Archive to Videotape

Hi all!
I admit... i was a avid editor... said WAS!
I´m using Final Cut since version 4.5.1 and today, only today i found something that i would need from Avid... the archive to videotape method.
I found this link:
http://www.ridiculopathy.com/projects/flunky/fcp.php
I´ll try but i would like to know if there another way of doing it in FCP studio 2? Is there?
I have more then 5 hours from different tapes in 2´videoclip i would like to keep the original clips with a 100 frames handles (i´ve captured clips with 20´each)
Any tip?
Oh... forgot to say i´m working with DVCpro HD 720p/50... so you can imagine the size...
Thank you!

Hi Joey!
Thank you for your post!
Do you know what is archive to videotape from avid?
Have you seen the link?
Old Avid editors used to do a archive to videotape and restore from videotape, when the work was finished avid created a "archive sequence" and "edit it to tape" (if you prefer FCP language) at a specific timecode. Avid then splits the clips in it´s own criteria and digital cut it to tape (with handles if you need) then you could delete the original files and restore your sequence from a tape and not from the original tapes.
That is my problem i have a 2´sequence, ok, it´s small... but i used a lot of frames from 20´clips from 5 tapes... it´s a way of store your edit in tape, like a backup!

FCP archive to LTO tape Library

We currently have a 70TB Xsan and about 25000 hours of content on other tapes (1", Digibeta, Betacam, etc) that we need to archive off to a more stable and space saving format. We don't want to backup the data as much as archive it to get it off the Xsan.
Keeping the content on spinning disk is not feasible due to cost and size.
We've been looking at tape libraries from StorageTek(SL8500), Quantum(Scalar i2000) and SpectraLogic(T950) and wonder if anyone has had any experience attaching one of these to an Xsan.
The other half of the question is what software to use to actually do the archive. We're of course waiting to see what Final Cut Server brings and know that we will need some sort of data life cycle management software.
Any suggestions as to what works and we we should be considering?

matt,
I'm a bit confused. This material is already on videotape, so why do you want to archive it to another computer tape format? The videotape is your best bet for long term archiving. You mention "stable and space saving"... frankly, those videotape formats are probably as stable and compact as anything else you may transfer them to. The problem with the other computer based tape back ups is that they will archive a digital format only, so you're going to have to digitze all of your library first, then archive. This is a tremendous amount of time and effort. (25,000 hours will take you over a year to digitize everything using a single stream) You've already got it on tape, so why go through the trouble of an interim step just to put it on a different tape format. We're still accessing and playing beta and digibeta format tapes from 15 years ago. That format has proven to work for at least that time period.
I don't think that final cut server is going to help you in this situation.
All of the three tape libraries that you mention are viable back up solutions, but I don't think they're the right choice for your situation.

Simplest way to archive tape for later editing?

Hi, I am new to this video editing world..
Can anyone tell me the simplest way to archive the contents of my videotapes so that they can be later loaded into iDVD (or iMovie?) and edited? Do I simply create a project of the entire tape and then burn the files to a DVD for each project?
Is this even possible? Do I understand correctly that a DVD made of the tape is not the format I am looking for in order to edit in the future?
Thanks, Rick

Two things that you should do...
1) Keep your original DV tapes. Keep logs of those tapes, too, so you can find the footage again.
2) Export ALL finished projects to DV tape.
For smaller projects, you can archive the original DV media files to DVD, but you can only fit about ten minutes of video onto a single-layer DVD. For those of us whose projects are only about five minutes long, that's fine for an archive. You can't play that DVD, but the video files are full DV resolution.
I don't actually use iMovie (but this is the iDVD forum, right?)...I use Avid Xpress Pro, so my media management is simplified a little. With that program, I can actually retain a copy of my video bin logs, which includes the tape ID and timecode data for all the clips I use in the project. That way if I want to re-create the project I can reload the bin, select the clips that I want, and tell the program to batch-capture. It prompts me for the tapes, I put the tapes in, and it recaptures the footage. I don't know if you can do something similar with iMovie or not.

