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.

Want to add Video and Graphic Card to my computer system
I Notice that one of the users' in the Apple discussion Board is Listed, (AndyO) he has help me many times in the Past and was succesful in my problrm solution, would he might be able to help me with this?
I had Purchased the Game Spore Creature Creator the Starter Kit which is just the Creature creator game and not the actual game itself. I wasn't able to install the the game on my computer because I don't have the right or not at all Video and Graphic Card install on my computer. I had Contacted the Company "EA" that puts out the Game Spore, this is what they said what the game requirements are: The minimum system requirements for Spore and Spore the Galactic Edition for Mac are as follows:
* Mac OS X 10.5.3 Leopard or higher
* Intel Core Duo Processor
* 1024 MB RAM
* At least 345 MB of hard drive space for installation, plus additional space for created creatures. (260 MB for the Trial Edition)
* Video Card - ATI X1600 or NVidia 7300 GT with 128 MB of Video RAM, or Intel Integrated GMA X3100
This game will not run on PowerPC (G3/G4/G5) based Mac systems (PowerMac).
For computers using built-in graphics chipsets, the game requires at least: an Intel Integrated Chipset GMA X3100 or Dual 2.0GHz CPUs, or 1.7GHz Core 2 Duo, or equivalent
Supported Video Cards
ATI Radeon(TM) series
* X1600, X1900, HD 2400, HD 2600
NVIDIA GeForce series
* 7300, 7600, 8600, 8800
Intel(R) Extreme Graphics
* GMA X3100
and that I need to upgrade my system. Basically I need; ATI Radeon 1600 or NVIDIA Geforce 7300 and a INTEL Extreme Graphic Video Card-GMA X3100, in order to be able to install and play this game. Since I already have this game, I would like to be able to upgrade my computer system which brings me to ask; does somone know or refer me to a web site that has and sells these Video and Graphic Card and supports for the Mini Mac?
Plus they say that I need a 1020 of MB of Ram, I Have already found that 1024 MB of Ram but I just need those Video and Graphic Cards for my computer system. I am adding my computer system Profile to my discussion board to show you what I have on my system, would you be able to tell me if I would be able to add these Video and Graphic card and the memory or Ram 1024 to my computer system?
Note: Here is a web site that I am looking at to add the 1024 MB of Ram to my computer system:
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=24188 41&CatId=2453
what do you think?

Can someone Please help me with any suggestions or otherwisde I will have to go to a Apple store and ask for help there.
Thank You,

<Edited by Moderator>Hi Trisha,
The only modern Mac's with video cards are the Mac Pro and Xserve (server) systems. They both are priced quite a bit higher than any Mac Mini.
Some systems, like the Mac Book Pro laptop can be ordered with different graphics cards, but that has be done when the system is built, as it is not replaceable once the system is built. To find out which systems, go to store.apple.com. For each system that you select, you can see if there's an option for a better video card.

