Slow motion clip doesn't publish slow on Facebook

My video on my 5s publishes fine, just not slow motion. Is there something I'm doing wrong???

Hi,
this Effect you describe is exactly my Problem!!
I am trying to export a clip to flv containing lots of slow motion,
but it has a bad quality compared to PRO 2.0 -
the resolution, bitrate etc. are the same - what am i doing wrong?

Searching for a low-cost plug for doing better slow motion clips.

Where can I find a low-cost or free plug-in for doing better slow motion clips? I produce alot of sports videos and use FCPHD but am looking for better quality. I am not necessarily looking for time-remapping (it confuses the ** out of me). Just want to simply slow down clips and not be as choppy as FCP turns out.
Thanks for any help!

Slow motion clips drastically reduce editing performance

I wondered why one project was slower than a similar sized other project (20 min). I moved the project cursor from the end of the project systemmatically towards the start. As I moved it, response got slower and slower. This was the clue. I started to set 50% clips back to 100% as I went backwards through the project and performace rapidly increased. I had both sound and video tracks in the project. Therefore, the more slow motion clips you use the slower editing will become as you progress towards the start of your project.

Did they import as a single long clip?
I would recommend dragging the long DV clip into MPEG Streamclip (a free app from Squared 5).
You can drag the long clip into MPEG Streamclip and divide the long clip into multiple shorter clips. You might divide it into logical events (all clips shot on the same day) or you could make a new clip every time record/pause button is pressed.
Move the playhead to the in point and press I, move the playhead to the Out point and press O. Then File/Export to DV. Repeat until you have all the clips.
Hint: If you know the date and time the clips were shot, give the files a name in the form clip-yyyy-mm-dd hh;mm;ss.ext where hh is hours in 24 hour time and ext is the current file extension (in your case DV).
Then use FILE/IMPORT/Movies... to import into iMovie as separate events.
That should give you good performance.

Any tips on making slow motion clips "smoother" (interpolation)?

I was not able to find this in the documentation.
I need to render a sequence with a clip that is at 40% speed (slow motion), this clip is of a time lapse weather (clouds) video.
I would like to know what type of interpolation Final Cut Pro uses (if any) and if there are any methods to improve the fludity of clips that are set to slow motion. Right now the section of the rendered video where the slow motion clip is (the clouds) appear a bit "jumpy' and I would like to have them a bit "smoother".

Thanks, I've tried a couple from everyone's suggestions; from frame blend, to motion blur, and to the optical flow (in Motion).
The problem is that with cloud time lapse video in slow motion there is still some level of "jumpyness" from one frame (one time lapse frame, not frame in the video file) to the other.
With optical flow, it is quite nice, but it makes it move incredibly smooth from one frame, but then pauses, and then incredibly smooth to the next, so it's not really usable for cloud time lapse video.
I'm still hoping for some kind of better interpolation effect that I haven't found yet.

Can't add anything on top full motion clip

I have several full motion clips in my simulation. Each has
some sensitive information I want to block out by inserting a
Highlight Box. I've done this on several of my full motion clips
with no problem. However, I have one clip that simply will not show
ANYTHING that I put on top of the clip--only the clip will display.
You can see a screencast of the problem at the link below. Any help
is greatly appreciated!

