Building a PC for faster rendering and real time workflow

Hi guys - need help if possible since I'm not into hardware all that much...
I have a few problems when using Premiere Pro CS6 which resulted in thinking of buying a new computer:
1) Exporting a one hour full HD video takes about 23 hours (no effects except color correction)
2) When making a color correction it is impossible to preview it on timeline even in 1/4 resolution - video starts to jitter so I have to export it to realize that some scenes are too dark, too light, too something, etc. And, as said, it takes around 23 hours... So this makes it 46 hours...
3) Using a multicam view is extremely jerky and so - pretty useless
All in all - I need a computer with a lot more muscle. So, I went through many forum discussions, read on the Internet, blah, blah.. and decided to build a PC rather than MAC since I get more "bang for the buck" when considering the same budget (around 3000$). Speaking of this, please consider that I live in Croatia and 3K$ here are not the same as in USA or many parts of Europe - it's a little more pricey here...
So, here's the setup so review it if you're into hardware and CS6 compatibility/optimization and please comment/advise, having in mind the problems I have previously stated out.
Just one thing - please, please, please don't get too complicated because I really don't know that much about hardwareing and I'm pretty fed up with exploring hundreds and hundreds of posts, opinions, forums, etc....
Make it simple - is it a good choice or not for CS6 workflow and which component should I potentially change for a better one (but staying in budget).
I use Premiere for editing full HD videos (sometimes I get nearly 500GB of raw material) and I frequently use After Effects for various animations.
Thanks a lot!

Intel core i7 3930K (3.2 GHz, hex, 1.5 MB, 12 MB, Socket 2011, box), good choice
MSI x79-GD65-8D, consider Asus
Asus GTX 690 - 4GB, wrong choice. a 670 is more than enough
Kingmax SSD 60BG (for windows and cs6), consider a Corsair PP 128 GB
Seagate HDD Desktop Barracuda 7200 (3TB, 64MB, Sata III-600), make that 3 or 4 disks
Corsair 32GB, DDR3, 1600 MHz, as long as they are max 1.5V and 8 GB sticks
Spire 750W Black Eagle, better look at Seasonic or Corsair Gold+ rated PSU's and maybe increase W to 850.

Hardware recommendations for fast render and export?

I'm looking for a new Mac for video editing and wonder what to go for for fast render and export times. Is it fast a cpu, cores, lot of ram, vram or a fast graphic processor that primarily determines the speed?

Processors mainly. RAM contributes a little, but mainly helps with having multiple apps open, or for RAM hungry apps...FCP isn't one. Graphics cards help with plugins that rely on them...but not all plugins utilize that. Processor is the main thing.
Exporting to...H.264? Then you can look at the Matrox MAX hardware encoder...or the MXO2 line with the MAX integrated.

How do you run to Drives on the same screen. I installed a ssd and a hhd to my mac but i can only view the content of the drive only if i boot of that drive. Im try to have my ssd for fast boots and hhd for my music,movies etc. Please help.

I installed a samsung 840 pro SSD to my primary slot and relocated my 1.5 TB HDD to a data double where my optical drive was. I transfered my apps and Mac OS X to my SSD for fast boots and all my itunes movies, music, Iphoto etc to my HDD. I rebooted off my SSD then seen all the data on my HHD itunes movies, music, iphotos etc i cannot view on my SSD. So my question is how do you view all the content on both the ssd and hdd on the same screen with having to boot off one or the other?

No, what I'm saying is that once you boot into OSX, you should be able to see both drives listed. If you don't then either OSX is hiding the other drive because it sees it as a boot drive and is trying to protect the contents from novice users or there's another problem. If it's the first thing (i.e. it's a protection thing), then your only option would be to boot into the old drive, copy off all your personal data to an external backup drive, then reboot into the SSD and go into Disk Utilities and wipe/reformat the second drive so that you can see it as a regular secondary drive. Then when you see it as that, you can copy your data back to it.
Be carefull poking around in Disk Utility as you can easily lose your data. It's possible the Mac just isn't mounting that second drive because it sees it as another boot drive. Whatever you do, don't accidentally erase it without getting a copy of your data off of it because you obviously don't have that on your SSD now.

