Copy and edit movie

I am copying old VHS home movies to DVD+R and DVD+RW formats. I want to edit these movies. Can I copy these to my computer and edit them in iDVD or iMovie?

Not with iDVD as it's only for burning video DVDs that can be viewed on TVs with a DVD player. You can to use iMovie or other video editing application to edit the movie files before adding them to iDVD.
When you're done with the editing in iMovie use the Share ➙ Media Browser option instead of the Share ➙ iDVD option becauze the Media Browser method gives you a higher quality image in the final produce. Also consider using this recommended workflow:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image and launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding was good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.

Importing and Editing .MOV Files

Hello,
I would like to know if After Effects can edit .MOV files or should these type files be converted to another format? I imported a .mov file to After Effects and although I can view the movie in the composition window. I don't see any other information that would allow me to edit the video. No layer info.
Can someone fill me in on why this is happining?
Thank You
Tontyp

Hi,
Thank you all for your advice and help. I only wanted to change some text in a video template that was created with the Adobe After Effects program. As you said it is proving to be more trouble than it is worth. I will go back to the drawing board so to speak and start from the begining Mean while I will just create a new video with another software. I do thank you very much for your input as it may have saved me hours of wasted time.
Thanks Again,

How to copy and edit pages once they have been scanned to my desktop

I have a many page report I want to copy and send as one or more PDF files. I scan the page, remove it to my desktop and either slide it onto a blank pages or I Photo, where I make the print darker, etc. and export to my desktop..as file, jpeg document....tried them all.
Once on the desktop, it won't allow me to add or subtract any information...I can't even select all and copy it. I can't remember how I use to do this so I would come up with a copy that I could edit and also add several other pages to the bottom of the first page, to send as a pdf, rather than have to send each page separately.'
Is there a way to do this?

If you are at the point where you have several .jpg images that you want to turn into a single PDF document,
Open each .jpg image in Preview and Save As a PDF file.
Do that for all of them.
In Preview click on the sidebar and one image will be there.
From Finder, where reside your recently converted .jpgs to single PDFs drag one to be underneath the existing one and so forth untill all single PDFs are showing in the sidebar.
Get the focus back on Preview by clicking on it, and then Save As and that will produce one multi-page PDF document.
Note, The last image you converted will be the first image in the new PDF, so you might like to close Preview and then reopen it with the first image, just to make sure you get them in the desired order.

LSMW - Problem with copied and edited Project - missing new field

I have copied an LSMW project to a new Project to load a Journal Entry to FI - Transaction Code FB01. I added a new field VALUT (value date) to both the Maintain Source Fields and Maintain Field Mapping Steps. The data with the new field shows up in Display Read Data, but it does not show up in Display Converted Data. This new field is the last field in the csv file, i added it to the end of the Source fields.
I think perhaps i need to create a new Batch Input Session, because when i run the Start Direct Input Program, one of the messages that comes up refers back to the original project name - not my renamed Project. --> "Session Name OLD PROJECT NAME was opened"
(The steps available on my screen do not include a "Create Batch Input Session" step, as some of the posted answers show)
Thank you for your help.

Hi Sandra, Thank you for your reply. I am not sure what you mean by restart. if you mean go through all the steps- yes, i went through all the steps again. I also exited out of the LSMW screen completely and went back in to my project and redid the read and convert data again, just to be sure, but i am still missing the new field in display converted data.
The only change i made to the Project was to change the name of the Project, subproject, and object and to add a field to the Source Fields and Field Mapping - for field mapping i used the default rule of Transfer(move)and my source and code seems to be correct - in that i followed the example of all the other fields. i also changed the name of the file where my new csv file was located, but i did not change the names of the read and converted data files. Perhaps i need to change something else? It seems to me that it is still using the instructions from the old project to convert the data. Thanks again.

Copying and EDITING a previously burned DVD-R

hi
I have a two hour long home/wedding video that has been burned to a dvd-r. I dont have the original footage. I would like to delete a small clip from the middle of it. I imported it into iMovie ( i created the iMovie project once as DV and then the second time as MPEG-4) I then deleted the 10 second clip and burned it with iDVD. The quality came out extremely poor both times. (Pixels are huge, you can see little squares.) The original DVD-R is great quality and copies made using Disk Utility are the same great quality.
Is there another way i should edit or burn it that wouldn't cause this quality loss?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, Robert,
I think you have the right idea, but you will have to check your camcorder settings. To record from a DVD Player, you need to connect the AV ports on the player...usually those red/white/yellow connectors...to the AV port on the camcorder...usually specific to the camcorder, small halfcircle size.
You need to set your camcorder to the VTR setting, and then use the menu to find something that looks like REC CTRL. When you click on that, you should see the DVD image in the camcorder screen, and have the options of REC PAUSE or REC START. Hit the Pause one until you are ready to play the DVD, then hit the record one. A small dot appears on the camcorder screen indicating recording.
If this does not work, you may have a very recent Sony camcorder. I understand that the most recent ones do not have this option. Which camcorder do you have?
Regarding the copying to iMovie of VOB files.... you cannot import them directly into iMovie. iMovie uses DV format only. You need to convert the VOB files. You can do this with StreamClip.
Have a look at these posts for help doing it that way:

Copy and edit standard smartform...