Archiving video to DVD

Hello,
What is the best way to archive video footage to DVD which I could potentially re-use in FCE at a later date?
Background:
Because my video projects are usually small,
I usually archive the FCE project file,
the graphics, text, audio and music assets
to a DVD data disc. The video assets (miniDV footage)
are left on the original tape as part of the archive set.
However, I have many projects where there is only 10 to 15 minutes of useable videotape, so I'm thinking it would be efficient to archive all the project assets (including only the useable video footage) to one DVD data disc.
My concern is that if I save the video footage used in the project as a datafile, I will lose some of the quality (due to compression/decompression) if I ever use the footage at a later date.
How should I save the video footage to minimize/eliminate this loss of quality?
1. Export as Quicktime movie?
2. DV Stream?
3. DV/DVC Pro?
4. Uncompressed video?
5. Others???
Other ideas / thoughts are welcome ...
Thanks,
David

Hi David.
I have been thinking along similar lines but have not yet got round to doing it.
If you just drag and drop your Capture files onto the DVD there should be no loss of quality because there is no compression on data DVDs.
It's only if you exported your MOVIE to a DVD that compression would be applied.
A normal DVD should hold enough DV files for up to 20 minutes of video - of course it all depends on the size of the project file, though they are usually comparatively small.
It will be interesting to hear from folks who have actually done it.

Subtitling (question about archived material)

OK, I've looked through the archived questions about how to subtitle...and I just want to make sure I do this right. If I do subtitles in DVDSP, do I write them up in a text file first and then import them, or just type them in manually?
If I do subtitles in FCP I just use something like Title3D and type them in manually...creating a whole buncha overlay (title) clips, right?
Forgive the redundency, I know how subtitles are supposed to look, just trying to find the best (and least time consuming) way to produce them.
FYI...the subtitles will be of a person from Spain speaking English (it's kinda hard to understand him since he talks fast and has a heavy Spanish accent).
Thanks, all, in advance.
Jonathan

subtitling (question about archived material)< </div>
So you are trying put subtitles on your archived material?
If you use the subtitle track in DVDSP, the text will be switchable by the user. (This is made more complicated by several factors like your desire to make the subtitles permanent or uncontrollable by the user. These are options you can control by programming the DVDSP project. Not difficult but very confusing.)
If you use a text tool in FCP, the titles will be permanently burned into the video image.
If you use some fo the more sophisticated (read: Expensive) subtitling tools for FCP, you can export a caption-compliant file that can be printed to videotape or mastered to DVD. If you own one of these products, you are at the complete mercy of their manual's writer.

Follow-up to archived thread "Another Error (I think) In the 12.1 New Features Guide"

I hoped to be able to add a reply to the most recent reply on March 8 in the "Another Error (I think) In the 12.1 New Features Guide" thread (https://community.oracle.com/thread/3526588), but since that thread has been archived, I am doing what was suggested elsewhere: create a new thread referencing the old one. My reply is:
Thank you for your explanation about preferring PDF over HTML. That is perfectly fine and understandable. Also, we very much appreciate your documentation feedback in this forum, and encourage you to continue to report any issues here.
I apologize for not replying much sooner. I either didn't get or overlooked an original notification about "Recent activity" after your reply; otherwise, I would have replied then.

Thanks for that comment. I have sent a pointer to it to the writer for that book. Note that with the New Features Guide, most of the content is automatically drawn from an internal system that tracks projects and features; so if a change is needed, the writer will notify the owner of that content (typically a developer or a product manager) to investigate and (if necessary) modify the underlying data, after which the changed information will be picked up for a future revision of the book.
Also, while anyone is welcome to enter documentation comments in this forum, another option that may be more convenient for comments on specific sections is the Reader Comment area at the bottom of each HTML page (such as http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16655_01/server.121/e17906/chapter1.htm#NEWFT495 for the page containing Section 1.5.9.8). Any comments entered in a Reader Comment area go to someone in our documentation production group, who forwards them to the appropriate writers.
However, if a comment involves multiple HTML pages or books, or if you want the matter to be in a public forum for visibility and searchability, posting in this forum is a good option.

