Reloading footage doesn't refresh the footage's color profile

Hello.
I have a PSD with lots of layers loaded into AE. The PSD originally had Adobe RGB embedded. After doing animations I converted the PSD to sRGB and added a couple of new layers.
When I load the new layers into AE they have the right profile (sRGB) in them. All the previously loaded layers will stay on Adobe RGB in the "interpret footage" window which causes them to look different (reloading the Footage has no effect on the color profile...)
Am I missing something here? Or is it behaving like this on purpose?
kind regards
tww

Yes, this is a bug.

My Nokia N78 (firm 30.011) doesn't refresh the lib...

I have Nokia N78 30.011 and a have a very annoying bug. I updated the firmware version from 20.149 to 30.011 and since then i cannot upload music to the music library. I copy it to my microSD card and put the option to refresh the music library.... and nothing. I tried to upload the music files via Nokia Music Manager and still nothing. I reinstalled the phone software but i still cannot refresh the library. The songs which are uploaded before the update are in the library but i cannot input nothing more. With my older version of the phone software i don't have such problems. Should i return my phone software to the previous version (and how)?

Hi penio, first of all try to delete these files - You can do this to rebuild the library as it is corrupted.
Restart your device and then refresh your library. If this doesn't help then;
Connect the phone to your PC/laptop and put in 'Data transfer' mode.
To delete the library files:
- Ensure you can see hidden files in Windows Explorer:
Windows Explorer .. Tools .. Folder Options .. View
Select "Show hidden files and folders"
- Connect the phone to your PC using the USB cable in "Data transfer" mode
- Find and rename (or delete if you're really brave) files with names like:
E:\private\101FFC31\mpxv1.mpd
E:\private\101FFC31\pcv5.mpd
E:\private\101ffca9\harvesterdb.dat
(assuming the phone's mass memory / card has been connected as E)
Note that the folder names may be different and the files may have prefixes - eg: mpxv1.mpd could be called abcmpxv1.mpd. Basically, you need to search under the Private folder for any files that look similar.
Now just refresh the Music Player library and the job is done.
This will take longer than normal as it's a complete refresh, but it should now work.
If this doesn't work then format your memory card but copy your IMP stuff.

ReturnToPortal() doesn't refresh the portal page

In the community preference page, when finishing changing the preference, calling IPortletResponse.ReturnToPortal() closed the preference page but didn't refresh the portal page. What needs to be done to refresh the portal page so the portlet can be refreshed with the new pref data?
ALUI 6.1MP1.
TIA!

This is why it doesn't work...
There is a bug that I filed for this, basically that icon on the portlet header works for user and admin preferences... it make sense to add community preferences there too to make it all consistent.
The problem is: community preferences behaved differently.. in 5.x, the only way to edit them was to go through edit this community... the refresh mechanism is built into the community editor.
In g6 that didn't change... you still need to go through that route to actually update the portal with the new preferences. going through the icon does nothing. user and admin prefs will work b/c they also worked like that in 5.x.
Basically, it's a bug b/c community prefs never worked like that... adding it to the button promoted the sense that it should work, which it never did...
so you have to go through the edit this community route to make it refresh.

I have recently received a project from someone who has already captured the footage, can I use the footage directly from the capture scratch for my new project?

Will this in any way effect my footage when working/exporting? I will be working off the same hard drive.

If all the footage played in FC to begin with and all the media is included in the capture scratch folder you should be good to go but I would check a few things.
Pull the new footage into your project and look under the compressor column. If any files are H264 or MP4 I would recommend converting these to a PR422 or another FC friendly format. Also confirm any audio only files are aiff/48Khz(not mp3 or 44.1Khz).
In my experience you can work with H264,MP4, mp3 & 44.1 in FC7 but you are almost guaranteed to have problems later.

Finder doesn't refresh the list of files

Hello!
I have a problem in Finder, it has stopped automatically refreshing the content in folders. Earlier I could move/rename/etc files and folders in other applications and the finder would automatically keep my view up to date.
Now i have to go out and back in to the folder to view the new content.
What's wrong?

first, restart the computer. if that does not help reset your finder preferences. delete the file /users/yourusername/library/preferences/com.apple.finder.plist, then control-option-click on finder in the dock and choose "relaunch". see if that helps.

AddPartialTarget doesn't refresh the region

Hi,
i have a region where a taskflow is consumed. After doing some update through the ui page , the values in main page remains but the values in the region disappears.
when i press F5 the data in region comes in page. However through code when i do addPartialTarget(), then the values still don't come.
Can anyone please suggest in this?