In tcode VA03, there is a form for printing the header. I want to add additional data to that smartform not by editing the standard form. Instead, I should edit the copy of the standard form.

Then go to transaction smartforms, enter the name of your smartform, and then click on the Copy button on top left.
You need to then also amend your config to call your smartform. Plenty of posts/blogs on this.

Mavericks is trying to copy and not move files?

I have a bunch of folders on a bare bones drive connected via a dock, and I make a new folder and tried to drag all the folders into the new folder on the drive and rather then moving the folders, it wants to copy them? Why is it doing this?
Thanks.

I'm having the same issue of trying to move a large application (7.4 Gigs) and it wants to copy it instead. Is this a security setting? Also everything else I want to move (like from the desktop to the drives top hiearchial level) wants authentication every step of the way. I've been using Macs since the 512 and this is rubbish. Is there a unix fix at least?

Which version shall I buy, if I need just reading, copying and editing texts?

Hello, I would like to ask you about a right version which shall I buy in order to have readable version with possibility of copying but also editing texts?
Is the right version Acrobat XI? Or is there another type? How much does cost the most basic version which also allows to edit texts inside the pdf document?
Thank you.
Barbora

For reading, you only need Reader. The editing (and typically copying) require Acrobat. However, you should download the trial version and try it first. Editing and such in Acrobat is a last resort operation, not an every day activity. Editing is often very difficult to get things right and they is why it should only be used for minor edits. Generally you do not have the features of an editor with word-wrap and such -- it is not really the goal of Acrobat. You can sometimes copy from Reader, but I don't know too much about Reader since this is the Acrobat forum. Acrobat may not meet your expectations and that is why I suggest trying the trial version.

In the "View"-- "Page Source" window: why can't I select a portion of a URL like I used to in previous versions? If I try, the source text behaves as an active hyperlink instead. This makes copying and editing HTML a pain!

In want to copy a portion of a URL from the "View" --> "Page Source" window and paste it in my favorite text editor. This used to be a simple action with my mouse (mark portion with left mouse button, dump copy into editor window with middle mouse button). In Firefox 3.6.9, it is not plain text in the "Page Source" window but active hyperlinks (cursor shape changes) and takes me to the website of that URL, which I don't want. How can I get the original behavior (plain text page source) back?

The code taht you have shown is not the template, it is a document that has been created from a template and renamed with a dwt extension.
If you load the document into DW then go to menu item Modify->Templates->Detach from Template and save the file, you will have your original template called index.dwt and located in the Templates subdirectory.

Change Object Server in SLD after system copy and SLD move?

Hello,
we did the following:
- we migrated the SLD to the production system in our landscape
- we copied the NWDI to a new system
- the old object server was named sapsrv88 (object server attribute in the SLD) which was the hostname of the old SLD server
Do I have to change the object server attribute to the new hostname of the SLD? Does this have any influence on the software components that we allready developed?
Thanks and best regards
Jens

Hello Jens,
you can rename the object server - details you'll find in SAP note 935245
When you rename it, the ID of the objects in the SLD is changed to the new ID, so normally you shouldn't have any problems with that.
If you're unsure about it, you can backup your SLD content using "Administration => Content => Backup => All Instances" - that backs up everything under /sld/active
or backup the software components you devoped using http://<hostname>:5<instance-no.>00/SCD/SCDownload
Best regards
Cornelia

Copy and edit files

Hello,
In directory i have 19 file txt. i must copy the files to other directory and shorten all files name to 10 characters (without extension)
Files with the same name i should be added to the end character "_" and the next digit will starting at 0 .
Can you help me?
bernicls

the only thing wehave:
cd\TempFiles
$files
=gci-name*.txt
foreach
($filein$files)
$thename=$file.substring(10);
rename-item-pathc:\TempFiles\$file-newname$thename
However, this does not work as I want...
When you say it doesn't work, you will make it easier for us to help if you also say how and where it is failing. I suspect that $file.substring(10) fails because a file object does not have a substring method. It does have a few properties that are of type
string, which does have a substring method. These include name, basename, and fullname. Chen V's sample code seems to indicate this, so I won't provide any code samples.

Copying and editing DVD's.

I've copied a couple of things from the TV onto different DVD-R's and want to take parts of them and record them onto one DVD, how do I do it? Thanks

You need to convert the VOB files of the DVDs back to DV which iMovie is designed to handle. For that you need mpegStreamclip:
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/mpegstreamclip.html
which is free, but you must also have the Apple mpeg2 plugin :
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2/
which is a mere $20.
Another possibility is to use DVDxDV:
http://www.dvdxdv.com/NewFolderLookSite/Products/DVDxDV.overview.htm
which costs $25.
For the benefit of others who may read this thread:
Obviously the foregoing only applies to DVDs you have made yourself, or other home-made DVDs that have been given to you. It will NOT work on copy-protected commercial DVDs, which in any case would be illegal.
