Do I need to render before saving?

Hi,
Do I need to render the video before the final render in the output format I want?
As I add titles and effects, I'm currently rendering the video - primarily because it's easier for me to work on the project if I can watch smoother video. At the end, I go to the share tab and render the project in the final format that I want e.g. mpg, etc.
I'm trying to see if I can speed up my workflow by skipping the intermediate renders before the final one. Or do I still need to keep rendering to prepare the footage for the final render?
Thanks,
Sam

No you don't. You don't really even have to render while you are working on the project.
Note that when you render only the area under Work Area Bar is rendered so, if you need to render an area because you want a better view of a transition or effect, you can set the Work Area Bar to cover only that area of your timeline, and then PRE will render only that area.
Cheers,
Neale

Do I need to render before Compressor?

Sorry about this newbie question. After coming back from Color, my timeline has the red lines on top of the clips. Do I need to render before to straight export via Compressor ? Or is Compressor sort of does the render? thx.

It makes no difference whether you render or not because FCP hands over the raw frames to Compressor. Compressor ignores all FCP render files.

Do I need to render before exporting?

I have just put together a small project with three sequences in it. Nothing crazy, renders in about an hour on a PB G4/1Ghz. My question though — do I need to render before exporting to a Quicktime movie? Or will it render automatically before exporting?
Thanks,
Kristin.

On a PB/G4, an hour isn't that bad. I started editing on Sawtooth G4s, and had render times of 2-3 hours for not much video. Of course, it all depends on titles, layers, effects, etc.
Well, if you think about it, exporting a movie to Quicktime IS rendering. I don't think FCP is going to stick a blue "Unrendered" box in, or encode at Dynamic RT quality when making a movie file.

Do I need to render before export?

Coming from the old video software, this was the case. However, now I have background rendering turned off. Do I need to manually render before I export the video, in order to get the color grades, transitions, etc? Or does export automatically render it for me?

Never thought about that....
OK, for 'real time'-playback of such a scene
made of six green screens stapled together,you have to render.
… if you're using just one extHDD, connected via usb3... (we're on a small budget)
For scenes with less demand of computation power, like this…
no rendering needed.....
(pics from one of our school projects…)
but habitual rendering...c'mon, fellas, seriously ??

Error exporting... Says I need to render but I already have!

When I go to export my project as an MPEG 2, red bars appear over the timeline as if I haven't rendered and I get a message telling me that I need to render before exporting. I have rendered the project so I have no idea what the problem is. It will let me export the project as a Qucktime movie.
Thanks for your help!

for export to MPEG2 you need to render everything ... even th ebits that fcp can playback in full res without rendering
go to you sequence render menu and make sure that even "Full" has a checkmark , then render again.
this time it should work

Pop up Window before saving remembering the need (forcing) to fill required fields in a form

Hi!
I searched the "old" forum and have very good help from UVSAR but unfortunately I'm not able to access my message sent to that forum anymore.
[I could never thank all the people who answered because I keep receiving "Your submission has triggered the spam filter and will not be accepted.""]
I've have never use Java scripts in my life: I started about three days ago.
1) I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro X (Windows 7)
2) I've created a form using Microsoft Word and save it as a pdf file.
3) After I created a form using Acrobat Pro X;
3.1.) This form it's not going to be submitted over Internet. It will be send by e-mail to some persons. They will receive it, fill in the form and send it back to me via e-mail. Note: I will save it with extended rights in order to allow to be read with acrobat reader (I'm the only one of the group having Professional edition).
4) In that form I've created some text fields (for now it's just what I need - no radio buttons, dropdown
menus, and so...)
5) Choosed Properties and marked 7 fields as "required";
6) Used a script I found in here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/784322 (thank you for the authors of the thread)
if (!event.target.valueAsString) {
app.alert("My text My text", 3);
7) This script allows me to remember people to fill that 7 specific fields (when using mouse or tab).
8) So... What I really need? Here are the reasons for my request for help:
8.1.) When people use the Acrobat Reader Save button (not a button I created inside the form) it will pop up an alert message. Users will receive a pop up window telling them they need to fill those fields before saving the form and send it back to me. Can someone share a script, please? Thanks in advance.
8.2.) Is there a way to colorize the fileds that need to be filled? Again I only learned where to insert a java script yestaerday sou I'm not able to write one. I'm sorry for my newbie questions.
8.3.) Last question: In one of the fields there will be an e-mail address. On the end of the form I want to create a button like "Send by e-mail" and When someone press that button the e-mail will be sent to the address that was written in the earlier specific field. How can I do this (link a button to an e-mail address in a specific field)? Can someone help me with a script or ideas? Hope I was clear.
8.1.) UVSAR sent me the following code that works fine untill I save the document for the first time. Affter that he never shows me pop up window again.
var isFilled = true;
for (var i=0;i < this.numFields;i++){
var f = this.getNthFieldName(i);
if (this.getField(f).required && !this.getField(f).valueAsString) isFilled = false;
if (!isFilled) app.alert("You must complete all the required fields");
8.3.) With the help of UVSAR I used:
var mailto = this.getField('emaddr').valueAsString;
if (mailto!='') this.mailForm({ bUI:true, cTo:mailto, cSubject:"This is the subject", cMsg: "This is the body of
the mail." });
else app.alert("Cannot submit form until the email address field is completed");
but gives me an error (Note: I named the filed with e-mail "emaddr")
Once again Thank you so very very much to all the kind people who take their time to share knowledge...
I'm not a native speaker, sorry for some errors
Best regards
AC

CS4 - Does one need to Premiere render before Encore transcode?

