How to: export 4:2:0 MPEG2 for Visual Circuits Firefly MC

I am trying to make a series of videos for a multi-channel media player called FireFly MC by Visual Circuits. It plays on 3 monitors and I am trying to make a multi screen presentation to give the illusion that it spans all 3 at times and the goes back to individual montors and back or whatever.
Every time i export and MPEG2 from Premiere Pro and play it on the system, there are tons of artifacts. and color changes to B & W and back to color.
There is a manual online, but the encoding requirements are not really something i am altogether familiar with.
Here are some:
1. Files must be program stream MPEG2 or system stream
MPEG1 of audio/video, or elementary stream MPEG2 or
MPEG1 of video only or audio only.
2. Use 4:2:0, not 4:2:2 encoding.
3. In MPEG-2, both audio and video fields should be encoded.
This is the normal default.
4. Audio only (Dolby Digital or MPEG Layer 2) files cannot be
mixed with files containing videos (MPEG, MPEG2 program
stream, video only).
5. Firefly – Standard IDE Hard Drive): The total bit rate of a
Firefly player must not exceed 40 mbps across four channels
(i.e. averaging 10 mbps per channel). Channels may be
encoded at different bit rates (up to 15 mbps on a given
channel) as long as 40 mbps is not exceeded across a single
hard drive (4-channel player).
6. The presentation time stamp (PTS) values contained in the
audio and video streams in a file must be continuous and
increasing. In particular, the PTS values should not reset to 0 at
any point in the file. The time between the first and last time
stamps in a file should reflect the actual duration of the file.
7. Files should be no less than 4 megabytes in size. If some of
your files are smaller than 4 megabytes, use an editor to
combine the files to create a single file at least 4 megabytes in
size.
8. Files should be no larger than 2 gigabytes in size.
Anyone ever work with this system or know how to export this type of file?
Thx in advance.

Hi Jim, I too am confused!
Why should the video codec for Option 1 be V210? Isn't this reserved for 10-bit video?
http://www.fourcc.org/yuv.php#V210
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS398C372B-B748-4ef6-BA0D-396D2E360707.ht ml
I would have thought that the UYVY option was the correct choice for 8-bit video.
http://www.fourcc.org/yuv.php#UYVY
Videos exported using Option 2 definately do not play correctly in Windows Media Player - I get no video, just audio. I have tried many different computers running different versions of Windows and Windows Media Player. I'm running Premiere CS5 v5.03 if that makes any difference.
I don't understand why videos from Option 1 play fine in Windows Media Player even though the systems don't have AJA hardware installed (or any video I/O device) - they are just plain vanilla office PCs

How to Export Non-Administrators Local GPO for import on a different PC

How to export Non-Administrators Local Group Policy and import on another PC?
All articles for exporting local GPO say to copy the C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicy and C:\Windows\System32\GroupPolicyUsers folder to another PC however that only works for changes done to the "Local Computer" or "User" (if you
alter the SIDs to match), respectively. It doesn't work to import Non-Admin Local GPO.
There are several requests for this you can find when searching and no solutions provided.

Hi,
For manage local GPO, we could take use of the LocalGPO tool included in the SCM.
LocalGPO allows you to manage the local group policy objects (LGPO) on non-domain joined computers. You can use LocalGPO to backup the LGPO from a stand-alone machine. You can also use it to apply the settings from a GPO backup to other computers, this includes
GPO backups created by LocalGPO, SCM, or the Active Directory Domain Services GPO backups created with the Group Policy Management Console.
Here is a good article talking about it:
SCM v2 Beta: LocalGPO Rocks!
And here is a thread for reference:
Using LocalGPO.wsf for standalone PC's

How to export a transparent image background for the web

Hi Everyone
I have made a mock up webpage in adobe fireworks 5. I am now in the process of using the slice tool to cut up the seperate parts and export them to dreamwever.
My question is this: how do i slice the images in such a way that the background is transparent .
Also, when exporting the image that i have just made trasparent, what do i need to do to expot it as a transparent background.
warm regards
Andreea

When you're ready to transfer your Fireworks layout to DW select FILE > Image Preview. In Options select Format PNG8 and beneath the color grid change the No Transparency dropdown to Alpha Transparency.
Click the Export button, name your file, choose the destination location, and in the dropdowns select Export > HTML and Images, HTML > Export HTML File, Slices > Export Slices, Pages > All Pages. (Also some choices may be handy for you in the Options button including Background Image for the exported file.)
PNG can be used, just as JPG, TIFF, PICT, BMP and GIF, all of which are in your Options > Format dropdown list.
Generally JPG is better for files that have gradients, GIF for simple images and text, but they don't do transparency so the larger PNG file is necessary for that.

