Export problem in a red work flow.

For our latest show we made some background material and we gave it a light grading in FCP. The material is in Redcode. Now I get a problem. If I export it the film looks just very bad with all edges all slightly squary.
Since the original Redcode is progressive 25 fps it can't be field error. I have changed codec from Redcode to different sorts from AIC to Prorez and no compression. Selfcontained QT as well as all diffrent presets on the compressor
The part of the film that is graded gets bad and the non graded is ok.
If I export graded as QT selfcontained and just current the film turns grey as in no RENDER.
What to do?
Leif

Well it seems worse than I thought (or in a way more general). I guess something very easy needs to be done. We can't export anything with a graded filter without getting very, very obvious low resolution.
Redcode, Prores and other codecs don't matter. Rendering is of course done.. as long as it has any kind of filter the result is awful.
Help!

Hi Experts,

1. Data entry from - User1
2. Verification. - User2 - Multiple Users.
3. Post - User3
Requirement: I need to start GP workflow from webdynpro application, i am able start a GP from webdynpro static users.
Problem: I am not able assign dynamically users( Context parameter mapping to role).
If i assign(User) role at before starting process from coding i am able to start a process, if i select context parameter and without assign user it is giving exception like:
com.sap.caf.eu.gp.exception.api.GPEngineException: Enter a role Action_2 of role type 2
Selected context parameter and i assign user from coding :
com.sap.caf.eu.gp.exception.api.GPEngineException: Enter a role Action_2 of role type 2
Action_2 is second level in my workflow.
If i select context parameter it is not starting process, i won't select context parameter process it starting..
I need get the user from backbend and assign to second level in my workflow.
Please give any solution to this problem..........

Work Flow - Suggestions, tutorials, or Books

Hello All,
I've been teaching myself AE, as well as Ps, Ai, and Pre Pro. (Creative Suite 4)
I'm somewhat comfortable with a couple of the applications but by no means a master of any. However, I think that its takes me too long to do some things, and I believe that I have encounter some problems because of my work flow and probably could have avoided them if I had formal training.
It could also be that I don't have a frame of reference and don't know how long things actually take, and to me, I just feel like I'm moving slow. I have been surprised to find out that a particular music video or special effect that I saw took a TEAM of people, a MONTH(s) to create.
For those of you who have gone to school and learned AE (or the other programs) with an instructor and a planned course, do you think you would have grasped the program(s) and how to make your creative ideas come to life on screen as easily if you had not gone to school and learned on your own?
Now that I am learning a 3D program (Blender) and will be trying to incorporate AE, Premiere Pro, Photoshop, Illustrator and Blender all together, when needed, and I was wondering if there is any book that deals with the proper workflow. Or is just doing the tutorials and building up knowledge/skills the way. Practice makes perfect but does practice make efficient? And I haven't even gotten into the scripts or expressions YET.
In buying the Creative Suite I had visions of making MOVIES/videos with all the special effects, flashing lights, disappearing acts, etc... and since all these applications came together in the Creative Suite- its ment for and possible for a person to do ALL things, by him or herself, --maybe my thinking is wrong and one should specialize and get with a team.
Is it that when one is trying to create a certain effect or look, knowing each application and its abilities would sort of guide you to the correct work flow?? But until you know these applications -- Very Well--, its a lot like stumbling in the dark and trying out different blending modes.
Is there a book that lays out the proper or most efficient workflow. I have been reading several booking on AE and also some on Pr Ps and Ai and doing tutorials on line, and learning Blender on line at CreativeCow.net but the books don't teach workflow.
Thanks in Advance

One unfortunate side-effect of the Production Premium package is that it's one serial# that is designed to be for one user and therefore some have made the leap to the conclusion that one person can be an expert in all those applications...I think it's 11 apps (depending on where you draw the line on what's an app and what's a utility, etc.) I've actually seen a couple job descriptions in corporate environments written around the contents of the Production Premium software compilation.
...'workflow' is a pretty deep topic that is hard to learn in abstract. It's also so wildly variable and evolving so fast that codifying it is pointless. I started an HD post production book for Focal Press some years ago, but abandoned it as a lack of cooperation and transparency from manufacturers and the sheer velocity of development on all fronts...computers, codecs, displays, cameras...just prevented anything from being complete and timely.
Unfortunately the internet has spawned the idea that if enough of us with 20, 30, or 40 years experience just keep brain-dumping into cyber-space, eventually anybody will be able to somehow 'proxy' all that experience through 3 days of intense Googling. It just doesn't work that way.
Like most of us, you'll need some time in the chair to be able to really get a handle on what you need to plan for and prioritize as workflow is really specific to everyone's specific circumstances.
You'll have to start with specific questions, and get specific answers, start to accumulate the answers until they start to connect...then the Googling helps to fill in some gaps...practical experience refines your ideas on what really works and what doesn't, you add that to what you know about your tools...suddenly you're an expert.
...and usually, the decades it takes to get there fly by pretty quickly. I have no idea what happened to the last 25 years.

