DVD Start/Stop and Subclips

Question: In my browser I have double clicked a clip, it opens in the viewer, I then go to >View>DVD start/stop and the markers are inserted. Once I go back to the browser and highlight the markers and go to Modify>make subclips, FCP will only convert about 27 or 28 of the markers to subclips, when there is actually over 100 markers. Is there a maxium limit on the number of markers that can be converted or that will appear in the browser list? Hope I am clear.

I've done it both ways, not sure which is easier.
HDV capture creates individual clips (individual media files) based on the detected start/stop and uses a name you specify at the initiation of the capture appending a sequence number to the end of the name for each new clip. S/S detect always uses the name "Segment". Like the Segment clips, HDV clips are in natural order, as you say. I'm guessing that the file system is smart enough to consider the entire number at the end of a name, but sorts character by charcter if the number is in the middle of the name.
Just seems a little short sighted to use different naming conventions for essentially the same function, especially when it causes the files to be out of order.

  • Start, stop and restart while loops

    Hi, my qustion is i have 2 example a and example b. Example b lets u start counting up in seconds when u want to. as long as the toggle switchs are in correct position. it also lets u start, stop and restart if need be. i want to be able to that with example a, but for some reason the while loop always sets of running independent of what position the the toggle switch. Any help greatly appreciated.

  • Shell script to start, stop and restart a JAR

    Hi everyone,
    Does anyone have idea to write a shell script to start, stop and restart a JAR under linux? it can indicate a method or parameter? Thanks!
    this JAR inculdes a class with main method like this:
    public class Client(){
      public Client(String name){
      public void stopClient(){
      public static void main(String[] args){
         new Client("/tmp/text.log");
    }

    Does anyone have idea to write a shell script to
    start, stop and restart a JAR under linux? That part isn't really clear.
    Start would be java -jar myjar.jar.
    Stop could either be kill, which kills the whole process; kill -TSTP, which suspends the process, or some application-specific communication such as sending something over a port; or putting something into a file or something.
    Restart could just be the same as start (if stop is just kill); kill -CONT, if stop was kill -TSTP; or some other app-specific communication.

  • How to start, stop and restart task

    Hello Everyone,
    Need advice on what is the correct way to start, stop and restart a Java task?
    I have tried with Executors.newCachedThreadPool() or fixedThreadPool() however I was only able to submit the task once. My program crashed when i tried to resubmit the task again after a shutdownnow command()

    Tasks are designed to be run once. If you want restart functionality, use a service:
    http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2/api/javafx/concurrent/Service.html
    The sample service I posted in the following thread demonstrates how to do this:
    Multithreading
    Use of Executors is not necessary as a Service encapsulates the execution thread management (though you can set your own executor on the service if you really needed it). All you need to do is make use of the service start, cancel, restart and reset methods as required. If you do use the cancel method, then you need to make sure that your service is properly interrupt aware for the cancel to function as you expect.

  • Sending FCP5 'DV Start/stop detected' subclips to shake...

    Hi all, I wonder if any of you Shake users could help with a problem I'm experiencing....
    I tend to import my DV footage into FCP5 by using the 'Capture Now' option to capture the entire tape from the cam, then use the 'Detect DV Start/Stop' function to mark the master clip, then make subclips from that. A fairly standard process.
    Now, my problem is this:
    When I send clips from the timeline to Shake, everything seems to work as it should, with Shake starting a script using my clips....only it's not the 'subclips' I sent that appear in Shake, it's always the beginning of the Master Clip that the subclips were derived from.....although Shake IS recognising the relevent timings from the subclips.
    Example: If I send two subclips to Shake, one 60 frames long and one 120 frames long, Shake will open two 'file-in' nodes correctly but one will contain 60 frames from the START of the Master Clip and the other will contain 120 frames from the START of the Master Clip and NOT the frames of the subclips.
    Bizarrely though, once the 'file-out' node has been rendered and linked back to FCP5, the clip Shake has created in the timeline DOES contain the correct frames from the subclips.
    I've tried converting the subclips to master clips in FCP5 but this makes no difference, the same thing still happens.
    Trying to analyse what's happening, I suspect the problem is with Shake not being able to recognise the 'markers' FCP5 is using to identify it's own subclips, but I'm not sure if there's a way to get round this. My own solution has been to export the clips out to the desktop, then import them manually into Shake. It works, but obviously adds extra processes to the workflow.
    I hope this explanation makes sense to you all.
    Regards.

  • DVD start menus and books for beginners

    I would like to make a custom start menu using a jpg graphic and my own music.  It would just have 2 options start video and scene selection.
    I was fumbling around with PE11 yesterday and did it by accident.  I added the picture and then added the audio with drag and drop....but when I tried to do it again, I could not remember what I selected.
    Also is there a good book for beginners?
    Thanks,
    Matt

    Pending further information, this is what I came up with using
    Premiere Elements 11 Windows
    General/Grid
    and its matrix_pal_s_mm.psd (for main menu) and its matrix_pal_s_sm.psd (for scene menu)
    My Photoshop Elements is presently not allowing me to open the Photoshop Layer Sets in the .psd files, so I picked the above theme so I could get around having to do that.
    This is the first try result
    Main Menu....
    Scene Menu
    I tried it out in a DVD-VIDEO standard on DVD, and it did not look that bad.
    My advice is to look at the theme as is to see what it is all about, and, if interested in getting a look like above, I will give you the step by step. But, you will need Photoshop Elements or Photoshop for the background exchanges. I did not find a theme where I could get a clean enough background replacement with just the customization within the Movie Theme section of the program. Again, Photoshop Elements that will not open the Layers Sets is OK in this instance since we are not opening any Layers Sets, we are just replacing backgrounds at the .psd level rather than within the project.
    If interested, I will post further details which should be quick and easy to follow.
    Thanks.

