Difference between IN and OUT and Media Start and Media END?? NEED HELP!!!

As the titles states, what is the difference?
I edited my film in preview/jpeg mode and now need to online the project to full quality. So far it hasn't gone to well. For example the media starts at 00:09:45:12. When I do a batch capture I watch the camera fly right by the time code that it should start capturing at. What am I doing wrong???
Some files onlined easy, but there is a set from one tape that just won't sync up or capture.
It also keeps telling me that I have time code breaks from time to time, but when I play the tapes back they look fine to me. No obvious breaks in time code from start to end.
thanks for any help or advice

Recapturing can be really tricky. Takes practice and it's never recommended that you try it out on a critical piece. Timecode breaks can be perceived by FCP as being caused by several things besides actual breaks in the flow of code. The most common is probably tape dropout.
The clips that are giving you trouble, try parking the tape very close to one of the start points and recapture only that one clip.
If your in point is too close to a timecode glitch, you will never be able to recapture it. You'll need to capture it using NOW and then recut the clip into the scene.

Media Foundation Source or H264 / AC3 differences between Windows and Phone 8?

I've got a working Matroska (MKV) Media Foundation Source for a Windows Store app (PC x86). It will play several different matroska files that contain H264 encoded video and AC3-encoded audio. It even has seek support. I've written the app
as a HTML/typescript Universal app with the MF Source as a C++ dll.
The problem is that the same code will not work on Windows Phone 8. I can play videos that don't require the external MF Source (i.e. MP4 files and AVI files) just fine on both platforms through my app, but the same MKV videos that played on an x86
PC will not play on Windows Phone 8 (Lumia 920).
I looked at the specs for the Snapdragon processor and it should be able to support both H264 at 720p resolution and AC3 (2-channel only). So I don't know what else I need to do to get this to work on WP8. The audio I'm trying to play is actually
6-channel, so that made me wonder if it was failing because WP8 supports 2-channel max, but I would have thought the audio just wouldn't work and the video would play normally.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
*edit* - just to be more specific, I can parse the file and create the presentation descriptor without errors. But when I finish opening the file and call the event for that, nothing else happens. What is weird is that the javascript video player
never throws the "canplay" event, nor does it throw the "error" event.
Lee McPherson

Thanks, not a bad suggestion to try.
On my Windows machine, I tried to get the MediaEncodingProfile via the createFromFileAsyc method. With a known file type, it outputs all properties of the video and audio streams (bitrate, etc). With an MKV file (container file with H264 video
and AC3 audio), I only get the type and subtype properties. Everything else is zero or null. This is because in my MFSource, I only set the type and subtype. This still allows the video to play on my windows machine. I assume the
built-in MFTransform for H264 video-to-uncompressed video parses the stream to get the relevant information. Likewise for audio.
On Windows Phone, when querying the file's MediaEncodingProfile, I get the same result. This is telling me that my MFSource will parse the file properly and set the subtypes for video and audio correctly. Everything else is still null or zero.
However, the file does not play. There is no returned event to the video element that it even *can* play.
Perhaps, I need to fill in the video and audio stream properties on the Windows Phone version. I really don't want to because that would mean having to parse some of the underlying video and audio streams themselves, not just parsing the container
information. (More work!) But this is what I mean when I ask about the differences between Windows and Windows Phone... perhaps the WP8.1 & Windows MFTransforms are different?
*EDIT* - I do get a JavaScript Console error that I didn't notice before: AUDIO/VIDEO: unknown MIME type. (VS error code: MEDIA12899)

Difference between continue and Exit ........?

Difference between continue and Exit ........

