Possible to place subtitles beneath the image with 16:9?

Hi everybody,
I couldn't find away to put subtitles beneath the image with 16:9 like it would be possible with such a video in FCP: having the 16:9 video in a 4:3 image, placing the subtitle in the black under the image - the issue with FCP is that later the text becomes blurry ...
Any ideas..? best, s

If you're looking to adjust the positioning of subtitle text based on the playback system's aspect-ratio, no, DVDSP is not able to do this. This is made even more frustrating by the fact that this was possible in the Spruce product that DVDSP is based on and because many clients demand what you're asking for (subtitles always appear under letterboxed video on 4:3 monitors).
The only viable 'alternative' that I've found is to adjust the Y offset of the subtitle stream so that the bottom line (or only line) is in the letterbox area. The downside to that is, on 16:9 displays, the subtitles appear very low (though I've never encountered a setup where they are ever cut off.
If some sample code helps, this is what I use:
// Begin Font & Formatting Data
$FontName = Arial
$Bold = True
$FontSize = 28
$ColorIndex1 = 7
$ColorIndex2 = 1
$ColorIndex3 = 1
$ColorIndex4 = 3
$TextContrast = 14
$Outline1Contrast = 15
$Outline2Contrast = 15
$BackgroundContrast = 0
$HorzAlign = center
$VertAlign = bottom
$XOffset = 0
$YOffset = 20
$TapeOffset = True
// End Font & Formatting Data

  • IPad Photo App with the ability to write on the image with stylus?

    Is there a photo app for 4th generation iPad that allows me to take a picture and then write on the image with a stylus? I'm in the sign business and that would be ideal for on site assessments (write dimensions and notes)

    Creating notes using stylus on the application is not possible on Adobe Reader Touch.
    But, you can add a sticky note on the document. To add a sticky note, launch app bar, select Comments button and then select Sticky Note option and click on the point where you want you add the sticky note.

  • When i Place a PSD in Indesign it comes in at 200+% while the image frame is considerably smaller. How do i place so that the image and image frame match?

    When i Place a PSD in Indesign it comes in at 200+% while the image frame is considerably smaller. How do i place so that the image and image frame match?

    Peter,
    The screenshots tell you everything.
    The second one tells you how the image frame is automatically set up after a one-click place. It's the blue stroked rectangle with the eight control points at each corner and mid-way along the line. This image frame is generated at a proportionally correct height and width for the image it contains.
    Now, if you look at the third screenshot (click on it to see it at a larger size), you will see I've used the direct selection tool (white arrow) to click on the image within the image frame. This CLEARLY shows the image (within the image frame) is substantially larger than the frame generated to contain it. This is indicated by the yellow stroked rectangle with the eight control points at each corner and mid-way along the line.
    Notice that the blue and yellow rectangles are vastly different sizes.
    In InDesign CS5.5, when i clicked to place the image, the image would fit perfectly within its image frame. the blue and yellow rectangles would match.
    I had no need to go click on the proportional fill and centre buttons like i need to do now in CC.
    I have a keyboard shortcut to place. I can't do File > Place for the amount of images i need to place.
    So to reiterate: How do i place an image so that the image and image frame match?

  • WVC80N cannot see the image with VLC when multicasting

    I am using the WVC80N camera and have set the multicast address to 225.0.0.6 and the port to 2006 but when I try to view the image with VLC I cannot see and image. HTTP and rtsp both work but I need to use multicasting, has anyone gotten this to work?

    When you talk about the multicast , may I know if where is it set? Is it set on the route,server or computer? When you talk about VLC, where you referring to the VLC media player? Is also possible if you will show us a complete diagram on how your network has been setup so that we will be able to provide you the right recommendation.  

  • Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

    Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

    Oh wow, looks like a new feature.
    The "page" links in a stylesheet with the address "resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css". If you remove that reference, then the image displays in the old style.
    '''''Edit: Please skip the rest of this post and check out the next one.'''''
    There might be a more elegant solution than that, but you could use a bookmarklet to strip out that link when you want to view the page in its old style. A bookmarklet is a snippet of JavaScript you save on the Bookmarks toolbar for quick access.
    First, copy the following code to the clipboard (it's all one long line):
    <br>javascript:var ssheet=document.querySelector('link[href="resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css"]'); if(ssheet)ssheet.parentNode.removeChild(ssheet); void 0;
    Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, use View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar to display it. (If you aren't using the classic Menu bar, press Alt+v to call up the old View menu. Right-clicking the gray area just below the page address also allows you to display the Bookmarks Toolbar.)
    Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar (or Mac equivalent of right-click!) and choose New Bookmark.
    Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
    Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., Oldstyle Picture) and click Add.
    Now, when you want to tweak the image display, click the button to run the script.
    Manual clicking is a hassle, so it might make sense to look into other solutions. (Greasemonkey didn't seem to work; I think it might not run on .jpg files.)

