Best way to structure multiple track video

I have multiple tracks of music videos from one concert. I have 7 buttons on main page with one track per button. As it is after one track finishes it goes back to the main screen with all choices.
I am wondering how I would structure this in iDVD so it can be viewed either in its entirety or by song.
Thanks!

This question has been asked a few times, so you might want to search and see the full range of responses. Basically, iDVD doesn't allow you that particular option.
A workaround is to create two versions of the concert and put both on the DVD (if there's room). The first version is what you have. For the second version, you'd join all the tracks together into one video, and add that to the DVD.
Note that you can add chapter markers to the second version, and each chapter marker can show up as a menu button in iDVD. It would then function like a commercial DVD, where you could jump to a specific track from the main menu, and then it would play through the rest of the tracks before going back to the main menu (or you can use the remote control to jump tracks forward or backward). If you could be satisfied with this, then you don't need all the individual tracks duplicated on the DVD.

  • What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users?

    (I originally submitted this question under the "Mac OS X Technologies" section, but got no response. I'm submitting a duplicate here because this is where all the smart folks are! My apologies that my question is only partially related to OS X Server . . . )
    What is the best way to sync multiple collections of contacts among multiple users on iOS and OS X?
    For example, suppose I have three collections of contacts: Bob's, Sally's, and Common. I want Bob to be able to access and sync Bob's contacts and Common contacts, and Sally to access and sync Sally's contacts and Common contacts. Bob and Sally never need to access or sync each other's contacts. Bob and Sally would both sync and share contacts in Common.
    How would I best implement this? It's my understanding I have three options for managing contacts across iOS and OS X: 1. iCloud accounts, 2. Install OS X server, or 3. Install and manage Darwin CardDAV directly. Which method would best support what I wish to do?
    I am a seasoned Unix geek well versed in the terminal, so I am prepared to get my hands dirty as much as necessary to achieve what I want. Also, it is sufficient if syncing takes place over WiFi on the local network, in fact, that is desirable versus syncing over the cloud.

    Thanks for your reply Nick101. I see my example was oversimplified. When I say "multiple groups of contacts over multiple users" I'm really referring to N groups of contacts over N users.
    So I need to add Fred, who can access and sync Bob's contacts, Sally's contacts, and Common contacts, as well as Fred's contacts. Can I do it with OS X server?
    You mention you keep your and your partner's contacts administered locally. What keeps you from administering them through OS X server as well?
    I am guessing this can all somehow be accomplished with multiple contact accounts, but I can't find any information on the web explicitly describing this.

  • What is the best way to manage multiple ipods using the same itunes?

    Hi Everyone
    i am trying to manage three different ipods through the one Itunes, all with very different tastes, not sure if I am doing it the best or easiest way so does anybody have a simple solution on what you're supposed to do, to keep it all simple!
    Cheers
    Liv

    If you have created a new Windows user account you need to log out and then log back in with your original user name. By default each Windows profile will have an independent iTunes library.
    If instead you managed to create a new library within the same profile. click the icon to start iTunes and immediately press and hold down the shift key, keep holding until asked to create or choose a library. Click Choose and navigte back to your original which should be at <User's Music>\iTunes.
    Your question as posed was:
    What is the best way to manage multiple iPods using the same iTunes {library}?
    in which case Selected Playlists is probably the best approach. Simply create a playlist for each device, Alice's iPod, Bob's iPhone etc. and sync the device with the appropriate list.

  • Best Way to Aggregate Multiple Announcement Apps and Possibly External RSS Feed

    Hello,
    I have two separate announcement apps (one in sub-site A, and one is sub-site B). I am trying to create a webpart that will display content from both apps together.
    I have tried to setup a CSWP and have been able to set the query to pull in the data (Although it shows expired announcements, which I would need to eliminate). Now, I am trying to customize the display of the CSWP, including the property mapping values
    to display the announcement title (currently working with the URL as a link) and body (truncated like the announcement summary view if possible).
    How can I get the body from the announcement to display? The 'body' field isn't listed as an option in the drop down list of mapping values. Do I need to toggle an option on the separate announcement apps, create a column, map a field, or some combination?
    Also, I'd like to know if it is possible to add in an external RSS feed. Or, if there is a completely different way to approach and accomplish this, please let me know.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    To display the “Body” field of Announcements list properly in Content Search Web Part, you can take a look at this blog about how to customize the display template for a good

  • Best way to achieve multiple paths with quizzes using Captivate 6?

