1080 50i disadvantages and editing problems?

I am about to buy cosumer camera Sony HDR CX350ve. It records in AVCHD 1080 50i footage. I am in big doubt because of this interlaced scaning and all of discussions about film-like or no film like look. What it is all about?
How Premiere CS4 deals with 50i during editing? When i will see artifacts? What is the best way to convert to progressive scanining?
What i will see on 1080p LCD? Is this interlaced scaning really worse than progressive?
I really like this camera but I don't want to regret buying it while editing footage. Please help.

Nothing worth mentioning. But let's be practical, many users only edit and export interlaced material, you have no way to export to 25P on BRD or DVD, PC players like VLC or MPC automatically correct interlaced material for display on a progressive monitor, just as flatscreen TV's do.
Jeff's tutorial is great in NTSC land, but not in PAL land to introduce that "Filmic / Stuttering" look. The software solution is the best approach in NTSC land to create the stutter, not here. IMO even a software solution is only a band-aid, and does interpolate between fields to create a frame which will always entail mathematical inaccuracies and errors. If the information is not there, you can't create the information in post. So it will by definition look softer than the original. Converting i material to P will work reasonably nice on static shots, but not on fast moving shots or fast pans.

    Hi
    Not sure if this is a Fireworks or Dreamweaver problem but
    here goes.
    I¹ve created a graphic in Fireworks CS3 on the Mac and

    table could not be found in the HTML. Please export from

    What?!!
    I¹ve only just exported it from Fireworks! It¹s

    When you export the sliced graphics from Fireworks it places
    them into a
    table. In my instance the code says...
    <!-- fwtable fwsrc="Brands.png" fwpage="Page 1"
    fwbase="Brands.jpg"
    fwstyle="Dreamweaver" fwdocid = "325827661" fwnested="0"
    -->
    So it recognises Fireworks was the the graphics app and jumps
    back to it
    when you want to edit the image. Fireworks then displays (or
    should) a
    ŒDone¹ button over the window. You do your alts and
    press Done to update the
    HTML and graphics back in Dreamweaver automatically.
    That¹s the only table I was referring to Murray.

  • Balanced Scorecard web presentation and editing problems

    Hi all,
    I am working with BSC on SEM-BW 6.0 - when I access the web presentation/editing transactions (UMB_LAUNCHPAD_WEB and UMB_CUST_WEB) I can not see any graphics like cause-and-effect chain and other graphic stuff. Since the cause-and-effect chain can be only modeled on the web with this version, this is a real problem. I know this is due to the right or wrong Java Runtime Environment. Can anybody help me on this? Which JRE version do I need installed on my PC to have the graphics work?
    Thanx in advance and waiting for your hints

    What you need from your old Mac is a file titled Domain.sites2 which will be located in the your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder where the home folder is the one with this icon:
    Find that file and move/copy it to the same folder on your new Mac.  If there is none go to the Application Support folder and create an "iWeb" folder.
    If you do not have that  domain file you will have to start over from scratch and rebuild your site.  iWeb cannot import published html files.  However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.
    To publish to a 3rd party FTP client I suggest you publish your site first to a folder on your hard drive and then use the free FTP client Cyberduck to upload the site folder and its index.html file to the server.

  • IMovie Storage and editing Problems

    I am new to this! Transfering DV tape approx 1 hour to IMOVIE
    message comes up "Not enough space on disc". (using Macbook)..I have fitted a firewire Lacie 250mb ext hd., run IMOVIE from there but it wont let me use this as a default drive. How do I do this please so I can (a) transfer intially and (b) edit?
    macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Make sure the LaCie drive uses the disk format iMovie requires. If it doesn't, iMovie won't be happy.
    The project MUST reside on a disk that uses the "Mac OS Extended" disk format (optionally followed by "Journaled"). If the disk uses some other format, iMovie can't reliably save the project to disk.
    Internal disks use the correct format, but many FireWire drives purchased off the shelf use a different format. When you buy a disk, always check the format.
    To check the format, Control-click on the disk icon in the Finder and choose "Get Info" from the popUp menu. The disk format is shown in the window that opens.
    If necessary, use Disk Utility to reformat the disk. WARNING: that erases all the files on the disk, so make backups.
    It doesn't hurt to reformat a new disk anyway. A freshly-formatted disk is more reliable. Some users have reported iMovie problems going away after reformatting an external disk that already had the "right" format. Disks can have problems that reformatting solves.