Issue MM PO Archiving

Hello all,
we had an issue in archiving Purchase Orders.
Frist of all, we have a large number of open purchase orders. Means that the "delivery complete" flag is missing and the "final invoice" flag is missing.
These PO´s cant be deleted.
So these flags have to be set. We created a report which uses ME22N and sets those flags. After this, our issue appeared.
Unfortenally many purchase orders created new messages and send them directly to the vendor. Had a lot of trouble with this.
How can this happen? Why is this flag a indicator for message determination?
How can i prevent this?
I coud set the flags directly on the DB, but our company doesn´t want to make updates direclty on db.
Any ideas?
thanks for help

Hi Christian,
Other idea. If you don't want to change any customizing, you can create your own Outputs routine numbers in VOFM to rule this requirement. In SPRO/ Mat.managament / purchasing / messages / output control / accesses sequence, you can set it and avoid to create the message. See SAP Note 39462 - Expand field catalog in message determination for purchasing to create a new field (for instance, date of PO). You can set a condition to set SY-SUBRC = 4 (ie: output not created) if the difference in days is greater than n days.
I hope this helps you
Regards
Eduardo

How can I disable iMessages from archiving messages and attachments?

I noticed while browsing ~/Library\Messages/ that iMessages has been archiving my messages (Archive folder) and saving attachments (in a separate Attachment folder). Under the settings for iMessages on OS X 10.8.2 Mountain Lion, I don't see any options to disable this. The only thing close to that is already unchecked: Save history when conversations are closed.
Any ideas why iMessages is saving all this information? How do I disable it? My concern is that it's going to keep accumulating data overtime. I don't want to keep having to go back in there and delete those two folders constantly.

Hi,
This somewhat date back to the way iChat's Saved Chats were once Stored.
At iChat 5 (in Snow Leopard) you could choose to see the last chat - (when opening an new chat with a person you had chatted with before) or parts of the Last Chat in terms of the Last so many IMs.
Example Pic of iChat 5's Prefs
Since then the management choices of the Save Chats has changed in both iChat 6 and Messages.
Messages stores Chats two ways if they are iMessages.
You can elect to Save them in Messages > Preferences > Messages.
It also store the chat.db and other databases items which includes the Attachment items
The chat.db is the bit that fill in the "history" if you iMessage the same person even if you are not saving the Chat in a formal sense in the App's Preferences.
This is irrespective if your delete the Conversation from the Messages main window.
How big these Databases get obviously depends on your iMessages usage.
Striker's link seems to be about a similar issue on an iPhone (I presume it transfers to other iOS devices) but I am not sure that it is relevant in this situation.
Edit.
I should have been clear that you cannot change the database behaviour.

How do I manually archive 1 redo log at a time?

The database is configured in archive mode, but automatic archiving is turned off.
For both Oracle 901 and 920 on Windows, when I try to manually archive a single redo log, the database
archives as many logs as it can up to the log just before the current log:
For example:
SQL> select * from v$log order by sequence#;

6 rows selected.

System altered.
SQL> select * from v$log order by sequence#;

6 1 19 512000 1 NO CURRENT 425102 28-MAR-05
See - instead of only 1 log being archive, 4 of them were. Oracle behaves the same way if I use the "sequence" option:
SQL> select * from v$log order by sequence#;
GROUP# THREAD# SEQUENCE# BYTES MEMBERS ARC STATUS FIRST_CHANGE# FIRST_TIM

Is there some default system configuration property telling Oracle to archive as many logs as it can?
Thanks,
DGR

Thanks Yoann (and Syed Jaffar Jaffar Hussain too),
but I don't have a problem finding the group to archive or executing the alter system archive log command.
My problem is that Oracle doesn't work as I expect it.
This comes from the Oracle 9.2 online doc:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/statements_23a.htm#2053642
"Specify SEQUENCE to manually archive the online redo log file group identified by the log sequence number integer in the specified thread."
This implies that Oracle will only archive the log group identified by the log sequence number I specify in the alter system archive log sequence statement. However, Oracle is archiving almost all of the log groups (see my first post for an example).
This appears to be a bug, unless there is some other system parameter that is configured (by default) to allow Oracle to archive as many log groups as possible.
As to the reason why - it is an application requirement. The Oracle db must be in archive mode, automatic archiving must be disabled and the application must control online redo log archiving.

