Swapping videos and maintaing motion properties?

I have an existing project with videos that are moving around screen and scaling up-and-down. I would like to swap a new video for some of the ones that are on the Canvas and maintain the same motion properties that were already applied to the current videos.
Is this possible? If so how? Using FCP 6
Thanks!

Ah, yes, thanks for that reminder, tom. IIRC, one must copy the clip from the Browser before pasting content.
Still, it's a weird kluge compared to After Effects (and possibly Premiere, which I've not used) where one simply option-drags and drops and all filters, settings, and meticulously crafted keyframes remain untouched.

  • Quicktime Swapping Video Height and Width

    I have a video with a resolution of 1280X720, and i have confirmed the videos resolution in its properties.  Opening the video in windows media player shows a widescreen type film, with the width of 1280 and height of 720.
    When I open the video in Quicktime, it takes the width of 1280, and makes it the height, and does the same with the width.  Essentially, it swaps the width and height values, so the resulting video is stretched vertically and compressed horizontally.
    I have tried uninstalling and installing quick time, to no avail. 
    More details:
    The video was created with a video maker app that comes standard on the galaxy s2.  Other videos shot with my phone, with this resolution play fine in quicktime.  It is only videos rendered from the video maker app.
    Its highly annoying because I would like to send videos to my friends, which I make, but I do not want to have to tell them to use windows media player, or to hold shift to adjust the frame of the video.
    Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks!

    That depends on what is wrong with the file. It would really help to see what the QT "Inspector" has to say about the file. For instance, this would let us know what matrix was used to encode the file, whether or not it was anamorphically encoded, and whether or not someone has modified the playback dimensions embedded in the file.
    It sounds as if the file may be anamorphic, playing back correctly in applications which use the PAR value to display the file at the correct aspect ratio while other applications that use the "Current Size" values embedded in the file are displaying the video incorrectly because the values were modified or not set correctly during the encoding operation. In this case, the normal procedure would be to correct the display dimension usin QT 7 Pro which does not require recompressing the data.

  • Slow motion videos and distorted sound

    Hi, using Vista, IE9, latest verison of Flash, video goes into slo-mo after a few seconds and sound distorts. Any ideas?

    To help troubleshoot could you give us the exact version of the version of Flash that is installed?
    Flash   Player version
    When reporting issues with video or audio, it's also helpful to get your system hardware and driver details.  Instructions for finding this information can be found here:
    dxdiag report instructions
    Finally, sometimes video and audio problems are caused at a lower level and not directly related to Flash Player.  I recommend trying both of the links below to see how they perform.  If the problem exists with both, then Flash Player is most likely not the culprit as the HTML5 video link does not use Flash Player when playing.  You can verify the use of HTML5 by right clicking the HTML5 video and looking for the words "About HTML5" at the bottom of the context menu.
    HTML5   video  
    Non-HTML5 video

  • Can  dual podcast capture switch between video and screencast be controlled

    HI
    We are experimenting with dual source podcasts - when using a screencast and video (say presentation and speaker respectively) - does anyone know how (or if) we can control when the main screen is zoomed to be speaker (ie the video), and when the presentation? at present it seems a bit hit and miss - motion/action related most likely? is there a hidden setting I can change in the workflow or metadata, or a keystroke flag I can introduce during the recording to set the swap, or stop it if needed. - or do I need just to maintain activity in the presentation window in some way?

    Let me thanks you for placing your app in my hands absolutely free of cost! I had downloaded the app nearly 2 months ago but could not get to use it, reason being...I could not find the video in the photo gallery. [                                                                           Where are my videos recorded with spotliter app?                     ]
    Now that things are fine, and the app improved further, taking up both videos and photos, I hope I would be able to develop skills in using it for my video needs.
    You have mentioned that the audio-video asynchrony I am experiencing with the front camera is not normal. Is there any way by which sync can be achieved? Should I trash the app and do a fresh download?
    Closing with a deep thanks for making such an app available.
    Regards and take care.

    I have used still photos to make a Quick Time movie using FCE.  The DVD made using i-DVD looks somewhat grainy and the motion isn’t smooth when played on my TV.  Other DVD’s I have made play much better and I am wondering if the problem is my Quick Time movie settings.  The Dimensions and size of the problem movie are 1920X1080 and 584 MB respectively, while the movies that play better  have Dimensions of 853X480 and are about 1.3 GB in size.  Is this the source of my problem and how do I change things for the better. 

