Preview area in slow motion

I have a copy of Premiere Elements 4.0 which I have been using for quite a while and I have run across a new problem that I have never run into before. I was working on a new project when suddenly my preview area started showing everything in slow motion (complete with slowed sound) and I can't seem to get it back. Even with starting a new project and rendering the work area.
The video size I'm working with is standard YouTube size 760 x 620. It is an HD file too.
My computer specs:
Windows Vista Pro
Dual Intel Quad Cores 2.3 a head
16 gig RAM
NVidia GTX 680 MaxCore 55 (1 gig)
1.2 tb avaible HDD space
If anyone can tell me why it suddenly decided to do this, I'd be greatly thankful.
Steve

This is all the info Media Info could dig out of the file. Looks correct to me. Doing a MPEG codec has never given me a problem before on this though.

Long page edits are in slow motion

I am creating a long page with text and imbedded pictures. All my edits, placement of pictures, typing in general are in slow motion like the page is getting too large. I have 9 pictures and 3 short videos inserted and lots of text. Any idea why everything is so sluggish?

Too much stuff on the page. Nobody likes scrolling down long pages and 9 images and 3 videos is way too much.
If its sluggish in iWeb, how long will it take to download in the browser? One video with a good text description is enough per page.

Automator/Workflow actions are in "slow-motion" under Mac OS X 10.6.x

Hi,
after the update to SL some of my Automator Workflows dont work properly.
I do things like copy some part of sentence from a .rtf document and insert it into a input box of a website in firefox.
In 10.5.8 everything worked like a charm. But in 10.6.x the same workflow (also new created) works some times and the other time it slows down and the cursor moves like a slow-motion. Pixel for pixel and i cannot stop the workflow. I only can wait until the workflow is finished (takes in "slow-down" mode 30 minutes) or i do a hardreset. I wonder if anyone else such of this problems with automator under 10.6
I tested the same things with my mac mini that i didnt upgraded and it works like expected.
I think you can reproduce the behaviour, if you create a new .rtf document with numbers from one to twelve and make a workflow where you mark 4 letters, cut, bring firefox to front, paste into form, go to .rtf, mark next 4 letters, cut, go to firefox, paste into form, doing that until there are no more letters.
very curious...

the whole automator and in particular the record action was substantially rewritten in snow leopard. and the record action is slow, unreliable and you can't trouble-shoot it. it's a wonder it works at all. the only advice i can give is to use it as little as possible. if at all possible avoid it altogether. if you do need to use it try using keyboard strokes instead of the mouse movement. for example. use command+c and command+v for copying and pasting and use tabbing to choose the correct box on the page.

PDFs in Mail and Preview are very slow

I have been experiencing serious issues with PDFs, handling them in Mail, and in Preview. This problem surfaced a few weeks ago, and it is totally hogging my resources. It is like the PDF takes over my computer. It might take several minutes to load, and it never fully loads. It will keep flashing back and forth as it tries to draw the whole document.
It seems especially problematic within graphic files, or those with shading or cross-hatching. As an Architect, I am handing files like that all the time. I bought my MBP Retina display a few weeks ago with the hopes that the 16 MB of RAM would make things run smoothly, but the only advantage is that restarts are pretty quick.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Slow Motion Video in Revel

Few questions...
When will slow motion playback be supported?
Are the slow motion ranges saved in the video or is this extra information not stored in the video container?
Will the ability to save video to the camera roll be added?

I'll take this feature request to product management. I can't say if or when such support will be available. In the meantime, as a workaround use iMovie to export your video with the slo-mo effect to your Camera Roll so Revel can import the processed version.

Slow Motion songs

I have a 3rd Generation Nano and for some reason my songs on the ipod have slowed down. I mean they sound like they are in slow motion, like they are being played on "Tape" and someone is holding the tape making the song sound funny.
Has anyone run in to this problem and if so is there a fix?
Thanks

One of two options: iTunes 7.x is a bit sluggish to say the leat. So, either turn OFF the option in Advanced > Importing to "Play songs while importing" or don't play the CD whiles its importaning.
Whats happening is that it imports the music off the CD faster than real time - many times faster. SO whiles its reading the data in for importing you are listening to the music in real time, which means the laser of the CD player has to jump back and forth on the CD to both IMPORT the music and PLAY the music.
Easy suggestion: Start importing the music, wait til it mananges to get at least one song fully imported, then goto your iTunes Library, find that newly imported song, then play the imported copy. Then let the import do its thing. WIth todays machines, the import takes only a few minutes. THis is more the fault of how a CD player works than iTunes.

Slow motion and recording options on x1

Is it possible to view a recording in slow motion?
Is it possible to capture an entire program if recording is started after the program begins?
The previous dvr offered through Comcast was able to do both. Also, it didn't lose recording capacity due to those early a.m. reboots, which is often rare and rather obscure movies are shown.

Yes, but only in that definition, no frame by frame playback as you could do in the past. No, the recording will begin once you press the record button. The TSB (time shift buffer) does not capture the begiinin of a show any longer for recording purposes. Capacity or capablities on that early recording statement? If you have cloud enabled, the daily reboot should not affect your recordings....

