BEST WAY TO CONVERT XDCAM EX FILES TO PRORES

I would like to covert all the files from the SONY EX-3 to ProRes.
What would be the most efficient way. I tried to import the files using my
sony transfer and then using Export (Quick time conversion using Apple pro res). However since
there are many files I was wondering if there is another way to do all files independently from each other to ProRes.
Thanks
Mo

Or, use FCP's *Media Manager* tool to Recompress all the media to your target codec.
Or (in future) capture directly from the camera's baseband output to the target codec using a suitable I/O box such as a Matrox MXO2 box, AJA IO HD or Express box or Kona card, or Blackmagic Design card.

  • Best way to convert 200+ CP4 files to CP6 or CP7 so we can update/edit using CP7.

    My company just upgraded to Captivate 7.01 from Captivate 6.  We still have many CP4 files that need to be updated. Is there a better way to update the CP4(.cp) files than opening and saving as CP6 (.cptx), then opening the CP6 files in CP7 to update?  Is there a batch file converter available that will do it? 
    Since I will be updating the files (background images) and testing them as they are updated, I am not too concerned about converting Action scripts for CP7. I mostly want to save some time (and tedium) converting the files so I can edit them.

    No batch file converter.  You'll just have to do it the old way, upgrading to an intermediate version such as Cp5 or Cp6 and then going from there to Cp7.  It's the penalty for not upgrading sooner.

  • What is the best way of converting a Top Level VI into a 'sub vi' - or function ( without duplicating programming)

    Hi,
    General question here about design architecture, which i keep running into, but haven't found a really good solution.  If i write a 'Top Level VI' to do something, what is the best way of converting it into a subVI - which is call-able from other VIs, while still allowing the top level VI to have synchronised feedback/indicator updates.
    I guess the point is that when something is a top level VI you write gui logic about what happens when someone clicks buttons or whatever - which you don't want in the 'sub vi' version.
    I did at one point try having a hidden boolean button that was an input to the subVI which would let the VI know if it was supposed to be doing the front panel stuff - or simply running as a subVI.  This isn't really ideal though - since it would be better to be able to hive off the grizzly useful stuff from the fluffy - front panel updating stuff - having them together makes the VIs rather untidy.  More annoyingly though, if you have the front panel version of it running - say waiting for you to hit 'go', it breaks all the other VIs that use it as a sub vi - since they can't compile when a sub vi is already running.
    Another possibility that i tried was to basically duplicate the vi so that there was a backend part, and a front end part - and when i click 'go' the backend part is called as a sub vi.  The problem with this is that it really limits the interface that the user gets - since none of the controls on the front panel update with the results untill the sub vi is over.  I guess again i could solve this by passing references to some of the controls to update them in the subvi - but this doesn't really seem like the ideal situation if the subvi is called by something else without the same types of controls etc.
    One final idea i had was to essentially paste all the controls in the VI into a global variable file, and make the sub vi update them, and the front panel VI read from them.  This seems to 'work' - although clearly it is a work around rather than a proper solution - since i spend loads of time worrying about how i update cluster variables in the global - reading and writing.
    Does anyone have any guidance on what they do to solve this problem?
    JP

    You could run a subvis in a Subpanel on your top level.  Lets you see the current data while the subvi is running.

  • What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files?

    What is the best way to keep my personal files stored in iCloud separate from my work-related files? It seems that I'm not allowed to link my iPad mini and my work iMac using two different accounts, so I'm wondering how to make my single personal account work for both, while keeping personal vs work files reasonably separated.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Is it possible for you to upgrade your account to iCloud Drive? That would mean, all Macs upgraded to Yosemite, and all mobile devices to iOS8?
    See:  iCloud Drive FAQ and iCloud: About using iWork for iOS and iCloud
    In iCloud Drive you could create two separate custom folders, one for work documents and one for private documents and organize your documents there.  Don't use the app specific folders (Keynote, Pages, Numbers, ...) , because you can only create one level of folders inside these folders.

  • What is the best way of converting everything in a result set into a string

    hello folks
    What do you think is the best way of converting everything in a resultset into a string???
    At the moment I'm using
    rs.getString(i);
    everywhere (no matter if the underlying datatype is a date or whatever..) it converts automatically evertything expect NULL into a valid string.
    Are there better (simple to use..) ways?

