Repeat "File Info" data?

Hi folks,
This is probably a dumb question, so please bear with me.
I recorded a recent rehearsal session as a single audio file, and now want to split it up into discrete tracks.  No problems with all that, but I want each of the files to have certain repetitive information in the RIFF data -- notes on the rehearsal session, its date, that sort of thing -- and then some smaller amount of track-specific information that will change from file to file.
Is there any way to have this repeating information show up automatically in the "File Info" dialogue when I create a new audio file?
I tried filling it in and saving the complete master session as a working file with that info, but when I cut data from the working copy, create a new file and paste it in to create the new track, that Info data isn't carried across like i had hoped.  I can't find any way to specify the info in Preferences or set up a template ... is there another way to achieve what I'm trying to do?

I believe you'll see your expected behavior when using the "Save Selection As..." option, rather than pasting the selection into a new, empty file.  The Copy command in this case is only copying the waveform data - the metadata is attached to the file, not the data.  When saving a selection FROM a file, though, generally the metadata is copied as well since the source contains that information.

  • Can "File Info" data be deleted?

    Hello,
    Currently using FM11 and creating unstructured documents.  We make custom types of equipment and tend to start a new document from a previous version.  We'd like to delete the previous "File Info" data and update with current data for the new document.  We delete the "File Info" data and save the document, but when reopened, the data is still there.
    Thanks you in advance,
    WRB

    Is this a book, or a single FM document file?
    If a book, make sure you delete file info in the Book dialog, and just for good measure, if leaving empty, also make sure all of the component files have no File Info. I haven't tested it, but it wouldn't surprise me if FM uses the first-found when building the PDFinfo.
    In our release process, we routinely process the PDFs in Acrobat Pro, Examine Document, and let it remove (only) Metadata and File Attachements (since it's buggy on everthing else). Removing Metadata deletes almost all of the PDFInfo (FM File Info).
    We end up pasting the desired values back in, so that search engines can find our stuff. Some search engines may only index PDFinfo, either because that's all they do, or because that may be the only plaintext available if you have certain security settings.
    I suspect Google indexes everything, as long as it can open the PDF at all, even if it needs to OCR the whole thing.
    Attention Authors: on the Windows platform, your user/login name is often written to the PDFinfo by default. This is either a benefit or a hazard. If it's a benefit, it's not my problem .

  • The file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored

    We have been sending images out to contractors, and sometimes when they come back the files are having this error:
    the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored
    When I then try to Photoshop Script the file info it throws errors.  Does anyone know what causes this error to happen?
    Thank you

    ok, Thanks!, BUT here's the bigger issue:
    We use a lot of Photoshop Scripting, and the file info is how we direct all of our workflows.  when a file comes back with "the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored" error, the scripts are unable to read/write to any of the file info ever again.  So not only did we lose all the info already in the file, but we can't use the file at all after this.
    Additonally, we tried copying and pasting to new blank documents, but realized we needed all the paths, channels, and sampler points too.
    Is there anything anyone can think of to get around this probelm?  A setting, or a program to fix the metadata, etc?
    Thanks!!!

  • File Info XAP XMP XML

    I'm not having any luck trying to figure out how to store some XML data into an AI file using the SDK. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to accomplish what I am trying to do:<br /><br />My plugin is notified when the file is being saved.<br /><br />At this point, I extract some information, and want it to be stored with the file when it's saved, so it can be extracted later.<br /><br />If you open the AI file in a text editor, you will see that there is a readable XML packet (<x:xmpmeta>) near the top of the file.<br /><br />Using AIXMLDocumentSuite and AIXMLNodeSuite I'm able to save some nodes to the file, however, that information does -not- get stored in the human readable <x:xmpmeta> text packet at the top of the file. This is not good enough for my purposes.<br /><br />I tried using:<br /><br />AIDocumentSuite::GetDocumentXAP<br />Which seems to return exactly the information I'm referring to in the file.. Make modifications, then:<br />AIDocumentSuite::SetDocumentXAP<br /><br />My changes are not saved into the file. I suspect that maybe I write the data with Set, and then immediately afterward, as Illustrator finishes the saving process, it's overwritten.<br /><br />I need to insert my data into the AI structure somehow, so that it is written when the file is saved...<br /><br />This information is available through illustrator if you choose the menu options "File -> File Info" then click on "Advanced" in the list on the left.<br /><br />Does anyone know how I can properly manipulate this "File Info" data? and store custom information? There are no XML related examples in the Illustrator SDK, and very little documentation on how it is supposed to be used.<br /><br />Thanks in advance.

