AE overwrites existing rendered video?

I am struggling to keep existing rendered video in it's original condition. AE is somehow overwriteing my (rendered) video files as I make changes to new videos... Is this even possible? and how can I keep this from ever happening again? Lost hours and hours of roto-brush work... Please help.

Sorry, I guess I was just a little brief in my description. Let me try to get into a little more detail. I have 2 projects I am working on for a video game website. The first is an advertisement introduction video, the second is a seperate advertisement video. In the first video, I used a 10 minute clip that I intend on using for both projects. I spent some time roto-scoping out part of the video, to use in the first Ad. It came out exactly how I wanted it, rendered the file out as Intro_Short.mov. I moved on to the second Ad video and used this same clip again, only a different time frame in the clip. I spent hours roto-scoping out a different aspect of the clip. Once I completed the 2nd Ad, I rendered it out as Ad_True_Color.mov. Apparently, as I made changes to the new video, my old videos using that same footage, have been overwritten to the new roto-brush use. I have made numerous drafts and copies of each, and Ae is somehow overwriting the previously rendered files. I am very confused, and wish it were as simple as saving two files by the same name. Thank You very much for your time. I appreciate it alot. I think this is gonna make me lose my mind.

Is there a way we can edit and improve existing youtube videos by using premiere pro? Just simple changes like having professional looking opening and closing credits?

Assuming you do not have access to the "original" video/project and the YouTube video is the only copy, there is a method. Try "YouTube Downloader" which is a free software that allows you to download clips from YouTube as .mp4 files. You can then edit with Premiere, and re-encode again for upload to YouTube. Just keep in mind that you are re-compressing the video so there will be some quality loss. The better the quality of the original, the better the copy will hold up.

Need help saving a rendered video in Premiere Elements 13...

I have a rendered video that I am ready to save to my computer. The last Premiere Elements program I had was 1.0 lol. In 1.0, I would select to export the video as .avi and use that to burn to a dvd. In Premiere Elements 13, "export" is grayed out. What it looks like I need to do now is Publish the rendered video, but I don't know what to select to save it to my computer for future burning to a Blue Ray Disc. I plan on using Nero to burn the video to BD. Any help would be appreciated.

File Menu/Export/Movie is last seen in Premiere Elements 7. Now File Menu/Export/Title remains.
Your export opportunities for Premiere Elements 13/13.1 are in the Publish+Share area of the program. Have you updated 13 to 13.1 yet using an opened project's Help Menu/Updates? If not, consider doing so.
What are the properties of your source media on the Timeline that is destined for Nero for your burn to Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc?
Have you considered taking your Timeline directly to Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc in Premiere Elements 13/13.1 using Publish+Share/Disc/Blu-ray?
Depending on your reply to the above, you could explore for your file....

Overwrite existing file not working for FTP

Hi XI Folks,
I am trying not to overwrite the file at receiver - FTP server.
It is getting overwritten though I uncheck 'Overwrite existing file' checkbox in FTP. But the same is working fine for NFS. Please find the config details below.
Receiver communication channel Configuration:
Transport Protocol : FTP
File construction mode: Create
Put File: Use temporary file
Overwrite existing file : Not checked
The file is getting overwritten. Iam in SP15.
Receiver Communication channel Configuration:
Transport Protocol : NFS
File construction mode: Create
Write mode: Use temporary file
Overwrite existing file : Not checked
The file is not getting overwritten. It throws an error in Message monitor with wait status.
Is the "overwrite exist file - checkbox" works only for NFS & not for FTP.
eagerly expecting relevant response,
Kiruthika S

Sasi,
If we have two files with the same name then what do you want to do? It is the same scenario here? If you dont check the overwrite existing file option then it can write the file also. If you check then it will overwrite. If you dont want this then you can add the timestamp to the existing file. Else you have to make sure of the naming conventions of the file.

I saved my completed rendered video in Publish and Share as an MP4, but where is the file saved to. I set it to be saved on my desktop, but I don't see it. thanks

What version of Premiere Elements and what computer operating system? You have a few other threads awaiting follow up, and consequently that information
is not available elsewhere.
What is your specific export...
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
and Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or something like that.
Specific please.
But what specifically are you entering in the Save In: field of the dialog that includes the Save button to initiate the export process.
Are you saving it as a file to the Desktop or to a specific folder on the Desktop? Have you given the export a distinctive file name?
The screenshot shows the Save In: to the Desktop as a file.
I have no idea of your background with the program, so I ask these questions so as to take nothing for granted.
If the computer Desktop is crowded, as mine often is, it is easy to have difficulty spotting a file save to the Desktop.
We will be watching for your follow up.
Thank you.

