Changing a clip name in the Finder

What does happen if in the Finder I change the file name of a clip I have already mounted on the timeline of a project?

The clip goes offline in the application, both in the timeline and in the event browser.

Changing file names in the Finder

Hi,
Is there a way to change the names of video files in the Finder then relink them in FCPX? I have some files that I imported from my camera. Unfortunately, the camera's date was incorrect. I'd like to change the file names via the Finder to the correct dates, then relink them to the associated projects in Final Cut Pro X. However, this doesn't seem possible: when I relaunch FCPX, the "new" files appear alongside the old files in the event library and there doesn't seem to be a way to relink them.
thanks,
fh

You can't relink files in FCPX. Best way to rename clips is within FCPX itself.

Globally removing an illegal symbol from file names in the finder

I recently discovered that my method of dating files makes use of the illegal symbol, '/'. Now I have thousands of files with that symbol in them and am having trouble transferring them to my new hard drive. Is there a was that I can globally remove that symbol from the file names via the finder?

Hi
download filelist.dmg
Double click on it to open it. Drag the Filelist app' into your Application Folder, a good a place as anywhere to keep it.
Open the FileList application, it should show as a window.
Drag a file or a group of files onto that open window- the left hand side pane.
... and there you can manipulate the prefix and suffix of the files to give them new file names.
Create a file in text edit, type something in it, save is as test.rtf, and then drag it into the FileList app and experiment with changing its name.
When you get the hang of it, do a group of files as a batch.
I tried to do what you wanted to do in your initial post and was successful, so just have a play around with it.

Display metadata instead of clip name on the clips in the timeline and in the source monitor

Is there a way to display metadata instead of clip name on the clips in the timeline and in the source monitor? Clip names are usually set by the camera and are of no use to me. What i would like the clip and the source monitor to display is the name of the shot from the metadata. That's,in my opinion, a very useful info when you're editing a film. If that feature doesn't exist, is there a way to batch rename clips based on metadata?

thanks
is that new or was that always there. Not to sure if I have tried that in the past
anyway it helped and will makes things much faster
one other question maybe you have an answer to that too. it seems both Audio tracks are independ when putting on keyframes is there a way when using keyframes in the time line that it affect both channels of audio for example a1 an a2
once again thanks for your help

Changing short name / user name in the Finder

I just set up a new mac, and inadvertently let it default my admin account short name to
myname1 (based on my .mac ID)
Can I change it to :
Myname
I've had a rummage and saw about the advanced options in the Account preferences, and created :
Myname
as an alias, but even after restarting its showing up as
myname1
in the finder.
Any suggestions?
Cheers.

Hmm. Might it be easier/safer to create a new account and copy everything across?
If you just created the new OS, then you really don't have anything to lose. Change it just for the learning experience and if it does not work, you can reinstall.
Copying everything to a new account won't work.
There is a way to create a new account and transfer the old account files over to the new account, but again, it's not trivial.

Changing a document name opens the file

I was wondering if this was a new issue with Leopard... or just my mouse. In Tiger, if you needed to change the name of a file, or folder on the desktop... or anywhere, you could click, and it would highlight the words to change the name.
Now, if you click the first time, nothing happens, when clicking a second time, it either opens the folder, or launches the application. I don't particularly like this happening, especially when I'm just trying to change the file name.
I am using a MacAlly rfmousejr.

In my opinion, the behaviour in "Panther" and earlier was even better - you could click once on the file name, and shift the mouse pointer outside of the name area, and it would highlight. Unfortunately, Tiger made (more or less) two clicks necessary throughout the "Finder", probably to make the behaviour more consistent with "Column" view. Normally, I am in favour of GUI consistency, but unfortunately they settled on the worse convention, applying it to an area where the interaction is different enought that imposing consistency actually made things worse.
In Leopard, the issue doesn't appear entirely to be one of timing. Although it may be awkward, try selecting the icon first, then clicking the file name (I just tested this with the "double-click" setting set to the slowest). This almost never results in the file opening, whereas clicking twice (with the same delay between clicks) on the name did. Similarly, if the icon is selected by alternative means (marqueé selection, by typing the first few letters of the name, or using arrow keys), then clicking once on the item's name also activates the text field.

