Plugins and twain for CS5

I spent four hours trying to find the plugins and twain drivers for CS5 that the "read me" file for CS5 said was available for download. They even gave a link for them. Finally called them and spent another hour and and a half on the phone and was transferred three times just to find out they have not put them online yet. THANKS GUYS. Why don't you put them up "before" telling people that they are there.
Also, why were these features taken out. It is kind of like buying a new car and when they deliver it the radio is missing and they tell you to come back in a couple of days and look in the back of the parking lot for it and put it in yourself. Then when you you can't find they say "oops, we forgot to put it there."
Anyway does any one know when "picture package, web photo gallery, twain and other old wonderfull plugins" are going to be available?
If you use these features you might as well wait to buy CS5!

That's really the point--the problem isn't so much that Adobe didn't have the TWAIN/extras plugin pack ready to go at CS5 launch (though I'd much rather they did), it's that the most obvious link to said pack:
http://www.adobe.com/go/ps_cs5_plugins_mac_en
...doesn't lead to a placeholder page that says "These plugins aren't available yet, please be patient." ...or better yet "...fill out this form to get an email when they are ready for download." Heck, it doesn't even lead to a 404--it immediately (and confusingly) redirects to the Adobe home page. It's that an official URL for the product exists and is linked from more than one place, but doesn't have anything there to tell people what's up when they use the built-in Help feature and click on it.
Thus, when I did a search from within CS5 for TWAIN, it came up with an article that answered my question exactly. I clicked the link, and ended up at the Adobe home page. "Huh? Oh, I guess I have to search for it myself..." A half hour wasted later I finally surmised that, indeed, it just wasn't available for download yet. Launch weekend, I suppose that's understandable. A week later, I'd at least expect a placeholder. (And I never did find the above-linked document that does explain what's up in my own searching--I just got the helpful-but-useless help page I linked).
I also wish I'd known about this before I started my 30 day trial; for all I know it's going to be over a month before the plugin is ready, which would mean I would have to buy CS5 without having any idea whether the TWAIN interface is going to be so crash-prone as to be useless, or just fine.

Using VST plugins and ASIO for everything?

