Transition stuck in Photo Album theme between video clips

I'm working with iMovie 11 and it's the second time this is happening to me. I made a movie using the Photo Album theme that combines video from my iphone and photos. I have a 27 minute movie and I'm pretty much done except that I haven't added music yet. Now I noticed I get stuck again between transitions from one video to another.
It's a theme transition that's 3.4 s with one clip of 17 s and the other of 7 s. I've tried to go back as far as I could to see if I can get to the point where it wasn't stuck but I can't.
After trying all kinds of things last time I gave up after hours of frustration and started building the exact same thing from scratch and then it was fine. I really don't want to keep doing this as I've put in lots of time again in this project. I've just tried to change themes, adjust the length of the transition but with no luck.
One reason I switched to a Mac was movie editing but right now I'm not a very happy camper...
Can anybody help me before I pull my hair out???

One more thing I just noticed. I saw that it happens at a bunch of transitions. Some of the video clips have a small yellow 24, 25 or 27 in a grey box on the lower left corner of the clip. I think that's the frame rate. I just thought it happens when it switches between clips with different frame rates but that's not always true either... Can't find a consistent reason. Sometimes it happens between a pictures and a video clip too.

    How or can I insert a picture to an exsisting photo album in between other pictures?

    The easiest is to use 3rd party apps like Photo Manager Pro; you can drag pictures to any position.

  • Black between video clips

    I'm trying to insert black between video clips and can't seem to find the option to do so. I've tried inserting a text in black with a black background, but it just outlines it. I tried inserting a 10 sec 'fade to black' transition, but you can't insert anything into that 10 seconds. The only thing I can think to do is to film in a dark room or with the lens covered and to import that.... does anybody know what I can do? Please help!!
    thanks~

    Open the transitions menu (the square icon with 2 triangles to the right of the "T" (type) icon. All menu icons are located just below the right corner of your movie window. The music symbol, camera symbol, etc...
    Choose the Fade to Black and drag it between the clips where desired effect should be. You can even double-click the transition once its placed into position and adjust the amount of fade time.
    Hope this helps

  • Toggling between video clips (not audio clips) in the timeline

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there is a solution to this small inconvenience I am experiencing in FCP 5. When I have snapping enabled, and press the down arrow key, the playhead jumps to the next audio or video clip in the timeline. I am trying to find out if there is a way to jump between video clips only.
    Thank you
    -Peter

    Thanks,
    Do you know if there is a way to make the up/down arrows snap to only the video cuts on the video clips in the highest video tracks in the timeline? Thanks.

  • Do any one knows how to add those arrows from the right and left side of the screen in the youtube widget which allows you to navigate back and forth between video clips?

    hi,

    how do I get them back or is there a way to sync photo albums between iPhone and iPad .

  • CS3 tools interactive photo album and small video

    Sorry to ask something that I should know.
    I have 2 the CS3 tools, photoshop & AI and the full production studio of CS2. I haven't used these tools for mnths (nearing a yr) and didn't have a whole lot of experience even when I used them daily.
    Cutting to the chase... I want to create a short video and an interactive photo album to go on a settop playable CD-rom.
    I don't need help with the video part. But am at something of a loss about the interactive photo album. I've done quite a few animated photo-albums but the only interactive part was with DVD menus.
    I'm not really talking about a lot of interactivity. I plan to put the pictures in pages and would like the user to be able to turn the pages.
    That is, I'd like the pages static but turnable by user/viewer.
    Maybe menus would be one way to do it, but wondering if there is some way to make it a little less clunky. Ahh .. maybe all I'm describing is chapters.. but even then I'm not sure how to do that on a CD-rom as opposed to a dvd...... still any input would be welcome.

    I have a similar problem. I have DreamWeaver8 and installed a
    demo version of Fireworks. Fireworks works fine when I just want to
    open an image to edit.
    However when I try to create a Photo Album I am prompted to
    install Fireworks. I have 21 days left in the trial version.
    thank you

  • Photo album theme in iWeb that are the same as the old MobileMe wanted!?!

    I really liked MobileMe and made many Albums with specially design firstside photos. That means they are square with four sides equally long. I put down quite a lot of work and now I would like to get hold on a simple, goodlooking theme for photoalbums with an index with square photoholders. That all I want.
    Anybody seen anything like this? Could someone do it or tell how to do it??
    Many Thanx Anyhow!

    Yes, but that´s the very problem - I have downloaded and I have 98 different themes of allready made photo albums for iWeb, and all of them got - as You say - a rectangle frame for the indexpage. That will crop the albums first picture in a very irritating way - specially since I remade all of them to fit in a square (like the MobileMe album had). They worked as a frontpage of the album, with text and sometimes with a suitable frame in the picture. In iWeb, they will all be cropped to a middle section of the square.
    But in the iWeb´s albums next page - usually a kind of a lightboard, showing all pictures in that album - the square format are kept, likewise in following pages, showing a blowup of each photo.
    I think now the only way to get the index to look nice with my square photos, will be for me to add marginals on each side on all the first´s to fill up a rectangle frame. But it´s impossible to do it unvisible. It will be noticed.

