Best way to change speed of clips

Hey, I want to change speed of clips, both faster and slower in one clip. What is the best way to do that preserving the quality? I am still learning FCP so my apologies, and I had a hard time finding anything on here through search.

Jerry's right...
Take a look at this:
http://homepage.mac.com/captmench/SlowMo3.mov
Two frames each of FCP and Shake at 50%. Use your arrow keys to go frame by frame. First frame is normal, second is interpolated. Look at the background!!
Creative cow should have the whole tutorial online soon... I'll post back with the link when they do.
Also, for time remap -- shake's got that under control too... but for now, look at this:

Good luck,

Best way to change the speed of a sequence of linked short clips?

I have a sequenced project of about 150 short 1 second clips linked together via a crossfade transition... I would like to make the timelapse faster. What is the best way to change the speed of the sequence or the clips themselves? I would rather change the sequence for it would be less labor intensive I would imagine!!
Thanks
RD

Or...select all the clips in the timeline, control-click (or right-click) on them and select 'Duration'. Change the duration to whatever will fit/fill the timespan you need, then hit OK.
If you're needing to change the dissolve as well, you should remove all but one of them first, then drag the remaining transition into the browser. Dbl-click it into the viewer, set the duration of what you want, then use the hand icon at top right and drag it back into the browser. Rename it relevent to it's new duration, then control-click on it and select "Make Default".
Now, set an inpoint at the first frame of your clips in the timeline, then drag all the shortened clips from the timeline into the canvas and release where it says 'Overwrite with Transition'.
That's another way to accomplish this.

Newbie Quesion: Best way to change colour of a movie

Hi,
Could someone tell me the best way to change the colour of
one element of a
movieclip in AS2?
Say for example I had a filled white circle in the middle of
a black square,
how can I change just the colour of the circle?
I have tried this.myColor.setRGB( color ); but that sets the
entire clip to
be of one colour. Do I need ( as I suspect ) one clip on top
of another or
is there any way of keeping details of the clip being
changed?
TIA
Wil

Cheers jdh,
This is one method I'd considered.
I'll give it a bash.

Best way to change fund posted in an EBS document

What is the best way to change the fund in one line item in a document produced when the electronic bank statment is processed? The bank charges fees that come through the statement and should post to a different fund then any other item such as checks, etc.
I am trying a substitution but coming across the error Field COBL-KOSTL. does not exist in the screen SAPLKACB 0002.

The error message that I was receiving...Field COBL-KOSTL. does not exist in the screen SAPLKACB 0002, was coming from function module EXIT_RFEBBU10_001 and include ZXF01U01. The programming code was attempting to default a cost center when the external transaction code = 661. The coding was removed and the default acct assignment cost center was added to the cost element master data. The substitution also worked correctly as it should.

Best way to change partition key on existing table

Hi,
Using Oracle 11.20.3 on AIX.
We have a table about 800 million rows and 120gb in size.
Want to try copies oif this table to evalaute different partitiong strategies.
What is the quickest way to do this?
Would have liked say datapump table 1 tro disk and datapumo import the data to new table but do the tables need to be of the same format.
Thanks

First your subject asks a different question that the text you posted: Best way to change partition key on existing table. The answer to that question is YOU CAN'T. All data has to be moved to change the partition key since each partition/subpartition is in its own segment. You either create a new table or use DBMS_REDEFINITION to redefine the table online.
Why do you want to export all data to a file first? That just adds to the time and cost of doing the op.
What problem are you trying to use partitioning to solve? Performance? Data maintenance? For performance the appropriate partitioning key and whether to use subpartitions depends on the types of queries and the query predicates you typically use as well as the columns that may be suitable for partition keys.
For maintenance a common method is to partition on a date by year/month/day so you can more easily load new daily/weekly/monthly data into its own partition or drop old data that no longer needs to be kept online.
You should use a small subset of the data when testing your partitionings strategies.
Can you do the partitioning offline in an outage window? If not then using the DBMS_REDEFINITION is your only option.
Without knowing what you are trying to accomplish only general advice can be given. You even mentioned that you might want to use a different set of columns than the curren table has.
A standard heap table uses ONE segment for its data (ignoring possible LOB segments). A partitioned/subpartitioned table uses ONE segment for each partition/subpartition. This means that ALL data must be moved to partition the table (unless you are only creating one partition).
This means that every partitioning scheme that uses a different partition key requires ALL data to be moved again for that test.
Provide some information about what problem you are trying to solve.
>
Is this quicker than datapump?
>
Yes - exporting the data simplying moves it all an additional time. Ok to export if you need a backup before you start.
>
Found artcle which talks about using merge option on datapump import to convert partitioned table to non-partitioned table.

