Captured TC from BMD counts backwards inside PPro CC

Setup as following:
Epic SDI out (1080p25) through BMD DecklinkHD Extreme3D+ captured via PProCC. TC is TOD and shows the correct time on the outputmonitor (JVC-DTV24-G1) when capturewindow is activ.
But a captured file in projectwindow always shows mediastart at 08.06.40.00 and counts backward (i.E) 08.06.32.00
When capturing through the BMD Mediaexpress the correct TOD is shown (imported in PProCC.
Is there a setting what I´m missing or what else can I try?
thx

updated:
I just noticed that all captured files (with wrong TC) in the project window are interpreted as upper field first. But my capture settings are defintely progressiv (not psf, real progressiv)
Is PPro not able to handle progressive capture ála Epic in a correct way?
btw:PCwin7/64

anyone? from Adobe?
I read all helpfiles, looked at tutorials regarding capturing, but there is no mention about TC via SDI, only capturing via rs232 or firewire, which is from the last century.
So a question to Adobe:
Is PPro able to live capture a correct TC over SDI with a BMD card in a professional way?
thx

I need a buffer to capture audia from a microphone

I need to save audio data, while recording, in a buffer, but i dont know what are the classe i have to use an where to put the necessary code. Here is some code i use for capturing audio from a microphone. I appreciate if you can help me.
Vector deviceList = CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList(new AudioFormat("LINEAR", 48000, 16, 2));
processor = Manager.createProcessor(device.getLocator());
processor.setContentDescriptor(new ContentDescriptor(FileTypeDescriptor.MPEG_AUDIO));
dataSource= processor.getDataOutput();
path = System.getProperty ( "user.home" );
String nombre="prueba";
DatSink dest = new MediaLocator("file:"+path+File.separator+nombre);
filewriter = Manager.createDataSink(dataSource, dest);
filewriter.open();
filewriter.start();
processor.start();

You do realize that JMF does not record MP3 files, right?
And if you want to put a buffer in somewhere, you can put it anywhere you want...but the most logical spot would be inside of the DataSource that's capturing the audio.
[http://wiki.java.net/bin/view/Javapedia/JavaSoundDataSourceSampleProgram]
You could use that code, and just insert a buffer in the read function...

Is it possible to use "Delay Values" to create a frequency signal from digital "Count Edges" -task? (= are the results I'm getting correct?)

Hello.
I have a digital encoder from which I need freaquency information (to ultimately get rpm -infromation). The problem is that this task is inside a loop with 2 other DAQmx -tasks that are using "one sample on demand"-aquisition mode and if I configure this new counter task to be a freaquency task, it only updates once in ~ second which makes the whole loop lag.
I thus created an "artificial" freaquency signal by using "Count Edges" -aquicition mode and the "Delay Values" -block so that I substract the delayed signal from original "Count Edges" -signal. There is a 0,01s delay in the loop and I figured out that if the history of the "Delay Values" -block is 100 samples I would thus get the real edge-freaquency.
I tested this configuration and the results seem to be at least really close to correct but I have no idea if this idea is in any way correct...
This explanation was probably quite confusing so please see the picture attached.
Thanks a lot in advance!

First of all, thank you for quick reply. Unfortunately I don't have the acces to the vi. until tomorrow.
And yes, I think you understood correctly: essentially this arragement measures how many edges have been counted during one iteration. This is how I figured out that this could then be used as a frequency measurement:
1. From the "Edges - Delayed Edges" I get the information on how many edges have been counted during last iteration.
2. I "know" (really I don't?) that one iteration lasts ~0,01s because of the delay in the loop.
3. There is 2048 edges in one round of the encoder so I get the rpm as follows: rpm = (edges - delayed edges)/204,8*60(s)
(If I was using history size of one as you suggested it would be: rpm = (edges-delayed edges)/2048 * 60) However using history size of 10 and taking it account in the multiplication smoothens the response nicely.
But doesn't this arragement count on the fact that the vi runs smoothly and there is no additional lag?
I quess using another loop and notifiers for a dedicated freaquency measurement as you suggested could be worth trying. I just have to first learn how to use them.
If I do use them will the main loop run smoothly and not wait for every update of the notifier? This would be essential since the freaquency output refresses only about once in a second if I use the continious aquisition mode.

