PS Elements 9 multi monitor editing

I just want to make sure I'm not missing something. I just purchased and installed PSE 9 after using PSE 8 for nearly a year, thinking it would have some improvements. Maybe it does, but I do have issues. First, while using the editing screen, I can no longer drag the image to another monitor like I did in PSE 8. So now it's limited in size to the box in the editing screen, rather than the full monitor screen. Another thing I noticed, is that my laptop fan seems to be working much harder, while using PSE 9. Does anyone have a solution to these issues? I may have more as I get into using it. I was wondering if I should uninstall PSE 8, but might end up uninstalling PSE 9.

So now it's limited in size to the box in the editing screen, rather than the full monitor screen
Editor preferences>general and turn on Allow Floating windows, then it should behave like PSE 8, I think.
For the fan usage, go to organizer preferences and make sure that everything under media analysis except for face recognition is turned off

Multi Clip Editing Suddenly Stopped Working

I have a very strange situation and I wonder if anybody else has encountered this. I have a G5 running OS X 10.4.11. It's a 1.8GHz processor with 1.5 GB RAM. I have two 17" monitors connected to it: an older Apple Studio Display and a new Apple Cinema Display. I might add that this computer has been a completely reliable workhorse for me when it comes to Final Cut Pro, After Effects and Photoshop. A recent upgrade to Final Cut Studio 2, however, left me unable to run Motion very effectively if at all. I was also unable to run any of the Noise Industry plugins that I really wanted to use. After seeking advice, I installed a Radeon X800XT graphics card. Visually I didn't notice any striking difference in the images on my screens, BUT I was able to run Motion in real time they way it's supposed to run AND the Noise Industry plugins that I downloaded to demo worked great.
At the same time I installed the graphics card I also decided to move a FC Pro project and all the related media off of an external LaCiie porsche drive (250GB) and onto my second internal drive (150GB). Prior to the move, I had been working on the project—a concert shot with four cameras—using multi clip editing without a single hitch.
All of a sudden, FC wouldn't even launch. Click on the icon — nothing. Neither would Soundtrack. All the other components of the Studio worked fine. So I removed ALL the Final Cut elements — and yes, I got them ALL. Re-installed the software and accompanying media. Same problem. So then I moved the previously mentioned FC project back on to the La Cie drive, did a clean install of the OS on my other internal drive, did all the appropriate upgrades, did a clean install of FC Studio on THAT drive and all the appropriate upgrades. This time FC (and Soundtrack) launch like they're supposed to — but when I go into my multi clip project and double click on the track in the timeline to "send" the 4-camera view to the the viewer, I consistently get the spinning beach ball of death.
I apologize for such a long preamble to my problem, but I wanted to convey as much information as possible. Has anyone ever encountered anything like this before? I know the next step is probably to swap my old graphics card back in, but before I do that I wanted to see if the esteemed forum had any suggestions,
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
John

bummer.
Moving multiclip projects from the desktop may have resulted in some sort of corruption dunno... Media manager might have done a better job of this, but I've never moved a project that had multiclips in it.
Only thing I can suggest is a rebuild of the timeline? Maybe just copy and paste it all to a new sequence and/or to a new project file?

ATI card + OS driver + multi monitor

Hello everyone,
I'm stuck configuring the RadeonHD drivers for multi monitor setup. The system starts with both screens cloned; logging in is in clone mode too. After that the second display is being turned of (no signal). Using xrandr --auto will enable the second display to life and clones the sreen again. xrandr --output DVI-I_1/analog --left-of DVI-I_2/analog will create a big desktop only the second display can only be used for a half screen mouse will go further anything else will not.