  • Inconsistent results using the "places" view on the iPad with geotagged photos

    I am getting inconsistent results with geotagged photos on the iPad (both 1 and 2) OS 5.01.  It seems that sometime photos will show up in the correct location on the places view others will not ( they will not show up at all).  In fact I can have a geotagged photo in one folder, synch with iTunes and it will not show up in the places view and then move that same picture to a different folder (which becomes an album on the iPad) re-synch and it will now show up at the correct location in the places view.  All photos show up in the album view.  Everything is the latest version iTunes, iPad etc.  I can also have many photos geotagged exactly to the same location (exact same coordinates) some will show up, others will not.
    I have used different methods to geotag my photos.  At first I was using Photoshop Elements 8 until they stopped supporting geotagging photos.  Now I am using a third party application GeoSetter (excellent free application).  The GPS data is clearly in the Exif data but the results are not consistent.
    Any ideas? 

    I believe I have solved this problem myself and thought others might benefit from what I found.  It turns out to be what I believe as a glitch in iTunes.  iTunes creates a cache of all the photos that you synch with your iPad, iPhone etc.  Apparently it does not update that cache when you change the photo.  At least not the Geotagging data.  The file modify date was changing but that wasn't enough to cause iTunes to update the cache of the photos.  I deleted the cache of all the photos and re-synched and presto now all my photos where showing up at the correct location in the iPad "places" view.
    I might add that I called Apple tech support and was routed to a higher tier support person and was very disappointed with his response.  He basically told me that the "place" view in the iPad and iPhone was designed to be only used with an Apple computer and Apple software and was surprised the places view was working at all with pictures synched with a Windows based machine.  He also said he was unable to help me since he couldn't provide support for non-Apple products.  Although I understand this to a point I think he was too quick to make this decision.  The solution after all was a simple one and one I think he should have known.  I would think this cache problem would happen whether I was using Apple products as well.  I view this as a bug in iTunes.  Apple needs to compare the modified date of the file and update the cache if it has changed.

  • After sharing a folder of images with someone, is there an easy/fast way to view the images with comments?

    I shared a folder of 100 images with a friend.  She commented on the images she would like edited.  Is there an easier way to view the photos she commented on, other than clicking on each image to view the activity? 
    Thank you!

  • Is it possible to adjust or control the Image Tracer selection's colors?

    Hi there,
    I need to turn several of my photographs into vector images for textile printing.
    Is it possible to somehow adjust or control the Image Tracer selection to other colors like 10-11 (or other), instead of either 6 or 16 ?  If yes, please explain.
    Thank you,

    Sure. Tweak the settings, save it as a preset:

  • Is it possible to let KDM launch the sessions with dbus?

    well, like the subject line asks: is it possible to let KDM do something like "dbus-launch startkde" or "dbus-launch gnome-session"?
    And if yes, how? Also, shouldn't it do that by default?

    However thanks a lot for help g
    Found the answer myself: Simply sign the applet with an self-made certificate, the next time the browser is restartet there will be a promt for acceptimg the certificate.
    Cool!

  • Appending the image with Data inn table cloumn

    Hi All
    I have one table with 5 columns .My requirement is to attach one image with the data of one column based on the value.
    For Example For vaue WIP Red Image,ApprovedGreen Image,Failed ------- No Image
    The image should be appended to the satus.
    I have seen this feature in couple of Standard OA Pages But not able to find the way.
    Pls help me

    You mean, you want to show both an image and the text in the same column? It is not a standard practice and against BLAF. My suggestion will be to either use 2 separate columns or probably the text written in the image if your text list is fixed.

  • Photo has packet loss.  Can I improve the image with Aperature?

    I received a poor quality family photo (hard copy). Almost like "packet loss" on TV whereby the image edges are muted and/or missing. I wanted to enlarge the 3 X 5 inch photo but if the quality is poor at this resolution, I know enlarging will just make it worse.
    Can Aperature improve the photo quality? Compression or rendering or ??
    OR is this a photoshop opportunity?
    Please advise.
    Thanks

    Hi labratinaz;
    While I will admit I am now learning to use Aperture, IMHO this sounds like if it can be solve it will take Photoshop to do it. I don't think the adjustments in Aperture are powerful enough.

  • Is it possible to trade up to the ipad2 with my iPad?

    I bought my iPad in December of last year, and then iPad 2 came out.  Is it possible to trade up to the ipad2 ?  Would I want to?

    There are some very nice features in iPad2, but whether they'd mean much to you is up to you.  You could get a best buy voucher if you wanted to trade your iPad in there, but it would be very small in comparison to just selling your iPad yourself.  Apple won't trade you up.  They're not in the trade-in business.  But, if I were you, I'd wait a few more months.  If history repeats itself, the next generation iPad will likely be announced in the March time frame (again, if history repeats).  If you get iPad 2 now and in 4 months a newer version is announced, you might feel it would have been worth waiting.

  • Is it possible to filter or search for images with 32 bit depth

    I am trying to find all my 32 bit HDR images in Lr 5.7.1 but I cannot find any way to search or filter on bit depth. Nor does the Metadata panel in the Library module show any indication of bit depth. The information is available in Bridge (shown below). Can Lr search or filter by bit depth? (I know Geffrey Friedl has a plugin that do this search but can Lr do this natively?)

    You can use the Color > Bits Per Channel criterion in smart collections.  (There is no equivalent filter criterion.)