See a small example CONTINUE below with some notes:-
When Nothing to Do, CONTINUE: - In Oracle Database 11g PL/SQL has a new construct called CONTINUE, which is used in a loop. The statement moves the logic to the end of the loop and then to the beginning of the loop.
Eg:
begin
        for ctr in 1..100 loop
                continue when mod(ctr,10) != 0;
                dbms_output.put_line ('ctr='||ctr);
                  Continue Skip the executions of statements after this clause Like for numbers, those are not a multiple of 10. And comes to end loop then to start of loop
        end loop;
end;
Here is the output:
ctr=10
ctr=20
ctr=30
... and so on ...EXIT take you out of LOOP from current iteration and that will be last iteration.
Thanks!

What's the difference between Routing and Service Callout in ALSB?

I am puzzled by that.
what's the difference between them.
Or what's the situation should use Routing, and that of service callout?

There is little difference between routing and service callout.
Routing is symbolizes the transition of request thread to a response thread starts. (in OSB every invocation of proxy is undertaken by different request and response threads ). So by this definition, there can be only one route node in a pipeline.
Service call out is also used for similar actions as route node , but in pipeline. So service callout can be either in request pipeline (request thread) or in response pipeline (response thread ) . So in a proxy you can have multiple ServiceCallouts but only one route node.
There are some other slight differences.

Exact difference between se09 and se10

Hi all,
i want to know the exact difference between se09 and se10 .
i know
SE09 is the workbench transport requests transaction - here the developers can track changes to all ABAP workbench objects (dictionary, reports, module pools, etc). This is a developer-specific transaction and mostly all developers have access to this transaction.
SE10 is the customizing request display transaction - this displays all the customizing requests in the system. Again, this could be restricted to Business analysts if required, since they would be doing most of the customizing changes in the system.
but i think this is not the correct answer which is already appear in the thread list
recently sombady has answer like the one which i have mentioned above but the interviwer said that this is wrong.
CAN ANYONE TELL ME THE EXACT ANSWER AND HELP ME OUT.
Regards
fareed

Hi Fareed,
First of all, i would say its a nice obsevation. As soon as i saw your post i started checking both transactions in seperate window and i found something interesting.
My Observation is as follows:-
<b>When we create a Transaction, apart from the Transaction Name, Program Name, Screen Number etc., we also can give someting called "AUTHORIZATION FOR CALLED TRANSACTIONS", under the menu: UTILITIES of the window.
Also we can use TRANSACTION:SE97, Maintain Transaction call Authorization in CALL TRANSACTION. Here we maintain the list of TRANSACTION CALLED for our Calling Transaction.
Now if you see, this list for Transaction SE09 and SE10, The Authorization for Called Transaction Differs a lot. Hence the difference bettween SE09 and SE10 is mainly the AUTHORIZATION Objects.</b>
<b>NOTE:</b> This is my own observation, so there are chances of misinterpretation from my side, accounting to the human err. But this is something new to me too.
Thanks and regards,
RAVI :).

MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARALLEL AND SEQUENTAIL PRCESSING???

HI PALS,
I WANT THE COMPLETE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PARALLEL AND SEQUENTIAL PROCESSING!
IN THE CONTEXT OF RFC.