    Ok, I've made some progress on this issue, that being I finally forced my way to getting my data saved into the file.<br /><br />I talked about this a bit in another thread, but I'll reiterate here, hoping that someone else searching for solutions to this problem can know where to start.<br /><br />I did exactly as I suggested above:<br /><br />AIDocumentSuite::GetDocumentXAP<br /><br />Make modifications, then:<br /><br />AIDocumentSuite::SetDocumentXAP <br /><br />It was not easy to avoid the phenomenon I described above however.<br /><br />The modifications you make must comply with some undocumented rules; because if you pass some text in that does not pass the rule, all of your changes are discarded; replaced by whatever was there originally.<br /><br />There is no error reported. There should be an error when calling SetDocumentXAP if you pass in 'invalid' data, or at the very least, the valid data structure (schema) should be defined in the documentation (it's not).<br /><br />What I did was put all of my additions inside a <rdf:Description> tag and put it right after the other ones already in there.<br /><br />Sample:<br /><br />     <rdf:Description rdf:about=""<br />            xmlns:my_tagname="http://www.mycompany.com/1.0/"><br />         <my_tagname:my_metadata rdf:parseType="Resource"><br />            <my_tagname:my_parameter>value</my_tagname:my_parameter><br />            <my_tagname:my_data_1><br />               <rdf:Bag><br />                 <rdf:lirdf:parseType="Resource">                     <br /><my_tagname:my_parameter_2>Value</my_tagname:my_parameter_2><br />                     <my_tagname:my_parameter_3>Value</my_tagname:my_parameter_3><br />                     <my_tagname:my_parameter_4><br />                        <rdf:Seq>                        <br />                        <rdf:li>some data</rdf:li><br />                        <rdf:li>some data</rdf:li><br />                        </rdf:Seq><br />                     </my_tagname:my_parameter_4><br />                  </rdf:li><br />               </rdf:Bag><br />            </my_tagname:my_data_1><br />         </my_tagname:my_metadata><br />      </rdf:Description><br /><br />I hope this helps someone else.

  • Batch File Info problem: (CS3)

    As was the case with CS2, when in bridge adding file info. to multiple files, the data entered within Copyright Notice, Copyright Status and Copyright Info URL is shown as entered and correct when checking back the file info. within Bridge - However, if one of those files is then opened in Photoshop and the file info. is checked, the data entered is either incomplete or simply not being shown.
    This occurs when working working on TIFFS. When working with JPEG it does not.
    Process:
    1) Bridge - Adding file info.
    - Select multiple files.
    - Right click > File info
    - Enter file info. data.
    - Click ok.
    2) Bridge - Checking file info.
    - Select one of the files file info. has been applied to.
    - Right click > File info.
    - Check info. panels for correct data.
    - All appears correct and as entered.
    3) Photoshop - Checking file info.
    - Open one of the files file info. has been applied to.
    - Check file info:
    i) Having chosen Copyrighted as the option within Copyright Status, now appears untouched and defaults to Unknown!!
    ii)Data entered within Copyright Notice appears incomplete, showing only the first sentence and a half. (i.e 22 words, 107 characters (no spaces) 128 characters (with spaces))
    iii)Data entered within Copyright Info URL does not appear.
    I figured this would have been sorted for CS3?!
    For me this is a really major issue, your assistance and a fix are desperately, desperately needed.
    Kind regards

    I am using Vista, but have no problems with opening File Info on multiple files.

  • XMP data not showing up in the custom file info panels when upgraded to CC

    For several versions of Photoshop, I have been able to use a modified custom file info panel to input, update, and track psd files. With each version of photoshop there are always some changes in the way the object data is handled. The lastest challenge is:
    1. XMP data not showing up in the custom file info panels when upgraded CC from CS6.
    2. Raw data is not visible in CC in the File info panel.
    3. This occurs in new documents where we create the xmp wrapper while the file template is built.
    4. When metadata is manually entered into the file, the data is not added to the XMP wrapper when it is recreated on the save.
    5. When a file that was created in CS6 is opened that contains the Metadata in the file info template. It is visible. the Raw data is also visible. Once the XMP wrapper is recreated - write and then close. The data is no longer available. the Raw data will not pull up in the file info panel.
    Any feedback or a direction will be appreciated.