Just a thought. Oh how much I'd like this!
To be able to use universal VST plugins and ASIO for everything directly from Windows would be ideal. To put this simply, making the Creative Windows "mixer" a true equivelent of a pro-software mixing app (Ableton, ProTools, Sonar, Cubase, or any other) in terms of absolute control for all Audio effects and I/O.
If Creative won't ever do this even on their next gen cards, somebody or some company that knows a decent mixer setup should write such a replacement mixer soon offered at a fair price (if not free) that will do so with easy, complete, reliable integration.
Long and specific
VST related:
- Use X-Ram to cache inserted VST plugins. Now theres a potential great reason for it since it obviously doesnt use any to cache the I/O bus like ALL OTHER periphials that have Ram caches. Its use is dictated by software, so why not?
- Allow setting some tiny but likely necessary amount of X-Ram as an additional plugin audio I/O buffer. This should be much less than what mixing software needs for this setting since that would all have to pass the CPU.
- Use Creative's processing hardware directly instead of the CPU so VST plugins won't increase CPU usage (within reason of course).
- Yield overhead when using lots or higher-demand plugins if set in bit-match mode. Why waste all that power for SRC when Voxengo R8Brain or plenty of other pro software can do that a million times better and way faster in non-real-time? OK, only Creative could work this one in.
- Why VST plugins? I'd trust my favorite EQ, digital limiter or whatever that has 64-bit float internal precision and oversampling vs. a 24-bit (rounding-error heaven) with no oversampling like the built in Creative ones.
- If Creative has confidence in the quality of their own propriety effects, doesn't have to be VST but simply making them usable as a ReWire bridged devices into most any host with parameter automation controls and all. Obviosly these could have much lower latency than VST that normally relies on CPU processed software code.
- The only argument against this is that some VST plugins have huge latencies. Optional latency delay to keep tracks
- Allow Creatives hardware to insert as a ReWire slave or otherwise bridged device to ASIO-based apps so VST's can be outsourced from demanding more CPU when mixing. I could also add MIDI plugin effects as well.
ASIO related:
- Allow changing any and all audio I/O routing for individual channels on the fly for Windows and ANY software (not just ASIO compatible stuff). Just like in Ableton, Pro Tools, and every other WELL designed "mixer".
- Treating XP itself and any software that normally goes through DX/MME/etc to use this ASIO mixer by making it appear as an insert send/return in the mixer so it can get routed and processed individually to my liking.
- Can insert send/return signals for any DX/MME/etc program to/from any track or #tracks in any combination up to some reasonable limit with pre/post gains. At least several send/returns slots per channel.
- A game that uses ASIO would be sweet. 0% FPS drop. IMO DX/MME/wave-mapper sound sucks. No control, many wasted CPU cycles, and horrible latency.
- Ability to save/load PROGRAM-specific routing chains. Having it so simly running a certain program will automatically insert it how/whereever I specified, if not default, with all relevant I/O settings, including plugins and related settings that were put in the insert send/return path series to that program of course.
- Put real-time SRC, compression encoding/decoding, or any Creative effects as well whereever I want in the signal chain, whether universal to a track I/O or program insert send/return I/O.
- Ability to record tracks or the master likewise.
- No digital feedback possible caused by monitering/recording/routing configs that would be possible in any decent mixing software. Surely not ever from a default setting or made sometimes impossible to prevent like on the Audigy series. Well unless I do something stupid that SHOULD cause feedback. Speak of a truly worthless mixer, this BTW is the ONLY reason I couldn't just go the manual route and run my host all the time, forcing ALL sounds through it for real-time playback with my Audigy. I'm assuming XiFi's Audio-Creation Mixer doesn't have this horrible problem.
- Imagine putting any combination of sounds in 7.1 surround, monitering specific channels to any physical output, or up/downmixing 5.1 as it plays in real-time, etc. any thing like this possible instantly with a few mouse clicks! This would be SO EASY and completely possible to implement, most of the above right onto existing XiFi's as is.
It's not like it would be competing with pro-interface rackmount products so no harm to Creative. I sure as h*ll wouldn't record with any soundcard's analog pre's or unbalanced connections for that matter. Guess I just love the interface and control of a REAL mixer that can do it all.

But would it be possible to somehow use the power of the card to take on some of the load of the cpu, users would surely then see alot more benifits from these cards.
I don't see why this isn't possible with enough X-RAM. Why no host apps support offloading VST plugin cache buffers and rendering threads to it? I'm probly returning my XiFi and sticking with my old Audigy 1 until either I blow it up or Creative makes a REAL upgrade with most the aforementioned features that literally COULD'VE been implemented in XiFi's current hardware.
If they do, they'll have my business and many others I'm pretty sure. Creative, if your listening and you want to like triple your sales - PLEASE get a clue and get the software end right. Microsoft or any audio host software developers, heres your (fat) chance if Creative wont do whats really their responsibility.
If ALL apps were forced to pass through ASIO as I mentioned, this could force all apps and games to use part of X-RAM as an I/O buffer no matter what specific support is. The same way a video card can offload ALL video including Windows, not just when running certain games, or even worse, certain audio apps lol that specifically support video RAM and DX performance controls! That would be the stupidest, most worthless idea and why Video Cards don't waste their hardware this way. And yet this is what XiFi currently does regarding audio. Somebody change this SOON.
This would be SO cheap and easy for Creative toss together and implement and would solve EVERYONE's problems and make ALL games at least get SMOOTH AUDIO. He!! Creative could charge $30 extra for it or just push out a new line of cards and itd still be worth it. Creative, did you read that part? More profit$$$ Like a video card upgrade, I EXPECT a night vs. day improvment but as it stands, XiFi is simply a glorified Audigy that costs more but much LESS likely to work right.
More importantly, its use of ASIO (the real deal) remains no less limited than an old Creative card from way back when. If Creative wants their soundcard to integrate with software better, learn from Nvidia/Ati and deliver the goods as they've done it all along.

