Printing Frames from hdv 720p footage

I am doing a project which requires me to print out frames of footage I have shot onto a4 and a3 paper,
When I tried to print going into quictime + selecting print i got tiny images and i need to get full a4 and a3 sizes. Is their an easy way to just line up a frame and print it out in good quility and size?.
I tried exporting out of compressor as jpeg but that did not work either.Is this Fcs fault or a printer problem or more than likely user error! i was doing test prints on a deskjet canon ip1500.
I have never tried printing on a mac only recently converted. But i desperatly need to get started I have a 6 week deadline and about 15000 frames to print!
Any help would be greatly appriaceted!

I would do it this way:
In FCP find the frame to print and select it.
-You should now see it in the "Viewer:" window.
Chose: File-Export-Using QuickTime Conversion...
-A "Save" window will open.
In the "Save" window under "Format:" chose: Still Image
- you can now click the "Options" button and chose your export settings (quality, format, etc.) then name your picture and save.
Open iPhoto, and drag your exported file in to iPhoto
In iPhoto Chose File-Print
-Chose your paper type any you will be ready to go!
Hope this helps!

Importing HDV 720p footage with HDR-HC1 - no video, but timecode!

Thanks for reading...
I'm trying to import my HDV 720p footage from the HDR-HC1.
I get timecode but no video. I can control the deck but still no video.
I used the easy set up of HDV- 720p30.
I'm even trying to use HDVxDV and I can control the deck but no video.
On the camera:
My iLINK is off. Settings set to HDV. Firewire is plugged in to HDV port.
I tried:
Different computers.
Different versions of FCP.
Different firewire ports.
Restarting.
Anyone have this camera? I've been working on this for 5 hours now...

Joshua
You really need to let us know what the original camera and HDV format was so that others here looking for answers can benefit from your issue. It was not known that you even had a tape recorded from another source in your original post and that would have made a big difference to the answers you where looking for. *There are many different flavors of HDV and not all work together with the various manufactures hardware.* It is clear to me that you found this out the hard way, and if you didn't post your last thank you post we wouldn't have known either.
There are many setting within FC that can be confusing and this is the place to come and ask for help. It is also the place you will get real answers to solve your issues. Jerry and I gave you solid answers to your original post and as always it is nice to see the Green or Gold Stars of reward for helping. But what is troubling to see is the other poster (who you mark as Solved) didn't understand your issue (due to the lack of original details) and thinks you have the same problem he does, *and he didn't even offer up any answers.* Know the next guy searching for answers will see the Green Star and look there first for his answers and there won't be one.
There are so many variables to factor when giving advice and many times we ask for more details first. I wish I had asked.
Good Luck

Printing frames from animation?

I have a 4 second animation in Photoshop CS4 made of 100 frames. Keep in mind each frame consists of many layers.
I need to print each individual frame. What is the easiest/quickest/most convenient way to do this?
This is for a project due VERY soon, and everyone I've asked doesn't know the answer. I need help with this as soon as possible.
Thank you.

I’m not really experienced with Photoshop’s Animation-features, so I’m not sure about the Action- and Script-ability of the Animation-features, but you could ask in the Photoshop Scripting Forum.
Other that that one work-around might be to use File > Export > Render Video with File Options > Image Sequence to export the Frames and subsequently print those files, might it not?

Printing frames

How can I print frames from FCP?
Thank you for an easy answer

A frame of video?
Place the playhead on the frame you want, then go to File->Export->Using QuickTime Conversion. Choose 'Still Image' from the Format menu and the file type (TIFF, PSD, PNG, etc) from the Option menu. If there was any movement in the frame you selected, you may need to deinterlace the image prior to printing.
Once you've exported the frame as an image file, you can use Photoshop or other program for printing.

How do I Clone dust spots from video across footage? I can do on individual frames but don't know ho

How do I Clone dust spots from video across footage in CC? I can do on individual frames but don't know how to batch process .
How do I save it after? Render?