Videos and graphics noise and distortion
hi guys i have a hp pavilion p6000, and every time i watch a you tube video or even just a video online sometime my graphics and sound go all funny and it freezes and the it makes a weired sound, i just tried to update everything on the system and it still making this weird sound when watching videos and the graphics goes funny as well but only in the video not the whole monitor, it is becomming very anoying, and i even done a windows 7 fresh install as well off the disc, any ideas guys, o plus i went into devices and manager and updated everything in there as well.
Select the clip. Click the small gear icon to open the inspector. Go to the Audio tab of the inspector. Set the volume slider to zero.
If you have a bunch of these to do, do the first clip. With it still selected, EDIT/COPY.
Now, EDIT/SELECT ALL, EDIT/PASTE ADJUSTMENTS/AUDIO ADJUSTMENTS. This will mute the audio track from all the clips. -
Newer MBA or Older MBP for light - moderate music, video, and graphic editing
Essentially I would be using it for the following:
Word Processing (ms office suite)
Video editing (primarily YT videos) via FCP X
Music editing / production via Garageband, Logic Pro, and Melodyne
Adobe Photoshop CS6 (nothing to heavy like I said willing to live without retina)
Probably light gaming
Coding ( I don't think this should be an issue, but want the ability to write apps for iOS)
Web surfing obviously
Building itunes library
It seems like a bit now that I look at it, but I don't think I would have more than two of these programs running at the same time (my guess is the worst would be fcpx, garageband, and cs6 all open at the same time). I have a 500GB western digital external HD that is practically empty minus a recent backup of all my files on my current computer.
Which do you think would fit my needs more? Portability is a factor for me but I think the mba is like 1/2 a pound lighter or something which I'm not sure makes a huge difference to me since I'm currently lugging around a 15" pc that is around 7-8lbs.
So I've kind of figured that 256 gb ssd is probably going to be the most I can afford with a budget of $1190 and under ( could I get away with 128gb with my 500gb external hd?).
I know I can get the ssd and ram (at least 8GB unless 4GB would suffice) I need with a MBA but I do not know if the processor will be good enough for everything i'm planning to do. I've seen older MBP (circa 2011-2012) that has adequate ram (8-16gb) minus a ssd but regular hd with 500-700gb in some cases 1 TB. I've seen these for less than 1000 on ebay.
So which is a better choice? I don't want a system that is too old. I currently have a working cd/dvdr drive on my pc so I could live without having a cd/dvd drive in my mac or superdrive or whatever.
I'm interested in brand new or refurbished (either by apple or seller). Nothing used. An SD slot would also be nice to have but I'm unsure as to which models have them.From what I see on Twitter and blogs, a lot of photography pros are picking up the new MacBook Airs as their road machines because with the new Core iX processors they are quite acceptable for performance. I've mostly read about them using Lightroom, though, and not as a primary machine, so you should take some of your raw photos to an Apple store and run some Aperture tests to see how it feels. Do you think there is enough room to see everything, or does it feel cramped?
The main problem with the MacBook Air is not being able to put more than 4GB RAM in it, but with the SSD you might not notice the lag as much. For most people the Air is a fantastic computer. I use the 15" MacBook Pro, because I use other graphics apps where I need room to display documents, filmstrips, palettes, etc. so I need mor pixels, and also because I need to be able to have more RAM.
I would guess that GarageBand wouldn't be a problem on any new Mac, assuming you're not piling on heaps of effects. -
MSI 5600 wavy video and lockups
I have been reading on the boards, but have yet to come across a problem quite like mine. Let me give a quick rundown:
A few months ago, out of the blue, my older Geforce 1 card started having some problems. Lockups were frequent, and oddly enough I was getting what I can only describe as "wavy video" and graphics glitches (Pretty much it looks like the horzontal hold goes crazy while jumbling the picture up and adding white and black lines). At first, I only got these problems when running 3d games, but a few days later the Windows XP professional and CheckDisk screen started getting the same problems. Strangely, the windows desktop was fine, so if I just let it sit through the wavyness at the spash screen, the desktop would come up with no problem... At least till I tried to run a game of some sort.
I tried a different monitor and found the same problems. Then I tried another video card, a friends GeforceMX. This card ran perfectly. So I figured, okay, time to get a new card. I ordered the MSI 5600fx card and was very happy with it. It ran perfectly for about 3 weeks, when suddenly, it locked up on me. No big deal, I thought and rebooted.
Boy was I wrong. The wavyness is back in a big way, along with lockups, and somtimes on the first couple of reboots, no video at all. ;(
I plan to try some of the tips I found here on the board (APCI, IRQs, AGP down to 4x, ect..) but I was just wondering if anyone else had any guesses, had heard of this before, or could point me in the right direction.
I am at work now (Still waiting for my DSL at home), so I am not positive on all my PC stats, but I do know it is a Epox Motherboard, a 8K3A, I belive, and I do have a 400 watt power supply, though I am not sure of the brand name.
Thanks to anyone who tries to give me a hand!
Isn't there a sticker on the PSU ? SOmetimes you need to unscrew the 4 screws holding it to the case and look at the other 2 sides that are blocked.
You can also consider heat, try runninc the computer with the case open and a fan directed at it.
Are there any large speakers or voltage adapters around the monitor ? -
I designed an electronic press kit and I need the video to play on it. I'm getting the video link from YouTube so I was wondering how to make that happen. I already tried putting the YouTube link behind the video layer so it can be clickable in Acrobat, but when I sent it to the online magazine forum there was a lot of lines in it. I saw this YouTube video on how to do it but it requires ImageReady TUTORIAL-Add video to your Photoshop images and graphics! - YouTube. I don't have the Photoshop to ImageReady button in my PS....HELP! How do I get this done?!?!?
That tutorial is extremely old. ImageReady was last used in CS2. In other words that program no longer exists.
Luckily video made its way into photoshop so you can easily import your video into photoshop.
Instead of an animation panel, it is now called the timeline panel. When the panel first opens it will ask you if you want an animation or a movie. Choosing movie will reduce the number of layers required down to just 2, one for the movie and one for the TV image. Since this is a timeline, you can split the timeline to remove any portion of the video you do not want or need to add an effect to that area of the timeline. Each time you split the video, it will move it to a new layer for you.
You can still export as an animated gif by using the File>Save As dialog box. or You can export as a movie and choose another video format. Which format and codec you can choose will depend on how many other video apps of Adobe's you also have installed. -
Graphics layer over video Layer problem
Hello!
we are blu-ray applications developers and we have a problem with repainting graphics layer over video layer. In MHP this problem is solved using the method call repaint() to the HScene. This Method remove all graphics and paint again. But in Blu-ray is not work correctly. When you have a graphics over video, this graphics don´t disappear when you paint other graphics, because don´t refresh the HScene and all the containers get painted over the others.
what is the solution of this problem?
Thanks a lot for your help!
RegardsThanks for your reply.
As far as I know, targas can only be RGB. I couldn't find a way in Photoshop to work in YCbCr. I have Photoshop CS, so its pretty old, but even on my work computer, which has CS3, I didn't see anything. Next week I'll be installing CS4, so there might be something in that.
I won't be able to test anything until late tonight, but I'll try several formats to see if they make a difference. I'm wondering if there might also be some kind of option in FCE to convert imported graphics to the correct color space.
When keying graphics over video in your projects, how do you save them(formate,color space, etc)? Ever see this issue?
Thanks for your help