Hi,
Are you using contextual event to update the data?
If so, need to add partial trigger in handeling function.
In any way you can try to add the partial trigger to some of the containers the component you need to refresh.
That what helped for me.

Apple TV 2 doesn't refresh the Photo Library help!

Hey,
I have everything updated, iTunes, iPhoto, AppleTV 2, iOS, MacOS and whatever else needs to be updated, it's all updated.
Yet, when I pick a library and I've deleted the rest keeping only ONE... For some reason, there are phantom photos cropping up that are NOT in the iPhoto Library..
How can I clear the buffer or whatever holds the photos on this device, it's starting to become a problem, I can't show any projects when it shows everything else from other projects mixed up...
Also does anyone offer an alternative to the Apple Remote on the iPhone? I really don't like it it's such a pain to use, it's not very responsive and it's very difficult to hit accurately when you scroll up or down.
Thanks in advance... it's such a pain...

I think you are onto something though...
From what I understand, you have a few options. The way I made mine work, is simply disconnect it from the power for a day. But before I did that I did this:
• Deleted the photo album I had on it, replaced it with a generic one.
• Cleared the device as in reset it
• Then let the generic one run for about a week or so, long enough time to fill the memory with the new contents.
• Then make a new copy of the AppleTV gallery I have in my iPhoto Library. Renamed it NEW AppleTV Gallery
• Let it run with that, then rename it in iPhoto after a few days to AppleTV Gallery...
• Choose that in AppleTV setup.
And that did the trick for me. I somehow think that of all the steps I did, you probably only need 3 of them, but I don't know which so I'm sharing with you all of them.
Just remember, to make sure you order the listing of your images as you want correctly in iPhoto so it won't make a mess when you want to stream it on the TV.
Sad part is, that like so many of Apple's devices, AppleTV and AppleTV 2, could and should be able to do so much more. Like support of MKV (It can if you force it so I hear). But mostly I wish they slapped a cheap 2GB storage or so onto it, so that the images you CHOOSE to hold on it, will be internally played not externally. Sad thing is that this little device is only a weak 25% of its full capacity, it could be so much more amazing.
But that is how Apple rolls the dice... and we just roll with the punches...

Reports doesn`t refresh the database info

Hi, i've been crating reports using the Crystal Reports for eclipse and connecting it to a ORacle database.
All works fine and when i export the project into a WAR file, the jsp files loads the reports fine. But theres a problem, if my database tables changes, the reports continue showing the same data.
How can i set to the report to always read from the database and not to save the original data in the report???
Thanks a lot.

One way would be not to store data with the report by unticking "Save data with report" in the File menu in CR.
Also make sure you're changing the datasource connection properly, as shown in the "jrc_change_database_connection" sample.

Auto shape properties window doesn´t refresh values

hi,
after installing creative suite 4 on my new pc i have a big problem. the auto shape properties window in fireworks doesn´t refresh the values of my shape. if i select the shape i have to close the panel and open it again to get the right values. if i select on shape and then another one, i have to do the same. this is really annoying.
here a little demonstration: http://gate8.de/jeeeee/2013-03-13_1810.swf
i uninstalled fireworks, deleted preferences folder, updated graphic driver and finally called the support but they "coundn´t" help because the product is too old
i hope you can help.
thx a lot!
Jens

Hopefully, you realize you can edit the Auto Shapes directly on the canvas. Hovering over a "yellow diamond" will reveal a tooltip telling what property it adjusts.
It sounds like there's a communication problem between the panel and the canvas/application. The Auto Shape Properties panel is a SWF panel that resides in the application's Configuration/Command Panels folder. Other SWF panels include Align, Path, Symbol Properties, Image Editing, Special Characters, and Color Palette. I wonder if any of these other panels are affected?
It seems like there's been a lot of problems with Flash-based panels conflicting with other apps or plug-ins. Try quitting and restarting the application with no other applications running in the background. Also check out something like this: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3931126

Possibility to assign a color profile in the color management tab for more video formats