  • Editable ALV - Particular Lines Display and Edit Problem

    Hi,
    I have developed a program which updates the Custom tables in the database.
    I am using cl_gui_alv_grid in the module pool program. I am making all the fields editable using ls_fcat-edit = 'X'.
    But as per my requirement in the change mode of the same data base entry, the user should not be able to change the existing data (like PO line items).
    My requirement is for a particular Purchase Order if there are line items, when I open the Purchase Order in the change mode all the existing line items should be in display mode and I need to provide the user to add more lines.
    Say the PO has 3 line items, in the Grid, it should be like all the existing 3 line items should be in display mode and rest of the lines should be in editable mode which will give the option for the user to add more line items for the same PO.
    Here it is not Purchase Order,  I just compared as an example.
    Logic I am using.
    I am building the internal table with a serial numbers from 1-99 and this particular column will be in display mode in the ALV Grid. Using the class cl_gui_alv_grid.
    Capturing all the data entered using event handler with method handle_data_changed.
    Please tell me how do I set the particular lines in display mode and others in editable mode within the same internal table.
    Thanks

  • Avchd-1080/50i problem

    Hello! I have a sony HDR-AX2000 (avchd) , I film in 1080/50i FX and I import from the cam into final cut pro x(I also use apple prores).
    Yesterday I noticed that my project properties were incorrect: format-1080iHD  resolution-1920x1080 rate-25i.
    I filmed in 1080/50i FX (24mbps)... So.. how can I modify my project? Do I must import the footage another time?(I have the footage on the cam)
    PS: I can also rec. in 1080/50i FH (17 mbps) or 1080/50i HQ (9mbps) or 1080/50i LP (5 mbps) or 1080/25 p FX or 1080/25p FH... Is one of these formats best for fcpx?
    Sorry for my English, I'm italian!!! Write me soon... it is very important!!!

    50i is a stupid nomenclature. It means your video is 50 fields, 25 frames per second. FCP rightly uses the nomenclature 25i or 25p to indicate media that's 25fps either interlaced or progressive. Your media is 25i.

  • Editing Mixing 720 50p mts h264 and 1080 50i  xdcam mxf

    Hi all, I'm going to shoot an event this weekend on XDCAM 1080 50i, I will probably need some B roll and and I was thinking to add my lil handycam and test it in 720 50p...
    I plan to output mainly on a blu ray, but it will definitely end up on youtube and vimeo as well.
    The handycam is able to 1080 50i as well so am I looking for trouble trying this?
    Thanks

    Output to BDR is usually 1920 x 1080i/25. I would use both the lil camera and the XDCAM at 1080i/25 to avoid scaling and frame blending. Uprezzing is always a bad idea, it costs too much quality, downrezzing makes no sense if both cameras support 1080i/25 and shooting P makes no sense since BDR only supports i/25 and not p/25.

  • CUIC 8.5 - Problem with Save As and editing reports

                CUIC 8.5.2.  I have users set up with Roles of Login User, Dashboard Designer, Report Designer, Report Definition Designer and Value List Collection Designer.  They also have Read Execute and Write Permissions.  Problem is, if they run a stock report, the Save As, and Edit options on the report are greyed out and inactive.  What is missing in order for users to be able to create custom reports?  Any help would be appreciated.

    I might have ran into this at some point last year, I think (but I could be wrong) if you setup the write permissions for  the user group, it should then fix it for everyone.  You might want to give that a spin in case you have a lot of individual users.
    Glad the solution worked though.  Thanks for the points.

  • I have installed ACDSee Pro3 and have problem to transfer photofiles from device: I got the message; The item could not be edited because you do not have sufficent access privileges or destination volume is no longer available." What can I do?

    I have installed ACDSee Pro3 and have problem to transfer photofiles from device: I got the message; The item could not be edited because you do not have sufficent access privileges or destination volume is no longer available." What can I do?

    Ask the ACDSee Pro support personnel. 
    With iPhoto that message means the library is a referenced library (photo not copied when imported into iPhoto's structure) and the source file is not where it was when first added to the library.  I don't know how ACDSee works. Does it have a referenced mode as opposed to copying photos into its structure?

  • I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD. I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally and vertically. I shoot with a camcorder Canon

    I have problems with my films that become slightly jerky after I have imported
    and edited them in iMovie and then burned them onto a DVD using iDVD.
    I can see the weak jerkiness when panning in both laterally
    and vertically.
    I shoot with a camcorder Canon Vixia HF10. The camera has been set to deliver HD quality (1920x1080). But I have accidentally filmed with a frame rate of 60 (?).
    When I import the films in iMovie I have been asked if I want to change to frame rate 30 (instead of 25). I have chosen 30.
    Could it be the setting of a frame rate 60 in my camcorder that causes jerkiness when panning or what else?

  • Updated iPhoto 11 and cannot open Events with double click or any other way. I can only view those photos by creating an album from all of them, then I can open the album and edit or delete etc.  Any one have that problem?

    After upgrading to iPhoto 11 and the latest upgrade 9.4.1 (701 67) I cannot open any Event.  The normal double click does not work, nor anything else I have tried. The only way I can view the photos in an Event is to make an Album of it, and then I can easily open it with a double click and edit and delete, arrange photos etc.  Anyone have this problem. Any ideas about how to open an event?

    Try trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder.
    (On 10.7: Hold the option (or alt) key while clicking on the Go menu in Finder to access the User Library)
    (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    What's the plist file?
    For new users: Every application on your Mac has an accompanying plist file. It records certain User choices. For instance, in your favourite Word Processor it remembers your choice of Default Font, on your Web Browser is remembers things like your choice of Home Page. It even recalls what windows you had open last if your app allows you to pick up from where you left off last. The iPhoto plist file remembers things like the location of the Library, your choice of background colour, whether you are running a Referenced or Managed Library, what preferences you have for autosplitting events and so on. Trashing the plist file forces the app to generate a new one on the next launch, and this restores things to the Factory Defaults. Hence, if you've changed any of these things you'll need to reset them. If you haven't, then no bother. Trashing the plist file is Mac troubleshooting 101.

