Changes to sequence and corruption

Is it better to avoid cutting and copying/pasting in the timeline? I've heard it can introduce corruption (once I had some -- not sure why). Makes me think this thing is very sensitive. Yet, as a newbie, I make a lot of changes!

Well, we were having a problem and a woman from the Apple store, who knows FCP&FCE, said that it would likely go away if we started a new sequence. We did and it did. She said that this had happened to her occasionally.

Regarding PDFs, How do you eliminate pages, change page sequence, and add a page?

Sometimes, I need a multiple page document modified by either eliminating pages, change page sequence, or add a page to it. Does the Adobe Reader XI have an app that can be purchased to do all this?

Adobe Acrobat is the program you'd use to modify a PDF. Reader is not able to make the changes you mentioned. Acrobat Standard is able to do all of the things you mentioned, as is Acrobat Pro.

Change the sequence settings from NTSC 30 fps to PAL 25 fps, is possible?

Hello,
I have a finished project that was make in a sequence with the format NTSC 30 fps. Now I need to change that sequence and the project to PAL 25 fps. I have changed the settings of the source secuence to PAL 25, but in the resulting sequence the audio and the videos are different in time and speed.
With the videos I have make a match frame to find the source, but with the audios I have problems. ¿There is a automatic proccess in final cut pro 7.0 that could make a translation of a finished sequence that was developed in NTSC 30 ftp to a PAL 25 fps?
Can you give me a tip or something to make the trasnlation ?
Thanks in advance

Sorry...but it isn't as simple as changing a project frame rate. FCP is NOT good at mixing frame rates. And when you put NTSC footage (29.97fps), into a PAL timeline (25fps), that is exactly what you are doing. No, this won't work. No magic solution for this (although Avid MC5 does this nicely).
You are going to have to export a QT file, and let Compressor tackle this job (and it will take a WHILE, and you will have to run a few tests to see if your settings work to your satisfaction), or take that QT file to a post house with a Terranex or Snell/Wilcox to do the conversion ($$$$)...or output to tape AND THEN do the Terranex thing.
No easy button here.

Sequence and clip name keeps changing... Why ? Solutions ?

The sequence and clip name on a particular project keeps changing. It usually takes the name of of an audio file. Deleting the preferences, opening the timeline in a new project, making it offline and reconnecting it again, et. all doesn't help ? What is causing this ? HELP
Mac Pro Quad core
Memory 8GB
Storage - XSAN
FCP version 7.0
OS X version 10.5.8
Quicktime 10 & 7.66 both installed
Anyone has a solution for this....
Jp

I made the sequence off line and save it as a new project. Then deleted the preferences and opened the project..... reconnected the media. Most of the clips showed the correct clip name and the sequence name also didn't change. But a few audio tracks still had the old problem....
Thanks for the reply.... haven't updated yet..

Changing "2 Outputs" to "1 Stereo" To Match Sequence and Clips

I'm using Final Cut Pro 6.0.4 on a Macbook Pro. I initially posted this question on the wrong forum I think (Final Cut Pro X) but can't figure out how to just move it here, so I am posting it here.
My footage is:
1440x810, 29.7 fps, MPEG-4 Video Compressor, 44.1 KHz aud rate, 32-bit floating point.
The audio is set at "1 stereo."
My sequence is:
1440x810, 29.7 fps, MPEG-4 Video Compressor, 44.1 KHz aud rate, 32-bit floating point.
The audio is set at "2 outputs."
When I drop footage into the sequence, it says the audio needs to be rendered. The only thing that doesn't match between the sequence and the footage is the Audio Outputs. I did select to have my sequence match clip settings when prompted. I've looked through sequence settings and nothing changed it, and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to change "2 outputs" to "1 stereo" (or vice versa) without having to re-compress all the footage and then re-import it.
I also tried the "Match Audio Outputs" command, but nothing changed when I did that either.
I have this problem every time I edit and usually just resort to re-compressing the footage, but that can take days and I'd like to avoid that.
Am I missing something?

