Red light ruining my shots...

I filmed a band recently with a few Canon HX A1's. I asked the lighting guy at the show not to program any red into the show, but he ignored my request. Now in post, much to my dismay, all the "red" shots are awful. It looks like interlace combing but vertical. I've tried re-ingesting the footage but its still there. Any suggestions for cleaning this up? Its nearly impossible to cut around.
Thanks in advance.

Vertical blooming. Bummer. The lighting designer owed you nothing without knowing what your technical limitations were.
There is not much you can do because the pixels you want don't exist and they've been replaced by pixels you don't want. FCP has 3-wayCC and it can be used to create interesting matte effects. You will be able to remove all the overexposed red pixels fairly easily and leave all red below a certain threshold. You might layer this over a copy of the clip that has had the red channel removed. There is aa similar process in image editors called overexposure recovery. It's based on the idea that most of the red pixels are blown out but there may still be some blue or green pixels in the same regions. You figure out a way to remove the offending red pixels and replace them with shifted and blurred copies of the blue and green channel information. The technique requires you understand how to key out the bad pixels, process the blue/green pixels, and shift the combined GB data to the red channel.
Since you've posted this in other forums, please go back to them all with a summary of of how you solved your problem even if it was to throw the whole thing away.

  • Red Light in Server.app Website Pane

    Hi, newbie here. Am I doing something wrong in that I get this red light in the below screen shot? Confused.
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/451249/mdmimagehost/murraysorg.png
    Thank you for any insight!

    Hi Matthew,
    quick question - there is your server and its plugged directly into the internet modem ( no intervening router or nat translaltion and your server is doing nat and dhcp for your local network? Is that correct as per the line under ?
    Internet <--> Modem in bridge mode  <-> Server  - with Internet IP Address
    or is it ?
    Internet <--> Modem / Router <--- > Server  - with internal ip address
    Re your questions - The Server name can stay, but the hostname should be something like familyserver.murray.org under network settings. because technically, "murray.org." is a Fully Qualified Domain Name. not Host Name!  Its a convention to give a machine a name under the FQDN.
    Also - No Green Light as opposed to a grey light when you enter your site under websites may mean - its kind of working, but you may get funny results - Try setting up as below and see how that goes, it will likely save problems in the long run.
    Change the hostname in Server.app/Server/Network Settings to be a familyserver.domain.org style.
    Then under DNS on server.app, the Primary Zone should be "murray.org".
    Then add a Machine record to match the hostname - familyserver.murray.org
    Then add a nameserver record in the zone - familyserver.murray.org
    Then add an MX record in the zone for familyserver.murray.org
    Then add an alias record in the zone for www
    Then delete / re-add your website and you should get a green light.
    cheers

  • Audio don't work and lighted red light

    I am having a problem that is leaving worried me. Mine iMac MC309BZ/A, simply stopped to function the sound. I verified and the red light is lighted in the output of audio. The stranger is that, aproximadamente the 7 hours before, I assisted a film and functioned normally, without problems some. The sound icon is grey. Another strange thing is that when I bind, it touches the opening sound. What it makes me to think that the problem is not in the hardware. Already I made reset in the NVRAM and the PRAM.
    From now I am thankful.

    Hello,
    Long shot, but...
    Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back

  • 8900 - Won't Power on. Red Light blinks only! Please help!

    I have a Blackberry 8900 and this thing is driving me crazy!
    To start, I woke up one morning and had a white scrreen and an error 502. I wasn't able to fix the issue immediately since I had class. I'm usually more attentive to my phone but I'm in law school. Anway, the next day I went to try to fix my phone, it would not power on at all. I just got the red light flash. When plugging it in to my computer, I got the sound it was connected but the AppLoader, JML_Cmder and DTM would not recognize the device. Frustrated, I put the phone aside again to concentrate on school.
    So, I've decided to give this another shot but now it's gotten worse. The phone does nothing unless it's plugged up and it's still just that annoying red light blinking. I keep the phone plugged and remove the battery...still that blinking and the pattern is long pause, blink, short pause, blink, blink, blink repeat. Again, there is NO ACTIVITY when the phone is unplugged. Same thing when I plug it into my computer. The battery does not make a difference and doing a battery pull does not work. My computer does not recognize my device at all (no sounds, no connection, etc). I have tried to let it charge from a wall charger and it did nothing but that blink pattern for 12 hours.
    Is there anything else I can do? It's an AT&T phone I purchased and use with T-mobile and both companies are being asses. Any last suggestions before I buckle and just throw the **bleep** thing away.
    Again, I have tried the AppLoader through c:\program files\common files\research in motion\app loader, I have tried using the Command Prompt, I have tried JML_Cmder, I have tried the battery pull, I have re-installed both the DTM and the Blackberry USB and Modem drivers...
    Anything else I could possibly try? Also, does anyone know what that blink pattern means?
    And please don't suggest what I've listed already. Thanks!

