Capture files split
When I capture a file larger than 2GB, FCP splits the file in two files with -v and -v-1 after them. In system settings, I've checked the box "Limit Capture/Export File Segment to: 10000MB" which should allow capture for a file up to 10GB. (The box was previously unchecked, but FCP was still splitting the capture files.) Anyone experience this problem?
Your media drive is formatted as FAT32. One of the limitations of FAT is that individual files can't be larger than 2 GB.
Reformat your media drive as HFS+ and you'll be good to go.

Any way to limit DV captured file size?
Hello all -
When capturing from a DV camcorder when the source is not timecoded, is there a way to cap the max file size? Ideally I'd like to set a size limit, eg. 650mb and then have the files split into project 01.avi, project 02.avi, etc.
Thanks,
SteveSo I gather the answer is No, Premiere Elements cannot split AVI files when capturing from DV camcorders, except by timecode?
I realize there are other packages I can pay for that support the feature but I expect Premiere Elements (at least by v8) to have that capability.
In any event, Easy Video Splitter (doeasier.org) is now free and does the job well. -
TV@nywhere File Split Size limitation?
I have been recording videos and wanted to set the File Split Size to 690mb, leaving some slop room, so the mpeg files would fit on a CD. I ran several tests and found that this file split size made no difference at all. The program would split on the defaults at about 4063mb.
Any others have problems with this?The crappy software supplied with the TV@nywhere range is very buggy and one of the bugs is the file split option. I found that no matter what size it was set to within MSIPVS it would nearly always split the file at the default split size even with an NT file system. This is probably a registry entry problem, so you may be able to by-pass the software via the registry but do not attempt it unless you are happy editing the registry.
I personally never trust any software to split my video files and perfer to capture the video as one complete file (not possible with MSIPVS unless file is smaller than the default split size because of the bug) and then split it manually at more suitable points within the video. You can use Tmpeg, VirtualDub or simular to proform the splits. By do it this way you do not get people cut off in mid sentence or find you have to change CD etc part way through an action sequence. -
Unable to capture files into external hard disk because of 'drop frames '
I haven't been able to capture footage from my DV camcoder thru firewire to an external hard disk in FCP because i get a message saying 'drop frames were detected'.
This happens when i selected this external hard drive as the scratch disk in FCP.
When i deslect it and select my user hard disk as the scratch disk, the capturing works perfectly. But i just want to capture all my capture files into the external hard disk, not my user hard disk.
The external hard disk's speed is 3500 - could that be the problem? Is it too slow? Its connected thru USB and it is Mac Os Extended Journaled. Its got 250gb of space, so that's not the issue.
Can anybody help me?
Thank you.No, its a Panasonic gs180, a really good camera.
The camera itself is connected to my computer through firewire. Its the hard disk enclosure that is connected to my emac through USB. Anyway, i'm sure that's not the problem, casue like i said, the capturing works fine when i use my user hard disk as the FCP scratch disk.
The problem i have is when i try to capture footage from my camera to the external hard disk enclosure. When i press 'capture now' and press play, the playback stutters and a messsage appears saying, "drop frames detected" and the capturing stops.
I feel like i need to adjust something in FCP itself - like a preference or something - just not sure what.
Thnx for your suggestion though and if you know what i should do, please let me know. -
Download Helper Screen Capture worked to capture video if the default "no audio" option is active. But, no audio. The "speakers" or "microphone" audio options are confusing....the audio to be captured is from the video, so what do you choose? With either "speakers" or "microphone" selected, the captured file has poor audio and no video. Re-capture efforts (speakers) get "Invalid capture file error" and "File Creation error- Unable to rename/copy audio file"
The paid upgrade of "Converter" doesn't work.
Instructive documentation - not very good.
Suggestions - Need time delay between initiation of "Record" and starting the video to be recorded.
Could use timer tracking of the record process.
Are there operating system limitations? (Have Windows XP Pro)That is an issue for the developer of that Download Helper.