How to change a field name in the client web interface

Hello,
I need to change name of the field in the Shopping cart Basic data (field Location). Where could I do this?
Thank you in advance,
Olga

Hi
<u>Which SRM Version are you using ?</u>
Incase you do not want the storage location fiels displayed in the item details then you can modify the template saplbbp_sc_ui_its_300.html to hide the field.
By creating screen variant in transcation SHD0 and implementing that screen variant in BBP_screenvariant BADI you can hide the fields.
Let me know the transaction and fields what you want to hide I can look at it.

Relinking where the filename has changed but tape name is the same, can it be done?

Should it be possible to relink to media based on matching tape name?
So i have X files in a folder, each has a unique tape name. Then some of those files are regenerated with different filenames but the tape name remains the same. I was naively assuming that the relocate dialogue, if you had tape name checked and nothing else would then match the files name for name and find them automatically.
That doesn't seem to be the case.
So am i wrong? Or is there a way of relinking several hundred files where the filename may change - how can i get premiere to relink to a file other than exact filename match?
thanks
Paul

Hi Fuzzy!
I did look at that but it's a large extra step that wouldn't be ideal. The idea is that i need a timeline just changing as files are updated in the background, i don't want to have an extra workflow step in there. I can probably arrange it so the filenames don't change (not ideal) but the key is that the linking dialogue appears to suggest that i should be able to relink using tape name but it just doesn't appear to work.
If i relink one of the files then i'd expect PPro to go off any find any other missing ones based on the tape name, but nope...
thanks anyway
cheers

Changing (master) clip name in browser window

Hello,
Did a search for this but found very little and that which was found confused me. Does anyone know whether it's safe to rename clips in the browser window within FCP? And whether it maters if they are master clips or not?
I just got back from Iceland (went specificly to film) and captured each whole tape with "capture clip" letting FCP automaticly cut it up and name 1, 2, 3 etc. I wouldnt usually do this but I had to get it onto the computer quickly as I was so scared the tapes might break or get lost and the whole trip could be wasted.
Thanks in advance for any help.
PS running: iBook G4 1.2GHz, FCP 5, OSX 10.4.5, Pal HDV (HDV HC1) And I know it's not really fast enough for HDV but thats beside the point

You'll be fine. Just make sure you rename the clips within FCP's browser window, NOT the Finder. (Unless you want to re-import the clips and reconnect all the media) Cheers.

Multiclip changes source clip name

Hi everyone. Strange problem here.
We've been using Multiclip for a while, just upgraded all machines to FCP 7, and now we have an issue where switching angles in the Viewer will spontaneously change the source clip name.
For example :
- I've got 2 clips, Cam A and Cam B
- Make a multiclip out of them
- Open in Viewer
- Switch angles from Cam A to Cam B in viewer
- In the Browser, the clip Cam A is renamed as Cam B, NOT the multiclip
Using the Browser's rename function to match clip to file name erroneously uses the last active angle on the faulty clip, instead of it's proper name.
Tried on 2 different MacPros, same problem.
Any clues?
Thanks!

Ok, I set my sequence settings to 640x480 and square pixel aspect ratio, but it says the vid rate is 30fps instead of 29.97. How do I change that?

Changing DNS zone names after the fact

Over 3 months ago we started setting up our server network. After discussions with administration it was determined (at the time) that we would use and register a domain name with a .net extension. So we set up a primary server with this extension and had it registered with our ISP. We subsequently added 7 other servers to the mix and as they were installed they grabbed their names from the DNS zone we had setup *.net in our DNS zone in our primary nameserver system. It was all well the tests worked we had it all going and are moving our 130 machines (including about 60 users) over next few months (and have moved about 10 users and other machines so far.
My question is this. Back in beginning a *.org was the other option but we had problems with it and our ISP (could have been some error on our part) so we went with *.net for our domain and got that registered. Now all of a sudden as our management is wanting to move the organizational website (we are not doing that) to another service that service is tying to convince them we should have not used *.net but *.org.
The person in charge of us is strongly asking if we can go back and setup with *.org but as I understand it I cannot go in and delete my *.net DNS zone and then rename all the servers with a .org extension but as we understand it from lynda.com and other sources it appears that we probably would have to go back and reset all the machines back up by reinstalling them after I changed the first primary nameserver. And then register the new name and wait for it to propagate?
Are we wrong? Can we just go in and turn off the DNS in server admin and then change the zone name(s) to *.org and the host names of each server from *.net to *.org and restart DNS and find all to be well? As much as we can tell it appears that we would have to restart from scratch as all the documents and lynda.com imply we should have had our final domain name set and registered before we started to install and setup the primary and secondary servers?
I see some examples where it is said to make such changes something needs to be done with ipconfig and not the GUI in server admin. But again I am not sure that this will work with our primary nameserver and the 7 servers under it?
Any feedback or help about this would be appreciated. It is our preference to stay with *.net and not have to do major work as we are starting user and network migration to the new servers and hate to have have such a major setback just because one person and the web design service they want to use does not like *.net. to us it appears the horse is long out of the barn and when this was approved last fall we have gone to far to easily go back. But if it is easier to go back than we think then we are willing to try to change.
Thanks

