C4D scene data importing incorrectly CC2014

Having some frustrating results importing scene data into an AE project with the new CC2014. At first I thought it was a frame rate issue, but fixed all that, started afresh but still problems. I have rendered passes that match the C4D project import, but when I extract the scene data the lights don't match the scene... just slightly out as if the time codes aren't quite matching. Repeated the process in AE CC (previous version) and no problems with everything working as expected. Is this a bug or am I missing something? Have yet to try a different project. Anyone else having similar issues? cheers. Pete

After further investigation it would appear that when you import or create a C4D file in AE, AE automatically imposes a 30fps independently of either the AE project it's created from or the C4D project it's importing. No problems for anyone working in 30fps, but over in PAL land it creates all sorts of problems if you pre render your passes and bring those into AE and replace the C4D extracted passes and add scene data such as lights etc... all very confusing... can Adobe and Maxon please fix this help out the brothers in PAL land.
cheers Pete

  • Extracted C4D Camera data from Cineware does not align.

    My fault for not trying a simple scene in C4D and making sure this would work.
    But alas, I spent the better part of the day animating a Camera (using the CSTools DocuCam setup) in Cinema. It's excatly how I want it. The camera rig is parented to a null which is simply changing its position around the scene. I'm also keyframing a target null that the DocuCam is following. The DocuCam has several xpressions that cause it to "wiggle" and quickly zoom in and out to give a handheld feel.
    First attempt, I brought in the C4d (r14) file into AECC and hit Extract Camera data. Solo'd out just the DocuCam (the currently selected camera in the C4D source file), and added a Solid to the Comp. Scrubbed through the timeline to see if it moved away from the Camera as expected, and it is totally misaligned. The camera doesn't rotate or perform any of the same movement as it did in C4d.
    I also tried baking all the keyframes for each of the elements in the c4d file, and re-import. Not any better. All the frames for the camera do import (without the nulls, etc), but again, it looks like I'd have to muck around with some nulls in AE to (maybe) get everything to align.
    Hoping I'm missing some obvious solution to the problem, or my expectations are out of whack.
    It will be annoying to have to CameraTrack my 3D rendered scene, when I have all that data in C4D.
    Other attempts included:
    Trying to use an .aec file and that only imported 1 keyframe for the camera, despite the baking method.
    Repeat same procedure, this time with External Compositing Tags attached to the camera and assoc layers. Even attached it to a dummy object (Cube) in front of the camera and tag'd it.
    Crazy project, super deadline, thought this would be the right workflow. Any help would be appreciated!

    Hi Rick – I appreciate the advice.
    To answer your question, I have the latest version of CC, just released a couple of days ago, and I'm running C4D r14.041 (not Lite).
    Just to make sure we are on the same page. I don't want to use the AE camera to affect the Cineware layer. I want to extract the camera from the C4d file, so I have a 3D camera in AE, and can then composite other elements over (or "into") my 3D scene so those layers align visually to whatever we are seeing in the C4D scene.
    In fact, I didn't even plan to use the Cineware layer once I got the C4D data, rather planning to render out of C4D an image seq and import back into AE.
    Basically, I have a 3D scene of a town, some buildings... then I want to composite some explosions, etc... but don't want to do that in C4D on planes, but would rather do that as separate layers in AE, so I can control effects on those individually, and then color-grade everything together (with the rendered scene below).

  • IPhoto 11 Faces and Dates are incorrect when synced to iPad/iPod

    iPhoto 11, "Faces" and file creation dates appear to work perfectly when viewed within iPhoto 11 on my MacBook Pro. However, a few dozen Faces and creation dates appear incorrectly and out of chronological sequence when viewed on my iPad or iPod. I have rebuilt my iPhoto 11 library several times and re-synced to the iPad/iPod, but the problem persists. Anyone having the same issue or happen to know of a solution? Thanks in advance.

    iPhoto Version 9.5.1 (902.17)
    It was moved to the library by being imported from an NTFS external hard drive, which has now been reformatted to Mac OS Extended (Case Sensitive, Journaled), the iPhoto library was originally located on the built in SSD drive, but is now located on an external hard drive, due to capacity limitations.
    I am seeing the incorrect face orientations when I view the faces in the faces view of iPhoto, when I go onto a person, some are incorrect orientation.
    But when I click on the files, they are correct.

    They are also incorrect using photo screen savers.

  • Data Import error - Valuation Method (ODBC -1029)

    Hello all, first post on the SCN. I did some search for similar problems, but nothing seemed to help here.
    We are using Business One, two different companies and databases. We were at the time of the year to update the price list, so we used the Administration -> Data Import/Export -> Data Import -> Import from Excel.
    One company (US only) imports perfectly, but the other database (Canada + US) gives me the following error message on 91 / 1036 entries.
    Row Number xxx : [Items - Valuation Method] , 'Field cannot be updated (ODBC -1029)
    Since the errors only appears on one of the two databases, I ruled out that the excel sheet we used to be the problem.
    The excel sheet only has 4 columns : The item identification, the price list that it needs to update, the price, and the currency (USD or $ for us).
    Neither of the two companies use any valuation method. In fact, neither companies have the field at all in Item Master Data, and its grayed out in the Company Details.
    We also made a dump of the entire item database, and compared what items were imported successfully and those that generated the error, and while the column Valuation Method either had nothing or A, there was no pattern to it. Some errors had nothing, some had A in it.
    I checked for any other differences between items that were imported and the ones with error, and cannot see any visible differences, so all I can think here is that its either an invisible setting when the item was created, or there's some character that is creating a fault somewhere (like an empty space).
    One of the topics found on this error message (ODBC -1029) said that we might need to request a script to fix the database, but that topic was back in 2006, I'm not sure if it still applies, 8 years later.
    Essentially I ran out of things to try on my end. Now I can only ask to the experts.
    Thank you for your time!