Hi
Parallel Processing
To achieve a balanced distribution of the system load, you can use destination additions to execute function modules in parallel tasks in any application server or in a predefined application server group of an SAP system.
Parallel-processing is implemented with a special variant of asynchonous RFC. Itu2019s important that you use only the correct variant for your own parallel processing applications: the CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK DESTINATION IN GROUP keyword. Using other variants of asynchronous RFC circumvents the built-in safeguards in the correct keyword, and can bring your system to its knees
Details are discussed in the following subsections:
·        Prerequisites for Parallel Processing
·        Function Modules and ABAP Keywords for Parallel Processing
·        Managing Resources in Parallel Processing
Prerequisites for Parallel Processing
Before you implement parallel processing, make sure that your application and your SAP system meet these requirements:
·        Logically-independent units of work:
The data processing task that is to be carried out in parallel must be logically independent of other instances of the task. That is, the task can be carried out without reference to other records from the same data set that are also being processed in parallel, and the task is not dependent upon the results of others of the parallel operations. For example, parallel processing is not suitable for data that must be sequentially processed or in which the processing of one data item is dependent upon the processing of another item of the data.
By definition, there is no guarantee that data will be processed in a particular order in parallel processing or that a particular result will be available at a given point in processing.
·        ABAP requirements:
¡        The function module that you call must be marked as externally callable. This attribute is specified in the Remote function call supported field in the function module definition (transaction SE37).
¡        The called function module may not include a function call to the destination u201CBACK.u201D
¡        The calling program should not change to a new internal session after making an asynchronous RFC call. That is, you should not use SUBMIT or CALL TRANSACTION in such a report after using CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK.
¡        You cannot use the CALL FUNCTION STARTING NEW TASK DESTINATION IN GROUP keyword to start external programs.
·        System resources:
In order to process tasks from parallel jobs, a server in your SAP system must have at least 3 dialog work processes. It must also meet the workload criteria of the parallel processing system: Dispatcher queue less than 10% full, at least one dialog work process free for processing tasks from the parallel job.
Function Modules and ABAP Keywords for Parallel Processing
You can implement parallel processing in your applications by using the following function modules and ABAP keywords:
·        SPBT_INITIALIZE: Optional function module.
Use to determine the availability of resources for parallel processing.
You can do the following:
¡        check that the parallel processing group that you have specified is correct.
¡        find out how many work processes are available so that you can more efficiently size the packets of data that are to be processed in your data.
·        CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname DESTINATION IN GROUP:
With this ABAP statement, you are telling the SAP system to process function module calls in parallel. Typically, youu2019ll place this keyword in a loop in which you divide up the data that is to be processed into work packets. You can pass the data that is to be processed in the form of an internal table (EXPORT, TABLE arguments). The keyword implements parallel processing by dispatching asynchronous RFC calls to the servers that are available in the RFC server group specified for the processing.
Note that your RFC calls with CALL FUNCTION are processed in work processes of type DIALOG. The DIALOG limit on processing of one dialog step (by default 300 seconds, system profile parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time) applies to these RFC calls. Keep this limit in mind when you divide up data for parallel processing calls.
·        SPBT_GET_PP_DESTINATION: Optional function module.
Call immediately after the CALL FUNCTION keyword to get the name of the server on which the parallel processing task will be run.
·        SPBT_DO_NOT_USE_SERVER: Optional function module.
Excludes a particular server from further use for processing parallel processing tasks. Use in conjunction with SPBT_GET_PP_DESTINATION if you determine that a particular server is not available for parallel processing (for example, COMMUNICATION FAILURE exception if a server becomes unavailable).
·        WAIT: ABAP keyword
WAIT UNTIL
Required if you wish to wait for all of the asynchronous parallel tasks created with CALL FUNCTION to return. This is normally a requirement for orderly background processing. May be used only if the CALL FUNCTION includes the PERFORMING ON RETURN addition.
·        RECEIVE: ABAP keyword
RECEIVE RESULTS FROM FUNCTION Remotefunction
Required if you wish to receive the results of the processing of an asynchronous RFC. RECEIVE retrieves IMPORT and TABLE parameters as well as messages and return codes.
Managing Resources in Parallel Processing
You use the following destination additions to perform parallel execution of function modules (asynchronous calls) in the SAP system:
In a predefined group of application servers:
CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname
DESTINATION IN GROUP Groupname
In all currently available and active application servers:
CALL FUNCTION Remotefunction STARTING NEW TASK Taskname
DESTINATION IN GROUP DEFAULT
Sequential Processing
In the following cases, the system chooses sequential (non-parallel) processing:
●      In table RSADMIN, entry QUERY_MAX_WP_DIAG has value (column value) 1.
●      The entire query consists of one sub-access only.
●      The query is running in a batch process.
●      The query was started from the query monitor (transaction RSRT) using various debug options (for example, SQL query display, execution plan display). See, Dividing a MultiProvider Query into Sub-Queries.
●      The query requests non-cumulative key figures.
●      Insufficient dialog processes are available when the query is executed. These are required for parallel processing.
●      The query is configured for non-parallel processing.
●      You want to save the result of the query in a file or a table.
In Release SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the system can efficiently manage the large intermediate results produced by parallel processing. In previous releases, the system terminated when it reached a particular intermediate result size and proceeded to read data sequentially. This is no longer the case. Therefore, the RSADMIN parameter that was used in previous releases for reading a MultiProvider sequentially is no longer used.