Presently, in After Effects CS5, in the color management tab of the "Interpret Footage" dialog box the possibility to assign a color profile to footage is grayed out for many video formats.
Formats that allow to assign a color profile include Quicktime/JPEG2000, Quicktime/Motion JPEG A, Quicktime/Motion JPEG B, Quicktime/MPEG-4, Quicktime/Animation as well as various image sequences, like tiff-sequences. (Motion JPEG A,B and Quicktime/MPEG-4 are not very helpful in this context because they have a small color shift when reimported to After Effects.)
Formats that do not allow to assign a color profile include Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, Quicktime/H264, H264 main concept, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, F4V. (Here, H264 main concept has anyway the disadvantage that it has a color shift when reimported into After Effects.)
In After Effects CS4 it was possible to assign a color profile to Quicktime/H264, Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, but in CS5 this is no longer possible.
Those video formats that do not allow to assign a color profile automatically are interpreted as having the color profile HDTV (Rec. 709) Y'CbCr in case that the videos have 1920x1080 format; similar applies to PAL formats which get SDTV (Rec. 709) Y'CbCr color profile.
(I did not find anything of this automatic assignment to HDTV or SDTV color profile in the "interpretation rules.txt" file, therefore it must be written into the programme itself.)
With growing popularity of wide gamut monitors it becomes necessary to produce footage and other videos that have a color profile different from HDTV or sRGB. When such footage is reimported to After Effects it has the wrong color and the only workarounds are either to use (in After Effects) the effect "Color profile converter" which necessitates extra render time or to use somewhat unpopular formats, like JPEG2000 that has very large filesize.
Presently many footage is produced in Quicktime/PhotoJPEG and therefore it would be very desirable to allow to assign a color profile to such footage in the color management tab of the "Interpret Footage" dialog box.
Does anyone know why in AE CS5 the video formats Quicktime/PhotoJPEG and Quicktime/H264 do not allow to have an arbitrary color profile assigned (although it was possible in CS4), is it a bug, or does it have a deeper reason.
In this context I have a related question, often I read that Quicktime videos have a gamma tag. Does this mean that part of the color profile (the gamma value) is actually embedded/remembered, like you have it for images where the gamma is part the embedded color profile.
I use AE CS5 on Mac Pro 2009 with OS 10.6.7.
Thanks,
Volker

Thank you Rick for this interesting explanations and the links to articles.
In the past few days I performed a few tests in After Effects and it is interesting that you mention that cameras, like the Sony EX3, allow videos to have embedded color profiles. I am not working myself with cameras but either get footage from the internet or sometimes videos from our video department which produces videos with professional SONY cameras, usually I get them in a matrox mxf format.
As far as my test with After Effects show it is not possible to embed color profiles in the videos rendered with After Effects. Independent of the color profile in the working space and independent from the color profile in the output module I always get the same reaction if I reimport videos rendered by After Effects back to After Effects:
In AE CS5 videos made in the formats Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, Quicktime/H264, H264 main concept, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, F4V are always interpreted as color profile SDTV/HDTV (Rec. 709) Y'CbCr (even if I made them in other color profiles, such as Adobe RGB, Photo RGB, sRGB); and there is no possibility to change this interpretation rule.
In contrast videos made in the formats Quicktime/JPEG2000, Quicktime/Motion JPEG A, Quicktime/Motion JPEG B, Quicktime/MPEG-4, Quicktime/Animation are always interpreted as sRGB (even if if I made them in other color profiles, such as Adobe RGB, Photo RGB, HDTV); only this time I can change the interpretation rule. Therefore if I know for example that if I had selected Photo RGB in the Output module I can change after the reimport the interpretation rule from sRGB to Photo RGB and only then I get again the original colors.
The only exceptions are picture sequences, such as tiff-sequences, where the original color profile is automatically selected in the interpretation of the footage.
Therefore, unfortunately for videos produced by After Effects your advice "If it says something like sRGB and you can change it, in most cases you shouldn't change it because the guess is probably right. If there is no color profile assigned then you should assume that is correct." is not so easy to be applied. You have to know how you did it originally in the Output module and hope that you can change it to the proper color profile, in case that the original color profile in the Output module was different from sRGB and HDTV/SDTV. But it is interesting to hear from you that with cameras there seem to be more possibilities.
For this reason it would be nice if in future versions of After Effects one could change the color profile in the the color management tab of the "Interpret Footage" dialog box also for formats such as Quicktime/PhotoJPEG, Quicktime/H264, H264 main concept, DVCPRO HD 1080p30, F4V.
Of course one can always circumvent shortcomings by using tiff-sequences, QT/jpeg2000, or QT/Animation as formats for storing, which is anyway better for lossless or nearly lossless storing, but the files are then too large and also cannot be played easily with a player.

