Rolling title that fades away

Hi,
Thanx in advance for your help.
I am making a kids music DVD. It has 6 songs with video of kids (5-7 year olds) making the movements that go along with each song. Rolling up from the bottom are the lyrics of the song. The lyrics come in hard at the bottom of the screen in white and scroll up about 1/3 of the screen before changing to black with a hard end. I use the ramp effect in the titler to do the change to black but what I want is to fade to transparent for a soft exit when the lyrics scroll off. That hard cut off of the scrolling lyrics/title about 1/3 of the way up is not good. Is there a way to soften the text as it ends about 1/3 of the way up the screen? I have CS5 production Suite but am not knowledgable in Affter Effects. I was going to try Affter Effects but thought timing the scrolling lyrics to match the song would be too hard from there.
thanx,
mel

my head hurts...got this far and am still puzzled how to make it work...LOL...
losing half my video with the linear wipe in black video ( made title in psd not titler with ramp)
will think about this and try to solve later...haha...fun exercise though
but its starting to work...
black video = linear wipe
video 4 = copy of video 1 with luma key
about 4 hours later: updated....below is best I've come up with so far..
fades nice, cant get rid of black due to blur for soft fade out...

How do you make a title just fade away

I would like to put a still frame title into a clip, and instead of having it just be on the screen one second and a few seconds later instantly be gone, I would like to make the title slowly disapear into nothingness? Anyone know how to do that?

Yes, I'm very sorry. I keep forgetting that Encore and PPCS4 are separate programs. Yes, you do indeed create fading titles in PPCS4. I finally figured it out today. All that is necessary is to Put the new title on the timeline. Then place the timeline indicator bar, or whatever that thing is called, at the front of the title box on your timeline. Open up the effects control box, and expand the opacity box. Click the little diamond on the right side, and this will add a keyframe to the beginning of your title. Go to the end of the title box and click the diamond again to add a key frame to that end. Then just grab the keyframe on the right and pull it down. The title will disappear over the length of the time that it is on your screen.
Thank you Hunt. Also thank you for the advice about the book. I do appreciate it.

Subject: How do you make a title just fade away
Terry,
I could be wrong, but isn't this something that one would do in PrPro?
Now, if one wanted a Menu (in Encore) to "fade away," they could create (in PrPro) a Button Transition to do that.
Good luck,

How do you create a rolling title that ends on a still image of the title?

How do you create a rolling title that ends on a still image of the title?

Here's the help page that describes using the tab stops:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/PremierePro/4.0/WS35CA53B6-EAFF-499a-A600-DCD85686354Da.html
Let me know if that's clear as mud and I'll try to shed more light on the subject.
One thing that isn't specified/clarified/whatever (and was the biggest stumbling block for me when I first tried this in PPro 1.5) is that the ruler for the tab stops is zeroed at the edge of the text box, and tab stops ONLY work in text boxes (or "text area," however you please). At any rate, you have to position that ruler so that the zero point is at the left edge of your text box, and then the rest of the instructions in the help doc will make sense.
Also, it's useful to show the tab markers while you work. Just go "Title > View > Tab Markers" and you're good.
Hope this helps!
As a side, I have found that this one feature is really the best and most useful part of the PPro titler (and also, just about the only function in the titler that WON'T cause your system to crash on a regular basis).

Rolling title flicker in PE11 DVD playback

Hi. I'm a mostly successful user of PE11 for Mac (graduated unceremoniously from PE10). This question is about flickering despite the flicker filter being fully deployed. It seems this phenomenon is harder to suppress in PE11 than in 10?
Specifically... some JPEG and TIFF stills retain considerable flicker even on high anti-flicker setting. Some of these are 600 dpi+. Should the dimensions of stills be a certain value? If so, what?
A soft flicker along horizontal lines seems hard to suppress in video also. SD from Canon camcorder, 24 fps, transferred as mp4s, and dragged as such into the timeline. The flicker does not appear pre- or post-render but appears on late-model flatscreen TV when played back on DVD. Could this be a DVD burn problem or even a TV problem?
Rolling titles created within PE11 appear to be flicker-filterable, but the flicker seems scarcely reduced on DVD playback (white titles, plain font, reasonable slow speed, abt 40 pitch).
Preset: NTSC, 16:9 (can provide more if needed)
I saw a similar post by a PC user from 2012 but the thread apparently died before it was resolved.
Thanks a ton in advance!!

