Venetian blinds

Has anyone got the script for making venetian blinds?
Is there a tutorial for this?

Mmmh, certainly some BorisFX plugin or something like that exists, but should be simple enough to put together using a linear wipe before the blinds and rigged with a expression control for the edge of the linear wipe. Also do not forget Card Wipe/ Card Dance that would allow something similar just by defining a custom map...

  • Control venetian blind using DC motor

    hello everyone..im from malaysia
    im want to know how to create VI which i could control DC motor..
    the DC motor will control the venetian blind according to lux density..it will open angle by angle syncronize with the lux density and time 
    for example..on normal weather(malaysia, without rainy)on the morning the blind will open 45* (*=degree)..on noon the blind will open approx less then 45* since heat penetriate from the sun..while on evening the blind should open max to get full illuminations..
    could anyone help me on what function should be used or maybe some basic and moderate example of yours?

    Hi,
    Please do not create duplicate post (http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=240&message.id=8183).
    You provided information on your project and what to be achieve in your project but you did not mention what hardware you are using. Eg, which DAQ card you are using, what software (ie. LabVIEW or others), etc.
    Split your project objectives into smaller projects, like 1 for controlling DC motor, 1 for reading lux density. Make sure all these can be done individually before you merge them together into a single project.
    What functions to use will depend on what software and hardware you are using.

  • An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted.

    Whenever I try to render something in After Effects CC 13.1.1, an error message pops up, saying "After Effects error: Rendering error while writing to file '[not going to disclose]' An output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted (-1610153464)."

    Screenshot of a new project other than this I am rendering at the time of writing this edit:

    Can other projects can output to the same output location? Yes
    Can other projects render with the same render settings (codec, format, etc.)? Yes.
    If you create a new composition and just add a solid layer to it with no effects in the same project does it render? No. I still get the error.
    Can you render that brand new comp with the same render settings, output settings, output location etc.? Yes.
    If so, what effects are present in the offending comp? Twixtor Pro in all the cinematics/clips, Motion Tile and Transform for pan/crop & wiggle, Magic Bullet Looks and Bad TV Warping preset with just Wave Warp & Venetian Blinds for color correction, Gradient Ramp for text, Bad TV Warping preset with everything for effect, Transform for fade in/out, and ReelSmart Motion Blur v4.1.2 for motion blur.
    Also, what scripts are you using? Just the Move Anchor Point script I found from one of Mt. Mograph's videos, Summit 16 - 2.5D Minecraft Steve - After Effects - YouTube.
    Have you ever installed any third-party codec packs? (I've heard of some codec packs causing weird issues like this.) Yes, (not everything I have, just everything I can think of and find) I have K-Lite codec pack, Fraps, x264vfw, and Xvid MPEG-4 codec.

  • HELP !  Two SATA drives in an external enclosure RAID ZERO.  Need data recovery.

    What a nightmare !     My neighbor died from esophageal cancer and the funeral is in one week.  He left behind a G5 2.5 DP tower with a dead motherboard, and he put the two 640 GB SATA drives in an Other World Computing external enclosure Mercury Elite Pro Dual) weeks before  he expired.  He got access to these drives in this enclosure.  (External RAIDs are a no-no).
    His grieving wife wants pictures extracted from the drives.  There is no known back up and the G5 tower cannot be found.
    When connecting the external enclosure by FW800 or USB3, the need to format flag pops up.  Disk Utility shows one 1400 GB drive "unformatted".    The DIP switches on the enclosure are set to RAID 0.   Several data recovery programs find files, but of course any jpg over 50kb looks like venetian blinds,  Tried Data Rescue 3, and the drive depicted as 1280 GB does not divide using expert features and the command key, thus a RAID SET for emulation cannot be formed.  See here: See here: http://www.prosofteng.com/blog/recovering-data-from-a-apple-raid-using-data-resc ue-3-by-prosoft-engineering-2/ 
    What to do now to recover jpg's intact and ASAP ?
    1.  Try another enclosure ?
    2.  Insert these drives into my personal G5 tower ?
    3.  Try different data recovery software ?
    4.  Which software other than Data Rescue will recover from two drives in one external enclosure believed to be RAID ZERO ?
    Thank you.

