Automate composing question

Hello everyone,
Here is the scenario:
OUTPUT
========
We will be asked to produce approximately 150 MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format files per day which will be uploaded to the Internet (that is, 320x240 @ 30fps). Each file will play for approximately 10 seconds. This is somewhat the standard of uploading to UTUBE for example.
The video composition for each file will be as follows:
Say 180px X 125px section of each frame will have a action clip continually playing (no sound). The remaining area of the each frame will have 2 people commenting on the action sequence.
Question??
=========
Is there a way that we can automatically create a composition and render the output in 320x240 @ 30fps which:
1 - Imports, creates and adds them to a new composition, renders, outputs and saves the file in a MPEG4 format 320x240 @ 30fps programmatically or by some scripting which I haven't seen yet. As you can see we are bypassing the normal (manual) workflow of After Effects.
Your help and talent would be greatly appreciated.

Okay, re-reading this, are you saying you want to swap in an inset movie in each composition? I didn't quite understand that on the first read.

OSX is automatically composing diacritics when I don't want it to!

So recently whenever I type the letter "o" or "l" followed by a forward slash "/", OSX automatically composes a diacritic mark combining the two.
This happens in most applications, and I'm just using the default system font (Helvetica).
My keyboard is set to standard US (Roman), but I've tried US Extended and British to no avail. I've tried going into the Font menu's Diacritics section, but it only disables this behavior in the current window of the current application, not across the board. I've also tried booting into Safe Mode and emptying the trash, and this hasn't fixed it.
I'm at my wit's end about this. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Certain old OS 9 fonts cause this problem in OS X. Best get rid of them. You will probably see duplicates (dot next to the name) in FontBook and the OS 9 ones probably have dates from the 1990's.

F.13 automatic clearing question and F-03 generate document question

Hi Experts,
I have two questions below.
1. What's difference between F.13 and F-03?
Due to when I use F.13 to automatic clearing GL account, we found out that the system generates docuemnt has content.
(use Fb03, check the document number and found out the Dr and Cr account)
But when I use F-03 to manual clearing GL account, but we found out the system generate document has not any content.
(Use FB03 to check the document number, but I cannot found out the Dr and Cr account)
2.I intend to use F.13 to automatice clearing one GL account. My question is that whether the system could use FIFO to automatice clear document under matching condition.

Web Page Composer Questions

Hey again
Im new to web page composer so here are some questions that i cant seem to find a proper answer to:
1- Im using a Framework witch have two zones:
                 Header Component - Normal Iview
                 Content Area - witch changes depending on top level navigation node
                                      This area is mainly build with pages that have detail navigation and a iview to a WPC Page.
              My problem is: when i preview the iview's im using in content area i can see the WPC im supposed to see , but when i log in as a user that is supossed to have this framework and content as the only available , this iviews to the WPC content are not really showing. the tray is there but no content inside it.
              What could be the problem?
2- Im used to have my Custom CSS / JavaScript in components but with wpc that wont be the case anymore as we want people to change content if they want too. is there a way to load CSS's without a "invisible css provider component" ?
Thanks

Hi Vijayalakshmi,
An entry point provider makes one or more folders available as links that you can access from a central point.
Please refer to this.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/f6/da3340284e7a56e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
In this context as soon as you create an entry point, you can upload site specific/ global content and images or documents into these folders
Let me know if you still have any questions on it.
Cheers,

CTXSRV and automatic indexing question.

We are running portal 3.0 production on Solaris and have documents uploaded on a regular basis.
We are seeing that new documents are being picked up by CTXSRV for text indexing, But the ATTRIBUTES associated with the documents don't seem to be indexed........
To make the ATTRIBUTES searchable, we have to drop and recreate the intermedia indexes.
Is this how this works? Is there another way to make the ATTRIBUTES get "picked up".
Will CTX_SCHEDULE help here?
Any thoughts / help appreciated.

I am new to this field and I had a similar problem. I wanted to start the ctxsrv process to be able to make the inserted data available immediately for viewing. My question is what exactly does this command do? How long does it normally take to execute? Is there a way to test if the command has successfully completed?

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by alan barker ([email protected]):
We have pdf's stored in the Sun os that are added to on a regular basis, the names of which appear immediately in the database. In order to apply the 'changes' to the intermedia indexes, the indexes can be rebuilt or we choose to use the ctxsrv process which will automatically apply the changes.
os prompt> ctxsys -user ctxsys/ctxsys -personality m -log ctx.log
With the latter, fragmentation will occur if performing deletes on this data. We only insert.
I hope this helps!<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Automatic login questions

i tried to find answers to this, but couldnt find the exact problem in other threads.
i have 2 users on my iMac. we never shut down, so i dont really care if there is automatic login, but i would rather have it off and start up at the login screen. but is there a way that my wife does not have to enter her password to get into her profile? she just want to click on her icon and be on her profile instead of having to enter a password. it just gets laborious.

