Batch Tune-up

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Album which is now unsupported. It has a batch tune-up feature where it attempts to correct each image individually, based on what is wrong with it. It works well most of the time although it is not perfect. I'm moving to Lightroom and am looking for the same functionality. It appears Lightroom will sync a batch of images by applying the same corrections to all images. This is not the same as making corrections automatically based on what each image needs. Is there a way to do this with Lightroom? Maybe a plugin?  How about a separate tool?  Photoshop Album won't install on my new Win 7 machine.
Thanks

Have you tried selecting your images in the grid view and hitting "auto tone". I don't like it ver much, but lots of people use that as starting point.

    hi Thomas!
    I have norton 2005 and turned it off when I downloaded itunes and I get the same result. quicktime will open for me however.
    NIS 2005 is the usual suspect with "symptomless launch suppression".

  • Batch file to html report generator:

    Here is what I want to do:
    I want to make an interactive html report based on an HTML site I made.  I want to take the y (meaning yes) inputs for the strings( anitivirus, malwarebytes, ccleaner, and Microsoftconfig which are from the batch) and make them indicate something has
    been done on the HTML that I created.  Essentially, I see the yes inputs putting check marks (or something) in the sections of my HTML document that are related to the programs I ran in the batch.  The sections in the HTML page are called Virus Scan,
    Adware Scan, Registry Scan, and Start up scan and they are paired to the variables antivirus, malwarebytes, ccleaner, and microsoftconfig.  
    I hope this makes sense.
    Thanks for any help

    This is the way I was looking at it.  Essentially a html file is a text file.  I have already written the html file I want to have displayed.  I just want the batch to make a slight change to the text in part of it.  If I could
    do that I would be happy.  Is there any way to do that with the batch?
    Editing files never has been and is still not something that batch files do easily.  I ti si not the intention of batch to do this.
    If you are trying to learn something, try learn-ing something that is not obsolete.  Batch is not worth the time when we have PowerShell,  If you ant to alter an HTML dynamically then use an HTA.  It is easy and well supported.

  • How to Convert a Large Batch of m4a to mp3

    The other day, I wanted to burn a CD with MP3 files, using iTunes, so that I could listen to music on my MP3 player in my car, but when I tried to burn a particular playlist, about 50% of the files would not burn because they were in the M4A format. (i.e. files I purchased and downloaded from the iTunes store).
    I needed to convert these files in a batch, because I have about 64GB of music, (having ripped my previous CD collection onto my hard drive) and I have better things to do, than converting each one individually, like driving around in my car, listening to music.
    Here’s the basic method that I finally devised (see below for more detailed instructions): 
    Display the “Song” view in iTunes and sort by Kind (i.e. file type)
    Select all the AAC Audio files (m4a)
    Right Click and select “Create MP3 Version”
    Delete the AAC Audio files (m4a) & empty the trash (m4a files will be deleted from your hard drive)
    The AAC Audio files will now show up as being available to download from iTunes (a cloud icon with a down arrow), but you can hide these files by selecting “View” à “Hide Music in the Cloud”.
    Now you can burn a CD without being concerned about the file format.
    There are a few things that you have to check/set in order to make this method work:
    First, you need to set the view, so you can see the cloud status and the song file type:
    Open iTunes and select “Songs”
    From the top menu, select “View” à  “Show View Options” or Cmd + J
    In the View window, ensure “iCloud Download” is selected in the “Music” section and that “Kind” is selected in the “File” section.  (you may have to click on the down arrow to expand these areas in the View window.)
    Select “Sort by: Kind” at the top of the View window or click the “Kind” column heading in the Song List.
    Second, you will have to set the conversion type to MP3:
    Open iTunes Preferences (cmd + , )
    Under “General Preferences” under “When a CD is inserted:” click the “Import Settings” button.
    Under “Import Using”, select “MP3 Encoder”
    Additional Notes:
    Removing the iCloud Songs (downloadable) in iTunes:
    You can also select all the “iCloud” files/tunes and delete them.  You will get an error message:
    “Are you sure you want to hide these items in iCloud?  These items will be hidden from your iTunes in the Cloud purchases.”
    If, at some later date, you want your AAC/M4A files back, you can re-display them so they can be downloaded.
    Retrieving the Hidden iCloud Songs:
    Open iTunes Store
    Click on your iTunes account and select “account”
    Logon to your account
    Under the “iTunes in the Cloud” section, IF you have hidden purchases, you will see “Hidden Purchases”, select “Manage”
    Click the “Unhide” button or select “Unhide All” at the bottom
    Log out of your account and return to your library and the Songs List.  You can now sort your list by the clicking on the “Cloud” heading icon to see all of your files that can be re-downloaded.
    Click on the Cloud Download icon and the AAC Audio File (.m4a) file will be copied to your hard drive.

