Automatic renaming of clips after linking....

Working on a Dual System production, where I roughly line up the videofiles (EOS 5D converted to ProRes LT) including guide audio with the multitracked audiofiles (poly). Sync using Plural Eyes, and some manually. After sync is matched, I link the videoclip with the audio to get a new Master clip. This USUALLY do no harm to the original clipnames, but recently a lot of the audioclips got renamed after the videoclip....all by itself! Or not???! It's not consistent, but I cannot recall I've done things in another way when it happens. It's extremely important that the audioclips keeps their original name after linking, because of audio post i Pro Tools afterwards. When I unlink a new MasterClip, select an audio clip and check the Source - the original filename is there. But how can I revert all these renamed files back to it's sourcename? Found some similar cases here on AD, but with no luck yet. Exported a sequence as XML and imported into a new, fresh Project. Same names on all clips a before.... Exported an OMF 2.0, but it created only new audiofiles based on the NOT WANTED clipnames. Anyone??? Thanks.

Hmm, so to recap, you cannot rename clip names after file names correct?
correct
have you checked permissions on that disc? you can read and write to it yes?
yes
and after using pluraleyes the synced sound wavs get renamed to the same name as the video file that your syncing to?
no, it happens either after linking the new (seperate recorded) sound to the video (most of the time), and/or making a cut. This occurs at random; there is a soundfile in the synced sequence that changes its name to the video when I cut it with the blade - first part stays correct, but with second part the soundfile copies its name from the video. Yesterday it was even the other way round. Cleaning up parts in the synced sequence I made cuts and the video after that cut got the same name as the seperate soundfiles.
are you sure that the new sound is actually there? its not just lost the pluraleyesed combination has it and you're seeing the unlinked version? sorry if those sound daft questions but just covering basics.
Yep sound is there, I have a masterdisk, copies everything to the FCP disk
Ive not used pluraleyes, but it sounds to me like either a disc permissions thing or some funny combo of fcp and pluraleyes, have you checked with pluraleyes to make sure of compatability with your vers of FCP?
using both last version but I did not inform Pluraleyes yet if they're familiar with the problem
sorry cant be of more help at the mo, hopefully someone will chime in soon with a solution

Youve been more than kind!!

Automatic Rename of workstation after re-imaging

I am trying to determine why my laptops are not keeping their names or at least renaming themselves as a process of the ZEN Imaging we do with our students laptops. The re-image process and rebooting of the laptop after re-imaging works correctly. The only issue is that the laptop does not keep its name and reverts to the name within the image used. I have pasted in a section of the "imenu" we using in selecting the appropriate image.
fi
sleep 5
img rp $PROXYADDR //$PROXYADDR/images/hsvostro1000.zmg ;
zisedit Computername=$WSNAME ;
echo -e " \033[31mRebooting computer! \033[0m" ; reboot -f ;;
4 ) if [ -n "$(zisview ComputerName)" ]; then
WSNAME=$(zisview ComputerName)
else
echo -e "No Safedata"
while test ! $WSNAME; do
echo -n "Please enter the workstation name:"
read WSNAME;
done
I have even used this line after to replace my "original" zisedit command after reading a post in the forums that it worked on their Dell laptops. But it fails just like the script displayed above.
zisedit ComputerName=$WSNAME$D$SN DNSHostName=$WSNAME$D$SN WindowsWorkgroup=$WSNAME DNSSuffix=usd376.com JustImaged=True ;
Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Yes, I found that. And I now have a good solution in place. Only thing, it'd be nice to be able to specify an Action (or at least an agent refresh) after pressing the Submit button of the CDF.

Colored bars in clip after apply a little motion

I get these colored bars in my clip after applying some motion effects (kern). Rendering does not solve. Any idea?
Here is a screenshot:
http://kttns.org/nkzgy

I had a very similar problem a while back, but I never found a solution. I think it was somehow linked to using an external USB drive (which is definitely a bad idea!).
Are you using an external drive to store your media? If so, what type and how is it formatted?

Powershot SX510 HS automatically stops recording video after 10 - 15 minutes into the recording.

Powershot SX510 HS automatically stops recording video after 10 - 15 minutes on continuous recording. Is there a way to turn this off? I would like to record videos until either I press the stop recording button, or the battery gets low. I have turned off all the power saving setting, at least I think I have.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The camera has some recording limitations as all the Canon models do. Below is how you can extend your recording times to a max of about 1 hour but there is a 4BG limit regardless so once it hits 4GB the recording stops and has to be restarted.
Also the memory card needs to be at least a Class 6 rating or the recording will stop sooner regardless of the clip size.
This is from page 161 of your manual

Batch Rename Raw Files After Import?

Can you batch rename raw files after you import, so that the file name changes in Aperture and on the hard drive? I want to be able to edit images, and then rename only the keepers. This has been asked before here, but I could not find an answer.
Thanks!