    Are you exporting to QuickTime Movie, or to QuickTime Conversion?   For iDVD, you need to export to QuickTime Movie.   Exporting to QT Conversion will kill the quality if you are moving the video from FCE to iDVD.
    The file size per se makes no difference.
    What size (pixel dimensions) are the photos that you put into your 1920x1080 sequence?  Also, exactly what are the sequence properties ... is it 1920x1080i60 ... or i50?  In North America it should be i60.
    853X480 is an odd frame size.  Where are you seeing this number?  It would appear to be DV-NTSC, which has a frame size of 720x480.  Your 1920x1080 frame size would not be DV-NTSC, it would be Apple Intermediate Codec.   DV and AIC will look different, for sure.
    Also, your quality setting in iDVD can affect the final video.  You may want to check that also (in iDVD Preferences > Projects).  Set it to Professional Quality if at all possible.

  • Video and Graphics  Layer

    i want to display an video in the background and some images and text in the graphics-layer?
    plze help to seel the Video and Graphics Layer to be transparent in order to see the Video?

    Do not use timelines as menu transitions. Timelines are placed in a different physical location on the disc, often times AFTER your main video. So when you are on the menu, the laser is reading in one spot of the disc, then for the transition, it might have to seek all the way to the other side of the disc, causing delays and possible blackness while is searches.
    For my Pro Motion Menu Kits which incorporate advanced motion menus created in after effects, I use a different process.
    For the intro sequence, you obviously can't use a menu transition as there is nothing to transition from. The better method is to use a MENU as the intro sequence. Create a blank menu and set the intro animation as the motion background. Set it's end action to the main menu, and make sure you configure it to not loop. This will physically place the intro video with the other menus on the disc when it is built, and minimize any delays caused by seeking.
    As for the transition, you can use the menu transition feature of encore. With the button selected, go to the transition tab under properties and set it to your transition animation asset. You can only select a single asset, so a good way to include audio with the transition is to create an after effects composition with the audio and video, then import it into encore as a dynamic linked asset, and use it for the transition.
    If you want a complete walkthrough tutorial on how to set all this up in encore, I have created one for my Pro Motion Menu Kit products. It is freely available to anyone from the tutorial section of my site, and even if you aren't using my products, it can still be extremely helpful in how to implement custom motion menus using intros, moving backgrounds, and transitions that all seamlessly flow together.

  • How can I capture live video and still image by a DirectX compatible USB webcam using LabView ?

    Dear forum members
       I'd like to design a user interface which shows a live video and capture still images for it by a DirectX compatible USB webcam using LabView or NI Vision Toolkit, how can I do this ? and If this is possible How can I reach the webcam DirectX filter properties and set them using LabView ? I would be grateful to anyone Who lead me to the correct solution.
        Sincerely
        Cem DEMiRKIR

    Cem,
        With our example programs you can acquire and save an image (IMAQ >> File Input and Output >> Snap and Save to File.vi) from one camera, if you double the VI's to create the image and the image task, you can easily have one program acquire and save for two cameras.
        I may need more information on what you mean by calibration.  Do you mean basic camera setup?  That can be done in Measurement and Automation Explorer by setting up the options within the IMAQ settings for each camera.  Or do you mean more complex calibration for special types of images?  The more description of what you mean, the better I will be able to help you get it done.  You mentioned zoom and motion parameters, what kind of motion?  Our vision drivers only control triggering the camera to acquire, then analyzing, processing and displaying the resulting image.
        If you have more details on exactly what you want to do, that would be great.  Let me know if you have more questions, thanks!

    Glossary For This FAQ
    This bit is designed for clarity.
    Video is the sending and /or recieving of pictures and sound.
    Audio is the sending and or receiving of sound only.
    One-Way is the ablity to start either an Audio or Video chat from one end to a receipient who can not match your capabilities (or Vice Versa)
    What is needed
    At the Mac end
    A Mac running OS 10.3.x and iChat AV ver 2.1 or 10.4 plus iChat 3 or Leopard and iChat 4
    A DSL/Cable/Fibre (Broadband) connection of at least an up link speed of 256kbs.
    An AIM , @mac.com or MobileMe (@me.com) account name.

