Video project gone

I think I really screwed up. I was recording a Halloween show directly into FCP, plugged into AC power.
I disconnected the AC and got a prompt to the order of "some frames were dropped," and the entire hour I'd been capturing is gone.
Is it hiding somewhere, or since I didn't save it before disconnecting the power am I just plain SOL?

OUCH.
The bright side of this is that you'll never do that again. direct to FCP, while a potential timesaver, is full of all sorts of dangers like this one. Direct capture if you think you really have to, but always roll some sort of backup.

  • How do I move a video project from Encore to AIR via Flash Builder?

    I've got a rather complex video project with lots of submenus (that works as a DVD - so it is "debugged") that I need to be able to export from Encore into an app to upload on the iTunes store and Android Market. So far, I've managed to export the project via Encore's Flash output and test the results using a web browser (it works). Everything got saved in a new folder structure with an index.html file pointing to the flashdvd.swf file pointing to the AuthoredContent.xml file that actually holds all the information on the file structure (there are 99 files in the Sources subfolder) and uses the default generated Theme.xml file.
    What I need to do is to somehow import all this into Flash Builder as a project so it can become the source for the various "app" platforms. My questions are:
    1. I've got Flash Builder 4.5 - do I need to upgrade to 4.7 in order to import the project or can this be done in 4.5?
    2. Is there some intermediate step that I'm missing?
    3. Will Flash Builder be able to repackage all these files into the file specs required by each target platform (I'm assuming it will - is that a valid assumption)?
    And moving downstream a bit...
    4. Since this is a video based project with over 200 megabytes of F4V content, how will the content arrive on the end user device? Will it have to be  streamed or can it be downloaded? - this is a big issue should the app become popular and we be forced to maintain a streaming server somewhere. What about server sizing in such an event? For example: is there a way to estimate how much bandwidth is required per 1,000 instances?

    Oh, no i think i clicked Solved but it's not at all solved and i don'tt see a way to reverse it and clicked unsolved.
    I'v tried reading the Manuals but still don't see the solution. 
    I think I've misworded my question.  Perhaps i shall have to start a new question.
    What i want to know is very basic.
    How do i take a video i see on either youTube or another side and put it either on my iPod (i guess via iTunes) or put it into a document or an email??
    Do i copy some link?  Copy what exactly?  Do i click and drag something?
    I think if i knew how to get a video to iTunes I could be able to sync it. 
    But i don't know the first thing, how to get a video onto iTunes, or email, or a document.
    Thank you both.

  • How to get photos show up in a video project?

    Hi! I'm trying to import photos from a Canon Powershot SX210 IS into a movie project. I first imported the photos into iPhoto library and photos show up in the project, then I drag and drop then into the project timeline but once I play the video project it only shows black instead of the videos. What do I have to do? Do the photos have to be in certain file format / certain size? Now the photos are raw 14 megapixel monsters. Thanks for help!

    I have the same problem and it's not just when I input photos but even when I add a transition at the beginning of the show.

  • How to create a DVD with multiple video projects

    I want to burn a DVD with several short video projects so that it will run without stopping in between.

    Hi
    *Play all resp one chapter at a time*
    Play All Button
    1. There are NO - Play All - button in any version of iDVD
    2. It can be faked in several ways
    • Easies and most fault proof way is to make a doublet movie containing All and with
    Chapters set to match. It will take up x2 space but is easy to understand and produce.
    • It's said that one can put all movies into a Photo/SlideShow and this will also
    give the function of a Play All button - Never tested though.
    • Using another program to do this eg. Roxio Toast™ where there ia a Play All button option.
    Mike Evangelist1
    You might be able to get close to what you want by using a slideshow in iDVD. (It's not widely known, but you can put videos in a slideshow.) If you set the slide duration to manual, playback will pause after each movie/slide, and you can continue with the 'next' button.

  • How do I save my video project as a data file?