To fill in the void in the background, you can use the clone tool. However, for a large area that may not work well.
A good alternative is to use a "digital patch". With the rectangular marquee tool , select a pleasing substitute from somewhere else in the picture (not a fire hydrant!), then place this on its own layer (CTRL+J), and with the move tool position the patch and resize it if indicated
You should also explore the Recompose tool (ALT+CTRL+R) which may work well for your purpose.

Print Out Still Frames From HD Video

I am importing HD video into iMovie 08. I have made a few still frames from the video for printing. I could not export them to iPhoto or Photoshop Elements 2.
How can I make HD video prints? Do I need new software?

I have made a few still frames from the video for printing. I could not export them to iPhoto or Photoshop Elements 2.
Select the "still frame" sequence and use the "Reveal in Finder" option to take you to the saved "still image" in the named_Project package. If you then double-click the image, it will open in Preview. Using Preview, you can print the image or save it to any of the available image formats in any "visible" location for later access by whatever graphic application you wish to use.

Detecting bad frames in HDV footage

HI, i just installed the update, i was really looking forward to the bug fix to detect bad frames in HDV footage, this was the update to cs3 and cs4 had it to begin with -
Improved handling of MPEG streams
The Premiere Pro 3.2.0 update provides improved handling of MPEG files. Errors in the MPEG stream can occur during recording due to tape dropouts, record start/stop glitches, timecode breaks, and a variety of other causes. Bad frames caused by these MPEG stream errors are now better identified in 3.2.0 during file indexing and playback. Because older MPEG index files and conformed audio files (those existing before the 3.2.0 update) do not take advantage of the improved MPEG handling, these files should be deleted to avoid compatibility issues.
am disapointed as this is what i have been looking forward to, i guess am still stuck with cs3.
here was the post i created 3 moths ago: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3114477

Hallo,
Ich denke ich bin hier richtig.
Frage inn Deutsch bitte um Hilfe.
Adobe CS5. v.5.02
PC CPU- i7-930.
P6X58Premium Asus Board.
Win 7 Ultimat 64Bit
Das Programm soll alle AVCHD Daten von Camcordern direkt lesen könne und auch bearbeiten können.
Dateiendung: MTS.
Erkannt als AVC/ H.264 Datei.
Diese kann CS5 nicht sauber abspielen.!
Egal ob SSD Festplatte oder SATA II- Schnellste von WD- er spielt diese MTS Daten nur
mit starken Artefakten ab.
Der Störende Ablauf wirkt Pulsierend Rythmisch, so als wüdern die Farben
in dem Video abblättern wollen und verschieben sich dabei. Erklären kann man das nicht man muss es sehen.
Wenn die Datei gerändert wird geht es wohl besser aber auch nur dann, wenn diese Datei in der Timeline Gelb oder Rot ist.
Ansonsten kann man diese datei nicht rendern.
Dann muss man die Datei über CS5 exportieren.
Ich habe das MXO2mini Matrox und muss dann ein solches Format wählen.
Der mediaplayer von Win7 kann meine MTS Datei sauberst abspielen. Kristallklar.
Die umgewandelte Datei von CS5 kann dann CS5 abspielen.
Der Mediaplayer spielt die Datei dann nur totakl Verzittert wieder, da ist keine Freude am Videoschnitt zu erleben.
Hat jemand eine Idee was das für eine Ursache hier vorliegt?
Ist das problem der artefackte schon bekannt? Ich kann leider kein englisch und ich komme auch nicht in ein deutsches Adobe forum sondern lande immer nur hier.
Für jede Idee bin ich dabkbar. RoDo

Print single frame from iMovie

How do I capture and print a single frame from an iMovie clip?

First, get an app called MPEG Streamclip, which is free. (google MPEG Streamclip from Squared 5)
Open MPEG Streamclip.
In iMovie, select the clip you need. Then, right-click/Reveal in Finder. You will see it highlighted in Blue in the Finder.
Drag this clip from the Finder into MPEG Streamclip
In MPEG Streamclip, move the playhead to the frame you want.
In MPEG Streamclip, click FILE/EXPORT FRAME.
Choose JPEG, TIFF, or PNG and give it a name.
You can then drag this photo into iPhoto.