I didn't record the footage, I'm just the editor. I can ask Julie & Brandy (the people in the video) what camera they used if that's important, though? They sent it to me as mov files on a disc.
These are the clip properties (is this visible? it looks so small in my window but the screenshot i took is way larger, hopefully it will expand)
These are the sequence properties:
Also, even though it says 16-bit there, it says 32-bit on the browser:

Project renames sequence and all clips in the sequence when a clip is added

My project is renaming my sequences and the clips in those sequences whenever I add a clip. For example, I have a sequence called "dance section 2", which contains 20 some-odd clips with various names. When I add a clip named "drop from above", the name of the sequence is changed to "drop from above", and the name of every other clip in the sequence is also changed to "drop from above" (video, audio, stills, everything). When I add a clip named "spins", all the names are changed to "spins".
The name of the sequence is changed in both the timeline and the browser, but the names of the other clips are changed only in the timeline. In the browser, they keep their old names. The exception to this is the last clip added before the name changer. For example, if I add "drop from above" to the sequence, and then add "spins", the clip named "drop from above" is renamed "spins" in the browser as well as in the timeline, but the other clips are renamed only in the timeline.
The clips in the sequence also keep their original content - so the sequence looks the same as it did before, but all the names of the clips are changed.
This is only happening in one project. All of my other projects are working fine.
I've tried restarting and deleting preferences. I've also looked at the autosave vault for the project. The backup projects saved after a certain time all behave the same way, and the projects before that time all behave normally. I can't imagine what would have caused this, though, since I've been working on this project all day and nothing's happened to my computer or hard drive or anything.
Also, there are no freeze frames at the beginnings of my sequences (I read another thread with a somewhat similar issue and getting rid of freeze frames seemed to help that person).
I'm in FCP 7.0 on a Macbook Pro.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Welcome to the discussions...
I've had this happen. My guess is that it's related to round-tripping to/from Color, but I can't be sure. IMHO, the sequence is corrupted. I just dealt with it for a while, then rebuilt it by making changes from an earlier version.
Sorry I don't have a better solution, but at least you know you're not alone.

Greetings, I am working in Final Cut Pro 7. In the timeline some clips show as offline. I tried going to sequence and reconnecting to media but it does not work. I can still see the video in the timeline and work with it. It just has the red box.

If the clips are not actually missing, you could try to refresh the timeline by using cmd-0 and then going to the timeline options tab. Then select name only where it says "thumbnail display". Press ok to accept the change, then repeat the process to add thumbnails back to your timeline.

What is the correct way to use Version Information from the sequence and from the deployment tool

I seem to be missing something in how the various version numbers are supposed to be used. My end goal is to log and possibly display in the UI the version of the sequence and which installer version was used to inspect a UUT. I have gotten most of the way there using:
How Can I Programmatically Query the Sequence File Version of My TestStand Sequence?
and logging this into the report with a function which contains:
Parameters.UUT.AdditionalData.SetValString("Test Version",1,RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Version),
Parameters.UUT.AdditionalData.SetFlags("",0,PropFlags_IncludeInReport)
The "Deployment Version" in the TestStand Deployment Utility auto incrementing the 3rd position of a version number while the sequence auto increment is working on the 4th.
My first question is are these 2 version numbers in anyway supposed to be related to each other? As it seems to me you would want those 2 reversed, I can make several installers based on sequence version X, making changes to what supporting files are also installed.
If they are not related as I suspect that they are not. How do I programatically grabed the installer version and also log that into the result report?
is there an option to perform a custom deployment build step to log the deployment version before it builds and then reference that log at runtime of the test?

Hi,
The sequence file version and deployment versions are not related.
You can build the installer with whatever version you want using the command line :

How Do I Change My Sequence Settings to Match My Clip

Hello -
I shot some footage in SD with a frame size of 16:9. When I dragged a clip into my first sequence, FCP asked 'if I wanted the Sequence to assume the properties of the clip?' I hit 'yes' which changed the sequence to match my clip. However, when I created a new sequence(in the same project) and dragged a clip into it, FCP did not prompt me with the option to change the sequence settings. Now, I have a 4:3 sequence with a letterbox 16:9 clip. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks for your help!

menu: Sequence Settings (or Commnd 0).
Then check (√) the Anamorphic checkbox.
OK
Then select everything in the timeline. (Command A)
Command Option V (Remove attributes). Make sure Distort is checked (√)

