HDV Project-System upgrade

We are starting to offline an HDV 1080/60i project and are upgrading to a Dual 2.8 quad, 2 x 23 in ACD's and MXO. Drives will be Hitachi 1T's in a Seritek PCI enclosure. Online will be on another system either in ProRes422 or Avid DNxHD with an Automatic Duck transfer. Final layoff to HDCAM SR. Workflow will be cuts only native HDV (Sony) with rough cuts BITC back to HDV tape and medium broadband QT BITC files for transcripts and ftp viewings. We will be batching at least 60 hours of tape for this show.
Questions:
In setting up the new Mac Pro is there anything I should be considering? I can put in a cloned drive of 10.4.11 and FCP 6.0.3 or should I go with Leopard, a new hard install of Studio 2 and update all programs? QT 7.5? Anything to watch out for?

DVGeorge,
I am still wallowing the SD DVCAM stone age. I am an independent video producer whose projects are not for big time broadcast but rather DVD distribution and the internet. I shoot my "real" projects with a SONY DSR300 DVCAM camera which is a great camera and has served me well for many years. Like your camera's older relative, I use the SONY VX1000 for my family stuff.
So I have not worked with P2. However, from the info I have recieved in this forum, if I had the bucks and felt I needed the technological upgrade to HD, I would avoid HDV and go for the Panasonics HVX200 with a FS100. I understand that there is a learning curve for the p2 workflow, but it seems to be reliable, less hassles, and better quality than SONY's HDV. I have always had SONY equipment, so this would be a first for me to venture over to Panasonic. If I had some serious bucks I would get a HDX900 but that would require winning the lottery at this stage.
On the computer front, I am about to upgrade from my G4 to a screaming ProMac similar to your set up and you might be able to guess that I am very eager for this to happen. In fact, while I have been researching all the options for the ProMac, I have shorted out several keyboards from drooling.
I was going to wait until next spring when the new OS X comes out (puma, lion, zebra, elk... I forget the name), but by waiting that long it might mean a hefty bill for all the new keyboards.

I need to output a PAL HDV project from FCP as a PAL DV file with 4 audio t

I need to output a PAL HDV project from FCP as a PAL DV file with 4 audio tracks - specifically one stereo pair to be t1&t3, the other stereo pair to be t2&t4. This is the standard way requested by an international distributor of tv programmes. I understand how to set the sequence in FCP to output 4 audio tracks - either 2 stereo pairs (1&2, + 3&4), or 4 discrete tracks. But how do I then output this as a QT file?
The manual tells me that to export multiple audio tracks, File>Export>QT Movie has it's Config pop-up menu in the Audio Settings area of the General tab of the Sequence Settings. Well, that's set for 4 discrete channels, but the QT export settings only allow for 2 mono or 1 stereo output, and that's what I get when I try it. What it says in the manual just doesn't happen.
Exporting via Compressor, on the other hand, has an abundance of choices of 4-track outputs, none of which are labelled as anything resembling 'discrete'. Would any of those 4.0 settings suffice? Or am I likely to get myself into difficulties further down the line? As I am monitoring for this task on a 2-track audio system, I cannot confirm exactly what I am getting when I use any of those settings.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
John

Call me naive, but I've not heard of splitting the stereo pairs like this before.
What broadcaster? (perhaps one of our EU regulars will drop in...)
You can do all sorts of pairing but it is coincident tracks pairing- eg 1/2 + 3/4
Sorry I can't offer anything.

WBS Elements not getting created in ECC Project System from CRM 7.0

Dear all,
We are trying to integrate SAP CRM 7.0 with SAP ECC-PS module. The objective is to bring in the marketing plan and elements data from the CRM system, and to create the corresponding WBS in project system. We have done most of the configuration as recommended by SAP in both the systems, and we see that the BDOCS are getting generated and sent to the ECC system. The following steps have been successfully completed:
1.       Set up the RFC connections between the two systems
2.       Selected the connection type as Middleware in CRM system.
3.       Installed the cProject Add on in CRM box.
4.       Created a project scenario (with project and network profiles) in the PS system and assigned the same in the CRM system.
5.       The Project Scenario in PS config has the same name as the Project Type in CRM config.
6.       Created and released the campaign ids being created in the CRM system.
As already mentioned, we can see that the BDOCS are coming to the ECC system and are getting stored in BDOC_TRACK table. However the issue is that the corresponding WBS elements are not getting generated in the ECC system. Is there anything that that we are missing in the ECC box which would trigger the WBS element creation?
Request you all to share your inputs which would be immensely beneficial for us in achieving this integration.
Thanks and Kind Regards,
Aditya Shrivastava