    Just to make sure you haven't missed a step, when you tried the Loader.exe file, did you try the steps to fix a nuked BlackBerry? The trick here is to remove the battery on the device, open the Loader.exe file, go to the second screen, then plug your phone in without the battery. As soon as your computer recognizes the phone, click next. This should be able to catch the JVM and allow access to reload the OS. Then once you get to the next screen, you can reinsert the battery.
    If you have already tried that, then see if you can ensure that the battery is charged in another BlackBerry, or see if you can try another battery.
    If none of that works, then let me know as there are still some other things we can come up with.
    If you want to thank someone for their comment, do so by clicking the Thumbs Up icon.

  • Blackberry Does not Function, Plugged into USB red light then 3 yellow lights and off

    Blackberry Does not Function, Plugged into USB red light then 3 yellow lights and off, I cannot even claim the warrently without buying 50$ support? 
    I am an Electrical Engineer by trade and have 15+ years working with computers. I left it to charge over the last 3 days. Doesn't do anything. It's a $300 paper weight. My mother bought this product for me because she thought it was a great present but now it turns out to being worthless.
    What kind of company are you? Honestly?
    How the hell do you think your gonna get customer loyalty with this kind of customer service. It's clearly obvious why apple is destroying you. You are worthless competition. I want this blackberry fixed. I will NOT pay for support just to replace my blackberry. That is crooked business honestly. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
     My mom bought this for my birthday 4 months ago. I open it up and it doesn't even work. How can you do this to your customers. It's no wonder your company is going out of business.
    I demand you fix my issue. I have 1 year of warranty support. I will NOT pay extra just to get my Blackberry exchanged.
    Wait until I inform all my news groups in my area of this. I am from ONTARIO, BRAMPTON. I am a CANADIAN, just like your company. CP24 WILL HEAR ABOUT THIS. I WILL RUIN YOUR REPUTATION. I PROMISE YOU THAT.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    No sarcasm here either.
    One of my PlayBooks recently went 'possum on me, too. Very frustrated, tried all the known tricks and tips to charge and revive it. Over a year old. I called the support line knowing it was out of date and they would deny me.
    Nope, the lady very pleasantly accepted my request, I spoke with customer support and they bugged me via email daily until we got it resolved -- to MY satisfaction. My first interaction with PlayBook support, and it could not have gone more nicely nor further beyond my expectation.
    I don't know what you experienced with PlayBook support, you didn't say why you're so mad with them. This is a user-to-user community support forum. We are not RIM employees, but volunteers who enjoy assisting other users. RIM personnel rarely comment on queries posted here. You would have noticed this in the EULA and message upon registration. 
    Sooo... good luck, and just for the record... the LED activity you described IS very fixable. Sorry you don't have the choice to explore those remedies any longer.

    From your statements above, it sounds like you never tried to burn a CD for at least the first year that you owned the laptop, as it had a one year warranty on it. While you might have used it frequently to install software,  play DVDs, Blu-Ray disks, etc, that's unclear from your statements. Nonetheless, it might just be dirty-dusty. So, before deleting-uninstalling any software, and given they're cheap, try a CD-DVD Cleaner Disk first and see if that resolves your problems.
    Let us know what happens. Good luck.

    Hello NotAppleSavy,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

  • I've got a mac pro problem with the starting up, but also a red light on the logic board solidly on. Its not among the diagnostic led. It's located near the BT adapter and the front fans. Also the fans run loud also. any solutions?

    Hi
    I've got a mac pro late 2006, and i am having problem with it for quite a while now. the problem i am facing is the start up process, and the red light on the logic board. Earlier I've got the two led on the diagnostic leds 5 and 6 turned on without the diagnostic button being pressed, and i think those are related to the processors overtemp. I've managed to solve that by, removing the processors and re applying the thermal compound on the heatsink. what i have left now with is the red light on  the logic board at the time i plugged in the power. At the same time when this light come on, the power indicator at the front panel come on as well. i am not sure what is this light relates to. We've replace the power supply too, and gone through the SMC reset but seems no help.
    Any idea on the problem? I am desperate about it, and i will be greatful if anyone can help..
    thanks and hope for your best solutions

  • Ipod shuffle 4th generation device not shown on itunes, not charging. Seeing red light when connecting to USB charger for a few seconds, then nothing. How to fix this?

