What causes time remap to be unavailable

CS4
I don't know much about time remapping but I have used it long enough ago to have forgotten what ever I might have known.
I did remember setting Layer/time/timremap, but when I select a layer and try to do that the `remap'  menu item is unavailable (greyed out).  So what might cause that to not be available.
Its a still image layer where I used the CCScaterize effect.   Does that prevent timemapping?

from the "Time-remapping" page:
"Still-image layers cannot be time-remapped."
What are you trying to accomplish? Time remapping doesn't make sense for a still image.
If what you're trying to accomplish is remapping time on the result of the CC Scatterize effect, then precompose the layer with the effect and use time remapping on the precomposition layer.
I recommend that you begin here:

  • What causes "Timed out server" in WL Cluster and a question about session in WL Cluster

              Hi.
              We are using Weblogic 5.1 with SP 8. We have been encountering a problem in our
              clustered environment. We setup our (clustered)environment to have 3 instances(WL1,
              WL2, WL3) of weblogic running in one box. When one instance, let say WL1, responds
              to a request(1st request for a session), the session is binded to that instance
              till the session is terminated/expired. Which means succeeding request for that
              session can only be served by WL1(we tried stopping WL1 but WL2 and WL3 wont accept
              the request--which only causes the page to time out). Shouldnt it behave in such
              a way that other instances can get serve the request(failover)?
              Also, occasionally we encounter "Time out server" in one of the instance of WL.
              When this happens, that instance no longer takes in requests. Would anyone know
              what causes "Time out server"? Does it only happen in clustered environment?
              Need some help ASAP.
              Tnx in adv.
              

              What do you have in front of WebLogic for Load Balancing?
              What are the IP addresses/hostnames of your three instances? What hostname are
              you using in your http requests? Is your DNS configured to do failover?
              Make sure that you have session replication turned on. See the edocs.bea.com.

    Are the lines like psychedelic herringbone?  If yes, I had that happen once, it was something serious, like the
    Logic board. The good news is that it was fixed without any loss of data on the hard drive. Take it in to have Apple look at it ASAP.  I took it to TekServe at the time, they are very nice about preserving your data and user library when possible.
    Good luck and don't panic.

  • Timewarp / time remapping not running smoothly?

    Hi, I've got a problem with speed variation. I got 25fps exr footage rendered out of 3ds max which I want to add some speed variation to it in AE. The problem I'm facing is the footage stutters when using time remapping. basically what I was trying to do was to render the scene out very slow so I can crank it up  in AE. I've even tried different blending modes (pixel motion).
    Here is what happens when  trying to add some speed variation (when  slowing it down to the footage initial speed)
    1. time remapping causes stuttering.
    2. while timewarp gives strange interpolation errors (looks like blurring error) speed goes like 100-->150-->100 and errors occurs when going back to 100
    system:
    windows 7 64bit, i7 2600k, 3,4GhZ, 16GB RAM, Geforce GTX 580
    AE CS5.5

    this  1 got timewarp ( and speed is cranked up, not slowed down)
    thats the interpolation frame
    that's without timewarp
    time remapping brings same error but for  RPF files looks like it works for EXR
    looks like stuttering is not a problem anymore. i ran  another random speed variation test and it'd run smooth. Have to double check it with the intended speed variation
    I'll try to post a   similar project where file size is smaller

  • Time remapping a nested sequence results in black/empty video

    Hey!
    I have a long sequence (47 minutes), which I wish to time remap (to increase the speed at certain Keyframes). I have therefore nested the sequence into a Master Sequence, where I perform the time remapping. However I experience what appears to be a weird bug: At a certain frame the video turns black/empty and stays that way - even though the original sequence still has video material.
    It doesn't help splitting the clip (nested sequence) up in smaller clips and time remap those individually - the empty frames just appear earlier in each clip.
    Export works fine
    When I export the sequence as Media, the output seems fine however.
    I hope, that you are able to help me or tell me, if I'm doing something wrong.
    Thanks in advance!
    Hardware info
    I work on a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014).

    it depends on how powerful the video card is, and how many accelerated effects are being used. it might slow you down a little, or alot. if you have an intel graphics, they arent very powerful to begin with, basically just good for browsing the web. however premiere tries to use them and they cause lots of problems. im not sure if its premiere or intel thats causing the problem, but they dont play nice together.  if you have the nvidia version macbook, you might have opencl or cuda available in the renderer menu. if it was on opencl, could try cuda, or opencl if it was on cuda.