Rendering video issue, NEED HELP BAD

I downloaded after effects CS4 and my composition settings is 600x400, square pixels, 29.97fps.
I rendered the video with these settings:
Photo JPEG
Million Colors
29.97 FPS
BEST quality
well the rendered video keeps on skipping as soon as it hits the first keyframe, it starts to skip throughout the whole video. I tried testing that in cs3 using the exact settings and it played smoothly.
Is it the FPS causing it to skip?
Thanks!

What are you saying by "skipping"? During playback in QT or when re-importing? In both cases you would only see discrete frames which should not flicker/ jump/ skip. Only RAM previews occasionally would, due to the timebase correction and possible mixing of framerates in combination with your screen refresh. If you are within AE, you may wish to check your OpenGL settings. For QT player the results should be identical. The only thing I can think of otherwise, is the frames not being stored correctly in the first place, which usually is a matter of your system choking when using multiprocessing, so turn it off or adjust the settings...

I've had a problem with previewing rendered video files

Hey guys, I'm Justin,
thanks in advance.
so when I render video files in fce, the video usually renders fine, but on the canvas the video just replays the first and last frame of the rendered video, making it look like a jumbled mess. but, when I export it as a quicktime file it runs just fine, I think the problem is in my canvas and I don't know how to fix it.
Also I recently upgraded my system from 2gb of ram to 4gb of ram, can fce recognise this or do I need to do something fancy
Thank you so much,
Justin

Hello, Justin, and welcome to the forum.
Where is the video coming from and how are you getting it into FCE? Almost always, your best bet is to convert your media into a format with which FCE works natively before you bring it into the program. If you do that, rendering and lots of other issues are minimized.

Importing existing flash video files??

howdy
quick question. if you import existing flash video files into an encore project, will this help reduce the final render time? or will encore rerender the existing flash video files?
cheers

Encore CS3 won't import FLV files. You must render the project to Flash.
You may want to file a feature request at Adobe's support page asking for support for Flash-ready assets, to eliminate the need to transcode in Encore.

Why not allow Business Rule Design Transformer to overwrite existing BRDDs

Hi,
It can be quite annoying during development to continually having to remove the BRDD Trigger and PL/SQL Definition when running the BR Design Transformer reveals missing information in the BR Analysis definition. It seems that it would be practical to have at least the option to have the Business Rule Design Transformer overwrite an existing Business Rule Design Definition.
You could think of an additional parameter in this utilily labeled "Overwrite existing BRDD?" with allowable values Y(es) and N(o) with No as default (so that the default functionality is the same as before).
Below you find the code that can be added to the HSU_BRTR package to realize such a functional improvement. Maybe you can consider it for a next release...?!

Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

Procedure to Overwrite Existing Reports in Salesforce

I've been looking around and can't seem to find the proper procedure for overwriting existing reports in Salesforce. While we are on that topic, what is the procedure for uploading new reports? What needs to be checked, filled out, clicked?
Whenever I try to overwrite a report, it says there was a database connection error. I have to delete the report and re-upload it.

To add a bit more to what Steve wrote:
While we are on that topic, what is the procedure for uploading new reports?
It depends on the report and it's data source. If you are using an onpremise data source, you would need to have implemented the Open Data Connector on site and then you can set your reports to point to that web service. The other option there is for reports from Excel files that exist in crystalreports.com. There is another forum post on that topic. For Salesforce.com reports, I cover that below.
What needs to be checked, filled out, clicked?
For Salesforce.com, you typically don't need to check anything related to the data source. crystalreports.com will automatically know about the data source. When a user runs the report, it will automatically use their Salesforce.com security token to run the report.
If you want, you are able to "hard-code" the user credentials for the report. To do that, you can check the "Other data source" radio button and then input your user name/password. The password is encrypted and masked. In this case, you want to very careful as to which users have access to that report. Some customers use this to give some access to Salesforce.com data in a report that users might not have access to within Salesforce.com itself.
Do make sure that you do not upload a report with saved data unless you intend users to see that "snapshot" of data. Otherwise, the report does not refresh by default.
Whenever I try to overwrite a report, it says there was a database connection error. I have to delete the report and re-upload it.
I thought I remember seeing something before happening with a report that I was trying to overwrite. It was not consistent so I was not sure if it was just something wrong with my report. What I did to resolve it was to overwrite the report with some .rpt file that did not use a Salesforce.com data source. Then I overwrote it again with the intended Salesforce.com data source report. I believe that reset the connection properly.

How does one overwrite existing text?