Help To Count Backwards

Hi,
Im very new to Java, started two weeks ago at uni, i missed most of this semester due to illness, i was not looking forward to coming back having missed sooo much but found i quite like Java.
We have been given our project to build a gui phone (point and click, basic stuff) which accepts various coin amounts, works out the time for the call by simple math.
What i cannot do for the life of me, or even get my head around is counting backwards the time for the call. I have looked at sleep() count() and wait() but seen to get caught in the loop.
Here is the code:
    private void jBtnCallMouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
        String tempTime;
        int time;
        tempTime = jLblCallDurationTime.getText();
        time = Integer.parseInt(tempTime);
        while (time > 0){
            try {
                time = time - 1;
                Thread.sleep(1000);
            } catch (InterruptedException e) {
                jLblCallDurationTime.setText(Integer.toString(time));
    } I do not quite understand the try & catch, im a noob, please go easy, we are doing all coding within the main class.
Additionally, i would like to post the entire code for pointers on bad habits if anyone has time?
Regards
Doo

Thanks for your replies guy's,
I was trying to setText() in the catch??? is this not write.
I want the gui to be responsive as users need to deposit more coins as the seconds timer gets below a certain amount.
Here is the whole main class code.
Ill check back later, im getting ear ache from my wife for spending too much time on this...lol Any help or advice is greatly apprieciated. (i have a lot of repeated code i know) but as i said my Java is only two weeks old!

Months: Counting backwards

To create a rolling display in a report I would like to allocate sequence numbers to months (in this case counting backwards).
For example, if the current month is November, then 200611 would be 01, 200610 would be 02, 200609 would be 03, etc.
I can supply a number (neg or pos) to command ADD_MONTHS to calculate months in the future or in the past but is there a way to do the oposite: To declare two months and return the number of months difference between these? For example if the two months are 200603 and 200511, the code would return '4' (Nov 2005 is four months before Mar 2006).
I hope that someone out there has a trick (a snippet of syntax) to do this? That would be a great help to us.
Many thanks,
Alan Searle

select months_between(to_date('200603', 'YYYYMM'), to_date('200511', 'YYYYMM')) from dual

Unable to capture video from VHS through DAC-200

(Running Final Cut Pro 5.1.4)
I have a DAC-200 to hook up my VCR to my G5 in order to capture video from VHS tapes into Final Cut. I had this set-up working a few months ago, but it was disconnected to rearrange equipment and now I can't get it working again. I have followed the advice from the DAC-200 installation instructions and advice from other forum topics but can't seem to get it to work. I finally was able to get something in the log and capture window besides "preview disabled" and "cannot capture because there is no video." I now can get Final Cut to capture video, however it only captures a blank black screen (and this is all I can see in the preview window).
I've triple-checked every cable hook-up, the G5 recognizes the converter box, the video tape plays fine to a tv. I've even had our IT-guy here at work come check out my set-up for help and he can't figure out what is wrong either. (He did get my log&capture window to get white fuzz in the black screen at one point though. Does that mean anything?)
Any help is greatly appreciated! (I'm happy to answer any other questions too.) Thanks!

I had difficullty with the X.4.10 plus QT7.2 and put my info on the Forum as well as sending feedback to Apple. Shortly afterwards, Apple brought out a short security update which I downloaded and, hey presto, I was then able to use QT7.2 with OSX.4.10. It may be that you missed out on the later small update to QT7.2..... ? Another factor I found was that some little while later I again had a problem so I again installed QT7.2 and over-installed FCP5.1.4 which has resolved my problems for the time being. Worth a try if you still can't get through on the DAC.

Unable to capture video from webcam in JMF in xlet

hi
I am unable to capture video from webcam in an Xlet. I am using Xletview to run Xlet. The method CaptureDeviceManager.getDeviceList(vidformat) returns empty array. Which videoformat should I use and why do I get empty array?
Thanks
Rajesh

MHP and OCAP only use JMF 1.0, which does not include support for capturing video. You will not be able to do this in any current MHP/OCAP imlementation that I know of.

