A way to force XMP sidecar file use with JPEG files?

I have a nice camera but it only saves in JPEG format. Once I rename the files and put my basic copyright info into the metadata, I like to mark them as read-only for safety. However, I want to be able to save the metadata that I enter in Lightroom 1.1 out to disk along with the files so that other programs can read it. I see that Lightroom will save in a separate XMP sidecar file if the photo is in one of those snobby RAW formats but not if it is in one of the low-life formats like JPEG. ;^)
Is there any way at all to get Lightroom to use a sidecar file with JPEGs or do I have to just risk it and let it edit my JPEG files every time I do anything? I'm sorry, but my lowly JPEG files are just as important to me as a RAW file is to someone else. They are my photographs and I want to protect them.

I'm not a pro so my backup routine is a little slip-shod. Sometimes I just grab a few files off the card, process them, and send the processed version out to whichever friend or relative is waiting impatiently for them.
I guess, I am most concerned about:
A) LR corrupting the working file and losing all the virtual edits. It is not easy for me to re-figure out what I did in the first place. Knowing about the safe-write technique helps.
B) Backing up just the edits. If the virtual/non-destructive edits were stored in separate .XMP files then I could back up those files to the same media as the original files and have them both together for future recovery operations. As it is, I now have to back up the entire working copy of the file in order to back up the edits. This creates two different versions of the file on my backup media, which will be harder to keep track of. Besides, .XMP files are small enough, and I would only be creating them for my better photos, so I could squeeze them onto the original backup media if I saved a bit of room. If I have to back up the entire modified file then it is less convenient.
C) When I write the metadata to the JPEG file, does it change the Windows modified date or creation date?

Replacing a file using 'Write JPEG File(6_1).vi'

when windows prompts for the file name to save the jpg, if I type in or choose an already existing file name, the jpg image fails to change. It works fine if I enter a unique file name. Any help?

I've tried to duplicate your error on both win 98 and xp, but cannot. I attached my test program along w/ a copy of Write JPEG just in case yours has been altered.
Perhaps you could post your own problematic vi.

How to edit a line in a file using a batch file??????

Basically i want to edit one line in a properties file, using a batch file, Here is what it says
#Minecraft server properties
#Tue Feb 22 15:58:36 PST 2011
level-name=world2
hellworld=false
spawn-monsters=true
online-mode=false
spawn-animals=true
max-players=5
server-ip=5.196.238.77
pvp=true
server-port=25565
white-list=false
The IP address needs to be changed, i have a hamachi server and a server for home but i need to change this to my ip address on my computer wich is 192.168.1.74. This needs to be changed back and forth so how can i make a batch that just runs and then done its been changed.

There are no .bat files in a Unix environment
#!/usr/bin/env bash
export NEW_IP=192.168.1.74
perl -ni -e '
s/d.d+.d+.d/$ENV{"NEW_IP"}/;
print;
' yourpropertiesfile
Make sure you change the file's protections so they are executable
chmod +x nameof_yourscript
There are other ways to do this, I just choose a perl script within a bash script. You could do it all with a bash script, you could use awk, you could use sed, you could use python, ruby, etc...

XMP files remain with NEF files in my folder. Camera Raw suddenly reset leaving my edits gone. Will XMP files enable me to resume with those lost edits?

XMP files remain with NEF files in my folder. Camera Raw suddenly reset leaving my edits gone. Will XMP files enable me to resume with those lost edits?

I never tried this, but I'm pretty sure that with DNG files, Lightroom will ignore xmp files, even when you instruct Lightroom to "Read Metadata from File". Lightroom expects all the metadata to be in the DNG file, not in the xmp file.
Pick flags, as far as I know, are never written to xmp file; nor are they written to DNG files.
If you're going to make this transfer procedure work, you need to do it by either (a) embedding the metadata in the DNG file and send those back and forth; or (b) use RAW and xmp and then sending the xmp files back and forth (plus I guess you have to transfer the original RAW once to your editor)

Importing multiple files using the Import File menu.

For some reason I am never able to add more the 5 mp3 files using the Import File menu. All of my files are located on the NAS device and if I select the Import Folder menu all the files in the folder will be imported. However, time after time I add more files to the same folder and then need to import just the new files to iTunes. For that I am using the Import File menu. If select more then 5 files, only 5 files will be imported. Some times I have 100 new files that I want to add, and moving 5 files a time is time consuming and painful. I try opening the folder, selecting all files and dropping them into iTunes, but that did not work. Is there a way to import more than 5 files at a time, or iTunes is not capable doing that?

