Wrong picture ICON for chapter MARKER!

I'm trying to make a wedding DVD for a friend, I've never had a problem before but it won't play the correct chapter thumbnail in the template that matches the correct marker made. I'm using "silver wedding".
I edited it in FCP using chapter markers, at first they wouldn't even load correctly when I put it in iDVD (only the words, no picture at all) now I got it to work by turning off the "loop" but now 2 of the 15 chapters show the WRONG thumbnail icon that goes with that chapter. It's completely arbitrary, I see no logical pattern. And here's the funny part, when I select that chapter, it's the correct chapter, just showing the wrong picture icon for that chapter. Any thoughts?

Hi
My thoughts
a. Trash iDVD pref file
b. In FCP - NO Chapter mark at the very beginning ! iDVD Has to do this by it self.
c. From FCP I do
• Export out as a QuickTime .mov file (Chapter marks set to be exported !)
• Not self contained (not important but saves time and space)
• NO QuickTime Conversion - IMPORTANT
d. There is an iDVD BUG ! If You make an iDVD project - then go back to movie
to alter/correct - iDVD will notice and ask to Update or Cancel - NEITHER WORKS
Medicine - Start a new iDVD project and re-do.
e. Try another theme - to figure out if this can be the culprit
f. free space on internal start-up hard disk > 25Gb ?

  • Poster frame for chapter marker

    In many of my productions the best place for a chapter marker isn't the best place for the vidoe to show up within a drop zone. Is there a way of keeping a chapter marker at a given timeline location but assign a different frame from the chapter to represent it on a DVD chapter chooser.
    Andy

    And now I am having trouble importing my chapter markers. The export fine to QT from FCP, they show on the lower R of QT. But when importing the movie into iDVD (haven't tried DVDSP yet) they do not show. My preferences indicates to ask about importing the markers - which it doesn't. And I tried import markers- which it didn't. So1) Any thoughts on what this issue is and 2) how do I change the chapter poster frame for a chapter marker within DVDSP?

  • My Iphoto library has recently updtaed itself with a same picture icon for every event. I backed up all my photos and deleted all the events in the library. When I imported  a fresh batch of pictures the same picture appeared as the key photo. Help

    Hi,
    My i photo events in the library have updated themselves with a key photo. I really do not want this picture as a key photo on every event.
    I backed up and deleted my entire library. After importing a fresh event, the key photo still remained the same. How can I stop that. 

    Sorry to ask but since we onlhy have words to comunicate with here using them correctly is critical
    iPhoto is an application and lives in your Applications folder
    Your photos are in a database which by default is names iPhoto library and is in your pictures folder
    I still have Iphoto on my computer.
    Is this the application of the intact non-functioning liPhoto library?
    I have copied all the pictures on a USB so I wont loose any data.
    exactly how did you do this?
    Then I deleted all the pictures.
    and exactly how did you do this?
    Have you done this?
    If so what were the results?
    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - rebuild your thumbnails (you may need to do several times)

  • Podcast with wrong pictures

    When I play a podcast some of them have the wrong picture/icon with them. Others are fine. Also earlier today when I would play one it would just go back to previous menu. some of these had the blue ball in front and I know they have not been played before. Well I synced and again and that went away but the artwork/pictures are still messed up on some. Oh yes they show fine in iTunes 7.

    The Blue Ball means they have not been played before.
    For the album art, make sure it is correct in iTunes.
    If it is, try the steps listed here (these steps help with this issue too)...
    btabz: My songs have artwork in iTunes, but it won't transfer to my iPod!
    Know that some preferences are in different locations if you are using iTunes 7 (the iPod preferences come up when the iPod is connected and selected in iTunes, there is no need to go into iTunes preferences).

    When I search for solutions, I find several references to the backup feature of Norton 360. There also were references to MozyHome and McAfee.

    HI,
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Appearance tab. Tick the box next to: Display images when the page opens.
    If that box is already ticked, from the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems loading images, go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
    Make sure Safari is not running in Rosetta. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle so it faces down. Where you see Open using Rosetta... make sure that is NOT selected.
    If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

  • Export chapter marker for WMV file or print a chapter marker list?

    Is there any way to ether export chapter markers to a wmv file, or to print a chapter marker list from FCP?

    It's strictly a QT function, AFAICT, moving marker files from one QT app to another. Could be wrong, though, so I hope you get better advice later today.
    Does WMV even support markers? I haven't seen the ability in any of my references but I haven't actually gone searching for it.

  • Icons for news feeds no longer load.  Also, I can no longer see the pictures in google news.  Any thoughts?

    I can't see the icons for my news links any more and when I click into the Google news list, pictures for the article list don't load.  Any thoughts?

    Try emptying the Safari cache more often. From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache
    If that doesn't help, try resetting. From the menu bar again, click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes then click Reset.
    BTW... it would help to tell us which Mac OS X you have installed and in this case, which version of Safari.

  • I've made a new icon for a folder, using icon composer. But when I add it to the folder in the icon spot, it changes instead to the generic picture icon with "icns" on it. How do I make sure the picture actually changes to what I want?

    So I took a picture of a generic mac osx snow leopard folder (png), layered a picture of a movie reel onto it (png) using the application Gimp, then saved this complete picture as a png. I then took this picture and dragged it into Icon Composer & from there saved the new icon as an icns file. Next, I selected this new icns file, copied it, went into the "Get Info" part for the folder I want, clicked on the little icon in the top left corner, and selected Paste in the Edit menu. The icon did change, but it changed to the generic Preview icon with the letters "icns" across the bottom. Why isn't it changing to the actual picture I made? And how can I fix this or make sure I do get the result I want?
    FYI: I have done this EXACT SAME process with other icons I've created, and in the past it has worked fine and changed the icon to the picture that I made. But today it's done this twice, with two different pictures/icons and in different folders.