    I am preparing a video project on a deadline and they have requested I send it to them in a data file format. I don't see where I can save it that way. Help!

    mickeyb
    If you transfer the computer hard drive saved project file to a USB flash drive or to burned to disc as data disc with 3rd party software, the project file will be of little use without its source media and Premiere Elements version that supports it. If your associates are asking for a project file, then consider archiving the project, using Premiere Elements Editor with File Menu/Project Archiver and the Copy Project option. That will save copy of project file plus copies of source media in a Copied Folder to the computer hard drive. This Folder can then be transferred to a USB Flash Drive. The recipient still needs Premiere Elements to open the copy of the project file from the Copied Folder on the USB Flash Drive inserted into the recipient's computer. If a Movie Menu is included with the project, then the following needs to be considered
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12: Archiving Projects With Disc Menus
    Is the request for project as data file related to your associates wanting
    a. to edit the project
    or
    b. see what the project looks like in its most current version?
    If "b", you might want to think about exporting the Timeline to a AVCHD.mp4 files and saving it as .mp4 data to the computer hard drive or USB Flash Drive. Premiere Elements does not support menus for Timeline content saved to file.
    Please review and consider and then we can discuss this further.
    Thank you.

  • Can I break up a video project into smaller projects using prel 10?

    I've created a large video project in prel 10 ( the 0s is win7). I want to break it up into smaller new video projects so I don't lose all my existing assembly and editing work. Can I do this and if so how? Thanks

    Keep the original project and  do a "save as" with a different name for each individual project and just delete what you don't want from each smaller project.

    SImple first: try resetting it. Hold down the Sleep and the Home buttons until the Apple logo displays on the screen.  This will not have any effect on your data.

  • I restored my iPad and all my pictures and videos are gone how do I get them back?

    I restored my iPad and all my pictures and videos are gone how do I get them back?

    Well, when you restore your ipad, there is really no way to get the information back. The reason you restore it i to get all of the information off of it. Why did you restore it if you wanted to keep the info?
    Aa far as I know, there is no way to un-restore any device. But, you can put the info back onto the device if it was on your computer, etc.
    Sorry...

    Same thing for a movie file.. If you want to play back the movie via a DVD and a DVD player you must create a Movie DVD  and not just burn files to a data DVD... as Data DVDs are just storage devices for files and therefore will only work with computers...
    Movie DVDs are special formats that include things like menus and special file formats.. so they can playback via a DVD Player...
    You will need a 3rd party DVD Burning app like Toast which is what i actually use.... or the more popular DVD Creator app...to create and then burn a Movie DVD that will playback on a DVD Player....

  • Does anyone know why- when I iport a one minute video project into Final Cut X from I Movie the resolution that looked alright in IMovie full screen becomes worst in final cut, full screen...but clear when it is in still position?

    Does anyone know why- when I import a one minute video project into Final Cut X from I Movie the resolution that looked alright full screen in I Movie instantly becomes worst on full screen in Final Cut X...but clear again when I stop it to still position?

    I'm new to video editing but I think I recall seeing an option in FCPX which lets you choose the video quality for the preview window. I think the window reduces the quality when playing back for performance reasons and so perhaps that is why it seems to have less quality when moved over to FCPX? Just a possibility, I'm sure one of the more experienced users can confirm or deny this theory.

  • Where can i hire 50 iPhones for a video project.

    HI all, I was wondering if any one here would have a option or idea on where i could hire 50 iphones for a video project idea. I'm a creative director for a sports company and we have a idea using the video opition on the iphones and making a edit which will back up our new print and internet advertising campaign. I not sure contact how i would or could contact the right people at Apple that could help me. So thought i put it here.

    Adobe stop developement of Adobe Flash Player for all mobile devices almost two years, ago.
    Mobile Flash player doesn't exist for either Apple iDevices on iOS or Android device and their apps.
    So, Apple is NOT going to be able to help you.
    Puffin, SkyFire and Photon all charge a little for their web browsers because they are THE ONLY ONES, that provide any type of limited support for Adobe Flash Player.
    There are no other apps or web browsers that will allow viewing of Adobe Flash Player based content.
    So, good luck to you.