File -> Export, Kind: Original
When you import a Raw to iPhoto it automatically creates a jepg preview of the file. Why? Because you cannot do anything with a Raw: you cannot print it, use it a slideshow and so on. However, with this preview you can work with the photo immediately.
You can, however, also process the Raw in iPhoto simply by editing it. The Raw processing engine in iPhoto the same one used in Aperture, but with less fine control. (Think of the differences between Word and TextEdit, iMovie and Final Cut). The output from the processing then replaces the preview. You can choose to save your output as either jpeg or tiff in the iPhoto Preferences.
When you are processing Raw in iPhoto you will see the Raw badge on the bottom of the iPhoto Window
Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
Note: After you have processed a Raw, subsequent edits to the photo are carried out on the processed jpeg (or tiff) not the Raw. If you want to go back to the original then you need to use the Photos -> Reprocess Raw command.
Aperture works in an entirely different way. What are you trying to do, exactly?

Automatic renaming of columns

Hi,
Due to new busines requirements, I have to comment couple of tables in the query object. When I start compiling after commenting out the conditions and tables, it starts throwing errors BAD BIND VARIABLE xxx NOT DEFINED. Report has automatically renamed a lot of columns by itself, for e.g. a column called name has been renamed to name1. There are PL/SQL programs which refer the column name. Now when I attempt to compile the report it starts throwing the error BAD BIND VARIABLE name NOT DEFINED because it has been renamed to name1, automatically by reports. I am baffelled at this as the columns does not have any relationship to the commented out tables. Is there a way to avoid this.
Thanks,
Bharath

The best way to avoid this is to alias the columns in the query. Whenever you make a change to the query, reports reparses the query. If other columns exist with the same name then a numeric suffix will be added. You could also apply the latest patch set (patch 10), as some fixes were made in this area.
Thanks,
Danny

How do I add a video clip after my music?

Its sort of a wierd question but basically to me imovie09 is a bust since i cant really see a real timeline to edit my project. But what im trying to do is after i edited my video and the song i have ends i want to add another clip after the song but without the song playing. Everytime i add a clip it either goes to the top of my project or just adds it to the song. basically what im tryign to ask is, how do i add a clip after a song?

Lurkai wrote:
ohh ok, so what i need to do is detach the audio and it will become that thin green strip at the bottom of the clips is what you are saying?
you don't like tutorials, don't you?
where does the audio come from?
if you ADD audio/music/voice over to a project, there are TWO options.
#1:
you drag it into the (grey) background of your Project - and it becomes a background track with its own 'behaviour': it will try to background the WHOLE Project as much as possible. as long there's audio left, any added video/still will lengthen the audio.
#2:
drag audio ONTO a clip .... it gets connected PLUS it offers the usual options any clip offers; copy/pasting, cutting, fading, effects. here, I added a fade and the last video-clip is audio-less.
safey?

Automatic creation of PR after MRP run

Hi,
can anyone please tell me what all fields are picked up in a Purchase Requisition(PR) in the scenario of automatic creation of PR after MRP run.
If we are using more than 1 PR type in the system how is it determined during the MRP run that the PR will be created for which type.I understand that source list will have to be created and maintained but how is the PR type determined
Thanks in advance

In PR the system checks for the material and vendor. See the steps below.
Step1:Auto PO tick in material master Purchasing view (mandatory)
Step2:Auto PO tick in vendor master Purchasing view
Step3:Maintain Source list for vendor and material (If u r not using source list for auto PO creation, the assign the Source of supply to a PR in ME56)
Step4:Maintain Pur. Inforecord
Step5:ME59n : execute for PR and Vendor In ME59n, you can also select the PR document type. If you want to select different document types, go for multiple entries and enter the doc types.
When u execute, the system will give the appropriate PRs. Select the required and convert to PO.
But through MRP you cannot create PO directly only Planned orders can be created.
Reward if helpful..
Thanks,
Srib

How can i change the settings so that before download the firefox gives a propmt that same file name already exists, instead of automatically renaming duplicate files by adding .1 suffix?

When I download a file, if a file of similar name already exists in the same download folder, the firefox downloads the file and renames it by adding numeric .1 to the file name.
I want the firebox to give me a prompt that similar file already exist, rather than automatically renaming it by adding suffix .1.

How Can I Zoom in Further Into a Clip after a Crop?

I want to further crop a clip so I can focus on one portion of it, but the crop option has its rectangle limit. Is there anyway I can further zoom into my clip after the initial crop?
Thanks,
Kev

indeed, the crop-tool allows a max (min?) of about a quarter of original size..
workaround:
• avoid the iM crop-tool
• use any pic processor (Preview, Pixelmator, PSE..) to crop your wanted area..
• import pre-processed pic into your project..-
ah, and Welcome, klopez89, to the  iMovie boards..