  • Photo Album app and Video viewing crashes the whole phone

    Hi.
    Not sure whether there is already another forum for this? 
    I am running android 4.3.
    I have found that when I go into my photo album and scroll right the way down to the bottom of the page, the pictures stop showing a thumbnail and instead all I am shown are blacked out squares.  When I then scroll to the top of the page the thumbnails that were previously there then turn black too.  This then has the effect of crashing the whole phone.  What I mean by this is that it becomes unresponsive, the back and home buttons do not work and I am then shown a barrage of "Album is not working" or "Google+ is not working" or "system is not working" messages..
    This is also the case when I am attempting to view videos.  The phone will play some videos but then all of a sudden it will begin to become unresponsive in the same way as I have mentioned before. 
    When the phone has become unresponsive, the screen times out and I am unable to access my phone again for a good few minutes. When I can eventually access the phone, I have found the same sort of messages and unresponsiveness will occur again when I enter these apps or try to view videos through the movies app or another video viewing app and I am forced to restart the phone. 
    The issue with album app occurs every time I try to access the photos at the very bottom of the page.   The issue with the videos appears to be more temperamental and will occur every so often and through either the movies app or when viewing videos through alternate sources such as facebook.
    I have only recently bought the Z1 and I have to say I am incredibly disappointed by the device so far! 
    Can anyone offer any sort of guidance or tips on what I should do?
    Thanks!

  • How can I make my photo albums sync between devices via iCloud?

    I've recently started using iCloud to sync my iPhone 5 and iPad (original iPad). Problem is: new albums I create on my iPad in Photos are not appearing on my iPhone in Photos.
    I thought they were meant to sync automatically but I've waited a week for them to sync and nothing has changed.
    I just went into iCloud in my iPhone and did 'Backup Now' and upon completion, it's made no differecne to my missing photo albums.
    Photos are turned on in iCloud on both devices.
    Is there a way to 'force' iCloud to sync them up?
    Thanks in advance for any help offered.

    Is your phone number checked in Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at. If it is selected in there, make sure that nothing else is checked that would cause the phone number to not be used.
    Sometimes all that you have to do is to close the app completely and then launch it again and that might jump start the syncing of your messages. In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    If all of that is set up properly, you may have to sign out of messages on your devices and start over again. Start with the phone first so that the phone number is accessible to use on the iPad. Maybe this will be of some help.

  • How can I match sound quality between video clips and audio clips?

    Hi guys,
    First of all let me say that I enjoy using the latest Media Encoder. However, as a novice, I have two related problems.
    1.I am recording video to use with PowerPoint slides in Adobe Captivate. I am encoding the video with best quality FLV. This produces very good video,
          but with a degraded audio track, even though I had filtered the audio in soundbooth. The post encoding sounds like it did before Soundbooth corrections.
    2. Some of the video recording has been set cut into audio clips to be used as background narration behind PowerPoint. The logic behind this is: that if both are
          recorded at the same time, the voice quality should match.
    This is far from the outcome. I have tried MP3 for the audio which of course produced the best sound- but is entirely unlike the rest of the video. I have also encoded the audio with Windows Waveform preset figuring that since the soundbooth edit was a .wav file, that there should be a reasonable match. Wrong again!
    So, the audio quality of all clips is poor, and the difference between the encoded video clips, and the audio encoded clips spoils the otherwise professional result in Captivate.
    Please help, all of you experts.

    Thank you.
    OS Windows 7 x 64; 3.2 MHz; 2 TB; 12 GB Ram-9GB ram allocated to Adobe.
    My process is this:
    1. The whole video and audio narration material is shot in one continuous video sesseion.
    2. The microphone is only mono, but the camera is set to stereo. Noone can work out how to change the camera to mono.
    3. In Premiere Pro 5, I select render and replace in SoundBooth.
    4. In Soundbooth, I choose Add Multichannels.
    5. In Multichannels, I delete the unwanted noisy channel, and any other unused channels.
    6. With the remaining mono channel, I then select Export and Save As option, then Stereo.
    7. Next I edit the stereo channels as needed.
    8. The imported stereo won't automatically update in Premiere Pro, so in PPR I import the new edited stereo track.
    9. I test this track in PPR, to check that it is playing R & L channels. It is. OK.
    10 On the timeline, I proceed to cut apart this single stereo wavelength .
    11.These clips are saved as Video, or Audio subclips.
    12 From the video subclips, I export to Media Encoder, and choose either FLV4 match attributes (High Q). This I modify to custom 2 pass (Custom save).
         The summary says that this is saved to MP3 Stereo.
    13. I import this into Captivate 5, but the Video outcome is Left channel only. I have tested this on Media Player/Real Player where it is also L channel only.
    14. I export my Audio subclips to Media player, and select MP3 option and this summary also reports stereo. The Audio outcome is stereo, when played in any player and in Captivate 5.
    I cannot understand how a single, continuous track edited uniformly in Soundbooth to stereo, can produce different outcomes in Media player.
    I would so appreciate a solution to this problem, because, in the Captivate 5 e-learning production, the switch between stereo audio (behind PowerPoints), and l. channel video is distracting. Naturally, the l. channel only is a thin sound. It is as if it had never been edited in SoundBooth at all.

  • Missing sound between video clips

    I have been using PE10 for some while now. One thing that I have noticed is that when you put together clips there is a silent gap on the soundtrack which lasts about 3-4 frames. I use MTS files. When you add another clip to an existing one- if you go through the transition from one clip to the next frame by frame there is a short gap of 3/4 frames with no sound but still the picture. Currently I cut the next clip after I gone though it frame by frame until the first frame when the sound reappears. I them delete that small section and when the remaining clip automatically shifts and joins the previous clip I get an unbroken sound and picture transition. But I am curious as to why PE should introduce this silent gap in the first place. Any ideas?  
    cheers
    bill

    Thanks for the link. Is the solution to try using that tsMuxeR program or is there a better way of importing the clips into PE? Once I download the files/folders off the SD card from the camera I format the card ready for new recordings. So the only copies are on the main HD and backup external HD.
    When I use PE I use its "Get video from files and folders" option to find the files which are located in the Stream folder.