    Yes, if and when the tower can be located and retrieved.   In one communication it was described as a G4, in another, a G5.
    Turns out that a single external drive was found, so suspect that is the boot drive.  In the mean time, am doing an emulated recovery (two sets) using two converter boxes to isolate the two SATA drives, assuming RAID 0 and 32kb striped,   The two sets and because the drive order is unknown.   The first recovery is almost completed.
    BTW, OWC rep stated that the two drives cannot be read in their dual SATA enclosure.  The rep stated that the drives would have to be reformatted while in thier enclosure, then use.  Tried two enclosures to see if they would read the drives independently, and one brand had a silly interface.   One has to put in two "dummy drives" (or ones in which the data is not important) and then convert the electronics (reset switch + power button) to RAID 0.

  • Will the new 3GHz iMac (24") with GeForce 8800 be good for Aperture v2?

    hi all.
    I've just seen the specs on the new iMac and I'm interested. I was resigned to buying a Mac Pro but found it difficult to justify the cost because I'm not a professional photographer. the new iMac might be good enough at a much more justifiable cost.
    I wonder if anyone has information or opinions regarding the following.
    Will the glossy screen be a nuisance? There is stray light in our living room where I use my computer although we do have venetian blinds on both windows. (don't bother suggesting using the computer in another room. this is Hong Kong where space is scarce and expensive.)
    Will 3GHz/4GB be significantly faster than my 2GHz/2GB iMac for Aperture operations? (Aperture was not included in Apple's test comparisons)
    Will the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS card be beneficial to Aperture use?
    Will the FireWire 800 be significantly faster than the FireWire 400? on my iMac, transfers to/from my external SATA disks run at only a dismal 13MB/s rather than the ideal 40MB/s. is it my iMac's limited processor power, or a limiting factor with having only 2GB of RAM and a scad of applications open, or a problem (concerning caching) with Leopard's copying routines?
    for future reference, would the Aperture library saved on the internal SATA drive be faster than if it was saved on the external SATA drive connected via FireWire 800?
    your input and information would be appreciated (and it's probably going to be a common question).
    sincerely,
    Gregory

    My expectation (every workspace is different as are individual perceptions) is that the reflective issues of the iMac's glossy screen would be very tolerable. What many (not all) graphics pros including me find intolerable is the fact that glossy displays add contrast and saturation to images. However many, perhaps most, non-graphics-pros prefer the added contrast and saturation, which is why Apple uses those displays. Each individual must do his/her own side-by-side comparisons and determine personal preference.
    Will 3GHz/4GB be significantly faster than my 2GHz/2GB iMac for Aperture operations?
    Yes.
    Will the NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GS card be beneficial to Aperture use?
    I believe yes, but that is just a guess since I do not know the card well. Certainly picking an iMac for Aperture usage I would choose the top 24" with the 8800 GS card
    Will the FireWire 800 be significantly faster than the FireWire 400?
    Yes.
    ...for future reference, would the Aperture library saved on the internal SATA drive be faster than if it was saved on the external SATA drive connected via FireWire 800?
    Yes. Best IMO will be to have the AP Library on the internal drive but with Referenced Masters on external FW800 drives. The top iMac allows up to 1 TB internal drive size. Since drives slow as they fill, order a large drive and keep it less than half full to optimize operation.
    ...is it my iMac's limited processor power, or a limiting factor with having only 2GB of RAM and a scad of applications open, or a problem (concerning caching) with Leopard's copying routines?
    Pretty much everything impacts AP performance, so the more things you optimize the better. The maximum 4 GB RAM of iMacs, although quite workable, will always be limiting. Good policy is to restart or at least close as many irrelevant applications as necessary prior to an extended Aperture work session.
    Steve Weller, builder of the excellent <http://www.bagelturf.com/index.html> Aperture website, discusses speed improvements here:
    <http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1273934&tstart=75>
    If you ever do run into performance issues, work to dial in on each of the performance tweaks he discusses.
    As an aside, I too like the MBP (ideally 17" matte screen) as preferable to the iMac because of the portability. Unfortunately cost may make that an unacceptable choice, but I cannot overstate the huge benefits of portability.
    Good luck!

  • Web Page transitions are not smooth

    I just published my new website on web.mac.com/cherisykes and notice that the changes from page to page are not very smooth or prompt. Is there anything that can be done?

    The main reason is your choice of the "Darkroom" theme. It uses an image to create the textured background and this increases the download time and is responsible for the "venetian blind" effect as the page loads in the browser.

  • Settings for Video Podcast?

