Video changing its framerates at random.

Hi, I have a video that I'm trying to do a project with. However, the person that sent me the video is kinda noobish and I am unsure as to how it has been encoded and what not.
The file itself is in mpeg format and seems to have been captured from an older dv camera. The person who sent me this video said the filesize was 9gb which is too huge to be sent over the internet realistically (which sucks).

These are the details given to me by the multimedia reporter inside of super video encoder (my go to tool basically). When I put this video into adobe premiere pro cs3, and add it to the timeline, and then preview the video file, it is VERY shifty, there will be small amounts of time when the video will play normally, but then it seems it will slow down and then speed up sorta to catch up to where it was when it slowed down, and then repeat the process again and again.
I used one of the default templates for video. The video project details I have is normal widescreen dv @ 48khz audio (29.97 fps I believe). The video entails the use of four videos and a single audio track, and while the other videos seem to play with almost 0% problems, this video continues to irke my ire.
The odd thing is that when I play the file in media player classic, the video is as smooth as butter. So I'm guessing it must be something within premiere or some setting that I am unsure of how to modify. Any helpful ideas are more than welcome as I'm just a hapless noob myself when it comes to video editing.
Thanks!

I agree with both Ann and Jim.
The best solution would be for the client to go back a level in the process, and get you the DV-AVI Type II file, that was Captured from the miniDV tape - not a processed MPEG. Note: file size will be larger still, but if he/she uses a site like YouSendIt, you can basically download the file. It's like FTP, but without having to possess your own server. Works perfectly. There are also many similar services that get around the large file sizes.
Next, as Ann says, "convert to DV-AVI Type II." However, this means that the quality will already have suffered with the initial MPEG-2 compression. Super, or any other program, will not be able to put that quality back in. It is gone forever. Also, if you are going to output to DVD, or some other compressed format, you WILL induce another quality loss. The conversion to DV-AVI Type II is only so that PrPro can edit the footage most effectively. I would guess that your issues stem from using MPEG-2 files.
I do not use Super, but it does get good recs on many boards. I was under the impression (seems mistaken) that it was limited to output PAL footage. It seems that I am totaly incorrect in that thinking, as you are outputting NTSC 4:3, right?
Good luck,

Problem accessing child object and changing its appearance (color)

For a program, I need to be able to access a child object (in this case a box) after adding it to a transform group and change its appearance, for example the color of its top face. I have included a small code example to show my problem. The box is the only child I have added to the TransformGroup, but when I call getChild(), it returns a node, and thus I can't then call getShape() to get the top face and change its appearance. What am I doing wrong?
public BranchGroup createSceneGraph() {
     BranchGroup objRoot = new BranchGroup();
     Transform3D rotate = new Transform3D();
     Transform3D tempRotate = new Transform3D();
rotate.rotX(Math.PI/4.0d);
     tempRotate.rotY(Math.PI/4.0d);
rotate.mul(tempRotate);
     TransformGroup objRotate = new TransformGroup(rotate);
     objRoot.addChild(objRotate);
     Appearance ap = new Appearance();
     Appearance app = new Appearance();
     Appearance apr = new Appearance();
     ColoringAttributes colr = new ColoringAttributes();
     ColoringAttributes colg = new ColoringAttributes();
     colr.setColor((float)1, (float)0, (float)0);
     ap.setColoringAttributes(colr);
colg.setColor((float)0,(float)1, 0);
     apr.setColoringAttributes(colg);
     Box box = new Box((float)0.4, (float)0.4, (float)0.4, app);
     box.getShape(4).setAppearance(ap);
     objRotate.addChild(box);
     objRotate.getChild(0).getShape(4).setAppearance(ap);
objRoot.compile();
     return objRoot;
}

It would help if you gave us the following System information:
Operating System/version
Photoshop version number
Amount of RAM installed
Hard drive(s) capacity
Make and model number of video card
Also try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.

You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

How can I change the background of a running webpage on my own. Example Facebook I want to change its background color from white to black just in my view, not for all. Cause I really hate some site with white background because as I read for an hour it aches my eyes but not on those with darker background color.

How to check if a user has clicked on a digital control and changed its value?

Greetings !!!
I am looking for a simple way (without using Windows messages)of knowing if an user has clicked on a digital control and changed its value.
I have tried the key focus property; but I have to click twice to make it work.
If somebody knows a better solution; please let me know.
Thank you in advance for your help

If you just want to know if the value has changed you can put it in a while loop and use shift registers to see if the value has changed.

Get the active cell in a table on a mouse click, so I can change its color

Hi guys,
I am looking at a small application.
I have a table. When a user clicks on a particular cell, I need the cell coordinates so that I can change its attributes (e.g. color change) by clicking a button.
Edit position property of the table gives me the current cell coordinates, but when I click on a button, the previously clicked cell position is lost. How can I fix this problem?
Is there a way to solve this problem?
Thanks
Ravi

Thanks for the reply. But, Iam trying to avoid using event structures for someother reason in my code. Is there a way, this could be done without event structures.
Please look at the code attached. Whenever the value in the table goes beyond 100, i want to click on the corresponding cell and then suspend it by using the suspend button, in which case the backgroud color should change to red.
Thanks
Saverio's suggestion to use an event structure is a good one so rather than exploring less efficient methods, could you please explain why you are avoiding teh use of an event structure? This will help us help you.