    At the PC end
    1 PC running windows XP (home or Pro). THIS A MUST
    The AIM Standalone Application, currently at ver. 5.9 at this link. AIM (the Site) now call this version Classic and it cannot be Installed On Vista
    Note: there is also Trillian which has a Pro version for $25 that can also Video and Audio chat. The Basic version just Texts and Audio Chats (AIM does not Audio chat)
    Some need the aimrtc12.exe file from Here Mostly Earlier than XP or Pre Service Pack 2 XP versions of Windows
    Note: It has been noted that this file is now apparently included in Windows XP after Service Pack 2 and above.
    An AIM account/screen name (AOL or Netscape count as well)

    At least one camera (Mac end)
    A sound input device (the camera, if it has one is ok)
    Your Buddies screen/account name in each others Buddy Lists
    Other tweaks
    For some people, using AIM on a PC, may also have to make sure their preferences (properties) are set in the AIM Buddy list, for their camera and /or Mic. (Tuning at Message 570)
    This is an icon button lower right on the Buddy List marked "Prefs" (AIM 5.5). This leads to the Preferences. Drop down the list until you read Live Video. Click on this. In the new window that opens click the button that says Tuning Video and Audio. Follow the instructions in the wizard that opens up. Access in AIM 5.9 for this is in the My AIM menu at the top of the Buddy list and then Options
    To Start
    You should now be able to chat to each other.
    If each of you has a camera it can be full Video , as described in the Glossary at the top.
    To start from the Mac end, select (highlight) your Buddy with one click. His camera icon should be dark. Click on the icon near his name or the one at the bottom of the Buddy List. (You do not have to start a text chat).
    To start from the PC end you need to start a text chat, then select the Video icon at the bottom of the chat window.
    If one of you has a camera and the other has a Mic then you will be able to chat One Way but have sound will be both ways.
    To start this type of chat from the Mac end you will have to go to the menu item "Buddies" and drop down to the item "Invite to One Way Video Chat"
    To start this from a PC follow the directions in the pargraph above. You may need to change the tab to the incoming Video at the back of the two to see the Video. These tabs are added when the Video chat starts and the front one normally states you do not have a camera and shows a connection to buy one.
    It is also possible to chat One Way if the other person does not have a Mic: replies will have to be typed in a Text chat.
    No Camera and No Mic will cause iChat to End the chat with "No Data Received for 10 Secs"
    Summary
    For any sort of sound to a PC using AIM, (Talk in PC or Audio in iChat) the Mac will need a camera. The other person can have a Mic and then live chats with sound both ways and Pictures (Video) the other.
    NOTE: At This Time It Is NOT Possible to Audio (sound only) between Mac & PC with AIM & iChat
    Trillian Basic can Audio. Trillian Pro can Video and has a bigger picture and can do Full Screen.

    This is an icon button lower right on the Buddy List marked "Prefs" (AIM 5.5). This leads to the Preferences. Drop down the list until you read Live Video. Click on this. In the new window that opens click the button that says Tuning Video and Audio. Follow the instructions in the wizard that opens up. Access in AIM 5.9 for this is in the My AIM menu at the top of the Buddy list and then, Options
    To Start
    You should now be able to chat to each other.
    If each of you has a camera it can be full Video , as described in the Glossary at the top.
    To start from the Mac end, select (highlight) your Buddy with one click. His camera icon should be dark. Click on the icon near his name or the one at the bottom of the Buddy List. (You do not have to start a text chat).
    To start from the PC end you need to start a text chat, then select the Video icon at the bottom of the chat window.
    If one of you has a camera and the other has a Mic then you will be able to chat One Way but have sound returned to you.
    To start this type of chat from the Mac end you will have to go to the menu item "Buddies" and drop down to the item "Invite to One Way Video Chat"
    To start this from a PC follow the directions in the pargraph above. You may need to change the tab to the incoming Video at the back of the two to see the Video. These tabs are added when the Video chat starts and the front one normally states you do not have a camera and shows a connection to buy one.
    It is also possible to chat One Way if the other person does not have a Mic: replies will have to be typed in a Text chat.
    Summary
    For any sort of sound to a PC using AIM, (Talk in PC or Audio in iChat) the Mac will need a camera. The other person can have a Mic and then live chats with sound both ways and Pictures (Video) the other.
    NOTE: At This Time It Is NOT Possible to Audio (sound only) between Mac & PC with AIM & iChat
    Trillian Basic can Audio. Trillian Pro can Video and has a bigger picture and can do Full Screen.

    Happy Chatting.