    I don't have a video iPod, but a friend told me that my video didn't sync with her new iPod Nano via iTunes. Trying to figure out if there's something wrong with the encoding.
    I read in the new video capable iPod specs...
    H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    In iMovie HS '06, I have the following settings... (Share ->iPod isn't high enough quality for what I need).
    Export - > Quicktime > Expert Settings > Options >
    Video Settings...
    H.264
    Frame rate 29.97
    Key Frames Auto
    check frame reordering
    Data Rate - Restrict to 1536 kb/s (equal to 1.5 mb/s)
    Compressor - High & Multi-Pass
    Filter... no changes
    Size...
    Custom - 640 x 320 **
    ** (Video is 16 x 9, should I be going with 640 x 480 and preserve with letterboxing? Some iTunes videos are not letterboxed, though).
    Check - Deinterlace Source Video (to get rid of that venetian blind effect).
    Sounds...
    AAC, Best, limit to 128 kb/s
    Anything I'm doing wrong here to get a good video podcast that will sync with an iPod?
    Thanks,
    Tom.

    Yeah, good idea. Thanks for the reply I didn't think of Garage Band as supporting video, though. I'll check it out.
    What I did do in the meantime is try iMovie '08. I was shying away from it since it didn't have as many features as iMovie HD. But it does add some nice features... including exporting to iTunes in one shot. And sure enough, a video pops up in iTunes encoded exactly like the music videos I got from the iTunes store. So, there's no reason it shouldn't work perfectly.
    The only difference is the m4v extension vs. the mov extension. I don't think that matters since both are compatible with the iPod and QuickTime.
    It looks like I had a lot of the settings, if not all correct. However, I think the short answer is use iMovie 08, export to iTunes.

  • Encoding HDV material

    Is everyone writing their edited HDV movies back to tape?
    I have been playing HDTV movies from computers for the last 10 years.
    I can play my MPEG2 TS encoded 720p or 1080i movies smoothly on my 17" 1.3 GHz Powerbook using the VideoLan (VLC) app and they look great on the laptop screen or externally using a projector.
    You can also use other codecs like H.264 which may play HDTV smoothly on a dual core MacBook.
    Are any other forum participants doing this?
    I want to play back my FCP HDV movies on my PowerBook as well.
    With 1080i HDV movies (SONY HDR FX1) I have an interlace or "Venetian Blind" effect.
    Has anyone else seen this??? If so, do you know what to do to fix it?

    Dear Jerry:
    Thanks so much for your reply.
    The frustrating part is that Apple has solves the problem for display from the time-line of FCP.
    I have also seen the problem solved with professional deinterlacing software used by NASA when they ingested some professional CBS HDTV 1080i of the 2002 winter Olympics tape for me.

  • External iSight camera (FireWire) acting flakey with Skype

    My once reliable & rock-solid Apple iSight camera just started acting strange, sometimes it will provide picture perfect video and now suddenly when using Skype the picture has a venetian-blind effect with the video inverted upside down (interlacing on steroids). I am using the latest, greatest version of Skype, funny thing is when I go into the Prefs and check video the picture is perfect like in iChat, but when I connect with my parents their video comes through perfect but mine is scrambled. The camera maybe gets a maximum of 25 hours per year of use, but is now about 7 years old. Checked FW connections and rebooted, PRAM reset, etc. Any suggestions? Time to get a cheap USB webcam? Want to use iChat but no good for our connection (broadband) and Tiger/Leopard OS problems.

