FCP project creation date

Hi all,
1 have an installation with three MDC Xserves (10.6.2) ,8 Mac Pro clients ( 10.5.8 ) with XSAN 2.2.1 and Open Directory .
The MAC pro clients have Final Cut Pro 6.0.6 installed.
When we modify a project in FCP and save it then the creation date of the file changes to the modification date. This behavior happens only in the XSAN volumes and only for the FCP projects, if we create a text file , edit it and then save it the modification date changes but the creation date is not affected .
Thanks in advance.

Hi Uday,      
Thanks for your post.
It seems the created date not stored in Project object in TFS API. To get team project created date automatically, you can query the date from
[Tfs_DefaultCollection].[dbo].[tbl_projects]
table>> [last_update]field use coding.

    Hello Margaret,
    How are you downloading the pictures?
    If you plug your camera to the computer and use the camera's software or iPhoto, it would add the created date to your picture. I you use a card reader, I'm afraid it would not, unless you use iPhoto with the card reader.

  • How can I sort clips by creation date in the project window?

    Trying to find a way to sort clips by creation date in project window, but can't seem to find an option for it. Is it possible?

    im using windows pc.. and a program called 'renamer' which is kinda tricky but free and easy once you figure out how to use it... if you know dos filename conventions and wildcards its easier to figure out.. add rules etc... no clue if this program is avail if you have mac...
    but put all files into a temp folder... use the renamer program.. it will write new names to the same folder.. then move all your files where you want to keep them and delete the temp one...
    if you want more info I'll chk back here..
    the main thing is that you can add prefix to filenames to keep track of what you shot when and ingested ... scenes etc .. or you can replace the sort order by just putting in a number or letter in filename that makes it sort the way you want...
    good luck

  • CF data file missing on FCP project files

    Every time I open a saved project file on Final Cut Pro, it says CF data file missing on my FCP project files. Files seem to be in constant frames folder but all black and not highlighting. suggestions?
    I was saving things on a MyBook studio external HD. I think earlier as I was working or saving on the external HD it disconnected.
    But shouldn't it have all my files still?
    I still see all my project files and capture scratches.
    Any help or suggestions please?
    Final Cut Pro 7.0.3

    processor 2.4 GHZ Intel Core i7
    Memory 4GB 1333 Mhz DDR3

    Hi Michael,
    When I opened the FCP project. It says " CF data file missing CF+ filename here"
    So I looked in my Render Files> Constant Frames folder and the files are in there. I tried to open the movie files and play them. When played, they all play back a black screen/nothing in the file? And some have a blue screen that says" unrendered".
    So I try to search for the file to connect it back to the project, but when I go to th folder and try to select it. It isn't highlighted, so I can't select it. So they aren't missing.
    So I have to press cancel. It seems like I'm not able to edit or work on the FCP project until I have those files connected.
    Thanks for your reply,

  • Archiving in H264 while keeping folders/file creation date

    *Hi, I just wanted to share with you a script that helps to convert the content of the FCP "capture scratch" folder into H264, to move the converted files into a Device, put the h264 files in the correct client folder.*
    *Into this client folder, it creates folders with the original production name, while it keeps the original creation file date.*
    *So it keeps the original folder hierarchy and date for my archives, because to browse with the final cut server client is great, but sometimes you just want navigate in your file system to work with your videos.*
    *STEP 1* : Original Assets Cataloging (production scan)
    I have a Scheduled Production scan of my "capture scratch",
    (Capture scratch is on our SAN, so all Edit suites are capturing in the same "capture scratch" folder)
    *STEP 2*: Detect to which client the asset belongs to (thanks to the location name) and set the proper [Owner ]metadata asset
    NB: for that I ask all editors to put the name of the client at the beginning of the name of their FCP projects. ex CBS_snow in paris.fcp
    I have Subscriptions that filters created assets location to see if the location "begins with" the client name, then give a "response" that set the correct [Owner] metadata, and also change the "statut" to "WAITINGFORENCODE" (you have to create it into Lookup/Status)
    So I have as many Subscriptions/Reponse as actual Clients
    *STEP 3 :* I have a subscription that filters Modified Assets that have a status of "WAITINGFORENCODE"
    then gives 3 responses.
    +Response 1:+ Set Asset Metadate Status to "ENCODING" ( yeah, Status are made for collaborating tags.. but here we are...)
    +Response 2:+ Copy in H264 (that's where Matrox is great!) into a "transcode folder"
    +Response 3+ (the tough one): Copy the transcoded asset to the right archive location and keep original creation date, create an asset and put it in the same production as the original, and set the original Asset Metatadata Status as "ENCODED"
    Run Script
    Command Path: //path to the script.
    In the command parameters you'll need to enter: [File name] [Location] [Owner] [Asset ID]
    So here is the Script. It's a LOT inspired from Andy Sykes http://fcsvoodoo.blogspot.com/2009/07/add-newly-created-asset-to-originating.htm l