How would that apply to you? That isn't what you said you wanted to do.

Best Way to Change Source System Client

We initially had a ECC source client for BI as 35. But over time, we suffered with good test data because the ECC team use client 15 and not 35. We want to change BI 7 to use client 15. I have created a new source system in RSA1 for Client 15 but when I try to delete client 35 and /or change the source client on a datasource, all the data mappings are deleted!
I would really appreciate any advice or information on the best way to change the source R3 client for Bi without losing data mappings. Point awarded and much respect
Warm regards
Lee Lewis

Hi,
Yes. There is a way to change the source system without deleting the old system. Please use the T.code BDLS and for more information refer the below link
Re: Changing a Source System.
OSS note 886102 will also give more information about this.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.

Best way to change config then change it back after a while.

I spent some time today trying a couple approaches to this, but they all seemed a little klunky.
I'm looking for the best way to change the BGP prefixes which are advertised out to an ISP, based on some check. I want to set a timeout so the router won't attempt to send the route again for say 30 minutes after it is triggered, but then will start advertising it again, and monitor to see if the trigger condition returns. If the trigger condition returns then again withdrawl the route for 30 minutes and so on.
I'm using a prefix-list already to limit outbound route advertisments, so it seems simplest to just make a config change to remove one line in the prefix-list, then a few minutes later put it back.
I tried just using the "cli command wait", but if I set the wait period too long, the applet seemed to die, and never ran the later cli commands to put the prefix-list line back. There is also a exit-time clause for the event, but I couldn't figure out how to put the line back after the exit-time expired. Lastly I tried doing an event with a watchdog timer, but also couldn't get that to work either. Before I spend too much time working on differant options, I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations.
I've done some TCL scripting on Cisco routers, but that seemed to be overkill for this, and I wanted to keep the config easy to manage for peers who might not be as proficient in TCL scripting.
This is intended for ASR-1002X routers if it matters.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Derek

Thanks for all your help Joe.
Ok, so here is my current script, which seems to be working pretty well (changing to entry-type "value" fixed the variability in detection times). For testing in the script below, I'm using a 30 second timeout for when the line gets put back, and a 60 second timeout for when monitoring should resume after the event is triggered. The script checks the value of the OID every 5 seconds.
The only other thing I would like to do with it that I can't figure out, is how to use an environment variable for the exit-time. Ideally, I would just add a value, like 10 seconds, to the ATimeout variable. However I can't figure out the syntax to just use a var for the exit-time. Anyone know the secret (or if it is possible?)

Best way to change workstation

What is the best way to change the workstation name and import it into

We constantly have user change computer name. Most of the time when we
change the computer name it takes day to reflect on the edirectory. When
rename the workstation object, we cannot even remote to the workstation.
I have problem remote to through user name, I keep getting user does login
when in fact the user is login. We have netware 6.5 with the latest

Best way to change TreeMap value?

Hello,
I am wondering what is the best way to change a value in a TreeMap? I have retrieved a value by .get on the key i.e.
String aString = (TreeMap) aTreeMap.get(aKey);but would now like to change aString and ?.put? it back into the map?
How would I do this?
Thank you,
Poot.

but would now like to change aString and ?.put? it
back into the map?Do I just have to keep a note on the (key,value) - especially key - change the value and then .put(key,value) back in? Though I'll need to remove the initial pairing if I do this since TreeMap won't allow duplicate keys!
There must be an easier way as this.
Thank you for your reply,
Regards,
Poot.

Best way to deal with AVI clips taken with stills cam?

we have a nikon S70 consumer camera which also takes video clips; these clips are .AVI format.
I thought it would be smart to convert them to QT format, but a 1.5GB clip became a 38-GB monster!
What would be the best way to get these .avi clips into my FC Studio workflow so that I can edit, color correct, etc., so that I can burn them to DVD?
this little cam offers several video formats, like HD (720) and a couple of formats it calls "TV" which appear to be 640x480...at least some of them are those dims.
thanks!
rc

Like the ubiquitous QuickTime .mov file type, AVI is just a wrapper or container; the video contained within could be made from any number of codecs.
Convert the AVI files to the codec that will match your FCP Sequence settings - prior to importing it into your FCP project.