    My ipod shuffle 4th generation was working fine for a few months. My son then bit the USB charger. I bought a new USB charger, but the shuffle is not charging and not showing up under the devices in itunes. It also doesn't appear in my windows under my computer. Just to note. I also have a new ipod touch. I am able to charge that fine on the same computer using the USB charger. The device (Ipod touch) does show up in windows and in itunes. The shuffle doesn't show in either place.
    I have tried to use the apple support page. I went through each step. I made all of my USB drives not shut down, I had my computer on all night to try and charge the shuffle. All I see is a red light that appears on the shuffle for a few seconds when I first connect the USB charger to the computer. Then, nothing. Since this was working a bit ago, I don't think that I have a defective shuffle. The USB charger is brand new, I just picked it up yesterday from the apple store. I have the short one, and the longer cable as well.
    Any help that you might be able to give to me would be much appreciated. My daughter is missing listening to her music. Thanks!

    Instead of "charger," you should call it the "USB cable" to avoid confusion.  When started reading your post, I was thinking, how can your son break a USB power adapter (the "charger" that plugs into a wall socket) by biting it...
    Since you got the product with the two USB cables at the Apple Store, you have the right replacement (some third-party replacements are for the 2nd gen shuffle and do not work with the 4th gen shuffle).  Make sure you are completely inserting the plug into the headphones jack.  The fit may be tighter than expected, since the connectors are new.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3572
    If you tried both of those cables, it would be unlikely that you got two faulty cables in one package.  If a new USB device has been added to the computer between the time it worked with the old cable and now, there could be a problem on the USB bus (such as not enough power or a device conflict). 
    As a test, you should shut down (power off) the computer and disconnect all USB devices (including any hub), except for standard keyboard and mouse (if used).  Do this to reset the shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1655
    Start up computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle by itself to a direct USB port on the computer.

  • Help me - iPod Shuffle 4th gen is probably dead - red light for 5 seconds

    Hello,
    sorry for my bad english. I hope you can help me.
    I have iPod Shuffle 4th gen. I have it for one year. When I today tried to charge it, after connected to my PC (in the right USB port) I heard sound of connecting device but in Windows in My Computer nothing happened. On the iPod the diode emitted the red light for 5 seconds and then turned off. I have iTunes and iTunes doesn't recognize the iPod too.
    Does anybody know what is wrong?
    Thanks

    Hey StatistaXS,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like your iPod shuffle may have had a very low charge when connecting to your computer:

    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT1510
    If the iPod does not turn on after charging for an acceptable amount of time, it may need to be serviced. But first, check out the relative steps in this resource:

  • No sound on my Macbook pro, red light.

    My Macbook Pro won't play anything out loud, through the speakers, like when i have to watch a video or hear some music, i have to put my headphones in the Macbook, and then it can play the sound, but if i take them out, there are no sound and there is a red light where the headphones are supposed to be plugged in (The video or music continue playing, i just can't hear it).
    I read something about "International speakers" and it's stuck on a speaker in settings, and to solve it, you just have to play some music with the headphones in the computer, and then take them out of the computer, while the music is playing, and then it should work - but it didn't work.
    I've tried to turn off the macbook for a long time and then start it up, didn't work. I've tried to just normally restart it, didn't work either.
    The problem just came suddenly, I didn't do anything specific before it happened, one day it just didn't work, which is about 3 weeks ago now.
    My Macbook pro is 2 years old in May, and i've updated it with anything that IOS said i should.
    Hope you guys know what i can do.

    Try the following: I
    nsert the earphone jack several times.
    Blow real hard into the audio output port. Use compressed air if you have it.
    Take a cocktail stirrer or a tooth pick and wiggle it inside the port.
    The internal switch is stuck when you see the red light.

  • No sound, red light emitted from headphone jack

    So I really have no idea how to get my sound back. I simply pulled my headphones out of the back of my Mac and I lost sound from the speakers in the computer. When I hit the adjust volume buttons on the keyboard, a circle-with-a-line-through-it symbol shows up underneath, and I hear nothing. When I look at the port where my headphones plug in, a red light is shining out of it. I've already checked sound options in system preferences. Did I break my sound by simply pulling my headphones out?? Help!

    Had same thing happen a couple times and fixed it by just plugging headphones in and unplugging a couple times.
    Don't know for a fact but I think the audio output thinks it has a digital optical device connected (Hence the red light). That would explain why you are getting no sound from speakers.
    Next step would be to call Apple.