  • How start, stop and access BAM?

    Hi,
    I have installed BAM and now I do not know how to start and stop the application. Also I am not able to access to the home page.
    I installed BAM by double clicking the setup.exe file. After following all the installation steps, a new folder has been created in my C drive (C:\OracleBAM). Inside that folder, there is another one called ClientForBAM. Should I have other folder besides the client? Inside the ClientForBAM there are lots of folders.
    In the Windows Start menu I have a new group called Oracle_ClientForBAM32100. From there, I can access to:
    - Configuration and Migration Tools
    - Desarrollo de Aplicaciones (sql plus)
    - Herramientas de Configuracion y de Migracion (Net manager)
    - Herramientas de Gestion Integradas (Wallet Manager)
    - Oracle Instalation Products
    So, there is no menu option to start, stop or access to BAM. I've read documentation about this and saw that the home url was: http://simge-eai-dev:8081/oraclebam (my host is simge-eai-dev, and my port 8081) But when I type that url in my browser I get the following error:
    Error HTTP 404 - No se encontró el archivo o directorio. (file or directory not found)
    Servicios de Internet Information Server (IIS)
    I looked at the logs and I found this in the sqlnet.log
    Fatal NI connect error 12514, connecting to:
    DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=simge-eai-dev)(PORT=1521))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME=SIMGE)(CID=(PROGRAM=C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin\nmupm.exe)(HOST=SIMGE-EAI-DEV)(USER=SYSTEM))))
    This in the operf10.log

    Can anybody help me with this? How can I know if the BAM is running or not?
    Thanks in advance,
    Zaloa

    Finally I found out what was happening.
    Only the client was installed because in order to install the whole thing, it is necessary to execute the setup file twice.
    The first time, the client is installed and the second time, the server.

  • Start Stop and Run button.

    hello,
    I have one question, I want one button which can be run/start/stop button. I can't compile the program with "Run when open", because I need the user enter a string and a configuration, however after the user enter a configuration, I want that a START button, and when the user want press the same button to STOP all the program. All without pressing the "Run button (white arrow)". So the sequence it will be:
    1- open the ".exe"
    2- configure the variables such as: file name, file path, comments.....
    3- press START button, and the system will start acquisition.
    4- press STOP button and the program stopped and save all the data in a file.
    It is that possible? Could anyone help me with it? Or send me and example?
    Best regards,
    Anna.  

    Hi,
    You can do something like this.
    Compile it with "Run when open".

  • How do I start, stop and restart a sequence with a periodic input?

    Hi,
    I have written some code that will monitor my com port (rs-232) continuously for an ASCII character (in this case a 'P'). When the P is received, I want a sequence structure to start working. The P will only appear once for a short while, but the sequence should carry on running until it finishes all the frames. On the next time a P appears on my monitor, I want to either stop the sequence structure regardless of which frame its in and restart the sequence from the beginning again or to run the sequence from the start again if it has already completed all the frames.
    What sort of structure do I need to do this, are there any examples?
    James

    James,
    Indiana is correct, my take on this is similiar.
    If you have a 3 element sequence structure for example which runs if 'P' is returned from your COMs thread, you will need to query a variable in each element of the sequence in order to suspend execution of the next/remaining elements in the sequence if this event occurs. You can do this by reading the variable that your COMs thread sets using a case structure in each element of your sequence. In order to re-run your sequence if 'P' is returned during the execution you can simply set the suspend variable and ensure the code is in a while loop to recall the code.
    See the attached example code/screen shot:
    This is however not an elegant solution and the best way would probably be using the events structure and a user event to queue the P events. This is available in 6.1 but I believe its the professional package. See also my implementation using this method, again attached below:
    Hope this helps,
    Kind Regards

  • Dvd starts playing and skips the menu's

    I have a problem what i have not seen before. When i burned the DVD and play it in a DVD player it starts directly with the footage, it skips the menu's. I have burned the same DVD before, than it was OK, added some more footage, rebuild it again, but no menu's. In DVDSP it works fine in the simulator. Any idea's?

    If you look at the Graphical view of your menus and tracks, any first play item will have this circular symbol in the top left corner.
    If it hasn't, ctrl click it and select "First Play" from the contextual menu.

  • Shell script for start stop and restart standard

  • Edit Cluster Start-stop- and Monitor-Scripts via Bash?

    Hi,
    is there a way to edit (and sync!) the Cluster-Scripts via CLI?
    Regards
    Bernd

    The short answer is no. The scripts are stored in eDir, and NCS keeps revisions of them internally. The best place to edit them is iManager. Alternatively, you can directly change the eDir attributes for those scripts while cluster is down.
    That said, everything that iManager does comes in through a file interface. If you goal is to script resource modification, you can always access the file interface directly.

    The DVD i have created plays and stops when i am watching one of my video tracks, i just can not start the DVD when i am previewing in any menue after i stop it.
    I have created my DVD with 16 menus and 2 video tracks. It burns and plays back fine but i can not stop and start the DVD when i am in a menu mode. The DVD will stop and play when i stop the DVD playing video from one of my video tracks but when i am in menu i push stop on my DVD controller and the DVD will not start back up. The DVD will look like it wants to play but it will not play. I have to open the DVD player tray open in order for it to start the DVD again.
