Creating Menus with CMs made in DVDSP4

I'm not quite sure how to explain what I want but here goes...I encode my movies using BitVice, but before doing so I have to open the movie in QT Pro and turn on the text track so that BitVice will recognize the chapter markers. For some reason today though I am unable to open a wedding video I exported out of FCP 5. QT crashes as soon as I select the file. It doesn't do it with any other file. Anyway I sent the movie straight to BitVice and I'll create the markers in DVDSP4. However, when I met with the client they were really impressed with the Chapter Menus. So here's my question: Can I still create the menus after I set the markers in DVDSP4, so it would like it normally does when I import a movie with pre-set markers?
G5 1.8ghz single Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2 int 160GB HDs 250GB ext 2.75GB RAM DVDSP4 FCP5.04 QT pro 7.1.2.

If I understand you correctly, that's no problem. I believe the only significant difference creating the markers in DVD SP instead of FCP, is that you're limited to setting markers at I-frames in the GOP structure. That is, you won't be able to set the markers as frame-accurately as you would in FCP. Shouldn't be an issue unless you have very specific frames where you need markers. When you create your menus you'll be able to link to any markers you just created.

How to create a navigation bar with custom made buttons?

I'm used to work with a similar program as Muse. In there we can create a single button and link them together into a navigation bar. I have tried all sorts of tutorials but none of them is discussing this possibility.
To summorize. The idea is to create a button in photoshop and to use this as a theme to build a navigation bar. Possible or not and how? Thanks for assistance. Rgds Rufin

Hi Brad,
Thanks for your reply.
No, not really. I used to work with XARA up till now. And being an Adobe Cloud user I think it a bit silly using two different systems. In XARA I can create a custom button and turn them into a navbar. For your information I include a few links to sites I created with Xara and I would like to know if I can create the same type of navbars with Abobe Muse. I already found out that all the other functions are available and some work a lot better in Muse, but I’m stuck on the navbar issue. I know I can create a button in Adobe PS and use it in Muse. But I didn’t manage to figure out how to create a navbar in Muse on basis of a button created in PS.

Using Same Menus with Revised Source Movie?

My prediction on this question is that the only answer will be: Recreate From Scratch. But just to further my education, here goes...
I have an iDVD project which I've got set up and working nicely from the DVD authoring standpoint. Menus and buttons have been extensively customized and configured, and everything's functioning the way I want. But for some unforeseen image-quality reasons, I had to go back to my Final Cut timeline and change some filter effects on a number of clips. Other than that, the timeline is exactly the same length, and all the Chapter Markers remain in the exact same locations, with the same names, etc.
So I exported a new .mov QuickTime from FinalCut (called "Project_v2.mov" for the sake of this discussion), and meantime did a "Save As" in iDVD (creating a file called "iDVDProject_v2.dvdproj").
The Questions:
1) Is there now any way (either official or sneaky) whereby I can import the new "Project_v2.mov" source movie into this new "iDVDProject_v2.dvdproj" file, and have iDVD do its proprietary encoding -- but still have all my menus link to this new source material (which is frame-for-frame identical to the original source movie in terms of content, just with some different filter settings applied back in FCP)?
2) If (as I fear) I have to start with a whole new project, and re-create all the custom menus and specific button settings, is there any efficient way to copy menu & button configurations from one project to another -- since "Saving as Favorite Theme" doesn't seem to retain a lot of that button & menu customization, though it's possible I'm not using it correctly.
3) Again just for my education, if this were a DVD-SP project -- and the new .mov source movie had been encoded into asset-ready .m2v and .ac3 files using the same names as the originals -- would I be able to simply trick DVD-SP into referencing these new files and linking to their identical Chapter Markers from the already-created menus and buttons?
Brain hurting now. Must go think about calm, blue oceans...

1. Bengt is right. The 'bug' will cause your chapter markers to default to the same chapter; usually the one nearest the change in your movie, but not always. Even though iDVD will recognize that 'assets have changed' and asks if you wish to update, it will only appear to have incorporated the changes, but the chapter markers will not work. There is no 'fix.' You must recreate the project.
2. You can use 'Grab' to take screen shots of your custom menus and settings so you can more easily reproduce them, but you cannot do a custom saving of those to use in another project. Cheer up; it actually doesn't take THAT long since you have already created the project once, and you can refer to your screen shots to be sure you are reproducing it correctly.
3. No experience with DVD-SP, but I am thinking it may be much the same as iDVD as far as doing what you propose.
Good luck with the redo when you are back from the calm blue oceans!

How do I make interactive DVD/Blu-Ray menus with motion?

So, adobe doesn't support Encore anymore which means I can't use dynamic link to AE to create interactive DVD/Blu-Ray menus with motion.... or can I? Is there something I'm doing wrong? While in Encore, I go to dynamic link and boom, dynamic link to AE is not highlighted. If I can't make an interactive menu with motion using adobe, then what can I use? This is causing a major problem for me and my clients. (if i over looked the answer to this in another post, my apologies)

You can use the "Create After Effects Composition." This prompts you to create an independent version of the Encore PSD menu file, and opens the layered file in AE CC and creates a new composition with appropriate settings. AE no longer has mpeg export, so you export from AE to AME.
There were some workflow options that I did not play with much, but they were never what I saw as the basics for using AE to create the motion background.
You need to understand these two help pages:
Adobe Encore * Menu timing and looping
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/encore/cs/using/WSF49EA5DB-3743-49c2-9831-F66328B192F8.html

http://help.adobe.com/en_US/encore/cs/using/WSA5513911-0AD1-440c-BDAD-2E0E806B425E.html
I'm not sure what you mean by "interactive" unless you just mean creating navigation.

Create Annotations with 'author' name tool property

Philip Cord has kindly sent me this code that allows to create annotations with the "Author" tool property (older versions than CS3 couldn't get this on script listener - only on the CS3 script listener).
Hope it helps anyone like me that can't have access anymore to CS3

This is a bit more robust (it won't fall over if you have no images open or can't find the corresponding image) I've made it so if you have the thumbnail image open it will find the mannequin image and visa versa. Save the script to your PS scripts directory. In photoshop record an action that uses the script. Stop recording! Then you can run the script as an action.
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS;
if (documents.length == 0)
    alert ("No documents open, dude!")
else
    var dir1 = "Mannequin";
    var dir2 = "Thumbnails";
    // call the current document
    var tempDoc = app.activeDocument;
    // get the info out of the source doc
    var fileName = tempDoc.name;
    var filePath = tempDoc.path.toString();
    var fileNameAndPath = filePath + '/' + fileName;
    var tempDir = filePath.substring(filePath.lastIndexOf("/") +1, filePath.length);
    var goCode = false;
    var docName = fileName.substring(0,fileName.length -4);
    if (tempDir == dir1)
        var otherImagePath = filePath.substring(0, filePath.lastIndexOf(dir1));
        var tempFile = decodeURI(otherImagePath + "/" + dir2 + "/" + fileName);
        goCode = true;
    if (tempDir == dir2)
        var otherImagePath = filePath.substring(0, filePath.lastIndexOf(dir2));
        var tempFile = decodeURI(otherImagePath + "/" + dir1 + "/" + fileName);
        goCode = true;
    if (tempDir != dir1 && tempDir != dir2)
        alert("Cannot find matching image.")
        goCode = false;
    if (goCode)
        //open the other image
        var fileRef = new File(tempFile)
        if (fileRef.exists)
            app.open(fileRef);
        else
            alert("Matching file does not exist.")
}// end doc check
Hope this helps.

Delivery shouold not create only with Materail A

Hi All,
My requiment is:
I have created one Sales Order with Four Materails (A,B,C,D).
Now I want to create delivery - here the delivery should not be created only with Materail A. that means to create a delivery i have to enter materail B or C or D with A (with single materail A delivery should not create)
The materail is not a BOM item or solution is not related to Delivery group.
Can any one kindly suggest me how can i made setting such that i cannot create Delivery only with Materail A.

hi amjad,
this is to inform you that you cannot achieve this in standard configuration.
but with technical person you can achieve the same.
I have created one Sales Order with Four Materails (A,B,C,D) - ok
Now I want to create delivery - here the delivery should not be created only with Materail A - ok.
that means to create a delivery i have to enter materail B or C or D with A (with single materail A delivery should not create) - ok
this is copy control routine from sales document to delivery document.
logic for the same is:
read VBAP-POSNR 10,20,30 & 40 & VBAP-MATNR that is MATERIAL A,B,C,& D.
check if when ever VBAP-POSNR 10 - material -A is coming into the delivery whether the associated VBAP - POSNR's (any one). is there or not.
if it is there with any one of the POSNR's then process it other wise "E" message with "No Associated Materials Exist for Material A"
note : for this process please copy and create a new sales order to delivery to billing documents.
hope this helps.
please check with your abaper and update the forum.

balajia

Best way to create menus [was: Queston]

What technique or is a template used to create the menu for this Adobe page? I have been studying web development (reading and tutorials) and the sections are always short on creating menus. Mostly, covers creating buttons with behaviors in Fireworks and inserting them into Navigation Bars and Tables? What are the best ways to create menus?
[Subject line edited by moderator]

Howdy,
The best way is definately not the Fireworks way. Never has been.
Take RJweb's advise and check out the PVII Menu Magic. I use that all the time and its very easy to customize with its well laid out CSS files. I havn't found anything easier to use and customize yet.

Any way to Create Menus in version 4?

Dear fellow Premier Elements users -- I'm running version 4.0 of Premier Elements, and no matter what I try it crashes when I try to Create Menus (using a template). I've created many DVDs using this great tool, but I now I need to make a DVD with scene menus. The crash I get is in:
adobe premier elements.exe AppVer 4.0.0.0 MonName dvdcreator.dll ModVer 4.0.0.0 Offset 0006d14d
I would be happy to create scene menus in any way. My movie timeline has both video and stills, and I've defined two scene markers (but no menu markers). It seems that Adobe must have tested this function before they shipped the code, so I suspect there is a procedure that works. Has anyone successfully done this? I'd very much appreciate knowing how you did it!
I updated the Adobe software using the Adobe updater, so I do not think there is a released fix for my problem. Since my version isn't the current one, I don't think that that Adobe support will help. I had a similar experience with my previous vendor of moving-making software. That time I purchased the current version only to discover that the show-stopping bug was present in the new version. I felt silly for investing in the upgrate, and I switched to Adobe's products because I thought that they were a more reputable company. Up to now, their software has worked pretty well. If I can not find a way around this problem however, I fear that I'll have to abondon Adobe and start using Apple's products. I have a soft spot in my heart (for PC-based software) but not a soft spot in my head!
Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on this vexing problem
Jim

Hey Steve -- Brilliant. I think you nailed it. I'm working on a older PC. It's a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 with 2 GB or RAM running Windows XP SP 3. There are 17 GB of defragmented free disk space (which took hours to defragment). Although Premier Elements is the only program running, it still can crashes as soon as I select a menu template and click Apply.
The reason that I think your answer is correct is that I ran the same version of Premier Elements on my office laptop: 2.2 GHz Duo core T7500 with 2 GM of RAM and 72 GB free disk. I was able to apply a menu template on a much more complicated DVD project without any problems. It appears that my older home PC does not have the horsepower for this feature.
So you not only diagnosed my problem, you renewed my faith in Adobe. Now I'll upgrade to a hotter PC instead of jumping to a Mac. I've never liked the proprietary HW and SW strategy that Apple rams down our throats. I bought my first Apple device this year: an iPod Touch. Lovely little device, but I was flabbergasted that I would have to jailbreak the SW to be able to copy MP3 files onto it with anything other than Apple's own iTunes program. And they've jiggered it somehow to prevent tethering it in the States with a cell phone via Bluetooth. Makes me think that my ex-wife must be on the board... a chilling thought to be sure.
But Adobe makes great photograhic SW for both PC and Mac. The reason my home PC has only 17 GB free is that I have more than 12,000 digital photos online. All taged and deftly managed and optimized with Photoshop Elements. Nice.
Thanks for your help Steve -- Jim

Creating a Flex CMS

I am looking to create a Flex CMS for managing a school site.
I have an .xml file that is connected to my flex image gallery. To
make it easier on the people that need to edit or add information
about the photos I am looking to create a CMS. I realize that this
would involve using other technologies such as PHP but if someone
would like to assist me on this project I would be greatful. If
there is a way to do this I would also like to expand this to edit
HTML files as well. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.
I was looking to Flex for this project because of the great
interface and possibities but it is not nessasary for me to use
this ( I could always go with a standard approach - HTML, PHP, etc.
Thanks

The project is a new extension to the school site for clubs
and organizations. I currently have a homepage and one club site
ready. The club site is for the art club hense the image gallery. I
do not want to be resoponsible for adding content for everyones
clubs and that is why i am looking towards CMS. I will have to
check about the permissions that can be given in regards to PHP nad
MySQL access as the server is shared for the entire school
district's websites. I will be trying to push access but in the
meantime I want to get started on the website.
Each club or organization will have its own login to give it
access to changing its own site. I do not want to give them any
access to the actual files on the server. In regards to the xml
file I will try to set it up in advance and not get them to edit it
as it will probably look intimidating with 100+ nodes.
I look forward to seeing what you have developed. I will
contact you via email with my contact information.
Thanks for the help,
Jon

Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc? How do I delete a place I have set up?

Geotagging - how can I edit new places that I have previously created but with typos, errors etc? How do I delete a place I have set up? Then I could create a new, correct entry. I'm using iPhoto '09.

Is it OK to reply to my own question?? Thanks to the related posts that appeared AFTER I'd made the post above, I learnt about the 'Manage my places' item under the Windows menu. I felt a bit dumb not knowing this.
BUT it doesn't completely resolve the issue. The info shown in the EXIF (using opt-cmd-I) under Places has the place name I choose, but it is followed by a few other lines that are incorrect and do not seem to be anything to do with any data I can see under 'Manage my places'.
Can anyone explain where these other entries might come from, and how to edit them?

Is DPS work with CMS?

I'm a mobile app developer. My client would like to develop an app for their publication created by ID, as well as some contents that they may update always. Is DPS capable to work with CMS? Thanks.

InDesign is not a necessity here unless you use it for normal folio creation + design and upload to the Cloud.
You can create folios and articles entirely in WP, associate them together and publish different renditions targeting different devices.
Have a look at this MAX 2014 video, you'll get a better idea.