  • Iphone 4 Video and Xbox 360 as my PC's Windows Media Center

    I noticed that all video formats play perfectly over my Xbox 360 except for video shot with my iphone 4. It plays the video in slow motion while the audio is at regular speed. It's very annoying. Is their a fix for this or do I just need to convert the iphone 4 videos to h264 mp4, or regular mp4? Any quick fixes so I don't have to do the converting? When I play them on my HP they play just fine. I'm assuming it has something to do with the Xbox 360 not having an updated codec. Any ideas will be tried.
    Thanks

    I'm in the same Xbox 360 boat. I'm also amazed at the lack of information on this problem since the iPhone 4 has been out so long and the Xbox 360 received an update long after.
    It has to be a codec issue since the Xbox 360 can play 1080p content. The iPhone 4 720p video can't be more intensive than 1080p.
    While I'm at it why can't the Xbox 360 play iTunes Plus and iTunes Lossless audio, they're DRM free (I use Connect360 to get around the issue)? Seriously, Microsoft has to be doing it on purpose. Every attempt I've made to get this question answered has been met with a MS wall.

  • Quicktime plays video in slow motion

    Quicktime plays my video from a Sony NEX-3 camera [H.264 MP4 files] in slow motion. The images plays at a reduced speed, while the sound plays at full speed. One consequence is that image and sound is completely out of sync. The video plays fine in iMovie and MPEG stream clip.
    I tried in two Macs: a Macbook Air (10.6.6) and a Macbook (10.6.5) and on both the video is slow motion, but on the Macbook it is extreme slow motion, while on the Macbook Air it is slight slow motion [mainly noticeable through lack of sync between image and sound].
    Video from iPhone 4 plays without problems in Quicktime.
    Since iMovie plays the Sony video fine, I would assume it is not a Sony video problem, but a bug in Quicktime. How do I get Apple to fix that bug?

  • Uploading .WMV files to my Asset Library spawns 2 files in the library. One conent type = Video and the other = Image. Both have same name and are .wmv

    My 365 site is developed this rather odd behaviour.
    I think its as a result of something I did when I tried and failed to use Document Sets to mange video files.
    Anyway the result is like the title say's I know get two files in the library. What's interesting is the one that is content type = Video opens up the properties dialog for Video but does not play.
    The copntent type = Image file opens the image property dialog and does play.
    Note that I'm the admin for the sub-site, have very litle experience, no training and have ticked the site administrator off so much with stupid questions he's not talking to me so any help is very welcome.
    Thanks

    Hi Rebecca,
    Thanks for responding.
    I can't confirm that it's an OOB Asset Library becasue I don't know how to find that out. When I'm in Suite Content and click on ... then on About I get "Asset Library  A place to share, browse and mange rich media ssests, like image, audio and
    video files.' I so hopefully it is. Additional information - it worked okay before I messed something up when I was trying to create a documet set. It's broken all the libraries of this type on the site.
    Just tried creating a new library and I get the same problem.
    Just tried uploading an MP4 file and I get the same problem.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "When you uploaded the file, did you choose the content type as Video?" I use drag and drop or the Upload button and I am not prompted for a content type. The default content type is Video and I can't change the content
    type to video on the file that does actually play the video. The other file is a video content type but does not play.
    Sorry this is all very confusing I'm sure.
    I know I've done something to mess the site settings us when I fooled with Document Set's but exactly what I did and how to fix I know not.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Video and Audio not lyncing

    Help! I shot a video on miniDV. When I bring it into final cut express 4.0 the first 25 minutes of the 50 minutes is synced perfectly audio and video, and then all of a sudden for no reason the audio and video are not syncing properly. It is not because it's not linked, because just when I preview it in the viewer it does the same thing. HELP HELP HELP! Thanks!

    Open the clip in QuickTime and see if it does the same thing there. If so, then there was some kind of glitch at that point in the capture. This happens sometimes and you might consider recapturing the video.
    Does the sound go out of sync & stay out of sync by the same apparent amount, or does it drift further out of sync as time goes on?
    If the sound doesn't drift (meaning, it just goes out of sync by a fixed amount, say 1 sec) ... and the point where it goes unsync'd is not critical ... you might consider razor cutting your clip at that point in the timeline, unlinking the audio from the video in the portion of your clip that is out of sync, turn on audio waveforms, and then slide the audio clip back into sync with the video. It will take some noodling and you will probably have to zoom in on your timeline, but it can be done. Best to find some place in the clip where there is a sharp sound associated with a motion (a door slamming, for example) - that will make it easier to resync the audio with the video.

  • Video and audio formats for iPad

    Hey, guys.. I've tried searching this up in the forum but didn't have any luck with that..
    I can't seem to upload my movies and songs into iPad... I tried converting my movie into .mov and .mp4. They can both be imported into my iTunes library but when I drag it to the iPad tab it says it cannot be copied because it cannot be played on the iPad. And some of my albums just can't be imported.
    May I know the preferred format for my movies and my songs? And what could be the problem with my importing..
    Thanks heaps.

    Here are the spec for video and audio for the iPad:
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
