 |
|
I'm am using Adobe Photoshop CS 2 on a 2.33 gHz Intel Core 2 Duo Mac Book Pro, running OSX 10.4.11.
So here's my situation. I'm editing a music video. I'm editing with Final Cut Pro, but I want to use filters from Photoshop. So I export every frames of my video in JPEG format and I add effects to each frame using Photoshop. I created an action to apply the CUTOUT filter on all my frames using batch automation. But here is my problem : everytime I start the process, the JPEG Options dialog opens up. I need to click "OK" on each frame for it to save to JPEG ! It seems the "Ok" to that dialog cannot be recorded by Photoshop's actions... Am I doing something wrong ? Is there a way I could automate this dialog so that I don't have to click "OK" for every single one of the 7000 frames I'm working on ?
Thank you very much! |

Yeah there's a few things you could try, depending on how your frames are set up-
1. Try flattening the image before saving it. Include this as a step in your action.
2. Try using the Save for Web command instead of Save As.
3 In the batch dialogue box, turn on the "Override action save as command" and use a different naming convention. Leave the original save step in the action though.
Hope this helps
