Different HD formats on the same timeline

Hi
I am currently editing a 6 camera HD project in FC Studio 2, I have footage that is 5D 1920x1080i H264, other footage is 1920x1080p prores, and then I have some footage that is 1920x1080i and the compression is 1440x1080 frame rates are 30frms some are 15frms.
My question: is there any way to edit the timeline with out needs only render. I have to synch clips by sound du to the fact that I have no matching TC so option p really wouldn't work. example some 10sec clips need 20 minutes to render, was just wondering if there was anyway to disable needs render until I finish the edit.
I hope that I explained this easily enough, I have a feeling that I'm just going to have to suffer through it.
Best,
S

You should probably convert all your media to a single format, like ProRes422,
with all the same frame rate. Create a new FCP project with the converted media
nicely imported and well-named.
Then use Media Manager to make lower-resolution proxies for editing
(FCP Manual IV-114). Start your mulitclip editing process by getting your
sync perfect. Take some extra time to verify that you've got it figured out.
As you edit using a multiclip, don't render the timeline. That disables
the multiclip editing function. If you need to render to check out your
work in detail, be sure to trash the render file before continuing to edit.
When you're done with the edit, use Media Manger to reconnect your
clips to the full-resolution version.

Problem with SQL*Loader and different date formats in the same file

DB: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
System: AIX 5.3.0.0
Hello,
I'm using SQL*Loader to import semi-colon separated values into a table. The files are delivered to us by a data provider who concatenates data from different sources and this results in us having different date formats within the same file. For example:
...;2010-12-31;22/11/1932;...
I load this data using the following lines in the control file:
EXECUTIONDATE1 TIMESTAMP NULLIF EXECUTIONDATE1=BLANKS "TO_DATE(:EXECUTIONDATE1, 'YYYY-MM-DD')",
DELDOB TIMESTAMP NULLIF DELDOB=BLANKS "TO_DATE(:DELDOB, 'DD/MM/YYYY')",
The relevant NLS parameters:
NLS_LANGUAGE=FRENCH
NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=FRENCH
If I load this file as is the values loaded into the table are 31 dec 2010 and 22 nov *2032*, aven though the years are on 4 digits. If I change the NLS_DATE_FORMAT to DD/MM/YYYY then the second date value will be loaded correctly, but the first value will be loaded as 31 dec *2020* !!
How can I get both date values to load correctly?
Thanks!
Sylvain

This is very strange, after running a few tests I realized that if the year is 19XX then it will get loaded as 2019, and if it is 20XX then it will be 2020. I'm guessing it may have something to do with certain env variables that aren't set up properly because I'm fairly sure my SQL*Loader control file is correct... I'll run more tests :-(

How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
Have fun.

Different Date Formats in the same "From"

Hello
We used different date formats depending on the users language.
In a report this is simple to implement ... read the date field twice (in different formats dd/mm/yyyy and mm/dd/yyyy) and display only one based on the language.
I want to be able to do the same in a "form" which updates a date. In this case the about is not allowed.
Has anyone have solution for this using "APEX" forms or do a need to write a process to achieve this?
Thanks
Pete

Pete,
You don't specify what version of Application Express you're using, so I'll assume APEX 3.1 or later.
Are you setting the date format yourself, based upon the user's language?
1) You could have the application's language derived from Browser, and then APEX would automatically set the NLS_LANGUAGE and NLS_TERRITORY settings accordingly. Then, I would simply use 'DS' as the Application Date Format. For Date Pickers on a form, I would use item type 'Date Picker (use Application Date Format)'.
2) If you're already determining the date format yourself and you don't want APEX to do it for you, ensure that you are setting this value in an application item (e.g., PETE_DATE_FORMAT). Then, you could still use Application Date Format with a value of &PETE_DATE_FORMAT. (inclusive of the trailing period).
When you use Application Date Format, the conversion should happen automatically for you so that you don't have to code this yourself on the Form.
I hope this helps.

URGENT: XML-SQL: Error parsing different date formats in the same XML file.

Hi Everyone,
I have a big problem while using the XML-SQL utility. I have a XML file with different date formats. I get exception like the one below.
"oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: 'java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date:"
And the XML file is :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<Info Key="ID">
     <Insert>
          <ID>1</ID>
          <BookingDate>10.12.2001</BookingDate>
          <OpeningTime>19:16</OpeningTime>
     </Insert>
</Info>
I have tried using different setDateFormat which is contrary.
sav.setDateFormat("d.M.y");
sav.setDateFormat("H:m:s");
Can someone help me on the same.
Thanks in advance.
Subramanian.

You might have to describe the columns as varchar then modify the table to the right format.

How to use different video formats in the one timeline?

