Is there any way to increase the number of codecs supported in FCE?

Hi all - does anyone know if there is a way to allow FCE to natively edit more codecs than are listed in the default sequence settings? I use FCPro and have been encouraging folks at my University to use FCE for intermediate editing. I just found out that many formats supported in FCP are not supported in FCE.
Are there any plug-ins or anything we can buy to increase the types of files that FCE will support (in a sequence without rendering)?
Follow up: if not, can anyone tell me the specifics of the 720p30 AIC format that FCE uses?
Apple Intermediate Codec
1280x720
30fps progressive?
bitrate?
audio sampling rate?
It seems odd to me that FCE has such a limited number of formats it supports natively. And why isn't ProRes 422 a part of FCE? I thought that was their big thing now - HD wihtout taking up all the real estate that AIC does.
Thanks. I'm frustrated with both iMovie and FCE and wishing that Sony Vegas worked on Macs!

Hi(Bonjour)!
Well FCE is a stripped down version of FCP, for a fraction of the price. It was aimed to produce TV content in TV native resolution.
In the past years, HDV and AVCDHD were added through AIC codec.
For most of FCE users (from the beginner to intermediate video editors)those formats are adequate.
To have access to native HDV or to Apple ProRes 422, you have to buy Final Cut Studio 2. All those codecs will be available in FCE export with quickitme conversion settings.

  • Is there a way to increase the number of layers in PS touch for iPad? Can Adobe do something about this?

    Is there a way to increase the number of layers in PS touch for iPad? Can Adobe do something about this?  I have been using PS touch for iPad for a few years and ALWAYS end up with a message that I have reached the maximum allowable number of layers.  not to mention of course a simple tool for drawing straight lines which is a must.  I may be missing something.  I would have imagined that a respectable company like Adobe would have added over the years a small upgrade to solve these issues.
    thanks. 

    Hi Patrick,
    I'm working on a 30" monitor, so it's effectively 2560x1600.  It only seems to be showing 2 tracks at a time, unless there is a preference or setting I'm missing that I can't seem to find in the documentation.  Here is a screenshot:
    I don't see any areas for expanding the timeline.  I can scroll vertically in the timeline, but I can't seem to actually get a larger static vertical area for showing more tracks at once.  The only vertical resizing widget is to expand the bottom or top panels, not the timeline.
    Thanks,
    Jason

    In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.

  • Is there any way to limit the number of Threads running in Application(JVM)

    Hello all,
    is there any way to limit the number of Threads running in Application(JVM)?
    how to ensure that only 100 Threads are running in an Application?
    Thanks
    Mohamed Javeed

    You should definitely use a thread pool for this. You can specify maximum number of threads that can be run. Be note that the thread pool will only limit the number of threads that are submitted to it. So donot call "Thread"s start() method to start thread on your own. Submit it to the pool. To know more, study about executor service and thread pool creation. Actually it will not be more than 20 line code for a class and you might need maximum of 2 such classes, one for threadPool and other one for rejection handler (if you want).
    Just choose the queue used carefully, you just have to pass it as a parameter to the pool.
    You should use "Bounded" queue for limiting threads, but also be careful in using queues like SynchronizedQueue as the queue will execute immediately the threads submitted to it if maximum number of threads have not been running. Otherwise it will reject it and you should use rejection handler. So if your pool has a synchronized queue of size 100, if you submit 101th thread, it will be rejected and is not executed.
    If you want some kind of waiting mechanism, use something like LinkedBlockingQueue. What this will do is even if you want 100 threads, you can specify the queue's size to be 1000, so that you can submit 1000 threads, only 100 will run at a time and the remaining will wait in the queue. They will be executed when each thread already executing will complete. Rejection occurs only when the queue oveflows.

  • I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11 and am now, when uploading latest photos, getting a message saying that my startup disk is full.  Is there any way of increasing the capacity of the start up disk?

    I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11.  As I've been uploading the latest photos in the last two days I've been getting a message stating that my start-up disk is nearly full.  I had no idea there was a limit.  Is there any way of increasing its capacity?  I have been shooting in Raw of late and I know it takes up a lot of space but I have heard of other people who have over 20,000 photos on their computers, so what is going on here??

    Two possibiilities here:
    1. Your start up disk is nearly full
    Or
    2. You have minor damage to the iPhoto Library and it's giving you a bogus message.
    But here's the thing: A full start up disk is a very serious issue and needs to be dealt with fast.
    So, how big is your Hard Disk? How much free space on it?

  • Is there any way to increase the contrast of the slider in the Table of Contents? It becomes very hard to see as you slide down a presentation. This has been asked before, a few years back. Has a solution been provided?

    I designed an interactive script using Captivate 7. It works like a branching scenario, and is currently in use by about 350 phone operators, soon to be over 750. Everybody is pretty happy about it, but I am getting complaints - especially form the older people - that the slider in the TOC is very hard to see, and I agree - as you scroll down the TOC entries, the slider becomes lighter and lighter in color. Is there any way to tweak it so that I can increase contrast, or recolor it in a darker tone? I know this was discussed a couple of years ago, but I don't know if the issue was addressed by Adobe, or if anyone has come up with a solution.

  • Is there a way to increase the number of "Open Recent" files that is listed Lightroom 5?

    In previous versions this was unlimited. It allowed me a quick way to view catalogs I have worked on even months ago.
    There are no options inside Lightroom 5 to adjust this that I can find.
    So is there a file I can modify in the Lightroom system folder or in the registry that will remove the limited number or increase the number allowed in the list?