    Weekness of the script is when you're converting non .MOV files (or different extension in the H264 copy than the original), I could not figure out how Andy Skypes managed with the extensions in his script, so I just pass it.
    Now it's working like a charm after I had a lot of Issues due to the escape characters, but thanks the the perl command ,it's good now. But you will still need to ask editors to avoid / and & and () in file names...
    Well, I just make it work yesterday, so now I breath cause I couldn't figure out if investing if FCS would be more a sufferance than a relieve because lot of people saying that you have to totally rethink the way you work with assets, and forget about your folder hierarchy...but this, I couldn't hear It, especially when I saw the mess that was about to happen with thousands of P2 clips.
    My conclusion would be: Metadatata is great, but folder hierarchy can save you if you loose your DB or want to migrate ...
    au revoir.

  • Sharing FCP projects between user accounts problem

    Hello!
    I'm working on a project with several other colleagues. Each of us has his own User account on the computer (dual G5 / 10.4.7) because we have different preferecnes regarding keyboard layouts, desktop colour etc. We would like to have our FCP project files accessible to each of us.
    I have tried different approaches to solve this task, but haven't fully succeded yet (I tried creating the project file within the /Users/Shared foler; putting it into a dedicated /Users/FCPProjects folder and applying chmod/chown commands; creating a Editors group with NetInfo and assigning those foders to this group; I even tried to work around this using ACLs).
    The problem is that when we click "Save All" command in FCP, we get three or four OK-only dialog boxes in a row saying "Access denied". The project file is in fact saved (I can see it by checking the Modified time in Finder), but FCP seems not to be aware of this and doesn't want to quit. It's an unpleasent situation because it allways makes us worry about losing our work.
    Could someone please give us instructions on the correct procedures for resolving the issue.
    Thank you
    Best regards
    Mato Ilijic

