Slow motion and recording options on x1

Is it possible to view a recording in slow motion?
Is it possible to capture an entire program if recording is started after the program begins?
The previous dvr offered through Comcast was able to do both. Also, it didn't lose recording capacity due to those early a.m. reboots, which is often rare and rather obscure movies are shown.

Yes, but only in that definition, no frame by frame playback as you could do in the past. No, the recording will begin once you press the record button. The TSB (time shift buffer) does not capture the begiinin of a show any longer for recording purposes. Capacity or capablities on that early recording statement? If you have cloud enabled, the daily reboot should not affect your recordings....

Slow motion and other effects are grayed out

Just switched from iMovie 9 to 11, and can't take advantage of the slow motion, instant replay and other effects, because they are all grayed out in the Clip menu. Why? I do not see the "convert entire clip" option referred to in the help file. What is wrong?

Yes, that is it. The trailers are pretty scripted.
If you want to add an effect to a trailer, first complete the trailer.
Then, in the Project Library List view, right click on the trailer name, and select DUPLICATE. (This will give you a copy of the trailer in case you want to edit it some more.)
Then, with the trailer name still selected, click FILE/CONVERT TO PROJECT.
This will turn your trailer into a normal project, and you can use any of the capabilities of iMovie, including the slow motion and instant replay effects.

Slow motion and reminder setting

Guys,
Is there a function for slow motion and for setting a reminder for a program rather than recording?
Cheers

No slow motion that I've found.

How to best achieve slow motion and fast motion

Hi - I am new to the forum and a basic user of Premiere Pro CS5. I am working on a project shot at 24 fps, and would like to do slow and fast motion.
From what i understand there are 2-3 different ways to do this in Premiere - choosing speed/duration of the clip from timeline, or choosing time remapping form effects panel ot using rate stretch tool. Wondering how do these compare and which is better - any pointers for this will be great help. Also is slow motion and fast motion better done in After Effects than Premiere. Or any recommended plugins that would work on cs5 and cs5.5. Thanks.

The main difference between using time-remapping and just using time-stretching is that time-remapping allows you to change the speed quite flexibly at different times in the same clip, whereas stretching just changes the rate for the whole clip.
See this page:
"Change speed and duration for one or more clips"
> Also is slow motion and fast motion better done in After Effects than Premiere.
After Effects has far more control, especially with regard to how new image information is created between the original frames when you change speed and require frame interpolation (frame blending). Pixel Motion and Timewarp use a very advanced motion vector method (based on the Foundry's Kronos software) for doing this.
See "Time-stretching and time-remapping".

Slow motion and speedup during a single clip

Is there a way to take a single clip, and slow down portions of the clip, while speeding up other portions of the clip.
Is there a way to adjust playback speed using keyframes I guess is my basic question, so the start of the clip is slow motion, then the middle is played back at an accelerated or normal rate, then the end of the clip becomes slow motion again.
-Roger

Yes, is the short answer. Using the time remapping feature in the "effects" panel (top center of the screen, second tab from the left) you can set certain portions of the clip to play back at normal speed, then slow it down in certain sections, and then speed it back up. You can also cut the clip using the razor tool (in the tools panel at bottom right of the screen) and just reduce the speed of that section of the clip. The downside to using the time remapping (if my memory serves me - don't take my word for it) is that you lose audio, but the transitions from normal to slow-mo and back are much smoother. Using the razor tool, you simply place the timeline indicator where you would like to begin the slow motion segment, then cut the clip with the razor tool, the repeat the process where you want the slow-mo section to end. Then, select the section that you want to play back in slow motion, and reduce the speed. This is the method that was used before the time remapping feature was available. The transitions are not at smooth, but you can keep audio for the sections where the speed isn't modified. Just be sure to select the "ripple edit" check box when you modify the speed/duration setting of the clip (right click the video clip to get the speed/duration setting dialog box).

Slow motion and Normal speed?

Can I take video shot 720p at 60 fps and use both slow motion and normal speeds in the same video??

Time Stretch is where I would start. If you need to apply that Effect to only part of a Clip, just use the Razor/Scissors Tool, to Cut that Clip, into the segments, where you wish to apply Time Stretch.
Posterize Time can be effective, as well, but from my reading of your needs, I think that Time Stretch (Rt-click the Clip, or Clip segment and apply).
Good luck,
Hunt

I would like to know when the slow motion video recording will come in 5c. in which update u will release it.

Dear sir ,
i would like to know when the slow motion video recording will come in 5c. in which update u will release it.