Problems with Crop and TWAIN in CS5?

I have not been using Photoshop lately other than keeping up with updates. When I started a project yesterday, I ran into two new issues.
The Crop tool no longer works. I frame the area and when I double click to Crop, the entire image Crop's. This is the same in 64 bit or 32 bit. Apparently it started after one of the latest updates. I'm working around it by using a Mask to Crop but I'd like it to work right. Any idea's?
Then I discover that in the 32 bit version, when I go to File > Import the link to my Epson Scanner is gone. I know it won't work in the 64 bit which is a real pain, but it did work in the 32 bit version, again until one of the latest updates. Since I did not use it for a while I'm not sure which update was the culprit. Any idea's? I'm doing thousands of scans and doing the scanning as a stand alone instead of directly into Photoshop adds a small amount of time to each one which adds up to a lot. I'm actually considering going back to an older version.
I'd switch Scanners, but Epson is so much better and the software so much better, I'll go down kicking and screaming. Really sad about the TWAIN insanity going on for years. Sucks in fact.
Windows 7 64 bit, CS5 fully updated. The Epson Scanner Software is the same as it was when it was still working. No issues other than the two I mention here.

Thanks so much. First thing I checked. It has rectified itself. One of those mysteries I guess. It is working OK now. Hitting clear is a habit as I've made that error more than a few times
As to the scanner, they have not updated since 2009. Great scanner but I may have to buy another. Tried another from work, but won't let me mask out multiple scans at once. With the size of scans of negatives, I truly need 64 bit. To many updates this year and to little money. I have to upgrade from the CS Suite to CS5 and I've only been doing PS. Like so many others these huge update costs from Adobe are strangling for small business. Sorry Adobe, but it is to high.

Need CS4 3 Column Liquid Head and Footer for CS5

My professor is using the CS4 version of 3 Column Liquid with Header and Footer and this template has changed in CS5. I find it hard to follow his examples without the proper file. He says to change background color of a sidebar, and half of my website changes color. Is there a way I can get this template please?

PlugIn and Swingall for applets not enough

I've seen a lot of messages for applets that won't work with the sun plugin. I have the plugin installed; I have also added swingall.jar to my applet directory and set the ARCHIVE value to it, and can see it being processed. I still get 'class not found' with the following example. A clear answer to how to solve this would be helpful to a lot of people. (And yes, I've run the HTML converter.)
Jbuilder 4.0 automatically adds action listeners for buttons, the browser cannot find the class for this:
jButton2.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
This line is listed with java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError in the java plugin console.
The code runs fine in the applet viewer.
What else has to be included for this applet to run with the plugin?

hello; i just erased the post i started with, because my status has changed. i searched in the firefox folder and found the uninstall folder, and this time, uninstall worked perfectly, and it gave me an option to save my personal info! YAY! i installed ff 3.6.24 without a hitch; FF is Baaaaaack!
However, I did get a window saying my computer doesn't have enough resources for the latest version of 8, but that I should install the latest compatible version of firefox; which version would that be, I wonder? It takes me to the same page with the ff 3.6.24 downloads. I already have that now.
I am going to mark this as solved; thank you cor-el for helping me with this problem and sticking with me as i whined and moaned, and tried to get the courage to "just do it!"

MAC AE plugin: Bundle scripts with plugin and access for execution

Hi there,
as the title says I'm trying to execute some scripts from my plugin but I can't figure out how to get the plugins location to access the bundled resources. I'm pretty new to the plugin development so can sombody please point me in the right direction?
I found in the SDK guide the PF_GET_PLATFORM_DATA but there is no example that is using it.
Thanks in advance
Fabian