    matoid,
    ACLs should work for you, and it seems that they are. You shouldn't have to deal with the error dialogue either, so let's see if we can't get rid of it.
    First, let's talk about groups. I have looked at your "step by step," and I notice that you didn't bother to change the group ownership of the "shared" folder that you created. Fine, ACLs still work, but the group ownership of "wheel" might be the cause of your error messages. ACLs are a more advanced system of access controls than the older POSIX system, but POSIX still exists, and might affect your work.
    Let's assume that you have your standard users that will be using FCP placed properly into a common group. For this discussion, I'll call that group "fcpusers." Under the POSIX paradigm, any "shared" folder can be owned by any one of the users in this group, but it must have a group ownership of "fcpusers" in order to work properly for everyone. When it does, every new file or folder created in it will "inherit" that group ownership.
    Now, every user on a given machine will have read access to that shared folder. If a non-member of group "fcpusers" attempts to save a file there, however, an error message is likely to appear. One other possibility is that the file is saved, but with an "unknown" group ownership. This is because of a conflict between the groups the saving user is a member of and the attempted "inheritance" from the enclosing folder.
    I want you to try the following. Please do this exactly as I outline it:
    1) Create a new group in Netinfo Manager. Duplicate the "admin" group. Change the name of the duplicate to "fcpusers," then delete the "realname," "generateduid," and "smb_sid" properties. Change the GID to "101." Select the "users" property, then choose Directory>Insert Value. Type the short name of one of your users. Repeat this procedure for every user of FCP. Select any admin users in this group who will not be using FCP, and click the "Delete" icon. Finally, choose Domain>Save Changes.
    2) Create a new folder in /Users/Shared. For this discussion we will assume that you will call it "FCP_Data." Further, we will assume that one of your FCP users is named "usera" (your terminology ;-)). Open Terminal. Since you seem to be well-versed in the use of Terminal, I will simply post the commands needed:
    <pre style="overflow:auto; font-family: 'Monaco'; font-size: 10px">sudo chown usera:fcpusers /Users/Shared/FCP_Data
    sudo chmod g+w /Users/Shared/FCP_Data</pre>
    3) Before anyone begins saving files in this directory, make sure that their umask is changed using TinkerTool. Also, I recommend that all media gets saved here, too. I'm not sure how close FCP is to iMovie, if it doesn't save all data in a "package," but it is likely that media is being referenced using "placeholders." If this is the case, and media for a given project is scattered all over the file system, there could indeed be ownership issues. If media needs to be on externals, this same "shared" folder can be created there. Just make sure that #1, the volume has "ownership and permissions" in effect, and #2 all media is kept within the "shared" directory structure.
    You must use TinkerTool to change the umask such that members of the group have read/write permission. TinkerTool doesn't specifically say this, but the corresponding umask is "002" (the OS X default is "022"). BTW, umask is subtracted from the "full permissions" value of "666" when saving non-executable files ("777" for folders and executables).
    Once you have a properly configured "shared" folder and a proper umask in place, your users can begin to populate the shared directory. If any existing projects are to be added, they must be copied by a user into the shared directory, not simply moved. Only when a copy is made will the new copy inherit the proper group ownership. Just to be sure, I will include one more set of commands to use, once the shared directory has been populated:
    <pre style="overflow:auto; font-family: 'Monaco'; font-size: 10px">sudo chown -R usera:fcpusers /Users/Shared/FCP_Data
    sudo chmod -R g+w /Users/Shared/FCP_Data</pre>
    Please follow these instructions carefully, then report the results. This should work, and without using ACLs.
    Scott

  • Wrong risk creation date in PWA 2010

    Hey,
    We have a weird behavior in PWA 2010. The creation date of some risks in a project site is going crazy.
    Some risks are OK, but other have a creation date of 30/12/1899. I'm pretty sure PWA didn't exist at that time ;-)
    Would you know what could the cause and the solution of this problem?

    Indeed this could explain this behavior.
    Why is this formula by the way? The created field is usually populated automatically with the current date and do not need any formula.
    You'll have this behavior (strange date) if the formula doesn't return anything (in case the "created" value is empty). In this case, it will return a default value that is this odd date.
    I'd advice to review this field and make it equal to the current date and time, with no formula.
    Hoep this helps.

  • Changing creation date on adobe acrobat 9

    I've got a folder full of old PDF files at work. They are all labeled DD-MM-YY to signify the date they were made but the pdf's were originally in Word format and when they were all converted to PDF's, they all took that day as their created date. I'm looking for a way to change the created date on these hundreds of PDF's to match the date in the file name. Is there an easy way to do this?  I have to print the documents and organize them chronologically by date.  However, I need to also have corresponding creation dates with the documents.  I'm not good with scripting or programming however I am great at following step by step directions.  I would greatly appreciate help on this since this is a semi time sensitive project.
    Thank you.

    Acrobat does not offer any way to change creation date. It is correct: by definition, it is the day when the PDF was made, it is not supposed to be set to a different date that might be more convenient.