Archiving cds and why do i need id3 tags

here comes another one of those questions looking at which codec to use to store music.....i also have tag questions.....
i'm about to (re-)rip my cd collection and looking at some info re codecs and id3 tags
now.....i believe i understand the benefits of alac (lower file sizes, keeping id3 tags, lossless compression) v wav(no compression)
however (and for some out there) if we just entertain the fact that wav may have some minute benefit for me depending on my questions and answers given.....and yes i know wav and alac will sound the same to the human ear - i accept that as a given of lossless compression ......
points i'd like to outline:
i am looking to rip my cds, firstly and mostly, for an archiving purpose!! purpose numero uno!!
i could well want to re-create cds with these archived records in the future
size of files is of no concern to me at all
i'm using a mac nowadays
i will convert most of these files, where needed, to use with a portable music player (i'm not bothered with having, say a wav file and then also converting and having an alac file, as crazy as that sounds)
this is where i ask for info re the benefits of embedded tags that are found in alac:
are these tags that important?
where do they come into play in ripping and later converting music?
are these uses just bells and whistles that have no benefit to my needs?
if i rip cds to wav (or aiff), say, using itunes, will cd info and track listings be available on the downloading database (eg itunes) to name these wav files?
if i then ensure these song files are kept under the album's folder, have i just done what tags do? surely not. that is all i have needed in the past.
this is where i feel i may be really missing what id tags (can) do
are tags more than just managing song files and where they belong and where they have come from?
is it just a convenience of not personally managing your song files (as per previous paragraph)?
(in the past i had ripped cds to mp3 codec. i think i used "cd rip" or something like that on my pc.
my mp3 files were individually named and sorted and kept under album folders under artist name folders.
apart form the very odd occasion all track and album info i needed was found on a database that was attached to the ripping software.
i never had a problem managing/maintaining these files and folders.)
i welcome some enlightenment on some of my questions above and other info that may be relevant
and yes, i understand that music will sound the same as a wav file or alac file - but humour me re using wav and tell me why i need id3 tags
i guess the crux of it is:
why do i need id3 tags?
does my managing of my song file in the album folder do what tags do?
what problems/shortcomings/headaches may i encounter by not having those tags if i use wav as opposed to alac?
what do i not know about these little buggers?
what codec is best for my purpose of archiving and re creating of cds (for playing in cd players)
thanks in advance for your input and any clarity that i may experience through this

excuse my long windedness (i have spent some time editing this entry)

Crows2012 wrote:
as mentioned earlier if i just have songs (wav) in album folders, when i import these albums into itunes, do you know if these will come up under AN album with their file names purely using my filename setup (but with no artwork)?
Yes, iTunes will read the filename, such as "Track 1" or something else and display it. But nothing else. No Album or Artist.
so the tracks will remain grouped as an album based on their initial folder and the albums and tracks as per file name?
Crows2012 wrote:
also, does aiff have limitations (apart from the full size of the file)?
I'm not sure I understand what you mean. For all practical purposes AIFF and WAV are exactly the same thing. They're just file containers.
i thought that i had read somewhere that aiff tags could run into some issues with its tags - ie may not always be transferred 100% accurately with certain players (or hardware maybe)
Crows2012 wrote:
and how do these codecs work re-creating an album for the purposes of playing in a cd player? - this is a crucial question for the purpose of my archiving/backup of CDs THEMSELVES
That's actually going to depend on what burning software you use. Once you rip the tracks to whatever file container you choose (WAV/AIFF/ALAC) you'll never really exactly re-create the album. But for archiving purposes all three file containers will do what you want, which is to create a lossless archive. AIFF has the advantage of supporting embedded ID3, which ALAC has the additional advantage of the files also being about half the size of AIFF/WAV files.
i was thinking that maybe wav was able to recreate an album (in effect duplicate one) if my cd was lost or damaged in the future. i was thinking this IF when ripping to wav everything is unchanged (unless there is other data on the original cd). and maybe only possible with wav. the purpose for this would be to play recreated cds on my cd player
any idea on this one?
(i havent looked too thoroughly on this angle but i'll keep googling on this one)
much appreciate all info thus far