I am often surprised how many ways there are to add songs to iTunes. Selecting a number in the open file dialog must have a maximum string length for the file names. I bet that the path and file name are long on those songs and that is why you can only load 5 at a time from your NAS. What I have had luck with and is very easy is to select a group of songs and right click and "play" them. My iTunes is set to import and organize on play. The first song starts playing and they all load. I routinely do this with entire albums without problem.

How can I use a JPEG file as a background image for my vi in 8.5

Im working on a vi that I plan on using as part of an alarm system. I would like to use a JPEG file of my house as a background image for the vi, or possibly to just be displayed in a window on the control panel. I have seen people use their own images before, but never looked at what this involved.
Im trying to use the "read JPEG file" vi and the "draw flattened pixmap" vi to accomplish this. The vi does run, but nothing shows on the front panel. If I try to create an indicator from the "new picture" output of the "draw flattened pixmap" vi, I get an empty white window on the front panel.
Any advice?
Thanks
Solved!

the earlier vi (using the JPEG) works fine. just increase the size of the picture control
I figured this was the problem. And to the OP, I'm glad a bitmap worked, but no I didn't mean use any sort of LabVIEW programming at all. I meant open your image in Microsoft Paint, Press ctrl+A to select the whole thing. Then copy the image to the clipboard. Now select your front panel and press ctrl + v to paste it. No programming needed and the image is there. However, if you want to programmatically change it, you will need a picture control.

Project Preset to use with m2t files in CS4

I capture HD video from my Sony HDR-HC9 using the Sony capture utility. The Sony capture utility can divide the capture into datestamp clips, while Premiere Capture just does it as one file (If I am wrong about this please let me know).
I want to know what project preset I should use with these files. I want to edit HD at the best fidelity possible since I want to be able to export to various media types from DV mpg (for my cable access shows), youtube, DVD, and blue ray.
I just bought a Sony VPC-F1190X with Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 installed. So far it works beautifully with the m2t files with the HDV 1080i30(60i) preset or with the ACH-I 100 1080i60.

Dynamic file path with Synchonous File Read

Hello,
I have a scenario where there are multiple files in multiple directories that I need to read in using a synchonous file read. The directory paths are all different, but the files are all .txt files.
1. How can I filter (i.e. *.txt) the files using a synchronous file read. It doesn't give me that option in the wizard.
2. I already have the directory paths, but I need to assign that path string to the file adapter call out. The wizard states that I have to specify the path. Can this be done using an assign or something like that? Inbound Header? And if so how?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
1 - if not possible....you cannot set filter for synchronous read.
2 - you can create outbound header for file adapters, change the outbound header xsd to include one more element "directory".
close bpel project re-open it and you can then assign it runtime. That should work. I am quite positve about this.

Changing the setting from PDF file to a JPEG file.

Is there a way I can change the scan setting on my printer. It is a HP Deskjet F4480. I want to change the setting from PDF file to a JPEG file. I want to scan them so I can see them on my screen saver.

This has nothing to do with Acrobat. See the documentation for the scanner software that came with your scanner.

To Import XSD file along with WSDL file in ED

Dear All,
I am doing a scenario web service1 XIRFCweb service2. Web service1 sends request to XI and XI sends to RFC and RFC response to web service2 and web service2 response (acknowledge) back to XI and XI sends back to web service1.
My client (web service2) has given me the web service (WSDL) file along with XSD file.
In the wsdl file there are number of elements and complex types.
<xs:element name="GetCustomer">
     <xs:complexType>
          <xs:sequence>
               <xs:element name="authentication" type="xx:AuthInfo"/>
               <xs:element name="CompanyName" type=" xx:AuthInfo "/>
          </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
The type (xx:AuthInfo and xx:AuthInfo) are defined in XSD file.
My questions are
1)     Do I have to import the XSD file in ED or not.
2)     How do I map this XSD
3)     As WS1, RFC and WS2 all are synchronous MT do I have to use BPM for it.
4)     Can some one help with any docs please..
Thanks in advance

Hi,
>>Do I have to import the XSD file in ED or not
If you are having the wSDL files then you can take the structure from there itself. Just import the wsdl files in IR. You can also use XSD.
>>How do I map this XSD
XSD are same as Message Types. So create a MM and choose your XSD.
>>As WS1, RFC and WS2 all are synchronous MT do I have to use BPM for it.
Yes you have to because you are taking the responce from RFC and going to give it to WS2.
BPM steps:
1) receive (open sync bridge)
2) transformation 1
3) send (snyc)
4)transformation 2
3) send (close sync bridge)

Hi Guys,
Im trying to create a repository .I have a single node OVM server and have presented two LUN's (Hitachi HUS110 direct attached (via FC))
I've created a server pool and unchecked the clustered server pool. I see the LUN's (physical disk from Oracle Virtual manager) .But when creating the repository i'm having this error

Hi Robert,
did you actually add the OVS to the server pool, that you created?