  • Creation date used during ingest File Rename incorrect

    Hi
    System:
    Windows 7 64-bit SP1
    Prelude CC v2.0.1 (118)
    I've been using Prelude about 9 months now and have got used to it's foibles.  Hopefully some of these are being addressed for future releases.
    But the recent update seems to have introduced some problems that I didn't notice in previous versions.
    My query is on the new File Rename feature (the lower part of the Ingest panel).
    I have a preset for renaming my clips.  I want to rename using:
    Custom Text - I type this in depending on which location
    Date - I select DDMMYY Creation Date
    Auto Increment - (01)
    I have two issues using this preset, it could be me idk.
    The first is that the Creation Date appears as today's date, not the one from the file as I would understand it.  I would prefer it to pick up the actual Creation Date as it shows in the Metadata of the clip and also the time (i know this has already been suggested by an FCP user).
    The second is that If i rename a batch of files using the Auto Increment and then decide I want to add some more footage shot at a later date but maybe the same location.   I already have for example files labelled location_01 to location_15.  Now i want to ingest some more but starting at location_16.  Currently, I can't change the AutoIncrement field setting as you can in Bridge CC. 
    How I wish u could just implement the Batch rename features of Bridge in Prelude.  I am trying to switch from Bridge as it doesn't play nicely with video on my system.  It's a pain.  I love Prelude but can u please improve the renaming function.
    If the creation date was correct the auto increment feature would not be an issue because the files would be named differently.  As it is, ingesting tons of footage on the same day results in chaos.  Having to remember to manually change the date (I have it as a Custom Text field) is a nightmare and I can see forgetting to do it then it will be a mess.
    Perhaps my workflow is slightly different to someone who works in say TV but it would be nice when I know the features present in Bridge applied to all the other Suite apps.
    Any pointers would be REALLY useful because this is driving me insane at the moment.  And you guys are understandably reluctant to release details of future changes and features, so who knows you could be working on it right now.
    Thanks
    Just found there is another post asking more or less the same but no comments

    Message was edited by: GraphiteGal

    I'd like to second the request to be able to change the starting value of the auto increment function when ingesting in Prelude CC. 
    If I'm ingesting batches of footage either from different cards or at different times, it creates a mess of both manual file renaming in Finder (or batch renaming—same issue of additional, unnecessary work) and also (sometimes?) getting "file ingest error" messages from Prelude because I've already imported a file with the Custom_Text_(01) name.

  • Sorting projects by date for syncing

    I'm a new Aperture user and have recently imported a few years worth of iPhoto pictures. Everything went smoothly and I am really enjoying Aperture. I do, however, have one concern - syncing with iTunes. With iPhoto I could have the last 12 months events synced with my iPad and iPhone. This automatically changed as time passed so I always had the last 12 months of photos with me. But with Aperture if I select all projects from the last year, or month for that matter, ALL projects are selected. I assume this is because Aperture sees the projects as all newly created because of the recent import. But when I check the project properties the correct range of dates is listed.
    Is there any way, other than manually sorting, to have Aperture sync projects like iPhoto did albums?
    Thanks!
    Kevin

    I've experienced the exact same issue when I moved from iPhoto to Aperture last month. Here are the steps to recreate:
    1. Import your iPhoto library to Aperture, copying the photos into Aperture itself
    2. Open iTunes and attach your iOS device
    3. Go to your iOS device in iTunes and click on the "Photos" tab
    4. Check "Selected projects, albums and faces", and select "projects from the last 6 months"
    What should be included are projects with photos from the last 6 months. However, since the Aperture import created all new projects for each Event it imported from iPhoto, iTunes sees all projects as being from the last 6 months.
    I've rebuilt the Aperture library by holding Option+Command when opening Aperture, that didn't work. I even wrote a script to manually fix the project dates in ApertureData.xml using the dates from iPhoto. While that works temporarily, opening Aperture eventually overwrites the project dates with the incorrect recent ones.
    There is no way inside Aperture that I can find to change a project's creation date. The only thing close is right clicking on a project and clicking "Project Info". If I do that, they show the correct dates (i.e. photos from 1972 have a project date of 1972).
    This problem is seriously annoying and makes syncing photos to my iPhone essentially impossible without manually selecting albums. Apple, any input here is appreciated!