    Hi,
    I use a Advent 1.3Mp Int camera that I bought form the UK version of PC World
    The Int bit stands for Interchangable fronts. It has a Mic as well.
    It has a fold out bit to hook on to the top of laptops (it's not deep enough for a current iMac).
    The cable fits into the base which makes it difficult to use as a free standing item.
    The X-box 360 Camera works as it is UVC compliant as well but has no Mic.
    With some older Macs that have USB 2.0 (Needed for UVC compliant cameras) on the computer/tower do not have USB 2.0 ports on the keyboard.
    I have a USB 2.0 card added to my G4 tower.
    Others http://www.mac-compatible-web-cam.com/
    Generally speaking most USB cameras will be USB 2.0
    In most cases but not all these will be UVC compliant (USB Video Class)
    Vista in Windows onwards and Mac OS 10.4.9 onwards have UVC drivers so a "PC" camera does not need Mac Drivers.
    The ones that are USB 2.0 only will need Drivers and these then get difficult to find (there were third party options for USB 1.1 cameras and you needed and Add on Utility for iChat)
    Pay attention to the pixel descriptions.
    Mine is 1.3 Megapixels (1280 X 960 pixels)
    USB cameras seem to be mentioning 5Mp at present.
    However iChat can only use 0.3 (640 X 480 pixels) max as can Photo Booth.
    having said that Quicktime Pro (for your 10.5.8) and imovie could use the higher pixel format if you were going to do more with it with those apps.
    Summary
    UVC compliant is an absolute for a Mac nowadays.
    This will need you to have a USB 2.0 port on the computer rather than the keyboard with slightly older Macs (Some Intels are included in this).
    Any Camera that is marked "Vista Certified" or UVC compliant may not have the same features on a Mac that they advertise for a PC.
    There is a wide variety out there with different pixel rates and you need to pick one to suit where you will use it most.
    iChat and Photo Booth will use the pic at a sample rate of 640 X 480 (0.3Mp) (Not sure about Comic Book if it was Bundled with your Mac although it will see the camera).
    Other apps mentioned above will see the full spec of the camera.
    Hope this helps.

  • Poor quality on multiple level video export. What am I doing wrong?

    I'm having a problem with exporting a video I've been working on with FCPX.
    The output file looks like it's being screened on a venetian blind with very small slats - ie the image appears to be made up a lots of narrow horizontal panels. I also get a kind of striated effect around all the edges (which I managed to eliminate in my latest attempt - see below)
    The video looks fine in FCPX - it's only when I export Media that I'm seeing this problem.
    The sections that I'm having this issue with consist of a background texture generator in the Timeline, and two layers of video clips above that. The video clips are resized and positioned top left and bottom right of the screen (overlapping in the centre), so that you can see two separate video clips playing over a background. At different points one or other of the clips expands to fill the whole screen.
    The clips are variously original clips, compound clips, and a compound clip with slo-mo video in it.
    (The reason for doing this is that it's 2 cameras following 2 separate, but simultaneous, processions. Sometimes I cut between them, but I also want to see both processions at the same time during the piece).
    I've tried exporting using standard settings, Apple ProRes 244, and h.264, and I've gotten the best result so far by exporting to Compressor and using MPEG2 for DVD settings, with De-interleave turned on and giving it two passes. That got rid of the striations, but i still get the panel effect.
    If I export a different section of the video, that only uses 2 layers of video (without the background generator, and with one layer of video in the Timeline), then the resulting export looks ok even with a standard settings Export Media, so I'm assuming that it's something to do with the attempt to give the images a background. This also may not be the best way to go about this, so I'm open to suggestions about _how I should do it!
    If more info about how I've set up opacity etc is needed, let me know.
    thanks for any help

    Editing on a Mac Mini with 8mb ram (FCPX runs faster than on my MBPro!); FCPX1.1

    I'll just add that I reimported my footage, using the Optimise media settings, and exported a short clip using Export media (ProRes 244) & Compressor (ProRess244 + DeInterleave filter). Neither showed the "venetian blinds" effect, but the first export had loads of fringing, and the second had a lot less, but there was still some visible.
    Anyone? Is this a bug or some kind of operator error?
    thanks

  • Sony DCR-SR85 looks grainy in premiere elements 7

    I have been using a Sony DCR-SR85 video camera with a 60 gb hard drive. I noticed latey that when I'm recording my wife's horse in the arena the video looks a little grainy when I down load it into Premier Elements 7. I say grainy but that may not be the right word. The corrals have horizontal pipes and the pixels with the pipes almost make a wave in the background. The horse looks fine in the video, I'm shooting in standard mode but thinking of going to high quality mode to see if this helps. I render work area in the timeline after I download the video to Pre 7. It still looks a little wierd whenever you get around anything with close multiple horizontal lines. (like a corral)
    Gib

    Your camcorder is what's called a "hybrid" and can shoot in a variety of standard definition modes and quality levels. It's hard to advise you without knowing some specifics.
    What mode are you shooting in? If you're going to edit your video in Premiere Elements, you will need to shoot in HQ mode.
    When you set up your Premiere Elements project, which project settings did you use? You must use the Hard Disk/Flash Memory Camcorder/Standard Definition project preset for this type of camcorder.
    How did you get the video from your camcorder to your computer? In version 7, you should be attaching the camcorder to your comptuer via USB and then using Premiere Elements Media Downloader (under the Organize tab, go to Get Media/From AVCHD or Other Hard Disk Camcorder) to import the video into your project.
    Although, by nature, your computer will emphasize your camcorder's interlacing (which appear as horizontal lines) and these will not be issues when you play your video on your TV, there are certainly video issues that are unavoidable. As all videographers know, you should never shoot video of a person wearing a pin-striped shirt or a person standing in front of venetian blinds. Narrow lines produce a distortion called a moire -- and, if this is what you're seeing, there's not a lot that can be done about that except avoid shooting it, unfortunately.