    1 - select the photos in iPhoto and click "e-mail"
    Or 2 - select the photos and export them to a folder (file menu Export) and right click (control click) on the folder and select compress [folder name] and then attach that folder to an e-mail

  • Batch editing ratings problems (Beatunes related)

    Is there a windows script that would enable to batch edit ratings in both the iTunes library, and within each mp3?
    Secondly, is there a way to enable half star ratings in the latest 64bit version of iTunes (running on 64bit Windows 8.1 Enterprise)?
    I've never used half star ratings on my iTunes library, and upon reading, am not certain if this is possible anymore.
    For the last few months, I've been using Beatunes to organize my large sized iTunes library, but seem to have hit some glitches related to ratings.
    In short, when I access my Itunes library via Beatunes, about 5000 songs appear to have "1/2" in the rating field.
    Itunes library seems to see these songs as having no rating.
    Beatunes does not allow ratings to be edited, and since the 1/2 is not seen in iTunes, I would select all those songs and use an empty tag (such as "Show") and designate the value as "Half". In iTunes, I would then select the "Show" column, and highlight all the songs with "Half" in the "Show" column, right click, and change the rating value for all songs. For testing purposes, I changed all songs to have 2 stars. When I sync the Beatunes database to the iTunes database, eventually the Beatuens ratings change to 2 stars (sometimes, it takes a few syncs).
    I would then go back to iTunes, right click on all selected songs, and change rating value to "None". Most ratings change to empty values, while some decide to take on hollow star values, which is really really annoying.
    I then used Steve MacGuire's ClearTrackAutoRating script on those selected tracks:
    http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/scripts.asp
    When I sync the Beatunes database with the iTunes database, the songs I had rated 2 stars go back to "1/2" rating, and not an empty field.
    I can't figure out what is triggering this.
    I've started a thread in Beatunes forum (http://help.beatunes.com/discussions/problems/40759-half-star-ratings-problems), but figured I would start one here to ask for advice, or see if there are any other scripts I should consider trying. At this time, I have not heard back from the developer, as I just posted it a few hours ago.
    One of the things I just tried doing was enabling iTunes to use half star ratings (so i could see the 1/2 rated songs would then show), but I have not been able to figure out how to do this. The most common way of altering iTunesPrefs.xml did not do anything for me:
    http://blog.beatunes.com/2011/08/showing-half-star-ratings-in-itunes.html
    http://www.instructables.com/id/How-To-Enable-Half-Stars-In-Itunes/
    Hence why I was wondering if this hack still works on 64bit version of iTunes (running on 64bit Windows 8.1 Enterprise).
    I also came across this:
    http://www.nextofwindows.com/interesting-tip-how-to-enable-half-star-rating-in-i tunes-in-windows/
    They suggest adding:<key>storefront</key> <string>143441-1,12</string> at the end of iTunesPrefs.xml
    This is confusing, because my prefs already contain the following at the end:
    <key>storefront</key> <string>143455-6,17</string>
    Am I supposed to keep my existent, and just add after, or do I replace what is there?
    Any help/advice would be very much appreciated.