How do I create a freeze frame from footage and extend that for 5 seconds?

I have a quicktime screen grab movie I've imported, and I want to hold on a certain frame that's at the very beginning of the clip, and then proceed with the movie when the voiceover (separate soundtrack) gets to a certain point.
iMovie 11.
Thanks
doug

Hi Doug,
Position the playhead/skimmer (vertical red line) at the very beginning of the clip. The playhead should snap to the first frame, provided you have this turned on in the menu item View > Snap to Ends.
Without moving the playhead, right-click (or Control-click) and select Add Freeze Frame from the pop-up menu. The default duration is 4 seconds (although this setting can be changed for individual projects in File > Project Properties). To adjust the duration in the timeline, double-click on the freeze frame to open the Inspector. In the Clip tab you can change the duration by typing in a new time.

I am trying to import i frame from an SD90 video camera to iMovie, but it does not see the camera. Footage goes to i photo Why?

I am trying to import video ( i frame) from an sd90 ( listed for mac) but i movie does not see the camera. It imports into i photo. Is this normal ?

If you quit iPhoto and iMovie (with the camera still attached) then put the camera into VCR playback mode. Then launch iMovie and see if it can see the camera. If not, get out the power adapter for the camera and plug it into the wall, plug the camera into the power adapter. Reboot your Mac and wait for iPhoto to launch again automatically. Don't let it import the clips, just say No, quit the program. Then put the camrea int VCR/Playback mode, launch iMovie and check again to see if it can see the camera. Once iMovie sees it the first time it should be quicker to recognize it in future. But iPhoto does try to race in there and grab everything first.
To turn this off go to iPhoto Menu in iPhoto > Preferences > Look for Connecting camera opens: (click on the pulldown menu and choose No Application) This effectively turns off iPhoto when you first attach the camera. And it opens the way to iMovie recognizing it quicker.

Print to Video HDV

Hello All. So about 6 mos ago I successfully printed video back to my XHA1, since then I haven't been able to connect my XHA1 to FCP at all. I have no problem getting the HV20 to mount. I have tried pretty much every possible set-up and still no luck with the A1. I am trying to print to video and can get neither camera to operate correctly. I have searched the boards and nothing seems to work. LIke I said I have tried so many different configurations w/o success. Does anyone have a tried and true way to print HDV 24F footage back to either a Canon A1 or HV20. Your help would be very appreciated. Thank you.
Jeremy

Well I stumbled on the answer to my problem, maybe someone else might learn from my mistake. When creating my storyline, I created the sequence with DV settings. All the resulting work was then in DV and it apparently will not convert to HDV without significant loss. My solution was to Easy Setup with HD and AIC 1080i60 then create the new sequence. I imported all my clips into the new sequence timeline. When I go to print to file now, the camera automatically starts to record with transcoding to HDV appearing while the video is copying back to the Tape. Just a newbie mistake but maybe someone else wont make the same mistake.

Sequence settings for HDV 720p 24 fps

Okay, now that the French is gone I'm back on track, but still confused. I've captured my HDV 720p @ 24FPS footage using LumiereHD & it's separated & ready to go. What sequence settings/editing timebase should I use? I've noted people here saying DVCPro, but others said DVCPro is just problemic/not correct for HDV . . . and the Lumiere forum reccomends using the Apple Intermediate Codec, which I think people here said NOT to do . . . and there's a 720p24 option in Lumiere, but not in FCP . . . is it just like using 24p DV where you edit at regular 29.97? My head is turing into goo. Any sage advice, O sage ones? And I'm finishing on DVD, if that's usefull. Thank you!!!