A civil request for more information! Of course, it isn't
really meant to be civil, and it isn't really a request for
information, but still, it's a suggestion worthy of taking
seriously. I've already answered that question in a general sense,
but I can repeat my thought processes in a step-by-step, and hope
that "jsheeha" and others might benefit (assuming that everyone
hasn't already tried it on their own).
And if you can learn something in the process, all the
better, Rick. Glad you asked, though the application is so simple
that explaining its use feels ~ odd, somehow.
(by the way, what is "an OP"? I have seen you use that term
before but am unfamiliar with its use - thanks)
To continue, what "jsheeha" gave us appears to be a
(Camtasia?) clip of a larger project clip. I don't like making
assumptions, but that one is required in this case. The below steps
won't work in every situation, perhaps, but they represent some of
the capability of the FMREditor for Captivate, and as such, are
worth a look, a little thought, and a little imaginative use.
1) Create a new movie without the offending title-bar
contents.
2) Be sure it is the same physical size (X pixels width by X
pixels height)
3) Publish it to SWF (HTML file is unnecessary at this
point).
4) Load the entire original full-motion recording (published
SWF) into the FMREditor.
5) Go to the point at which the offending material appears.
6) Click the "Toggle Marker" and change to "Insert SWF" mode
if necessary
7) Select the previously published replacement movie (or
isolated frames, as necessary)
8) Insert it into the original FMR, combining the two.
9) Using the Toggle Marker once more, change to "Delete" mode
10) Move to the beginning of the "bad" section and mark it.
... you can "mark" beginning and ending frames by moving the
playhead to the point you want to begin or end, then "click" the
inward-facing black arrows, the left will set the beginning, the
right will set the ending frame ...
11) Go to end of "bad" section and mark it as well.
12) Delete the portion containing the sensitive information.
13) Save the changed project.
I realize that you are probably not
really interested in learning how to do this, Rick, and are
just continuing in your efforts to prove me wrong in everything I
recommend to others. But I wrote this anyway, in the hope that the
thoughts might be helpful to "jsheeha" or other interested users.
If it doesn't work in this particular situation, the FMREditor
might be helpful to someone in a different situation now, or at a
later time. Again, I hope this was helpful, and by the way Rick, no
apology is necessary - just quit trying to prove me wrong every
time I contribute to a thread. Thank you.

Motion Clips Come Up Short In FCP

I'm working on a 30fps motion project. When I bring it across into FCP it shows as the right length on the timeline, but cuts to black a few frames (roughly equivalent to the number of drop frames you'd expect) before the end of the clip.
The same thing happens in both FCP 30fps and 29.97fps timelines. The motion clip just ends before it ends (if you see what I mean).

Hmmm it's working for me but I'm running Motion 2.0.1 and higher.
Maybe something buggy in Motion 1?
I go to file>export and then choose
kind: Quicktime Movie
export preset: DV NTSC Movie (but this doesn't matter right now)
then I go into options and click the advanced button which should open up Compression settings and change the Compression type from DV/DVCPRO - NTSC to Animation and make sure the depth is set to Millions of Colors+
and voila! ....any luck?

Motion Clip help

Okay, I have my motion Clip done with an actions layer and
the code in the actions layer. I have my MC instance named jiggle.
When I test the MC it moves like I want it to and the rollover with
the hand works to. BUT , what doesn't work is, The MC goes without
me clicking on it to go. PLEASE HELP!
My code is below, what am I doing wrong?
jiggle.onRollOver = function() {
jiggle.gotoAndPlay(2); //assuming stop(); is on frame 1
jiggle.onRollOut = function() {
jiggle.stop(); //or my_mc.gotoAndStop(1);
jiggle.onRelease = function() {
getURL("seeOurOffice.htm");

Well it's a 5 second clip which I exported from FCP and made self contained. and it's HDV, so it's not very large.
I actually just started sending the clips to motion from fcp and it works but I'm wondering if when I do optical flow in motion does it analyze the entire clip that it came from or is the FCP - Motion function smart enough to only send that clip?

Video clips doesn't work in new keynote

I recently upgraded keynote after installing os x maverick.
When I opened my previous keynote presentation, the new keynote asked to upgrade the movie quality.
And you have to click this option, otherwise the video clips will only come out as pictures.
But now, some of the video clips doesn't work. The thing is, I do not have the original video files as these are presentations given to me by others.
What's next for me?

Having the same problem, would greatlyu appreciate a fix. does it matter if one upgrades to the iOS or Mac Keynote options?

How do I create a split screen on a motion clip in Photoshop CS6?

