Unusual Time Warp issue in CS4 (4.1.0)

Two problems I am having:
1. When I add time warp to my clip or nested sequence, the preview clip suddenly appears to be scaled larger if the clip is sitting within a higher resolution sequence.  The transformation is not dissimilar to having the "scale to frame size" option checked.  The actual speed based time warp effect appears to work fine, so I can workaround this by simply applying this to the clip within a sequence that matches its resolution
2. Motion blur is not working at all...the default settings manual  shutter control (shutter angle: 180, samples 5, pixel motion enabled) produces no blurring.  I have processed this same file in After Effects CS4 and it works beautifully, but I wanted to try applying the effect directly to edited clips so that the blur effect does not span cuts as it does when I apply it to the entire file
Any ideas?

Purely a gues here, but 1 may be working as designed.
I have not used the Motion Blur effect yet.

  • Time Warp issue CS4

    I noticed that whenever applying the Time Warp effect to an MPEG clip, the clip goes black and becomes unusable. Tried this in old as well as new projects.
    However when applying Timewarp in AE, to the same clips, the effect is fine...
    Has anyone experienced this?

    I experienced same "black video" bug with time related plugins liks "Sapphire FreezeFrame"...I think this bug is a result of plugins way of getting frames form original video for processing.
    And here's a quick solution, till an update for Premiere Pro CS4 will be released:
    b Right Click on the clip (at the timeline) that you want to apply your time based effect. And choose "Nest" from opened Right Click Menu... So you will have a nested sequence with your clip. Now you can apply your time based effect (timewarp, twixtor, freeze frame e.t.c.) to this nested sequence.
    It works for me without any problem. I hope it will work for you too, tomst and DenisVID.

  • Adobe After Effects CC Time Warp Issues

    Anyone on here proficient in After Effects CC? I'm attempting to mess around with time warping to see if I can mimic the slow motion effects of a high frame rate camera, but the issue I'm running into is that when I slow down the footage at a certain point in the clip, it will slow down, but when it's back to real time speed the frames don't match up. And I haven't found a way to stretch out the length of the clip so the frames do match up. Any advice?

    You need to read up on time remapping. For example: you have a 30 second clip shot at 30 fps and you want to play a clip at normal speed for the first 10 seconds, then, and heres the hard part to wrap your head around, slow down the next 10 seconds to 1/4 speed to simulate shooting the clip at 120 fps, then play the last 10 seconds at normal speed. The hard part to wrap your head around when you do this is that the middle 10 seconds will now take 40 seconds to playback.
    Here's what you do:
    Enable time remapping
    Note that there are 2 keyframes, one at the first frame and one that is 1 frame past the end of the video (I won't explain why it is there but trust me it makes sense)
    Move your CTI to the 10 second mark and set a new keyframe by clicking the diamond in the Keys column in the timeline
    Move the CTI to the 20 second mark and set a new keyframe
    Extend the length of the composition to one minute and ten seconds (this is some of the hard part to wrap your head around)
    Move the CTI to the end of the extended composition and set a new out point for your video by pressing Alt/Option + ]
    Now move the CTI to the one minute mark (one minute because the middle 10 seconds is now 40 seconds long so the end of the slow mo section will move from 20 seconds to 1 minute
    Select the last two keyframes and drag them to the left until the keyframe originally set at 20 seconds snaps to the one minute mark and the last keyframe is one frame past the out point of the clip
    That's all there is to it. Your new modified video plays at normal speed for the first 10 seconds, 1/4 speed for the next 40 seconds, then resumes normal speed. You can check out the speed graph to verify the speed change and even modify the curves so the change in speed is smoothed out, but if you do that you should have decided before you moved the last two keyframes and set two additional keyframes at san 10:10 and 19:20 to give you a few frames to ramp up and ramp down your slow mo.
    The thought process is the same no matter what technique you use to change the speed in the middle of a clip. If you want to return to normal speed after the speed change you need to define the outpoint of the speed change and move the outpoint and the end point of the speed change down the timeline for slowing down a clip or up the timeline for speeding one up to return the clip to normal speed.
    Now all you are stuck with is how to make the slow motion segment look smooth because you are repeating four frames at a time. Twitter is probably the best tool for this but it is expensive. AE's frame blending does a fairly good job on most video. Some video will not successfully slow down more than 1/4 speed no matter what software you use. Some video will slow down to 1/10 speed just fine using nothing more than Time Remapping. It all depends on the shot.