How do I add time/date stamp to my screen capture file names?
I'm on mac osx.
I'm trying to add time/date stamp to my screen capture file names. (at the moment it's just 'Picture 1' etc..)
I've tried the following command in terminal but have not had success. please help!!
defaults write com.apple.screencapture name "datestamp" at "timestamp"
killall SystemUIServerSurely someone else will provide a better solution. Meanwhile, however, you might want to try the following script. Copy and paste the script into the AppleScript Editor's window and save it as an application. Then drop your screen capture files on the droplet's Finder icon.
on open theDroppedFiles
tell application "Finder"
repeat with thisFile in theDroppedFiles
set theFileName to name of thisFile
if (word 1 of theFileName is "Picture") and ¬
(word 2 of theFileName = word -2 of theFileName) then
set theExtension to name extension of thisFile
set P to offset of theExtension in theFileName
set theCreationDate to creation date of thisFile
set dateStamp to short date string of theCreationDate
set timeStamp to time string of theCreationDate
set name of thisFile to "Screen Shot " & dateStamp ¬
& " at " & timeStamp & "." & theExtension
end if
end repeat
end tell
end open

Hi all
I have a problem with splitting an flat file into multiple IDocs. My attempt was to do this without BPM as mentioned in some similar posts, but I am not sure about how to get the file splitted. The flat file has multiple orders with multiple line items and each order should create a single IDoc of type ORDERS.ORDERS05. I have imported the IDoc as external definition with IDOC being 0...unbounded. My input file looks as following:
ORDER1|LINE1|SOMETHING
ORDER1|LINE2|SOMETHING
ORDER1|LINE3|SOMETHING
ORDER2|LINE1|SOMETHING
ORDER2|LINE2|SOMETHING
I have been getting this into the appropriate PI XML structure like:
MT_Order
...OrderRecordSet (0...unbounded)
......OrderRecord (1...1)
How do I get this into multiple IDocs for each ORDERx with its n LINE items? I was thinking of SplitByValue with value change on PO, but this doesn't seem to work.
Any feedback appreciated. Thanks,
DanielDear Daniel,
You can achieve the required by using MultiMapping without BPM. Pls refer to the following blog for the same,
/people/jin.shin/blog/2006/02/07/multi-mapping-without-bpm--yes-it146s-possible
Apart from the above, if allowd you can changed the IDOC occurrence and change the XSD of the IDOC and you can achieve the requirement with the simple message mapping.
Thanks

Hi all,
We have a requirement that the receiving application can accept files only of size 2MB. So this is a limitation from the receiving application
The source system is SAP ECC system and the receiving application is a legacy application.
Technically it is a ABAP Proxy to File scenario. Receiving application can accept files only in XML format.
SAP ABAP Proxy code is written in such a way to read all the records in a SAP table and the full table load is sent as an proxy xml message to PI, PI has to split this full xml file in to chunks based on some condition and then transfer it to receiving legacy application.
Can we achieve file splitting in PI for XML files based on no.of records or size.
Please share your inputs/pointers to provide the best solution to this requirement.
regards,
YounusHi,
Yes this can be done by the amount of records you send through at a time.
So lets there is 10000 records. You might only send 200 at a time and that will keep it under the 2mb limitation.
This is a simple if function on your nodes. Please see the links below that would help you.

Setting file name of captured file in DVRcast application
I've looked through the scripts in the scripts/ directory, but haven't seen anything obvious.
I would like to be able to specify the file name to capture the stream to. At present, the capture file is always named the same as the stream, which means if I stream for a bit, stop, then restart, the originally captured file gets overwritten. I'd like to be able to incorporate something, i.e. the stream start time, into the capture file name.
Pointers to where I can do that?Good that you found the previous issue solved
For me, the best always is to go for mp4 format irrespective of the encodings. MP4 can support VP6/H264/MP3 and AAC.
And for FMS to record a file in mp4/f4v format, you need to prefix a mp4: to the stream name while publishing and/or recording. This "mp4:" mentions the FMS to load the mp4 module and all the stream actions are now under its control.
It is a general usage that for VP6-MP3 we go for FLV format (for which no prefix is needed) for H264/AAC , we go for MP4. But as I said, MP4 can serve all your purposes.
There are no APIs as such on FMS that I can think of , to do this. All you need to do is to add the prefix or not. It can be controlled either through a good client logic or , can be totally eliminated by having a singular structure.
Hope this also helps you for your work , Thank you ! -
Idoc to File Split Scenario..
HI Experts,
My scenario is Idoc to File split scenario..
Idoc will be triggered from the SAP ECC system and at the target side we need to drop two text files at the ftp directory.
so Idoc data needs to be splitted and to be dropped in two differient files in the target FTP directory..
So can any one suggest how to go ahead with the scenario..
Thanks,
--Kishore.Hi,
In the idoc, some of the data will go to onefile and some goes to other files..
the structures of the two files are differient..
There is no condinal spliting here every idoc contents should be mapped according to the requirement and dropped as two files.. at the target end.
for ex:
Idoc
field1
fileld2
field3
field4
in the out put side
file1 should contain
field1
field3
field4
file2 should contain
field1
field2
fileld3
This is what the requirement, if you are not getting reply back with your queries..
Thanks,

