Why is the preview window for my timeline so pixilated?

why is the image in my preview window for my timeline so pixilated? im using a mac pro 16gb ram/ 6 core / firepro d300

thanks for your feedback! This is my first week with premiere and its been a lot of fun, but im still learning my way around and the terminology, so i appreciate all feedback and correction.
What I'm seeing in the program monitor is a sharp image when it's paused and a pixilated image when it's playing. I'm not sure how, or where i would make the adjustments. Also, I have been using lots of educational videos on youtube to learn my way around, but is there like a book or something that will teach me the basics? I don't want to be asking basic stuff on here. Thanks again

Is the Preview Window always an accurate representation?

CS3. Two issues:
1.
1920x1080 menu with 1920x1080 motion background(mpeg file). The menu file has an outline as well as drop shadow effect created in Photoshop.
However, in the preview window, the outline and drop shadow look different(see example). I realize I could get rid of the problem by collapsing the effect in Photoshop, but why do I have to? Some kind of scaling issue........?
2.
I have a motion background to the menu. What's moving is a little circular blade to the left of play movie, which spins. It makes 2 complete circles in 20 frames. The 11th and 21 frames would look like the first. ( The reason the background movie is 2 complete spins looping(instead of one) is that Encore won't use any movie less than .4 seconds as a menu background.)
Anyway, the preview window doesn't show a smooth looping spinning blade. It kind of starts again after 20 frames of looping instead of going on continiously "forever", which is what I want. OR is this just a preview window problem which will go away at burning time.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the title remote info. I ended up linking it to the main menu. It plays exactly the same.
The Transition Movie DOES play if my burned DVD plays in my laptop computer's internal DVD player. It also plays unburned within the project/within the preview window in Encore.
The very same DVD does NOT play the Transition Movie if I place it in the external "traditional" non-computer DVD that is hooked up to my 32 inch LCD TV set. It skips over the transitional movie and goes right to the regular movie. It's like my TV's DVD player ignores it(the transitional movie).
So my transitional movie DOES play:
1. As part of the project, unburned , and in the Encore preview window.
2. After burned onto disk and on my laptops internal DVD player.
Transition movie does NOT play:
1. After burned and on my regular DVD player hooked up to my television

Video will not show in the preview window

I am using iMovie 08 and have some video that I pulled into iMovie using my iSight. Whenever I am trying to preview my movie it will not show in the preview window. I did a software update for iMovie and the issue is still happening. Any ideas??

Although the same not preview-able iMovie event played perfectly fine when transferred to a different mac running perian and divx, disabling Perian solved the issue on my macbook, too!
Thanks for the tip!
I still wonder why some clips preview and some don't (with perian running)...

Why are the open windows not listed in any kind of order?

It's bad enough there's no menu showing all the open tabs, but why does the dropdown menu for open Windows not be in ANY order whatsoever? It would certainly stop having to look up and down the list every time I want to go to a different window if they were in either alphabetical or chronological order.

The windows listed in the Window menu are in chronological order starting with the oldest window near the top and the newest window at the bottom.
The problem might be that you've opened a new tab in an old window. The windows are still listed in the same order but now they have the name of the newest tab.
In my screenshot I opened this question in a new tab in my oldest window.

What computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 10 to run on?
You are involved in the Premiere Elements 10/NVIDIA GeForce issue whose full details (description and fix) are included
in the Announcement at the top of this forum. Copy for your convenience below.
You gave a lot of details but did not include the computer operating system. This information may be the key whether
the known fix will work for you. The known fix requires roll back of the driver version to about May 2013. If your computer
is Windows 8 or 8.1 64 bit, there may not be a driver old enough to resolve the issue. This may force you consider
a Premiere Elements version other than 10 or a different video card/graphics card for your computer. This issue is
specific for Premiere Elements 10 and the NVIDIA GeForce cards.

Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA Video Card Driver Roll Back
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card and you are experiencing
Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling
back the video card driver version instead of assuring that it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and unexplained workflow
glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this
applies to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary
to get rid of the problems. The typical driver roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working
Premiere Elements 10. Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is
expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports

Why does the document window in illustrator cs6 move to the far left when I reopen the file?

why does the document window in illustrator cs6 move to the far left when I reopen the file?

Hi John,
thanks for the fast response. cs5 remembered the window position. I like having the window in the middle as I have a 27" monitor. I just upgraded to cs6 yesterday and I'm sure it was remembering the window document position. I think. If i find out how to fix this, I'll post it here.
And while I'm on the subject of cs6, why the f*** did adobe combine the stroke and swatches pallettes? Now I forever have to click stroke and swatch tabs all day. And I love the army and navy file icons of photoshop and illustrator. I won't comment on Acrobat X. ; (

Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??

Why does the view window all of a sudden expand the content of the page I am viewing so that I have to go to "view" and click actual size??
Then a few minutes later, it goes back to expanded again, it is driving me crazy. how can I stop this????
Thanks for any help.

There could be a number of reasons, first thing to check is if you are clicking Command + or Command -. The Command 0 keystrokes restore Safari to the actual size. You can also reset Safari by Safari - Reset.

Why does the file Name for file attached with Annotations "Attach File" (paperclip) become Unknown when Comments are Published?