What is difference between ESXi and vSphere?

Hi All,
Can anyone guide me to findout the difference between Esxi and vSphere?
Any link ? Any document?
Best Regards,
Ashish Barot.

Dear Ashish,
I use to get the same question when I started learning VMware. Let me make an attempt to convey my thoughts and let me know if they have helped you.
What is vSphere ?
vSphere is suite of products packaged shipped by VMware virtualization company, which includes products. Like VMware ESXi hypervisor, VMware vCenter Server, etc.
VMware ESXi ?
ESXi or hypervisor is bare metal OS which virtualizes x86 server hardware. You use ESXi ( OS ) installation media to install OS on top of hardware just like you install any other OS like Windows or Linux
Once you have VMware ESXi installed on a x86 server hardware I is ready to virtualized. What does it mean ? - It means you can now use same server to create , configure, run more than one virtual machines and install required Operating systems within Virtual Machines they are referred as Guest Operating systems which could be Windows or Linux etc
Further, vCenter server is another VMware Product shipped in vSphere bundle that helps you manage one or more ESXi servers from a centralized location.
I am hoping this answers your both queries.
Please let me know if that helps you and if you need any further clarification I will be glad to discuss with you further.
Virtually,
vAseem

A CONFUSION:The difference between cluster and multi-IP--DNS mapping??

          mapping??
          It is totally different. regarding the last failover example you've given,
          of course the 2 servers can have identical files maintained under
          public_html. DNS will failover requests to "foo.html" to the other one if
          the first server is down, but if you have something saved in a session, say
          shopping cart example, it's totally lost, but with WLS clustering, the
          session is replicated to the other server in the cluster, you may just
          check-out, don't have to order again.
          This is just a simple example of WLS cluster session-replication. WLS
          supports EJB, RMI Objects, JMS (6.0) clustering.. check the doc at

Difference between Recovery and Formatting?

What is the difference between Recovery and Formatting?
Do I need to download the tools and utilities to do the Recovery?

Hi again
I have Satellite M70 at home and it is the same notebook as yours. I presume you have a recovery DVD (like me) and you do not need other discs. If you want to install fresh and clean operating start your notebook and press F12 button. When the list of bootable devices is shown on the screen put delivered media into optical disc drive and choose CD/DVD drive as bootable device.
After doing this just follow the menu on the screen. How you want to install operating system?

REAL differences between STCMS and JMQ that can cause trouble?

hi *,
i wanted to start a collection of differences between STCMS and JMQ. before i was working with JMQ i had a very naive point of view and thought we would migrate to JMQ without having any difficulties besides administration process changes....
so far the bigest differences for me that i found until now are:
1) JMS properties are not allowed to start numerical like 1_firstJmsProp now they must be named like _1firstJmsProp
2) setting null values as property causes exceptions (i think it was JMSMessageFormatException or something like this..)
any other points you have found out till now?
regards chris

Hi Chris,
what I also found out and not really forces me to use JMQ in production is, that in eManager the Queues of the Sun_JMQ - message server can not really be addressed! I have a test-project running that pulls regularly data into that queue running on the Sun_JMQ, but when I go to the Sun_JMQ - entry in eManager, I only see the queue, but the eManager says it is an empty queue - no "Min Sequence Number", "Max Sequence Number", ... not even the "Last Published Date/Time" is set. So, in production you would not be able to see how many data was already processed and when the last message was sent!
I assume this is related to the way data is gathered from the JMS-server and maybe Sun uses the SeeBeyond implementation here?!
Funny is, that when you stop the receiver of the Sun_JMQ - queue, you at least see how many data are waiting in the queue to be processed and you can also take a look at the messages waiting!
Edit: What I just saw is, that when you look at the "Logging"-tab of the Sun_JMQ-server in eManager you see the log-entries of the stcms-server in there (so from the other JMS-server)?!?!
Just my 2 cents...