Production Suite CS4
Question: Does one need to Premiere render before Encore transcode?
I have an Encore asset which is dynamically linked to a Premiere sequence. Do I need to render the sequence in Premiere before transcoding it in Encore i.e. is Premiere rendering necessary? Thanks in advance.

Adobe Encore technical support told me that Encore will not automatically render the Premiere sequence. You must manually render the sequence in Premiere before transcoding in Encore.

LiveCycle ES3: need 3 fields to match before saving or printing form

Hi!
I have a form that contains different numfields that need to match before the user should be able to save or print the document.
These are the fields that the user have to fill in:
A = Total sum of people (one field) should be equal to the sum of B-H and I-O.
B-H = Seven different fields (in a group) where the sum of all seven fields should be equal to A (and the sum of I-O)
I-O = Seven different fields (in a group) where the sum of all seven fields should be equal to A (and the sum of B-H)
All fields are Numeric Fields and User Entered - Required
When these fields do not match I want a messagebox to popup with that info and when Ok button is pressed it should return to the form again.
If the fields match no messagebox should popup and the document should continue to save (or print).
This means that you can't compare the fields until the user want to save or print the form...
I use Formcalc in Livecycle and I it would be nice if someone can help med with the code!
Thanks in advance!

Yes, you would use completely different code. Here is a simple example that enables two text fields after the text field to which it is attached has a value (isn't blank):
// Validate script for text field
(function () {
    // Get references to the subsequent fields to control
    var f1 = getField("other_text_field1");
    var f2 = getField("other_text_field2");
    // Reset the fields
    f1.value = f1.defaultValue;
    f2.value = f2.defaultValue;
    if (event.value) { // Show the fields if this field is not blank
        f1.display = display.visible;
        f2.display = display.visible;
    } else { // Otherwise, hide the fields
        f1.display = display.hidden;
        f2.display = display.hidden;
Note that the script can be simplified if you use a heirarchical naming convention for the subsequent fields. We discussed a similar situation just yesterday at: http://acrobatusers.com/forum/forms-acrobat/set-form-skip-question-depending-answer-anothe r
so you could look there for more information on this approach.

Needing to render PAL-DV in FCP????

Hi,
I had my Sony PC109 stolen and bought a Sony HC26 to replace it temporarily.
Have started to import from it though in FCP and even though both capture settings and sequence settings are DV-PAL 48 KHz, I still have to render straight, unaltered video with effects or anything.
I checked on the camera to make sure it wasn't recording in wide 9:16 mode or anything and it is in standard 4:3.
Basically, whenever I put anything in the timeline, it has a big red line above it indicating I need to render the video. (the audio is fine)
If anyone could help I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Crazy

Go to the FINAL CUT PRO Menu and choose EASY SETUP. Choose the DV/PAL option.
Delete Sequence 1. Or any other sequence you have in the Browser. These will have the OLD settings...the ones in place BEFORE you chose the proper Easy Setup.
Create a new sequence. This sequence will have the new settings and should work just fine with your DV/PAL footage.

Print Preview of PO before saving .

Dear Experts ,
Is it possible to view a print preview of a PO after just checking the PO & before saving it ??
If yes pls let me know how ?
Regards
Anis

Hi Anis,
yes, you can view a PO in print preview in ME21N before saving it but the following are pre-requisities:
1 - There are valid messages defined for the PO - check by clicking on 'Messages' at the top of the screen. So long as there is a message defined, you can display, if not, add the output type that you would like to use (NEU for example).
2 - The output type must be pointing correctly to a printer or valid e-mail address (for e-mail outputs)
3 - You must have access to transaction ME9F in authorisations - although you are not navigating to ME9F, you will still need the access
If these things are OK, click on print preview and you will get an image of what the printed document will look like.

Net value of sales order before saving in VA01

Hi there,
I'm currently working with the transaction VOFM whereby i need to get the <b>net value</b> of the current sales order in order to compare with a deposit value which the customer has made.
a condition type is activated whenever the net value is < the deposit which the customer makes,i.e when sy-subrc EQ 0.
My problem is that the routine in VOFM(where i have added my code),is triggered before i save the order, hence all i get as net value is always 0.00. That routine is again triggered after i save as well, but it doesnt work as i expected even if i get the net value then.
I have in fact used the routine USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP of include MV45AFZZ, where i could get the net value from the field XVBAK-NETWR <b>after saving the order</b>.
i thought that now it gets the right value, it'l work as expected but the fact that the VOFM routine is triggered before saving(hence net value 0.00), the condition type doesn't change after i save.
Hence, my condition type is not being applied properly because the condition type is being activated already when it get the net value 0.00.
Can anyone please tell me if there is a way to get the net value before saving?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Meenakshi