I'm afraid the processor in the iPhone 5c does not support that feature. Since you can't change the hardware setup inside the phone, this will probably not be introduced at all for this model.

Slow motion and frame rate and shutter speed

I have two cameras that record 60i and three that use 30p. Neither of the 60i cameras has a 30p option (one has a pf30). If I understand how FCPx handles this, if I drop both frame rates into a project, I get 30p out, correct? In effect de-interlacing the 60i footage to 30p. Is it best to import the 30p footage first to set that frame rate so that the 60i gets rendered to 30p?
We're producing a fishing DVD so good quality motion footage is important. This is an instructional DVD so I will be using some retiming to slow footage down to illustrate key points in the instruction.
I've read a lot of stuff on 1080i 60i vs. pf30 vs.30p vs. 24fps and benefits of using 720p vs. 1080i. Also looked at information on slow vs. fast shutter speeds.
So, the bottom line to get the best motion results for the DVD, I should be shooting at best bit rate possible, use 1080i 60i or 30p depending on the camera and let FCPx set everything to 30p. Correct?

For the 1080/60i media, it is best to have FCPX conform it to 30p (29.97p). [30p is a real timing: 30 exact frames per second, but it is not broadcast compliant. 29.97 is quite often simply referred to as 30, just for simplicity and/or laziness. The final decision for which to use rests with you. Also note, like "30 fps", 60 more often refers to 59.94 fps... for the same reasons.]
As for your target being DVD: DVD is always 480 lines whether it is anamorphic (16:9) or standard 4:3. If you would like to have "enhanced" slow motion, my recommendation would be to shoot in 720/60p (which is genuinely progressive "60" frames per second) and will give a slightly better edge on slow motion effects (retiming). That said, FCPX retiming is usually quite good no matter what the frame rate (frame blending recommended over optical flow [which tends to give a "morphing" effect when pushed too far].) 1280x720 frame size will give you plenty of downsampling resolution for DVD as well. [I *believe* that FCPX will use all of the 60fps available from the original video in retiming, even if the frame rate of the project is slower than the original media; so, 720/60p conformed to a 30p project and retimed to 50% will use every frame of the 60p slowed down by half... (somebody correct me if I'm wrong!)]
Best bitrate is also an important feature, but that is not due to the choice of format as much as that provided by the camera itself. Bitrates out of the camera may be relative to the frame size (they are in my consumer camcorders). A common consumer grade camcorder will top out at a bitrate (for 1080) somewhere between 17.5 and 22.5 Mbps, whereas an HD capable DSLR will usually top out at (easily) *twice* as much (45Mbps average from my Canon T4i) or more. Furthermore, the DVD standard imposes framerate restrictions (max is somewhere between 5 and 8Mbps -- the software that creates your DVDs will usually transcode for best bitrate, so not something you really need to bother with - just set the transcoder to best possible quality and provide it with the best quality video that's reasonable.) Whichever camera provides the highest bitrate should be your "main" camera.
As you may have discovered: another factor for a quality video regardless of camera is shutter speed. If you set the shutter speed too high (faster than twice the frame rate) then you will have "stuttering" issues (there will be "gaps" from still frame to still frame). Keep the shutter speed at the same or no more than twice the frame rate: e.g., for 1080/30p (target) the shutter speed should never be more than 1/60th of a second (I'll use 1/30th, 1/40th, or 1/50th usually). I haven't shot a lot of 720/60p, but I think I would still keep the shutter speed at between 1/60th and 1/120th exclusively [that is -- I wouldn't go as high as 1/120th or greater... but that's me... you should experiment for best results for you. If this creates exposure issues, then consider neutral density filters or circular polarizing filters to help bring scenes into exposure range (via aperture or iso or both.)

Good luck! Have a good shoot!

Unknown error. Slow motion and Panorama photo

Hello guys.
I just bought a Z2.
I was trying out the phone today and was trying most of the camera features.
Everything works fine exept when i try to film Slow Motion (dont remember the feature) and when i started filming, i got the message: "Unknown Error" the second i pushed the record button.
And when i try to use panorama it worked for 3 seconds and then it gave me half a panorama shot. After that i tried again and now i get the message: "Turn slower" or something like that. That i get after 2-3 sec. Then i try again and again. And now i get the message "Turn Slower" the second i press the photo button.
So something is wrong here.
Is this something everyone has a problem with? Do we get an update / Fix for this soon?
Is there something i can do to fix it?
Just one more question.
I got a smart band with my Z2, and when i tried to connect it to the phone, i got the message: "Chip is empty".
What does that mean? I got that message about 20-30 times before i suddenly could connect to it. And then the band disconnects alot, and when i try to connect it again, i get the same message and have to try a few times before it works again.
Have a great day people.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That seems odd, try this

