Best way to export vector animation as bitmap animation

Hello -
we have some very complex animations that, for performance reasons, we want to have them be bitmaps at runtime. I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on how to do this. I don't think using the cacheAsBitmap feature will help us out at all - these animations are constantly changing frames and therefore the cache won't help us much.
For example, maybe i can write a jsfl script to copy each frame and paste it into a new .fla as a png instead of as vector art, but I haven't explored that option much.
any helpful ideas?
thanks in advance.

changing vector graphics to bitmap graphics won't help performance if enabling the cacheAsBitmap property isn't helpful.
Can you explain that more?
cacheAsBitmap only caches the bitmap after the vectors have drawn, and each time the animation changes frames, new vectors need to be drawn, so the cache is invalidated.
If the animation is originally all bitmaps, no vectors need to be drawn at all - and would therefore be less CPU intensive.

    Wie exportiere ich am am besten einen Schnittlinie aus Photoshop? Ich bekomme von einem Wort immer nur den ersten Buchstaben exportiert, obwohl alles gerastert auf einer Ebene liegt.
    Thank you! Vielen Dank!

    What are you talking about exactly?
    If you need to export vector data Photoshop is not the first choice but if you have Type Layers (without faux styles), Vector Masks or Paths it is possible.

    does not seem to make sense in this context though.

  • Best Way to Export After Effects File and Save Transparency

    Hi all-
    A pretty simple question. I need to export a file from After Effects and keep the alpha channel so I can superimpose it on some video in FCE. What is the best way to export it?
    I recall hearing people mention that the Animation Codec with "Millions of Colors+" is the best way to go about doing it, in which case I'd just have to render it within FCE. Is that correct? If so, are there any other settings I should tweak to get a high quality file that will work with FCE?
    Thanks.

    Hi -
    Animation Millions+ will deliver an extremely high quality file with the alpha channel. You will need to render once in FC.
    Hope this helps.

  • I need advice (for the best way to exporting uncompressed files)

    Using Final Cut Pro to animation(2D) project(30fps), I've experienced a problem exporting uncompressed TGA image sequence files.
    Here's the workflow I use:
    File> Export> QT Conversion> Image Sequence> Options> TGA, uncompressed 8bit, millions of color, 30 fps> OK
    After exporting a files, I supposed to get 1MB each(file size), but I got less than 1MB each(file size). It tells us that those are compressed files. The size of files is random. when I use Avid Nitris there is no problem but it is different with the Final Cut Pro.
    Do you know what is the best way to exporting uncompressed TGA image sequence files out of FCP? (for Best Quality Output)
    Thank you in advance.
    Jasmine

    Patrick,
    I'm sorry it has taken me so long to reply you. I can't post your request, because Avid is not here. So I will post another example, and I have another question. This is the nearset approach to problem. See below images.
    I use QuickTime 7.1 and Final Cut Pro 5.1.1 in the PowerMac G5 2.0 Ghz.
    1. File > Export > QT Converstion > Image Sequence > Options > TGA, 30, Best Depth
    I supposed to get 1MB each, but I got less than 1MB each. It tells us that those are compressed files, and shows up low quality images. (besides, The size of files is random.)
    2. File > Export > QT Converstion > Image Sequence > Options > TIFF, 30, Best Depth (Compression: None)
    Finally, I was a great success See the files size: all 1MB each. I can get the result that I want/___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png
    OK, now question, I will tell you.
    Why have a different result? (TGA vs TIFF)
    'TIFF options' have a compression option, but 'TGA options' haven't it. So 'TGA image sequence' can't make uncompressed files. For what reason? Do you know any particular reason?
    : TGA Options haven't compression option.
    : TIFF Options have a compression option.
    What's the 'Little Endian'? I don't know this option: Little Endian.
    Could you explain that for me, please? Lay it all out for me, please..
    Thank you for your kindness,
    Jasmine

  • Best Way to Export Single Tracks in Audition

    Hello,
    What is the best way to export one single track (stereo or 5.1) from a multiple track mix in the Multitrack Editor if I want to make it mono? Is it by just muting the tracks I don´t want in the final mixdown and then selecting a mono Master in the Mixdown Options box?
    What about exporting only a few of the tracks from a multiple track mix to one mono file? Same process?
    Thanks!

    "Export all Tracks as Audio Files" found under File>Export.
    This will render audio files of your software instruments that start at bar 1, beat 1, and can be dragged right into Pro Tools. The export happens "pre-fader", so it is bounced at unity gain, and excludes any automation.
    If there is automation that needs to be included (like a filter sweep or something like that), you'll need to solo the track, and bounce it, because a bounced file does include automation.
    Also, if you're using a multi-channel instrument, you'll need to bounce those tracks separately as well.

