Transitions don't work!

I'm trying to learn about transitions. I have a brief clip that is split into 3 scenes. I've inserted variuos transitions, and I've set the duration as long as 10 seconds, but I still get a cut -- no transition. Rendering the clip doesn't solve the problem.
What might I be doing wrong?

It sounds like you are taking a single Clip, Cutting it, and then applying Transitions to those Cuts. Is that correct?
If so, then there is nothing to Transition from, or to. As a test, grab three different Clips, drag them to the Timeline, and then apply Transitions to those. Does that work better.
One major consideration with Transitions is Handles. This ARTICLE goes into much more detail, and explains Handles in detail. This is a concept that one must get their head around, when using Transitions.
Good luck,
Hunt

Transitions don't work with tracks

For some reason transitions don't work for me when I have them on tracks. For instance, Ive set a "dissolve" transition to occur at the end of Track 1 as it moves to Track 2. Instead, it simply jumps to the next track with no transition. Transitions seem to work with menus no problem, but once a track is involved, they stop. Im using DVDSP 4.
Anyone have any insight?

Hmm... you \can do this if you really need to... but you have to do a bit of jiggery pokery.
Take the last frame of your footage in the first track and open it in photoshop. Export it as a still image and take it back in to DVDSP, and add it to the very end of the video in the track. Adjust the length of it to be about 3 seconds and highlight it, and now add the transition you want.
The length is critical - the transition needs to take place using some of this image as the material. If you use a short transition you can use a short span for the image. If you don't, you need to extend the image. What this means is that your user will see the still for longer than necessary if you get this wrong.

Transitions don't work after importing a project from Premiere to AE

I've imported a project from Premiere CS3 to AE CS3 and all my transition (fade + wipes) are now solids and they don't work on timeline or on exports, but they still show in my sequence.
How can I make AE use those transition again so I don't have to go through all project and keyframe transitions.
Notice that I use Cineform and that those transition are Cineform's one; hope that doesn't cause the problem since AE uses CF too.
Thnak you for your time and interest in my problem.

Exactly the problem. AE is only to able to translate a few transitions, which include the normal cross-disolve, linear wipe, dip-to-color and a few others, but since those routines are hard-coded in the Premiere Pro Importer, they have no way f doing the same for third-party products. So more or less you will have to rebuild your stuff, either by using the proper transitions in PPro or in AE.

Transitions don't work (stay black)

Hello, I hope somebody can help me with the following problem:
I'm using Adobe premiere elements 7, and I'm trying to put some transitions between the videoclips. But only two transitions are working, it is possible to edit the other transitions and put them between the clips but when I preview them I only see a black screen (sound does continue playing) where the transition should be. Does anyone know what to do?
Thanks!
Jorien

Hello again,
I’ve enclosed the timeline, zoomed in. The first screen is the timeline with a transition that does work, the second one is the same timeline with a transition that doesn’t work. But what I’m thinking now, Is that the transition maybe does work, I just can’t see it on the preview-screen. I can see the transition in the timeline, but the monitor stays black during the transition. So maybe I do need some kind of videocodec (this is new computer, so that’s certainly possible)?
Grtz, Jorien

Importing movie file - transitions don't work?

Hi all, this is my first post. I searched a bit here and EVERYWHERE on the internet, but couldn't find a solution to my question.
I'm trying to import a .mov file I created in powerpoint. In the file there are smooth transitions, where one images fades into another. When I import the file, I can view the movie in the preview window (double click the filename in the Project tab). It plays fine, all transitions are intact. However when I drag it into my composition the transitions are gone and there is no fading. It's like there is an alpha channel that's not getting interpreted correctly. I've tried every setting in the Interpret Footage window for the Alpha channel.
I've done this in several other projects. It's always a pain to get past this part. For some reason I can never repeat the same steps to get it to work.
If anyone knows what REALLY going on and what I can do to import the footage properly, I would appreciate the help.
Thanks!

