CC 14 renders with black frame at the end

Hello,
my Media Encoder running on Mac Yosemite makes a black frame at the end of h264 clips...
How can i fix this?
Thanks

I just figured out - it might be a quicktime viewer problem...

Printer aligns BUT only with Black and Blue all other diagnostics print with all colours

Initially when installed the printer REFUSED to align, took 7 attempts (OK I have heard of Einsteins quote !). Each time I used the printer screen to ALIGN PRINTER - the process failed. So I looked on the web, and:
Cleaned the cartridges,
Cleared the vents
Removed and cleaned the printhead
Prayed
Tried again
All to no avail, so then I tried doing the diagnostics via the PC software, and here the mystery deepened.
When running the HP Photosmart B210 Series tool box I got three differing results from the three printing options
A Print Quality Diagnostics Page gave me Ba full five colour printout
Align Printheads gave me black and blue lies/boxes/grids and the Alignement Successful message
Print Diagnostic info gave me all four colours with lots of meaningful info including the 73 Print head Calibration COnfidence Level:0
Any Ideas ANYONE, before I bin this and buy a Kodak or Epson in disgust
This question was solved.
View Solution.

What exactly is the issue? The alignment aligns the color printhead to black printhead, and only one color (cyan for your printer) and black are needed for that. (There is likely an additional set of blocks that prints gray blocks fading to white. This section is used to calibrate the energy for the colors.) The other test pages you printed will print various diagnostic or test pages which will use all the colors.
A successful alignment page requires the page be printed on unused white paper and requires that the black and cyan sections are printing properly.

Fcpx Random black frames

I've been using FCP X to do simple projects until I can master it. We all know it's buggy even on the best macs, but today shocked me.
Random black frames littered through out the video. Not a lot, but even one black frame ruins the shot. I shoot interviews and b/roll of businesses for a company and then upload the footage, I like to do a little pre edit to organize and delete unnecessary footage in FCP X.
I've been liking the new tools, the new interface and the way it handles different formats. Yesterday it was freaking out a little on the output, but today I got random black frames on the HD footage and complete video static on a clip in my SD output. It crashed a lot yesterday, that I can understand (kinda), but actual glitches in the output? OMG, that is just wrong. It makes me wonder if any of my other projects I outputted have a similar problem but the client didn't tell me about it.
Wow, back to FCP 7 till they work this out.
It's like my IPhone, it's a fantastic device with all these features, but the phone part is worst then my last phone.
You can have revolutionary video tools in the software, but it had better output perfect video. That's it's main job.
Anybody else have problem with black frames?
RICK

Thanks for your reply, Szalam.
Yes, I am very familiar with the bug report process. I wanted to see if anyone else had the same issue hoping that I could find an immediate solution. As it stands, the temporary workaround is to render to something other than Cineform AVI.
Sorry, I am quite busy right now (large project with a short deadline) and don't have the time to do much test rendering. When I get a minute I will definitely do more tests with different codecs etc.
I would be happy to upload some P2 footage when time allows. Is there a way to upload directly to this site, or is there another preferred method? I haven't attempted uploading files to this forum before.
Thanks again for your help!

Weird BLACK FRAMES ...

Folks, I'm suddenly getting these weird black frames around every selected item or window. It first emerged when I was working in Photoshop, and suddenly a large black frame covered part of the monitor (emerging off the screen). This black frame would disappear & reappear when I would click out of the image area (clicking inside a palette, or other item)... as soon as I would begin rendering again, boom, the black frame reappeared. Sometimes it would partially conform to the boundaries of my image, sometimes off to the side and running off the screen as though it was indicating the boundary for some large phantom window.
When closing Photoshop, the weirdness continued, with black frames forming around ANY icon or entry window. ----- I tried restarting my Mac, even shutting the machine off for awhile and rebooting. The frames came back.
Also... in the Apple pull down menu along the top, there are now 2 Restart lisings, 2 shutdown listings, and 2 Logout listings (I don't recall ever seeing TWO of each of these).
Is my OS corrupted somehow? (as it is NOT isolated to Photoshop, but appears constantly.)
Thanks for any tips or notions!

THANK you so much folks!! That was it.
What a weird little anomoly. What is that "Voice over" function intended for anyway???

IMovie flashes black (missing frames) on output only

Anyone run into this problem? The project is fine when I preview it, but when I export it (or send it directly to YouTube) it comes up with missing frames (black frames.) It just flashes to black intermittantly with the missing frames.
Very strange ... thanks for any and all help!

The same thing happens to me and have no idea why, the other videos ive made have come out good but since this one had more videos than pictures, it flashes a black screen but cant find no where how to fix that.

Each time I create a Text Frame it appears colored with black?

Every time I create a Text Frame with the Type tool in InDesing CS5.5 in a document named "02_End.indd", (this happen only for this file) the it appears filled with black color. On the other documents this does not happen (the text frames are with no fill).
Can anyone tell me how can I change the default color of the Text frames?
Please help me?

Make sure you don't have anything selected. Then look in the swatches palette. If you see the default fill is black, set it to [None].
If not, it may be your default object style, or possibly a document corruption -- if you suspect the latter, you could try to Remove Document Corruption as per the instructions at the top of this forum.

How can I do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder which does not have firewire out/input? it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite RCA output?

I need to do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder (http://store.sony.co...ber=HDRAX2000/H) ..this camcorder model does not have firewire out/input ..it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite A/V video output..
I wonder how can I plug this camcorder to the firewire port of my laptop? Browsing on internet I found that Grass Valley Company produces this converter http://www.amazon.co...=A17MC6HOH9AVE6 ..but I am not sure -not even after checking the amazon reviews- if this device will send the video signal through firewire to my laptop, in order to live streaming properly? ..anyone in this forum could help me please?
Thanx

I can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera... is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
thanx

How do I set up the printer default so that it prints black only, with all my devices and iMac

Have an Officejet 8600 Plus, used with an iMac. Also using wireless feature to print from iPads and iPhones. The printer has been setup from the iMac to print using the black ink cartridge, only. The problem is with my devices. I am unable to figure out how to set up the printer to print in black when I print from my devices. Is there a solution to this?

Hi symo46, welcome to the HP Forums. I understand you are trying to determine how to print with black ink only from your iPad. As you may have experienced using Airprint you will not have any options other than number of copies, however the HP ePrint App may have the option you are looking for.
When printing from the HP ePrint App, if you are printing Office documents or PDFs you can use black ink only.

When I create an album and then try to watch it in slideshow, I get only a black screen with a white title. No photos come up. Also when I click on an individual photo in the album, I get a white exclamation point on a black background but no big photo.

When I create an album of photos and then open the album and try to watch it by selecting "slideshow" I get only a black screen. The white title comes up briefly but then no photos, only a black screen. Also when I go back to the album and click on a thumbnail, up comes a big white exclamation point on a black background instead of the enlarged photo. Any idea what's going on?

The ! turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents.
Option 1
Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
If that fails:
Option 2
Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .
