Crucial time for Adobe and PrP

With the release of Avid 6, the next few months are a crucial time for Adobe to implement some damage control to deal with the recurring issues that the general population are experiencing. (for details just read this and Adobe forum list for the last 4 weeks.)
I am beginning to hear die hard switchers seriously considering now switching to Avid. Many of these are facility based, but lots of individuals as well. Reliable playback, monitoring, tape based ingest are just a few of the issues that converts are growing increasingly weary off.
I mean no disrespect to Adobe, but if some steps arent taken to somehow address these issues, I really see the professional community passing PrP by and going to Avid. Adobe , you had a great opportunity to broaden your scope and user base. This opportunity wont happen again.

putting things in perspective for market share and global economy....
how to survive as a 'company' making software for everyone....
This friend of mine sent a photo of his doggy... who just died...old age... was a member of their " family" for a while... and they love that dog.
the dog loved them.. ( they will miss him ).
So I got the photo .. and mssg that dog had died.. and felt sorta sad for them.
this is photo
It looked a little " blue-ish " to me.. so I put it into photoshop and did some selective color stuff...tried to fix it a little bit... and then I said to myself... " why not send this back to them ... with a part of my heartfelt sorrow and understanding for their grief.. and sorta a tribute to " Jetta" the dog ??
This took me literally 10 minutes to do... and this is the product

This is what adobe premiere pro is " worth " to me.  To others, making movies and tv commercials it demands more from the program to do what THEY want.. but for ME... what you see here is fine with me.
How's THAT for market share and selling globally ???  Think about it...
ps.. this was  yesterday.. really.. took such a short amount of time to be " creative" and send this back... and it says something about us as a culture of " immediate " gratification etc.. whats wrong with that?  If I do a movie... thats another world... is adobe supposed to do it all ??? I dont think so.

  • Design Time for Processes and Forms

    Hi experts,
    When trying to open  "Design Time for Processes and Forms" in order to create a process, I get a dump.
    Could you let me know what could be wrong ? config? etc..
    Hereunder is a sample of what I found in T.code ST22

    If in the ASSERT statement the addition FIELDS was used, you can find
    the content of the first 8 specified fields in the following overview:

                     WITH KEY node_id = object_hierarchy_node_wa-ref_node_id

  • HT5243 how do I find my password for adobe and Java

    how do I find my password for adobe and Java

    "Java" doesn't have a password, unless you mean your admin password for installing software. That's whatever password you (or the person who set your computer up) used to set up your admin account. That's the same password that you use when you start up the computer if you get asked for one. You cannot retrieve this password if you've forgotten it, but you can reset it and make a new one. See this support article if that's the case:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14325
    "Adobe" is a company and likewise doesn't have a password. However, if you have Adobe cloud-based software you may well have set up a password with them. Adobe also require an account and password for downloading certain products. You'll need to contact Adobe to retrieve any such password if you've lost it.

  • My battery runs low very fast (three hours). I looked in the usage settings and it seems the time for usage and stand-by are the same, allthough i did have my iphone on stand-by!! What can i do?

    Community,
    I have a problem with my iphone 4. Every few months my battery starts draining within a few hours. I have tried all kinds of battery saving tips, but they don't help. When i go to the settings/general/usage is can see that the time for Usage and Stand-by are the same, so my phone is fully on all the time this explains the draining. But in reallity i turn my phone to stand-by most of the time, i mean the screen is black and all???
    The first and second time a had this problem, both a few months a part,  i restored my phone and it was solved. This time i restored my phone but this did not help!! And restoring my phone every two months is not my preferd way of solving this problem.
    Does anybody have an idea on how to solve this problem? can anybody help me?
    best regards,
    Merijn

    Restoring is the answer. It sounds as if there is a rogue process constantly draining your battery.
    The issue you face is that, if you restore your backup thereafter, you risk the problem coming straight back with your files.
    Store your files individually and it is time to start fresh.

