Would Back up in Zip be better placed as an option in the Publish options? Back up to Zip All your presentation content saved in one place

I never considered that approach, good idea

My experience is that you would never know it was cloud based, because it works faster than many other filters I’ve used. Is there an issue I’ve not noticed? It’s made no difference to me at all. Photoglory would not be less expensive to those who are users of Photoshop, because the Neural filters are a free addition.

I don’t know if this has any interest, colour used here in Infrared, but it works just as well on standard Black and Whits too

I have more on YouTube and my site, but I only posted the PTE ones here, that’s why you may notice some gaps in the numbers. I’ve discovered that they are actually quite tricky to make and keep short, with PTE ones being the hardest. I had a hunch, the short sharp videos may be popular, so thanks for the encouragement

Try another sound file not created in audition. If it works as expected, you have your culprit

I agree

Targa Here’s a radical idea. Make your own mind up, you can’t create AV via a committee. Whatever you ask, you’ll get some for it and some against. Create what you like and watch it yourself a dozen times (or more) before you publish it. You’ll soon get a feel for what works and what doesn’t.

Just to give you some support JJ. I have NEVER had any need or desire to use global times in the O&A screen I adjust it to display the slide time I’m working on and that’s where it stays. I’m sure there will be times when it’s an advantage, but I’ve never had the need.

What is the best image size for Audio Visual
Barry Beckham replied to Barry Beckham's topic in Tutorials & Video Lessons
Ernest. The images from your camera are around 4K in size, so you don’t really need to change their size at all really. Also forget PPI. If you take your 3965 * 2478 pixels and reduce PPI to 100, then your image size is 1322 pixels on the long side and it’s no wonder your seeing unacceptable results. If you must resize the images at all, ignore the Pixels Per Inch and adjust to 2304 * 1296. That gives you a HD size plus about 20%. If your computer can handle the images from your camera, don’t downsize them at all. -
What is the best image size for Audio Visual

Kieron I haven’t sharpened images for well over 10 years either in an Image editing program and certainly not in PTE. If you have known me over the years, you’ll know my emphasis has always been on image quality and I’ve been a bit obsessive about it. I moved to Mp4 videos later than many because I was concerned about quality. However, it’s hard to tell the difference and if there is a difference between exe and MP4, 99% of viewers won’t see it. In any case, image sharpness is far more affected by top notch image editing. Colour, clarity and contrast and in my experience many amateurs need to start there. -
Road to the Scenic Rim - Where the Sunflowers Grow
Barry Beckham replied to Barry Beckham's topic in Slideshows & AV Shows
Thanks I’m glad the show is liked, because it’s pretty basic and old school in AV terms. What encourages me to pick up the gear and go out is the changeable conditions that I got here. I was aware that most sunflower pictures are against a vivid blue sky, but I only had a couple of hours at this farm. So, I had to accept the light as it was, but I thought I was lucky to get a different look with the cloudy sky. The rest of the images on the scenic rim, where again taking advantage of changeable conditions and light. These images also enabled me to get into ACR/LR masks. For those who have not looked at them yet, they are pretty good and worth investigation. I’m not a fan of the over used words game-changer, but you could apply it to masks. -

Someone asked me this question recently and I thought a video was the best way to answer. Related Topics: What are Keyframes Variable Speed Modifiers - When and How

John. I can’t see any point in you doing this. Presumably the Olympus 4/3 camera will turn in at least 2560 pixels on the long side. The full frame shots will be bigger than 2560 on the long side. Whether you are intending to make an executable file or an MP4 (recommended) you already have enough pixels to work with. Let’s say your making an MP4 Video. You upscale the 4/3 images and when you publish the MP4 as a HD video, it will downscale them. Unless I’m missing something, your chasing your tail here.

When I go in for Cataracts, I’m going to demand Canon F2.8 lenses oh yeah, with image stabilisation too

Michael I’ve already had surgery for a Macular Hole which formed in my left eye in May. It’s an age thing, where you lose vision clarity in the centre of your eye. It could have been devastating. They did a remarkable job on that, but the recovery was very difficult. A gas is placed in the eye to hold things in place and for 45 minutes of every waking hour for 5 days…………You have to be face down as though you’re looking towards the centre of the earth. The Cataracts are not big issues compared to that, so I’m looking forward to getting them done and hopefully moving on. In the meantime, thank goodness for autofocus :-)

Hello Mur I have a couple more issues to iron out. I’m having a Cataract in my left eye done on the 12th November and I’ll have the right eye Cataract done as soon as possible after that. It’s a bit of a shock when you live for 71.5 years with hardly a scratch and then the health issues all kick off together. Oh the Joys eh?

Yes, these types of YouTube channels are now my mainstay entertainment. I haven’t sat in our TV room for months and even cancelled my satellite TV account. I prefer these real world YouTube videos that those super slick TV ones of old. Narrow boating in the UK, Remote bush walking in Australia and others. All great entertainment, made by ordinary folk.