Hi,
I have in fact used export flag to memory in FORM USEREXIT_PRICING_PREPARE_TKOMP from which i get the net value after saving.
In fact, i have figured out the problem but still cannot solve it.
What happens i that the VOFM routine is triggered more than once, hoewever, the first time it is triggered, i still havent got that net value. In this pass, when the routine ends, sy-subrc eq 0. Upon the next pass to the VOFM routine, i set sy-subrc to 4(condition type not activated), however the result is wrong. The condition type is activated still.
if i do the contrary, i.e set sy-subrc to 4 on the first pass to VOFM routine and then set sy-subrc to 0 second time(condition type needs be activated), the condition type is not activated.
what i dont understand is why the VOFM routine is only keeping the initial value of sy-subrc?Any ideas?
Also, am doing my validations and setting sy-subrc in the form kobev_900.
Am not using the form kobed_900 at all. Does this make a difference?
Also, how can i do the validation only when repricing was called form SAVE process?How do i put the condition?
Thanks for the help.

Check on vendor email address change before saving PO

Hi All,
I need to check Is there any change in Vendor Email address in PO before
saving. I am trying to find userexits.
I found some like EXIT_SAPMM06E_012, But here I am not getting complete
Vendor address...
Req: I am maintaing multiple email address for Vendor at PO header level.
Here is the path: PO Header --> Address tab --> Click on Address Details
--> Here we can maintain(Insert/ Delete/Change) multiple e mail address.
So I need to check is there any change in email address before saving.
Could you please any body help me on this....
Thanks
Rays

Hello Rays,
One base question,
Are you going to check the vendor email address manually before saving the PO?
The vendor address in the puchase order is copied from the vendor master so you can maintain email address (single or multiple) in the vendor master before creating the purchase order. At the time of purchase order creation/save, you can change the default email address and use this to trigger PO to vendor.
By the way, user exit EXIT_SAPMM06E_012 (Check Customer-Specific Data Before Saving) is used for custom field not for SAP std field.
Hope this helps.

Ho to Generate the Numeric Values Automatically before saving the records

Hello to everybody,
I have a data block naming “BILL” consisting of the following 3 field.
1. Sr_No
2. Bill_Amount
3. Description
This Data Block consist 10 records at a time.
I want that whenever I insert records in the above data block.
Serial No should automatically be generated.
For this I have applied the following code in “WHEN-NEW-ITEM-INSTANCE” trigger.
<CODE>
SELECT NVL(MAX(Sr_No),0)+1 INTO :BILL.Sr_No FROM BILL;
</CODE>
Whenever I insert records in the BILL data block, the first row automatically generates the “Sr_No”, but when I move to the next record, (remember currently I have not saved the record), the same value which appeared in the previous record appears in the Sr_No field.
For example, when I insert records for the first time in the BILL, the Sr_No field automatically generates value “1”, but when I move to the next record while not saving the first record the next row still generating value “1”, while it should be value “2” and so on.
Note that I want that before saving the previous record when I move to the next row, the Sr_No should generate the next continuous value like in example.
Please help me to solve out this problem.

You have practically scratched you left ear with your right foot while jumping on the left foot :-)
Seriously, you guys don't need to go to all this trouble.
If you want a serial number incrementation, all you need to do is to either select the max value + 1 from the table or select the next value from a sequence in an PRE-INSERT trigger on block level, and that's it!!!!

Do I need to render after finished editing in FCE?

I'm finishing my very first FCEHD3.5 project (the whole audio & video editing part). DO I HAVE TO RENDER ANYTHING befor recording to the camera, using the method that you described?
(I used some photos in my project and they look "funny" while played from the timeline and watched in the canvas; photos are funny in terms of flickering, moving pixels along edges of objects, etc. - would any rendering help with this?).
And, in general - what about the rendering? -(this is my 1st project, so I have no experience there)Do I need to render anything? Or should I just print to camera, and find a way to burn the project in iDVD..?
MacBook Pro 17 inch Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2GB RAM, 100GB7200HD, Super Drive, FCEHD3.5, PanasonicPVGS500, G-Raid ExtHD320GB

The easiest way to do this is, first make sure you don't have any clips at all selected in the timeline, then just do the Render All > Video and the Render Only > Mixdown. FCE will take care of things from there.
The length of time it takes to render the video depends on a whole lot of factors ranging from what kinds of effects/generators you used in your clips, how many there are, how long they are, whether or not any are already rendered, etc. plus all the hardware specs/capabilites of your Mac ... all of which makes it really hard to estimate how much time it will take.
Mixdown audio takes all your audio tracks and builds an 'audio render' file that contains 1 stereo pair resulting from all your audio tracks. It goes a lot faster than rendering video does ... and btw helps reduce/eliminate problems with dropped frames.
Your MacBookPro has great specs, you should find this goes pretty well, but I still really can't estimate your render time. Take a look at your timeline - over how much of it does the red 'needs rendering' indicator line show? That would give you some indication - at least short vs. long.
Good luck!
