Weird "white frame" in iMovie?

Hi. Anyone ever have a short "white frame" (like 0.5 or less of a second) show up unexpectedly between clips? Can't seem to get rid of it - and it totally interrupts the "flow" of my iMovie.
Thanks for the help!
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7) Also have a Mini

Might wanna post over in the appropriate iMovie forum.

DVC PRO White Frames

I'm collaborating on a DVC Pro project with an editor who has FCP 5. I have version 7. But when I open his project file to make notes, I see white frames in both the viewer and canvas windows.
I can open the clips in quicktime player, so it does not appear to be a codec issue. Footage is DVC ProHD 720p.
Also, as a shot in the dark I changed the canvas view to alpha and RGB , oddly enough I'm getting red monochrome of the footage - weird. RGB remains white, straight alpha white. I've tried all variations in the canvas view (checkerboard, overlays etc) and all other are white frames - weird.
I'm using a Macbook Pro 2.4ghz, 4 gigs ram 512 video card, FCP 7.01 in Leopard 10.5.8
Any thoughts on this much appreciated.

I remember FCP5 creating a different kind of QuickTime movie than FCP6 and FCP7 do. I believe FCP5 created "Final Cut Pro Movies" whereas FCP6 and FCP7 create "QuickTime Movies". Maybe you have mixed kinds of video files, and that is causing an issue? Are you able to view the video files in the finder, to see if you have different icons sitting in there?
Also, in the past 4 years I've seen white frames with DVCPRO-HD, it's been a codec issue.
Hope this helps!!

White frame in between Captivate slide and imported animation

Hi,
I created a simple movie in Flash. But when I import it into
an animation slide, there is a white frame that appears before the
animation begins. I don't see it when I look at the animation in
Flash. I don't see it when I preview each slide. I've checked all
slide settings and image settings - all set to "No transition" so
no "fade in or out" to blame. Any suggestions? Thanks!
Additional information: In the Flash forums, this appears to
be refered to as a "white flash," but I don't see any references to
how to fix it when used with Captivate.

Hi. Anyone get a weird (0.2 sec or so) "white
frame" (kind of a white "blink") between clips
(in my case, between two still photos with a music
track) that won't go away? I've tried to delete the
clips and re-add them, but can't seem to get rid of
it.
I got that blank frame also last night between 2 still photos with music in the background. Also tried to re-import the two photos but the blank frame still remains. *****, but you're not alone.

Spry menu hover in IE: How to get rid of white frame & "false"?

Hi--
I'm encountering an IE issue with a Spry vertical menu bar. When the user hovers over the submenu, white frames appear behind the submenu with the word "false" in them. Of course this doesn't happen in Safari or Firefox.
I was able to fix other similar problems with the menu by following tips posted on another forum. Namely, in the CSS, I disabled an IE hack that caused a white background to appear (menu background has to be transparent on this site). And in the JS, I disabled the following: this.removeIframeLayer(menu);
Here's the URL: http://www.qic-ec.org
Below are the css (1) and js (2).
Any help would be DEEPLY appreciated.
Thank you
Jackie

SpryMenuBar.js
This file handles the JavaScript for Spry Menu Bar. You should have no need
to edit this file. Some highlights of the MenuBar object is that timers are
used to keep submenus from showing up until the user has hovered over the parent
menu item for some time, as well as a timer for when they leave a submenu to keep
showing that submenu until the timer fires.

Oh, sorry, after I updated to 1.6.1 and uploaded the new code, I didn't post it here. Here it is (minus intro comments)--and it's still not working in IE (though I am testing on an older PC with IE 6). The problem only arises upon hovering.

How can I delete the video and keep the Audio in a few frames using Imovie 11

How can I delete the video and keep the Audio in a few frames using Imovie 11?

I've met the problem too before. but i solved it with Audio Converter Mac instead of iMovie. If you have similar situation that just want to keep audio but not video, and if your file format is not workable in iMovie, you can use the Audio Converter for help too. it can easily help to extract audio soundtrack from any video format. Or if you need to convert one audio format to another, it is a good choice too, because it supports many common audio output formats.

Cross-dissolve from white frame to adjustment layer no longer works in CC 2014

Windows 7, Premiere Pro CC 2014
I have a video clip in a nested sequence on V1 and an adjustment layer on V2.
I want to dissolve from a white frame to the clip using the adjustment layer.
In PP CC (not 2014) this was simple:
Starting with a white PNG graphic on V2, cross-dissolve to the adjustment layer.
However, in PP CC 2014, this causes a dissolve to BLACK over the duration of the dissolve and then a CUT to the video.
This behavior in CC 2014 is illogical. Why has it changed?
There are other ways to do this, but this one was quick and easy, and is required for hundreds of clips in existing sequences / projects.
Response from support via live chat:
thank you for your patience
the adjustment is layer is not functioning properly
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&loc=en
please mention it in the feature/bug request form

For me with a color matte it shows exactly the same behavior as with a PNG.
You're dissolving between the matte and the adjustment layer on V2?

Can I create a still photo montage in one frame with imovie 08?

