Set number of pictures for exporting a sequence

Hi all, I am trying to export sequences from premier pro, the only trouble I am having is it's exporting too many pictures.
I can delete them to the specific number I need which is 12, but I am hoping there is a way to set the actual number of pictures it exports.
I have put the framerate down to 5  but I am still getting double the amount of PNG's exported that I need.
Is there a way to have premier pro export a specific number of pictures from the sequence?
Thanks.

The only way I know how to do this is to give your project file to Jerry Hofmann... he's been editing so long he can eyeball it and be accurate to within 10 cuts up to 2 hours.
Not trying to be funny -- but I'm not sure how you can do it. Maybe exporting an edl??? Not sure even there if that would be helpful.
Good luck,

    Anyone got any ideas how to get around this terrible downgrade of the software ?
    BTW I have just discovered that iPhoto and its' libraries are still there, so I can go back but be left behind and frozen in time on this version if I do.
    Photos now take up 700Gb whereas it was 350Gb  #@!$#@!@#!@#
    Thanks

    That are all good points - but Photos is a completely new application. and it is only version 1.
    Continue to use iPhoto, girraween; the next update to Photos will probably add a few more features.
    iPhoto 9.6.1 is working very well with MacOS X 10.10.3.
    The migration let iPhoto installed and also your iPhoto Library will still work with iPhoto.
    If you did not uninstall iPhoto, it will still be there in your Applications folder.  And if you had updated to the latest version iPhoto 9.6.1 before you upgraded to MacOS X 10.10.3,  you can simply drag iPhoto back to the Dock from your Applications folder and continue to use it. Double click iPhoto and confirm, that you want to open iPhoto and not Photos.   It is not compulsory to use Photos, while it it still the first release. When you launch iPhoto, you will see a warning, that the iPhoto Library has been migrated to Photos, but simply click the "Open iPhoto" button.The library will still work with iPhoto. ()see: If Photos won't open a library that you already migrated - Apple Support
    If your iPhoto version is not iPhoto 9.6.1, you need to update it.
    See this User Tip:
    Usually it will work to reinstall instead of updating:
    Get iPhoto 9.6.1 if you didn't update before OS... | Apple Support Communities
    The main idea is to move the iPhoto app to the Trash, so Spotlight does not see it as installed, reload the AppStore, and then to try to download again from the App Store - from your Purchases tab, not from the main page, since you can neither buy iPhoto nor update it, but you can reinstall, if your AppleID is associated with it.
    Meanwhile you may want to send a feature request to Apple using the feedback form. Apple - Photos - Feedback
    I hope, Apple will listen and add more features to Photos to make it usable for large Photo Libraries.

  • My iPad 2 only keeps a set number of emails for me to view eventually deleting from the screen. How do stop this as it syncs with my phone and mac book pro neither of which do this?

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • Best options for exporting a sequence and making a DVD

    Hello,
    I have a sequence that is 79 minutes long with the following properties:
    Vid Rate - 29.97 fps
    Frame Size - 1440 x 1080
    Compressor - Apple Int. Codec
    Pixel Aspect - HD (1440x1080)
    This project began with the intention of being a short video, which is my background, and I can usually deal with exporting issues for short videos. However, it is no longer a small project. This was unexpected, and I frequently find myself in over my head. I am at the point where I need to give small theaters copies to view for consideration for a real screening, and would like to ask the folks here some questions:
    How would you export this sequence for viewing on a DVD? Export through QuickTime Movie (not conversion)? Wouldn't that make a file too large to create a DVD with iDVD? DVD is only SD, yes? How is that (watching on a DVD) taken care of, if at a later time I would want a DVD of this sequence to be in the best quality possible?
    This is a lot of questions, and I hope not too vague. Thank you for your time, and thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi
    My notes on this
    FCE/P to iDVD
    Several things
    • How to go from FCE/P to iDVD
    • Free space on Start-up hard disk
    • Encoding
    • Brand and type of DVDs used
    • Burn speed set
    • iDVD BUG
    • Chapters
    How to go from FCE/P to iDVD I do
    • Disable Screen and Energy saver
    • IMPORTANT --> FIRST in FinalCut - Mix Down Audio under Sequence Menu / Render Only / Mix-down
    • Export out as a QuickTime .mov file
    • Select with Mark - Chapter Mark
    • Not as Self-Contained (not important but saves time and space)
    • NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION (IMPORTANT)
    This QT.mov file I import into iDVD from within iDVD.
    Free space on Start-up hard disk
    I set a minimum of 25GB (for Mac OS and iDVDs temp files)
    Encoding
    • I use Pro Quality encoding
    Brand and type of DVDs used
    • I use Verbatim
    • I use DVD-R (plays on more even older DVD-players)
    Burn speed set
    • I set down this to x4 (or x1)
    iDVD BUG
    • One can not go back to movie-project for any alterations and then go back to
    the iDVD project. It will notice and ask You to either Up-date or Cancel. Neither
    of them will work.
    Medicine - Start a brand new iDVD project.
    Use of Chapters
    • I only use a to z and 0 to 9 in naming them. NO other symbol/letter !
    • NO Chapter-mark at very beginning - iDVD NEEDS TO set this by it self
    • No Chapter marks in or within two seconds from a transition
    (Way around this last one - Export movie as QT full quality and NO Chapter marks
    Import this into a new Movie-project and now You are free to set C-Ms where You want
    them except at very beginning - still)
    Material used to build movie
    • video - I use streamingDV (or convert all other to this e.g. .mp4, .avi, .wmv etc)
    • audio - I use .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or from Audio-CD (44.1kHz) - no .mp3 or direct from iTunes
    • photos - I use .jpg - no .bmp etc
    If problems:
    Trash iDVD pref. file and run Repair Permissions - and have a re-try.
    from post ??
    May not be relevant, but I had the same problem with iDVD, where burned DVDs showed a green screen. It was cured by quitting Quicksilver and Quickeys as well as disabling sleep and screen-saving

