Scrolling title problem
I need to make a scrolling title longer than the time the program has set it to.
I've already tried changing it by dragging the title out in the time line as well as altering the 'duration time' and manually entering, for example, 3 minutes. But it seems to be stuck on 2 minutes and will not allow me to extend the title to a longer time period.
Any advice???
p.s. the simpler the better... I've only had my mac for 1 month and am finding the switch from a pc quite challenging!
There is only one way I know to make titles (and any other clip created with a generator) longer than 2 minutes: drag the clip into the browser (if not yet there); while in List view write a new length value into the Duration field of the browser, for example 3:00:00 (or simply 30000); use this modified clip in the timeline. Then FCE will use the new value as a clip duration.

How to reduce scrolling title flicker without reducing title resolution???
Hello all,
so after 48 hours and around 200 pages of online forums, i've yet to find any definitive fix on my scrolling title issue- anyone want to give it a try?
so the basic issue it flickering titles (at least for now). Based on my recent education (forums etc), and after using the advice, my basic problem comes down to not being able to reduce flicker without reducing title resolution. This is to say that the many filters do stop the flicker but they also kill the razor sharpness of my titles. I have a little over two min's of scrolling titles (single long vertical column) that flicker beyond tolerance. After realizing that FCP's title generators are limited to a little over a minute, i went to livetype and had little luck there as well. I've tried the many half fixes recommended online (boris, color, scan line, filters etc) all with little to no positive result, and so i come to you a tad tired, upset, and respectfully in request of help.
I just can't accept that a cinematic convention (scrolling titles), one alomst as old as cinema itself continues to be so problematic in the digital realm. Is their no simple or at least straight forward method for creating simple regular font scrolling titles that don't flicker or pulse on their way up the screen. good grief!

Scrolling Titles-. What's up with the quality?
I just created this wedding program, about an hour long. Anyway, I created a scrolling title in Final Cut Pro, and it looked great on the screen. Although, the external monitor showed signs that I was a little jittery.
So I exported the movie and then built a DVD in DVD Studio Pro 4 and burned it. As soon as I watched it on my 50” TV, the titles were jittery, they looked terrible( I know its not a problem with the TV). Any suggestions on how to make smooth looking titles? In FCP?In addition to using Boris 3d Title - Read This Article on Titling in DV
have fun.

"Star Wars" style scrolling title?
I am a new iMovie user (one week) and am getting frustrated already with the limited titles that seem to be provided. I am looking for two kinds of titles:
1) A "Star Wars" style scrolling title to present a paragraph of text that bridges a narrative gap in my movie. I thought I could use the "credits" one, only to find out that iMovie automatically splits the text into two halves as though it were crediting people for roles in a movie. Argh! What I'm looking for is not exactly "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" where it disappears to a vanishing point at the top, but just something where a block of text can scroll smoothly up from the bottom and disappear up the top of the screen (if that makes sense).
2) Also looking for a way to make "subtitles" that appear lower on the screen than the one provided with iMovie.
Thanks!...but just something where a block of text can
scroll smoothly up from the bottom and disappear up
the top of the screen (if that makes sense).
Have you tried "Scrolling Block"?
2) Also looking for a way to make "subtitles" that
appear lower on the screen than the one provided with
iMovie.
Note that iMovie lets you adjust the vertical position of certain titles. As the title plays in the little preview window, move the mouse over the window. If the cursor changes to a cross the title is movable. Click on it to drag up or down.
"Centered Title" is one.
Other titling options are built into your Mac. They include all the text options in TextEdit, which lets you make lots of cool text. You convert the text into an image and import it.
You can also use the Ken Burns Effect in iMovie to zoom/pan across images of text. You can create a block of text of any style or combinations of style, capture it as an image, and import the image using the Ken Burns effect to animate it however you like.
It's possible too, of course, to purchase third-party title plug-ins for iMovie.