    I’m looking for the best way to achieve multiple paths and quizzes using Captivate 6.
    Here is the scenario: The learner watches general slides 1 – 3 and then chooses between Path A, Path B, or both paths combined.  If they choose Path A then they watch the A portion only and take the A Quiz only. Same happens for Path B and for the two paths combined. The learner would only have to go one path to complete the course.
    What I’m finding is Captivate only has one Quiz results page (even if you create two separate quizzes, it merges them). I was trying to avoid having three separate projects for the same module to keep it simple. I see if I have three separate projects I could use the Multi-SCO Packager to merge them for use on my Moodle LMS. But wait, I don't have the elearning suite, so I don't have access to the Multi-SCO Packager...
    My question is: What is the best approach way to accomplish this goal? Any recommendations?
    Message was edited by: austingina

    Captivate 6 has Branch Aware quizzing.  Turn on that option in Quiz Settings and then your Quiz Results page should only show results for the branch your user visits.

  • Best way to handle audio and video?

    Can someone give me suggestions on best way to handle audio and video clips. 2 issues:
    Audio- I want to avoid problems for visitors who may need to install something to listen, and would like them to be able to remain viewing page while listening. I understand how to set up the Iweb player option, and I understand how to simply link to a mp3 file that relies on the visitors player. I'm thinking I need to "embed a player" (?) which is something I haven't dealt with yet.
    Video- I have a link to a .mov file. It plays it in either a real small box, or if you enlarge it , the image deteriorates. Is there a better way to handle this?

  • Best Way to export synth tracks from logic into Protools LE

    Hi I have recorded my song in Logic using the software instruments and I am going to mix it in protools any suggestions as to the best way to get these tracks out of logic and into protools? Just wondered what different options there are and if there are any audible differences once put into protools. thanks for any thoughts.

    "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.

  • Best Ways to Handle Multiple Users

    First post....heres my question. Can anyone help me determine the best way to handle multiple users in itunes? Some Background:
    My family shares one computer. We have on folder on the hard drive where we keep all our music files. I got an ipod and itunes and added some of the music to itunes and have pretty much used itunes for my music.
    Now my girlfriend got an ipod and I am hoping to somehow keep her music away from mine so to speak. So that I can keep synching my ipod without adding a bunch of music I dont want.
    Is there a way to handle this? So thankfull for any help!

    There is an apple article on this here:

    There are only two ways of transfering things on the iPad.

    From what I have read, you need to connect to iTunes on the supervising PC.

    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

  • Best way to organise multiple large clips and hundreds of subclips

    Situation
    I have the task of producing a suite of short 2 minute videos comprising highlights of several hours of footage in multiple large files.
    I want to extract and manage the highlights in a non-destructive way and organise them according to subject matter.
    I would then use these in several projects to create the highlights videos required.
    I am using Adobe CC, so it's CS6.
    My approach so far is to:
    1. Import all the footage into a single project as individual large clips
    2. Scrub through each clip, set in/outs and extract to subclip, store in subject matter bin
    My questions:
    1.  if I go back to the original footage and edit it, it doesn't seem to flow through to the subclips. How do I make the subclips inherit the attributes of their parent? (e.g. could be sound, colour, etc)
    2. how do I access these highlights bins from another project?
    3. is this the best way to handle my situation?
    Thanks for your input.
    Ric