Ric
I am strictly an Elements Windows user, so I would ask some of the following questions from that perspective as I view your Premiere Elements Mac situation.
a. Does your Premiere Elements have an Anti-Flicker slider (0 to 1.0) in
version 10: Properties Palette/Motion Panel expanded
version 11: Applied Effects/Motion Panel expanded
If so, have you used it for what you are calling flicker?
b. Are your photos all from cameras? Are any freeze frames from video? If the latter, De-interlace may be in order.
c. I have not run into rolling titles that filter so please describe how you are creating these rolling titles...Add Image, duration of title, font style, font size. How are you telling the different between the rolling title flickering versus what is below it in the tracks flickering? Or is there nothing below it?
d. Something to look into
The flicker does not appear pre- or post-render but appears on late-model flatscreen TV when played back on DVD. Could this be a DVD burn problem or even a TV problem?
If you play back a store purchased movie in DVD-VIDEO format on this TV, do you see this flicker?
Just some thoughts for now.

Stop and fade out a rolling title

How can you stop and fade out a rolling title, if at all?
Thank you.
Pal

Here's an alternative approach - it's great to have alternatives! I believe that to "stop and fade out a rolling title" is what the Roll/Crawl Options box is all about. Here's what I do:
Create a Default Roll Title.
In Roll/Crawl Options click on Start Off Screen (Preroll will disable) and enter the following values: Ease-In: 0, Ease-Out: 50 and Postroll: 100
Leave End Off Screen unticked
Make a few space lines before and after whatever it is you want to have stay on the screen at the end so that it fits in the middle. In my case that's usually ME! :-)
Your titles (as long as you like) will start off screen and then they will roll and roll until that last block appears and slows down - the Ease-Out value. That will stay on the screen for the Postroll value duration. Usually I have a normal disolve transition to do the fadeout. All done in just a few mouse clicks.
(The above values are what I use 99% of the time but you might wish to experiment.)

My MacBook Pro gets really hot when I open a video file of any kind and the video starts lagging and the image fades away, also with anything that starts the fan. Is extremely hot on the left upper corner. Is there something I can do about it?

HELP!!! Screen Fades away when open or close the s...

Dear All,
I am Orlando, owner of a Nokia c6-00 phone. Recently I updated my phone to v 41.
and after that a strange issue has occoured. My phone screen fades away when i open or close this sider. I tried googling up this issue. But I guess I am the first one having this issue. I have already tried RESET FACTORY SETTINGS, and reinstalling the upgrade. But of no use.
I have no idea whether it is an hardware issue or a software one.
So, Guys please help me with this issue.
Thanx..!!!

@awesome93
Probably no alternative but to backup essential data then "hard reset" by keying in *#7370# followed by 12345 (default Nokia lock code unless altered by user) to exclude any software corruption; although it seems a strange co-incidence there maybe issues with screen flex cable or it's connectors.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

Games are not turning on . I click on a he icon but screen slightly fades away and comes back to same spot.

Continuation, when screen fades away it feels as if it wants to start a game but then it just goes back to the original screen . I thought that was a wifi issue but now I am connected to wifi and it still does the same thing.

Is it every game or just some of them? It's entirely possible that hte game isn't compliant with iOS5. And if that's the case it's up to the developer to update their software for the new OS.

Ipad mini screen fades away each time i power it on

My ipad mini first gen keeps turning off but not like a normal unexpected power off instead the screen fades away and to get to turn back on i have to hold powet button and home. i tried a software restore but no luck, i think its a battery problem.

I'm not a hardware expert and I don't think anyone here is either. However, if it was the battery, I think that you would see other signs of battery problems such as inconsistent charging, the device not holding a charge, and things like that. Maybe it's a short, but I would have no way of knowing that either. Why don't you contact iPad repair support and explain it to them.
https://www.apple.com/support/ipad/repair/
If this was my iPad, I would make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them to take a look at the iPad. It is much easier to book a Genius Bar appointment if you use the Apple Store app.