    Thanks in advance

    What kind of data you are looking to move?
    Database export/import is only supported for full database export/import and the application release should be the same on the source/target nodes.
    You can move the setup using iSetup or FNDLOAD.

  • What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

    Hi All,
    We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
    As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
    What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
    Thanks in advance,
    - Shashi

    Hello Shashi,
    some comments:
    1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
    2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
    3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
    For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

  • Best way to export from AVCHD to highest quality possible

    Hello,
    I just got the Canon HF200, a AVCHD Camcorder and new to Premiere Pro CS4.
    Does anyone have the time and is willing to explain what would be the best way to export AVCHD source material after editing ?
    I'm interested in the best quality you can get out of AVCHD.
    It would be nice to have a list of the settings in Premiere to be customized (i.e. setting up new project, exporting format settings and so on) to have the best quality of the footage exported.
    Thanks in advance
    best regards
    checop

    Geezus the guy just wants a simple answer.
    MASTER FILE / FOR YOUR BLU RAY PLAYER / ARCHIVAL
    1) use the Bluray H.264 preset to get a Bluray master. Best quality, takes a while to encode though.
    Unless it's a five hour movie I'm pretty sure it'll fit on a BD disc.
    GENERAL RULE OF THUMB FOR ARCHIVAL AND MASTER FILES: try to match the final product with your source file.
    If your source is H.264/AVCHD export in that format too (In this case, Bluray H264 preset)
    If it's 1080i then export as such
    If it's 24Mbps then use that bitrate to export as too. Etc. etc. etc.
    Now that's for archiving - getting the best looking Master file. Uploading  your movie to the web is different...
    IF YOU'RE GOING TO SHOW YOUR MOVIE ON THE WEB
    1) use that Bluray master (or encode directly from your CS 4 timeline if you have the time) to WMV.
    Choose the NTSC setting and then customize it.
    640 x 360 or 575 x 324 sizes are good; Make sure to use the SQUARE pixels option since the sizes here are figured for that. Keyframes every 2 seconds, or every 5 seconds if there's not a lot of movement and background business going on. In the 1000 - 1600 kbps range is good (larger dimensions = higher bitrate).
    Audio 96/44 is fine.
    Choose 2 Pass Variable Bitrate for best quality/size ratio.
    If you're using CS4 it'll automatically deinterlace when you encode to WMV. In other programs you need to check "Deinterlace".
    2) Flash (FLV) is popular too. Same sizes, you can get away with lower bitrates than WMV. Requires special players either on the web or on the users' desktop so only do this if you feature the movie on your site and you know how to make a SWF file with your FLV embedded.
    Lost me here? Then just forget Flash for now.
    Other Primer Notes (VERY GENERALIZED SPEAKING):
    Forget MPEG 1. Bad quality/size ratio compared to WMV.
    Use MPEG 2 for archival purposes, but use high bitrates (like 1920 x 1080 @ 24 Mbps or similar. )
    Quicktime is good for archiving too but takes a long time to encode on PCs. Not worth it for web delivery anymore... although there will be Mac fanatics disagreeing with me right now.
    Hope this helps

  • What is the best way to export a .csv/.txt file to a MS Windows shared folder via a scheduled job?

    What is the best way to export a .csv/.txt file to a MS Windows shared folder, when the export process is a scheduled job?

    You can't directly, as scheduled jobs can only export to server-side data stores, which can only write to the landing area. You'll need to use an external script (e.g. batch file) to move the file from the landingarea after export. You can use an external task in the scheduled job to invoke the script.

  • What is the best way to export a slideshow .I like to show my slideshows via appleTV on my TV

    What is the best way to export a slideshow.I like to view  the show trough AppleTV on my television.

    You don't really give us a lot of information to work with, and assume we know something about this mdeia player. The only way to get the slideshow to a media player is to export it from iPhoto. To where? Depends on the media player. Will iTunes work? Depends on the media player. Does the media player have a DVD drive? If so, then burning it to DVD with iDVD will work, but it will be standard def not HD.

  • InDesign / Best way to export for Web?