  • Problems opening and editing Olympus OM-D E-M1 files

    Hi,
    I have a new Olympus OM-D E-M1 camera. It produces (pretty great) video's of the .MOV format, H.264.
    However, I am not able to open, view and edit these files in Premiere Pro CS5.
    Some more information:
    - Video format .MOV, H.264, 1080p 29.97fps
    - Windows 7 machine, 6Gb ram, reasonably fast video card and quad core chip. Editing of other video formats with the same HD specs is no problem (e.g. mp4 or avi)
    - Video's play just fine in Quick Time and in the proprietary Olympus Viewer 3 software and in Windows Media player
    - Video's will import and I can put them on the timeline but very slowly.
    - They usually do not open in the Source monitor, or show just 1 frame
    - The sound sometimes plays fragments (as if it is reading the files very slowly)
    - It does not play a preview
    - I can export a sequence that I put on the timeline, for example to an MP4 which is then fine, but rendering and exporting takes forever, up to hours for 4 mins of film
    I am thinking that Premiere Pro somehow does not know where to find the right codecs for importing these videos, because they must be on my computer somewhere with QuickTime and Olympus Viewer. Anyone know how to tell PP how to find/use these?
    Please let me know if you need any more information to help me solve this problem.
    Thanks, Bastienne

    I made a screen dump of the folder in Olympus Viewer that is named Movie.
    It has some files which seem to be involved in codec. Please take a look if there is anything useful there .
    btw there is only one folder in Movie (AsFilter) and there is also only one folder in AsFilter (MP4), so there is no folder called MOV or similar, strangely enough.
    There may be one other interesting .dll file called CodecHelper.dll in the Olympus Viewer 3 root.

  • Resizing and editing Components Design - Some problems and questions at CQ5

    Hello everyone,
       I'm building a website application following the http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/howto/website_quick.html guide (using the cq 5.5). The thing is, when I drop an image component on the site and drop some image into this one, the component resize my image. Even if I double click the image component and change the size, there's kind of a "maximum" size. I don't wanna change this one by css properties because if my user change the picture or drop a new one in the page, the change will not be applied to this new one.
      So, my question is, there's a way to configure the component to get the size i'm inputing on the dialog, without "limits"? Below some images of what i'm doing.
      The second problem I found is with the "text & image component". I've inserted the "right" alignment for the image in the styles tab, but the image stays on top of the text, and there's nothing I can do to solve this in the input dialog. Don't wanna use the css for the same reason that I've explained before.
      All the components are imported from fundation.
      So, there is something I can do to change the design of my components?
    Thanks in advance,
    Matheus de Oliveira.

    For the issue you are having with the maximum size there are couple of possiblity.
    The firstpossiblity is that your CSS is enforcing a maximum size. So to check this take the src from you img tag and put in a browser and see if you get the original size or not. If you get the right size when viewing the image URL than you do in the page than the issue is CSS. Depending on how you have designed your site's CSS there might be any number reasons it's limiting the image size but whatever the reason it's an implementation question.
    The second option is that design mode of the image component. The default install has a maximum image size set in design mode of the image component. Switch your page to design mode and verify that the maximum image size is not set in the design dialog.
    A final option is that the DAM is enforcing the maximum size. In CQ 5.5 the default configuration is to create a web ready rendition with a maximum height and width fo 1200 x 1200. The out of the box components and the out of the box image rendering script will use this web ready rendition if it is present rather than the original image.
    To check if this is your problem do the following:
    Go to the workflow model console and edit the Update Dam Asset workflow.
    Delete the step in the workflow named Web Ready Rendition
    Upload a new image that is larger than 1200 x 1200 to the DAM
    Try and use that image in an image component - it should display at the original size.

  • Problems displaying and editing long documents on small pages sizes

    Problems displaying and editing long documents on small page sizes
    I read this problem have called with the helpdesk they didn't know the solution but how can I find the solution:
    In Pages 09, I can't scroll down andand click on text to edit it!! All the mouse will do is draw gray transparentboxes and not place the cursor in the text. Again, like the display problem, itdoesn't happen at the beginning of the doc, but starts showing up around 50 to60 pages in ... I can't select text at the bottom of pages ... at 50 pages, thecursor can be clicked into anyplace on a page. Further and further down, the unselectablearea on any particular page creeps up from the bottom line by line: at 175pages in the unselectable area is 12 lines high; at 360 pages in theunselectable area is 25 lines high. and finally at around 440 pages down, Icannot place the cursor anywhere on any page all the way to the end of thedocument.
    I have Page versie 4.1

    What you get was described here several times.
    As we are end users like you, we can't change the app behavior.
    Under 10.6.8 you have the buttons allowing you to scroll one line up or one line down.
    Under Lion they are no longer available.