File-splitting based on content.
Hi Experts,
This question is regarding file-splitting.
Its a BAI2 file with multiple records in it.
a)I need to split the file based on an identifier and make those many sub-files ( with header and trailer added to the file )
b)And can we ensure we have the same name for the files? ( with a count suffixed in the end )
The forum talks about BPM, Enhanced Interface/Receiver Determination, Message Mapping split etc..
Which would be the best approach for this?
Please advise.
Thank you,
Rakesh.Hi,
Using Enhanced Interface/Receiver Determination approach is best one.
1.If your version is 7.1 and above, you can also try using enhanced interface determination. Please go through the below link
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/90dcc6f4-0829-2d10-b0b2-c892473f1571?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true
2.In the Receiver Determination, you need to select " Extended" in the Type of Receeiver determination.

FCP captured files showing as Unix Executable
I know there's been a bit of discussion about this problem but I wanted to see if someone could shed a bit more light on my situation. For the past few years we've been doing all our video capturing (using FCP 5.1.4 capturing in HDV) and editing on a PowerMac G5 running 10.4. Once finished with a project it would get packaged to a larger Dell file server. When we upgraded to a new imac and FCP 7 all of our projects mov files were showing up as Unix Executable. I tried chmod -x but it didn't really solve the problem. What does work is this:
1. Transfer an entire project from the dell file server to my PowerMac G5.
2. Connect to the PowerMac G5 from my Core i5 iMac through network.
3. The project movie files from the G5 show up normally in the finder of my i5.
4. Connect to dell file server from my i5.
5. Transfer files from the G5 to the dell file server via my i5.
6. Files show up properly from the dell server on my i5.
Now this is all well and good cause it seems to work. The problem is we have thousands of files and terabytes of projects. Obviously OS X is just changing something small in the file about how it reads it. Is there a way I could alter this directly on the dell server without having to transfer all my files in the way described above?
Hope this makes sense. Thanks.Looks like I may have fixed my own problem. FCP never used to put an mov extension on any of it's captured files. Simply putting it on seems to have fixed the problem. Still really doesn't explain why the previous method worked, but it's a lot easier making an automator action to put extensions on than transferring terabytes of data.

Total time ( all capture files)?
Hi there.
Just wondering if there is a way to know the total amount of time for all of the capture files listed in Final Cut Express 4.0, other then adding the time of each clip together manually?
thank you.
Cheers,
deanNo, not that I'm aware of.
The real files are stored on your Scratch disc/s. So manual addition is the go.
There is a 3rd party app called What Size that may assist. I beleive it's free.

Didn't know where else to post a question like this..
I want to view a certain capture file and see what's happening. I want to userstand the attack and explain how the overlapping IP fragments are be used but i have no clue.
Does anybody know anything about this or know more about it and can inform me on some information about this as to what is going on??? I have no idea how to know what is happening here in this file and was looking for some answers or a website that can teach me.There is something i'm not getting, all I have to do is see what is happening describe the attack and explain how the overlapping IP fragments are used.
But when I open this certain capture file, all I see is what is displayed in front of me, a list of all the packets which protocols they are, etc.... but I don't know what it all means???? To me it's just a bunch of characters, How do I know what is actually happening???
For instance.... the first one...
NO. Time SOURCE DESTINATION PROTOCOL INFO
1 0.00000 Cisco_7c:eb:3d Cisco_7c:eb:3d Loop Loopback
It's like okay, but what does that mean??? -
Exporting FCP capture files for PC scum....
HI Ya'll,
Challenged Montanan back from the south.... (but leaving again).
My challenge is to send DVD's to my editor in LA la so he can cut a new demo for a presentation coming up in Guatemala.
Here is what I did:
Took the capture files (Quicktime) from the Scratch folders and burned them to DVD. Then I checked them on the laptop. Looked great.
Just got a call from the guy in LA. He has audio but no VIDEO... how ? The extensions are off. and He is on a PC. I'll get more details.
I paid for him to upgrade from his quicktime to QT Pro --no difference...
These are HD files and show up great on our time line here. Should this work or did I screw up something???
Please Help?