Hello Aditya,
We too are facing this issue.. if you have resolved the issue could you please let us know the solution ?
Some inputs related to our system,
We have upgrade from CRM 4.0 to CRM 7.0 SP07 and R/3 backend system is on 4.7 SP27, earlier we have completed the upgrade on sandbox without any issues which was upgrade to CRM 7.0 SP04 but with SP07 we are facing the problem of WBS Element not getting created in R/3.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

Are jpg's okay for an HDV project?

I'm working on a 60-minute HDV project in PP3. In addition to ~50 minutes of HDV footage, I have ~150 still images.
To prepare the images before import to PP3, I do the following:
* open the RAW image from Adobe Bridge...perform edits in Adobe Camera Raw...save as PSD file
* open the PSD file in PShop...resize the image to ~1440x1080 pixels...sometimes larger if I expect to zoom in
* save it as a JPG with a quality setting between 9 and 12 so that the resulting file size is between close to 1MB...never more than 2MB.
I specifically avoid importing image files as PSD files, since they are usually 4 MB and up in size.
Comments, please.
- Mike -

Hunt,
Thanks for your continued help and for taking the time to be so thorough in your postings.
I read your Article with great interest. Based on your attention to image quality and the importance of preserving the original files, I can tell that we're cut from the same cloth. I also come to the video world from still photography and am sensitive to those issues.
Re: your most recent post...I agree completely about testing the quality difference between PSD and JPG files. There have been times when I have animated layers in a PSD and have needed that capability...but that was in an SD project, not an HDV project. It was a family history movie which ran over an hour, including the extra features. It was a combination of jpg stills (~200) and SD video. I had no performance issues with my PP3 configuration.
But my HDV project seems fragile by comparison. My first 25-minute HDV project took ~6 minutes to load and caused frequent (Not Responding) semi-crashes. I also learned the hard way that using MP3 audio files caused render failures and crashes (not experienced in my SD project). Replacing all audio soundtrack files with WAV files has helped...but I am not too trusting of the systems' capabilities. I have initiated a fresh project to continue work on the same production. Since this is for personal consumption (not client work), I can live with having my Europe Trip production parsed, although I hope to combine them into one HDV project at the end with a run time of ~ 1 hour.
I render the project(s) to MPEG2 files using the the Adobe Media Encoder and use a Western Digital WD TV HD Media Player to serve an HDMI signal to my 46" TV. I am very pleased (stunned, actually) with the fidelity of the images...what an improvement over seeing one's work rendered down to SD. I highly recommend it...the WD player is only $100 on Amazon...much cheaper than going Apple TV (max 720p) or with Blue Ray burning and playback. I'm happy to provide my AME settings if you're interested.
To the topic of proper scaling - maintaining circles than want to morph into ovals...
This is only a recent problem for me. In an effort to make my project as lean as possible, I took some advice offered on the Creative Cow PP forum to scale images to 1440x1080. That prompted me to use PS3 to do that scaling (using Rectangular Marquee+Crop, or simply the Crop Tool) with settings entered into the Tools' parameters. As I began to import these into my HDV project, I noticed that some images were being stretched on the horizontal axis.
That prompted me to experiment by creating a perfect circle of black on a white background in PS, trying difference Scaling and Save As options, and evaluating the results after import into PP. Frankly, that has been a mind twister. The same PSD file, when Saved as a JPG, exhibits the stretched behavior...go figure that one. That has led me to the wonderful world of PAR settings...again, experiments on that circle document have had unexpected results. At this point, I have some interest in figuring it all out, but am pressed with a Thanksgiving deadline on my Europe Trip production.
In brief, my original workflow is as follows:
* open the image (use raw converter for global adjustments and save as PSD)
* if images from the pt&shoot are used, skip the raw work but open in PS3, as below
* use PS3 to adjust for composition, lighting, etc. and save as a PSD
* make a copy to be used for the video project only
* open those copies...assess how much zooming I'm likely to want...use Image Size to downsize/resample the longest dimension accordingly
* use Save As to compress to a JPG file of ~ 1 Mb...max of 2 Mb. With possibly 200+ images in an already fragile project, I feel it's essential...and the JPG's display very well all the way through to the WD TV and the TV
In the spirit of getting this project finished, I am going to abandon the "proper scaling" efforts with 1440 parameters and go back to my original plan.
I'm tempted to write up the workflow in a bit more detail and call it "The Survival Guide for Handling Still Images in Premiere". Hunt, your Article was the first thorough discussion I could find on any forum...I'm wondering why I couldn't find it earlier...my loss. It's a shame that the Adobe User Manual and other books like the PP3 Bible don't spend much time at all on advising folks on how to handle still images. In books that are hundreds of pages long, you'd think a page or two could be devoted to it.
Thanks again for your help.

