Slideshow, change duration of some images?

Hi
I'm using this script. (I foud it here somwhere) to run a slideshow in a div.
What I wonder if its possible to change the tempo on some mages?
Say I have 5 images and want the last two to run faster.
I have tried som if and else and renaming some of the "quote" divs. But I cant get it to work.
I would appreciate some help.
var quotes;
function fadeInNextQuote()
if (!quotes || quotes.length < 1)
return;
var curEle;
if (typeof quotes.curIndex == "undefined")
quotes.curIndex = quotes.length - 1;
else
curEle = quotes[quotes.curIndex];
quotes.curIndex = (quotes.curIndex+1)%quotes.length;
var nextEle = quotes[quotes.curIndex];
if (curEle)
Spry.Effect.DoFade(curEle, { from: 100, to: 0 });
Spry.Effect.DoFade(nextEle, { to: 100, finish: function(){ setTimeout(function(){ fadeInNextQuote(); }, fadeInNextQuote.interval); } });
fadeInNextQuote.interval = 6000;
Spry.Utils.addLoadListener(function()
// Find the quoteBox and setup any quotes inside it for fading.
Spry.$$(".quoteBox").setStyle("position: relative; height: 315px;");
quotes = Spry.$$(".quote").setStyle("position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; opacity: 0; filter: alpha(opacity=0);");
fadeInNextQuote();

1.5 Seconds would equal 1 second and 15 frames or 75 frames
Try setting it to 1 second 15 frames.
Also try:
Final Cut Pro Menu > Preferences > Window pops up. Select the EDITING Tab > You can set your STILL IMAGE DURATION. You can set it to 1.5 in this window.
Then, by default all the clips you select in the Browser will be selected in that range. However, it will not affect your still clips already in your Timeline Project.

Change duration of multiple images

Hi there,
I'm trying to change the duration of all the images I have in my movie to 1.5 seconds. However, I can change the seconds but the miliseconds seems to be stuck on Fr which only goes up to .22 then jumps to 2 seconds.
Is there a way to change this to 1.5 seconds rather than 1 Sec 22 Fr or 2 Sec 0 Fr?
Thanks,
Nick

How to change duration of selected still image Clips?

iMove is great in all its simplicity. However coming from the Windows (Pinnacle Studio) side I have yet a few mysteries to solve: Changing duration of a single still image clip is trivial, but it seems impossible to do the same operation selecting two or more clips. Did I miss anything? You can specify the duration and apply to all clips, but I have found no way to apply e.g. 4 sec duration to half of the 220 slides in my slideshow. Cmd+R on 100 still images seems like a fairly unintelligent approach. Hints, anyone?

Hi
Anybody?
I'm having the same problem.
I have 500 stills in my timeline (iMovie 06 HD) and there seems to be no way to change the duration of more than one still at a time.
This cannot be right. Please tell me what I am missing!
According to another thread about this issue, the answer was that after I select my group of stills in the timeline, I should be able to open "Media" and "Photos" in iMovie, and then set the stills duration settings that way.
But the button "Show Photo Settings" is greyed out, so I am unable to set the group stills duration.
Any help?
PLEASE?

The latest issue of Pages for iPad: 1. Very slow. 2. Late in reacting to typing. 3. When I go to a specific file, informs me that some images were deleted and therefore file has been changed. Then when OPEN option used, opens file slowly. Please, help!

What I have to do to correct the following problems with Pages app. For iPad:
Hesitates to display results of typing, some times for 5-6 characters;
Very slow in opening files;
Before opening of a specific file displays message: DOCUMENT DETAILS. SOME CHANGES WERE MADE TO YOUR DOCUMENT. SOME IMAGES ARE MISSING BECAUSE THEY WERE DELETED FROM YOUR DOCUMENT. We'll, nothing is missing. But it takes forever to open this file. The previous issue of Pages worked very good. But they would not let me to go back to it. Please, help!