How to export clips to After Effects for Compositing

I want to export clips from my timeline into After Effects to add some compositing of clouds and sky replacement.
FCP 7
AE CS5
OS 10.6.8
I dragged the clips from my timeline back into the Browser into a new bin but when I export from there, the dimensions aren't the same as my project.
My project is 1920x1080 and when I export the edited (spliced) clips from the browser, they're 720.
I don't want to go into my raw files and try and eyball where I spliced the clips b/c each video file is about 2 gigs and I'm only using a small section of each clip.
Any suggestions on how to do this?

It is much easier just to use Automatic Duck's Pro Import AE which will allow you to send your timeline to AE.
AE will use the existing media that is called for by the FC timeline, you don't have to copy/export the media files.
Used to cost several hundred dollars, now FREE as the creator has gone to work for Adobe.
http://www.automaticduck.com/products/piae/
P.S. The site says it is compatible up to CS5.5 which was current when development was stopped, but I use it in CS6 with no problem.

How to export a Webdynpro java DC, for reuse in another system

Hi Everybody,
I am having a Webdynpro Java DC, i want to give that DC to another person to import into his system and work. i am doing a export of that DC and creating a zip file. But when we are trying to import it in another system, it is giving errors. When trying to build, its not showing DC options at all, DC-> buid or deploy options are not visible, when right clicked over the DC.
Am i doing it in a wrong way. Can anybody help me.
thanks & regards,
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
Are you working with local DC?
Then you can take ur dc in the following way..
Find where the dcs are stored in ur system..
<Some File Path> .dtc\LocalDevelopment\DCs\<your dc package>\
There will be a folder with your project name.
Copy that folder and Paste in the other system under the same folder structure.
ie., the copied folder need to be pasted here
<Some path> .dtc\LocalDevelopment\DCs\<your dc package>\
Once you copied,Open your NWDS and go to DC perspective.In the Local DCs.
Go to Local Development -- > My Component
Right Click on 'My Component' and click on 'Refresh'.
Your new project will appear under the 'My Component' hierarchy.
Right Click on your project and Choose 'Create Project'.
Now Proper dc will be available for you to work on.
If you are facing any problems, let me know.
Best Wishes

How to export clips to be used for multi-angle video DVDs??

I've read all the posts here that I can find but I'm still coming up empty. I have three clips, one a multiangle clip and then the two source clips that went into making it. All three have the same in and out points marked and the same duration and I've gone to compressor and qued all three up before submitting, with all the same video settings. But I still can't get all three to work. Only the two source videos go together. It keeps telling me that "The Video Asset 'X' is only usable up to XXXXXX" and asks me if I want to use it anyway. If I say no, then it tells me that there was an incompatible GOP structure. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? I am this close to literally banging my head against the table in my attempts to figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When working with multi angle or mixed angle, the alternate sequences must have the exact same GOP structure each... this means that when the encoder converts them to MPEG that 'I' frames are in exactly the same position for all three pieces.
Typically, a cut in your FCP timeline will force the encoder to place an 'I' frame, which then means that ALL the clips need to have the same cut. Additionally, ALL alternate sections need to be the same length (to the frame).
There is much debate about the differences between VBR and CBR encoding. I have had nothing but trouble with VBR and multi-angle... so use CBR. Also, I am one of the first to say don't use DVDSP to act as your encoder, however for mixed or multi-angle work it seems to produce a more reliable result in terms of GOP structure (sigh... ).
In short, use an encoder that doesn't employ scene detection , use CBR and make sure all sections are the right length.
How did you encode this footage to begin with?

How to export data using application adapter for EBS?

my scenario is : there're some external apps need to communicate with EBS,
and the intermedia layer supposed to be implemented by SOA suite/Fusion adapters.
my confusion is:
in oracle integration repository, most of APIs are CUD (create, update, delete) without R (read). but many of our usecase was querying data from EBS.
my question is : although, considering performance and unpridictable query object and granularity,it's not a good idea using app adatper to querying data from EBS via app api, but if I using db adapter to query data directly, it seems not easy as expected because it need to know the detail table structure and relationship and to build sql by hand.
so, is there other proper way to get outbound data integration using fusion middleware? additional, I'm not clear about the ODI functionality , is it possible and easy to use ODI perform this task, eg, is ODI has enough API to interact with fusion adapter?

In the Adapter Wizard look under "Other Interfaces/Custom Objects/PLSQL APIs". There are many many "Get" APIs here. None of these are identified or explained in the Integration Repository but the Trading Community Architecture - Technical Implementation Guide does give a little bit of information about what they do.