What version of After Effects are you using?
When you say "preview window", what panel are you actually referring to?
If you're referring to the player window that opens when you double-click a QuickTime footage item in the Project panel, then you need to know that in After Effects CS4 and earlier, this is just a QuickTime Player window.
Ah, that makes sense then.
I'm using CS4.

FCPX 10.1.2 : Transitions don't work

Hi there,
today I started my computer and launched FCPX, just like pretty much every day of the past 3 weeks. All of a sudden, I can't apply Cross Dissolves (or any other transition) to any clip. I constantly get this message:
I know that my clips need handles in order to make a transition work, and that is totally the case... in some cases, there are 3 minutes of footage before AND after the part that is in my timeline, so I don't see any reason for this message to appear. Also when I click on the "Create Transition" button, nothing happens.
This really grinds my gears and I have absolutely NO clue what could cause this problem. I googled for hours and reset pretty much everything there is to reset - without success.
I really hope that I will find some help here, I cannot risk this project to be delayed!
PS:
I'm still on 10.1.2 because I'm editing a big project and I don't want to risk it being delayed/damaged by problems with the newest version.

I managed to solve the problem.. it's pretty stupid! For some reason my default duration for transition was set to 0.06 seconds, YES, seconds, not 6 frames. 0.06 Seconds are equal to roughly 1.5 frames, which is clearly not enough to make a transition! The error message was a bit weird since it "lied" to me if you look at it that way

Button transitions don't work

I'm importing a Quicktime movie into iDVD 7. The movie was produced with FCEHD 3.5, and contains 2 chapter markers. None of the iDVD button transitions will work. No matter which transition I choose, the image flashes briefly to blank white, then to the expected beginning of the movie or scene. This occurs no matter which theme I use. Any ideas?

Hi
I don't use HD - but just thinking.
FCEHD 3.5, and contains 2 chapter markers.
a. No Chapter marks at the very start of Your movie - iDVD want's to do this by it self.
b. Export out of FCE/P WITH Chapter marks !
I do in FCE/P (SD)
• Export out as QuickTime .mov
• Not selfcontained (not important but saves time and spaces)
• NO QuickTime CONVERSION
• Export with Chapter Marks
• Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on boot hard disk (others don't count - at all)
• This QT.mov I import into a NEW iDVD project (can't be updated - if change -> make a new one)

Transitions between split clips don't work properly

If I split a clip in the project area, then put a transition between the two new clips, the transition doesn't work properly. It is most obvious with the Cross Dissolve, which doesn't work at all. Some of the others sort of look like they are working, but if you look closely, they are not working correctly- i.e. not in the same way that transitions between two clips dragged separately to the project area from the events area work.
Any one else notice this, or better yet, have a fix?

OK- I discovered a work-around.
In the project area if you select the split part following the transition, Cut it (Command x) then Paste it (Command v) back in the proper place, the transition works properly. Usually cutting and pasting the following half of a split clip fixes the transition, but sometimes I have to cut and paste both the part before the transition and the part after it to get things to work right.

Transitions no longer works in 4.0.1

After updating PP 4.0.0 to 4.0.1 my transitions between still images is no longer working.
Is there a solution for this issue?

Eddie
I have installed PP CS4 on 2 different computers and both is updated to 4.0.1 a few days ago.
Unfortunately I now - after updating from 4.0.0 to 4.0.1 - have exact the same problem on both machines, which have different CPU's and Video cards.
Transitions between to movie clips works fine.
Transitions between a still image and a movie clip works also fine.
But transitions between 2 still images don't work any longer.
I can preview or scrub over the transitions and they dissolve fine.
But when I render and playback, the transition is there but it's "not transitioning".
Image 1 have a hard cut into the next image as when no transition is used.
I have no third-party plug-ins.
I have only video edditing software (PP, Encore and PS Elements 7) on both machines. Nothing else.
Only one monitor on each Pc.
Machine 1:
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit - SP1 - Danish
Processor: AMD Phenon(tm) 9500 Quad-Core 2.20 Ghz
3 Gb RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT (Driver version 7.15.11.7490)
Realtek High Definition Audio (Driver version 6.0.1.5591)
Machine 2:
Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit - SP1 - Danish
Processor: AMD Phenon(tm) 8450 Triple-Core 2.10 Ghz
3 Gb RAM
ATI Radeon HD 3400
Realtek High Definition Audio (Driver version 6.0.1.5636)
I have recently found this contribution from Rob which I think have the same problem after updating.
The description is identical to what I could inform you about.