    The company that has troubles importing does not allow us to change the Valuation Method for each item. The field is missing entirely from the Item Master Data. I included a screenshot.
    The field is grayed out in the Company Details, but its set as Moving Average. The other company uses Moving Average by default as well, from the looks of it (the field does appear in Item Master Data, but its grayed out).
    We used the same excel sheet to import data in both companies, just need to figure out why its 100% on one side and not on the other side.
    Just to be a bit more clear, we cannot select or visualize the Valuation Method on the items that are not getting imported. Its invisible.
    When we exported the full list of items, there was no pattern between the items that are not imported and those that are imported properly.
    To be clear, the Valuation Method for :
    Items that are imported properly are A or blank.
    Items that are not imported and generate an error are A or blank.
    There is no logic between those that work and those that do not, which is why I can't figure it out on my own.
    Thank you!

  • Data Import defaulting Null date to system date

    I am trying to import Campaigns using Data Import, and when End Date is NULL it defaults to system date. Is there any way to avoid this default? Even when I don't "map" the End Date, it still defaults it.
    Thanks!

    This file will always populate itself what you have to try to do is establish what is a good date to put in this section. What i have done is created a System default to be today() + 14 this will mean that the end date will be roughly 14 days after it was created. This is then up to the person running the campaign to change if required.

  • Use of ODI in Data Import scenario

    Hi,
    We are contemplating to use ODI for a Data Import scenario. The flow goes something like this:
    1.A user specified flat file or xml with a mapping between the file columns and base table columns serves as the input.
    (Note that the file column names could be anything and that is why we use mapping).
    2. This file data is stored in a stager table and certain validations are run on this data.
    3. This data is then imported into the base tables.
    I assume we cannot use ODI for step 1 as the file columns are not fixed and can vary. We need to programmatically interpret the data from the mappings. (Is there a way to do this in ODI?).
    If we use ODI for step 3 to import data from stager to base tables:
    - If we have a million records to be imported, then how performant is ODI? Do we need to invoke ODI in batches of (a few thousands) to improve performance?
    - Thanks in Advance,
    Raghu

    Hi Jont,
    Thanks for your reply..
    Here is an example of the mapping that we use:
    Flat File columns:
    AccName
    AccLoc
    Mapping (Specified by the user at run time):
    AccName -->(Maps to) Account.Name
    AccLoc --> (Maps to) Account.Location
    The user would map the file columns to the final target entity fields (like Account.Name) as above.
    Since, we have to store this data in a intermediate staging table, we would have a mapping internally (which is fixed), like
    Account.Name -->(maps to) AccStager.Name
    Account.Location -->(Maps to) AccStager.Location
    where AccStager.Name is the staging table field name.
    Thus, by using these two sets of mapping, we store the file data into staging table.
    Hope this is clear...
    Thanks,
    Raghuveer

  • Data import for users of forms created with Livecycle Designer

    Hello,
    I have seen several posts regarding data import for forms created by Livecycle Designer but nothing that helps with something I am trying to accomplish.  I can create a data connection and import information in a form but what I would like to do is import data, then send the pdf for completion to a user.  There are a few data elements that I have available and the rest of the information comes from from the user.  The problem I run into is once I create a data connection, the pdf is ALWAYS looking for the source file for that data.  I simply want to prepopulate some fields and send to the various users for completion.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Which type of Data Connection are you trying to create?
    XML Schema, Sample Data File or WSDL?
    Creating any one of first two types(mentioned above) will only create schema and will never import any data into PDF.
    If you create the WSDL connection, you can surely import data (i.e. prepopulate data) into your PDF and forward it for users review/fill.
    If I misunderstood your question, please get me clarified.

  • Reset sequence after data import

    Hi all,
    I've got a problem where we import data into a table with an auto-incremented field for a primary key. After the data import, I can drop the sequence, check the max(primary key), and re-create it to start at the max value + 1. My problem is that I need to do this for a large number of tables and don't know how to write a script to do it. In the Create Sequence command, whenever I try to use a variable in the "START WITH" clause, I get an error.
    Thanks in advance,
    Raymond

    Spool sequence creation scipt result in a file and then run it.
    Or use dynamic sql.
    Or You can "drive" sequence forward issuing select myseq.nextval from dual; apropriate times. If You need "drive" sequence backwards alter it with increment -1, issue select myseq.nextval from dual; apropriate times and alter it with previous increment.

  • Data Import Wizard from Excel on DATE column

    I have exported data to a csv in Oracle SQL Developer and one of the columns are of an Oracle Date datatype. In opening up Excel I see the Date column represented as 15-MAY-01 12.00.00.000000000 AM.
    I am now going through the Data Import Wizard to create a new table and import the data. When I get to Step 3 of 4 it reads the data and assigns it a VARCHAR2. I want the column to be Date or Timestamp. In this case I choose timestamp and for format entered DD-MON-YY hh.mi.ss.fffffffff AM.
    When I go to Step 4 of 4 to and click the Verify button I get:
    "Verifying if the Date columns have date formats" Date columns DOT_LOGN_EFDT, have invalid or null date formats.
    I am using Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.0.63 Build 63.73.
    Any idea what I put in the format window to read the excel value of 15-MAY-01 12.00.00.000000000 AM correctly?

    I am not able to reproduce your problem. When I export a date column, I do not get the time portion. This is the expected behavior. When re-importing the date, I therefore have no problem. I have tried manipulating the tools->preferences->database->nls->date format mask to include the time (and fractional seconds), but export still only exports the date portion. The fractional seconds is not valid for a date field, which explains the import error you are getting. The question remains as to why the exported data has the time. Can you describe your exact steps for doing the export?