Hello there, RFJA2211.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great troubleshooting steps for unexpected power off of your iOS device:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Lenovo B575 screen just fades away

New here so here goes.....I own a Lenovo B575, great piece of equipment...BUT on occasion the following happens.
1. I am done doing what I wanted so I go to START/LOG OFF.
2. Now I want to resume some time later so I click on my personal ICON and the unit comes alive and goes to my screen saver - BUT the image starts to fade away to complete DARK.
3. Only way to get back to my screen saver with all my ICONS is to power off the unit and power back on.
Do I have a problem?????

hi xbassman,
Welcome to the Community.
If you see a dark screen but the LCD backlights are still ON then it's possible that the explorer.exe has crashed.
Can yu try to:
1. Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open up the Task Manager
2. On the Task Manager, go to File > New Task (Run...) > type explorer and press Exter (this should restart explorer.exe and give you the desktop)
3. Update your video card driver from the Lenovo website and install all Windows Update then observe.
Let me know your findings

Encore encoding rolling titles incorrectly.

I've got an approximately 1 hour video - a dance recital. I've got rolling titles at the end stretched out to 3% speed, to cover an entire song. The titles are off to the right side and on the left there is a montage of clips in a resized frame.
Snap below. And video inserted.
The video in this montage has no filters, just third party transitions.
It's done this for MP4 and DVD encoding.... but only on a two pass. One pass encodes fine.
Here are the encoding specs:
Mpeg2-DVD : NTSC match attributes
2 pass VB, use previews.
The MPeg4 was the Vimeo HD preset with a 2 pass and use previews.
I didn't change any other settings.
When I encode with one pass the titles are correct. If I go to two pass, you see what happens, both in this still and in the video clip.
Anyone understand why this is happening?
Is it usually a big compromise in quality to only have one pass?
Thanks for all your help.
Jessica

ok....to make matters worse......the video that's on Vimeo...actually plays correctly. Huh?????
You can see that the thumbnail has the double titles...but, when you play it, it's ok. It's not ok if I play it with VLS or Media player on my machine. What the heck could be happening????
I'm not producing a one pass, but I'm going to put the test clip in Encore and see how it produces/plays through that..

Boris Crawl/ Roll Titles not smooth - Help anyone?

Does any of you FCP pros out there know how to get the roll or crawl titles to come out smooth?
I'm using the Boris Crawl in FCP 5.04 and I checked the deflicker option (not sure if that made matters better or worse... ?). The roll titles look fine on the computer monitor, but they look bad in the DVD version on my TV monitor. (at the moment I don't have a camera or another way of connecting the monitor directly to the computer). The crawl titles look bad in both places... a bit shaky and flickering, making it hard to read them.
Is there a better way? or is this the best FCP can put out?

Hi dndn,
I've been generally unhappy with credit scrolls in FCP over the years, so what I do when I have to create credit scrolls is make a 640x3000 JPG file in Photoshop and type my credits in there. Then I just use the motion controls in FCP to make it appear as if this image scrolls from -3000 through +3000. I never get any sort of pixelation or flicker, and I could swear it scrolls a little smoother than the scroll generator in Boris, LiveType or FCP. If you want to contact me I'll be glad to send you a template that you can look at. My e-mail is [email protected]

PRE7 - Program crashes as soon as rolling title is selected

XP-Pro/2GB RAM/Quad Q6600/SATAII disks
After fiddling around with various settings, I have now got the program to edit AVCHD reasonably reliably, and have edited a 8 minute film with AVCHD 1920 x 1080 footage plus a few 10MPx JPEG stills.
I created rolling end-titles which work OK. I now want to make some changes to the titles. As soon as I select the rolling title the program crashes and exits. I have tried creating a new title rather than editing the existing, and even starting a new project with only the title. The result is always the same.
Any ideas?