    Hi guys,
    I did an A2 (large size) poster and now i need to have the very same image for Web Mailing on Internet. I guess it will be a 650 pixeles by 800 px.
    Which is the best way to export this content for Internet? 
    1) I notice that if i save the InDesign file to PDF even in the lowest quality the small text keeps crisp and clear while the file is very small size. Unfortunately PDF cannot be used -i think- as embedded images into a mailing list.
    2) If i export the very same InDesign file at the highest posible resolution as JPG -a traditional Internet image standard- the text is blurred and not well defined, besides the file is quite large.
    3) Should i exported to PDF and then open in Photoshop and "Save for the Web" as JPG? Maybe Photoshop has a better exporting engine when regarding to images than InDesign...i don't know.
    How can i find a way to have well defined crisp and clear text, small size and image? I am not sure i could use PDF format here.
    Any help or ideas? that would be great
    Thanks,
    S

    Thanks for the tip!
    I am sorry i forgot to say i have an A2 and an A3 size poster version. I used the A3 poster and the 650 pixeles poster for Internet actually turn out to be quite readable. I used quite large fonts size in the original design, a bit of a Swiss or Constructivism style poster.

  • Best way to export iPhoto library?

    Hey folks,
    I was wondering what is the best way to export all the master/unedited images I have in my iPhoto 11' collection just to have it all in the Photos folder. I would like to start making the move to Lightroom 4 and give it a test drive. It would be nice to keep the organizational structure that I have going on now in iPhoto with my events. Can any one help? If Lightroom doesnt work out for me, I would want to make a referenced iPhoto Library and keep the images in the photos folder. Thanks for the help.

    Have a look at my first post on this thread, which predates that export option in iPhoto, that pretty much deals with the issue with older versions. One of those options is free.
    I'm just kind of irked by the idea that you should treat folders and files on your own computer as untouchable.
    There are a couple of ways to look at this.
    One: they're not at all untouchable. You have described perfectly how you might touch them. What we're saying is that touching them in that way may cause you dataloss, but if you want to do that, knock yourself out . But know the risks you're running. Look at it this way: there's no reason you have to use the doors on your car. You can jump through the sunroof, but don't be surprised if you hurt yourself on the gearstick.
    Two: If you're the kind of person who really needs to visit with your files and folders for some reason, then run a referenced library. It makes for more work, adds zero extra capability and is likely to store up issues for the inexperienced user, but it's quite possible. For more about how, and the pitfalls:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
    Three: The bigger issue here is that you're going to have problems in the future. The files/folders metaphor is going away in computing now. Everything - even text editors - are becoming databases. The files are just dumb storage, the important part is the data - the actual photos. iPhoto is about the data, not the files. The Finder is about files.
    These two user tips explain this is more detail:

  • Best way to export data with r.t. prompts and have dense dim mbrs on rows?

    Hi All-
    What is the best way to export data with Run time prompts out of Essbase?
    One thought was to use Business Rules with run time variables and DATAEXPORT command, but I came across at least one limitation where I cannot have months (part of dense Time Periods dimension) on rows.
    I have only two dense dimensions: Accounts and Time Periods and I need both of these on rows. This would come handy when user enter Start and End month and year for data to be exported e.g. If start period is Feb 2010 and end is Jan 2011, I get data for all months in 2010 and 2011.

  • Best way to export data for a migration

    Hi Oracle Community,
    What's the best way to export data from an Oracle 8i database for it to be suitable for import into an Oracle 10g database?
    What's the best way to export data if it is to go into different rdbms database?
    Thanks, David

    Thanks everyone for all your help. You guys are great.
    There seems to be many good ways to export your data from Oracle into a flat file format, suitable for import into other RDBS': Oracle, mysql, postgresql, etc.
    A few tools where mentioned but using SQL*Plus, which comes with Oracle (And SQL*LDR on the backend, which also comes with Oracle) seem the most straight forward.
    I found this script on asktom.oracle.com to work great, slightly modified here,
    (to Include linesize max, and pipes rather than commas):
    set echo off newpage 0 space 0 pagesize 0 feed off head off trimspool on
    set linesize 32767
    spool payment.txt
    select
    PAYMENT_ID||'|'||
    USER_ID||'|'||
    <more fields her>
    from
    payment
    spool off
    exit ;
    It works great. Rather than making one of these for each table I wrote an perl script called ora_export. http://crowfly.net/oracle/ora_export. It runs in Unix and only requires SQL*PLUS. It creates these four files:
    <tablename>.def # list of table columns and types (SQL*Plus DESC)
    <tablename>_dump.sql  # a script to export the data
    <tablename>.psv # THE DATA (eq. - name|address|etc)
    <tablename>_load.ctl  # SQL*LDR control for ORCL if you need it.
