Dougall Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I have a number of images 'grabbed' from a video and would like to show them in PTE in QUICK succession to simulate movement. Is it possible please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lin Evans Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 I have a number of images 'grabbed' from a video and would like to show them in PTE in QUICK succession to simulate movement. Is it possible please?Yes, just make sure that the file sizes are amenable with your hardware for quick display. I would suggest no larger than 1024x768 or perhaps even 800x600. You haven't said which version of P2E you are using, but display them with minimal between slide time and with no effects and you should get decent movement assuming you have adjacent frames. I used the non-beta P2E to demonstrate zoom, etc., in the past by resizing images and displaying them in a progressive sequence. This worked quite well but did take some time to orchestrate. There is no reason why you can't do this subject to your hardware limitations.Best regards,Lin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I can't get less than one second between frames resulting in 'jerky' movement (effects are off). Any further suggestions?Kind regards,Dougall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to Project Options/Main and set the time for each slide to zero (on the left) and 2 ms on the right. Next set up each individual slide in "Customize Slide/Main" to zero and 2ms. Be sure to set no effect, quick transition.Here is a link to a quick executable set up that way. These are not sequential, just random 1024x768 images at about 500K each......

ford Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 would like to show them in PTE in QUICK succession to simulate movement. Is it possible please?yes it can be done ''only'' in pte v 4.48 as there is no '' quick'' transition effect in v 5.5 betawill do one for you to see - fill a glass with water images + 2 for setting in pte use pause & arrows to see images one at a time press ' esc.'' or ''X''to stopimage quality not great it's just a quick demoall best web site http://www.wpg.pro.ie for download size 1.72mbp/s Igor,can you put '' quick'' transition effect in next beta 5great job Igor and team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alrobin Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 yes it can be done ''only'' in pte v 4.48 as there is no '' quick'' transition effect in v 5.5 beta Yes, the "quick" transition is now available in beta 5 under "Customize slide". Igor, I think you forgot to add it to Project Options, too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Igor, I think you forgot to add it to Project Options, too?No, we did it specially to make more reliable code of effects. Because if allows Quick transition in global effects, a duration of transition effect will vary (because this effect has no duration at all).But if you need to globally set Quick transition for all slides, just uncheck "Enable transition effects" option.

alrobin Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Igor, that should work fine - thanks for the tip.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 Al yes it's where you said in "Customize slide". Igoryes it works project options - main - set 0 sec & 200ms effect - uncheck "Enable transition effects" option. Al & Igorthank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