    I agree that there really isn't a benefit to having multiple catalogs. I have two catalogs that I use. One is my main catalog that has multiple years and all of the images that I want to keep. The other one is my "test catalog" that I use for experimenting with different photo techniques. None of those images are important enough for me to want to keep them with my other ones. I don't use it very often anymore. But it's there just in case. There's not a performance hit for having thousands of images in a single catalog. The catalog is primarily a database designed for high-volume use. Having all images in a single catalog simplifies searching and organization in general. But if you're happy with multiple catalogs then go for it. Sometimes the more difficult way is easier to understand.
    Ok so let the debate begin....
    So why have multiple catalog choices at all? When you load a catalog it contains all of the images and the modification data that you have done to each picture with in each module in Lightroom.
    Beyond that you have within that catalog a 1000 folders each with a day or name for the shots taken. You still have to rifle through those files and imagines anyway all the while having a years worth of photography packed in to one single catalog. Why?
    I am a professional photographer, I shoot daily, and I import my shots each day in a folder dated and named for the shot. I create a new catalog for those folders so that I can open only that catalog and what was done with it at the time.
    It is easy for me to pop open that catalog and keep it separate from all my other days of work and back it up individually. I can quickly run back through my archives and find a client for reprints and all of the setting done for that client or project stay with the catalog.
    So why pack everything in to one master huge catalog? even if it is just data it can be a lot over time depending on how much work you do. I myself take 100s of shots per day and this is the system I like best to protect mine and my clients work.
    But really thanks for your comments I will continue working my way with all of my work spilt in to separate catalogs.
    I wont be back on these forums anytime soon because like most of them you can not get an answer to the actual question you ask instead you get berated by some people who have too much time on their hands and not enough work to.

  • Is there any way to limit the number of times that a PDF can be opened?

    I run a small publishing company and we want to provide exam copies of our books to professors.  At present our exam copies have the words EXAM COPY as a water mark on every page and we've also made the files so that they can't be printed or easily copied.  However, we'd like to also restrict these PDFs so that they can only be opened 5 times.  I've read about FileOpen but that approach seems a bit more complex than needed.  Is there any other way to restrict the number of times that a PDF file can be opened once it is downloaded?  Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    DRM soltions like FileOpen are your best bet for PDFs. Others include Adobe's LiveCycle Rights Managment, LockLizard, Armjisoft PDF Security OwnerGuard, etc.
    They all work and are priced differently, but there's really nothing for what you want to do that is both simpler and secure.

  • Is there any way to increase the volume beyond maximum volume?

    Is there any way I can increase the volume on the internal speaker on my MAC Pro Tower beyond what it is at maximum volume? 
    Thank you.

    Depending on what you're trying to do, there are a few solutions.
    If you're just using the machine normally & playing games, etc, then get some amplified speakers, or if you have a stereo system available at your work/home you can get an adapter cable that will let you run from the line out of the Mac Pro to the input jack on your stereo.
    If you're looking to so more serious audio production, then look for an audio interface.  Companies like M-Audio, MotU (Mark Of The Unicorn), Akai Pro, and Apogee (among others) make some great devices that connect via USB or Firewire, and will offer better sound out, which you can then connect either to an amplifier, studio monitors, or even PA gear.

    Go to Application ->Shared Components -> Edit Security Attributes , take the "*Session Timeout*" section
    The Maximum Session Idle Time in Seconds field is what you are looking for.

  • Is there any way to increase the storage on my iphone 4s?

    The only way to do that is to buy a new phone.

  • Is there any way to limit the number of RFC calls from xMII to SAP R/3

    Hi All!
    I wanted to know whether the number of simultaneous RFC connections made from xMII to SAP R/3 system can be controlled in any way. Suppose we have a scenario wherein some million Sales Orders or Production Orders are to be updated in SAP R/3 from xMII in a short span of time. For all these updations to take place, multiple RFC calls will be established from xMII to SAP at the same time. This will increase the load on the SAP R/3 system and affect performance of the SAP R/3 system. Is there any check on xMII side to limit the number of RFC calls that can be made to SAP R/3 system?
    Regards
    Anupam

    Anupam,
    If you are using 11.5 just keep in mind that the JCO connection points to a single application server (based upon the SAP Server alias connection settings), but the traffic itself to make a BAPI request is effectively the same as any client user traffic.  There will obviously be limitations on performance and throughput, with network and server constraints added to the number and size of the R/3 requests, but there is no magic formula to plug-in because of all of these variables.
    If you are using 12.0 (or plan to migrate when it goes GA) then taking advantage of the JRA (java resource adapter) and the associated application server pooling that it offers on the NetWeaver side of things will greatly help you in the throughput capacity.
    If you have put some of your xMII application into either test or productive use and are running into issues then I would highly recommend entering the specifics into the customer / partner support portal so that they can help you through any associated problems.
    Regards,

  • Is there any way to increase the amount of space for all day events?

    I have iCal on my ipad and my phone, and when I look at the daily view or weekly view, only 1 1/2 lines are shown. If I have a few events that are all day (I keep several calendars) then I have to scroll through them one at a time. And with my fingers, sometimes they go by too fast. Does anyone know how to increase the amount of space? I am using an iPad3, and an iPhone 5, both with ios 7.
    Thank you!

    With Mac OS X, there is no way for you to alter the amount of real memory a program is allocated. This is all done dynamically by the OS. OS X's virtual memory management is far better than 'ole OS 9's.
    What are saying about a memory leak? I take it that Safari is continually using more and more memory. How much memory is it usually taking up after a few hours? Perhaps you should just quit and restart Safari every few hours before it begins failing to respond.