IMovie 10.0.2 Scrolling titles alignment
Hi
Am I going mad? I cannot find how to centre align text in the scrolling titles.
I stupidly started a project in new iMovie 10.0.2 OS X Mavericks 10.9.1 & didn't properly check out the new program before I loaded all my movie clips & photos - I really can't face starting it all again - but have to say, this new version of iMovie is a big backward step from previous versions - I hate it!!
I just can't find a way to align the text. I have searched for instructions & it states "click on the align text buttons - but they are not showing. This is VERY frustrating. Can anyone help?
Thanks
LynnIt can be done, but not from within iMovie.
Steps:
1) Create your credits, using the 2 column format iMovie provides
2) Select all your text (command a), and copy it to the clipboard (command-C)
3) Open the word processor of your choice. I used Microsoft Word.
4) Create a blank document
5) Paste the text of your credits
6) use the word processor to align your text (left, right or center)
7) Select all the resulting text (command a)
8) Copy it to the clipboard (Command C)
9) click back to iMovie, and paste the clipboard (command V)
It'll look a little weird when you first paste it. Exit the edit text feature (easiest way is to move the timeline bar away from your credits) and play the movie, and voila your credits are aligned. -
Good Day Gentlemen,
I'm a Premiere Pro user moving to FCP, in Premiere it was Quite easy to add an image or logo to a scrolling title (Movie Credits), but I cant figure out how to add one in Final Cut. I tried in LiveType but I could figure it out either. I really want to know how add the logo to scroll with the title
Eugene
.In LiveType, you would set up your text and logo in the postions, size, color etc that you want.
Then use the track grouping controls and apply a Scroll effect. Because the text and logo elements are grouped, both move together.
In Final Cut Pro, you would need to nest the text and logo clips, then apply a global move to the nest.
Another way is to use Photoshop. Start with one of the video templates that fits the pixel dimensions of your FCP Sequence. Extend the PSD canvas size vertically -doubling or tripling its height to make space for all your elements. Continue to extend downwards as needed.
When everything is in position, turn off the background, merge visible to send your text and logo to one layer, export as TIFF with transparency enabled.
Bring that into FCP and use the Motion parameters to move it up the screen. -

}Mostly I see there is about 100 times as much code as I care to look at.
So you don't know how to get a panel in a scroll pane, and then get that scroll pane into your GUI? Then try doing that by itself, not encumbered with 10000 lines of irrelevant code. Once you have it working, plug it into the big lump of code. Or if you can't get it working, ask about the small problem here. -
Scrolling titles and speed up Movie folder access in Front Row?
I have two questions regarding Front Row and have been unable to find an answer for them yet.
1. A number of my movies/TV shows have very long but similar titles. When I select one, is there a way for the title to scroll and show the whole title much like a long song title scrolls across the screen of my iPod?
2. Accessing my "Movies" folder takes a long time. Is there some way to speed this up, possibly a cache folder that may have its permissions messed up?
Cheers.YES GET THE UPDATES!
i had the same problem and it happened after i updated my itunes to 7.6 (to support video rentals). what you have to do is make sure you have ALL the latest updates - including front row and OS X updates. as soon as i did that - everything was back to working order. you can update by clicking your system preferences and choosing updates. it will automatically inform you of any outdated software you may have.
hope this helps.
cheers. -
Crash noticed when ATV shows scrolling titles
Not a question, just an observation.
I've had several of the problems (ATV-crashes) described in these discussion groups but always the crash seemed to be random - no real obvious cause.
But recently I found that audio tracks (also streaming audio tracks) which have titles long enough to cause scrolling of the title - are in fact a consistent way to cause a crash.
Is there some sort of basic processor (or disk) overloading going on which leads to many of these problems?
Now that I know how to make a crash happen, it is interesting to observe what happens before a crash takes place - the scrolling of titles begins to slow down, any animation (title screen mirror flip for example) becomes jittery, and you can hear the disk beginning to churn away always about a minute before everything shuts down.
Again just an observation.Sorry about not responding - hope this is not too late. When I say crash I mean that the ATV will become unresponsive (no picture, no resp to remote). After that one of two things will happen.. either the apple logo will appear followed by language choice etc. or the unit will just remain unresponsive indefinitely in which case cycling the power will get the apple logo back followed by either a normal startup or the language choice screen.
My ATV is connected to my tv using the hdmi port, and to a receiver using the spdif.
I've also had problems trying to play rented movies - after I download a movie (usually hd rentals) and hit play I'll sometimes get the the first frame of the movie frozen indefinately. I can hit the menu button and it will go back to the menu but I still can't play the movie. I've learned that cycling the power to the ATV will "fix" the issue and the movie will play just fine.