  • Time Warp error with CS4

    Simply, everytime I add the Timewarp effect to my clip, it loses the last 3-4 seconds of footage.  It still registers just 11 seconds for the clip but the ending disappears, like it automatically got stretched.  Beyond that editing the clip appears fine.  I apply the slow-mo effect I want.  Its an unchanged movie file straight from my 60D.  Is there a conversion I should perform first?  Or is it just something stupid I missed?

    Agreed, was trying to get the basics of 1000fps slow-mo from 60fps with Time Warp down as I had planned to film some small sections of it soon. Going to try and find a all-around basic starting tutorial this weekend.
    That's not going to work very well. Think about it. You're asking software to analyze the movement of the pixels on a frame and create about 16 frames of smooth motion from every 2 frames of real motion. One second becomes about 16 seconds.
    If a thrown ball moves 200 pixels between two frames then you're asking software to divide that motion into 16 pieces, figure out which pixels are ball and which are background, redraw and reposition the ball accurately, replace the background, where the ball was, and do this without distortion that spoils the effect. It's not that it can't be done, it's just that you have to carefully plan, carefully photograph, and carefully tweak your footage to get it to work at that kind of a speed reduction.
    I'm not trying to throw water on your idea, just trying to give you some realistic expectations. Lots of action doesn't have to be slowed down that much to look very good.
    3rd party plug-ins like Re:Vision FX Twixtor do a better job, a significantly better job, but 1000 FPS video from 60 is very difficult, and depending on the motion, it can be impossible.

  • Cs4: Time warp effect - black playback problem

    I use premiere cs4. When i drag clip into time line (1440 25i mpeg transcoded from avchd 1080 50i) onto time line and apply time warp effect and after rendering clip is black during playback, simply nothing in it just black picture with the same duration as original footage.
    core2duo 2,0 2mb cache
    2 gb ram ddr
    nvidia geforce 8400m gs 128mb cuda drivers installed. ( do premiere cs4 use cuda drivers?)
    vista 32 bit
    what 's wrong? what to do?
    please

    Hi!
    No, the first frame is not black.. The screenshots where just examples and I tried to adjust the settings, because the first time I tried the timewarp it worked, but the next clip I wanted to warp just got black.. and I tried alot of times to figur out if I adjusted some of the settings..  ( I hope you mean the method and adjust time).
    Those comes adjusted in pixel motion and Speed and thats what I have them on now.. Should I adjust it to something else?

  • Multi-monitor issue with CS4?

    Hi; I'm running a Mac with the following specs:
    3 x 30" ACD
    MacPro 2,8 Ghz Quad
    2x ATI Radon 2600 XT graphics cards (2 screens attached to 1 card; 1 screen to the other card)
    I've encountered after the switch from CS3 to CS4 the following issue:
    Whenever I try to use the new Bridge Review function using one of the the screens sharing one graphics card I just get a grey screen.
    If I move the bridge window to the solely attached screen it works.
    Is that an issue of CS4 or is just the throughput of the second graCard providing 2 monitors not sufficient.
    Thanks t.

    T,
    There are known issues with using more than one graphics card which Apple has not truly resolved.  You may want to browse some of the threads in the Adobe Photoshop Macintosh forum.
    In addition, you should know that Photoshop and Bridge cannot really take advantage of more than one graphic card.

    This bit of information in relation to GPU and OpenGL features and
    limitations in Photoshop CS4 had totally escaped me until now. Though
    it doesn't affect my setup, it might be of interest to others who may
    have missed it too.
    Excerpt from

    Q. Does Photoshop take advantage of dual-GPU display cards?
    A. Not at this time.
    Q. Why can't Photoshop take advantage of more than one display card?
    A. When you move an image window between two monitors that are
    each on a separate display card, the GPU attached to the second monitor
    does not have access to the data necessary to accelerate drawing. The
    SLI and Crossfire technologies that use more than one GPU to speed up
    full-screen games will not work with Photoshop, because their use is
    limited by design to accelerate only full-screen games.