    I have a script that the user runs to input xmp data into a Customized version of the generic file info panel. it is data that is gathered from the user when the psd file is created. once the file is open in photoshop. the information is visible in the File info panel , the raw data, and as a schema addition in the advanced tab.
    in CC the nodes and the children of the XMP packet have changed positions. so that the XML -this.XMP.child(0).appendChild(this.createNode())
    is no longer the node that can be appended.
    Where XML.child(0).elements().length(); would enable the xmlns to be added in CS6
    <rdf:Description xmlns:phsa="' + this.namespace + '" xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#" xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" rdf:about="" />'
    it is visible in CC as namespace in a different arrangement. XML.child(0).child(0).namespaceDeclarations().toString()) and the children are  XML.child(0).child(0).elements().length().toString()); There are now 7 child nodes where before there were 1.
    with all shifted, the initialize of the values and the delete XMP packet wrapper and create new or the amend to the XMP packet wrapper is undefined.

  • Is there a date entry widget for XMP custom file info panels?

    Looking through the Custom File Info Panels documentation, the samples, and the default info panels presented in Photoshop, I can't find any reference to a date entry widget - the closest I've seen is the date_static_text widget.
    Is there any way to present an editable, validating date entry field to our end-users through the File Info panel?
    (the info we're wanting to store is a release date so it's user-specified, and not derivable from the file in any way)

    Mark,
    The PDF/A extension schema provides a big step to the self-sufficient functionality that you are asking about. It permits the XMP schema description information of custom XMP schemas to be embedded into the XMP as payload so that the file can be opened in years to come and the target metadata acurately interperted. Currently, PDF tools are active candidate to make use of this facility. However, there is nothing preventing future use with other file formats, and other tools (via plug-ins?).
    It does not include vocabulary, static text, and panel presentation layout information.
    http://www.pdfa.org/doku.php
    It defines a "known" subset of standard XMP properties from the 2001 XMP Spec. Everything else is "custom".
    You could craft a custom File Info "template" with the PDF/A extension for your custom XMP fields. Then import the template into each file.
    The PDF/A extension schema itself is implemented with multi-dimensional XMP arrays. MetaGrove Plug-in dialog screen shots can be viewed on http://www.poundhillsoftware.net/Acrobat.htm

  • File Info Panel to hit web service to fill out XMP data

    Hi there,
    Is there any way to use the File Info panel inside Indesign (for example) to hit a web service based info entered in a few fields which will return data to fill out the rest of the xmp data?
    Or would you have to write some sort of plugin to do this?
    I know Metagrove already does this, but it's a standalone plugin. We were wondering if anything can integrate directly into the File Info panel.
    Thanks,
    mark

    Do you have a proxy defined in your jdev? This might prevent reading from the address you specified.
    If you can access the url in a browser, you can store the WSDL on your local pc and use the local file to create the webServiceDataControl.

  • File info and IPTC data entry help?

    hello,
    having updated to P/S CS5, some of the file info box(es) changes have started to annoy me. Maybe I`m doing someting wrong :-(
    but what annoys me most is having created a template that I use when I import pictures through bridge, when I open it again the file info details in the description box are highlighted and the cursor jumps and goes to the last item in the box, I then have to drag the box down to make it larger, reposition the cursor to add further items, all this takes time especially on deadline where I might have 15 images to caption individually before sending.
    I have tried saving the file info template with a larger description box but no joy, it just reverts to the original size.
    My other main annoyance is the small font size, which when inputting lots of caption is to be honest, a pain. Maybe I need to use a seperate caption maker, any suggestions? or do I just need to spend a lot of time trying to not let this upset me.
    If anyone has a trick on how to input and caption file info any quicker or better I would really appreciate your help.
    thanks, Dave.

    when you insert/update the data in your db use
    <cfqueryparam> tag - it
    will automatically escape all necessary characters.
    at output, i assume you are displaying the data in a text
    input form
    field, the problem is not with cf or your data, but with the
    basic html:
    <input type="text"
    value="#some-cf-variable-with-double-quotes#">
    when the value of cf var contains double quotation marks, the
    rendered
    html will look like:
    <input type="text" value="0.36" in diameter">
    see where the problem is? the value displayed in the field
    will be just
    0.36, and the browser will ignore the rest of the code.
    cf has built-in functions to work around this, like
    xmlformat() or
    htmleditformat()

  • File info templates change creation date

    I created a couple of file info templates a number of years ago to apply to my pictures.
    However, whenever I apply these templates in PS (CS2, CS3 & CS4) the creation date of the photograph automatically changes to the creation date of the template!
    Is there a way of preventing this irritating problem?