Remote Extractor and Real Time Infocube for SEM BCS

Hi Experts,
I have somes doubts about the integration between SEM and BW.
There is a cycle that have the next processes:
1.- begin in R/3 with the movements in FI, CO and/or general ledgers
2.- Activate the extractors standards for replicate/extract data to BW. For example, 0FI_GL_XXXX.
3.- Configure a method for take the information from BW to SEM.
4.- My doubt begin here... For take the information from SEM to the real time infocube, where I configure? What Have I for configure?
The real time infocube, What is the proposal? Where take the data? Here, Do the remote extractor begin to apply?
Thank you very much for your collaboration.
Regards,
Jeysi Ascanio

We're using 0FI_GL_20 to read directly from FAGLFLEXT into SEM-BCS via a BI remote cube. There are some basic transformations in BI to "populate" the remote cube, then a standard Load from Data Stream in BCS to do final mappings. In the BCS workbench, just create a source data basis off the remote cube.
This works at my current project due to fairly low ECC data volumes. If you are doing any complex mapping on the Company or Fiscal Year / Period infoobjects, you may need to create a inverse mapping routine in the remote cube to transfer selection criteria. If you see messages in the monitor following a data load such as "xx,xxx of xxx,xxx records ignored", that means that you are reading too much data from ECC and it is only getting filtered on the BCS side. We had this problem with a custom extractor and adding an inverse mapping routine cut the load from ~5min to 30sec. (Basically, the custom, template-delivered, extractor only had 0FISCPER, not 0FISCPER3 and 0FISCYEAR, so we would read all 17 K4 periods into BI, map them into BCS, then BCS would throw out the unneeded periods. Unfortunately, we did not have the option to change the extractor, so this was the best approach.).
If I had large data volumes, I would use a regular BI basic cube for staging (or possibly a multi-cube with a mix of basic and realtime, depending on the load requirements to BCS).
If you use 0FI_GL_20, I would strongly recommend you implement OSS Note 1245822, or be on SAP_APPL 603.0002 or later.
Hope that helps,

Problem with DAQmx and Real Time PCI-7041/6040E.

Problem with DAQmx and Real Time PCI-7041/6040E.
I have a problem with the Real Time card PCI-7041/6040E, I think it is properly installed because my software run with the traditional NI-DAQ. When I try to use the new DAQmx to acquire one signal, Labview doesn't see any device for de DAQ card 6040E.
Information, I work on Windows XP and LabView v7.0.0 (NIDAQ RT v7.0.0, NI-Serial RT v2.5.2, NI-VISA v3.0.1 and NI-Watchdog v2.0.0).
Could Labview RT run with new DAQmx ?
What can I do to use DAQmx with PCI-7041/6040E?
Thanks for your help !

Hello,
I refer to your posts because i am using the PCI 7041/6040E card as
well but without any success to make it work. The problem I have
already described in the following thread:

How to build sql query for view object at run time

Hi,
I have a LOV on my form that is created from a view object.
View object is read-only and is created from a SQL query.
SQL query consists of few input parameters and table joins.
My scenario is such that if input parameters are passed, i have to join extra tables, otherwise, only one table can fetch the results I need.
Can anyone please suggest, how I can solve this? I want to build the query for view object at run time based on the values passed to input parameters.
Thanks
Srikanth Addanki

As I understand you want to change the query at run time.
If this is what you want, you can use setQuery Method then use executeQuery.

Please reply if any one have suggestion...

I can't seem to decide between the 13" or the 15" MacBook Pro. I had a 14.5 in Dell which crashed on me for the third and last time. It was also my primary home computer. Is the 15" necessary or should I just get the 13"?

I can't seem to decide between the 13" or the 15" MacBook Pro. I had a 14.5" I'm just used to that size. Dell which crashed on me for the third and last time. It was also my primary home computer. Is the 15" necessary or should I just get the 13"? I probably won't be doing any graphics or anything like that.

It is really a matter of your personal preference. You have to choose between the extra carrying convenience of the smaller machine and the greater "real estate" of the bigger. I use a 15", and have not found it inconvenient for carrying, even on aircraft, where it has to share backpack space with an SLR camera and assorted lenses.

Looking for Pre-Rendered Editing / Color Grading Workflow suggestions.

Looking for Pre-Rendered Editing / Color Grading Workflow suggestions.
All my material is rendered via RenderMan, our resolution is 1280x544, and our format is generally .exr in 32 bit space.
Our editor has been converting over to 32-bit tiffs, and using Apple Intermediate Codec for editing, mostly for speed concerns.
We need to re-vamp our workflow so that we can edit our footage, and then do color grading of the edit head to tail to smooth the look between scenes. We want to do this in Color, being fed by Final Cut Pro's timeline.
We want to keep our bit depth as high as possible when coming into Color.
My question is, does anyone here have any workflow suggestions for doing what I am talking about.
I wasn't sure if we should just export and EDL from FCP and try to get Color to load our single frames from that. Or if there is a special Quicktime wrapper we should be using, or converting our 32-bit .exr files into some other format more readily available for using in Color?
Any thoughts would be great, thanks in advance!