  • Same issues in CS4 as CS5

    So I have upgraded to CS5 hoping that the numerous issues I faced with CS4 would cease and go away. For a person in a position where Photoshop is the bulk of your daily use you might think that Adobe might have found the solutions for these irritating small issues that are easily found in repetition and can be repeated once you have them down.
    Here are my issues with CS4 and now with CS5:
    1. Every time Photoshop crashes my workspace resets as well as all of my brushes causing me to have to reset these on every crash.
    2. Palettes still don't hold there place with persistence set. (mainly Illustrator issues)
    3. Open documents as Tabs still resets every time you quit and then restart Photoshop (happens also in Illustrator)
    This might seems small to others, but I use Photoshop for a least 10 hours or more a day and these small irritating issues add up to a lot of time when you are working in a fast paced production environment as I am.
    Can someone at Adobe please look in to these issues????
    I have been experiencing these issues since CS3.
    You would think that programmers of such dynamic software platforms such as Adobe would catch this, but after it running my impression of CS4 and leaving a bitter taste in my mouth I thought a post might help.
    PS
    I am not a regular to these forums. I prefer to contact Adobe directly to discuss issues. I am just at wits end with these persistent issues.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Not once have I ever experienced any of those symptoms in CS3 and CS4, and I have been using them since the day each one of those versions was released—actually since the beta days.  I do not use CS5, but you say you've been seeing this since CS3.

  • I think I solved my time changing issues- hope this helps

    Hey everyone, I think I've had some success with my time changing issues. I originally posted this to another user as a follow up to her question, but I'm reposting it here. Hope it helps:
    "msteinny,
    So i went to the apple store to meet with an apple genius to ask him why my phone's time kept moving up 1 hour everytime I synced my phone. Well he said that he's never seen this problem before, and after a trying a reset and restore he let me exchange my phone. The problem is that when I went to sync my new phone the problem still persisted. They told me it was probably something to do with my computer and its time zone settings.
    So I get home and click on my computers clock in the bottom right hand corner to bring up the date and time properties and sure enought my time is correct, the date is correct and the time zone is correct (Eastern Daylight Time). So I look through the different tabs (Date & Time, Time Zone, Internet Time). The first thing I tried to do was to change where my computer syncs its internet time. It was originaly set on NIST time. I then switched it to Windows time, but this didn't do anything. My clock would still change when I synced to itunes. The next thing I tried was fideling around in the Time Zone tabs. I noticed that the box that says "Automatically adjust clock for daylight savings" was unchecked, so I checked it and my computer's time jumped an hour ahead. So I left the box checked but moved my clock one hour back (to the correct time), clicked on apply and left it at that. I synced my iPhone and voila! The time didn't change! It stayed on the correct time! To to make a long story short, make sure that you computer's clock is set on "automatically adjust clock for daylight savings changes, make sure your time zone is correct, and that the time is right when that box is checked. I hope this helps you. I'm glad I got a new phone out of the deal;)
    Chris P. "

    As I mentioned in my post, whenever I checked that box the time would be incorrect. It would move up an hour. I've messed with this along time ago, way before I got my iphone. I think this had something to do with the daylight savings change that was implemented this year or last year. I dont remember if I never tried correcting it before, or if I couldn't, but this time I didn't have any problems correcting it. Anyway, since I couldn't correct it back then, I just left the box uncheck and decided that I would change the time manually when the next time change occurs. But it seems to work fine now so all is well.

  • The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin, how can I eliminate this problem without dropping m. firefox?

    A few days ago I tried to e-mail a friend, when I started A box came up and it required me to add a plugin..Java. I contacted my e-mail courier and microsoft, they told me that is was a plugin from Mozilla Firefox. Since then I must go through Java to send or open an e-mail... this is NOT to my satisfaction, it takes too long for all of this to open and if it is not cleared , I am dropping Mozilla and going elsewhere. Why has this occurred? Is this a result of the last update? If so can I delete the last update and continue on the other version?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == last week

    Sorry, I have no idea what you mean by '''"The Java plugin has created a time unfriendly issue with my e-mail account, I can not open or send any e-mail without using this plugin,"'''.
    If you think your problem is caused by the Java plugin, you should visit the Java support forum for assistance.
    http://forum.java.sun.com/index.jspa
    If you could explain what you mean by '''"time unfriendly''' issue with my e-mail account", maybe we'll be able to help you solve that issue.
    It might be helpful for us if we knew exactly which web-mail provider you are using. It seems strange to me that viewing or sending web-mail would actually "need" Java for operation, its more likely that some other item on the web page needs Java to run some advertising or other garbage that isn't a necessary part of the web-mail functionality you want to use.