Quickest way to change speed but not clip duration

I'm trying to determine the fastest method for changing the speed
of a clip already in the timeline, but not the clips duration. Primarily, slowing a clip down.
The best I've come up with so far is to put the timeline playhead over the
clip and hit X to get the clips IN and OUT points placed in the timeline. Then,
drag the clip into the Browser, effectively making a copy of it there. Then bring the clip into the Viewer, then hit APPLE J to bring up the speed change window, affect the change, then overwrite the change you've made in the viewer back down into the timeline where you placed the original IN and OUTS. Seems like alot of step.
Is there a faster way? Any change I try to make in the timeline itself results
in a clip duration change. The only other way I've found it to use the time remap tool put that is even more complicated and is alot less exact when trying to make something, say, 50% slower.
Any input would be appreciated.

Another, close but not quite there method I've tried is the TIME REMAP tool
that lives with the SLIP AND SLIDE.
I can affect speed changes, and see what percentage speed change I'm
trying to make, but it wants to change speed on both the left and right side
of the clip. In other words, I can't place the timeline playhead or Time remap tool at the beginning or end of the clip and only effect the speed of the entire
clip unless there is no clip adjacent to the clip I'm trying to change.
Otherwise it changes the speed as I want for 99% of the clip and then during
the last several frames I've accidentally sped up up those frames. I can't position it to just change the speed for the entire clip.

Any way to change speed of a clip in "over-write edit" mode?

I want to change the speed of a clip in the timeline without having to lock all the other tracks or having to move the other following clips out of sync. For example I have a clip which lasts for 1 sec, which I want to change to 3 secs. Normally when I do this in the timeline the other clips on the same video tracks which follows, will move their position..... How to change speed in "over-write edit mode"?

I think it's even easier to just match frame the "source file"... put your playhead on the clip you want to speed change in your sequence. Then type optioncmdf. Perform the speed change in the Viewer, then simply cut it in... Might help to put it up above the older, use the double arrow selection tool facing right to move the clips past this change later... pull the upper track speed changed clip down over the old, and viola.
Gotta say though, it's a lot easier to perform the speed change in the Viewer, and edit it all in as you go rather than doing it after you've put the clip in a sequence. (not always possible to determine what the speed change should be maybe, but sure easier.... FCP 7 handles this problem a lot better for sure, and worth the upgrade price if your machine is compatible.

Way to change speed of entire Project easily?

Hi, I know how to change the speed of an individual clip in the timeline - but is there an easy way to change the entire speed of the project? Thanks.

Hi, thanks guys - that worked - although it seems when I change the speed of the nested sequence and export it the quality is quite a bit worse (exporting it with the same settings) - seems to be a lot of jagged edges now. Is there something in the 'Change Speed' window that should be changed? I am creating a sequence and doubling the speed and another sequence exported with 4 times the speed. What is checked in the Change Speed window is 'Frame Blending' and 'Scale Attributes' (the default settings). Any ideas how to get rid of the 'jaggedness' that is being created? (this file was originally a .dv file - a regular export to quicktime from regular speed sequence looks fine. Thanks.

Changing Speed of clip in timeline in a specific wqay

I realize there are a variety of ways of affecting
a change to the speed of a clip already in the timeline,
but I'm trying to figure out how to do it in one very specific way:
If I have 3 clips (A,B,C) and I want to change the speed
of B so that it is slower, but not expand the clip from
it's original length (meaning it will still occupy the
same spot, duration and length in the timeline), is there a way of accomplishing that just by punching a specific figure
in somewhere (i.e. make it move at 50%).
I know about fit-to-fill, time remap, right clicking a clip
and changing speed. However, I don't want the clip to
expand past it's spot in the timeline, just play slower in the spot it occupies.
The closest I've come is going into the time remap tool and lowering the end keyframe so it moves slower, but this is
imprecise. I want to be able to punch in 50%, or 60% somewhere and have it take, without expanding. The time remap tool won't let me punch in 50%, although that indicator moves when I drop the ending keyframe down a little.
Can what I'm describing be done, and if so, how? Thanks.

Match frame back to the original media. Slow it down, then cut it back in.
You cannot slow down the clip in the timeline without it expanding. You are telling FCP to take the existing clip and make it longer...of course it will expand in size. It doesn't know that you don't want it to do that. It assumes (rightly so) that you want the clip, with the IN and OUT points you designated, to be slower. Keeping it in the same spot on the timeline means cutting off the head or tail of the clip...losing points you told FCP you wanted.
Simple to just load the clip into the viewer, slow it down to the speed you want, then cut it in.

I have an iphone4s and my two daughters have an iPod each. They both have used my apple id. How is the best way to change our their ids as I have been told we all need separate ids to be able to message each

I have an iPhone and my two daughters both have iPods. They both use my apple Id and I would like to change their Id. . How is the best way to do this? My younger daughter had her iPod only last week and when she set it up, she ended up with all my phone contacts on Her iPod. If I change her apple Id will this remove the contacts from her iPod and leave mine intact on my phone?