Tmobile did the exact same thing to me. So that is customer service at work in general. Nice try though lol.
To the OP
I see you said You paid for shipping, did you Insure it? Claim insurance on it. If you did not, It may not be Verizon or your fault in the sense of the phone not making it to the warehouse. There are people out in the postal world that will steal phones that are not insured. It could have been a Verizon employee, i suppose.
But, if this was to be a bought in court, if you shipped it with out insurance, sadly your at fault.
Do you still have the Serial number of your old phone? If so, you should be able to track where your phone is (if it is reported as a defect/damaged) If so, you may be able to use that as proof. If it does not show up as a defect or what ever they determine use as a loss, then you know it did not make it to the warehouse to be checked in. I would suspect Apple or Verizon could tell you what the Serial number came up as.

What is the problem specifiaclly?
If the images are intended for web use I would recommend converting them to sRGB which could be done with Edit > Convert to Profile or with File > Save for Web, but as including a Save step in Actions and applying them as Batch can sometimes cause problems I would go with regular converting.
You could also try Image Processor Pro.

Change duration of multiple still images in one operation

Hello Folks.
I am trying to change the duration of each image in a sequence of still images.
Program: Adobe Premiere Elements 7
Mode: Standard Definition 4/3 ratio
File types in use: MOD, AVI, PNG
Problem: The product manual states: "To apply the new default length to all still images in your project, delete them from Project view and reimport them into your project."
Question: Is there a way to select a group of still images and then apply a new duration value to all of them in one operation? An Adobe salesperson told me that this is possble before I purchased the program, but I cannot figure out how this is done. I switched to Adobe from another product in order to get this feature. Now that I need it, I cannot figure a way to get it to work. Time Stretch is not available when I select multiple images.
Thank you,
Brian

Brian,
Unfortunately not. PrPro CS4.2 has just added a way to change the Duration of previously Imported stills, but so far PrE does not allow for this, unless it is new to PrE 8, but I have not read of this.
As noted, the method is to set the Edit>Preferences>General>Default Stills, and choose the Duration in Frames. Then Import the stills. If they are in the Project, that setting has already been applied, so one must delete them from the Project Panel and re-Import them with the new Duration.
Now, one can obviously change the Duration on a one-by-one basis in the Timeline, but that can be tedious, if there are many stills. If I were doing this, I would make sure to have the Info Panel open and nearby, Window>Info.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - if PrE 8 HAS added the post-Import Duration change, I hope someone steps up with that info.

I want to import still images to make a stop motion animation, but when I try to change the duration of still images, it isn't reflected in the timeline. How can I do this?

Tonaw,
If you import your still images using iPhoto, then the time you set for each still, using FCPX Perferences works.
You can set the durantion from 1 frame to as long as you want them view.
If you do not use iPhoto to import your stills, the default is 10 sec's.
FYI: This issue was brought up within a month after FCPX was released. They found out by using iPhoto, you had better control of the amount of time your still was viewed.

Howto change duration of images (change the duration of group of images )?

Hi all,
I'm using iMovie HD 6.0.3 and I wish to change the duration on the time line of all my photos. I can do it one by one but there are 100 of them.
Question: how can I select all pictures and change the duration of ALL images (the default 5 sec and I wish to make it 3 sec?)
* when I right click the photo --> show info -->the duration *is not* editable?!?!
any idea how to circumvent this?
Thank you!

Select the first photo in the sequence. Then while holding the shift key, select the last one. This should cause all of the photos from the first through the last to be selected. Then, be sure to click on "Media" and then "Photos". This should then show a button that says "Show Photo Settings"; click on that. In the window, go to the box at the bottom, and change the duration to one that you wish. This new time should be applied to all of the selected photos.
I hope this helps.

Editing some descriptions and changing some images within podcast section.

Hi,
Editing some descriptions and changing some images within our podcast section.
I don't have the information needed to log into our feed-burner site, and was wondering if maybe there was another way I could edit the podcast section?

If Feedburner is taking its information from another feed you can update that feed, unless you have enabled 'Smartcast' in Feedberner which over-rides the original. In that event you can only amend it in Feedburner (either way you can't do it in iTunes).
You will need to take steps to discover your login; I don't know whether Feedburner Support are likely to be able to help you.

Trying to import photos and copy as DNG. Nothing will upload though. Permissions are all accurate, saving to the right profile, etc. Nothing has changed on my computer but it will not let me import new pictures. Also, updated the software and some images

trying to import photos and copy as DNG. Nothing will upload though. Permissions are all accurate, saving to the right profile, etc. Nothing has changed on my computer but it will not let me import new pictures. Also, updated the software and some images say "preview cannot be seen" and some don't. And when I try to import and I hit "new photos" it's all the photos on my card. My brain is about to explode.