Time Machine no longer backs up after archive & install

I have just had something mysterious happen to my Macbook - it spontaneously shut down, then wouldn't restart past a gray screen with Apple logo. After trying every troubleshooting page I could find, I ended up doing an archive and (re)install of Leopard on my hard drive. (btw, I ran the Disk Utility hard drive diagnostic, and it said the HD is fine, though I'm skeptical because it's making new noises I've never heard before.)
I finished that install, restarted, everything seemed fine, and I re-connected the external hard drive that had been used for my Time Machine backups before. Now, every time it attempts to back up, it's stuck on "preparing" for 30 minutes, then starts copying SLOWLY and the progress bar says "6 KB of 10 GB." Well, I have a lot more than 10 GB to back up. Then the process halts and I get an error message: "Unable to complete backup. An error occurred while copying files to the backup volume." And I can't get any more specific information about the error - can't find a log file or anything.
I know that there's a troubleshooting article about Time Machine issues with only backing up 10 GB, but mine doesn't even get that far, and besides, this is not my first Time Machine backup - I have no other external drive big enough to transfer my older data to while I reformat this drive as the support article suggests.
I was thinking that perhaps a system setting got messed up somehow and that maybe I should just forget this archive & install thing I did and instead do a fresh erase & install on my Macbook hard drive and then restore from Time Machine's old backup (a day or so before my Macbook started acting weird). But 1. would that make a difference? And 2. if Leopard gives me an error while backing up in Time Machine, what if I do the erase & install and I get an error trying to restore from Time Machine? That would be a nightmare.
My Macbook has always been so reliable - I'm very confused about what's going on! Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm; the external drive had no errors, according to Disk Utility.
Here are the time machine logs from Console:

In Thunderbird while trying to move conversation results to an archive folder; if some of the results are already in the folder it will not move any.

Hi. I often use the conversation search option when archiving my emails from inbox. I find this a very useful method of finding trails where I and multiple people have responded to each other. However If I have already moved one or more of these emails into the archive folder and select all to move, Thunderbird will not move any. I then need to individually select those that need to be moved.
Although not a major issue I use this regularly and often come across the problem. a recent fix which allows location tab to remain on in search helps but does not resolve this issue. A slightly annoying problem and I was wondering if any one else has this issue. Also is anyone looking into a solution?

FCPx answer: At least the answer that worked for me...
I had the same problem, as I believe many others had.
In my case the problem was with one of OSX Mavericks' new features: APP NAP.
It looks like this is ON by DEFAULT for ALL Applications and that FCPx, or Compressor for that matter, will not work if this is enabled on them.
I just disabled App Napp on FCPx and now it works, again, like a charm.
This is how you disable App Nap: http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57612009-263/how-to-disable-app-nap-in-os-x -mavericks/

SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.8.0 - Production on Mon Apr 9 01:12:15 2012As explained by others, from oracle database there is no record if they are deleted from OS.

What are the precautions to be taken while archiving the POs' and Material

Hi All,
I want to archive the Purchase orders and Material documents. Is there any standard rule to follow this procedure. What are the further consequences for the consecutive documents. And how do you check the open POs' of all.
I have archived PRs' and Invoices, but these are not interlinked.
Could you please help me in this, so that I will be very much thankful to you.
Regards,
Ram