How can I flip my iphone videos on my PC? My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion

My videos from my iphone are horrible when I transfer them to my PC. How can I improve the video on my PC? Can I just convert the files to WMV? When the video plays the speed is off, it's half slow-motion and staggers into normal play. The clips are slightly cut as well, the clips do not roll continuously. I'm taling about videos that are no more than 2 minutes long. I'm frustrated and I could really use some advice-my kids basketball games is what I'm recording and I'm trying to send them to my family (they are not very tech savvy). Thanks

Not it's only function but one for which it was most admirably suited, which is why I really hope someone can find a work around. I am hoping my post to the Apple feedback may prompt a useful response from Apple and I live in hope that my post here will elicit a useful response from another user. I did not miss the the text at the top of the feedback form but you presumably missed my initial text, 'someone here can explain' or my subsequent 'work around from another user'
Just in case anyone reading this has a large collection of music videos, video podcasts or iTunes U then DO NOT upgrade your iPad to iOS 5. If you are considering purchasing the iPad as a useful mobile device to experience these media organised in your iTunes please don't as you will be wasting your money. (unless someone on this forum knows of a way to undo the mess created by those infallible folks at Apple)
Yes I know it does other things but the purpose I bought it for doesn't work anymore

Why are the videos I take on my iPad mini playing back in slow motion?

I took a video of one of my tennis students on my iPad mini and when I went to view it, the video seemed like it was in slow motion or skipping frames. It definitely wasn't smooth and in normal time. The strange thing is that I shot the video again on my wife's iPad 2 and it did the same thing.

If you have a computer, you can import the photos to the computer and then delete them for the iPad. You don't even need iTunes to so this, because you aren't syncing, you are importing.
take a look at this.

Are bursts and slow motion videos transfered as they are to a PC

I wasn't sure how to ask this question in short. I have an iPhone 5s and a Windows computer. When I take a burst photo, how does it work when I transfer the photos/videos directly to my computer? (not going through iTunes) Do the bursts save as individual pictures or are they lost? or maybe you can only see them on your iPhone? Also with slow motion videos, I know they don't save as slow motion unless you save them again as if that was real life capture. I do believe that they become slow motion again if i put them back on my phone, as the format is probably the same. Is this true?

Premiere Pro just doesn't do slow motion very well, especially not with 24 fps footage. You can help correct that:

When I sync videos onto my PC they are 'faded' and play in slow motion. Any suggestions

When I sync videos onto my pc they are 'faded' and run in slow motion. Is this a fault with my pc or the sync process?

Photos transferred from your computer to your iPhone via the iTunes sync/transfer process is a one way transfer process only - from your computer to your iPhone.
As with iTunes content, photos can be transferred to an iPhone from a single computer only. When transferring photos from another computer, all photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first with a warning message provided indicating this will happen before doing so.
Photos transferred from your computer is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, and any photos transferred from your computer should remain on your computer. If you have a single folder of photos selected to be transferred from your computer and switch to a different folder of photos, the first folder of photos currently on your iPhone will be erased from your iPhone first with a warning message provided before this occurs, but all photos transferred from your computer should remain on your computer.
Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll are not included with the iTunes sync process except for being included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process. Photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process are not included with your iPhone's backup, but these photos should remain on your computer and be included with your computer's backup along with all other important data.

Slow motion and other effects are grayed out

Just switched from iMovie 9 to 11, and can't take advantage of the slow motion, instant replay and other effects, because they are all grayed out in the Clip menu. Why? I do not see the "convert entire clip" option referred to in the help file. What is wrong?

Yes, that is it. The trailers are pretty scripted.
If you want to add an effect to a trailer, first complete the trailer.
Then, in the Project Library List view, right click on the trailer name, and select DUPLICATE. (This will give you a copy of the trailer in case you want to edit it some more.)
Then, with the trailer name still selected, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
This will turn your trailer into a normal project, and you can use any of the capabilities of iMovie, including the slow motion and instant replay effects.

Why are my clips shaking after slow motion?

I captured clips from my Canon 7d and converted the clip through mpeg stream clip, pro res, 60 frames, full HD. When I imported it into FCP and set the speed to 50% (or any speed, except normal) the top of the clip shakes the entire time, before I made the clip in slow motion there was no shake.
Any ideas why this is happening?

Did you shoot 720p 60? That is the only format that shoots 60fps.
Conform with CINEMA TOOLS. doing a speed change in FCP doesn't do it right.

Videos are importing into AfterEffects in choppy slow motion?

I am trying to make my first commercial. I used a cannon camera to shoot alot of footage.
When I watch the ".mov" file in quicktime it plays perfectly fine. However when I try to import into After Effects and hit play the video is in slow motion and is very choopy? I cant figure this out to save my life and this is a project for school! I have tried changing the settings to "hdtv1080 24" and it still is not working?
Does anyone know what I may be doing wrong??

Um, it sounds like you're doing just about everything wrong. With AE, you need to walk before you run, you have to know the basics before you can do ANYTHING of substance, and it appears you don't have the time to learn the basics. And no, there aren't any hard-and-fast answers to a situation where you need just a couple of simple things. What you think could be simple may not be in AE terms.
Do you even NEED to use AE? Why can't you use a video editing application, which is far easier to figure out?

Is it possible to play back an After Effects composition in slow motion? (CS6)

Hi,
I'd like to play back the composition in slow motion so I can make sure the animations are smooth.
I find that sometimes you see gaps in your animation when you play it back frame by frame but you only just notice that something might be off when you play the timeline back in real time. So this would be for "proofing" your footage. I find the frame by frame approach a bit tedious for a lengthy composition.
Is this possible?
Thanks

You can enforce a different framerate on the Preview palette.