    Hi there...
    I've had a quick check and the iTunesPrefs.xml hack works for me to enable half-ratings. Tested on iTunes 11.1.5 running on Windows 7 32-bit, but no reason to expect platform differences. This build displays ½ rather than a half-star. Once enabled you can set half-ratings via the iTunes interface. I haven't set back yet but presumably they will disappear if I do.
    The album and track ratin properties take a value from 0% to 100%. If 0% iTunes will offer a track-auto rating based on any manual album rating and an album auto-rating based upon manual track ratings. My scripts set a manual rating of 1% which iTunes treats as less than ½ and so displays as no rating, but it suppresses any auto-rating. Presumably Beatunes is treating anything from 1%-10% as ½ star, 11%-20% as 1 star, and so on. For iTunes from 0%-9% is no stars, 10%-19% is ½ star, 20%-29% is 1 star, etc., with bigger ranges when half-ratings are not enabled.
    My scripts page already has ResetAlbumAutoRating and ResetTrackAutoRating scripts if you need to remove those 1% values, or you can simply set a new rating and then remove it.
    What additional batch rating task do you have in mind?

  • Weblogic Bridge Batch Size setting ?

    What is the per-requisite to set JMS bridge batch size in weblogic 10.3.3
    Customer setting in production:
    QoS --> Exactly once
    Asynchronous Mode Enabled --> True
    Batch Size --> 1
    From weblogic console
    "A messaging bridge instance provides transaction semantics when the QOS is Exactly-once. This envelops a received message and sends it within a user transaction (XA/JTA)."
    From documentation
    Changing the Batch Size
    When the Asynchronous Mode Enabled attribute is set to false and the quality of service is Exactly-once, the Batch Size attribute can be used to reduce the number of transaction commits by increasing the number of messages per transaction (batch). The best batch size for a bridge instance depends on the combination of JMS providers used, the hardware, operating system, and other factors in the application environment. See “Configure transaction properties” in Administration Console Online Help.
    Can batch size be set when Asynchronous Mode Enabled --> True ? If yes, what can be the optimal batch size in a production environment ?
    Right now application works fines for non-batch orders from CRM. When customers submit batch of 500 orders during specific hours of the day, lot of messages get queued up affecting the order completion rate.
    Thanks,

    BatchSize does not take effect in async mode.
    What is the provider of your source destination? If it is not WLS JMS destination, your bridge may actually work in sync mode although you have configured it to work in async mode. In order to work in async mode for exactly-once QOS, a WLS proprietary feature is needed. We should see a log message in your server log file when the switch to the sync mode happens.
    If your bridge is indeed work in sync mode, you need to tune your batch size and batch interval to find the best performance for your application load condition. BatchInterval helps you send a batch before the batch is filled with the number of messages defined by batch size.
    Hope this helps.

    Parallelism is always good as long as you have enough processes and cpu resources. The settings for certain initialization parameters can affect the performance of Data Pump Export and Import. In particular, you can try using the following settings to improve performance, although the effect may not be the same on all platforms.
    DISK_ASYNCH_IO=TRUE
    DB_BLOCK_CHECKING=FALSE
    DB_BLOCK_CHECKSUM=FALSE
    Additionally, the following initialization parameters must have values set high enough to allow for maximum parallelism:
    PROCESSES
    SESSIONS
    PARALLEL_MAX_SERVERS
    FOR PARALLELISM ORACLE SAYS
    Set the degree of parallelism to two times the number of CPUs, then tune from there. For Data Pump Export, the PARALLEL parameter value should be less than or equal to the number of dump files. For Data Pump Import, the PARALLEL parameter value should not be much larger than the number of files in the dump file set. A PARALLEL greater than one is only available in Enterprise Edition

  • Batch Job Performance Issue in BW

    Hi All
    I would like to if there are any performance tuning methods for batch jobs in BW. Few jobs are taking much longer time and i need to figure out a method to tune them.
    Thanks in advance for your help
    Regards
    JP

    Hi JP,
    Dinesh is right, you need to consider the tuning for specific scenarios. If some of the jobs are taking longtime just access at what point they are taking time by going to the JobLog in source sytem/BW, and try to take up the optimization of the resources used inthe source system. For Eg: It can be even in the Extractor. I had come across such issue with long loading times for few ledgers in FISL. But could encounter that by spitting load with small number of records to BW with an ABAP program incorporated inthe InfoPack with the selections for the Reconcilation key.
    In this way, you need to first identify the delay for the jobs. Then you can plan the things accordingly..
    Hope this will help you..