Multi-Camera edits not applied

Hi and thanx in advance for your help.
Premiere Pro CS5. Windows 7 Pro 16 GB RAM lots of disk space. Premiere It is patched with all patches except the latest Facebook synch patch. This started a month ago. It may be related to the number of Timelines in a project. On my last project I started having this problem after about 10 Timelines were created in the project (a multi-song music video shoot). In my current project (a 6 hour talking head seminar) I now have about 10 Timelines and it started doing it again so that may be a related issue.
I am doing a four camera shoot. I create a base timeline with all four cameras for each speaker. I then use that speaker's base timeline to create a multi-camera edit timeline that I edit with the Multi-Camera Monitor window editing function. If I stop to make an immediate correction or to take a break, I restart by clicking the timeline window to make it the active window and opening the Multi-camera Monitor editing window and start editing. I'll go 10 or 15 minutes and stop only to find none of the edits are applied, The edits are exactly as they were before I started back up. Once I get about 10 timelines or so I begin to see this behaviour. This behaviour is inconsistent and there is no way to know if the edits will be applied until I stop.
I could try breaking up the project but each individual speaker's timeline is pulled from the primary timeline that contains all the speakers. (I copy the synched multi camera tracks and paste them into a new timeline for each speaker.)
Does ayone know what causes this?
Or how to fix it?
Again Thanx in advance,
mel

Multi-cam edit issues with multiple DSLR clips

Hello,
Working in CC. I have 2 camera angles that were filmed with 2 DSLRs, and mic'd audio that was recorded into a Zoom H4N. Audio recording never stopped, but due to the nature of DSLRs, the 2 cameras would stop recording every 12 +/- minutes. In this end, I have:
Camera 1 - 16 clips
Camera 2 - 17 clips
Zoom H4N - 1 track
When using the multi-cam source sequence option, it understandably thinks each clip is a new camera/angle. However, that's not very helpful for me when I have 17 angles (15 of which are blank) showing up in the program monitor. Any suggestions on how to better tackle this dilemma?
Thank You.

Thanks, Mark. Appreciate the quick response. After messing around, I combined your method with PluralEyes (seemed less tedious that syncing 17 clips manually). There might be a faster/easier way, but this is what I did, in case any one is curious (sounds more tedious than it actual is):
1. Select cam 1 clip 1, cam 2 clip 1 and external audio in the Browser.
2. Left-click, "create Multi-Camera Source Sequence." Two angles and audio are now in a multi-cam sequence. Rename as Multicam_Source_Sequence
3. Create new sequence, called Sequence_01 and open in timeline.
3. Excluding cam 1 clip 1 and cam 2 clip 1, drag all remaining clips of cam 1 to V1, all remaining cam 2 clips to V2, and single external audio to A3 into Sequence_01 timeline.
4. Launch Sequence_01 into PluralEyes 3. Sync and Export.
5. Open PluralEyes' "Sequence_01_synced" (not "Sequence_01_synced Replaced") in timeline.
6. Find a good marker point toward the beginning of the audio where it has synced cam 1 clip 2 and cam 2 clip 2. Cut at that point.
7. Copy all video tracks (exclude audio tracks).
8. Find Multicam_Source_Sequence and open in timeline (un-nested, so that all tracks are revealed).
9. Manually find the same audio marker point where you cut in Sequence_01_synced. Place playhead directly at cut point.
10. Paste video clips. All tracks are now synced in a multi-cam sequence.
From here, it's the usual steps for preparing multi-cam editing, like you mentioned.
11. Create new sequence, called Multicam_Working_Sequence. Open in timeline.
12. Make sure nesting button is turned on in timeline.
13. Drag Multicam_Source_Sequence into Multicam_Working_Sequence.
14. Right-click the nested sequence>Multi-Camera>Enable.
15. Enable Multi-camera view in Program Monitor's panel menu.
Voila! Took me awhile, but this works.And no 17 angles popping up in the program monitor. Let me know if you'd add (or remove) anything. Thanks, again!

Multi Monitor Management Question

I'm running a three 30" Cinema Display config for photo editing but I don't always use all three monitors at the same time. Is there a way, or any third party software out there, that will enable me to turn off the extended desktop when I don't want to use all of my monitors, or am I forced to always plug/unplug the monitors (to force the resync) when I want to use them? System Preferences > Displays isn't much help in this regard. Thanks!

