Slow video down to single frame, pause a few seconds, then speed back up?

I'm working with a video clip where I'd like to show a single frame for a few seconds. I think I can figure out how to slow down the video for a second or two surrounding the desired frame, but I can't figure out how to pause or freeze it at that point.
I'd like it to be fairly smooth on the slowdown, stop, and start up, I'll also have the audio slow down and stop, I think it will be a neat effect.
Any good ideas?
iMac 20" Mac OS X (10.4.10)

I'd like it to be fairly smooth on the slowdown, stop, and start up
A possibility is to use the Time Remap free filter. Use the default Mode (Variable Speed) and keyframe the Speed control from 100% to 0% on the frame you want still, and back to 100%. You can also use the Smooth contextual command on the 0% keyframe to get a smooth speed change.
What the filter does not do, though, is to change the audio speed...

Internet slows down or shuts off for a few minutes, then goes back to normal. What should I do?

So I've been away for a while and when I got back to US I've had some issues.
It's the same internet connection as before, so I'm not sure if that's the problem.
When I use an internet browser everything goes well for a while and then internet suddenly slows down or shuts off , it dosen't show dissconnect or anything.
The only thing that happens is that pages won't load, or they load super slow. This usually happens for a few minutes.
I got my macbook this september and I'm careful with not blocking the fans.
The same thing happens when I play games online, the internet "shuts" off or slows down, freezing the game. I'm now unable to play that game because of this issue.
I really don't know what could've causes this and I'm not really sure how to check, I would appreciate any help.
When this issue happens it dosen't seem to be because of what I have open, how mane pages, or over heating.
(I'm not a hundred percent sure about the heat, it gets warm but hot acctualy heated up as in when it's running heavy applications)
I'd like a response fast because this affects not only my gaming (which I really miss) but also everything else like HW, since the page would die suddenly.
Please help
p.s It's a wifi connection and I don't have acess to use a cable. I'm trying to get a hold of the password to the internet since I only have it locked on my laptop as "go-to" connections.. My landlord has the password ..

Have you tried resetting the SMC?

My macbook pro starting running extremely slow, to the point where it freezes every few seconds then catches up again. This happened out of the blue, didn't change anything on the computer.

I did the etre check and these were the results. I don't know if this is helpful or not.

VIDEO OUT OF SINGLE FRAMES ?

I use Premiere Pro CS5 to get video out of my 3d renderings. But I have a bad problem:
I can import numbered picture files to get a clip - which works fine. The single frames have been rendered already 1920x1080 for full HD video.
The problem is - I can´t get a playback within the preview or working window. While the cursor runs smoothly through the frames within the sequence window, the preview window jumps and shows some random frames only.
If I import the exported file back, it will playback smoothly without problem, this way my machine should be capable to do it as it is same resolution, only video instead of single frames.
Anything I can do to get smooth playback of image sequences ?
It doesn´t make much sense to export video first before being able to add sound as I don´t have any control for syncing while the clip is a numbered frame import only.

Thanks a lot for that hint - this way I should consider to get another HD - though there is plenty of capacity on my 1 TB build in.
I don´t do much video editing yet - don`t even have a camcorder, just trying to do some 3D rendering videos. As these use to have few seconds only I never considered to get additional hd space for that.
Just made another observation - I did a 8 second test rendering overnight at 800 x 450 - this plays fine after being imported. It´s just the native HD rendered 1920 x 1080 that cause that trouble...

I sent an email from my iPhone 3GS (via iCloud account) with around 16GB of attachment. It slowed down the phone for a few seconds, then appeared to be sent. However, the message is now not in the sent box, and I can't see an outbox at all. Any ideas?

That changes things a little bit , login to icloud.com and see if you can find it in your sent folder.
If it is there you did send, just need to wait until you phone syncs "sent folder" perhaps on wifi.
If it is not, then I would say it is lost and you may have to send again. They have 20 megs limit, so make sure that message plus attachment is under that limit.

I just figured out the print quality issue for my wife with her new iMac and new printer.
She replaced both at once and she couldn't understand why her Artisan 730 was lower quality then her Epson R280 when they had the same specs.
Turns out the newer printer had the option to connect via wifi which we used during setup.
The driver options are completely different depending on how you connect.
Once I connected via USB the correct options were available and the print quality was better.
Looking at the R2400 it dies not have wifi, but while researching the problem for my wife someone esle was having an issue updating to the latest printer driver.
If you go into the print utility from the Printer and Scanner system preference and under the general tab you should have driver 5.5.
One user had to delete the old printer driver before Software Update loaded the newer printer driver.