    Madhu

  • New hard drive but troubles with I tunes after re-install

    I've recently had a new hard drive installed on my ibook G4. Its a 250GB Powerbook Hard Drive Western Digital Upgrade.
    I did not have the disk for leopard as this machine was bought as a refurb, so we installed Tiger OS X from another Ibook G4 we have in the house. I used a firewire from the older ibook g4 to the one with the new hard drive to transfer the data.
    Everything seemed fine, but I noticed that my Itunes library was missing. I searched through applications and found a folder marked Itunes with the missing music.
    I tried to import them into the library all at once and it failed. So then we tried
    to import them in batches like all of A then B etc.
    It seemed to work but then when I closed I tunes and tried to reopen it, nothing.
    It will not re open I get a window that says I tunes quit unexpectantly with the 3 buttons
    try again (doesn't work) report and close.
    Another issue that has just come to light is that when I was looking at a website called Edufire
    (a free educational audio resource) Safari automatically shut itself down.
    Not sure what to do next....any suggestions
    And many thanks for helping with the mysterious ticking noise.

    If you have actual music files in a folder, on the desktop, and then
    have iTunes app open and running (not full screen) you can often
    drag music files into the iTunes app this way and they will be seen
    and copied into a file location chosen by the app itself.
    As to the rest of the situation, the process may have worked fine
    in a mechanical way, as far as it goes. However, you need to get
    a correct OS X disc in order to not only maintain a legal license for
    the use of the software (unless you have a Family Pack multi install)
    and also for basic computer and system maintenance.
    If the original software packet contents for that computer have been
    lost, then you may see if (by calling the 800# in online Apple store)
    you could inquire of the possibility of getting a replacement set; that
    would be an original OS X install-restore set, as-shipped, for a fee.
    In order to perform system maintenance, you boot the computer from
    the correct installer disc to run Disk Utility, and all the tools it offers;
    including the proper formatting and partition, repair disk, etc on there.
    And, if used with the iTunes Store, the computer would have to be
    authorized. Having an unauthorized copy of an OS on what is now
    two computers, may be a problem with using these with an account.
    Have you tried a different browser, such as Firefox 3.x or Camino?
    There may be other issues in the browser question. Several answers.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Can I Change The Equalizer For All 3,000+ tunes in iTunes At Once?

    I just discovered the equalizer option and I am hoping that there is a command to change the tunes all at once. HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!
    Dell   Windows XP  

    I click edit and select all but I end up with a list highlighted in blue. What's the next step? I tried changing one while highlighted but it only changed the one I worked on.
    Thanks for your help.
    The simple answer to your question is YES, you can do
    that.....BUT, be careful!! Changing the EQ and/or
    Volume presets actually updates the headers in your
    music files. So, by clicking Edit/Select-All, you
    could launch a mass change, but you're talking about
    3000+ updates. I would start off with a small batch,
    then go larger as you gain confidence in the process.
    A word to the wise......be careful.
    Good luck and post back if your are successful.

  • Auto Tune - customized feature (preset) request

    The Auto Tune feature usually works quite good and is a real time saving feature. But on some sets of images the effect is too storng (for my taste). If we can have a 'preset' or ability to customize the strenth or effectiveness of the Atuo Tune (i.e. simlar to the FADE SHARPEN in Photoshop after applying the SHARPEN filter), it will be very helpful. This will be very helful especially when we are doing some batch develop with Auto Tune.

  • What is the best way to search in a CLOB, in batch operation ?