Basically to restate my question. When I decide to turn off my #1 (left) and #3 (right) monitor and just use my #2 (center), the pointer is always disappearing off the screen to the left or the right. Isn't there any multi-monitor control utility out there, or do I always have to crawl down on the floor, unplug my other monitors and restart (a real PIA).
Thanks.

Multi-Monitor PSE 9 Corrupt Display

Multi-Monitor PSE 9 Corrupt Display
Evening all -
First post here at PS Gurus. I hope that you guys can lend your expertise in pinning down an issue that I am having and have also had on other PS versions. I am running
Windows 7 (64 bit) Ultimate
2600k / 8 gb ram / 256 Samsung SSD / 460 GTX 1GB
Matrox Triplehead 2 Go with x3 22" monitors (resolution 5040 x1050)
A fresh install of the trial version of PSE 9 is yielding corrupt main toolbar and options bar (for each tool selected). The application is expanding full screen on all three monitors just fine but the toolbar are corrupt - partly transparent / party compressed to the left. No matter what I have done in terms of resizing the application window the results are the same or get worse.
On another computer I installed PS CS5 (also under win7 64 bit environment) and I was having the same issue. However, at the time I thought the install was bad in some shape or form so I dropped the issue.
I am now considering PSE 9 but see that Win7 + Matrox just isn't working correctly with this combination of hardware / software components.
Has anyone see this issue or know of a potential fix? I have read a couple of threads on the net with similar issues but I don't see any resolution. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks-
Benjamin

My main reason for testing PSE-O 9.0 was to find out if this "bug" was fixed. I can not use PSE-O to organize and show pictures the way I want to with this weaknes in place. Your answer is probably correct, bun not at all helpfull.
So thank you for trying, but my test of PSE O is over for now.
Does anybody out there know of other products that will do the trick?

LCD Monitors & Editing

Just demo'd CS4 and notice a returning issue with LCD Monitor Editing. I have two nice LCDS; one 1920X1200 and one 1680x1050. Standard video has ghosted vertical lines (faint) and then when I play AVCHD from another program, the lines are distinct and horizontal, prominent during movement. I am sure this is related to interlacing somehow. My Sony tube TV has no issue.
1- Am I missing something or can you just not edit with an LCD monitor?
2- Is it my video card?
3- Will an HD LCD TV do the same?
Thanks

1. No, not for grading.
2. No.
3. Yes.

Uix 2.2.8 multi monitor related bug

Hi,
I have a multi monitor system, on the seconnd screen, there is the browser , showing a page which has a Date Picker and a LOV. If I click on one of the icons, the window opens, and then all of a sudden jumps to the first screen with IE, with Mozilla it already opens on the first one. Same screen would be nice though.
Bye Jan

Hello Jan,
In the UIX javascript code the newly opened window's coordinates are checked to make sure it is not partially off the screen. If so, the window's coordinates are adjusted to put it on the screen.
I think there is a bug in IE which doesn't treat the multi-monitors as a single monitor, or something like that. Unfortunately, I doubt we can do anything about this.
Are you saying it works in Mozilla, correct?
Thanks,
Jeanne

Multi monitor cursor swapping

I've got three monitors lined up and I'm looking for a way to instantly center the cursor on a specific display to avoid dragging it everywhere. I know there's a software called Multi Monitor Mouse for Windows which is supposed to handle that pretty well. So do you guys know a corresponding software or script for mac or is it possible to run the win. app in OS X via 3rd party software?
/Erik

Is the question clear or should I rephrase it?
I need a keyommand to move the cursor from one screen to another.

Multi Monitor - different Screeen Saver for different monitor - Setting for notebook computers...