  • Time remapping in After Effects using Premiere Pro clip

    I'm probably losing it cause this should be idiot proof. I watched the Creative Cow tutorial but he must be using an earlier version of the suite.
    The problem: I want to remap an 8sec clip and more radically slow down the footage then use the frame blend mode. When ever I dynamic link
    the clip into AE and enable time remapping, the program does not give me the two set key frames at the clips beginning and end as the tutorial said it would. Now when I drag the footage to make it longer, it doesn't freeze frame at the end of the clip but instead brings in footage from the source file. What am I missing and is there a manual way to achieve this so that I can remap the premiere clip only?
    Thanks for any help.

    the program does not give me the two set key frames at the clips beginning and endThat is not true in general. As Mylenium told you, in PrPro and AE you are working in non-destructive way. That means when you replace your short clip in PrPro timeline, the whole footage is still there, but AE composition is properly trimmed according to your PrPro timeline.
    When you enable time remapping, AE DOES create two keyframes, but you don't just see them because your original footage is much longer and the keyframes are simply out of your AE comp ongoing borders...

  • Sandbox cause my app kept connecting unavailable network drive

    Sandbox cause my app kept connecting unavailable network drive, can it be fixed?
    I have to manually delete sandbox config every time to prevent app hang.

    Hi Jaggs,
       nice question!
       I think the problem is that is not only your LabView application which stops, but the Operating System which hangs, if Storage device access fails.  I experienced this problem under many OSs, Win, Linux, Dos-like...even RTOSes (try to access a corrupted Flash card in PharLap ETS for FieldPoint!).
       To check if drive is present, you can ping it... it's quite naive, but at least you avoid the "drive disconnected" problem... I think a ping shouldn't hang PC...
       What Hardware are you controlling? You know, some NI boards (many...) have onboard memory, and can sample independently of PC control....for a while, of course!
       I hope some guru will answer to your question (which I didn't answered, I know! ), because I'm interested too!
       Have a nice day!

  • Time remapping lip sync issue.

    I'll try to explain this the best way I know how.
    I created a pre-comp for my character mouths (as shown in the picture below). I then created a Null Layer and parented the Time Remapping of the mouth pre-comp to the Null Layer "rotation" using the principals of this video:
    Part 1: "Using Time Remapping For Lip-Sync Part 01"
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5GIOtfYWpQ
    Part 2: "Using Time Remapping For Lip-Sync Part 02"
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NNJgUz1t2rU
    I'm sure this is not new.
    My problem is that when I render the video the mouths do not reflect what is shown during editing... While I am editing I can ram render a small portion and the mouths will line up as I intend but once I do a final rendering they are slightly off at times... What am I doing wrong here?
    The screen shot shows that I am in my 'Mouths, LG' pre-comp and the cursor is situated to show "layer 23" in the "Mouths, LG pre-comp"... Now the preview window is showing one mouth for layer 23 (the wrong mouth) and when I open layer 23 you can see that a different mouth is shown towards the top left side of my attached image. I believe whatever is causing this is the problem but I don't know how to make it right.
    I'm running windows 7 64bit if that matters and I am running After Effects CS6 Version 11.0.2.12
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Are you nesting your Mouths comp in a main comp, enabling Time Remapping on that nested Mouths precomp and then animating?  I can't tell from your screen shots.
    And BEFORE nesting it, I'd also make that Mouths comp 1 frame shorter to eliminate that one empty frame at the end.
    Nothing like instructions in the wrong sequence, right?

  • What causes cellular data usage to decrease if last reset has not changed? I reset every pay period cuz I do not have unlimited and was showing 125 mb sent/1.2g received. Now showing 98mb sent/980mb received. Last reset still shows same

        I reset my cellular data usage every month at the beginning of my billing period so that I can keep track of how much data I am using thru out the month. I do not have the unlimited data plan and have gone over a few times. It's usually the last couple days of my billing cycle and I am charged $10 for an extra gig which I barely use 10% of before my usage is restarted for new billing cycle. FYI, they do not carry the remainder of the unused gig that you purchase for $10 which I disagree with. But have accepted. Lol  Moving on.
        I have two questions. One possibly being answered by the other. 1. Is cellular data used when I sync to iTunes on my home computer to load songs onto my iPhone from my iTunes library(songs that already exist)? 2. What causes the cellular data usage readings in iPhone settings/general/usage/cellular usage to decrease if my last reset has not changed? It is close to end of my billing cycle and I have been keeping close eye. Earlier today it read around 180mb sent/1.2gb received. Now it reads 90mb sent/980 mb recieved. My last reset date reads the same as before. I don't know if my sync and music management had anything to do with the decrease but i didn't notice the decrease until after I had connected to iTunes and loaded music. I should also mention that a 700mb app automatically loaded itself to my phone during the sync process. Is cellular data used at all during any kind of sync /iPhone/iTunes management? Is the cellular data usage reading under iPhone settings a reliable source to keep track of monthly data usage? Guess turned out to be more than two questions but all related. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer me. It is information I find valuable. Sorry for the book long question.

    Is cellular data used at all during any kind of sync /iPhone/iTunes management? Is the cellular data usage reading under iPhone settings a reliable source to keep track of monthly data usage?
    1) No.
    2) It does provide an estimated usage, but it's not accurate. For accurate determination, you should check the remaining/used MBs from the carrier (most of the carriers provide this service for free).