Hi dutchgenius,
Now that you have Allan's answer about the situation you don't really care of (as you never shut down),
here's an answer for your question,
that is,
having to enter a password when logging in from one User Account to the other:
- Unfortunately, the only way is to set her account with no password
(blank/mouseclick field + blank/mouseclick confirmation field)
from the start,
(this way there is not even a login window step)
although I guess it is also possible to change her password to "blank/mouseclick" in the Accounts preferences
(not sure in that case there is not still a login window but no more password needed).
I wouldn't do that even for a standard account, though, oh well,
but,
if she has admin powers then no, definitely don't do it.

Creating automatic failure questions in Captivate 5

Is there a way to create questions that when a user answers incorrectly they automatically fail and end the quiz? I’m using Captivate 5 and have been creating assessments through the question pool manager.
Thanks!

Hello,
The easiest way would be to give those questions a high score, and set the Pass score in such a way that they cannot Pass if they failed one of those questions.
But perhaps you want to throw them out after such an incorrect answer, and not allow them to continue? In that case you could use the Failure action to navigate to the score slide immediately?

Automatic payment question (F110)

Hi all,
I am trying to see where can I set, if it is settable, that when making an automatic payment the document that closes the vendors open item and is an open item on the outgoing bank sub-account to have the contents of its reference field the same as the document that is being closed/payed. I know that in case of more payments it might me a problem since the system doesn0t know which one to take, but in case of single payment, any ideas if it is possible?
Thanks
Dusko

The clearing on the bank subaccount is not based on invoice number but on payment document number (VBLNR). This document number should be copied into the payment file and should be copied by the bank into the bank statement. With this document number, the clearing is very easy. Bank statement may vary from country to country; you should say for which country you need a solution.

Automatic start question

How do I disable the automatic start of iPhoto every time I connect a camera? My camcorder is also a camera but I don't want iPhoto to open. Thanks!

I also want to disable auto-start for cameras in iPhoto too, but I cannot find an option in the Preference Menu (iPhoto) or any other menu (iPhoto). Could someone point me in the right direction ???

HT4864 Does anyone know how to setup iCloud to automatically compose an email when a "mailto" link is clicked? Is this even possible on a Windows 8.1 PC? It seems near impossible to find a yes or no answer to.

Any answers with explanations would be greatly appreciated at this time.

On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

CS6 Actions / Automate batch question

I do not understand the following, I open a pdf using Photoshop. I get the Imprt PDF box. I select 150 images, set the size and rez and hit OK. This opens each page in its own window. Then I go to the actions panel and record a resize so I can save the batch. After the recording I go to Automate / batch select the set of actions create a destination folder and select source open files, file naming.
Now the first window which should be my page 1 is selected but when the files automate it creates the new images with my page 1 being page 150 which is the LAST and numbering them backwards.
I also tried starting the serial number with 150 but it saved the files starting from 150.
Am I missing something here like forgetting a step?
anyone?

This to me would make no sense at all, do you mean to tell me that in the history of Photoshop users I'm the only one that has to do this task and have this problem. I do not understand why this would be such a no brainer unless ther is an easy script out there somewhere? My problem keeps haunting me as I have a lot of pdfs that need to be converted to images in the correct page orders.
I would use Acrobat to do this but saving from pdf to images resamples way way to low and the pages lose their color.
Any script out there that will do what I need to be done here as this is turning a normal job into a nightmare.
Anyone?

Automatic posting question: differences between bsd and prd

Hi to everyone. Although I searched for everywhere I know (including SAP help) I couldn't find a proper answer for my question "what are the differences between transactions "BSD - inventory posting" and "PRD - Cost (price) differences" ?". it seems as if both of thhese transactions are posting in case of cost differences between goods receipt and invoice receipt (and also there must be a stock movement). I will be very thankful vor a dtailed answer.
thanks in advance.
Mehmet Akif EREK
MM module responsible

Hai,
Both BSD & PRD are the Pre defined Transaction event keys used in a SAP Std system. TO understand the BSD, firstly know the BSX ( diff bet BSX & BSD ).
 Stock posting (BSX)
This transaction is used for all postings to stock accounts. Such postings are effected, for example:
o In inventory management in the case of goods receipts to own stock and goods issues from own stock
o In invoice verification, if price differences occur in connection with incoming invoices for materials valuated at moving average price and there is adequate stock coverage
o In order settlement, if the order is assigned to a material with moving average price and the actual costs at the time of settlement vary from the actual costs at the time of goods receipt
Because this transaction is dependent on the valuation class, it is possible to manage materials with different valuation classes in separate stock accounts.
Caution
Take care to ensure that:
o A stock account is not used for any transaction other than BSX
o Postings are not made to the account manually
o The account is not changed in the productive system before all stock has been booked out of it
Otherwise differences would arise between the total stock value of the material master records and the balance on the stock account.
Account determination of valuated sales order stock and project stock
Note that for valuated sales order stock and project stock (special stock E and Q) and for the transaction/event keys BSX andGBB, you must maintain an account determination to avoid receiving warning messages when entering data (purchase order or transfer posting) for valuated stock.
During data entry, the system attempts to execute a provisional account determination for GBB for valuated stock. The system will only replace the provisional account determination for GBB with the correct account determination for the stock account (BSX), in the background, if you enter the data for valuated stock at a later point in time.
Supplementary entry for stock (BSD)
This account is posted when closing entries are made for a cumulation run. This account is a supplementary account to the stock account; that is, the stock account is added to it to determine the stock value that was calculated via the cumulation. In the process, the various valuation areas (for example, commercial, tax), that are used in the balance sheet are taxed separately.
Now the details of PRD T/E key :
Price differences arise for materials valuated at standard price in the case of all movements and invoices with a value that differs from the standard price. Examples: goods receipts against purchase orders (if the PO price differs from the standard pricedardpreis), goods issues in respect of which an external amount is entered, invoices (if the invoice price differs from the PO price and the standard price).
Price differences can also arise in the case of materials with moving average price if there is not enough stock to cover the invoiced quantity. In the case of goods movements in the negative range, the moving average price is not changed. Instead, any price differences arising are posted to a price difference account.
Depending on the settings for the posting rules for transaction/event key PRD, it is possible to work with or without account modification. If you use account modification, the following modifications are available in the standard system:
o None for goods and invoice receipts against purchase orders
o PRF for goods receipts against production orders and
order settlement
o PRA for goods issues and other movements
o PRU for transfer postings (price differences in the case
of external amounts).