Hi,
I have a question about the multi monitor, screen saver setting for Windows 7. I'd like to know 2 questions.
1.) if I can set different screen saver settings on different monitors
2.) If I can do it, can I work on the external (or non-primay) monitor, when I have the primary monitor with "blank" screen saver?
Basically, I put my notebook computer at the docking station at work, and the docking station is connected to a 22" monitor, desktop keyboard and mouse. So, at work, the 22" monitor and K/B would be my primary use. However, I still "flip"
open the notebook monitor for dual monitor use.
I'd like to "save" the notebook monitor when I don't use it for 30 min. or so... I'd like to "power" it off or set it so that it would only turn on if I move my mouse to that screen.
Is there a way to do it?
Thanks

Hi
There isn't any way to do what you are describing.
The reason is that both monitors have the same source for the video. You can extend the video to the second monitor, but this just gives you more screen space.
The screen saver will only display on the monitor that is set as the default and when the screen saver starts, the other monitor will be blank.
Hope this helps.
Thank You for using Windows 7

Multi-monitor SW is affecting VMware performance on Helix

I have discovered that running multi-monitor software like Matrix desktop management is affecting the VMware Workstation 10 guest performance so drastically that virtual machines become literally unusable. Similar experience is reported by other people using different multi-monitor software like DisplayFusion, see https://communities.vmware.com/message/2315099#2315099
ThinkPad W520, i7-2820 CPU, 32GB RAM, NVidia Quadro 2000M 2GB GPU , mSATA Samsung Evo 840 1TB + 2x Samsung SSD EVO 840 1TB & Lenovo Helix i7 8GB RAM & ThinkPad W540, i7-4800MQ, 32 GB RAM, NVidia Quadro K1100M, OS on M.2 2242 Transcend MTS400 256GB + 2x Samsung SSD EVO 840 1TB

Ray, it will do a lot more good if you file an official bug report at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
Be sure to describe the configuration in extreme detail.

Create one plan element for multi org in OIC R12

Hi There,
Can I create one plan element and use this plan element for 2 orgs, like US and CANADA?
In EBS R115, I have to create more than 100 plan elements in each org.
I want to know in R12 if i still need to do this. If I can create one set plan elements for multi orgs, will save a lot of time. The only difference of org US and CANADA is currency.
Thanks a lot !

It is same in R12 also. You need to do the same as what you did in 11i. Not much changes on plan definition side.

Mouse pointer is unchangeable at 100% scaling in multi monitor setup with different resolutions

Hi there, I have been asked by one of the moderators of the Windows 8.1 forums to post this topic here. You can see the thread relating to this post here
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-tms/cant-change-the-cursor-pointer/ae8ad8a0-3ded-4810-a3be-794f6c4830a4?msgId=2bd7082f-f5d1-4b01-8c70-e0d2a754d66f&page=1<o:p></o:p>
The problem: The mouse pointer becomes unchangeable in size, type, trails etc when 100% scaling is used. As in it reverts to the standard small white non-inverted, no trails,
no shadow 'pointer', no matter what options you select in the 'Mouse' control panel settings.<o:p></o:p>
This appears to be a scaling problem with the Windows 8/8.1 display, not an actual mouse problem. Judging by my own and other peoples experience it seems to happen mainly with multi
monitor setups where different screen resolutions are used. The issue occurs typically when 100% scaling for all monitors is used or this option is un-ticked and the 'change the size of all items' is on smallest (equivalent to 100%). <o:p></o:p>
If the scaling is set to 150% or greater the issue disappears and the mouse pointer becomes fully functional. Also bizarrely when the scaling is set to 100% if the screen is recorded
using a screen capture program, the recording of the screen shows the mouse pointer selected in the mouse options and not the default small white cursor that is present when recording it. Here is a link to a video where I explain and show the problem
happening on my system. http://youtu.be/xs2cxoeaq-A<o:p></o:p>
I have every update installed without exception, latest drivers etc. I use a 55" 4k screen with 2x1080p monitors in portrait on either side. All are connected through 1 Nvidia
GTX 780 6GB graphics card<o:p></o:p>
Hope you can help us<o:p></o:p>
thanks<o:p></o:p>
Jon M<o:p></o:p>

Hi Jon,
I'm looking into this issue but it will take me some time to provide a reply.
In the meantime I noticed that you have 3 monitors with 1x 55' and 2x27' - please have a try to only connect 1x27' monitor and see if issue persists.
Also please try to change the screen resolution to a lower size and see if issue persists.
Both suggestions are not solution, I just would like to know if it is related to multiple monitor or screen resolution.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]