1. I attach a screen print of the Processes in a Word document. Is that the way to do it?
I do not know about the .DOC, but I know that a TXT file would work fine. Because of Word Macros, .DOC's might be blocked. Do not see an attachment yet.
2.Project and Scratch files are all folders together on the data, not the system disk. PRE7 is installed on the System disk.
This is good.
3.I'll need reminding how to find Virtual Memory and Page File info.
Control Panel>System>Advanced>Performance/Settings>Advanced>Virtual Memory/Change (do not change it, just read what it says). The exact path might differ by OS version. Syntax may change, but will be similar.
4. Some history on the USB oddity. Before I installed PRE7, I had a problem after updating my drivers. The latest VIA chip drivers for USB loaded fine (apparently) but thereafter all the USB 2.0 ports were turned in fact to USB 1.0
Many have reported all sorts of problems with the VIA chipset. This is an odd one, but not totally surprising, based on so many other issues.
The only oddity thereafter is the one I have described. The disk identification numbers are displayed in Device Manager/Disk Drives e.g "Hitachi HDP725050GLA360" but nothing else. If however I plug a USB card reader in, this appears not only as a Mass Storage Device under USB Controllers but also as four "GENERIC STORAGE Device USB Device" under Disk Drives alongside the real disks. It works fine.
The reason that your card reader shows up as multiple drives, is that its a multi-reader and has basically an identity for each type of card that it can read. One of mine shows up as 8 drives, and my HP All-in-one printer shows up as a drive, because it has a card reader.
On booting, the two SATA II disks are correctly identified as such in the BIOS. They run from the onboard chip as does the IDE Disk. The IDE Disk came from another computer but all the Disks were installed at the same time when I built the computer.
This is good and rules out a BIOS issue with regard to the HDD's.
The only other possibility is that I downloaded my PRE7 as a trial version. However I didn't "buy" this installation but bought the boxed set and installed that. My recollection is that I uninstalled the original version, but there seem to be other installation folders that don't belong to the "proper" installation. Is PRE7 getting confused somewhere?
Now, this might make a difference. I have far less experience with PE, and also have never done a trial of any Adobe software, but...
In PrPro CS2 - CS3 and CS4, the trial could not just be removed. Once it was uninstalled, the appropriate Adobe CleanScript had to be run (sometimes 3 - 4 times), before the full-paid version could be installed. There were many issues, if one did not do this. The Adobe CleanScripts were available by version number, i.e. CS3 to clean up after the CS3 trial, before installing the CS3 full version. This was very important, and had to be done. Where I am in the dark is I have never heard of an Adobe CleanScript for PE - any version. I also could not find one on the Adobe site. Maybe someone can help me out here.
Given the problems that you are experiencing. I would back up all of your Projects, including the Scratch Disks for those Projects. Unless you've been moving your Assets into the Project folder structure, they should be good to stay where they are.
Next, I'd uninstall PE (did you have PSE trial too?), and then manually remove any "other" Adobe PE folders (be careful if you have other Adobe programs, and limit yourself to JUST the Adobe PE folders.
Run a Registery Cleaner, like CCleaner several times. You want the Registry Cleaner part of that program, as it does other cleanup duties. Right now, it's just cleaning the Registry. Once 100% clean, reinstall PE, and test.
Good luck,
Hunt

No second page in rolling title - need help with long title

I am creating my first rolling title in Premiere Pro v1.0.
I have read/watched the tutorials on creating a rolling title and have successfully created my own.
My problem is that I have several pages of prepared text that I want to have roll over the screen and I only can get the first page.
I have the text in Notepad, I copy it to the Clipboard using Control-A, Control-C.
I come into the Title Designer, select the Type Tool, and press Control-V. The first page of the text is inserted into the Area Type box.
I then save the work and preview the results, but I am only getting the roll of the text for the first page.
Can someone please point out to me what I am doing wrong or direct me to some documentation/tutorial that shows how to insert a long amount of text into the Title Designer and have it roll?
Thanks

I currently do not have Photoshop available to me and I was really hoping for a simpler method to do this.
That is why I mentioned method #2. It relies totally on Titler. Other than doing X number of Titles, and then adjusting their timings and spacings with Motion>Position Keyframes, it takes all of about 5 mins. to do. You can first break your one very long Title into logical segments, and then still use Ctrl+c/Ctrl+v to make each Title. Note that you can get more text into a Title, than what you see in Titler. It does not have a "scrolling" feature, but using Ctrl+c/Ctrl+v, you really do not need to see everything, so long as you edited it in Word/whatever. I'm not sure of what the limit to what can actually fit onto one Title, before it truncates, but seem to recall about 32 lines working with 48 pt. san-serif type for me. Could be off a line, or two.
If you need more detail on the multiple-Title method, let me know. It is far simpler to do, than to type about. Also, if you are not yet comfortable with Motion>Position Keyfreame work, now is the perfect time to learn it, as you WILL embrace it. I do not think I have used either the Roll, or Crawl Preset in four years - so very little control. That's why I said you'd go crazy trying to use those for this task. If I had to do it with the Presets, I'd charge the client 3x, just for the aggravation of having to do so.
Good luck,
Hunt
If you have any questions on where to break your long credits, don't hesitate to send me the Word, txt, whatever file, and I'll look at it and make recs. for you. E-mail is listed in my profile.
