Different sized clips in the same sequence?

I have footage from various types of cameras with resolutions ranging from 640x480 to 720P in the same sequence.
1. What is the best size to set my sequence? At the size of the largest clip?
2. What else can I do to make the different sized clips work well in the same sequence (with the understanding that 640x480 is low res and poor quality)?
Thanks.

Hi Stanwelks,
1) No, especially since the 640x480 material you have is not of good quality (even if it was you'd lose quality by enlarging the images). Sounds like that converting the HD material to SD could be your best choice especially if you have more standard definition material than HD.
2)Keep it simple. Convert the HD material to DV and work on a DV timeline. This way you can match your sequence settings to one format, making sure you don't get to render all the time and that the lower res material is not going to look any worse.

  • Loading the different result sets in the same sequence for the target table

    Dear all,
    I have 5 tables say A,B,C,D as my source and i made 3 joins P,Q,R .the result sets of these 3 joins are loading into a target table X but with 3 different targets with same table name.
    I created one sequence say Y as my target table has primary key and mapped to three different targets for the same target table which i need to load.
    But after deployed and executed successfully ,i am able to load the data from three join result sets with differeent sequence numbers.
    I am looking to load data like this.
    If First Result set P has 10 Records,SEcond Result Set Q Has 20 and the third result set has 30 records then while loading data into first target it creates the seq for the 10 records from 1..10 and while loading the data for second result set ,it creates the sequence from 11 ...20 and while loading the third target with the third result set it creates the sequence from 21 ----30.
    But i am looking to load the three result sets in the sequence 1to 10 but not like creating fresh sequence for each result set.
    how can we achieve this in owb?
    any solution for this will be appreciated.
    thank you
    kumar

    My design is like following
    SRC1
    ---->Join1--------------------------->Target1( Table X)<-----Seq1
    SRC2
    SRC3
    ----> Join2----------->Target2(Table X)<----Seq1
    SRC4
    -----> Join3 -------> Target3(Table X)<-----Seq1
    SRC5
    Here the three 3 targets are for the same Table X as well sequence is same i.e seq1
    If the First Join has 10 rows ,Seq1 generates sequence in 1 to 10 while loading target1
    But while loading second target,Same Seq1 is generating new sequence from 11 but i am looking to load target2 and target 3 starting from sequence 1 but not from 11 or so.
    As per your comments :
    you want to load 3 sources to one target with same sequence numbers?
    yes
    Are you doing match from the other two sources on first source by id provided by sequence (since this is the primary key of the table)?
    No
    can you please tell me how to approach for this?
    Thank You

  • 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 zoom levels for different clips in the same project?

    Hi
    I am making a movie with videos from two different cameras. As a result some of the clips are cut down in size to a small portion of the screen. This can be solved if it is possible to use different zoom levels for different clips in the same project. I have not been able to do this. Is it possible?
    kind regards
    Soren

    You can scale the small clips up to the same size of the larger one... but you will get a quality loss.
    Using Motion or Scale to Frame Size commands
    Better to scale the large ones down to a Sequence that matches the smaller clip dimensions.

  • How to edit footage in the same sequence from two different cameras:  1) Standard Def 4:3 aspect ratio, and 2) Standard Def shot 16:9, anamorphic?

    What can I say.  We blew the shoot.  His high-end Sony camera - std def at 4:3 aspect ratio.
    My camera - the little Panasonic DVX100, set to anamorphic, so 16:9 aspect ratio.
    I have to edit this footage together in the same sequence.  Obviously, I'm getting prompts to change the sequence settings every time I try to move footage onto the timeline.
    Alternatively, would someone just thunk me in the head. 
    I'm sad about this.  I can't believe it happened.

    What is the ouput - standard 4:3 DV?
    If so, put a clip of the 4:3 material into a timeline and accept the offer to conform the timeline to that material. Then, any of the 16:9 material will be part of that settings - however - you will want to go into the DISTORT settings in the Viewer to alter the material so that the image extends beyond the sides (aka a center cut). It has been a long time since I've done this but I remember the number is something like 33 (or -33).

  • Can you avoid multiple clips of the same media in a project

    We have 2 suites and we sometimes work together on a common project utilising the same media.
    If I want to use a sequence from the other suite I can easily import it.
    The problem:  it creates another folder with clips that only belong to the imported sequence.
    The end result after a few imported sequences is that my final timeline has instances in it that
    are from clips belonging to several different folders or bins even though the media is the same.
    In summary... is there a way you can avoid having multiple clips of the same media in a project.
    Makes for a very messy project when you have finished.
    You've got multiple clips with the same name scattered everywhere.
    Cheers

    Not yet.
    I'm kind of hoping this type of media management will be vastly improved in CS6, whose main new 'feature' reeeeeally needs to be outstanding network collaboration with other editors working on the same project.

  • How can i export a series of images in different aspect ratios to the same height

    How can i export a series of images in different aspect ratios to the same height?
    I wish to make a slider callery for my website. all the images need to be 750 Pixels high, the width does not matter.  I have a mixture of square pandscap and protraite images can i do thing as one export or do i have to do it twice?  Once for long edge and once for shot edge?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can but there is a trick to it.
    In the Export Dialog under <Image Sizing> select Widdth & Height.
    Then enter 750 pixels for Height.
    Put your cursor into the Width field behind all the numbers that appear there and with the backspace key delete the numbers. If you enter "0" it will not accept that. But it accepts when you just delete the field for Width with the backspace key. The Width field will now be just blank.
    When you then export all image will  have a height of 750 pixels and the width will fall variously according to thne height / width ratio.
    Or alternatively you can enter 7.5" for height at a resolution of 100 ppi.

  • How to apply transitions between clips in the same track?

    Hey guys,
    I'm in Uni on Final Cut Pro 5 and all the videos and discussions tell of how to apply transitions between clips in the same track.
    I like to have my clips on different tracks so that I can overlap them at specific points but I don't know how to do this?
    If I have track one. . .which ends. . .and have track 2 beginning below that (and have it overlapped for a few seconds) I don't know how to enable the transition at the point where track 2 begins.
    Can anyone help?

    Yep I understand that.
    Let's say I overlap track 2 as I don't like the beginning of it. . .so I want the transition from the end of track one to track two to occur in the middle of track 2 - should I just trim the track to the point I want the transition to occur as opposed to have it overlapping?

  • 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 :-(

    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

    You can do that in FCPX too, as all the things you cited are listed separately in the inspector.
    Here's a little gotcha. Let's say you've color corrected a few clips and you've applied an effect to one and want to paste it the other clips. You switch off color correction and copy the clip. You select the other clips and paste effects. What do you think happens? The effect is applied, but the color correction is applied as well, only it's switched off as it was in the first clip, so all the color correction on the other clips is lost. Fun, eh?
    I'll try to replicate your gotcha - but no, that doesn't sound like fun at all!

  • 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?