Project System Understanding

Hello experts,
I am new in SAP. I have read a lot of documents related to project system.
Still I am having a problem. Now i have to handle a client but i don't know what they want form my side.
I came to that new project is a capital investment project.
Can you please tell me what i have to do over there ?
Thanks

Edited by: Kushal29 on Apr 17, 2010 12:35 PM

Kushal, If you have been given opportunity to maintain particular customers landscape.
You can have a discussion with your customer as to what level of support htey are looking from you as Basis standpoint.
Based on that you can define your Service Level Agreement.
I would advice to proceed with :
1. Login to SAP system goto stms and have an idea of system landscape and change flow.
2. Have a look where is your database installed and SAP is installed.
3. To perform maintenance you would need to have SAP , DB and Operating system access.(you may request this to your customer)
4. Once you have undersatanding of SAP system you can look for Kernel and Support Pack upgrades.
I hope it helps you.

Problems with exporting my first HDV project

Hello everybody
When I want to export my 30 min HDV project it takes forever around 10-15 hours. When I finally got a self-contained quicktime movie file exported. It does not play in anything but FCP. Why is it so slow and how can I make it go faster?
I have a Macbook 1, 83 ghz 1 gb ram and FCP 5.0 the video is compressed to HDV1080i50.
Rendering is finished.
Thanksful for help
/David

Without wanting to spell it out to you, yes, as the other guys have correctly interpreted, the article highlights the fact that HDV is processor/RAM intensive, and it seems to me that your system just hasn't got the grunt to make HDV a fluid format to work in... One of the main hassles is the re-conforming of the GOP structure (HDV is an mpeg2 type format) when exporting HDV sequences, which is why many people capture/transcode to a full i-frame format to avoid GOP structures all together.
Without meaning to seem rude or brush off your original enquiry, there is loads of information on the forum about pro's/cons of HDV... a simple search will help you out.

Project system (user field key)

HI ALL
Can i add user field TAB at Project Defination level. if yes then how.....
Thanks
shabbir

Hope this helps...
The following SAP enhancement is available for project definitions in
the Project System:
o   CNEX0006    Customer-specific fields in the project definition
You can use this enhancement to add new customer-specific fields for the
standard project definition in table PROJ. To process these fields you
can create your own screen, which the user can call up when maintaining
standard project definitions.
The enhancement CNEX0006 contains the following enhancement components:
Menu entries:
    SAPLCJGR+CUD Project planning board
    SAPLCJWB+CUD Master data maintenance (CJ06, CJ07, CJ08)
Function exits:
    EXIT_SAPLCJSS_002 for transferring data to your own program
    EXIT_SAPLCJSS_003 for transferring data from your program to R/3
Screen areas:
    SAPLCJSS0205_CUSTSCR1_SAPLXCN10600
Activities
1. Create the enhancement.
    To do this, either create a new project or use an existing one.
2. Create structure CI_PROJ in ABAP/4-Dictionary (transaction SE11) in
    your own development class.
3. Expand structure CI_PROJ to include your own fields.
      Note the following:
      -   You must use the name ranges reserved for customers.
      -   The maximum number of fields in database tables is 255 (in PROJ
          and CI PROJ - for SAP field and user-defined fields together).
          SAP reserves the right to add new fields to table PROJ; if the
          maximum number is reached, your user-defined fields could be
          excluded.
      Activate the structure.
4. Maintain the enhancement components:
      -   Assign the function customer fields a name.
      -   Add to the program code for the function exit EXIT_SAPLCJWB_002.
          This function exit transfers SAP data to your part of the
          program.
          To do this, call up the function module and double-click the
          include line. Create the include module.
          In order to transfer the variables, you must insert a
          Move-corresponding statement in Include ZXCN1V11:
          move-corresponding sap_proj_imp to proj.
          Now define the "projs" data structure as global variable. To do
          this, jump to the main program SAPLXCN1. First, double click
          include LXCN1TOP and then include ZXCN1TOP. Create the object if
          required.
          Include the following tables statement in the source text for
          include ZXCN1TOP.
tables
          tables proj.
      -   Add to the program code for the function exit EXIT_SAPLCJWB_003.
            This function exit takes the data from your part of the program
            and transfers it to the SAP standard program. Create your own
            corresponding include module.
            In order to transfer the variables, you must insert a
            Move-corresponding statement in Include ZXCN1U12:
            move-corresponding proj to cnci_proj_exp.
        -   Create the screen area.
            Double-click SAPLCJSS0205_CUSTSCR1_SAPLXCN10600 and then choose
            Fullscreen. The screen has been preconfigured by SAP. You can
            delete these fields and add new ones:
            Choose Goto -> Dict./Program fields
            Maintain the table/field name PROJ and select the fields to
            appear on the screen.
            Generate the screen.
        For detailed information, see OSS Note number 86050.
    5. Activate the project.
        Only once you have activated the project, will your enhancement take
        effect.
    Note for Batch-Input
    For your customer-specific fields to be evaluated in the project
    information system, the structures in the project information system
    must be regenerated. To do this, start program RCNCT001.
    If you want to fill your customer-specific fields later using
    batch-input you must take the screen SAPLCJWB 0205 into consideration.
    Further notes
    Unlike modifications, enhancements are not influenced by a release
    upgrade because they are not part of the original SAP programs, rather,
they exist in an area reserved for customers.
You can also find documentation for this enhancement in the enhancement
transaction.

IMac G3 350Mhz Memory & System Upgrade Killer

I was trying to upgrade (RAM and system) my children's iMac. I went from 9.1 to 10.2 (own all software). 256 chip went in first and only with 9.1. Ran fine. Next step was to put original CD (not tray) in iMac and install system upgrade.
Ran fine during requested restarts. Shut down and came back 4 hours later to run tutorial program (Total Training for Mac OS X). I could hear the 'good' mac startup sound, but the entire screen was dark...as if it were turned off.
After reading messages, I learned about 'firmware'. Should I have installed something? Doesn't the 10.2 know to install this firmware?
Need direction on how to get the children's computer running before wife does a 'Lorraina Bobbit'.
iMac Mac OS X (10.2.x)

After turning on the machine, wait a few minutes and then push the button on the front. Once this button has changed color, push it again and see if your display functions normally; if so, open the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences and set your Mac OS 9 system as the startup disk. Restart your machine, and then perform the instructions in sentence 1 again. From here, download and install the firmware update immediately, and then use Startup Disk 9.21 to reselect the Mac OS X system as the startup disk.