    Hi All,
    My application runs batch for searching 'text' into clobs and accordingly inserts into another table-
    code snippet is like this -
    FORALL i IN 1 .. l_snme_sn_temp.COUNT
    INSERT INTO snme_rmanotes_out
    (report_request_id, serial_number, scrubbed_sn, product_id, pk1_value, last_update_date, event_date, event)
    SELECT pi_report_request_id
    , l_snme_sn_temp_orig (i)
    , l_snme_sn_temp (i)
    , '' product_id
    , pk1_value
    , TO_CHAR (last_update_date, 'DD-MON-YYYY') last_update_date
    , TO_CHAR (last_update_date, 'DD-MON-YYYY') event_date
    , 'IN RMA NOTES' event
    FROM c3_rma_notes
    WHERE contains (notes, l_snme_sn_temp (i)) > 0; **
    here - l_snme_sn_temp contains the text that the query searches ( also evident from the where clause, marked **), and is a variable of a TYPE.
    I am populating l_snme_sn_temp in a chunk of 500 +( using bulk collect limit 500)+ from a table having at least 1 million records +(and the upper cap will not be more than 1.5 M)+.
    The procedure that does this, takes 24+ hours to complete.
    If you guys have any better way to do this or any idea to tune to reduce time kindly suggest.
    I'd appreciate you kind response.
    regards,
    Raj Pandit

    Hi Herald,
    Thanks for writing.
    Oracle text index is there on 'notes' column. This table is part of petty big application of a huge company,
    so though I dont have access to it data dictionary tables, I can expect that the indexes are analyzed regularly.
    insert with HIT takes 2 mins
    insert with MISS takes less than 1 sec
    select with HIT takes minimum 2 mins and maximum 3 mins
    select with MISS takes less than a minute.
    It is expected that there would be more MISS then HITs ( HITs are not desirable)
    This source table is huge+(count in billions)+ and most of the clobs would be bigger. +(in most cases entire email conversation is stored in it)+.
    However there are many restriction on access, they have given us provision to see currently running query in a session ..
    when checked I found most of the time spent in executing insert+select only. As the entire query involves insert+select so I don't know which part is taking time.
    As much I know select + insert would be faster. The destination table+(having just one index)+ is merely used for this operation+(and have no other use in the application)+ only so there is no way insertion would be taking time. Also this procedure is just for insertion+(into that dest. table)+ no other operation is done
    Storage optimization is beyond my domain of discussion as we are just developers and organization is huge. There is no way DBA would listen to us unless there is an acute urgency hampering business operations. However in dev environment I analyzed the index but it didn't help.

  • Storing I-tunes Video/TV Shows on an External HD

    My internal HD is filling up with downloaded movies and TV shows from i-tunes. How do I move selected files to an external HD (without moving whole library), freeing up internal HD space? How do I move these selected files on this external HD back to internal HD if I want to watch these files (TV shows/movies) on the road without bringing the external HD along? Thanks!

    Probably the easiest way is to drag the files from the iTunes window to the external drive.  Make sure they have copied.  Delete them from iTunes.  Hold down the option key and drag the copied files back to iTunes.  This will add them back but mapped to their new location and the option/alt key will stop the files from being copied to your Media folder on the internal drive.
    In future if you are adding a batch of files in one go you can set preferences temporarily to store media on the external drive, then change back again.  See also:  iTunes 12 for Mac: Change where your iTunes files are stored - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19507

  • Quality Inspection for the 1st time Receive of Batch

    Hi all.
    My requirement is just to do the quality inspection when the Batch(MCHA-CHARG) is received in the first time in MIGO.
    No quality inspection is required for next & consequtive goods receive for the same batch.
    for the 1st time receive, the stock will go to quality inspection stock for any batch of a material. From the next time , the stock will go directly to unrestricted stock without quality inspection. is it possible? plz advice.
    Thanks
    pabi

    Hi Pabi,
    I am not sure if this will help you, but here are the three options that you might want to consider:
    - Source inspection. The idea here is that an IL is created for a purchase order prior to GR. All subsequent receipts for this PO can be configured to skip inspection.
    - Control if insp. lot in material master (insp. set-up). In this case, the system will not create new insp. lot, if there's already one open for the same batch - it will merely add the qty of the new GR to the same open insp. lot.
    - With dynamic modification you can let the following receipts of the same material from the same vendor to go without QI, but you can't fine-tune it by batch.
    I know this is not the same what you want, but I can't recall at the moment a function that will satisfy your requirement exactly.