Keycode missing in Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008

I just upgraded from Visual Studio 2005 Professional to Visual Studio 2008 Professional (with SP1 installed also). Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 is listed as installed under the VS Help dialog, but no key code is shown. And when I attempt to open a Crystal Report, I get a dialog saying 'Please wait while Windows configures Crystal Reports Basic', which eventually terminates with an 'Invalid Keycode' message.
I've tried repairing the Visual Studio install, and even uninstalling and reinstalling the whole thing. To no avail.
Other facts: My VS 2005 version still works with its version of Crystal Reports. I am running Vista Professional. Looking in the registry, under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | VSNET | Keycodes | CR9 NET, I see a Type REG_SZ with a data value in the form xxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [6 chars-7 chars-26 chars].
Help! How do I get Crystal Reports Basic for Visual Studio 2008 to work?

Hi Elaine,
Thanks for your response. I do have versions of Visual Studio 2003 and Visual Studio 2005 on my machine, and the earlier versions of Crystal Reports worked with these versions. In addition to the registry key I cited earlier (which I now understand is a VS 2003 version), there is an entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | 10.2 | Crystal Reports | KeyCodes | CR Ent. I see that you are correct, and this corresponds to my VS 2005 installation (which still works). However, there is NO entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Crystal Decisions | Crystal Reports | 10.5 (the CR Basic for Visual Studio 2008 path you indicated). There is an entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | SOFTWARE | Business Objects | 10.5 | Crystal Reports, but it has only keys for ChartSupportPath, CommonFiles, DisablecheckForUpdates, and Path.
The Windows\assembly folder has 25 files that are CrystalDecisions.xxx, version 10.5.3700.0. This is consistent with my seeing 'Crystal Reports' listed as installed in VS 2008 Help. But no KeyCode!
I tried a complete uninstall and reinstall of VS 2008, without luck. I can't clean my system of earlier verions of Crystal Reports, because I am still supporting a body of work that I did under VS 2005, and I can't convert all this stuff to 2008 -- at least until I have a fully working VS 2008 suite. After this experience, I fear that if I were to uninstall an earlier version, i might never get it back!
I've spend quite a few hours on this with no luck, so any help would be enormously appreciated.

Installing OCCI for visual studio2010?

I dont understand how i'm supposed to install OCCI for visual studio 2010 when the download includes the following items
1.) a .lib file
2.) .dll
3.) .sym
i understand how to use .lib files but in order to use it u need the .h file that includes the function prototypes located in the .lib...can anyone explain what im doing wrong or how i can acccess the functions and structures located inside the .lib file included with the OCCI download?

I can only speak for VS2008, but maybe it helps.
In the project properties windows / configuration properties / linker / aditional dependencies you shoud have: oraocci11.lib (for release), oraocci11.lib (for debug).
Also you should set your Visual Studio paths (inclusion, reference, libraries)
Mark Williams blog about OCCI and VS was helpful for me in the past: http://oradim.blogspot.com/2009/07/getting-started-with-occi-windows.html
And obviously you should: #include <occi.h>

How do Export Mpeg2 as one file please?

Hi, I've been asked to enter some work into a competition.
All of my work is in Final Cut and the spec for the competition is a single file Mpeg2?
Every time I export an Mpeg2, as always it comes out as 2 files, audio and video (I'm sure you guys know that) but this comp is asking for a single file mpeg2? How do I do this?
I've come across the word 'mux', is that relevant?
Any help is much appreciated, thank you.
Alex

I had this problem when i had to FTP some finished spots to a television station for broadcast.
Personally, I've never dealt with MPEG Slipstream, but a lot of guys here seem to recommend it. Here's my solution that tends to work the best.
1. Export your video out of final cut.
2. Bring that into Compressor.
3. Apply an Mpeg 2/Aiff encoder to it, (just like you'd do if you were going to DVD, except aiff instead of AC3) and export.
*NOTE-For this i created my own preset and cranked up the settings as high as they would go. Normally you wouldn't do this if your were going to DVD with it, but i wasn't and this would give me the best quality.
4 Convert the Aiff to an .M2P with "Bit Vice Helper" (I don't know the website, google it, you'll find it. I believe it's a free download, or it's REALLY cheap.) using the advanced settings.
5. Multiplex you .m2v & .m2p files together.
I like this because bit vice helper doesn't actually re-compress your video, it just combines the 2 streams together. The file size of your final video will depend on how high your data rate you set for the MPEG 2 you create in Compressor. Generally, mine tend to be around 30Mb for a 30 second commercial. But that's also with the highest compression i can get.
Hope this helps!