You're not going to get anywhere beyond 10-bit. That's it.
Try encoding to 10-bit LOG dpx if you need upscale RGB.

Fico interview questions and Real time tickets with resoving details

hi sap gurus
i have done sap-fico iam in job trails. can any body help me Fico interview questions and Real time tickets with resoving details

Edited by: chinna prasad on Jun 5, 2008 4:10 PM

Hello Prasad,
Before attending interviews.....First you need to understand general things like CV writing, projects, sub modules etc., you should be gain knowledge on these concepts then you can move further.
1. CV 2.Projects 3.your strenths in sap (reading..reading...reading....practice...practice...practice)
2.you please interact with your friends who is on trails, then you can get more information like interview process, methodology, technical etc.,
I am sending some real time interview tech questions which will useful for you.
Questions:
1.When tickets are raised by end users who will give priority? After resolve the tickets who will close the status?
2.In real time at a time how many normal periods, special periods, MM periods we can open?
3.What is client dependant & Independent?
4.How to transport configuration settings from one client to another client or production client, which tools we can use for transport?
5.Why we donu2019t assign business area to company code?
6.What is the difference between General GL A/c, Control A/c, Reconciliation A/c & Offsetting A/c?
Answers:
1.The priority is generally decided by the Coordinator on the client side. After tickets are resolved, they will have to be closed by the coordinator on the customer site
2. In FI as many as you wants. In MM only 2 (current month + previous
3.Certain tables and customizations made in one client will affect the other clients also - then it is cross client i.e, client dependent. While if the changes made in one client has no impact on the other client - it is said to be client independent
4.Transports from one server to the other can be made with the help of transport requests. When a configuration is done the system generates a request number. First release the task and then release the request. Use TC-SE10 / SE09, SE09: workbench transport; SE10: customizing transport. But currently no such difference actually exists.
5.because in case of multiple company codes, same business area can be used across company codes. Business area is cross company code, means it is not confined to one company code thatu2019s why we don't assign BA to any of the company codes. It is client dependant, not company code dependant. We can pass values from one company code to any of the BA in that client.
6.General GL Account are those used for standard posting like for example Income and Expenses Accounts
- Control Account are basically used for reconciliation between modules like FI and CO, to ensure that both the modules are in sync.
- Reconciliation Account are those specific covering ADK (A-Assets, D-Customer, K-Vendor). For example a Customer Master would be mapped to a Bills Receivable Reconciliation Account and any transaction that needs to be posted are done against the customer code.
- Offsetting Account are used for variety of reasons and few examples are Intercompany Postings, at the time of Implementation when TB and Balance sheet are uploaded would be offsetted against a dummy account.
All the best.....dont forget and pl assign points if useful and if u have any querries pl revert back
thanks

Enabling the Active Dataguard and Real Time Apply

11.2.0.2 on AIX
I gather that , to enable Active Dataguard, you need to execute
STARTUP ; ----not startup mount
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT;The above commands will enable both Active Dataguard (Real Time QUERY) and Real Time Apply. Right?
To enable just 'Real Time Apply' , I need to
startup mount
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE DISCONNECT;Am I right ?
Question on 'WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN' clause
While googling I've come across the following variant with an additonal 'WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN' clause
ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE USING CURRENT LOGFILE WITH SESSION SHUTDOWN;What difference does this clause bring ?
Is this claused used to enable Active Dataguard feature or 'Real Time Apply' or both ?

What is the url of the file your are downloading?
What web browser are you using?
What type of connection do you have to your isp? phone line, dsl, cable, fios...
Try iCab. It lets you restart a download.

How can I switch the region code on MBP w/ DVD drive for the 5th and final time?

How can I switch the region code on MBP w/ DVD drive for the 5th and final time? It brings up the window with that world map to do it, including the warning that "this is the 5th and final time I can do this", when inserting a DVD and opening "DVD Player", but it never executes my click on the "Change Drive Region" button prompt.
VLC or Quicktime Player won't play it either, but won't bring up that window to change Region Code anyway....
Otherwise, I'm not having any other issues with this MBP at all. Peak performance on all counts :-)
I tried resetting SMC after chatting w/ Apple Support, but it didn't help.
That was the link they provided. Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac
Tried zapping PRAM as well.
Thanks for any clues, Rene

Region encoding is the mechanism that enables motion picture studios to control the worldwide release of their movies. It is required by the DVD Forum (http://www.dvdforum.org/forum.shtml) in all commercial hardware DVD players. Every DVD-Video disc contains one byte of data representing a region code, which limits where the disc can be played.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2397
Once you have set the region in DVD Player five times it cannot be changed. However see this also:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA25416?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
Instead, use VLC to view videos from different regions:
