    The speed values you provided represent a keyframe’s influence over the animation’s easing. In the case of the position animation, the keyframe’s easing has an inInfluence of 100 and an outInfluence of 100, while the opacity animation has an inInfluence of 100 and an outInfluence of 86 for the first keyframe and 77 for the second keyframe. These values represent the amount of influence the keyframe has on the animation’s easing at the beginning and end of the animation, respectively.

    The speed values themselves represent the rate at which the animation’s easing changes over time. The speed values of 904.630451660156 and 809.959822998047 for the position animation and 86 and 77 for the opacity animation are both in units of “frame percentage” (i.e., a value between 0 and 1 representing the fraction of the total number of frames that have elapsed). These values are determined by the frame length and the total duration of the animation, and they can be converted to different units (e.g., seconds) using basic mathematical calculations.

    To convert the speed values to units other than frame percentages, you would need to know the total number of frames in the animation and the duration of the animation in that unit (e.g., seconds). You can then use the speed values to calculate the animation’s easing at specific times during the animation.

    For example, to convert the position animation’s speed value of 904.630451660156 to seconds, you would follow these steps:

    1. Convert the total duration of the animation to seconds by multiplying it by the frame rate. For example, if the animation has a duration of 5 seconds and a frame rate of 25 fps, you would have a total duration of (5 * 25) = 125 frames.
    2. Divide the speed value by the total duration of the animation to get the speed value in seconds. In this case, the speed value would be (904.630451660156 / 125) = 7.23307788.
    3. Use the speed value in seconds to calculate the animation’s easing at any specific
  • Yeah it is possible to directly import an image into the After Effects Timeline using a script. Here is one example using the JavaScript API:

    // Set the path to the image file

    var imageFilePath = “my_picture.jpg”;

    // Create a new After Effects comp

    var comp = new Comp(“my_comp”);

    // Define the size of the comp to match the dimensions of the image

    var width = 1600;

    var height = 1200;

    var compSize = [width, height];

    // Import the image using the File.importFile() method

    var layer = comp.addLayer(“My Image Layer”);

    var importResults = layer.file.importFile(imageFilePath);

    // Add the layer to the topmost layer of the timeline

    layer.move(comp.numLayers – 1);

    // Set the duration of the comp to match the duration of the image

    comp.duration = importResults.duration;

    // Write the comp to disk

    var filePath = “my_comp.aep”;

    comp.saveAs(filePath);

    This script above creates a new composition, imports the image file from a specific path, adds the imported layer to the topmost layer of the timeline and also sets the duration of the comp to match the duration of the image. Then it exports the comp into a new .aep file. Note that you’ll need to have the File.importFile() method installed in order for this script to work properly.

    Hope that this helps and if you have any other questions, feel free to ask! 🙂

  • Seems the issue can be related to Lightroom’s Develop module, try the following to see if it helps:

    1.) Check to make sure your Lightroom is up to date in the latest version. Perhaps certain plugins and files within the app is not working properly as intended. Updates usually fixes the issue.

    2.) Clear the Lightroom cache to improve performance. In order to clear the cache, go to: Edit > Preferences > Performance (Windows) or Lightroom > Preferences > Performance (Mac), and then click the Clear Settings button.

    3.) Disable hardware acceleration which can cause some issues with Graphics cards. In order to do this, go to: Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts > Camera Raw > View > Toggle Hardware Acceleration

    And I am aware you already tried uninstalling and reinstalling Lightroom, but if you tried the 3 solutions that I suggested and still does not work, you can try it once more to see if the issue is finally fixed. If none of them works for you, I suggest contacting Adobe’s Customer support for more info on this issue. Hope this works for you and good luck!

  • Sounds like you wish to do an animation like text line where whatever you say at that exact moment, the word appears on screen pretty big so anyone can see it right? There is a full on tutorial I found online that may be able to help you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVliDoNgoCg It gives very well in details on how each elements work with the sourceRectAtTime() coding which you can customize it to your liking! Hope this helps!

  • May I see like an image or video example of exactly what you would like to achieve with that? Then I can see how I can give you some tips on this. I have over 10 years of experience with Sony Vegas so I am sure I can give you some more tips with a bit more understanding on it! 🙂 With the computer specs you have, I am sure you can achieve it!

    May 8, 2024 at 4:07 pm in reply to: How to find all my 16 bit images

    So you are looking for a program that will automatically help you find which files are 16 bits right? I will see what I can find since not sure if there is a specific app that will help find which are 16 bits. I’ll do some research and see if I can find anything. But going forward, if you get new Tiff files that you know if its 16 bits and 8 bits, you can start seperating them in folders so you know which are 16 bits and which are 8 bits images.

  • From my experience, sometimes I had issues when I closed the program, for some reason, the processes are still open as well and I would have to check if Photoshop and Premiere Pro processes are still open cause if so, it may still contain the error. Have you tried restarting your computer as well and seeing if that process still hangs. Usually the processes would not be opened. Let me know how it goes and if you can screenshot what you find too, I can help better.

    Answered the question for you similiarity in this link: https://creativecow.net/forums/thread/anyone-having-issues-with-background-process-not-shutting-down/ Since they seem to be the same question from the same person, you 🙂

    May 8, 2024 at 2:44 pm in reply to: How To Delete New Schema?

    Its possible the XML file you are referring to is PremierePro.xml, am I correct?

    This should be found under the file: PremierePro/Catalog/SavedVectors , I imagine the Premiere Pro folder should be under the C Drive.

    In order to remove the label, you will need to follow these steps and see if it works for you:

    1. Backup your PremierePro.xml file.
    2. Open the PremierePro.xml file in a text editor (such as Notepad or Sublime Text).
    3. Find the label you want to remove and delete the corresponding XML tag.
    4. Save the PremierePro.xml file.
    5. Re-open Premiere Pro and the label should be gone.

    Keep in mind that backing up your PremierePro.xml is essential before you make any changes just incase since it contains very important data like your workspaces, preferences and catalog settings.

    If you still have issues, you can close Premiere Pro and then press and hold the ALT key (Windows) or Option Key (Mac), then double click to re open Premiere Pro! It will launch without the access to your preferences and such. Then you can close Premiere Pro again and re open it normally. Hopefully that works out for you!

  • Ohh I remember this somewhat happening to me before as well when my Photoshop or Vegas Pro hangs and you cannot close it by normal means. I usually would need to go to Task Manager and click End Task to the programs that are hanging along with their processes that can be found below. Try doing that and see if you are able to close them all. Sometimes it may take time before you can make changes or delete the files that were in use in that project file. It can get frusturating but should not last forever. Hope it helps!