GR/IR automatic Blocking & Unblocking

Hi
I have a couple of questions regarding the GR/IR automatic Blocking and Unblocking,
Question 1
Scenario: Looking for Quantity Variance
Purchase Order:           Qty: 10Kg & Price: $20       [@ unit price $2/ 1kg]
Goods Received:          Qty: 6 Kg
Invoice Received:         Qty: 10Kg & Price: $20
When I post the invoice, this invoice gets blocked automatically because GR is 6Kg & IR is for 10Kg.
How can I unblock the invoice automatically with MRBR?
I have tried the following to unblock the invoice automatically:
(1) I have posted another GR for 4Kg against the same PO and checked the blocked Invoice it is still blocked and couldn't unblock automatically
(2) After posting GR for 4Kg, posted Invoice against the same PO for 4kg, but this invoice is showing as a separate one
i.e.,      Earlier Invoice is $20.00-   (which is our blocked invoice)
           New Invoice        $ 8.00-    (new invoice for 4Kgs)
Still I could not unblock the (blocked) invoice automatically with MRBR.
Please help me with unblocking the invoice automatically.
Question 2
How can we set the tolerance limit for quantity difference between GR & IR as ZERO.
In other words, Qty in GR = Qty in IR else the invoice should be blocked for payment. How do we set this tolerance?
All the thoughts/ replys / suggestions are appreciated by rewarding points!
Thanks!

Automatic TO Creation for QM Usage Decision

Dear Gurus
We all know WM TO to releasing stock from QI to UU or return goods to vendor can be created automatically,
My question is, when the usage decision is split into two, some material going into stock, and some returned to vendor. for return to vendor, SAP will do automatic transfer, but for material go into stock, SAP is not release Q status in WMS to unrestricted (blank), I have set the movement 321 to create TO automatically and post into same bin.
FYI, if the transaction is separated, SAP perform well (transfer Q to unrestricted done automatically and return to vendor also done automatically)
Is there any solution for this problem?
Thanks and Regards
CJ Lee

Hi,
In case of a usage decision for a partial quantity, it is not possible to create the TO for the generated posting change notice automatically. This is only possible when the full quantity is released. The same happens if you release a partial quantity and post the rest using a different stock posting. The reason is, there needs to be a user decision, which part of the quantity has to be posted, this is necessary for example when the quantity is distributed in the warehouse over many storage bins. But even if the full quantity is on one storage bin, there is no automatic TO creation. You can see this also in the online processing LT05), in case of partial quantities you have to enter the selected quantity in the quant list, for a full posting this is not necessary.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sinéad Curran

How can I use multiple cameras in Quartz Composer?

Good morning, all. This is a quartz composer question, but I can't see a quartz-composer specific forum to ask it...
As part of a school project at ACAD we are building a rig to record the output from three video cameras to build a panoramic video. I have played with Quartz Composer to do the melding of videos recorded with this setup into a single image, and it worked very well.
However, to do so live is the intention for this project as well, so we can build the composite video for recording (the timing of three different cameras is a bit awkward) as well as line up the cameras without having to do so separately.
In Quartz Composer, however, the video-in plugin only reads the camera model number, not the unique GUID as seen in the System Profiler, so three identical cameras will not be read properly... you can only choose the model number, not the specific id of the camera.
Is this a bug in Quartz Composer? Is there some top-secret plugin that is hiding somewhere that will allow you to choose the individual camera id's as seen in the system profiler? (Cameras tested have been firewire handycams streamed live, and usb cameras. identical model numbers can't be chosen as individual cameras properly)
Thanks muchly, and please shuffle this question to the proper forum as necessary.

I am working on a project where I need the same functionality. But even though I'm using different webcams, and can clearly select them in the menu, still only one camera works at a time. Even if I run two separate patches, with two different camera inputs, only one of them works.
If you find any solution to this problem, I would really appreciate if you could share it.