Hi shachar thanks for your help,
I tried reading a text file that is bundled with the .plugin package without path but I had no luck. The structure within the package is like this (tree looks better with monospaced fonts):
├── Info.plist
├── MacOS
│   └── EXECUTABLE
├── PkgInfo
└── Resources
    ├── EXECUTABLE.rsrc
    ├── bundle-test.txt
    ├── example.txt
And my code is like this:
                string line;
                string alllines("");
                ifstream myfile ("../Resources/example.txt");
                if (myfile.is_open()){
                    while ( myfile.good() ){
                        getline (myfile,line);
                        cout << line << endl;
                        alllines+=line;
                    myfile.close();
                    suites.UtilitySuite3()->AEGP_ReportInfo( S_my_id,alllines.c_str());
                }else{
                    cout << "Unable to open file";
                    suites.UtilitySuite3()->AEGP_ReportInfo( S_my_id,"Error Reading file");
So my result is always my error reading file.
I also tried using getcwd like this:
                char cwd[256];
                if (chdir("/tmp") != 0)
                    perror("chdir() error()");
                else {
                    if (getcwd(cwd, sizeof(cwd)) == NULL)
                        perror("getcwd() error");
                    else
                        printf("current working directory is: %s\n", cwd);
But ther i get a current working directory as: /private/tmp
So how did you manage to read files bundled with your plugin? Magic?
Maybe there is something else I missed.
- I added the files to my source directory.
- I went in xcode rightclick onto the project and selected "add files to PROJECTNAME"
- in the TRAGETS Tab for the project the file is under "Copy Bundle Resources"
- When building the plugin the file I want to read is within the .plugin package
What else could go wrong?
I could also create a script that escapes my script and creates an .h file with a string where I could read from, but this would feel like giving up and I'm not there yet.
I appriciate your help a lot. (to everyone and specially to shachar)

How apply rolling shutter plugin AND stabilisation in CS5.5 ?

When i apply the rolling shutter plugin (The Foundry) AND the After Effetcs's stabilisation , the fisrt effect is cancel by the second one , i've tried to pre-compose my first layer with the rolling shutter effect but AE move it into the new composition .
Why ?
How could i apply thoose two effects ?

Both plug-ins analyze the footage externally. Therefore, you'll have to either apply one plug-in and then either render the shot and apply the other or pre-compose moving all attributes to the new comp and apply the second. Depending on the shot, you may want to apply rolling shutter first, pre-comp and stabilize, or if the shot has more movement than rolling shutter problems, stabilize first then apply rolling shutter.
The Warp Stabilizer has rolling shutter compensation that is pretty good. Are you using it?
Hope this helps. It's not a bug, it's a workflow.

Using XMP Lib in a plugin for CS5.0 Windows

Hello
I have been able to compile the XMP-Toolkit-SDK-5.1.2 and use it successfully in a plugin for CS5.0 Mac OS X.
Im now trying to do the same on windows, but with no luck. Im using MS Visual C++ 2008 express edition.

How to install plugin and exta filter in photoshop cs ? and any special filter for special effects ?

how to install plugin and exta filter in photoshop cs ? and any special filter for special effects ?
kindly recommend me any best one and tel me step by step how i will add more plugins n filters

A Plug_in normally come with an installer or install instructions. Check the documentation for the plug-in you trying to install. It sounds like you don't know what plug-ins you want to install. In that case you don't need to install any. At some point you may read about a plug-in and what it can do and feel you have a need for it. Then you will have a reason to install a plug-in that is not installed by default. There may also be a cost involved most worthwhile plug-ins are not free.
Adobe Optional Plug_ins downloads are Plugins Adobe want to remove from Photoshop and no longer install by default. Also at some point in time these will no longer install into the current Photoshop for Adobe will remove feature or interfaces the use. For example the CS5 optional plugins will install in Windows CS6 perpetual version 13.0.1.3 but not in Subscription version 13.1.2 or perpetual Mac version 13.0.6 fot its 64bit only and the Mac CS5 optional plug-in for Picture package is only a 32bit plug-in.
You will need to keep and maintain old versions of Photoshop if Adobe remove features you use in new versions of Photoshop.

Existing Actions and Plugins Compatible with Photoshop CS5?