I have a project due soon and the last requirement is to "create a split screen on a motion clip". Any ideas? Thanks!

In the time line panel you will either need to split the video by moving the playhead to the location then click the split button. Or you can add another video if you want two different video's playing.
Because one video is on top of the other you need to scale both videos so they fit the screen. Select one video the press ctrl-t on windows or cmd-t on mac to enter transforms mode. Click and drag the corner to scale the video. Then repeat for the other video. You will also have to move the video's into place.
When satisfied click enter or return on keyboard.
Ex. For standard video the document should be (in the USA) 640x480 pixels. (I believe Adobe states it should be 720x480 for video, but this is only an example)
So, to place two video's side by side each video would have to be divided by 2 for the width. 320x480
When you move the video's they should snap into place.
For two video's that stack, the height would be divided by two - 640x240

I have iWeb '08 and just switched from Mobileme to GoDaddy and using Filezilla. Now when I make changes through iWeb it doesn't actually publish to my desktop folder. In fact, it doesn't publish at all but says that it did.

Heavily filtered Motion clips crashing FCP

Hi,
I am having some serious issues with a fcp project involving a lot of keying of clips done in Motion. All was running more or less smoothly until I apparently let one too many of my completed motion clips remain unrendered in my fcp timeline. Now I can't access my timeline without hanging/crashing every time I try to navigate within fcp.
I would really appreciate anyone who can help/present a workflow that might save my butt and allow me to continue working on a project with a very swiftly approaching deadline.
My G5 power mac has 8 gigs of ram, and a Geforce6600 graphics card. The material is XD cam EX 1080p 25.
Many thanks in advance!
-Tom

Well, rename or hide the Motion projects (or at least a few of them). FCP won't be able to find them and your crashing should stop.
Render the ones you have left in your timeline. Save. Exit. Bring back one or two more Motion files. Open your FCP project again. Render them. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
Post back,
Patrick

Combining stop motion clips into one?

Hi I am trying to create a stop motion music video(1 minute long) but considering what is the best method to take. Everything in the scene will be moving through stop motion. Can I create separate motion clips for each element in the movie and then combine them in layers in after effects and using the transparency to get rid of the background information in each clip(im using just a white background)
OR will I need to do the stop motion with all the elements moving together?
Help! Thanks

You could do it that way, using a white background and making that transparent. Making white disappear is not trivial.
But "create separate motion clips for each element in the movie and then combine them in layers in after effects and using the transparency to get rid of the background information" is a highly unusual way to approach stop motion. You would only do it that way if your individual elements or characters do not interact with each other in any physical or implied way on your set. I think most of us would use a dedicated stop motion application with onion skinning and variable playback to an external monitor, create scenes with all active elements, edit the scenes together with music and sound effects and dialog in a video editor and use After Effects for effects and compositing.
Have you done stop motion before? If so, what made you decide to, or what about this particular project suggests that you try this approach?

I downloaded Motion 5 extra content several times, but where is it? Motion 5 doesn't seem to recognize and I'd like to confirm its on my disk somewhere. Any ideas?

Applications you download from the Mac App Store store any extra content within the application package itself.
To see if you have the content, right-click, or control-click the Motion 5 icon, and choose "Show Package Contents" - in the new window that appears, open the Contents folder. If you have downloaded the extra content you'll see a folder named Library Content, which should be around 1 GB in size.

Motion clip darkening video in Final Cut Pro

Hi all
I'm having trouble adding some motion graphics over the top of some video using Motion and Final Cut. When I drag the Motion clips, which contain little more than some animated text on a transparent canvas, into Final Cut, the video is darkened for the duration of the Motion clip. The appearance is like adding a black layer over the video at about 10% transparency, but obviously no such layer exists in the graphics. Any ideas?
FYI, the settings for these clips/videos are the same as ones I did recently, and no such darkening occurred. I'm stumped...

Are you rendering into RGB or YUV?