    I suppose applying the effects to the source clip and rendering out a new source file is one way of doing it.  Just be very careful that you don't compress the output.  And, of course, it will double the amount of hard drive space.  I'd still make all the sub-clips first and use the "paste attributes" command.  I think you can even lasso a whole bunch of clips and paste attributes to all of them at once (they have to be in the timeline, though - not the project panel).
    It shouldn't take an awful lot of hard drive space to duplicate projects.  Just duplicate the "prproj" file, not the whole projects folder (and certainly not the source material).
    Here's a screen shot of my set-up for a complicated, 5-camera shoot of a play:
    The original project (syncing all the cameras up) is 1 MB, each successive archive gets a little bigger but the current project is only 3.8 MB.  I would imagine if you are deleting bins and sequences for the mini-projects, the prproj file would actually get smaller than the original master.
    Okay.. so here's the mantra about non-tape based video... First you back up the card (including the complete folder structure) onto an archive drive.  Next you copy this folder onto an external or RAID or other "real" archive drive.  Then (and only then) do you start editing the material!
    Ideally, you need at least three, physically separate harddrives (not partitions) in an editing station (this is true Windows or Mac).  One drive for the operating system and applications only (no media or projects or anything!).  One for working projects (each project in its own folder) where everything except the source video is stored.  And finally one for the source video.  On my system my OS drive is Tardis ('cuz I'm a geek!).  I have a Projects drive for projects (duh!) a Scratch drive for working video files and an Archive for "finished" projects waiting delivery and back-back-ups of my SD cards.

  • 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!

  • Best way to structure Business Logic

    Hi Experts,
    I am using Web Dynpro for my front-end and application services for the back-end. Which of these is the recommended way to structure the layout of my business logic:
    1) Keep everything in the 'src' folder of the CAF ejbmodule. Structure through the use of packages.
    2) Create an external Java DC, keep all code in there and call the code from the application services. Structure code through both packages and the use of multiple DCs.
    3) Create a child Java DC in the CAF ejbmodule project, keep the code there. Structure code through both packages and the use of multiple DCs.
    4) Some other way which I do not know of???
    I think that (2) is the best way to to this, but I'm not sure and I also don't know how to make the code in the Java DC accessible from the CAF in 7.1. In 7.0 one was required to assemble the Java DC into a J2EE Server Library project and then create the required dependencies. How does this work in 7.1?
    Thanks,
    JP

    Hmm, I guess it would be a rather tough task to have a mapping between all classes (or even packages) and DCs. However it should be fairly intuitive to infer the DC from the class / package name. If still in doubt, you can search for its usage on help.sap.com - most probably you'll find the DC name as well therein.

    According to the <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/javadocs">NW public javadocs</a>, the classes in the com.sap.tc.webdynpro.* packages are "Services in the Web Dynpro runtime environment that can be called by custom coding in Web Dynpro applications", so they're not intended for general use in any type of app.

  • Best way to mix multiple camera angles from multiple performances?

    There has to be a slick way to do this, but I can't seem to figure it out.  I'm hoping someone can offer their advice on the best way to approach this project. (I'm using Premiere Pro CS4)
    I have footage from 2 performances of a high school play that I want to mix together, with 2 cameras used each night:
    Cam1: Friday Right
    Cam2: Friday Center
    Cam3: Saturday Wide Left
    Cam4: Saturday Wide Right
    I only had 2 cameras, but I wanted to capture 4 different angles that I could later mix and match.  The problem is that, as live performances go, you can't count on exact timing from night to night.  It's really simple to do multi-camera editing for one night with the Multicamera Monitor (painfully simple), which works great for the 2 angles that were filmed on the same performance, but if I try to do it with footage from different nights, it only takes about a minute for actions onstage to be so far off between the two nights that I can't switch between cameras with reasonable accuracy.
    Since I will be going back and forth many times among 4 clips, the ideal solution that I have come up with (but I don't think Premiere can do) is to have the ability to set markers or keyframes at certain locations that basically say "switch to MM:SS on camera X now" without actually trimming clips and overlaying them into a single video track.  So basically determining which camera is "Live".  This would let me do rolling edits without having to create a new clip every time I want to switch to that camera angle.
    I may be missing something very simple or over-analyzing something that really won't be that bad, but I'm having a hard time wrapping my mind around the best way to approach cutting back and forth among the same 4 unsynchronized camera angles numerous times.  If nayone has a suggestion I'd love to hear it.
    Thanks,
    -keen

    Time - being in sync...
    Most performances like that shot ( for like a music video ) are done to recorded music ( lip sync and play to recorded music ) ..so timing stays the same to the music...  dont know what kind of performance you shot but this gives you an idea how tough it is to keep timing for music performances.

