When exporting, movie always tries to fade to black toward the end

when exporting, movie always tries to fade to black toward the end. trying to export just one picture, i realize that when exporting multiple pics to a movie it fades to black at the end, but im just doing one pic. settings are as follows, ken burns effect is being used, settings in slideshow, transition are "none". settings in "adjust" show transition as "none" also. this is my first post so hope that this makes sense. thanks.

wcminor:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I tried to duplicate your settings and exported to a QT movie. The movie did not fade to black at the end. It does fade when played in iPhoto.
My settings were:
In the slideshow window:
Effect: none
Default transitiion: none
In the settings pane:
KB is checked, transition is none.
It's the same whether there's music or not.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • Fade to black at the end

    Hi all
        I've started to use Motion 5 for a few weeks now but I'm kinda stuck on how to fade to black on a project. Ok it's a
    Motion 5 project (built in the program) called "Atmospheric - lower third" in the "Composition" section and I want to do a
    5 sec fade to black. I added about 5 sec to the 20 sec project making it 25 sec and I don't find a fading FX in the program.
    There IS a fade in and fade out together but I just want a fad out and how can I make it work?? I know I still need allot of
    practice with this program and I intend to get Lynda video tutorials soon but I need to to this now for next week and I have
    no idea what to do to make a good fade out. If it can't be done with this program can I export it to final cut X and do a fade
    there? Any help would be very welcomed!!!!
    THANKS!!!
    Serge

    The easiest thing to do is add a Color Solid:
    Press the Generators button at the bottom right of the canvas and select Generators > Color Solid. This gives you a specialized shape that automatically fills the canvas with color. Set the Color (in the inspector) to Black.
    Select the Properties tab and in the Blending section, set the Opacity to 0%
    Right click on the word "Opacity" and from the popup menu, select Parameter Behaviors > Ramp
    In the Behaviors inspector > Ramp, set the Start Value to 0% and the End Value to 100%
    Move the playhead in the mini Timeline to the place where you want the "fade out" to start.
    The Motion 5 Help window tends to be a little slow - and too in the way for me, so I have an online copy bookmarked for viewing in my browser here:
    http://help.apple.com/motion/mac/5.0/en/motion/usermanual/
    unfortunately, this version is not searchable, so I also keep the Motion 4 user manual bookmarked here:
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/motion/usermanual/index.html
    This version IS searchable. Keep in mind that Motion 4 and Motion 5 do not "look" the same. However, everything in the Motion 4 documentation (other than placement of icons, etc.) is concurrent with how Motion 5 works (Motion 5 has some new concepts that won't exist in the M4 documentation like Rigs and specialized drop zones that represent media content *in* FCPX.)
    If you're okay with dealing with the appearance differences between Motion 5 and earlier versions, here is a good source for basic "practice" exercises (skip the ones on "Round-Tripping" -- that no longer applies to M5/FCPX): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB7982C0260F090C1
    More here:
    http://www.applemotion.net/macbreak-studio/
    And some pretty advanced tutorials here:
    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeZvvhzFi_ZxWbzZ5bhJ45QWzPHQ3Y5qy
    All together, probably a better education than you'd get from Lynda.com and they're all free.

  • Error -108 when exporting movie iMovie??????

    As a guess, try right-clicking on your Event and see if it allows you to Optimize Media. If it does, choose Optimize - Full.
    Your export should now work.

  • When trying to export a slideshow from iphoto it is freezing at the end. what could be the issue?

    We have a slideshow we created in iphoto. How do I burn it in idvd. I cannot get the export to finish, it stalls towards the end. We have less than 200 photos. We were able to do it once now it will not complete the export process. A ny help would be appreciative.