first, what are these servers doing? are they all web servers, OD masters, simple file servers? depending on their roles, changing their names can be more or less of a problem.
The first server we set (the name server) does incoming mail, is the DNS server for local net and such. Then there is the outgoing mail server (one of 7) a web server (another of 7) and then the rest are mostly file servers for our setup.
second, work out that political stuff before making any changes. if everything's working fine as is, make a strong case for leaving things alone. if possible, estimate support costs for changing everything and troubleshooting, then see if management can justify it.
Sort of my feeling. We thought we had it all worked out but then they decided to abandon the old web site (managed by someone else but associated with the old mail/network somewhat) and have a new Web design company do it and this company complained about us having chose a .net for what reason I do not know so the administrator somehow was persuaded and had no idea of the can of worms she had opened up by changing her mind. If it is too much of a hassle and it appears so in terms of delays to move rest of organization over then I hope we can convince them.
are all these servers public facing or behind a firewall?
They are behind a firewall on a high speed cable modem ISP service (firewall is local ASTARO machine).
also, why not setup another dns zone for .org and point to the same hosts? that would allow you to use either .net or .org, for the most part. again, that depends on what these servers are doing.
We suggested that but the administrator did not like having two names we have a lot of users (volunteers and such) who are not really too savvy (the nature of free and partime help I guess) and she feels they will be confused by two extensions for network, mail and web. It sure does not bother me (I have about 8 email addresses for example now .
post more details without the political background and what the end result should be, and we'll be able to add more here.
Ok basically we want to know with the following:
1) main nameserver (the first server that provides the DNS zone for local *.net and serves the incoming mail)
2) A second outgoing SMTP server to split load and do outgoing work...
3) A third webserver doing all the web services (blog, wicki, and such)
4) 4 file servers that are going to provide a local file server for our 4 main departments
5) A final test server we are testing other things with-- so total of 8 servers.
6) 8 Users out of 60 now on the network with their personal desktops or laptop machines, and a few printers and other devices all on new network.
There are a total of 130 macs and pc's in our organization that will all eventually be on this new network with the above.
Basically we are wondering if the main (first) DNS and incoming mail sever, and the 7 other (web, SMTP out, and file server machines) will have to be set back up from reinstall if we are to make the change from the *.net zone we have now to a *.org one?
Any other details that would be of help?
Thanks

Change error tag names of the Response xml of a vanilla Inbound Webservice

Hi,
You should be able to edit the generated wsdl as you suggested, changing the
"return" to something else. Then save the wsdl to a file, say
"filename.wsdl", and then at the top of your jws add the following:
* @jws:wsdl file="filename.wsdl"
This will force the jws to use the wsdl you specify and you won't have to
edit any maps. Of course, as your jws changes, you will need to regenerate
the wsdl and change the "return" to something else.

I have created a webservice in workshop that has some methods what returnstring-data.
Now I want to create clients with different software-products. Because Igot some
errors with one of these products, I looked into the WSDL and noticed thatthe
name of the response-datatype is 'return' (by default).
You can see this here:
- <s:element name="addUserResponse">
- <s:complexType>
- <s:sequence>
<s:element minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" name="return" nillable="true"type="s:string"
/>
This 'return' is interpreted as a keyword in the client-generation tool.If I
change this manually to another word then it works.
When I try to change the 'Return XML' in the 'Edit Maps and Interface'Dialog,
than the WSDL looks like this:
- <s:element name="addUserResponse">
- <s:complexType mixed="true">
- <s:sequence>
<s:any minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded" />
Now the name- and type-definitions are completely missing.
The question is now: how to change the name of the response-datatype from'return'
to another (not-keyword-) name?
I think this is important because I don't know what software a customeruses to
generate a client and I can not expect that he manually edits myWSDL-file.