Hi expert,
I am trying to create news with scrolling. In my custom logon page, i called news iview with "Anonymous access". It display the news title using iframe. now i want the news title is scrolling(using marquee). How can i do it. Help needed.
Regards,
ArtHi Art,
The problem is that the JS code provided expects the content within some JS variable. So the task would be to fetch the content on server side and to render the whole thing (JS with the content to be displayed inside) on server side, too, and to pass this stuff to the client. With this, there wouldn't be the standard Navigation component to be placed on your page but your own component, which would do the things described above.
That shouldn't be too hard alltogether, the main question will be if it works to place the very complex HTML(B) stuff into the JS variable and to show up this. Maybe it works, maybe not, in the latter case you may have to reduce the content by accessing the text from the resources, but not to access the whole rendered RenderListItem form...
Hope it helps

XNA - Scrolling background problem
Hi!
I'm making a C# XNA Game in Visual Studio 2010 and I've got a problem. My scrolling background does not appear all the time, only in the beginning. Here is my code in the background class:
class BackgroundGameScreen
public Texture2D texture;
public Rectangle rectangle;
public void Draw(SpriteBatch spriteBatch)
spriteBatch.Draw(texture, rectangle, Color.White);
class Scrolling : BackgroundGameScreen
public Scrolling(Texture2D newTexture, Rectangle newRectangle)
texture = newTexture;
rectangle = newRectangle;
public void Update()
rectangle.Y += 3;
Here is my code in the Game1 class:
class Game1 : Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Game
//Some other stuff
Scrolling scrolling1;
Scrolling scrolling2;
protected override void LoadContent()
//Some other stuff
scrolling1 = new Scrolling(Content.Load<Texture2D> ("AirplaneGameScreen"), new Rectangle(0, 0, 700, 630));
scrolling2 = new Scrolling(Content.Load<Texture2D>("AirplaneGameScreen1"), new Rectangle(0, -630, 700, 630));
protected override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
//Some other stuff
if (scrolling1.rectangle.Y + scrolling1.texture.Height <= 0)
scrolling1.rectangle.Y = scrolling2.rectangle.Y + scrolling2.texture.Height;
if (scrolling2.rectangle.Y + scrolling2.texture.Height <= 0)
scrolling2.rectangle.Y = scrolling1.rectangle.Y + scrolling1.texture.Height;
scrolling1.Update();
scrolling2.Update();
protected override void Draw(SpriteBatch spriteBatch)
//Some other stuff like spriteBatch.Draw(...)
scrolling1.Draw(spriteBatch);
scrolling2.Draw(spriteBatch);
I'm glad for all help I can get! :)

Mighty Mouse scroll ball problems
I wondered if anyone could help me with a scrolling issue with the mighty mouse. Some days scrolling works vertically up and down and other times just one direction. I dont believe it is due to dirt in the mouse - it seems software related and is sporadic in its operation. Any advise you could give would be welcome
Thanks
NickDP, that is what worked best for me in the past.
After months of problems with the scrolling ball, and after trying all the suggestions found on the web, this method of using a white sheet of paper was an excellent one: my MM was again clean and working as if it was new!
However, be careful about it: don't push too much when running the MM upside down. Eventually, yes, the gunk will come out, but the ball would go down-inside the case if pressed too hard for too long. It happened to me when using this method for a second time, and I was in the need to disassemble the device in order to correct this, and I think that's exactly what I was trying to avoid in the first place.
Hope it helps.

Mighty Mouse scroll ball problem
I have had this Mighty Mouse for about a year and a half and the only problem has been the scroll ball. Every once in a while it won't scroll down. I was told to hold it upside down and rub the ball good with a wool cloth. Basically every time it did the trick. Now it won't scroll down anymore (it scrolls everywhere else though). Is there something broken inside? Is there anyway to take it apart? Not being able to scroll down is quite annoying and I'd love to be able to do it again.
Scrolling down, the ball moves but doesn't make the little clicking like sound like it does in any other direction. Any advice?Hi. Sometimes using a clear spirit such as denatured alcohol (or vodka...) instead of the water suggested here
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302417
helps - but I've had one that wouldn't be fixed, and was replaced. Good Luck. -