I have a folder from today that won't let me change its name. I can change the other folders just fine. I do it routinely... any ideas what I screwed up?

I'm as a loss. I don't understand why today's folder "2014-06-06" won't let me add "_Kim" to the end. I do it will all my folders since I download from a couple of cameras.

sorry... in PS cc and I closed Photoshop, just in case.... it didn't make
any difference and it hasn't ever been an issue before.

I've found that middlemouse.contentLoadURL feature has changed its behavior in FF5.0 as compared with previous versions

I've found that middlemouse.contentLoadURL feature has changed its behavior in FF5.0 as compared with previous versions: I now can paste&load only full urls that start with "http://" prefix, but previously it was possible to paste&load any url even without protocol prefix. It is very useful when someone has an url for example just "support.mozilla.com", but with FF5.0 one _has_ to paste it to urlbar instead of just middle-clicking into the browser window (long standing and usual *nix behavior). How can I make middlemouse.contentLoadURL load any clipboard content not prefixed with protocol specification?

Oops, already found a solution: https://support.mozilla.com/ru/questions/824759
But, how could it be done via something less freaky (ala about:config)?

Start the program when an external limit switch change its position

i have a DAQ card 6036E and have a limit switch.
my problem is:
when certain contact of limit switch is open, certain loop is work, and when the contact change its status the first loop stop and a second loop starts.
for details
    limit switch contact open & i press start of the program
           loop one stars which is 10V analog output
                   the limit switch contact closed
                          loop one stops and loop two starts which is (digital out + 5V analog out)
thank you

Hello Nick F,
Thank you very much for your reply and i am so sorry for less details of my previous message so, here more discussion:
I control the position of a reobatic arm, at starting of the program the arm may be in any position so i must move the arm to a referance position by making a program to give analog 5V through analog output pin of the DAQ to the to the DC motor controller card to then to the motor which drive the arm, when the arm arrives to its referance position hitting a limit swich which will give a digital signal to digital input pin of the DAQ, here, my object is to stop the obove program (or loop) to stop the arm, at the same time i want to run another program or another while loop on the same program which is an LV example (control single channel.vi) (which is an PID controller program to move the arem to a desired position.
that's all
please reply me quickly
thank you

Server keeps changing its name?

Alright well this is a strange one, my server will run for about 3 or 4 days and change its name from server.local to server-2.local. The error message will say that there is another server.local on the network.
The services that I'm running are:
AFP, NetBoot, NFS and Software Update
I tried to read through the logs for those services and i wasn't able to find anything. Can I just write an applescript to automatically change the server's name periodically? Or is there something simple I'm missing
Here is a screen shot of the error:
http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/6925/picture5jb5.png

Hi Christopher,
I would suggest setting a DNS name for your server. You can search on these forms for examples of setting up DNS. (In fact, I've had problems with the software update service if the server didn't have DNS setup correctly.)
If you would like to stick with .local, try changing it's name to something completely different, like bob.local.

TS1347 Dear apple, The governments of Saudi Arabia has changed its weekend from THR&FRI to FRI&SAT, Therefore the start day of the week became SUN. unfortunately all Iphone user could not adjust this change on their I phones . So will you please facilita

Dear apple,
The governments of Saudi Arabia has changed its weekend from THR&FRI to FRI&SAT,
Therefore the start day of the week became SUN. unfortunately all Iphone user could not adjust this change on their I phones .
So will you please facilitate us on this matter.
Regards

Give apple feedback regarding this.
For a temporary fix, change your region? Get a 3rd party Calendar app that fits your needs?
I assume your current region is set in the photo?
If so, pick a region that has a start day of Sunday. (either historically or known for the present)
Note, with changing your region, it will change the default phone number prefix/country code for new contacts and addresses. (calling and SMS is not affected)

How control can be customized so that it changes its picture when mouse moves over it

How control can be customized so that it changes its picture when mouse moves over it. As it happens in other develpment enviroments that one can customized the look 'n feel of any thing during the mouse movement over that very thing. Moreover can any body plz tell me that how one can modify the funtionality of a control by him self (not selecting the available functionalities of controls and indicators)

The attached LV 7.1 code uses an event configured to trigger on two controls when a "Mouse Enter" or a Mouse Leave" event occurs. Depending on the type key focus is either assigned or removed.
Please elaborate on the Q re: customizing a control.
Ben
PS Do NOT change the boolean to an indicator, save, run, change to control, save run again. That is bad.

I need to change stage.frameRate, but how to keep tween speed?

Hello. I am using Flash CS6.
Right now I am trying to keep fps of tween motion.
I mean, I made a button that speeds up and down stage.frameRate, if I click the button it does stage.frameRate +=1 or stage.frameRate -=1, but if stage framerate changes, it speeds up the tween animation too.Is there anyway to keep the speed of tween animation?
What I want to do is there are 2 movie clips, mcA and mcB, and mcA animation is dependent on stage.frameRate, if I click the forementioned button to change stage framerate, it also changes mcA framerate, but I don't want to change mcB framerate.There is a tween AS, it moves "mcB.x = 0" to "mcB.x = 100" in 10 frames with tween.I want to keep the pace of the tween animation.
Please give me your advice.

Use Actionscript to tween positions instead of using the timeline. Then you can base it on time rarther than frames. For starters, look into using the built-in Tween class. Once you get a flavor for using it, for better performance you can look into using third party tweening such as TweenLite.