  • Entering custom backend service in Design Time for Processes and Forms

    Hi all,
    I am trying to create a form that have 3 fields:
    1. pernr
    2. ename
    3. effective_date
    I done all the necessary setup of BADI ,class, interface and form.
    However I cannot seem to insert my custom backend service in the Design Time for Processes and Forms workbench (t-code:hrasr_dt).
    Currently, I am just using SAP_PA for my backend service which is unable to load the ename into my form. The code in my custom class will not be triggered if I did not use my custom back end service in the Design Time for Processes and Forms.
    Whenever I tried using my custom back end service, I will encounter the assertion_failed dump.
    Anyone have any idea?
    Edited by: Siong Chao on Dec 22, 2010 6:35 AM

    Hi Siong Chao,
    The filter name you have used in the BADI for your generic service requires to be defined in the Create / Edit Generic Service - Definition.( You can see this on selecting the Back-end services node under Form Scenario definition while using HRASR_DT transaction code)
    Once you do that, you can import the fields defined in the Generic service BADI - using the same procedure used in standard SAP backend sevices.
    Hope this clarifies. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
    Best Regards
    G Raj

  • So is it just me, or is Mavericks a bust?  My MBP runs way hotter now. I don't have time for trial and error solutions. Is Apple offering a way to downgrade back to Mountain lion? I want out of Mavericks ASAP.

    So is it just me, or is Mavericks a bust?  My MBP runs much hotter since the upgrade. Why do I need ot sit around watching Activity Monitor, manually controlling my fans, and deleting extensions that I enjoy using. Don't even get me started on the Quicktime/Mov issues. I had none of these issues on Mountian Lion. Searching these forums, I see it's not just me. Why would Apple release a new system w/o peoperly testing it on MBPs?
    I don't have time for trial and error solutions. I've tried the obvious ones. No help. Is Apple offering a way to downgrade back to Mountain lion?  Or better yet, a Mavericks update that adresses these problems? As of now, I want out of Mavericks ASAP.
    My processor is 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7.
    8 GB 1600 MHZ DDR3 memory.
    13inch MBP purchased ust over a year ago- 1-13.

    Nope, it'a not just me, see above. And yup- I'm backed up, But I don't own a Mountain lion install disc. That's why I was posting here in the first place. Thanks
    Nobody owns a ML install disc - ML was only ever distributed as a download from the Mac App Store.
    If you have a Time Machine backup, you can boot into recovery mode and restore from your Moutain Lion TM backup volume.  If you have a system clone, then you can boot from the clone, and just clone ML back onto your internal drive.
    Going back to your previous installation from a backup should be trivially simply if you have the backup in hand.

    Hi JoeyR.  Well, according to this link at the Apple Store, OS X Moutain Lion became available in July and I downloaded it for $19.99.  I figured I would do that before renewing my Norton security SW.  Are we talking about the same thing?

  • Long time for Adobe Media Encoder to encode 3 minute video

    I created a Premiere Pro project with a dynamic link to Adobe After effects (both CS4 versions).
    Upon finishing this PremPro project which is a 3 minute song with 3d animation playing in the background, I chose Export Media.
    Since first try was taking a long time (15 minutes and little progress), I removed the 3 transitions I had in my Premiere Pro Project, reduced the audio from 128 to 64 bit, decreased the bit rate to its lowerst 56 kbps instead of the default which is something like 1000-2000 kbps I believe (Please let me know default value so I can reset it ) and reduced video size from 960 x 620 to 380 x 244.  I also shut all of my programs that could be chewing up significant memory.
    I'm just looking for a rough feel of how things will look so only wanted to start with a 'draft quality' render of my flv - but the Adobe Media Encoder is still saying it will take 1 and a half hours, and this is on a 64 bit, Win 7 system with lots of RAM (24GB) and plenty of hard drive space.
    The actual After Effects compositions are fairly complex, with numerous 3d animations superimposed on one another, but I wasn't sure if this sluggishness suggested something was wrong that I need to correct to get quicker performance, or if it's simply a reflection of a complicated scene, and that's how long things will take even at those very minimal settings.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Not sure what you mean about the process.  From Premiere CS5, I click on "export" which brings up a menu. I select "media" from the menu which brings up the Adobe Media Encoder.  I adjust my settings and click "export" from the bottom of the screen to immediately render the Premiere file.  Clicking "Queue" would put the program into the AME Queue.  Am I missing something?  On the slowness issue, looks like I need to reinstall AME. I've been reluctant to do that, partially because I'm using some Matrox hardware and I'll have to reinstall the Matrox softare to populate the matrox settings into the media encoder. Looks like it may be worth it.
    Thanks.