Does itunes support intel x3100 graphics for watch video and tv shows in itunes: not working
Hi I have a asus p5k-vm motherboard with intel 3100 onboad graphics accelerator. I had a gtx 570 video card install and was using itunes
to watch video and tv shows. I sold my gtx 570 and I am using intel x3100 onboard graphics accelerator as my video card. Everything works
fine until I try to watch video or tv shows in itunes. When it tries to start, the screen starts and then right awat it stop and shuts down becuse of some error. I don't know what the problem is.
Please help.Since updating to 5.0 numerous people have had an issue with optical out. . Try Restart your ATV & computer. Also cycle the power on the ATV and TV (unplug it for 30sec). You should also submit a bug report directly to Apple since they DO NOT read these forums

What Mac should i get for serious Audio recording, Video editing and Graphic's?
Hey im new to Macs and i want to upgrade to one. My question is what one?.. My current system is not powerfull enough to handle what i am doing and i want to upgrade. I plan on using the mac for serious music recording with protools or cubase, video editing and effects with adobe premiere pro and after effects and graphics and web type stuff the rest of the adobe collection.. ex photoshop, dreamweavor, flash, illistrator, etc. So pretty much i need it to handle the adobe cs5.5 master collection and a music recording daw without bogging down. I do serious music recording and video editing and effects that need power behind it and runs smoothly. Any tips, tricks, advise, etc would be greatly appreachated!. Btw im a college student and plan on getting the discount prices in the adobe collection and hopefully the mac and would like to get the best quality computer for the best price!
Thanks!Buying refurbs from Apple is a great idea - except for my current iMac, all my Macs have been refurbished. However, I would only get a factory refurb from Apple - they come with the same warranty as new units and you can buy Applecare to extend that to a total of 3 years. And, as far as I know, the Apple online store is the only place where you can get factory refurbs.

Videos and other graphics won't load
Videos and certain graphics won't load. I've cleared my cache, cleared cookies, and restarted in safe mode without addons. Nothing seems to work. It's a Firefox issue - things load in other browsers just fine.
Windows 7 ultimate, Firefox 6.0.1Did this just start recently? Since you are running Firefox 6, I don't think it's due to a change in Firefox, but it could be related to a Flash player update. There are some compatibility issues between the latest Flash player and some Firefox add-ons or settings. Could you see whether anything in this article helps: [[Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox]].