  • Burning a FCP project in iDVD?

    I would like to burn a FCP project to DVD using iDVD but cannot seem to import the project...when I open iDVD, and select open existing project, none of my FCP projects can be selected.  Is there another way I should be doing this? Should I be using DVD Studio Pro? Thanks!

    Hi
    FCE/P to iDVD 
    Several things
    • How to go from FCE/P to iDVD
    • Free space on Start-up hard disk
    • Encoding
    • Brand and type of DVDs used
    • Burn speed set
    • iDVD BUG
    • Chapters
    How to go from FCE/P to iDVD I do
    • Disable Screen and Energy saver
    • IMPORTANT --> FIRST in FinalCut - Mix Down Audio under Sequence Menu / Render Only / Mix-down
    • Export out as a QuickTime .mov file
    • Select with Mark - Chapter Mark
    • Not as Self-Contained (not important but saves time and space)
    • NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION (IMPORTANT)
    This QT.mov file I import into iDVD from within iDVD.
    Free space on Start-up hard disk
    I set a minimum of 25GB (for Mac OS and iDVDs temp files)
    Encoding
    • I use Pro Quality encoding
    Brand and type of DVDs used
    • I use Verbatim
    • I use DVD-R
    Burn speed set
    • I set down this to x4 (or x1)
    iDVD BUG
    • One can not go back to movie-project for any alterations and then go back to
    the iDVD project. It will notice and ask You to either Up-date or Cancel. Neither
    of them will work.
    Medicine - Start a brand new iDVD project.
    Use of Chapters
    • I only use a to z and 0 to 9 in naming them. NO other symbol/letter !
    • NO Chapter-mark at very beginning - iDVD NEEDS TO set this by it self
    • No Chapter marks in or within two seconds from a transition
    (Way around this last one - Export movie as QT full quality and NO Chapter marks
    Import this into a new Movie-project and now You are free to set C-Ms where You want
    them except at very beginning - still)
    Material used to build movie
    • video - I use streamingDV (or convert all other to this e.g. .mp4, .avi, .wmv etc)
    • audio - I use .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or from Audio-CD (44.1kHz) - no .mp3 or direct from iTunes
    • photos - I use .jpg - no .bmp etc
    Trash iDVD pref. file and run Repair Permissions - and have a re-try.

    May not be relevant, but I had the same problem with iDVD, where burned DVDs showed a green screen. It was cured by quitting Quicksilver and Quickeys as well as disabling sleep and screen-saving

  • Recovered FCP projects won't open.

    I've recently used Stellar Phoenix to recover data from my hard drive, which was successful, but now the FCP project files won't open, even if i force FCP to read it. It just gives me "Error: Wrong file type".
    The files that wont work are Final Cut Pro files. Files that do work are Pro Tools
    Other files that were recovered work ok (.mov quicktime files).
    I've seen threads on other forums of people who have had the same problem, it wasnt resolved. Has anyone here had/heard of this problem?
    Thanks

    Ok, so we have the final cut pro project file open now. The file type changer did work in the end..but now we have a different problem.
    All the media files that FCP wants to link to are there, but it will only find about 30% of them. The rest are "Media Offline". I've tried going through "reconnect media" and finding the files manually, but FCP just won't load them. It doesn't even give me an error message, it just doesn't do anything when i select the files and click ok. I also have to change it to see All Files rather than just audio or video. But..When I find the files in finder, I can append the video files with .mov, and they run fine in quicktime, and i can do the same with the audio files... Also, the file Type and Creator tags are the same on videos that FCP can read and the ones it can't read.Any thoughts? I have tried everything i can think of.
    Thanks again!

    Hi,
    Refer the WIKI section of SDN. There is a very good post that explains Assembly Processing in detail. You can also search the forum to get relevant pointers.