If I rename a clip in PPro, is there a command to change the actual file name like in FCP7?

In FCP7 I could rename a clip in FCP and then use a menu command to change the actual file name to match:
Can I do this in PPro or Prelude?
Thanks!

This option is only available in the Project Manager.

Is there a way to restore a movie clip after you have closed the swf

Can you restore the state of a movie clip after you have closed it?

Could you explain more about what you mean by "assign component parameters" because I dont understand. Is this something I would do before it closed? Maybe I failed to explain clearly. i really need some help on this because i have no idea where to start. I have created an app, but I want a user to be able to reopen the app after close and pick up where they left off, or be able to change one thing and not have to start from the begining. I have searched around and cant find information on what i need so Im starting to wonder if that is possible using as3?

Is there a way to crop a video clip after I rotate it?

I rotated a clip due to faulty attachment of my helmet cam. Is there a way to crop the video clip after rotating it 4 degrees? I would hate to lose this footage, but I cannot use it as it is.

If your export looks like the screenshot in post 6, then please write your Publish+Share settings in a reply to confirm your present situation.
Publish+Share
Computer
and then what?
MPEG
AVCHD
XAVC-S
AVi
Windows Media
QuickTime
Image
Audio
You might only be seeing MPEG, AVCHD, and XAVC-S in the list because the other are hidden from view. You need to use the small scroll bar to the right of the choices to scroll down to the ones beyond XAVC-S.
If you select MPEG and do nothing but accept the first choice of Presets which is NTSC DVD Standard, then you are going to get a 4:3 export. Under those circumstances, you have a 16:9 project setting, then you are going to get the type of result that you are seeing in post 6.
If you are doing that, then look at the MPEG Presets = NTSC DVD Widescreen, do your export, and let us know if all is OK.
Do you have any special receipt requirements for the export? With further information from you, I will help you with the export setting appropriate for your project and maintaining what you are created in the edit area.
Thanks.

How stop the automatic statistics collection job after the maintenance wind

Hi,
we are for a solution to stop the automatic statistics collection job after the maintenance window finished.
we disable all jobs except the automatic statistics collection, because this is the only one we want to run. Then we define specific values for the interval and duration parameters of the maintenance window to customize this task.
But for their systems it is very important that this job/task will immediately stop when the window is closed!!!
So, how could we ensure this behavior.
For Oracle 10g it is easy because the statistic job always exists and it is possible to set its duration and create an addtional event based job which kills all jobs that are running over duration.
In Oracle 11g the statistic job is created by the system during the maintenance window is open.
We are not able to modify parameters of this system job. After the maintenance window closed the job is already running - only with another resource priority - but it is running.
Please help me in this scenario
Thanks&Regards
Prem

?So basically you are saying is if none of the tables are changed then GATHER_STATS_JOB will not run, but i see tables are updated still the job is not running. I did >query dba_scheduler_jobs and the state of the job is true and scheduled. Please see my previous post on the output
Am i missing anything here, do i look for some parameters settings
So basically you are saying is if none of the tables are changed then GATHER_STATS_JOB will not run,GATHER_STATS_JOB will run and if there are any table in which there's a 10 percent change in data, it will gather statistics on that table. If no table data have changes less than 10 percent, it will not gather statistics.

Be abble to automatically remove unused resultLists, after onTheFly reporting, onTheFly DB writing ...

Hello,
If you get memory problems, you had to tune your reports options, result collecting, load / unload modules ....
These tasks are very long, you have to point all memory consumers first ... It pollutes your test sequence only for memory purposes !
When you try to modify the result reccording, you will also have problems for your report generation ...
It should be nice to add a new feature allowing an automatic result list removing, after onTheFly reporting, ontheFly database writing have treted them ...
A kind of "OnTheFly and remove unused results"
When ontheFly reporting, and The OnTheFly database writing are over, the treated resultList should be put in a garbage structure !
Older test results could be removed if memory is needed ...
I know this could be not simple ... but this could help very much, for big sequences creation.
Thanks a lot.

Guys, I think I've found the strange thing.
First, in the recovery shell, when I type "lvm lvscan", it prints:
WARNING: lvmetad is running but disabled. Restart lvmetad before enabling it!
and then it says that all four my logical volumes root,boot,home and var are inactive.
So I tried to set them up manually, with "lvm vgchange -a y", and guess what happened: I was able to boot!
I still haven't managed to understand the real causes of this problem, but basically it seems that I have the same problem explained here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=184340.
The only difference is that there the OP says to have solved the problem with an upgrade to Linux 3.15.7, while it appeared to me with the upgrade to 3.18.3, and as I said it doesn't go away neither with a downgrade nor with another upgrade to version 3.18.4