Change the sequence of planned delivery costs in MIRO

Dear Experts,
In import an import PO the various CVD & ACD conditions are maintained in the PO .
To enter the bill of entry , MIRO is used where the invoice is booked for planned delivery costs for the PO .
In MIRO , this planned delivery costs appear by default in certain sequence. I want to change this sequence .
eg by default the system shows :
Sec Ed cess on CVD
ACD
BCD
Ed cess on BCD
CVD
Ed cess on CVD
Sec Ed Cess on BCD
I want to change the seq of appearance in MIRO.
How is it possible
Pls guide
Regards
Anis

Dear Anis bazmi
You will get the conditions as you desire one below another in PO or MIRO if you have defined them exctly the same way in your calculation schema steps, other wise there is no way in getting the way you want and it can not be changed either in PO stage or in MIRO also.
Just check, when you are processing MIRO, please select Planned delivery Costs form the menu below instead of the combination of both.
Regards

Changing screen sequence in sales order header

Hi Folks
we have a requirement to change the sequence of the screens which appear in sales order header and we need to add an additional custom screen.
Request you all to suggest how we can achieve this functionality.

Hi,
REquest you to take the help of ABAPer and do the modification in standard Program
But instead of creating a new custom tab you can use additional data B tab to cater your requirement. Its given blank in standard so that we can modify as per our requirement .So the same will be reflected in all screen no. 4013

InDesign CS3 Print Engine Error and Corrupt Print Dialog Box

We are a networked office working on various files off of a server. After setting print settings in the print dialog box and saving the file, when another user (or the same user) reopens the file, the Print dialog box settings are changed in a bizarre, corrupted way, and the file will not print. We get the following error:
Printing Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem.
and printing fails to the HP LaserJet 4240 PS (64 MB RAM).
We all use Windows XP, SP2, Dualcore 3 GHz Pentium Processors with 3.5 GB of RAM.
Specifically, the Print dialog box shows these strange settings:
Scaling gets set to 0%, copies are set to 0
Spreads are turned on
Print Visible Guides and Baseline Grids are turned on
All printers marks are turned on, offset is set to 0
Use document bleed settings is turned on, include slug area is selected
Output Text as Black is turned on
Omit for OPI has all 3 file formats selected (EPS, PDF, and Bitmap)
Usually resetting the Print dialog box and saving the file allows us to print but then the next time we open the file, the Print settings are corrupted again.
Any solutions? Or any fixes in the works?
Thanks for your help!

We currently only notice this problem with files associated with one project. The project is a book of many chapters, each with it's own file. The problem affects multiple files and multiple users (4 out of 5 people working on these files have experienced the problem). It may very well be a problem caused by a different user opening the files after another has closed them.
We have a LAN with multiple Dell servers running Windows 2003 and many end-user PCs using Windows XP. All printers are on the network but printing occurs locally, meaning that data sent to a printer does not go through a server.
We could test the problem by copying a chapter to one person's computer and making them the only person who works on it for a day or two. It's just hard to do so because different people have different duties to perform on all files.
Thanks for your help!

FCP 7 crashes when choosing "yes" to changing of sequence settings for Flip

I've been doing quite a bit of work with the Flip HD video camera recently. I grew tired of rendering everything, so decided it was time to finally upgrade from FCP 5 to FCP 7.
However, FCP 7 crashes every time I try to lay down video files from the Flip camera onto a timeline.
Upon laying the files down onto the timeline, I am prompted with the message asking if I want to change the sequence settings to match the video. I click yes and immediately get "General Error" and FCP crashes.
I tried trashing the preferences. same result.
I tried updating FCP 7 to FCP 7.0.1. same result.
I even tried updating fixes for iMovie as if that would have anything to do with it. same result.
I'm currently rendering it out the same way I had been in FCP 5.
Any advice or ideas?

AVC is h.264, which is not a work-able editing format, it's a delivery format (and a consumer video camera acquisition format suitable for holiday videos going straight to YouTube), that's why you've been having to render all the time in FCP 5.
Now you're in FCP 7 and it's asking if you want to change the sequence settings to match the video, but there is no sequence setting to match AVC/h.264 so it's freaking your computer out. Still, it shouldn't crash, but that's the problem i believe.
You need to correct your work-flow by transcoding your media into something usable like ProRes, or you can choose not to change your sequence settings, and render the timeline as you have been doing in the past.