    I don't see a big switch construct. How about trying the following:
    Call this method from your original method by passing the resultset obtained.
    public String[] convert(ResultSet rs) {
         int col = ((ResultSetMetaData) rs.getMetaData()).getColumnCount();
         String[] record = new String[col];
         int i=0;
         while(rs.next()) {
              if(rs.wasNull()) record[i] = new String();
              else record[i] = rs.getString(i);
              i++;
         return record;

  • What's the best way for reading this binary file?

    I've written a program that acquires data from a DAQmx card and writes it on a binary file (attached file and picture). The data that I'm acquiring comes from 8 channels, at 2.5MS/s for, at least, 5 seconds. What's the best way of reading this binary file, knowing that:
    -I'll need it also on graphics (only after acquiring)
    -I also need to see these values and use them later in Matlab.
    I've tried the "Array to Spreadsheet String", but LabView goes out of memory (even if I don't use all of the 8 channels, but only 1).
    LabView 8.6
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    But my real problem, at least now, is how can I divide the information to get not only one graphic but eight?
    I can read the file, but I get this (with only two channels):
    So what I tried was, using a for loop, saving 250 elements in different arrays and then writing it to the .txt file. But it doesn't come right... I used 250 because that's what I got from the graphic: at each 250 points it plots the other channel.
    Am I missing something here? How should I treat the information coming from the binary file, if not the way I'm doing?
    (attached are the .vi files I'm using to save in the .txt format)
    (EDITED. I just saw that I was dividing my graph's data in 4 just before plotting it... so It isn't 250 but 1000 elements for each channel... Still, the problem has not been solved)

  • I am looking for a way to convert Microsoft Office files to my apple and back again

    I am looking for a way to convert Microsoft Office files to my apple and vise vera.
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    you are asking about Microsoft products and using a laptop, not a workstation Mac Pro.
    The Numbers and Pages Apple Communities. or MS Community if you want those.
    Importing and Exporting, but Numbers and Pages will not do a SAVE into other formats by default, and therefore have to keep using Export which is messy.

  • Best way to read from a file

    What would be the best way to read from a file. Which classes do I need to use?
    I have to write a program, which reads data from a comma separated flat file, parse it and after inserting some busineess logic insert into a databse .
    I will have to read the data line by line.
    Any help????

    I would use:
         public void readData()
              try
                   data = new String[this.countRows("comp.txt")][];
                   BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("comp.txt"));
                   for(int x = 0; x < data.length; x++)
                        StringTokenizer temp = new StringTokenizer(br.readLine(), "?");
                        data[x] = new String[temp.countTokens()];
                        for(int y = 0; y < data[x].length; y++)
                             data[x][y] = temp.nextToken();
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
         private int countRows(String f)
              int t = 0;
              try
                   BufferedReader brCountRows = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(f));
                   while(brCountRows.readLine() != null)
                        t++;
              catch(Exception e)
                   System.out.println(e.toString());
                   return t;
              return t;
         }It works deliciously!

  • Is there a way to convert .x32 xtra file to .w32 file?

    Hi All,
    There is a 3d engine (xtra) for director:
    http://irrlicht.director3d.de
    The engine is working fine with director and I can publish exe files with it.
    The problem is that I can't publish it for web because I don't have the engine's xtra .w32 file for it (I have only the .x32 file)
    Is there a way to convert .x32 xtra file to .w32 file?
    Thanks

    Is there a way to convert .x32 xtra file to .w32 file?
    No - you have to have the source to compile to w32 or the equivalent Mac auto-downloadable package. Try contacting the author.

  • What is the best way to include an xml file in JSP?

    I have a jsp page that I need to include an xml file. The xml file
              uses an xsl to render the file. What is the best way to include the
              xml file and still maintain the structure of the style sheet?
              Thanks
              Jennifer
              

              The best way is using the tag lib. If you cannot, but you can use JAXP, you can
              try
              javax.xml.transform.Transformer.transform(Source xmlSource,
              Result outputTarget)
              throws TransformerException
              You construct the transformer with you xsl, use you xml file or DOM to form xmlSource,
              and use JSPWriter "out" to form outputTarget (StreamResult). But if your JSP page
              generates the xml itself, tag lib is the only way.

    I currently use Google's free exchange server and sync my contacts and calendar to Google even though I pretty much do all my emailing from either mac, iphone, or ipad. Since it sounds like it's hard to sync to both google and icloud at the same time, would like to make the switch. Is there a FAQ out there? Can I keep my google email and sync just the contacts w/iCloud or is it an all-or-nothing proposition? If so, is that what others do? Any advice / pointers appreciated. Thanks.
