Creating "Menu" for AVCHD File

Is it possible to create a menu file, or something like it, for an AVCHD file? I am hearing more and more that people want their video projects on flash drives, which is fine. But the downside is, as far as I can tell, you lose the menu screen when you export to the computer, as opposed to burning a DVD. Sometimes the menu screen contains a logo or other art that people want to display when the video is not running (i.e. before they push "play movie").
I have tried to figure out how to create a separate file with just the menu art, but so far I'm stumped. Any help is appreciated.

Premiere Elements (any version) does not offer menu for export to file saved to the computer hard drive.
Disc menus are offered for burn to end product.The exception to all this is the export choice of webDVD which is in reality a flash file with menus.
What version of Premiere Elements are you working with and on what computer operating system is it running?
As I recall, webDVD did not appear in Premiere Elements until version 9.0/9.0.1. It used to be that the user could share these webDVDs via photoshop.com. Now that photoshop.com is gone, its replacement Adobe Revel does not offer that opportunity.

Missing thumbnail images for AVCHD files

I never had this problem before.
In the past I would import AVCHD (*.mt2s) video files to the oganizer using Premiere Elements 7.
Then I would open Photoshop Elements 7 and the video files I just imported in Premiere Elements 7 would display their thumbnails just fine.
NOW, these thumbnails do not display.
AVCHD files that I had previously imported still display their thumbnail, but any NEW AVCHD files do not display their thumbnail images; it just displays a default video thubmbnail graphic.
Furthermore, if I select "Update thumbnail" from the context menu of a previously imported AVCHD file with a thumbnail, then the thumbnail image goes away and siaplays the default graphic.
(PLEASE NOTE: when I click the default thumbnail image, it opens the video previewer successfully. So the answer is not that the video file is missing and therefore needs to be reconnected to regenerate the thumbnail image. So else is wrong here.)
How can I get the thumbnail feature to work properly? It works fine in Premiere Elements; the thumbnails images for both new and old imported files display just fine in that program, which is what I used to be able to see in Photoshop Elements. Why is PSE7 not displaying these video thumbnail images?

I have solved this issue myself a month or two ago and forgot to report my findings.
I alspo have a Canon HD camcorder so this was a major issue for me.
The way to resolve this issue (at least in my case) was to download a codec pack like k-lite. Do a google search for the codec pack or follow this link:
http://www.codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
When I installed the codec pack, I think I had to make sure M2TS files were selected within the installation wizard so just be aware of that.
Another way to resolve this issue is to upgrade to Windows 7. After I upgraded to Windows 7, I did not have to re-install the codec. I think Windows 7 has native support for AVCHD files.
I hope this helps. If it does, please report here if you encounter anything of note worthy since the details of this process are no longer fresh on my mind.

Creating menu for authored movies

Hi all,
I want to create a new menu for a movie. The problem is that the movie is already in a TS folder, and I don't know how to link the menu (play button) to the movie in the TS folder (iDVD won't accept vob files). Is this possible in iDVD or any dvd editor?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Greg,
My problem is not with authoring the movie however, it's that I don't understand how to add a menu to an already authored movie.
Since iDVD can't open an already authored movie, I know that it's impossible to finish it all within iDVD, but I like the menu editor in iDVD, and was hoping there was a way to create a dvd menu and then link it to an authored movie (by changing the scripting).As I said, iDVD cannot do what you described. Toast 7 Tatinium can. The VIDEO_TS already has the menu script and the encoded movie together. iDVD cannot take them apart and re-piece with a different menu script. Toast can take the main movie part and piece it with Toast's menu.

How to create link for pdf file in discoverer worksheet

Hi All,
I would like to create a link for pdf file into discoverer report (worksheet).
So that i can open linked pdf file using worksheet link.
Can any one tell me about this?
Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
I think the best way to do this is to use a database directory so that you can access your pdf file as a bfile. Then create a mod_plsql procedure that sets the mime type and downloads the pdf file. You then create a calculation in the EUL then returns the URL to your mod_plsql procedure. You can then include this calculation as a hyperlink in your worksheet.
It is not as difficult as it sounds. Please let me know if you need anymore details.

Sharepoint Online - File Associations - Create association for .sql files in SPO365

I maintain a document library as a script repository with .sql scripts. we refer to these often for operational processes.
unfortunately, we are currently only given the option to download these files from SharePoint Online.
Is it possible to create an association in SharePoint Online to have these files preview as text or to at least open them in SSMS or Notepad.
caveat = we dont want to change the default OS association for these files. SSMS is fine for the desktop, but in SPO365 a text viewer would be ideal as it would most easlily facilitate a copy and paste.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, when you removed the Read List and Read Item operations and created them back based off of the view and recreated the external list, you saw all the columns you wanted.
Then you can modify view to choose the columns which you want to display.
The issue is, now the item picker and other operations that did not change seem to be going off of the view.
Do you mean that when you add/edit the item, it still displays the foreign key column in the list view?

The "Open With" menu for PDF files has 19 apps listed to choose from.

How do I modify the drop down menu for "Open With" to eliminate about 15 apps suggested for PDF files?

I want to permanently shorten the list down to only a few apps to select from.

Creating folders for data files on a Mac

On a Mac platform, I am interested in trying to programically create
folders (named by the user) for data files to be placed in. How can
this be done? Currently, if I send a path that includes new folders
that don't exist to the Write to Spreadsheet.vi, I get an error 7 (new
files don't exist). However if I manually create the folders before
executing the VI, the files are written correctly. How can I avoid this
last step. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I thank you in
advance.