Don't stay nervous for ever, you're missing out on a lot of good stuff.
1. Repair Permissions.
2. update to OS X 10.4.8
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
3. update QuickTime to 7.1.3
4. make sure you have Motion 2.1 already installed
5. update all your pro apps with Software Update
http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/whats_new_5.1.2balis.html
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=3213777
Still nervous?
I can't tell you what setting in FCP 5.1 to use, because I no longer have 5.1.
I would convert the HDV to DVC PRO HD 720p.
Editing in native HDV is a pain because of the frame structure.
You will end up with larger files with DVC PRO HD, but since it's all "I-frames" editing and compositing will be much, much faster.

HDV 720p 25 and 24p films

Hi,
I want to make a movie filmed with a DSLR in 24p. In FCE, I can just choose HDV 720p 25... so FCE adds a 13th frame (that is a copy of the 12th frame) for each second when I put a sequence in the timeline.
My movie is a dance movie, so I would prefer to not have that additionnal frame.
Is it possible to prevent FCE from adding a 25th frame in the timeline? Even if the movie is speeded up (if it would be possible, I imagine I would slow down the sequence at 96% - so I find back 24 frames per second).
Or, do you have an other idea? Is there a way to easily delete the 13th frame of each second?
Thanks in advance,
Yann

It would help if you specify the exact make/model DSLR you have.
FCE supports 720p25/30. It does not directly support 24fps anything.
I'd suggest looking at MPEG Streamclip to convert your camcorder videos to 720p25 or 30 (QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec) before importing the video into FCE.

1080i and 720p footage going to 576i DVD?

Hi.
Just getting my head around the best way to attack this.
I have a pile of 1080i and 720p footage which needs to be edited together with the final destination being a 576i DVD.
Now, being a country that uses interlacing and as at least half of my footage is interlaced, it seems a bit of a waste to
convert the 1080i to 720p and then convert it all back to interlaced again with the DVD encoding. So wondering about the merits of an intermediate 720i timeline? So the same settings as the 1080i but 1280x720 dimensions.
Is this a good/bad/stupid idea? Any better way to do this?
Thanks a lot

1.) They will be the same aspect ratio (16:9, square pixels), but each will take up more or less room within the frame than the other.
2.) If you start a 720p sequence, then yes, anything larger than 1280x720 will need to be reduced to fit entirely within the frame.
3.) You can select "Scale to Frame Size" by right clicking on the video clip, or manually resize the video through the source video's Effect Controls box. In addition, with the advent of CS4, Adobe has added a nifty little feature that was absent from earlier editions of Premiere, including CS3, and that is "Maximize Render Quality." This feature is checked from within the sequence settings dialog box, or selected from your export settings, and ensures that any footage that is scaled to fit the native resolution of the sequence will be handled appropriately so that it maintains maximum visual sharpness and resolution.
Keep in mind that there are different flavors of 720p and 1080i, so in future posts it would be helpful to designate which one you are referring to. For example, HD is defined as having a resolution of 1920x1080, and 1280x720 with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and a pixel aspect ratio of 1.0, or 1:1. Panasonic DVCPROHD, through the use of line doubling, is actually 1280x1080 (1.5 pixel aspect ratio), and 960x720 (1.33 pixel aspect ratio), and Sony's HDCAM/XDCAM HD is 1440x1080 (1.33 pixel aspect ratio). Knowing exactly what format you are shooting in and what the native resolution you will be editing in will help maximize your results within the editing software and ensure that your video is not visually distorted. It will also offer you realtime playback direct from the timeline without the need to render, presuming you have a system that is up to spec.

Problems with print range from 1 to 9999 during printing

Hi All,
In my project i am printing the datas in a JTable by a click of the button.I have used the following link:-
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Programming/JDCBook/advprint.html
to print that data from the JTable.The main problem i have is that
1) The font size in which the tableheader and tabledatas printed are so small.So that i need to increase the font size for both tableheader and tabledatas?
2)When i click the printButton for printing it opens a dialog box showing print range from 1 to 9999. And in the pages from 1 to 9999.
I don't want this.I want only 1 to 1.I know that by using Pageable
interface u can change it.But i don't know how to do it
Any one help me to solve this 2 problems i will be very thankful to u.It is Urgent.For ur reference i will provide my Code:-