  • Adobe Elements 11 Video Projects

    Adobe Elements 11 Video Projects is empty.
    I have Adobe Elements 11 and Premiere 11.
    I cannot get my Premiere 11 projects to show up in Adobe Elements 11 Organizer Video Projects (left panel under Albums).

    Barbara B, thanks for getting me into the correct forum.
    ATR, thanks for the answer. I just started using Photoshop Elements 11 (reading its Classroom in a Book) and also Premiere Elements 11 Classroom in a Book page 11 does not show a triangle to the left of "Video Projects".
    I have Win 7 64 and my project files (prel) are correctly located in C:\Users\vaughan\Documents\Adobe\Premiere Elements\11.0.
    My error, which was:
    When I clicked on the menu items "Albums" or MyFolders (e.g.) it would properly reveal the hidden lists below them.
    So, I mistakenly assumed, clicking on the word "Video Projects" would reveal the list of my projects below it.
    I should have, as you instructed, clicked on the "right pointing black triangle" to the left of "Video Projects" to reveal the hidden list below it.
    ATR, thanks for your help.

  • What PPI should I use when exporting for a video project?

    I shoot RAW photos.  I like and use Premier Elements 11 to make video.  Frequently I insert photos in the videos and enjoy using the Pan and Zoom technique (frequently credited to Ken Burns).
    Resizing photos helps Premier Elements to run smoothly.  The LR Export command makes it easy.  Using PSD files works well in Premier Elements.  However, I am confused about settings.
    My understanding is that if no Pan&Zoom or cropping is to be done in the video the export should be 1920x1080.  If Pan&Zoom is planned, the setting should be higher by about 50%.  LR makes it simple by letting you specify the "Long Edge" so the setting would be 2880.   The short edge will match the original. 
    What about "Pixels Per Inch" for a HD 1920x1080 video project that may be played on a big HD TV or smaller YouTube?  There is plenty of information about PPI for printing and computer monitors, but not HD Video. 
    Here is screen capture for reference:
    What should the pixels per inch be set at to match 1920x1080 video?  The 140 setting is a complete guess!
    Thanks in advance!

    The above sentence from your first post is the correct answer with a few changes as to what settings you need to use in LR's Export module.
    Anytime you "resize" an image it will lose sharpness unless you apply Output Sharpening. I have no idea if Premier Elements applies sharpening, how much it applies, or how much using large raw images slows it down. The best suggestion is for YOU to resize the raw images and apply Output Sharpening that meets YOUR taste as to "crispness." That way Premier Elements will use the properly sized TIFF or JPEG images (no PNG Export in LR) with no further modifications.
    For 1080p (1920 x 1080) Videos:
    Don't use the 'Long Edge' option in LR's Export module since you want both portrait and Landscape images to have the same height. Instead simply enter W: 1920, H: 1080, and Resolution as mentioned doesn't matter. For the Output Sharpening LR's Screen Standard setting should work fine, but review the resized images at 1:1 and adjust to your taste. LR's Develop module Sharpening settings should NOT be used for this purpose. This is for the initial "capture" sharpening only.
    As you mentioned when using Zoom & Pan you will want to increase the file size proportional to the actual Zoom setting you are using inside Premier Elements:
    150% = 2880 x 1620
    200% = 3840 x 2160
    300% = 5760 x 3240
    For best results I'd limit your Zoom to 150%, especially if you’re having performance issues. You also don't want to make your image larger than its native camera raw resolution, which will reduce the sharpness. For higher Zoom settings simply Export the images full-size without using ‘Image Sizing’ or ‘Output Sharpening.’ Use 'File Settings' JPEG, sRGB, with 80 Quality setting, which will provide good results.