  • Web page transitions are rocky

    I have just published my new iWeb website on to .mac (at web.mac.com/cherisykes). I am noticing that the page transitions, going from page to page, are not smooth. I have to wait, so white space, etc. Can I correct this? Eventually, when construction is complete, I am going to forward this website to my GoDaddy domain name.

    The main reason is your choice of the "Darkroom" theme. It uses an image to create the textured background and this increases the download time and is responsible for the "venetian blind" effect as the page loads in the browser.

  • Lines in Photos in Slideshow

    My pictures look fine in editing and display modes, but when I play a slide show, horizontal lines appear on the right and left sides of many of my pictures. They look like venetian blinds, in the same colors as the photo.

    TD,
    Thanks so much for responding. I have an iMac with OSX 10.5.8 software. Can you tell me what a graphics card is, and what I can do about it?

  • Working with 30p video (recorded at 60i) as native 30p

    I'm about to buy a Panasonic HMC150 which can record in 30p, but it saves AVCHD files as 60i. When I bring this footage into Final Cut I will want to work in 30p mode so that any new elements added (such as titles) won't get the ugly interlaced venetian blind treatment when viewed on a computer.
    The thing I'm not clear about is whether Final Cut is going to let me convert that 60i AVCHD file back to the 30p that it was actually recorded at, or if Final Cut is going to assume it's "real" 60i footage and try to de-interlace it down to 30p.
    I realize that it would be perfectly safe for me to work with that footage as 60i because the fields each come from single 30p frames, so I won't get any bad venetian blind effect. That's not what worries me. What worries me is that if I'm working in 60i mode in Final Cut, if I create animated titles or other new effects, those effects will be field-interlaced and appear whacked when viewed on a computer screen.
    Since my footage was shot 30p, I'd like to work with it in 30p, but I'm just not sure that Final Cut is going to let me do that. Any know?
    Thanks,
    -Brian

    Hmm... I'm confused. In this case you and I know that the 60i footage is the same as 30p, but how would FCP know that? How could FCP know that it's not "real" 60i where the even/odd lines are offset, this every frame would need to be deinterlaced upon conversion to 30p?

    Premiere Pro Debug Event
    Premiere Pro has encountered an error.
    [..\..\Src\CutlistRenderer.cpp-717]
    Error in Events panel:
    An input contract violation has occurred!
    I first started to get this error, while working with various media files in 1440x1080/HDV 1080i mode (Sony Z7U native)/29.97fps/1.33 sequence. Trying to understand what it goes wrong, I created a new project and recreated the adjustment layers (AL) with same effects applied - the only thing changed was the JPG added as media under both ALs. Same debug errors every time the blending is changed from normal to any other blending mode. With normal blending on the AL above, everything is fine.
    After further testing, it looks like even with only one AL (no effects) above the JPG, get the same debug error when blending is changed from normal to any other mode.
    Important note: Same layer+effect configuration applied in 1920x1080/ARRI Cinema mode/24fps/1.0 sequence - it works with no debug error. Haven't tried any other editing modes yet.
    Layers, in order from top:
    - AL (Venetian Blinds, Tint, Offset, Turbulent Displace - Color Dodge blending)
    - AL (Venetian Blinds, Tint, Offset, Turbulent Displace - Normal blending)
    - AL (Timecode effect)
    - Title
    - media, MPEG (1440x1080, 29.97 frame rate, 1.3333 pixel aspect ratio)
    - After Effects composition (dynamic link) 1920x1080 - content: media file, MPEG (640x480, 30fps, 1.0 + various titles and effects, including color dodge blending
    I googled for similar error reports, there are none related to Premiere Pro.
    I don't know what else to do, rather than just avoid using this effect configuration.
    Does anyone else had this issue, even in different situations?
    Thank you very much for any feedback.
    Best,

    I've never seen that error myself.  If you have a way to avoid it, might be best to just do that.