I have actions and plug-in products, and while I've done everything I can to make them future-proof, I'm wondering if any Photoshop CS5 beta testers can speak to whether existing actions and plugins are generally compatible with Photoshop CS5?
Specifically:
Are existing 32 bit Windows (PC) plugins proving to be compatible with Photoshop CS5?
Are existing 64 bit Windows (PC) plugins proving to be compatible with Photoshop CS5?
Are existing actions (both platforms) proving to be compatible with Photoshop CS5?
I'm anxiously awaiting the go-ahead to download my copy to verify everything, but I'm just trying to get a feel for whether I'll have work to do. I'm hoping for the level of compatibility seen in CS3 and CS4 - all my software worked perfectly with no changes.
Thanks.

I appreciate you all taking the time to answer, but none of you has actually said what DOES happen with your existing actions / plugins and CS5 beta.
I know that experience with one set of actions and plugins doesn't guarantee operation with another, but if, for example, someone actually stated, "all my old plugins failed to work with CS5" or "they all seemed to work okay" then I'd have a better idea of what to expect.
Please keep in mind I've been developing commercial actions since PS6 and plugins since CS2, and all my software works on all 32 bit versions and 64 bit CS4 on Vista x64 and Windows 7 x64, so I'm intimately familiar with what might happen and what should happen. Plus I've programmed them to be quite resilient, and I don't expect any of the CS5 feature changes to break them. What I don't know is whether Adobe has fundamentally altered the plugin interface this time around, or has deprecated any old filters, causing a plugin or action that used to work to fail now. The word "rewrite" has been used to describe CS5, and that has me wondering.
In short, I'm really looking for actual experience with the CS5 beta here.
Wish I could get the CS5 SDK already. I don't understdand why Adobe doesn't release that in advance.
Thanks.

I am trying to connect Garritan Personal Symphony to Logic Express and Garageband. A dialog box pops up and asks for plugin Garritan-P. Where do I find it and what do I do with it. I can't locate this plugin doing searches on any of the porgrams.

I'm not sure which version of Garritan Personal Orchestra you have or when you are getting a window pop-up, but check this link for starters:

After downloading the "new version" of Java 6 times, my plugin-check page states that it has disabled my "outdated version" and asks for me to upgrade. What do?

Background:
I have had this problem for several months, now. This problem began when an update came for Java on the Firefox Plugin-check. I promptly installed the new Java update. But the Firefox update wouldn't register that I downloaded it, even after I refreshed the page. So, I got rid of the old Java, and downloaded the new Java again. When the page continued to display the same message it had before, I downloaded it a few more times. Finally, Firefox stopped saying that I was out of date. Then a few weeks later maybe, I check Firefox Plugin, and on the page it says that I am outdated in Java. So I downloaded Java again. But Java was still in the list, with red and said that it needed to be updated. I restarted the computer. Then, I restarted Mozilla Firefox with no add-ons. When Java still appeared that it needed to be updated, I gave up and didn't do a thing more about it.
Problem:
Today I decided to check my plugins. Java was not in update the list, and at the top a banner stated, "Missing JAVA? For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Java. Please upgrade to the latest version." I clicked "upgrade to the latest version" and was led to the Java page. I clicked the download button. My cache stated that this was the (6) download of that same Java plugin (see background). I chose to re-download it anyways. But Firefox still insists that I have not downloaded it.
Question:
Do I need to go to the control panel of Java and change something? Do I need to fix some setting on Firefox? Should I disable Java altogether, delete all Java-related files on my computer, and start all over with Java? What should I do?

Try using http://ninite.com/java/ninite.exe to install Java. Please note that even though you download it you have to double click it to get it to run and install.

I've checked my current plugins and it still shows Adobe Acrobat Version 7 for Netscape (7.0.9.50) I tried to do the update but I got an error - "Please tell Microsoft about this problem" "Send Error Report/ Don't Send".

I tried to do the update but I get the same error each time - "Please tell Microsoft about this problem" "Send Error Report/ Don't Send".
Also, do I need to Disable or Uninstall the Extension: "SEO For Firefox 3.3.4 as this was highlighted?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