  • How many times can I reinstall CS4 if I inactivate it?

    Hello
    How many times can I reinstall CS4 if I inactivate it before I make a new installation on the same computer?
    Regards
    Mikael

    Mikael,
    Not really, because it made me go to slipstreamed installations that proved even better. It takes some time to make a slipstream, but in the end it proves even better IMO. When Win7 comes out, one of my first steps will be to make a slipstreamed version and post a guide here on how to make one tuned to your needs. This is a very old screenshot, way outdated, but it shows what a slipstream installation can do for you:
    Just insert the DVD and have some coffee. When you have finished your coffee and the PC has finished it's installation, you are ready to roll/edit. All tweaks will have been performed, logon scripts executed, etcetera.

  • FM - Budget check at the time of procurement and at the time of Issue

    Hi
    For a Material there is a budget for a procurement ( Check should happen at the time of procurement and a seperate budget for consumption ( Check should happen at the time of issue).How can I map this in FM- BCS.I am thinking of creating two commitmen items one for Procurement , to be derived thorugh matl grp at the time of PR / PO and  One commitment item for consumption to be derived through consumption GL . Does it work , any comments?
    Thanks in advance
    Chris

    Yes you are right , I have to make to sure stock budget doesn't get credited.
    If you remember in one of my other threads, i wanted to derive commitment item from Matl grp, it was for this purpose. I will derive commitment through matl group at the time of procurement / GR etc and assign a dummy commitment item to stock a/cs. Where as i will derive a consumption commiment item from consumption GLs.
    Thank you

  • Different G/L code at the time of issue  for projects .

    Dear all;
    here there is requirement :
    Say we are having three different WBS element .for a particular Material ,at the time of issue it should goes to different G/L Code.How to map this in SAP system .
    I have configured in OBYC setting as below :
    GBB
    Valueation Modifier  general Modifier     valueation Class   G/L account
    1101                        VBR                        3000(Raw Mat)    XYZ
    Kindly give me some solut

    Do you mean  that every time you issue for a particular WBS element it should post to a differnt G/L account.
    If thats you requirement then its not possible to post to a new G/L account every time when you are issuing a material.
    The G/L account is determined based on the movement type, and creating new movement type every time to post into a G/L account is not feasible solution.
    What you can do is post into a differnt cost object like a profit center or cost center to track down the costs by posting them at the time of Goods issue.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Has anyone seen this BUG with Time Warp and Dissolve?

    I'm doing some real basic slow-mo clips, transitioning with various dissolve wipes. I've come across a problem that is extreemly frustrating! I'm wondering if anyone has insight on a fix or if Adobe does service packs or fixes that I might be able to install.
    If you put two clips adjacent to each other on a timeline, apply time warp, set percentage to say 30% of realtime, then apply a dissolve between the clips, clip B, the outclip will play in reverse for a period equal to about 1/3 of the duration of the clip.
    This is true scrubbing through the timeline and even rendering.
    VERY ANNOYING!
    I'm going to call support tomorrow, but that's not going to help me get my project finished any sooner since this is a critical element in this composition. I've tried the time remapping method, but the frame-blend is no match for the pixel motion of time warp.

    Steve,
    I think your post #11 was being sarcastic, but you left a little wiggle room for it not to be. With the sarcastic interpretation, I must add my thoughts:
    Here is the link to the Adobe bug report form
    . It is important that users who discover bugs with reproducible steps file them - otherwise they don't stand a chance of ever getting fixed. Steven Gotz's advice was sound in this regard.
    As to the discussion of workarounds - since this is a User-to-User forum, the best that we as a community can do is help each other out with workarounds, since none of us here have the power to actually fix anything.
    The important thing to glean from SG's post is the definite need to file a bug report.