  • Is there anyway to import my file title like img_001 into my file info so it will show up in my meta data.  I have 300 images and I was wonder if I could batch process them...

    Is there anyway to import my file title like img_001 into my file info so it will show up in my metadata?

    you can re-number files as you import
    you may need to a test of a few un-important files
    click the re-name file panel >>tick>>template>>click on arrows>>edit and that will take you the customize panel
    add image name like "img"
    then add numbering I have only used the first one (import)
    make sure you add two "00" so they stay in order
    should look like img-001
    bugga of a number tool imo; bridge is easier/better
    you could also rename in windows or bridge  or other programs before importing BUT ONLY IF THE FILES HAVE NOT BEEN IN LR ALREADY. Sorry to yell thats important as you most likely know
    Yell if that doesn't make sense

  • Read extended File Info of a jpg-file from a digital camera (recorded date etc.)

    Viewing stored digital pictures in the Windows Explorer or with Google Picasa you can get additional Informations from the picture file:

    How can I acces the informations with Labview

    Hi Eldracher,
    i´m not sure if there is a function in labview, but you can load your image as binary and search for your information. See this link for more information about the JFIF (jpg file interchange format) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_File_Interchange_Format.

  • Just opening InDesign file changes "Date Modified" date?

    Hi,
    Running InDesign CC w/ Mac 10.9.5 and if the file has say yesterdays date listed as the "Date Modified" in the file listing.
    If I just want to open the file just to take a quick look at the file without making any changes the "Date Modified" automatically changes to the exact time/date as opening the file.
    Why? I need the "Date Modified" to stay correct. 

    I've tried this experiment with InDesign 10 (CC2014) on my MacOS 10.9.5 system and do not see any changes to the OS modification date for the file. Same is true under Windows. And I tried doing some suspicious operations to the document such as printing and PDF export. Closed the document and checked the File Information. The Modification Date did not change. And it normally would not change unless you explicitly save the file. Anything else you are doing while reviewing the document? Again, we would like to help, but can't repeat your symptoms.
    BTW, an experiment to try is to “lock” the file using the MacOS Get Info dialog and then repeat your experiment. When opening the document in InDesign, you will see the window labeled as “read-only.” What happens when you subsequently close the document and look at the file modification date?
    And of course, I assume you are not confusing the file modification date with the “last opened” timestamp!

  • Using DW CS6 and PS CS6 "file info" causes crash+freeze

    Each time I try to use "File Info" in Photoshop or Dreamweaver CS6, a freeze, or crash is the result, and must force quit. Can't seem to find any specifics using keyword search of similar problem.
    The only thing I've done different lately is I've had to work with some 1.5+ GB images. Six MB ram held up okay, only slowing on some filters and a few tools, specifically the clone tool.
    Mac Pro (Early 2009)
    6 GB 1066 MHz
    OS X 10.8.5
    Thanks in advance...

    Did find from your path directions; however, the date of the last report is from 04/21/2013 and don't remember what activity was taking place, only that these recent freezes on using "File/File Info" repeatedly has only occurred over the last two days.
    As I stated previously, I had to physically initiate a "force quit" the application when above action opened a blank window with the only function available to me being the "expand" green icon button, and was not asked to submit crash report. Therefore, I'm assuming now, if no report goes out to Adobe, then none is saved in the crash report logs.
    Your response is helpful though in expanding my personal knowledge base, as I had never had a reason to research said reports up to this time. Over my twenty years of using Mac's and Adobe products for my personal use I've had remarkably few serious incidents.
    I certainly couldn't gain any information from viewing the report. HTML and CSS I'm comfortable with, but this (system inner workings) might as well be written in Latin.
    I do thank you for your attempt to help, and as I said, I have learned a little bit more; just not enough to attempt brain surgery yet.