  • If I have manually set "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for songs, and my hard drive is backed up in Time Machine, when files/songs are transferred on new hard drive, will my "Start Time" "Stop Time" options be there?

    My Macbook Pro will be going in for reimaging and my hard drive will be wiped, I want to know if all my iTunes preferences will be copied if I have backed them up on Time Machine. Specifically, if I have set certain "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for my songs, and I copy my iTunes library, will these "Start Time" and "Stop Time" options remain or will I have to manually set them one by one once again? I need a reply ASAP! Thanks so much!

    As far as I'm aware the start & stop times are stored in the library database, not the media files. If you backup/restore/transfer the whole library then the settings are included. If you create a complete copy of your iTunes folder on another drive you can connect to that copy by holding down option/alt as you start iTunes so you can check that everything is working properly before you send the Macbook away.

  • Question about  Graphics Cards for Adobe and more

    Hello, for technical people I'll start by listing some relevant computer info:    Asus P9x79Pro Motherboard . Nvidia Quadro 4000 2GB . Windows 7 . Adobe CS6
    I have a workstation PC and have been considering ways to improve it. I'm pretty happy with both Memory and Processor, so now I'm looking at the Graphics Card. I got the Quadro specifically because it was listed on Premiere's list of Mercury Accelerated Playback cards. I have no real issues with it, but I'm wondering if I'm getting everything I can out of it. I also use Resolve often and occasionally Maya, but not often. Sometimes these other programs feel sluggish. I'd like a set up that is most optimal for Adobe PPro and AE, but is also good for Resolve. I'm less worries about Maya.
    My motherboard can support 4 GPU's, but I've never had more than 1 before. I'm curious how to go about it.  What sort of advantages will I get with a second GPU, how will this help me? Since I have a Quadro, should I get another Quadro? Should I run them SLI or run them independently? I've also been looking at the GTX Series, would those be preferable? If so, how should I set up my system, run monitors off 1 and use the other as a GPU boost? I really don't know enough about multi-GPU set ups, and I can't seem to find the answers I'm looking for, so any and all help is appreciated.
    Thank you

  • Lead Time for manufacturing and its corresponding Quantity in Material Mast

    Hi all ,
    Do we have any feilds in SAP Material Master
    which are useful for
    1) Lead Time for manufacturing
    2) Manfactured Lead Time Quantity
    if the mateials are produced inhouse.
    thanks
    ksr

    Dear,
    There are no such a fields in material master, But in MRP 3 view you will get theotal replenishment lead time field.
    Which use for the produced in-house if the replenishment lead time is included in the availability check:
    This is nothing but the  in-house production time and, if available, the goods receipt processing time.
    Also refer this link to calculate the in-house production time correctly,
    Total Manufacturing time for assembly

  • Ran installation asst. several times for XI and at the end of the download, nothing happened. No prompt for where to install the trial program.  Don't know why. No error msg. NADA. This is most annoying!

    RAn install asst. for XI several times.  Download completedwith no error msgs.  No promp for where TI install trial.  Nothing!
    now what?  I think there is a major flaw with this utility?  I used to beta test for Microsoft so am no computer novice. 
    I need answeres
    THank you

    Listen up, Bill!
    I am running Windows 7 Ultimate and Internet Explorer version 11 (latest) –
    I used to beta test for Microsoft (among a plethora of software developers)
    and am no stranger to installing software. Did it all the time (at home and
    at work).
    The Acrobat Install assistant leaves a lot to be desired, I’m afraid.  The
    last time I ran it from the web site on my PC, it asked where to install and
    the default is PROGRAM FILES.  What it was saving to that location was the
    actual install assistant – NOT the trial version of Acrobat XI – therein
    lies the difference.
    Will try your suggestion, however, and thanks for the link.