    Did you open the image in Preview? Then make sure you are actually selecting and copying the open image? You can check by going to Finder->Edit->Show Clipboard to see if the image is actually on the Clipboard. Now do GetInfo on the folder you want to have the image, select the wee little icon at the top (make sure it really is selected, the faint blue halo is hard to see) and then Paste. You MUST have permissions to write to the folder! Otherwise nothing will happen. Does the "Sharing and Permissions" section of the GetInfo window, down at the bottom, show your shortname as owner, with Read & Write permission?

  • Mountain Lion doesn't display Finder preview icons for .ARW files? (RAW pictures taken with SONY cameras)

    This is something that I find rather ridiculous, and have a hard time believing no-one at Apple has addressed yet.
    Basically the problem is that neither Mountain Lion nor Lion show Finder thumbnail preview images for pictures that are taken with SONY digital cameras.
    This is something that Snow Leopard, as well as multiple earlier iterations of OS X used to do without any problem. The professional photographer community who uses SONY professional DSLR cameras is up in arms about this. And we've all been crossing our fingers that perhaps the Mac OS X 10.7.1, 10.7.2, 10.7.3, 10.7.4, or possibly the 10.8 update would fix this issue for us.
    Several of us have filed bug reports over the past year or two. See this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3213982?tstart=0 
    This is a flaw in Apple's operating system. Especially considering that there are supposedly 200+ "new features" which were just released in Mountain Lion.
    Those of us who work with SONY cameras every day would probably have paid the $19.99 upgrade price for just one "feature". And not even a new one. An old one. The ability to see our pictures in the Finder. Pretty basic stuff.
    Hopefully someone fixes this for us with the release of Mac OS X 10.8.1
    Please. And thank you.

    I can see image icons for all my pre-MtLion images.  These are the folder images (Icons), and all the photo images (icons) on all my hard drives.  IE If I have a folder of 300 wedding pictures, they all show the picture image above the file name in the icon view.  So if I want to open a picture of the "Flower Girl" I can see the image (icon) of the Flower Girl.  Without the image showing all I see is the filename...  Smith-212.tif.  Now with Mt. Lion I CAN'T see any IMAGES (ICONS) on any of the 300 photos.  Just the file names in all the different views.... Icon View, List VIew, etc.  If I have a Folder with 23 more folders inside, they don't even show up either.  I saw a step by step process of selecting the file and right clicking on it and opening it in Preview, then doing a copy and then pasting it on the original image in tghe get info window.  WHAT A PURE PAIN TO HAVE TO DO THIS TO 170,375 IMAGES.
    The other issue I have is that 93.5 % of the remaining icons that do exist on my system is that those 93.5 % are so pixelated they appear as a hugh checkerboard viewed through two inch thick glasses..... not for drinking, but the kinda glasses used by a blind man.  IE the remaining icons are so PIXELATED it is almost impossible to tell what they  are.
    BEN WELLAND...... What did you do to get this point? 
    Thank you, thank you, thank you, to whomever at Apple finally fixed this.
    After updating to Mountain Lion 10.8.2, SONY .ARW files (and I'm assuming Pentax .PEF files too) now render proper thumbnail icons in the Finder in list view, icon view, coverflow view, and columns view.
    Since this is now a recognized bug, I'm guessing that the free update to Lion (10.7.5) that Apple also just released yesterday (September 19th, 2012) will probably fix this issue too.
    Hooray!
    I have OS 10.8.2  and nothing has changed as far as being able to see photos / folders as image icons...
    rendered  proper thumbnail icons.
    I have thousands of photo files that show nothing other that the file names.
    The only way I can even see the file is to open it in Photoshop, or open the folder in Bridge. Even then after I open it in PS CS6, and save it again. It still is a "Empty" file...... no render proper thumbnail.

    Any help will be appreciated.

    welcome andew to the  boards ...
    you want a 'station bug', a pic-in-pic effect, right?
    actually not supported by iM, so you need a 3rd party plug-in to teach iM the new trick .. have a look at

    or, in case, you own QTpro, you can add a grafic to a dv-stream with that ..

  • FCP Chapter Marker Limit for iDVD (muxing error)?

    I'm attempting to create disc images in iDVD 7.0.3 for a 2 DVD set created in FCP 4.5. I've exported QT movies with chapter markers for both of my Disc A and Disc B projects. Disc A (1 hr 56 min and 16 chapters) writes just fine to disc image but Disc B (1 hr 40 min and 32 chapters) has given me fits for days, continually leading to "Muxing preparation (project conversion) error". I've tried a number of attempts at fixes per the forums to no avail (checking the placement of my chapter markers, avoiding special characters in marker names, etc.) I've even tried killing the "Scene Selection" menu. Is there a chapter marker limit in iDVD then? Have I really exceeded this with 32? I ask this for my latest test this morning in which I split the Disc B project into two (evenly splitting the content as well as # of chapters between test B-1 and B-2 projects) led to successful creation of disc images for both. However, I want to put the two back together again. Please help. Thank you.

    Yes, I've heard that you should have either 15GB or 25GB free on your internal boot drive. I have 17GB available. Incidentally, my iDVD project files and disc images are being written to other drives attached to my system. I don't think this is the issue though since I've been operating in this environment for some time and have mastered a 2-DVD set a couple of months ago (2 hours on each disc) with no issues. I have even created another disc image of my 2 hour Disc A (to fix some editorial changes) with no issues. It's when it comes time to burn a DVD or write a disc image of my Disc B when it becomes an issue. Specifically, did you get the "there was an error during muxing preparation project conversion" error message then? Thanks.
