Combo Edit question

Hello,
I'm fairly new in setting up combo edits. We have an account that we want to use exclusively for one Bus Unit. No other Bus Unit should be able to post to this account. If someone could suggest the easiest way to achieve this, it will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Can't Edit Question

When opening a Cap 2 file that already has slides and
quesions slides-- Selecting a particular question slide the "edit
question" button below the timeline is "flashing" and cannot be
selected. I think I have heard of this before with a
workaround/fix. Please remind me!

Okay, I found the problem. question slide was locked, and for
some reason, this makes the "edit question" area flash on my
system.

Validate Planning form Drop Downs against combo edit tables

I've got a requirement on the last 2 hyperion planning implementations to validate drop down menus on planning data forms against peoplesoft combo edit tables. Is there any possible way to do this without concatenating dimensions?
For example if a user picks fund 5432 and in peoplesoft's combo edit table that fund only has 5 associated projects the project drop down should only show 5 projects out of 1000. The same exact validation would also apply to smartlists replicating dimensions in public sector planning and budgeting.
Thanks in advance!

Don't expect any answers as to what Adobe is planning on doing. The people posting here are 99% users, just like you, not Adobe employees. And those who do know will probably not say so, anyway...
1) That's possible using a script. But you can always add a single space as the default value...
2) Also possible with a script, but very buggy and not recommended.
3) Also possible with a script.
4) That one's easy. Use a blank PDF file where you create those menus, and then you could simply copy them over to your other files from there.
5) There are currently two date pickers available for Acrobat forms: The one by FormRouter and a newer one by Max Wyss, which is not free but is quite good and uses a dialog object instead of form fields.
You can request new features here, by the way:

PRE 7.0 Capture, Conforming & Editing Questions

I have a new Canon Vixia HFS100 (AVCHD) and have just installed Premiere Elements 7.0.   I previously used a Standard Definition mini-tape camcorder and edited the videos with either Windows Movie Maker or Cyberlink Power Director.
Capture Questions: The AVCHD media import option does not require a fire wire / nor does it provide device control. (I LIKE this feature since I purchased a camcorder with flash memory cards so that I could import the media through a card reader instead of having to hook up the camcorder.) I realize now, however that I may also want to import a small segment from a longer scene. Should the AVCHD capture feature have device control? If not, can I also use the HDV camcorder capture function instead?   Does this require any adjustments to my project settings?
Conforming Questions: After I import the .mts files, PRE 7.0 automatically goes through a process that says it is 'conforming' the files.   What does 'conforming' mean? Does this require any adjustments to my project settings?
Editing Questions: The .mts scenes cannot be played back without SEVERE stutter.   Audio is fine, but the scenes video looks like individual stills with 10-15 second delay until the next still picture. Although I plan to upgrade from my 1 GB RAM laptop to a much higher powered laptop within the next month, I am despearate to edit and publish my first set of videos since they are sales videos of horses I am trying to sell. Is there anything I can do to allow me to edit the .mts files with my current 1 GB RAM system? I would be happy to drop to a lower quality video setting just to get this batch of videos edited and produced.
Thanks in advance for your help.

1. Is there anything I can do NOW to get this first set of videos edited / produced on my current laptop?   I would be happy to import as lower quality if necessary.
There are several threads on AVCHD conversion. Unfortunately, I do not recall the conversion utilities recommended. Not shooting AVCHD, I have to admit that I am personally clueless to what programs work, and how well. Others can likely help you there.
2. What configuration wish list can you recommend for either a Dell laptop or desktop?   I will be editing ~40 horse sale videos per month and posting them to YouTube or producing DVDs to mail to prospective buyers.
I have just the ARTICLE for that "wishlist." Harm Millaard is the "Hardware Guru," on the PrPro forum. He gives a lot of great info. Now, it's pretty much geared for the "ultimate" NLE machine, but he does give the reasons, so one can "tone it down" to suit their budget and their needs.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - if I find the threads on AVCHD conversion, I'll share those.

Single Edition questions!

Hi there,
I need an updated, quick and precise answers for these Single Edition questions...!
(1) For what I got until now Single Edition do not allow clients to publish a store like a bookstall of magazines. Is that right?
(2) That said, every app built and sent to App Store is "unique" and has no physical connection with other apps built and sent later. Right?
(3) Even though having Creative Cloud and being able to publish unlimited Folios... There is no way we can do a bookstall??
(4) Even using Html5 resources?
Thankyou all...