Capturing data from ALV grid

Dear experts.
Can anyone help me to capture data from ALV grid to pass to a BAPI FM.
My ALV grid has the check box as first column and I want to capture only the rows in the grid with these checkboxes checked. I would prefer to do it without OO.
Regards
Sathar

Loop at the table used for ALV data where <checkbox-field> = 'X'.
Best,

Capture contents from an editable alv

I'm trying to capture fields from an editable alv. I have an update button in the application toolbar. So when i press this button, whatever changes I have done on the screen, the internal table should get updated. I'm using the function module REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.
Can anybody help me out??

Yes you can,
If you have access to the element in the context that is bound to the row in the ALV then you can connect the message. Marking a * is not possible by default with the WD message manager and you willl need to do it manually. Use the element method of the message manager API for this purpose.

What are the settings for capturing video from Canon HV20

Hi All,
I want to capture video from Canon HV20 with Premiere Elements 11. What kind of settings should I use to capture the video with full information?
Here is what I did:
1) According the manual, I went to Capture settings panel (Edit > Project Settings > Capture) and selected HDV as capture format, because my video is at high definition.
2) In addition, I checked "Capture to Timeline" and "Split Scenes by cotent".
Are these settings enough?
Thanks.

Sounds reasonable, using Add Media/HDV Camcorder, but....
Have you reviewed the Adobe write up on Premiere Elements 11 DV and HDV capture firewire into it.
http://help.adobe.com/fr_FR/premiereelements/using/WS5CDA0F91-60F1-4b79-ABF6-E9E75F498DB2. html#WS2AF26FB5-4C63-4c46-9DB3-7249558F6528
The mention of Get Media instead of Add Media makes me wonder if the video's instructor was demo'ing from Premiere Elements 10, but...
Major factors have always included having Premiere Elements project preset set correctly to correspond to your camera settings...For HDV data capture firewire...
NTSC HDV HDV 1080p30 or PAL HDV HDV 1080p25 depending on if you are targeting a NTSC or PAL area where frame rates are typically a consideration.
I had not done any DV or HDV data capture firewire into Premiere Elements. But, Premiere Elements 11's take over of the project preset setting would encourage me to encourage you to verify your project settings before the capture.
There are probably many more, but the following is online discussion of one Canon HV20 issue
http://forum.videohelp.com/threads/316970-video-capture-problems-HV20-camcorder-is-control led-but-no-video-capture
If you experience difficulty with the HDV capture fireware into Premiere Elements 11, you might consider what some others have done in this regard, that is, use HDVSplit for the capture firewire and then import the split (.m2t) clips "Add Media" into Premiere Elements 11 with the appropriate HDV HDV 1080p (1440 x 1080 HD anamorphic 16:9) project preset.
Please update us on your progress when you get a chance.
Thanks.

Capturing Video from a Camera that only has a USB port

I have read a number of posts from people who have been frustrated because they can not 'capture' video from a video camera that only has a USB port on it. Unfortunately, Premier wants to see a Firewire connection; otherwise, it won't connect to a camera. However, it is still very easy to import your video clips from such a camera into Premier Pro:
1. Turn on your video camera and connect it to your computer via the USB connections.
2. In Premier, go to the Media Browser.
3. In the Media Browser, you will see all the drives on your computer. Amongst those drives will be a drive that was created for your camera. (It will be identified as X: (Removable). Double click on that drive and you will see all your recorded video clips in the column just to the right.
4. Highlight any/all clips that you want to import. Then, simply drag those clips/files up into your Project Organizer (normally, in the upper left corner of the page)
That's it.
You'll probably find this method of importing your clips/files off of your camera easier than if you did have a Firewire and utilized the 'Capture' function.