One can do plenty of clever formatting in drafting Thunderbird correspondence. But I am unable to find how one overwrites existing text. Can someone help, please?

please I am having trouble understanding. But here goes what I think your asking.
When you reply in an interleaved fashion as you did with my email, you need to break the previous message by pressing enter to get your own text area to type in. I saw a discussion on one of the develop0er list the other day where they were suggesting that some of the font information is bleeding back and forth in these situation and brainstorming what to actually do about it. That is just a discussion as yet. See https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tb-planning/ZYusepcRj-k
One of the best option in my opinion is to use the quote and compose managerhttps://freeshell.de/~kaosmos/quoteandcomposemanager-en.html as it preserves the vertical lines Thunderbird shows while editing in the outgoing message to make it clear where the interleaved information is located. It also has a stabilize font option that has helped many. (The author is Italian, so Italian locales of his add-ons are always available)

11.1.2.1 - Overwrite Existing Values - Not Working

Hi,
Client has ASO Essbase application. They have duplicate rows of data apparently. I have the 'Overwrite existing values' box checked on the 'Data Load Settings'. I also select the 'Overwrite Existing Values' selection in the 'Data Load' window. Not sure why this is even there as it seems new or is a ASO specific functionality or something. Anyways, I created a simple file with two duplicate rows. When I load it using the rule, it doubles everything up. Then I load just a single row file with same rule and it successfully overwrites the values and loads properly.
Is there a know issue with duplicate rows within the same file that causes it to double the values during the load? Or am I fundamentally missing something on how to correctly 'Overwrite Existing Values'?

Found below out there in the documentation but trying to decipher it. If I understand the 'Buffer' will combine like rows withing a datasource automatically? But I can't figure out if that's in different source files only or within the same file?'
Rules File Differences for Aggregate Storage Data Loads
Rules file specifications for loading values to aggregate storage databases reflect the aggregate
storage data load process.
For block storage data loads, through the rules file, you choose for each data source whether to
overwrite existing values, add values in the data source to existing values, or subtract them from
existing values.
For aggregate storage data loads using the aggregate storage data load buffer, you make this
choice for all data load sources that are gathered into the data load buffer before they are loaded to the database.
To use a rules file that was defined for a block storage outline with an aggregate storage outline, first associate the rules file with the aggregate storage outline. See “Associating an Outline with an Editor” in the Oracle Essbase Administration Services Online Help.
For aggregate storage databases only:
•     If you are loading data and values exist in the database, select an option from the Data load values drop-down list for overwriting existing values, adding to existing values, subtracting from existing values, or replacing the contents of the database.
•     Select whether to ignore missing values and zero values in the data source.
•     Select whether to load the data as a new slice in the database.

How to overwrite existing DB's in SQL 2008?

I use Maintenance Plan of SQL 2008 Server for Backup some DB's. As a result i need to keep, only one set of Backup Up's and not more. So actually i can use Maintenance Plan Clean Up wizard, but i need something like Overwrite. That mean
i don't want do delete DB's after i finish Backup UP, but i want to overwrite existing backups?
Thanks.

Maintenance Plans are great as a base starting point for, "maintenance". They provide quick, easy setup and just get something in when in some cases, a fulltime DBA is not around.
Uri's recommendation on avoiding Maintenance Plans probably should have come with an explanation with such a strong statement. I'm guessing with the following, there will be an agreement...
Maintenance Plans, like I said, offer quick development of maintenance tasks. However, you can find yourself being restricted if you only use them for all of your maintenance tasks. This proves to make it difficult when you start getting further
into truly managing your database servers as they grow. Now, WITH INIT is an option form memory in the BACKUP Task but given the task, the conversion to calling the BACKUP DATABASE [db] TO DISK=N'filepath' WITH INT is a pretty quick change (at this point).
It will allow you to better understand the tasks you are refining as well. But, you do have the ability to leave it there.
I'm also not fully agreeing that WITH INIT is your best option if you want to retain backup history. If you do not, then by all means, INIT it all day. You may want to consider bringing this into SSIS or even a more structure TSQL statement to
dynamically create backup files by timestamps so you can at least retain some historic recovery abilities. Possible this is something of a secondary backup so that is based on my assumptions

After rendering, video track turns a solid green?

Using FCE 3.5, after rendering video, the audio track works, but the video track is all just a solid green frame. No video whatesover, only green. Any ideas on how to fix this??? Thanks so much.

First, what effect(s) are you applying? Are there settings in the effect that might be turning the video green? Are you trying to chroma key a green screen?
Also, details help. Exactly what model Mac are you using? What version of OS X? What are your sequence settings? What is the source of the video clip? Clip properties? Any other effects you are using on the same clip(s)?