Our company recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for the purpose of using it for shared electronic reviews. We are using Send for Shared Review created in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, and all the Comment tools work as expectedexcept the paperclip in Annotations.
When a Word or Excel or Image(png,jpeg) file is attached using the Annotations paperclip, the initiator can initially see and open it. But after Publish Comments is selected and the review file is closed, the file "Name" changes to "Unknown" (although the Description has the correct file name and extension). The Modified information is Unknown, as is the Size and Compressed Size.
When the review file is then re-opened, even the initiator cannot open the file, although:
The file location is marked with the paperclip within the document.
The file name is shown in the Comments List with the initiator's name.
In the Attachments list (the paperclip beneath the Thumbnails and Bookmarks) the Name appears as Unknown, Description shows the file name, Modified is Unknown, Size is Unknown, and Compressed Size is Unknown.
The file Name cannot be edited, although the file Description can be.
We have followed the procedure described in the tutorials but cannot figure out how to troubleshoot this situation. Since this feature was the reason for the purchase of Adobe Acrobat Pro IX, we would any help. Please don't leave out any basics since we are all new users.
We have several people with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and the rest have Adobe Reader XI and it is a Windows platform. Can someone please give us some advice how to get this feature to work as described?

FYI Rave,
There are some other forum entries with this exact same issue...:

Adjusting the Size of the Text in the Preview Window in RH8

Hello, Everyone!
I am new to the forum, but I've been lurking for a while.
We have upgraded from RoboHelp 7 to RoboHelp 8, and I have encountered some conversion issues. The primary layout type of the project is Microsoft HTML Help.
First, the text in the preview window is extremely small -- much too small to be useful to these old eyes. Has this changed in RoboHelp 8? Is there a setting somewhere that enables me to bump up the size of the preview text?
Also, I am encountering a number of spacing issues, including:
Extra space after an em dash (no spaces in version 7)
No space after a colon (there was a space in version 7)
Bullets display as numbers in the preview window, but seem to be OK in "live" version (bullets were fine in version 7)
Finally, we want to make this an AIR application, but the AIR option isn't available in the Single Source Layouts area for this project. When I create a new project, the AIR option is there. What am I missing?
Can anyone offer suggestions as to how I can fix these things? (I am not an "under the hood" kind of guy, so please don't assume I know a lot about the guts of RoboHelp.)
Thanks for any help you can offer!
clintfan

Hi there
When you examine the Single Source Layouts pod (View > Pods > Single Source Layouts) do you see AIR Help? If not, try right-clicking the pod and you should be able to define a new layout for AIR.
Cheers... Rick

Why is the logon box for puzzles.telegraph.co.uk not responding? (it used to )

Why is the logon box for puzzles.telegraph.co.uk not responding? (it use to to). I have to use Firefox to access this site, which I pay for.

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

Is there a way to make the flyout window for the adjustments panel close automatically?

The flyout window for the tool on the adjustments panel is OK, although I'm not thrilled that it takes up space inside of the image. Is there a way to either make it open within the panel the way it did in CS5 or close automatically when you have finished making adjustments?

Just to help with terminology in the future...
The Adjustments is not in itself normaly called a ''flyout window'', and it operates like other panels and responds to the settings R_Kelly has mentioned.
There's a menu sometimes called the ''fly-out menu'' that you get when you click the little icon at the upper-right corner of the Adjustments panel.
I just wanted to mention the distinction because experts may at first be confused if you describe a panel itself as ''flyout'', even though that's what they do.

The finder window for an external USB hard disk suddenly started separating files by time (today, yesterday, etc.) and stopped allowing me to change column width, order, etc. Also the header bar shifted to flat white from gray.

The finder window for an external USB hard disk suddenly started separating files by time (today, yesterday, etc.) and stopped allowing me to change column width, order, etc. Also the header bar shifted to flat white from gray.
All was normal until the icon for the disk stopped showing up on the desktop when I would plug it in. I rebooted the computer, and the disk icon now shows up but this new look to the finder window started as a result. The hard disk does not have this problem when I use it on another Mac running Snow leopard. Also, two other external hard disks that I use on this computer running lion 7.4 still have the normal header bars with columns that can be reordered, etc.
I have tried looking in preferences and other places but have not seen this discussed.

Well duh - I finally figured out that somehow in the View options for the hard drive, the "arrange by" option had been changed to "by date" from "none". Not sure how that happened, I had never used the "view options" menu tem before. Changing "arrange by" back to "none" gets the gray column headers and the collapsible folder icons back.

Aspect Ratio Problem (black bars on top and bottom in the preview window)

I have iMovie 08 and I have been shooting video on my new Canon HF100. It appears that in iMovie preview window my 1920x1080 (and even the ones I bring in in 960x540) videos appear to be in wrong aspect ratio - they are stretched beyond 16:9 ratio horizontally. The problem persists if I export the movie through Quicktime - the videos are still stretched. In the preview window in iMovie I have the right 16:9 box but it has black bars on to and the bottom. The clips themselves in the time line seem to be the correct aspect ratio.

Also I have found this on the export video screen which narrows it down a bit...
Here's how the source tab of that screen looks...
compared to the output tab, with the black bars that are my issue...
So where did I go wrong here?

I have just installed Lion and the text window for the web address in safari has disappeared. Anyone know how to get it back?