It said something similar where the thumbnails were supposed to be.
Just got the newest edition of LR, 4.4
4.4 is not the newest edition of LR
We don't want to know that it said "something similar", we want to know the exact wording. In fact, you ought to state the exact problem you are having, in detail, instead of saying you are having the same problem.

Creating a slideshow: need to fit still images in video track to audio

Hello,
I am creating a simple slideshow in FCP. I have 99 still images, all sequential, with a transition in my video track. I have two audio songs in sequence in my audio track. The obvious problem is that my audio is much shorter than my 99 images.
Of course, the next task is fitting the video to the audio. But with 99 still images, I do not want to edit each individually. I need to be able to select all images, and fit them all to the audio, so that the duration of each still image is shortened equally, i.e. a symmetrical compression of the duration of each.
I haven't figured out quite how to do this. I thought the ripple tool would work, but I haven't been able to make it work on all image clips. Can someone help me out and let me know how this is done? I suspect it's quite easy, I just can't seem to find any documentation on this either in the FCP user's guide or via Google.
Thanks in advance.
Brad

I should have also mentioned, that I get the FCP
"beep" or "bonk" whatever the sound is, when I try to
change the duration and it won't change. I can't
figure it.
Brad,
Okay, this has happended to me before. It's user error, but right now for the life of me I can't remember what was wrong and what I did to fix it.
Try this...highlight only one clip and try just one clip. Will that clip change duration?
If it does it may be a problem in highlighting "all" of the clips. Give me a minute or two and I might remember what I did to fix the problem when I had it. Most likely when it happened to me I ...1. played with it...2. cussed....3. played with it some more....4. cusses....5. got a diet coke and forgot about it for awhile...6. somehow fixed it.
You can always try the original suggestion. There's always more than one way to skin a cat. Sometimes, I go the long way just to get there. The short cut doesn't do you any good if the road is closed so to speak.

Any way to shorten slideshow picture duration?

I'm making a simple slideshow in iMovie of some still photos, no Ken Burns effect. I've shortened the transition time to almost nothing but don't see any way to shorten the amount of time that the photos themselves appear. It just takes too long imo. Is there any way to do this?

Note that once you change a photo's duration (in the right-hand editing window), all new pictures that you import will have the same duration. It creates a new default value (same thing with the KBurns checkbox - it remembers, for better or for worse).

Duration of still images between 0,1s and 1s... How to?

Hello,
After looking and reading at many threads... I figured out that I needed to ask for some help...
Here's my problem, I'm making a stop motion video on iMovie 10, and I can't find the way to change the duration of still images between 0,1s and 1s... no matter what duration I enter, iMovie always change it back to whether 0,1s or 1s...
I know that there's a solution as I did it before on the same version of iMovie (wish I wrote down how I did that!)
I can do it with the precision editor, but only picture by picture... I have 200 of them, so it's way too long!
I know there's a solution!! Just can't remember it / find it...
Hope someone will be able to help me!!
Cheers!
Nico
PS: I can't use the "." in iMovie to change the duration, I have to use the "," (french standards I guess...)

I just did some testing on this, and it seems like the Still/Freeze Duration, Preview Pre and Post-Roll changes depending on what audio/video settings you have chosen. Try selecting DV NTSC in Easy Setup. Then check your User Preferences -> Editing.
DV NTSC:
Still/Freeze Duration: 00:00:10:00
Preview Pre-Roll: 00:00:05:00
Preview Post-Roll: 00:00:02:00
Try switching to DV PAL in Easy Setup, and check your User Preferences -> Editing again.
DV PAL:
Still/Freeze Duration: 00:00:12:00
Preview Pre-Roll: 00:00:06:00
Preview Post-Roll: 00:00:02:10
When importing still images using the DV PAL Easy Setup, the stills get a duration of 10 seconds, even though the User Preferences -> Editing are set to 00:00:12:00.
Can somebody please explain why it is like this? I hope there is a logical explanation

Changing duration after applying motion properties?