I want to cut a part of several single frames in imovie, and paste each of them in one single frame in imovie, or iphoto, so that I can print a single photo montage of all the cut images. Is this possible in imovie 08 and iphoto, and if not, does anyone know what software will do this?
Thanks, Rick

Sorry this isn't possible in im08, try creating single frames in PS and importing them into imovie.

Does anyone know how to add multiple pictures to a single frame in iMovie?

Does anyone know how to add multiple pictures to a single frame in iMovie?

Maybe you would be better off posting this in the iPhoto or iDVD categories of the forums.

http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=128
The answer to your question depends on what you ant to do with the DVD.
Do you want a DVD menu, slide show etc.
iPhoto will allow you to burn straight to a DVD. Just select the album you want to burn then go to share in the tool bar and select Burn.

Quicktime files showing up as white frame since Leopard upgrade

Recently upgraded to new Mac tower running Leopard from G5 running Tiger. Did a migration copy from old to new system. Since then iWeb'08 where I had been placing my quicktime files for my podcast are not showing a thumbnail only a white frame. It publishes correctly but very annoying. Any ideas?

I'm having the same problem in 10.4.11.

White frames on black background?

When texts and images on my web page are loading there are white frames visible against my black background. If they need to be there, can I change them to black maybe? My webpage is www.carlsonahnell.se. Thanks!

Just to reinforce what Kyn as already alluded to, the behavior that you mention is a function of the browser as it renders the page...and it stands to be different with different browsers. I just looked at your pages from a PC using FireFox...and all I get is black background with outlines where the images are loading...no white frames! I can see how it would look more distracting with the white frames, though.
I don't think this is a property that can be set in the browser...except to tell it to wait for everything to download before displaying the page...that doesn't sound like a fun option.

Can I remove/adjust the white frame surrounding images in finder?

I find the large white frames surrounding image files in the finder and on desktop bulky and annoying. Can this be changed/minimalised/removed in preferences or any other way?

I've taken some screenshots so I can show what I'm talking about.
LEFT: How images used to look when sitting on my desktop.
RIGHT: How images on the desktop look in Mountain Lion.
And here are what images look like in the finder in icon view:
TOP: Images in the finder, old version.
BOTTOM: Images in the finder in Mountain Lion.
I want to get rid of those white borders. Or at least get them down to one pixel or something.

Hello nonnozeus
Welcome to Apple Discussions
That looks like the front glass panel needs to be removed for cleaning.
Your options are to take it to your local Apple Service Provider/Apple Store and have then clean the display and glass panel, if it's no longer under warranty then (DIY) Do It Yourself.

HELP!! White frame where Flash movies should be!!!

Can't figure a single reason why this is doing what it's
doing. Everything works fine before I create the projector.....but
once I launch it and test, all my Flash movies are just white
frames of the same size as the movies are supposed to be. No sound
or anything. Does the same thing on the Mac or PC side. I've tried
checking and unchecking DTS, etc. but I can't figure this one out.
My project is due TODAY....first time I've had this problem
before, ever.....HELP!!!

I thought about that (actually made that mistake with the
Buddy API Xtra), but I just now got it to work....seems as though
it doesn't like talking to a shared drive space between my Windows
and Mac partitions, even though it'll play just fine within
Director while I'm working on the project. I copied everything
over, all the directories, etc. to my Windows side, created a test
projector from there, and voila!
Thanks for the suggestion; I used to make that Xtra mistake a
LOT.

Weird BLACK FRAMES ...

Folks, I'm suddenly getting these weird black frames around every selected item or window. It first emerged when I was working in Photoshop, and suddenly a large black frame covered part of the monitor (emerging off the screen). This black frame would disappear & reappear when I would click out of the image area (clicking inside a palette, or other item)... as soon as I would begin rendering again, boom, the black frame reappeared. Sometimes it would partially conform to the boundaries of my image, sometimes off to the side and running off the screen as though it was indicating the boundary for some large phantom window.
When closing Photoshop, the weirdness continued, with black frames forming around ANY icon or entry window. ----- I tried restarting my Mac, even shutting the machine off for awhile and rebooting. The frames came back.
Also... in the Apple pull down menu along the top, there are now 2 Restart lisings, 2 shutdown listings, and 2 Logout listings (I don't recall ever seeing TWO of each of these).
Is my OS corrupted somehow? (as it is NOT isolated to Photoshop, but appears constantly.)
Thanks for any tips or notions!

THANK you so much folks!! That was it.
What a weird little anomoly. What is that "Voice over" function intended for anyway???

Create jpeg from still frame in imovie

Hello,
Can anyone tell me how I can create a jpeg from a frame within imovie?
Thanks so much.
Ashley

I was just trying to figure this out the other day and found that you can easily do this from QuickTime Pro. So you'd need to export a small movie from imovie that contains the frame you want to grab (or a movie you've already created), and then from QuickTime Pro, from the file menu, choose export, and then choose "movie to picture". From that menu box you can choose a range of options and file types to save your image file. I couldn't find this feature within imovie. If you don't have QT Pro, it is a $30 upgrade to the base QT Player.