After Effects CS5 Ram, Codecs and Graphic card
hi im using AF CS5 with all latest updates. I have few questions
i have problem with codecs included in CS5. could please someone tell me why when i try to "render que" and i tried every possible codec included in AF cs5 the output is rubbish like hell. i been reading googling etc some on Adobe forums, some people say use 32bit instead 8bit, other say use this codec instead that one another say maybe maybe hmmm maybe .../.. let me think ahhh this codec isnt supported in AF cs5 yet it will be in next 2025 release.
could please someone tell me what codec should i use to make output look like standard video instead crappy sh**t?
ram preview work great no problems when i save on my desktop ram preview, it use auto AVI WRAW (1gb/min) and the video look great im satisfied.
when i checked add to render que codecs under avi, wraw isnt included so i cant use it but why the hell ram preview use this codec?
when i use quick time mpeg avi etc codecs included in cs5 the output look like i dont even know how to describe it look very bad. i tried also encode the shi**y output trough media encoder tried h264 etc tried to use other third party software to correct AF bad output and nothing helped and im tired.!!!!!
how can Adobe sale something crapp that doesnt work ?!!!
where is WRAW ?
what codec should i use to make my 2 min clip look good ?
another thing i got with AF thing called media encoder could please someone tell me why the hell i cant encode AVI movie in it ??? and then make out of it FLV or MPEG etc ?
the result after making out of avi flv or mpeag etc is that the sound disappear probably everyone in Adobe know it. could you please sort it out ?!!!!
why when i use free encoding software such as mediacoder etc no problem with AVI decoding encoding etc?
Another Question i have 4x ATI HD4850 installed so i would like to use it right ?? why? cuz everyone on earth know that normally graphic cards are designed for graphics.. not when you use Adobe products. Adobe preffer to make people buy 280gb of ram and 20 x Q9000 quad core.
why the f***K open GL After Effects doesnt work ???? just dont ask me what opengl ver do i have !!!! when i use open gl the rendering is slower with Gpu than than using the CPU whys that? why it isnt in MAYA ??? etc
people buy product people expect it to work right ?not install it then install all plugins you need, then try try and try to make AF work. AF remaind me Linux still use it sometimes, when you install ubuntu you need a bit of time to make your graphic card work sound etc many of your devices wont never work cuz they arent supported no drivers or buggy drivers. the thing about linux is that it is free.
Adobe cost money so people expect it to work i dont have time to wait or try to make it work for the next 5 years !!!!!If you're looking for help this is a great place to be. Just maybe dial back the "adobe sucks" rhetoric a bit. The folks here are extremely helpful but I think they're all volunteering their time so try to keep that in mind. Nothing wrong with complaining and/or suggesting improvements. Just try to respect the process and be patient. If you ask one or two specific questions (i know you did re: sound in .avi files) you'll get help faster.
wish I knew why OpenGL for rendering was still so bad. I was told long time ago "just don't use it for rendering" and I've followed that advice ever since. Maybe someday it'll be useful. Meanwhile it works great for everything else inside AE so I don't condemn the whole idea of OpenGL in Adobe products. Every CS release supports it more and more...they'll get there. For now just don't use it for rendering and you'll be fine.
At least you're using CS5 and can take advantage of all your RAM. just think, a few short years ago...
Sorry I can't help you with your missing audio in .avi. I generally render to QT or an img sequence and then layer my audio on top of that.
If you find an answer post back - I'm sure it will help someone else.
Good luck!

Hi,
I've made an app for android with images and stagevideo 720p on the background and a graphic layer over like some channels to announce the next program... On my Acer Iconia A500 under ICS the app run fine but on the TV with the hdmi cable when there's an image on the background it's ok but when it's a video, only the video is visible, all other objects are not displayed.
I know that all manufacturers do what they want with hdmi out, it's not a part of android but is there a way to display the same image on the TV and on the tablet? How an hdmi out can choose to display only a video ?
edit...
After some other tests, the stageVideo object seams to be in front of all the scene and not behind and never and stage.stageVideos[0].attachNetStream(null); has no effect... !
thanks if someone got some ideas.Apple says when both HDMI and component are connected, HDMI will take precedence over component. Short answer: no.

Processor and graphics card upgrade for hp dc5100 MT(EF633US)
Can someone kindly tell me a variety of Intel processors and graphic cards which i can install in my pc coz right now i'm using Intel pentium 4 CPU 2.80 GHz and Intel 82915G/GV/910GL express chipset. but i would like to upgrade to a faster processor and a graphics card which can play games which require large graphic memory (eg FIFA 2013,GTA 5.etc)
Hi:
Personally, I wouldn't invest the money to upgrade that PC.
You would be better off getting an off lease newer dc5800 MT or dc7800/dc7900 model that has a PCIe x16 video slot.
The killer for your model is you can only install a PCI graphics card.
Very inefficient and pretty expensive for what you get in return.
After you install the required microcode update, the best processor I know for sure you can install would be the P4 650.
Below is the link to the quickspecs. The supported processors are listed on page 7.
I do not know of anyone who that has installed the 651 or 661 processors and got them to work--even though the specs state they are supported.
You can try the 651 or 661 and if you do, please let me know if they worked for you.