1) Correct
2) Correct
3) Correct
4) Correct
A bookstall / kiosk / multi-issue-app is only available for Adobe DPS Pro.

How does Single Edition compare to Professional and Enterprise Editions?
Professional Edition is an off-the-shelf solution designed for customers who publish frequently updated content multiple times a year and require the ability to sell single issues or content subscriptions (as supported by individual marketplaces) through app stores including the Apple App store, Amazon Kindle Fire Newsstand, and Android Marketplace.
Enterprise Edition is a custom tailored solution that meets the individual needs of professional magazine and newspaper publishers, large corporations, membership organizations and advertising holding companies. Enterprise Edition is fully extensible and can be integrated with back-end editorial workflow solutions such as K4 and WoodWing, print fulfillment services, and dynamic rich media ad platforms.
Unlike Enterprise and Professional Edition customers, Single Edition customers do NOT have access or the ability to:
Create multi-.folio applications
Update content embedded in an application once it is published
Sell through multiple market places (Apple App store is only supported at this time)
Access foundational analytics powered by SiteCatalyst
Extend and integrate with other back end services/platforms

Why do I see things set differently in Advanced Actions (F9) than in each slide's Edit Question settings?

After spending 10+ hours of trying to figure out why my first two quiz slides did work, and my next eight didn't, I found the answer as an offhand, btw, comment. The expected action was On failure, Jump to Slide x, which would jump back to the beginning of that content "section." (Quiz slides (two per section) are interspersed with sections of content slides). I finally ran across the advice to "save yourself time" by using F9 to see Advanced Interactions (which is, what, a dialog? a view?). Turns out this was not just a time-saver but the ONLY way (that I've found yet) to see and fix my problem. In Advanced Interactions, I could immediately see that the first two slides were set as I thought, (Jump to Slide upon failure), but the rest were set to Continue upon failure. This, EVEN THOUGH on every question slide, in Edit view/mode on the Edit Question > Options tab, it was set for Jump to Slide upon failure. Why did it appear that way in Edit Question > Options, but not in Advanced Interactions? I set them all correctly in the Advanced Interactions and now the jumping is working correctly (Now I have problems with questions not being reset, but I think I have seen the answers for that in my 10+ hours of reading forums and blogs.)

IMovie HD (6.0.3) - Export Quality and Editing Question

Hi guys, i wanted to ask two questions. The first is that i wanted to export videos to upload onto YouTube and the best format for this seems to be the CD-ROM format that is available on the version i have, the only thing is my videos still appear low quality and pixellated even though i am editing good quality videos......i was wondering if i was doing anything wrong/or can do something better?
Also, when i am editing, can i place logos or maybe pictures onto the video e.g. with TV channels they have a logo at the corner of the screen. I also wanted to black out text on screen but i don't seem to be able to do that.
Thanks a lot.

QuickTime has never supported anything more than "playback" of MPEG-1 formats and conversions to QuickTime formats will never include audio.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPEG-1 a "format" created a long time ago.
iMovie 7 can import and convert most MPEG-2 formats (DVD and HD media) and include audio. It also uses QuickTime for the work.
MPEG Streamclip does allow "batch" conversions. Do them while you sleep.

Ridiculously simple audio editing question for Garage Band

Ok, so this is really a fundamental
question. It concerns editing technique.
In analog mixing, the editor put
the sounds to be saved in the right
places on each of several tracks --
narration, sound effects, lip sync,
music, etc. The tracks were then
all locked together and the mixer
adjusted the volumes to either save
or reject audio information.
A blank master received the information
and that was your final product,
in sync, sprocket by sprocket, with
the video.
My question, then, is, how do you
do it in digital multitrack such as
Garage Band? Are you aiming to have
4 or 5 tracks all level controlled
or do you simple erase unwanted
sound, or what exactly do you do,
in post production? If you are going
to do a voice over, then you have to
do a mix at some point, not just a
cut and paste. What's the philosophy,
if you don't mind my asking?
Thanks,
Ed