I have a series of still images that I applied scaling and motion to and I now want to change their duration so I right-click, choose Speed/Duration and change the timecode for the duration to make the still image take less time on screen. After doing this the scaling and motion no longer work. Is there a way to change still image duration after applying scaling and motion to them?
Thanks.

Looking for some answers (Oh I realise this thread is 1 year old!) about clips duration I bumped into this one. I wonder if part of the above problem had something to do with pictures coming from different cameras - I seemed to notice that with the same preference choice some clips seem to interpret the duration differently? Probably when the aspect ratio is different from one camera to another, or if one has changed his or her aspect ratio on that camera in a shooting session.
I do remember that to change the duration default via preference it has to be done before importing photos in the project windows or has someone pointed out, re import them after changing the default.,
I also thought after changing the duration of clips that had key frame for various functions, the new duration may have excluded those key frames because the shortening had truncated the part where the end key frames were, thus making them void.
(I'm a little surprised to be in this thread as I had written in the "question" field "still images duration" and was in another thread with 5 entries, the last one from Anne Benz with a shot of a time line, also from Oct 2012! But some how when I tried to add to it, I could not and found for unknown reason I was not signed on! But now I come back signed on with the same question I'm in the different thread?)
Perhaps the following may be interesting and helpful for some. Changing duration of still in the time line can be quite useful when one needs to match the Video sequence with its added Audio. As you have a display of stills with transitions, animation etc. and you add some music to it. If they don't quite finish at the desire point. (usually with the end of the music, song). You can fine tune it (like within a few seconds) by shortening or lengthening the clip, clips duration. And if it's ok with what you have you can select the whole (video) time line and after deciding how much is the difference between your portion of music and your clips apply that time. Sometimes using only a few clips is enough other times the whole of it works better. I find it's ok only for a few seconds though as there are a couple of problem with this, The key frames may need to be readjusted and or even be out of action (as explained earlier) In that case it's probably better to have the video clips on a sequence of their own then add the music on a new sequence and match them this way on the same time line.
PS: Titles and anything relying in proper timing placement above this video display timeline needs to be checked, perhaps included or adjusted with clip or clips duration change.
I really was looking at ways of creating a sequence with a variety of animations that I could re used for other project with the "Copy" then "Paste Attributes" in the hope it would be quicker than going back to the "Contor Effect" function all the time. I remember using (MS Movie Maker) and it had a few icons for this purpose that one would apply for a clip. It was rigid but quite effective. This way even if I needed to adjust the key frames, they would already be in place. (I already use this technic with similar pics, I copy one animation I like and "paste attributes to a bunch of pics, sometimes reverse the key frames, "copy" then select alternate pics from the previous selection and paste the new attributes to them... May be not everyone's taste!
So if I could import such a sequence in my Projects and place it on Video 2 with each pic. labelled with its appropriate animation and obviously key-framed accordingly. (I would have created a photo folder and renamed each of its photos with one of the desired labels, ie Pan down, Pan left, Zoom in, Rotate %, etc) - But I thought I hit a snag with the duration....
I have actually gave this a quick try and it seems to have some value. I just found out that it's worthwhile to get the shortest but meaningful labeling for this "templates" in order to identify them easily in their smallest view (time line zoomed out) ie Pan Left = PL, PR, PU, Zi, Zo etc.

How can I change the default cover image in iTunes?

Good evening everyone!
I've scoured the web for this info but can't seem to find it. Is there a way to change the default cover image in iTunes to one of my choosing? You know the one I'm talking about right? The transparent CD cover with the musical note in the middle of it... the one that shows up when iTunes can' find appropriate cover art for your music. I have another image I'd like to use instead, as I've never liked the default image at all. The one I have to replace it is an image of a blank CD case. Kinda cool and would look infinitely better than the default in my opinion.
Has anyone done this before? If so, can you describe to me how it's done, or point me to somewhere on the web that describes how? Many, many thanks in advance Have a great weekend!!!

I understand what you mean - I too, would like to see some variability in the 'default'. Besides having a single default, I would step that up to a default that changes with genre and media: ie. I could see using a sax for Jazz; a microphone for a Podcast, etc.
I don't have the answer to your question yet, but I think I'm going to crack open the iTunes package to see what default images there are embedded in there.