Questions about the differences between Arch and Chakra.

I'm trying to decide whether to install Arch or Chakra on my laptop. Currently, I'm running Arch on my desktop and Windows 7 on my laptop (which I plan to overwrite). My skill level with GNU/Linux is somewhat intermediate – noobs refer to me as an expert, experts refer to me as a noob. If it matters, I'm a KDE user and primarily use my computers for web browsing and python development. Anyway, I just wanted to get an objective opinion on the differences between Arch and Chakra. I have a few points that stand out to me, but I welcome any input.
-Stability
I started my journey into GNU/Linux with Debian back in 2009 due to it's stability. I really disliked Debian's ancient software and considered moving my system to Unstable. While doing some googling about Debian Unstable, I stumbled across Arch – it was love at first sight. I've been an Arch user ever since. I love the bleeding edge software, and haven't had any major problems since I originally installed it. However, every time I run a system update I cringe a little. While Arch hasn't broken on me yet, I've read plenty of horror stories and it makes me uneasy. I understand that Chakra is a mix between a point and rolling release model. Is it any more or less stable than Arch? I know there are other distrobutions out there, but I'm in love with the Arch philosophy.
-Security
Pretty self-explanatory, but is there any difference in security between the two?
-AUR
As much as I love Arch, I wouldn't be able to stand it if it weren't for the massive collection of software available in the AUR. While I'm perfectly capable of compiling software myself, I prefer to use a command like tool like yaourt to manage my software. I understand that Chakra doesn't officially support the AUR and that they have their own user repository. Seeing as Chakra is still relatively new, is it lacking? Will I miss the AUR as a Chakra user?
-Repositories
Is there much difference in the official repositories between the two distrobutions?

My take on Chakra is that it's the same as Arch with different developers. They use pacman. They have a different and rather nice build system for their developers. They're doing a good job, but I'd hate to give up the services of Allan McRae who must work full time keeping the Archlinux core and toolchain up to date. Chakra devs probably piggy-back off his work.
As for "semi" rolling: I don't see Chakra as having a stable core. A stable core sounds attractive, it would be like NetBSD which has a very stable core Unix operating system with apps added via pkgsrc. But Chakra's core and toolchain is at the same version levels as Archlinux most of the time and are no more tested and stabilized than ours. Their core packages are updated piecemeal just like ours; there is no stable core that is released as a unit (afaik). Today Chakra has gcc 4.7 / glibc 2.15 just like ours. Their kernel is a little more stable: they're using udev 181 / linux 3.2.8 while Arch is on udev 182 / linux 3.3.7. They are more conservative in upgrading xorg and the video drivers than Arch. For example, today they're on xorg-server 1.10.4 / intel video 2.17 while Arch is up-to-the-bleeding-edge-minute with xorg-server 1.12.1.902 and intel video 2.19. Yeah, I would consider Chakra to be a little more "stable" than Arch mainly because of their relaxed pace in changing the kernel and the xorg stuff.
Most of the patches that I look at for Arch packages (I build my system entirely from source and try to build monthly releases for myself) are needed because we use more recent core packages like glib2/glibc/gcc than the developers of higher level stuff like qt. Chakra is in the same situation. We're on the front of the wave
The Chakra CCR is compatible with the Arch AUR and mainly draws from AUR (an AUR buildscript will usually work fine on a Chakra system -- they just add one or two additional info fields.) With a little effort you could get any package installed on a Chakra system that is available on Arch.