    Hi barbara10,
    so far I do not know "Live Media Type", I guess Export your slideshow for "HD1080p" or for Codec: H264
    should be OK for iDVD.
    This belongs to German Version of Aperture.
    Did you create the slideshow? Was it a external slideshow?
    Hope this helps

    Can there be any external hard disks - if so How is/are it/they formatted ? Must be Mac OS Extended (hfs) if used for Video.
    UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange - works for most but not for VIDEO.
    What this means in Your situation is above me.
    • free space on internal boot hard disk? How much ?
    Video codec
    • streamingDV, AIC etc. (not .avi, .mp4, .m4v, .wmv etc as they are containers not codecs)
    Pictures
    • in what format ? .jpg, .bmp, .tif, else ?
    Audio
    • from where/what format ? iTunes, .avi, .mp3, .aiff, else ?
    The "com.apple.iMovie.plist" file
    Many users has not observed that there are TWO libraries.
    • Library - at root level
    • Library - in user/account folder - THIS IS THE ONE to look into
    from Luke Burns
    I fixed the problem.. but it was very, very strange. I had a very long section for credits and set the line spacing to 1.0.. for some reason this caused it. I removed it, and it worked fine. I put it back, and I couldn't preview or play the video.
    I don't know why that could cause that big of a problem, but it did..

    You need more free space on your hard drive.

    After phone support from apple I ended up creating a new project and adding all 117 clips back in individually till I found out what clips flagged and would not allow me to export. I had 3 I deleted and replaced and everything works now 1hr after tedious work....
    Where do Your material come from
    • Camera
    • External hard disk
    • USB-memory
    And all are connected so that iMovie can find it ?

  • Fade to black doesn't end completely in black

    This is driving me crazy. I've been using IMovie for years but first time on this new G4 laptop with IMovieHD. In a new project with clips in the timeline the scrubber won't extend to the very end of the clip. A fade to black doesn't end in black because when you zoom in the whole way on the scrubber bar you can't extend the scrubber the last sixteenth of an inch or so. This is screwing up fades and transitions. Anybody else seen this? I'm begging someone to respond. My second time posting this.

    Okay, just tried this myself.
    I see what you mean.
    Try this:
    At the end of your movie:
    Put a blank title after the fade out. This gives the playhead somewhere to go and your fade will go all the way to black.
    OR
    In the middle of your movie:
    Push the clips (transition included) appart so there's a little space between them. You should now see your transition fade all the way to black.

  • Why is Final Cut Express adding 5 minutes of black to the end of my .dv export?  I've marked it out, there are no additional clips at the end, it's doing this consistantly.

    I'm using Final Cut Express 4.0 and when I export to .dv it adds 5 minutes of black to the end of my export.  Any ideas on why this is happening?  I have it marked out and there are no additional clips at the end that it's trying to capture.

    According to previous posts in this forum, Apple does not support FCE with Lion, no less Mountain Lion. Nonetheless some people report no problems using FCE with Lion, depending upon upgrade protocols from Leopard etc. You list FEC 4.0, but FCE has an update to 4.01 free download from software update.

  • How can I make a fade out effect at the end of the song in garageband for iPad?

    GB for iPad doesn't have volume automation, you'd need to import the project into GB on a Mac to create the fade with a volume curve.
    as an alt, finish your song and export the audio file, then import the audio file in an audio editor and create a volume fade with that:

    Have you seen my User Tipp here
    "Movie Magic" with Stills and Dissolve
    When you 'prep' your stills in any 'picture app', you can do a lot of marvel by simply applying dissolves.
    In your case, I would create a white document (in Pixelmator, Keynote, Photshop, online at pixlr.com, whatever ...) and another with your logo (and further more ones with additional logos). Drag the jpgs into your iMovie Project and apply dissolves  - tadahh! - logos appear on white.

  • When recording a Video demo slide in Captivate 8, pressing the [END] key takes more than a minute to stop the recording. Why is there such a lag?

    When recording a Video demo slide in Captivate 8, pressing the [END] key takes more than a minute to stop the recording. Why is there such a lag? Additionally, the software I record experiences terrible lag times. For instance, It may take 15 seconds to display a 2-digit number I typed into a blank field. the same software has no lag issues when I'm not recording it.

    Yes and no. The CPTX file is on my PC. Our software that I'm making the demo of is on the network. but I'm not the "IT Guy" so I can't provide specifics; however, I work at a computer software company and we probably have more servers than employees. The network hardware is kept current. I've been making similar tutorials for 10 years and haven't run into this issue until switching to the subscription Captivate.