    If you can't just use one night as suggested earlier by Jim and Stan....I would say bite the bullet and just do what you dont want to do...
    make subclips ( trim clips or whatever ) and forget about rolling edits...
    You might want to consider putting stuff in 4 sequences... day 1, day 2, day 3, day 4...
    make a 5th sequence called "rough cut " or something...
    each time you take a "clip" from one of the 4 sequences move that clip up one video channel ( and copy / paste to your 5th sequence )..which then gives you a visual quick guide what you have USED from the sequences...so you dont waste time scrubbing through stuff you already put into sequence 5....
    You may be able to choose just ONE sound track from one night and just use THAT...and pick shots that FIT those moments in time OK from all 4 sequences....you can play with duration / time of a small clip ( as it is unlinked to the sound in this scenario ) to make it FIT better...but that would be very subtle changes...
    ps...I keep forgetting...some people use the camera to record sound instead of a sound mixer, recorder, etc...so if thats your case what I suggested at bottom of mssg probably would not work...using duration / time...unless its REALLY minor adjustment...hmmmm, maybe export just the sound from a single performance and try using that as your ONE sound file for the performance...I really dont know what you would do if you recorded sound with the cameras...as I would never do that I dont know what to suggest if thats the case...

  • Best way to have multiple arrangements in one project file?

    Hello everybody,
    I am trying to figure out a smart way of having multiple arrangements associated with one project. More importantly, this would allow me to have multiple arrangements associated with the same pool of audio files in one audio window -- without needing to import/export audio.
    In DP this is achieved with multiple "sequences". I am aware this feature is not in Logic. However, perhaps there is a way to achieve a similar process?
    I guess a not-so-elegant approach would be to simply save a new song; however, if I want to use new song audio files in the old song, i'd have to import the new song audio files to the old song. Not a big deal, I guess.
    Thanks,
    D
      Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Thanks for responding Justin & David,
    Let me to try to better explain what I am trying to achieve.
    (Currently my problem is that I am thinking in the "workflow language" of DP, trying to figure out an analogous "translation" in Logic. For those familiar with DP, I am simply wanting to create a new sequence, within the same "song" file.
    Let's say I create a bunch of audio tracks, and compile them into arrangement A. I would like to work on a new idea that may be part of the final piece; So, I would like to have a clean, new arrangement page where I can put some of the previous audio files generated & used in arrangement A, as well as make some new ones. I'll call this arrangement B. So, in other words, arrangement B is a fresh new arrangement page that uses audio files from arrangement A as well as new ones.
    If any previous/current DP users know the best way of approximating DP's use of multiple sequences, I'd love to know what you do.
    I will explain what I am able to do if I were in DP (for the sake of communicating my problem, but not intended to begin a DP vs. LP thread).
    I will use Logic terminology, but DP concept:
    In DP, one can have multiple Arrangement windows that share a pool of audio files from one Audio Window. This allows one to try different arrangements, without keeping track of new/old audio files; and without needing importing and exporting them between songs.
    I have been reading the Project Manager section in the Logic manual. (By the way, I am not seeking a DP functionality in Logic; I am seeing how one achieves a similar workflow approach in Logic.)
    I realize I cannot even explain myself well. Perhaps I should consider the concept of sub-arrangements, and master arrangement. I guess, sub-songs, and work-in-progress master song. The master songs should have all audio files, and sub-songs have whatever audio files were created while working on that particular sub-song. So, with this, whenever I want to go back to master song, I've got to import the audio files from the sub-song.
    This may make sense - & may work smoothly. I've got to try it out.
    (Btw, David, I captured a screen shot, but I don't know where/how to post it.)
    A major thanks to all who have the patience to read so many words for a one word sentence.
    Thanks,
    Danny