And a bigger problem will be that that camera (with its card or HDD) will have to be connected, whenever one wishes to edit, and it cannot be overwritten to).
As has been mentioned, the Project file does NOT contain any Assets, with the exception of Titles created in PrPro's Titler. This ARTICLE will give a bit more background on what is in the Project file, plus a bit more.
The same sort of problem can arise if one Imports a VOB from a DVD-Video disc, without Copying the VOB's over to the HDD. First, that DVD must be inserted for each editing session, and things will be horribly slow.
Good luck,
Hunt

Capturing dv from camcorder on powerbook internal drive then moving to exte

I plan on installing FCE HD in an OS 10.4.6 Sandbox partition on my 667MHz Powerbook G4 Ti DVI w/ a 60 GB 7200 rpm HD w/ a 13GB Scratch partition.
Since the PB has a single Firewire port, can I capture video from my camera through that FW port to the internal drive Scratch partition and then transfer that file (or files: I have a bunch of footage) to an external FW drive for further work, again using the single FW port for the initial transfer and then editing, etc.? Can I use USB 2.0 for the transfers after capture?
Any special considerations in doing this? Things I haven’t thought of? :–)

A Sandbox partition is one generated by SuperDuper! to allow an independent, second OS on a drive. Mine has been working fine and allows me to run new software, including OS updates without affecting the Main partition with it's 'master' set of 'original' applications (the Sandbox uses aliases of the apps on Main). If the new OS or app works, then it can be installed on the Main partition with less danger of unexpected problems. By running from the Sandbox, corruption of the Main partition is less likely.
Why is a scratch partition on the internal drive 'not really a good plan'? Is your caveat for real time capture only, as here or with audio capture, where the disk may be given other, higher priority, tasks by the OS, dropping frames? Hadn't thought of that. The Scratch volume appears to work fine for Photoshop, etc. And I would think it would for post-capture editing in FCE.
'You can daisy chain the camera through the FW drive to the computer. This works with most cameras'. Perhaps I am crying before I am bitten. I have seen posts elsewhere (places I can't recover now!) that recommend using 2 separate FW busses (i.e., adding a FW cardbus to my PB) for the camcorder and the capturing disk, saying that chaining the 2 is likely to cause dropped frames. (My camcorder is an original Optura so it may not play anyway. But that is something else again.)
'USB is not supported by Apple for use with video applications'. Does this include USB 2.0? And I have not seen eSATA mentioned anywhere. ???

Capturing Audio from DAT

Hello,
I'm trying to capture audio from a DAT deck (Tascam DA-20) into FCP HD by routing it through my JVC BR-DV600U DV deck (RCA output from DAT, RCA input to DV deck, Firewire into FCP).
The DV deck's input is set to line-in, and the audio is being routed through (audio meters on DV deck mimic those on DAT deck, and I can hear the audio through the headphones jacked into my DV deck).
However, when I try to capture the audio on FCP, I am unsuccessful, prompting the following window from FCP: "Error: Final Cut Pro HD was unable to read the movie file just captured."
Now, I use the same set up I described above to capture footage from my Beta deck into FCP with no problems (route Beta signal through DV deck and firewire it into FCP). This leads me to believe that perhaps the glitch lies within my Capture Presets.
At first, I tried to capture the signal as an Audio-Only DV NTSC 48 Khz/Non-controllable device. After that failed, I tried to create my own capture preset, but am not sure it will make a difference, as the only input choices I am given are DV Audio, Built-In Audio, and None.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Why not capture the audio content outside of FCP, check the sample rate for 48Khz/16-bit, convert if necessary, save as an AIFF file, and then import that resulting sound file into FCP?
Any good audio app, including STP will do captures.
You are probably going to need to do some cleanup on the audio anyway before you use it, so why not just use an audio app to do it beforehand?
Besides, if you have an audio device (PCI card or Firewire device) in your Mac, you can use the S/PDIF port for your connection to the DAT and do a digital transfer when you import.
As I understand the way you are doing it now, you are taking digital content from the DAT, converting it to analog for the connection into your deck, and then re-converting it into digital when you capture it back into FCP.
One big advantage of digital audio (and video) is to avoid generation loss and added noise during transfer if you go D-to-D.
If you don't have an audio card or Firewire A/D audio I/O device with S/PDIF ports in your Mac, then see if you can find a friend who has one and can do the transfer for you. Then he can give you the file on a CD-ROM.
That's what I'd do.