  • How do I set a background picture for my homepage, not just the edges but the entire screen?

    When I use other web browsers I have the ability to set a background picture on my homepage. How do I do that on Firefox?

    Is this picture to be used in a drop zone or used as the total background of a theme?  If the former it's not possible to do that as that's the nature of the drop zone .
    For a general background for the menu the image should have a 4:3 size ratio in the landscape orientatikon.  For a portrait oriented photo that would mean either cropping to a 4:3 landscape ratio or creating  a 4:3 landscape canvas and putting the portrait image in the center, edgo or wherever and using the composite image.  There will be some white space but that can be filled with a color that goes with the image.
    Of course you will need to use 3rd party image editor that an handle layers or Pages.
    Some Image Editors That Support layers:
    Photoshop Elements 11 for Mac - $79
    Rainbow Painter - $30
    Imagerie - $38
    Acorn - $50
    Pixelmator - $60 
    Seashore - Free
    GIMP for Mac - Free
    Xee 2.1 - free
    You will get something like this:
    One could move the image to the right or left edge for better esthetics and have the buttons in the "white" area.

  • Setting number of threads for each file sender adapter?

    Hi guys,
    I need to ensure file processing order based on a filename, so if I put 3 files named 1,2,3 to the directory, the 1 must be processed 1st etc..  But file adapters work in threads. What I need, is to set up each file adapter to work in just 1 thread. I then takes files one by one based on the name (config setting) and it's what I need.
    Is this possible?
    Thank you,
    Olian

    Hi,
    You need to pickup the files in sequence with the file adapter. But as you have said File adapter works with multiple threads/ instances simultaneously.
    So to overcome this kind of activty you can Either use BPM for processing of file or with the help of Scripting commands at OS level move the files to Source directory as one by one.
    In BPM, you have to include 3 receiver steps one by one so as per the sequence it will pick up the files.
    Thanks

  • Setting the top picture for a photo album

    My conversion to the new iWeb has gone smoothly so far. I'm doing some re-ordering of my site to use the new My Albums pages. The thing is, when I drag one of my old Photo pages under the My Albums page, it always shows the first photo. How do I change this? While I can skim through the contents of the Photo Page like I can skim events in iPhoto, it doesn't set the preview photo like you do in iPhoto. Am I missing something?
    This is probably dirt simple, but I just can't see it right now.
    Doc

    I can't figure out how to do this either. It is not mentioned in the iWeb Help. I've seen a few forum discussions on this and have not seen anyone yet who has figured this out. If this ability is in there, it needs to be made easier to discover. If this feature is not in there, it needs to be. To my thinking, this is core functionality. Apple would seem to agree, because they have included the ability to identify "key" photos for Events in iPhoto '08. And in the new Web Galleries. Even lowly old Homepage can do this...
    The current implementation of just using the first photo on a page does not cut it. If photos are presented on a page in chronological order, (eg, to tell a story), or in alphabetical order, etc., the first picture is not going to be a good representation of the content. And having to rearrange the photos on your page to place the best picture first makes no sense from an organizational standpoint.
    If you agree that this is a problem, please provide feedback to Apple.