On my MacBook Pro (w Snow Leopard) I always had to reconnect my wifi at home when it woke up. I upgraded my router from an old Netgear to a newer N D-Link and stopped having to do that.
I would be surprised you would have that problem with an Airport Extreme, you might check to see if there is a firmware update for it.

Videos pause every few seconds

Hello, I was having a heck of a time
trying to fix this problem... and I finally managed to get the flashplayer reinstalled plus the shockwave thing too.
So now I can watch videos again but the problem is that they pause every few seconds.
Can anyone please help me with this problem?
I use Windows XP
Internet Explorer 8.0.661.18702
I have a Hewlett Packard Computer.

Laptop pauses for few seconds fequently

My laptop pauses for few seconds every 2-3 minutes . And this happens after around 15 minutes use of my laptop. What could be the problem?

Binita,
Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
Could be almost anything:
A program might running 'round in circles and slowing eating up all your memory is one guess.
Your system could be in need of maintenance -- the disk might be badly fragmented: Your files might be spread all over the place -- and in pieces -- and far away from each other. This is relative, of course. The "far away" is tiny distances and the amount of time it takes your computer to gather data is tiny amounts of time -- but it can add up to big delays after awhile -- delays that you notice.
Your computer might just have too many junk files that are "getting in the way" of a clean operation.
Your computer might have little bitty mistakes in the File System that are making it hard for the computer to perform its tasks. Tech speak for File System Errors.
It could be a network problem, although this is something you will have to track. The fact that the issue starts after you have been on the system for awhile means you need to know what you are doing during the slow-down to have an idea what you are looking for. The Task Manager can give you an idea whether the Network traffic is heavy and the Performance Monitor can help track traffic hogs.
Could be your Internet Service Provider dragging down your service -- this is harder to track, this is outside of the purview of this forum, and this is not an HP problem although you will find lots of people swearing that ISP issues come back to the computer being the culprit. If you are streaming, gaming, or using the system for anything that your ISP dislikes, it may put a choke on your service after a specified time.
Could be malware -- This is a different arena and you need to look to your Security Software to see if there are issues there. Run a deep scan to be sure the system is clean.
You might take a look at the following and follow at least some of the suggestions:

Videos stop after few seconds then continue

My system is W7 Home Premium 32 bit and IE 8
Just recently I find that when I try to play a video clip (generally BBC News
but also others) the rotating circle of dots displays whilst the video is loading
but it then plays (sound and vision) for only a few seconds then stops for about
10 seconds and then resumes playing right through to the end. If I click on
'play again' it will play the complete video without any interruption.
At first I thought this was my system malfunctioning, but having set up a laptop
for a friend (using W7 Home Premium 63 bit and IE 8) the same thing is happening.
I am posting to this forum as it seems that many video problems are down to
aspects/settings of Flash Player.
All suggestions to resolve this problem greatly appreciated.

Hi, I am glad you were able to get into the BBC site. You may probably know that the BBC are
forbidden to broadcast commercial advertisements in the UK, but I understand they are allowed
to do so for some of their foreign broadcasts - to recoup some of their expenses.
It occurs to me that because the news video was preceded by an advertisement, the video had
enough time to completely download before it started to play. Does that sound reasonable?
I get the feeling that my problem is concerned with buffering and the video is starting to play before
it is completely downloaded; as I said previously, replaying the video (when the whole file is presumably
in memory) it plays right through without interruption.
As I stated in my first post, viewing videos on my friend's laptop is also having the same problem.
Instead of connecting the laptop into a network, I have disconnected my own desktop Ethernet
connection from my modem and then connected the laptop via the Ethernet. That means that the
common things to both systems are the modem and the Internet connection to my ISP, which
makes me wonder if there is a problem with the modem? It will be interesting to see what happens
when I take the laptop back to him and connect via his router.
Having checked the Shockwave Flash Object I was surprised to find it is version 10.0.045.2
whereas Adobe's 'about' page informs me that I have version 10.1.102.64 of Adobe Flash Player
installed. I understand that Shockwave is installed as part of Flash Player so do not understand
the discrepancy between versions. Could the different versions cause a conflict? However
my friend's laptop shows 10.1.102.64 for Shockwave and Flash Player.
The files in the Flash folder are - Flash101.ocx, Flash Install.log, FlashUtil101_ActiveX.dll
FlashUtil101_ActiveX.exe and install.log
With regards to streaming another site I go to is EarthCam - http://www.earthcam.com/usa/newyork/timessquare/
and have no problems watching this.
Hope you may be able to deduce something from all of the above
Thanks

Try loading the same video in different browsers (Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Internet Explorer are your best options). If the issue is across all of them, make sure you've downloaded the latest version of Flash at http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
If it's still stopping after that...Do the tried and tested method for everything: reset your router.

Slow video down to single frame, pause a few seconds, then speed back up?