Hyperlinks don't work in frames where you have videos, and....

Did you notice that if you put a hyperlink in a frame where you already have a video, after you export in quicktime your presentation, the hyperlink won't work no more?
And did u notice that if you use an hyperlink to a frame that is not the follower one, this will blast off any transition?
And did you notice this happens in Keynote 08 AND Keynote 09?
AND AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT NOTICED THIS AND IS SICK TO PAY FOR A SOFTWARE THAT "just DON'T work" ??

How bout adding the URL after the vid? That works for me; remember a connection to a URL drops you out of Keynote & Sets up Safari, so you're completely out of the app & have to get back in through the dock. I'm uncertain what you mean about the transition blast; cold you give more detail?
In fairness, all apps fail to do something or other, and this does not mean they don't work. If you want to pay big bucks & fight with PP, fine, but I'll stick to the more versatile and easy-to-use KN.

Apply CSS style don't works, always checked

Hi
I'm using Dreamweaver CS6 on Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3
How can fix this problem? Can't apply the CSS style "Amarillo" on the selected text because is checked BEFORE to the action for apply it.
You can see the picture .error.jpg, the style Amarillo MUST NOT be checked and appears checked. If I change to another style and try again to amarillo then the style is not applied.
Want to convert "A VECES" to <span class="amarillo">"A VECES"</span> using fast GUI Dreamweaver's way and can't do it.
I trash the preferences and don't fix the problem.
Any idea?
Thanks.

Transitions don't hold

I make a transition and it runs smoothly from one clip to the next, But THEN, I edit something on that clip OR anoter clip, the transition dosen't work. It only goes from end to other end of the clip and stops!!! I have tried longer transitions, I have click on set
Any ideas on how make the transition hold?
And another thing is there a way to tone down the backlighting on a person?

Hi jasons - Of course I don't consider you an idiot! It's all not as simple and obvious as Apple would lead everyone to believe. I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun with the programme, especially once you get your head around its quirks and peculiarities - and a few bugs as well!

IMovie & iDVD from iLife 06 don't work with my computer

Hello all,
I have just installed iLife06, and I have problems with iMovie and iDvd
1. when opening a file from the old iMovie 05 it doesn't work. The transitions are messed up and the audio and video are out of phase. If I try to redo the transitions a big jump happens.
2. I imported a new movie from my camera and when I wanted to edit it (just as I used to with the 05 program) it does not work. Transitions and fades don't work either.
3. iDvd performs the same way with my old files. It doesn't read them properly and I can't use them anymore.
iWeb, iTunes, iPhoto work just fine.
The computer was reformated after having a new logic plate installed two weeks ago.
Does anyone know what I can do to use these programs just like I used to before I installed iLife 06??
Help appreciated.
iMac (iSight) 17 inch Mac OS X (10.4.4) 1.5 GB Apple RAM, iLife '06
iMac (iSight) 17 inch Mac OS X (10.4.4) 1.5 GB Apple RAM, iLife '06

I also just installed iLife '06 on my G5 and iMovie HD '06 does not work at all. I am not able to import photos of any format or any DV clips. All of the buttons appear to be frozen (themes, media, editing, etc.). I do get the error message when I start up that some features of iMovie HD will not work since my graphics card does not support quartz extreme. Perhaps that is the problem, but I thought the program should at least run on a G5. I have tried several of the maintenance activities (repairing permissions, dumping logfiles, etc.) suggested on a previous posting, but with no success. I have used iMovie 4 for years with no problems. Is there anything left to do but try to reinstall iMovie 4?

Transitions don't work!