Play slow motion videos recorded with an iPhone on a Mac

Hi!
I have the following problem. Yesterday I was recording some videos with my iPhone, some of that videos were recorded on slow motion (120 and 240 fps). Today I download that videos to my Mac but I have a problem. When I play the videos with VLC I see it normally, not in slow motion. So, how can I see it in slow motion? Doing some tests I saw that the video it's always follow for an .AAE file. Is there any way to have this two files in one?
Thank

Odd issue with slow motion and exporting

Hello,
I have a project with footage taken at either 24p or 60i settings on a Canon HF200. I'm using 7.0.1, ProRes 422 selected. Frame size is set to 1920x1080. I'm exporting using the "Share" menu and the Apple TV preset.
The project is divided into sequences. One of these sequences (whose source material shot using the 60i setting) is set to play in slow motion using the "change speed" option set to 50%.
Here's the odd part, to me at least:
When I export just the slow motion sequence of the project, it plays perfectly (good quality, smooth not jerky, no shadows/trails). But when I export all sequences joined together, the slow motion sequence (and just the slow motion sequence) appears stuttery, with trails on every action by the actors.
Another odd bit: when I export just a subset of the project including the slow motion sequence and everything after it, again the slow motion sequence plays as intended, after export. So the problem only occurs if I export the slow motion sequence with anything before it included.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Problem solved, but I'm not sure if it was my re-importing the clips, or un-checking the "frame blending" option that did it. I did both for no particular reason, and one of them worked.

Slow Motion and Frame Rates?

Hi I have a Sony NEX-VG20EH camera and it has an adjustable frame rate. I have put the frame rate on 8000 and recorded some footage. When i load it into Premiere it is still showing as 50.00 fps. I want to do some slow motion stuff but when i slow it down to 10% it is still quite "jumpy". Any ideas?

While many cameras DO offer the ability to "overcrank" for a short duration, such as to capture a golf swing in slow-motion, I looked at the specs for your camera and don't see that feature listed.
Raising the shutter speed means that the shutter is open for a shorter duration during the exposure of each frame of video. At slow shutter speeds, fast motion will look blurred on a freeze frame or during slow playback, because the subject moved quite a bit during the time the shutter was open. A fast shutter will "freeze" each moment in time clearly, but also lowers light sensitivity, so best used outdoors in good light.
It can be fun to play with shutter speeds - on my honeymoon, I was shooting the airplane prop out my window and cranked up the shutter speed until the prop STOPPED and I could read the serial number off of it in my viewfinder!! Note this was in the old days with CCD sensors - the new CMOS sensors have skew which warps the image in many cases.
Note that very high shutter speeds will result in choppy motion, so only use as needed.

Intermittant problems with slow motion and crash of Premiere Pro

Many complain about Premiere Pro's instability.
Since a couple of days I have the same problem. Every time I want to navigate from A to B, Adobe seems to either introduce a severe SLOW MOTION effect on it's own accord, that I never put in !!!, or it just CRASHES with an error message along the lines "Problem, Try again" or similar.
This is utterly frustrating !!! I have been trying for over 6 hours today to get this remedied, but no luck.
Looking back over the past days, the problems seem to have grown exponentially both in frequency and in duration.
Of course, this is not about the program, but about the Premiere Pro Forums.
Is there a 300-day refund period for Jives???
I suggest you use that opportunity Adobe. This is

OK, that makes sense.
OS: Vista 64 Business
Browser: Firefox 3.5.2 and IE 8.06
Symptoms:
1. The connection has been reset, try again. Often after 15 minute waits.
2. Nothing happens, just waiting for Adobe and even after 30 minutes, still waiting.
3. After posting, nothing happens. You press the post button, nothing for ages. You press Cancel, nothing.
4. All other pages load without problems and are responsive.
5. Top participants listing and most popular discussions are not displayed.

Slow motion and trailing in premiere pro cs6

attached is a sample of a clip edited years ago with liquid edition.
In liquid edition "timewarp editor" you could create slow motion together with trailing effect as it shows in the attached clip.
I wonder if it can be done in premiere pro cs6
thanks arikw

Well, you could do it manually if you wanted to. Just pile up a few tracks of the same clip and offset each one by a frame or two from the others. Then set the opacity to something low, like 25%, and see how that looks.
There may be an effect for it that I just am not familiar with.