Hi everyone,
So I am in the middle of stringing together a rough cut for a surf flick/documentary shot in some remote Indonesian islands…
Things so far are going well, but I am slightly confused regarding the best way to tackle a slight issue (hopefully slight!) of video format compatibility.
The main shooting for the film was done with .mov video format and this has been imported/captured into final cut pro 7 using the correct settings, which has now formed the basis for my rough cut.
However, I did a lot of filming with some other cameras (underwater, POV etc) and so also have some crucial footage in different formats that to my knowledge will not be compatible with the timeline that I have already created in FCP.
The files are as following:
AVI
MOD
MP4
I am assuming the best way to go about things is convert all these different files into a compatible form that I can then drop straight into my existing timeline.
Unfortunately, I am just beginning to learn the more techy aspects of editing and I don’t have the first idea of how to go about doing this…?
Any helpful feedback would be greatly appreciated…
Thanks in advance,
m

Although there are kinds of standard workflows for best quality in final product, it helps to know a bit more about your setup... what is your primary format? Without knowing that, the best way forward is to convert all of your footage to Apple ProRes. Especially the MP4 stuff. There are different ways about doing that, but I personally recommend Compressor. This can take some time depending on the amount and lengths of your shots, but it is well worth the process.
Make sure you choose 48k / 16bit AIF for all of your shots that have audio. If some of your footage is 1080p and some is 720p, I personally leave that alone because when you have this type of a difference in footage, I like to set my sequence to 720p giving me the option to move or pan the 1080p clips inside of the 720p sequence. Final Cut Pro is very good at handling that difference.
Hope the edit goes well; sounds like a nice project!

I am having trouble getting a numbers spreadsheet to hold different formats in the same column. A column with a date formatted heading will not convert to $ for the cells below.   Any suggestions would help.

Hi Wayne,
Thank you for this response. I have tried this but when I start enterring $ amounts some, such as $6.00, go in OK others such as $4.00 appear as a date ie 4 Oct 12.
Kind regards

Capture scratch in different formats in the same project

I was asked to edit several hours of wedding video that have two different formats in capture scratch. All are Quick time movie. Can I combine the following formats in the same project and sequences, or what steps do I need to take before I start the project? Any suggestions on the proper Easy Set Up "format" and "use" selection? Thanks for the help.
First format-
DV 720x480 (853x480), 16 bit interger(Big Endian), mono 48kHZ
FPS 29.95
Data rate 30.29 Mbit/s
Current size 853x480 pixels (actual)
Second format-
DVCPro HD (720p60), 960x720(1248x702), 16 bit interger (Big Endian), mono 48 kHz
FPS 23.98
Data rate 49.11 Mbit
Current size 1248x702 ixels (actual)

DVCPRO HD is not supported in FCE. The HD media is of course much larger than the SD media, so you have to decide how to handle that. Also the frame rate conversion might not be great.

What is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

what is the best way to deal with different audio sample rates on the same timeline ?

You don't have to do anything special. If possible, start your project with a clip that has the desired target frame rate and audio sample rate, and your project parameters will be set automatically. Other sample rates will be converted under the covers.
For example, if your video is shot at 48khz, you can add music files at 44.1khz with no problem.
If you are recording audio that you want to synch with video (multicam), you will get best results if everything is 48khz, but you can use 44.1 if that is all you have. Once I forgot to reset my Zoom to 48,000 and it still worked.

Hi,
You can't use family sharing or multiple Apple IDs with iTunes match.
ITunes match is only attached to Apple id that you used to subscribe.

How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?

How to sync 2 different Mac users using the same Apple ID and with out mixing each other info?
We are two people using three difrent Macs, 1 Iphone and 1 Ipad with separate USERS on each Mac but sharing the same Apple ID: xxxxxx
I set up the first user to iCloud and it was OK but when I set up the second user to use iCoud the first users's info gets mixed with the second user's info?
Do we have to set up a diffrent Apple ID for each other?
Sometime ago I added my friends E mail (yyyyy) to the main Apple ID (xxxx) as for using his E mail account (to separate our e mail accounts, and it's working ok) but now when I try to create a new apple ID whith the same friend's e mail (yyyyyy) it says that his mail (yyyyy) is already an apple ID when the Apple ID is really my E mail (xxxxx)... any clue?
Thanks

I believe because you migrated from a Nokia to an iPhone you need to register the Bn phone number with your Apple ID so it can be used for iMessage. The Pn number seems to be the only one registered
Go here > https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
Manage your Apple ID and see if that does the trick
Hope that helps

TS3510 I have 3 different apple devices using the same Apple ID and would like to use FaceTime to call from one device to the other. Do I need a different Apple ID for one of the devices in order to do that?

I have 3 different apple devices (iPod Touch, iPad and MacBook Pro) using the same Apple ID and would like to use FaceTime to call from one device to the other. Do I need a different Apple ID for one of the devices in order to do that?

I found this on a related question in the Community:
Yes you can do it. I do it with 4 different devices all using the same Apple ID.
You need to associate different email addresses for each device in order to use those email addresses as the "contact at" email address. The reason the calls are dropping on you now is that what you are trying to do is like calling yourself on your own phone.
You can also create new iCloud accounts on each device simply to use for FaceTime, but I'm guessing that the users of the other two devices have their own email addresses which will make this work for you quite easily.
Take a look at this for more information.
The seems to go against what Gail said and the issue you raised about buying dup apps was my first concern. If this other post is correct, how to I set a different "contact at" in the iPod Touch?

Do you need to use an email as an apple ID? We have a family email which is currently the apple ID so I can keep track of purchases but i have 2 iPhones and 2 itouches. Can all 4 devices have different apple ID under the same email address. Also I wanted to know because for the game center we wanted to keep track of each individual not just o e account. DID I MAKE SENSE

Figured it out. Thanks.