Wow... you gave me flashbacks to a movie soundtrack I scored, with separate reels of tape all synced up and whirling away for final mixdown!
To answer your question as best I can in a paragraph or two, digital mixing is unlimited compared to analog. Whereas tape has a physical limit, you can always add another digital track (there are limitations to digital, but they are becoming harder to reach as systems become increasingly powerful). So no need to erase. Editing is also a breeze. Digital tracks are endlessly malleable, with virtually every parameter available for automation.
Sometimes you might mix down to stems or mix everything down to a stereo master (or alternative mixes) for post production. Similarly, in post, they can deal with huge numbers of digital tracks from different sources.
In terms of a professional workflow, Logic is the more typical choice over Garageband, and includes a number of features designed for scoring to picture: variable sample rates, frame rates, etc.
Gain staging in digital recording is different than in analog, and it requires a different approach to achieve excellent sounding results. But the digital workflow is so much more flexible, forgiving, and economical, that it has been the death-knell for the analog workflow. Infinite bussing, routing, mixing, comping, storing, stemming... infinite possibilities, really!

Edit Question Format

I repositioned the content of a Likert Scale Question to
support our template. Several wierd (Captivate 2.0) things happen.
First I centered the page numbering in a bar, when I preview,
the page numbering is not centered, in fact it is higher on the
screen. I played around with the positioning until it displayed
correctly but when I am on the edit screen it is way off.
Secondly, I moved the question and the rating scale and
buttons to the center of the screen with a highlight box behind
them. It appears that the buttons are assigned to two groups for
moving. They sometimes are attached to the scale descriptions
(agree, disagree, etc.) and sometimes they are attached to the
question.
Anyway, once they moved with the rating scale descriptors,
when previewed the objects were all over the screen, and not
located where they were in edit mode.
Another thing I noticed was when I first selected the objects
and started nudging them with the down arrow key, they immediately
left justified to the left edge of the screen, I could not nudge to
the right. I had to drag them. I believe this is where they became
disconnected from the actual screen grid and started previewing
differently. That is edit and preview were different.
I searched the forums and found nothing like this. I hope a
service pack for Captivate appears soon. Captivate 1.0 was buggy,
but Captivate 2.0 has many undocumented features that really
detract from accomplishing the tasks at hand. Rapid authoring is
really slowing down when you have to deal with all of the issues. I
also noticed that the number of issues appearing on the forum
appear to be increasing.
Enough venting. Has anyone experienced this issue and know
what secret part of the screen I am supposed to touch to get
Preview and Edit screens to agree?

Hi Everett
After reading your post, it occurs to me that your Editor
area may simply be showing scroll bars. In this case, you are only
seeing a portion of it. You may correct this by selecting "Best
Fit" from the Stage Toolbar. Actually, after having re-read the
post, I see where almost all your issues could result from that.
As for the nudging bit, if you click the View menu (when
displaying the editor) is
Snap to grid enabled? (is there a check mark next to it). If
so, turn off grid snapping.
Cheers... Rick

Load Balancing / CF Edition Question

Hi,
I know very little about load-balancing, so please forgive
the beginner question.
If I don't plan on using ColdFusion's ClusterCATS load
balancing software
solution for multiple web servers, but instead am going to
use a hardware
load balancing solution instead, can I get away with
purchasing the ColdFusion
Standard Edition for each server(?) or would I have to
purchase the ColdFusion
Enterprise Edition for each server to make things work?
Multiple purchases of Enterprise costs so much, I just want
to save money if possible.
Thanks in advance,
Joe

Yes. You will have to configure your load balancer to use
sticky
sessions if you want to use session variables and you will
not have some
of the scalability features of CF Enterprise, but it will
work.
I don't see any requirements to buy Enterprise edition
licenses in the
EULA, but check that for yourself:

Premiere Elements 7 Basic Editing Question for DV

Hello all,
I have PE7, a Q6600 quad-core, and Windows 7 64bit.
I have captured about 6 hours of Standard Definition 16:9 DV footage from my church's grand opening ceremony. Video was captured from an old Pana PV-GS320.
The church wants a dynamic video to be produced from the captured footage (60 minutes at the most in length). I plan on doing many different effects including semi-transparent video layering, picture in picture, inserting photographs, and inputing audio clips from the ceremony. The final product will be a standard definition DVD disc.
I've done some research regarding how DV is interlaced and output for DVD should be interlaced (unless I'm wrong in that conclusion, let me know). I also know that doing heavy editing with interlaced footage (slowing/speeding footage, zooming in and out, rotating, multiple layering, etc) may create flickering and "mice teeth" in the video. I've also searched through these forums and keep on running into HD questions/solutions... I guess I'm asking an old question that was probably answered long ago when DV tape ruled the world.
QUESTION 1:
So, if I may ask, in order to get the best results, should I prepare my raw footage in PE7 before editing it by (1) by deinterlacing it? (2) exporting it as progressive? (3) both? (4) leave it alone and begin editing away? or (5) am I missing another option?
QUESTION 2:
Also, what resolution would be best to import the photos into the project?
I know the best way to work with any video is to make as little changes as possible to it, but this is unavoidable in my case. No one wants to sit through 6 hours of video...
Thankyou very much for reading my questions and I really hope you have some time to answer it! Thanks for any information! I really appreciate it!

Relax, rockwell. You're making it all unnecessarily complicated.
If you've captured your video as DV-AVIs over a FireWire connection, you won't get "mice teeth" in your final product. The program is designed to work with interlaced video and create interlaced DVDs. The results should look virtually as good as the original footage! You can't damage video with "excess editing."
Just trust the program to take care of the technical issues. You can concentrate on the editing.
As for any photos you want to add, you'll get the best results if they're no larger than 1000x750 pixels in size, per the FAQs to the right of the forum.

Special effects editing question for iMovie '09

Hi,
I understand that iMovie '09 doesn't support many (any?) add-on software packages for special effects editing.
Meanwhile, I'm editing some sports clips in iMovie '09,, in which I'd love to have a "spotlight" on a player, (where the other action/background is dimmed), or use an arrow to point at a player---that sort of thing.
Is there a way to---say, do this edit in iMovie HD, or iMovie '06, with special software, then re-import it back into my iMovie '09 project?

Ziatron,
Thanks for your reply. When you say you use iMovie '06 with iDVD 09 all the time---can you explain further? I guess I go back to my original question---Would iMovie '09 "accept" the edit done in iMovie HD or iMovie '06?
I do like the organizing layout (boxes with titles) much better on the previous versions, as well as some more detailed audio editing---but I'm grudgingly moved on to iMovie 09, and have already loaded a lot of my material (and keyworded them) into iMovie 09. I think I'm going to stick it out with this project.
Thanks in advance for any further advice you can share.

OT-Editing question . . .

I apologize for being off topic, but after a couple of hours of googling I didn't know where else to go. Does anyone know of a consumer level "Mini DV Player" so that I don't have to use my camera to playback tape when editing or viewing. Thanks in advance.
Shoes 9

Shoes 9,
I know JVC makes a miniDV / VHS combo deck.
http://www.jvc.com/product.jsp?modelId=MODL026939&pathId=49&page=1
Most dedicated decks are going to be professional grade units as there's not much market for consumer grade versions.
You can find some used professional decks on eBay.
In any case, I think they're all going to be far more expensive than a camera.

Adobe Creative Suite 5 Design Premium Student & Teacher Edition questions

Hey,
I was looking to purchase the Adobe CS5 Design Premium Student and Teacher edition and had a few questions.
Please keep in mind I live on Australia.
1. Will I be able to make money off websites I create (I am not sure of this as it is a student and teacher edition)
2. If I were to puchase it off of Amazon.com how would that all work?
3. Can you install it on multiple computers?
Thank you!
Also, why can't you just e-mail Adobe with a question?

Hi,
first of all look at your "Help" on top, where you could go to this:
http://www.adobe.com/ap/support/contact/ ("Need a different country or region?" = Asia Pacific - English) or
http://www.adobe.com/support/service/
Also what concerns the service from ADOBE support I personally made very good experiences with the telephone hotline.

To 1.: Did you read Adobe's terms and conditions? If so, the question should answer itself. Student version prohibit commercial work, I could read it in a former thread, an academic version would allow it and come with full upgrade rights. (You could use search function here on top.)
To 2.: Since I have no experience, I would even here use Adobe's or Google's search function.
To 3. Yes.