CS4, Data Merge, creating menu for restaurant

Hey folks.
I am making menu for a restaurant, and i am pretty familiar with Data Merge, but this one is driving me crazy.
The problem is in structure of my data table, CSV. All the tutorials and all the help files are revolving around data which is not broken down into SEGMENTS, rather each row is it's own segment.
For example, all tutorials have:
NAME; DESCRIPTION; PRICE
Food1; Nice food 1; 100
Food2; Nice food 2, 200
Food3; Nice food 3, 300
And what i have is a section name added to this as well, like this:
SECTION NAME; FOOD NAME; DESCRIPTION; PRICE
First section; Food1; Nice food 1; 100
-blank-;Food2; Nice food 2, 200
-blank-;Food3; Nice food 3, 300
Second section; Food1; Nice food 1; 100
-blank-;Food2; Nice food 2, 200
-blank-;Food3; Nice food 3, 300
As you see, some pieces of data are "missing".
So basically what i need InDesign to do is to recognize that section name is something that needs to be filled only once, until it hits another entry in SECTION NAME column.
You have all seen how restaurant menus look like, no need to further explain this i hope. Section name -> lots of data in that section -> New section.
Is that possible at all in InDesign?

Goran,
you can modify your data in InDesign without DataMerge:
- place your CSV file in InDesign as text
- convert it to Table - with ";" as field delimiter
- add new column after first column
you will have something like this:
First section|.|.Food1|.Nice.food.1|.100
-blank-......|.|.Food2|.Nice.food.2|.200
- next step - convert your Table to Text with tab as delimiter
- now replace three tabs "^t^t^t" to "#@#"
First section|.|.Food1|.Nice.food.1|.100
#@#Food2|.Nice.food.2|.200
- now replace two tabs "^t^t" to "#$#^p#@#"
First section#$#
#@#Food1|.Nice.food.1|.100
#@#Food2|.Nice.food.2|.200
- now replace "#@#" to "" (nothing) and apply Item ParagraphStyle
- now replace two tabs "#@#" to "" (nothing)
- now replace "#$#" to "" (nothing) and apply SectionTitle ParagraphStyle
- now replace "#$#" to "" (nothing)
so after all you will have:
First section (with SectionTitle ParagraphStyle)
Food1|.Nice.food.1|.100 (with Item ParagraphStyle)
Food2|.Nice.food.2|.200 (with Item ParagraphStyle)
now you can redefine TabStops in Item ParagraphStyle and play with NestedStyles :)
of course all these setps could be automated ;)

Create javadoc for java files under development

hi
i would like to know if there is any method by which i can generate javadoc of java files that are in the process of development.
What i do is first create a skeleton java file with just the methods defined along with their javadoc comments and then start implementing the methods.
I do a daily build of javadoc and hence its not necessary that a coding of a particular method is completed before javadoc is run.
sibi

it dint work for me. i have a sample code
public class HelloWorld
      * Sample Hello world. Note the 3rd System.out.print is missing a ";" and hence
      * should cause a compile error and Javadoc must have no problem running.
     public static void main()
          System.out.print("H");
          System.out.print("E");
          System.out.print("L")     //Note ";" is missing
          System.out.print("LO WORLD");
          System.out.println();
}Note the 3rd System.out.print has a ";"missing and must generate an error when compiling but the javadoc must run properly. Note the method main() is fully defined with parameters and return types.
Pls correct me if i am wrong.

How to create keyboard for Load Files into Photoshop

does anyone know if there is a way to create or is there an existing keyboard shortcut to Load Files into Photoshop from Bridge?

I should have been more specifc.
Much like in bridge-tools-photoshop-load files into photoshop, I want to load multiple files into a layered photoshop document.
Can't seem to find a keyboard shortcut for this action. Though I don't know how to write scripts very well but there are far too many keyboard shortcut posts I've searched and can't seem to find a way.
thanks

How to change the created date for a file?

I searched and found someone had asked this question last month, and an answer given was to try the site:
http://danilo.ariadoss.com/howto-change-date-modified-date-created-mac/
which I had previously found. However, when I follow the instructions I get a message stating "-bash: -t: command not found"
I have gone through this numerous times, always with the same result. Is it possible that the direction given are not valid for Snow Leopard?
Thanks for any help.

First, thanks to both of you for helping - I hadn't realized that the 'touch' was part of the command itself. However, when I type in:
touch -t 0904131115/Users/RobertFately/Desktop/suttonallen/suttonallen.jpg
to test the procedure (there is a jpeg file I made today named suttonallen inside a directory of the same name) I get this error message:
touch: out of range or illegal time specification: [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.SS]
This happens if I use the full year (2009) or just the last two digits (09) as seen above. My thinking is that I am attempting to redate the "create date" to April 13th of this year with an arbitrary time of 11:15AM.

Create destinations for pdf file

I would like to create in Frame a destination that appears in the pdf as a destination, I would think this would work:
but in the pdf file, it doesn't appear, is there another way? Are my settings correct?

FM adds a prefix to the named destination in order to make the destinations absolutely unique. Depending upon whether the file is part of a book or a single file, the exact string will vary. For a standalone file, it will be "M8.newlink.<your newlink text, e.g. target_device>" or if it's part of a book, "M1.8.newlink.target_device> where th digit after the "M" refers to the files position in the book.
You either have to add the prefix to the PDF links that you manually want to create in other applications that target the PDF you're creating or use Shlomo Perets' TimeSavers (see: FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers ) to have the prefix stripped.