How to create the Custom project System as Web Project

Hi,
I have created a custom project system using this walkthrough. But
this walk through is targeting Visual C# project system. I need to create the Custom project system as Web project and set the start up page as index.html file. How can I achieve this?
Note:
I have got the Custom project system sample from VS2013 SDK samples(https://mpfproj12.codeplex.com/).
But it demonstrate the Custom console applications only.
- Abbas K

Hi,
So you didn't even follow this walkthrough yet? If you did, how did you do it?
I failed to create such a web project system because I finally messed up my VS experimental instance. But it's possible to create a custom web project system, by following this walkthrough. Someone else has successfully made it, check this
link.
The difference is that you have to use web project type instead of the console application project type. You could copy a web project's .csproj file into the VSPackage project and rename it to xxx.myproj. There's an error in the walkthrough that the AssemblyInfo.cs
file should be put into Properties folder and set the "Build Action" property to Content, "Include in VSIX" to true.

Hi,
to create quote from project system there is quite a bit of PS ( project system ) SD integration is required. i will try my best to deliver with whatever time i have right now.
1. t-code -CKCM - your will define easy cost planning here whihc will be your pricing factor in in sales order.
2. ODP1- you define DIP profile here you will also define your costing elements here. this DIP profile is attached to sales doc type. and on main menu you will find button that says quotation. click on that. this willd irectly take you to quote and from there u can take it forward.
I hope it helps u little. Though i know its not enough.

About reversal of Outbound delivery generated from Project system due to sale return

Hi SAP Expert ,
We have made delivery from project system using t.code CNS0 and billing document is generated with reference of sales order. Now Goods is return by customer due to some technical reason, We created return sales order with reference of billing document and Credit memo with reference of Return sales order.
What is T.code for making return delivery or reversal of Delivery /PGI generated from Project system in sap r/3 ?
Pls. suggest to me.
regards
VKM

Hello,
it depends whether in the billing document the material codes identifies the goods delivered and to be returned or not.
If it's so, you can create a Return Sales Order with reference to the billing document, create the return delivery, and then the credit memo.
If it's non so, you can create a Return Sales Order with reference to the billing document (but without copying the material items, and entering manually material code and quantity to be returned), then create the return delivery. Then you can create a Credit memo request with reference to the Billing Document or with reference to the Return Sales Order.
To create the return delivery, you can run VL01N with reference to the Return Sales Order (just like for outboud deliveries), or from VA02, following the menu path "Sales document --> Deliver".
Best regards,
Andrea

My bank's system upgrade tells me that my Mac is a public computer. I know it's not but how do I find out for sure?

I purchased myMac for private, personal use. However, my bank's system upgrade says my Mac is a public computer and as such will now allow me to access any of my account information. The passcode that the bank gave to me will not work with a public computer. How can I make sure that my computer is still a private computer and not a public one? If it has become public, since the bank system upgrade, how dp I get it back to being a private computer for my use only? HELP PLEASE!

When most bank sites ask whether or not your computer is public or private, it is usually for you to understand that if you are on a public computer...like a library...to not have the computer remember your personal password and also to remind you to log out. If you are the only one that uses this computer, it is private.

What's the best system upgrade for 'older' Mac Mini?

My MacMini is about five years old:
Model Name:    Mac mini
Model Identifier:    Macmini4,1
Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
Processor Speed:    2.4 GHz
Number Of Processors:    1
Total Number Of Cores:    2
L2 Cache:    3 MB
Memory:    2 GB
Bus Speed:    1.07 GHz
Boot ROM Version:    MM41.0042.B00
SMC Version (system):    1.65f2
This mini is still running System 10.6.8, with the 'latest' version of Safari being version 5.1.10.
Lately, Safari fails to perform certain features correctly on certain websites, and I have to switch to Firefox to make the websites work.
Is it time for a system upgrade, so I can run a newer version of Safari? If so, which newer OSX system version would be the best for me to upgrade to?

A few other things to consider if you want to upgrade your OS.
If you are using any apps that are still PowerPC apps, they will not run on
any newer Mac OS. So you will need to find replacements ($$$$).
Also, in terms of apps, you need to make sure the apps you are currently
using are compatible with the newer MacOS. You may need to upgrade ($$$$)
or find alternatives.
Also, you will need to make sure any external hardware that you use with
your Mac is also compatible with the newer MacOS. You may simply need to
update drivers or the hardware may no longer be supported ($$$$).
So, upgrading your MacOS could end up costing more than just adding RAM!!!