Disappearing color profile when saved for the Web

Hello.
I have a problem with the “Save for the Web” results using Photoshop CS6 running on Win 7 x64.
My photos are already in 8 bits and in sRGB and when I save for the Web I check the option “embed color profile”, uncheck “convert to sRGB”, metadata to “copyright and contact info”.
When I open the resulting photos in Photoshop, everything is fine as it recognizes the embedded color profile. Same thing when I open these files in Firefox, Safari or Chrome: the colors are correct.
Now, when I right-click on a file in the Win Explorer and look its properties, the line about the color profile is blank, as if there wasn't any. This doesn't bother me but the problem appears on my Website created with Joomla and using for the display a module, Responsive Image Gallery, which creates resized copies of the photos. At this point the copies have completely lost their color profile. I entered in contact with the module's support and they assured me that it preserves the embedded profile, so I come here to gather some information about how this “Save for the Web” embeds the color profile because may be I just didn't understand how it does and if it's different from the “Save as” way.
The fact I can't see the profile through the Win Explorer makes me think Joomla's module doesn't either.

Incredible how much gballard's site is famous! Lol. I use it for a while now and checked again right now with the three Web browsers and everything is all right.
As indicated in my first post, when saving for the Web I checked the “embed color profile” option. I already resized the file and converted it in sRGB first in Photoshop.
Yes it's pretty confusing to see some software not able to see the color profile when the file is saved with that option.
To illustrate, here are three screenshots from Windows' file browser => right-ckick on the file => properties => details:
Opening that “saved for the Web” file in PS, it's ok, the CP is recognized.
Opening it directly (from the file browser => “open with”) in Web browsers: ok in Firefox, Safari and Chrome (CP recognized in all).
Copying that file in my working site on localhost (no modification), integer it in Joomla's module gallery (which is CP aware) and then opening my site on localhost with Web browsers: ok in Firefox (because it considers a non-tagged file by default as beeing sRGB), NOT OK in Safari neither in Chrome.
Now, if I do the same with the “Save as” version of the file with embedded sRGB CP:
PS: ok
Opened directly in Web browsers: ok in the three cases
Opened in Web browsers through my Joomla site on localhost: OK IN ALL THREE BROWSERS
Good point gator_soup: I'll post a bug report. I'm new here on the forum and thought Adobe's staff would post here.

Is a "color profile" the same as an "ICC profile"

Hi
The title says it all really. Every device leaves its colour footprint in the CIE based profile connection space. For me this is the device's "color profile". But is this also the same as the ICC profile? Are we talking about the same thing?
Thanks
Jason

There are proprietary "color profiles", but they aren't that common anymore.
ICC Profiles are a standardized color profile, but ICC profiles can also describe color conversions (devicelink and abstract) and not just device profiles or colorspaces.
In most cases now they would be the same.

I have Adobe Premiere 11 and I can't get videos about 30fps (I want 60) and when I do 1080p it zooms in the footage, please help

I record 1080p footage at 60fps but adobe makes it 720p (because 1080p zoom in the footage for some reason) and then 29.97 fps because it doesn't go higher than 30.

mrmsterdavid
Premiere Elements 11 on what computer operating system? For now I will assume Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit.
I do not understand why the following should be happening as well as the description that you give for the "because" parts.
I record 1080p footage at 60fps but adobe makes it 720p (because 1080p zoom in the footage for some reason) and then 29.97 fps because it doesn't go higher than 30.
The project's automatic handling of setting the project preset can be flawed at time. So, let us rule this factor in or out by you setting the project preset manually.
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
Requested Troubleshooting
Part 1.
Open a new project and take Premiere Elements 11 to its Expert workspace.
Then File Menu/Project/New and Change Settings.
You say that your footage is 1080p60. Is that correct? Assuming it is, then
In Change Settings, change the project preset to
NTSC
AVCHD
AVCHD 1080p60
OK out of there.
When you do, you will be facing the New Project dialog. There make sure that you have a check mark next
to "Forced Selected Project Setting on This Project". OK of there.
When you are back in the Expert workspace, use Add Media/Files and Folders/Project Assets to import your
1080p60 file into the project. Drag the file to the Timeline. How does it present in the Edit area monitor?
At the Timeline level, is there no colored line over its content or an orange line over its content?
Part 2.
Right click the thumbnail for the file in Project Assets, and select Properties. What does Properties show for the frame size?
Right click the thumbnail for the file in Project Assets, and select Interpret Footage. In the Frame Rate section of Interpret Footage dialog,
what is given as the file's frame rate. In the Pixel Aspect Ratio section of Interpret Footage dialog, what is given as the file's Pixel
Aspect Ratio?
The above should define the situation.
Looking forward to your details.
Thank you.