  • What setting is the best for exporting Final Cut Express HD

    I am new to final cut express HD. I have worked with iMovie and it was very easy to work with and exporting the movie was not too difficult.
    I am curious as to what setting should I set to to export a movie file from final cut express HD. I've exported a short quicktime movie clip but it doesn't look as sharp. Could someone help me.

    For DVD, export as Quicktime Movie NOT Quicktime Conversion.
    You can drop the resulting QT file into iDVD or into Compressor if you are using DVD Studio Pro.
    If you have chapter markers, make sure to select Chapter Markers in the export submenu.
    Bear in mind that iDVD has a limitation of two hours; even if your movie is exactly two hours you will run into probs cause iDVD counts its menus, themes etc as part of that total running time.

  • How to set up panoramic picture for locked or home screen on iPhone 5 ios 7.1.1?

  • Setting a default folder for exports

    I am sure when I migrated from Snow Leopard to Lion that it asked me to set a default folder to save files and exports.
    I set this to one I don't use and would like to amend it - how can I do this?

    Besides the location for Downloads, there is nothing in the OS itself that will do that.
    There is a third-party program called Default Folder which I think does something like that.

  • How to set video size default for exporting?

    Hi,
    I use quicktime conversion to export video out of FCP. My question is how to set a default video size. Under the options I can change the video size to NTSC 720:480 4:3 (and other choices). How do I set that as the default? Everytime I close out of FCP, the setting revert back to compressor native, which is what I dont want.
    If anyone knows, please email me at [email protected]
    Thanks
    Greg

    You can't. Use Compressor and build a droplet to the exact specification you want, especially if you're going to be doing that format often.

  • What setting should I use for exporting movies?

    Hi
    I've read quite a lot of posts on these forums - I am getting
    the dreaded whitespace instead of the movie I want to see on my
    webpage.
    I created an flv from Premier Pro, put it in Flash CS3 +
    exported a SWF. the SWF plays fine in Flashplayer 9 and when I
    select 'play' in the properties bit in Dreamweaver CS3.
    I used the 'insert movie' option (just using the flv) at
    first in DW but could not get it to work - despite making sure the
    Scripts file was uploaded. So I went with the old fashioned bit of
    script and used a Flash created SWF.
    I uploaded a swf i didn't create to test and that did display
    correctly in IE etc. This makes me wonder if I am doing something
    wrong in Flash. should it be as simple as file>export>export
    movie>OK?
    Grateful of you help. The morning has just disappeared trying
    to figure this one out...

    I still had a copy of Flash MX 2004 installed, so i created a
    swf that i was able to publish successfully from - well - the
    output ran slow. This suggests i am still doing something wrong at
    the publishing stage.

  • Setting number of rings for incoming call

    how does one control the number of rings regarding incoming calls before it goes to voice mail.

    You can do it manually - it's a bit of a fiddle but it works. You need to specify the length of time in *seconds* that you want your phone to ring, before voicemail kicks in. This article describes how to do it step by step - I've followed it and it works perfectly

  • How to handle vertical picture for creating wall paper

    I took many pictures (raw) during a recent festival.   Most of pictures were taken in standard horizontal format but some of them were taken in vertical orientation for a little tall objects.   After processing those pictures with LR5, they were exported in format as shown in the attachment.  They were mainly used for creating wallpaper or screen savers for my computers.   Most of pictures looked just fine  and shown nicely all in the screen but vertical pictures (pictures taken in vertical position) were all out of screen.  Those vertical picture must made different image sizing.  Could someone advise how to set those vertical pictures for export  to show all on computer screen?

    Because of the pictures taken during festivals, I am now spending more time to get nice wall papers for my win 7 and 8 computers.   I now found that it wais not that easy task.  Except for vertical pictures, I just noticed that a little bit of top and bottom parts were cut off in the both screen saver and wallpapers.   The problem is due to aspect ratio of pictures.  I use Nikon D7000 camera to take raw pictures.   In order to get perfect wallpapers and screensaver, I got to make a different aspect ratio after pp-ing in LR5.  That is too much head ache.  I like to keep 2:3 aspect ratio for printing in 4 x 6 papers.  Again aspect ratio must be changed to print on 8.5 x 11 papers..   It is too much hassle changing aspect ratios for so many pictures.. I decided to forget about some parts of top and bottom for wallpapers.  I decided not to take vertical pictures anymore.   I am learning hard way.