Using LR and DxO in work flow.. file size problems

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with using both DxO and LR in their work flow that can help me with the following problem?
DxO takes my NEF and creates a DNG optically corrected. Great. Now I should just import these DNG files into LR and be on my way.. except that it seems to use Linear DNG rather then mosaiced and the file sizes are through the roof. My 10mb NEF file is converted into a 30mb DNG. Trying to reconvert using LR has no effect. If I start working with images in this size I will immediately see all my storage space cut by a third from the point of view of the number of images stored.
Has anyone found a way to work around this problem? I tried to use the adobe DNG converter to reconvert the images but it can go from mosaic to linear but not linear to mosaic. Turning on compression has no effect implying it is already a compressed DNG. Trying to zip the files also fails to have an effect.
I am really bummed out.. and wish I had paid more attention to file sizes during my trial.
Right now I am leaning toward only using DxO for a few special images and doing the rest entirely in LR.. but that really defeats the purpose of what I thought would be a great one two punch.
Thanks,
Chris

David,
The output preset you're using must have TIF enabled. Either edit it to remove the TIF option or create a new JPG-only one if you want to keep the option of exporting to both in the future.
I can't be more precise as I'm currently away from home and the DxO installation on my laptop has decided to deactivate and revert to time-expired demo mode, meaning I can't actually open the app!
[Edit]
Okay, sorted now.... In the DxO Optics Pro "Process" module, under the "Options" section you'll see "Output Formats". There should be one called "Default Output" which outputs to JPG. Ensure that the checkbox next to it is checked and that any others are disabled (unchecked). Your images will now only be exported after processing as JPGs. If you click the "X" next to an output preset you can delete it if no longer required.

Red Camera Work Flow Start to finish

I am editing on a Mac workbook with OS 10.5.7 and FCP 6.0.4 working off of external WD 1TB drive
since this is my 1st time editing with red footage I wanted to make sure what I have done so far is the best way to work with the footage and export. did some research on reds website and the net overall and found it not to be very helpful as far as specifics.
The hard rive had a folder with the project title which I opened and it had 13 folders labeled Roll A1 through Roll A13 , each folder had another folder that ended in .RDM . Each of thos folders had several folders with labels ending in .RDC and each of those folders had 4 quicktime files and a file ending in .R3D . The quicktime files where labeld the same except for the end _P , _M , _H , _F . from the research i did I knew enough that I wanted to work with the _P files so I only imported those for editing. I did my edit the director is given thumbs up and now I am ready to export.
I download Red Cine exported my XML file from FCP and tried to open up the XML in RED Cine and got wrong file message.
am I way out in left field with my work flow? did I go about it wrong?
Does final cut have a better way for going about this?
Can anyone shine some light in my direction?
Humbly your
Mr. Scott

Why not ask where you'll find more experts on this, like at REDUser.net?

Bus2014 Work flow display problem

Hi Folks,
In my work flow I am using BUS2014, when I am trying to interpet the process for decison step, the process should display the purchase contracts, In some users its diaplaying and in some users its not displaying even though the same authorisations are there for all the users.
What could be the problem.?
Secondly,
I am using one more decision step down the branched work flow to stop for user decision to change the purchase contracts, the problem is when I am trying to call method display and when user is changing the contracts into change mode, saving and returning back the whole session is comming back to Easy access rather than staying in deision step of the user in workflow inbox. is there any alternative that I can deal with.
Thanks and Regards,
Krishna Mukthineni

Hi folks,
The second problem lies with the application displaying.. It cannot go to some other transaction like change mode and come back as in Njoy tranctions... so I have adjusted the code to make the display of the method in change mode i.e. Me32k so it is working fine.
But still I have the first problem .. some times the display through method dont reflect for the user.. please help in this regard...

Internal order work flow problem

Both WF issues are related to internal orders , Transaction KO03
==========
Example for 1 st case
consider A , 1 , 2, 3 , 4 are approvers
A --->>>> 1) , 2) , 3) , 4)
if A doesnt approved in 3 days , then it go to 1 , 2, 3, 4
after 3 days , any one of them 1, 2 ,3 , 4 can approve it
3 days passes , but before any one of them approve , its already approved by A
all of 1, 2 , 3, 4 have mail in their inbox for approval , but
here work flow is completed , what work flow is supposed to do , it does
, but in status error is coming .
why this is error is coming , even when workflow completed and workflow does its job
==========
Second problem
one user X have approved , after its approval status should change to approved ,
but it is not changing and it is showing status in process .
therefore work flow monitoring team , who is checking which WF request are still in process
again initiating workflow .
Now again same cycle repeats , it again comes to inbox of same user , who earlier approves.
Please suggest why status is not changing , even after approval , why it is showing status in process
and why same user X , who earlier approves it , getting mail in its inbox for approving it.

Thank you one and all for your help making me reach my client requirments.
However, I still face a critical problem in PR work flow.

Hi ,
lets say A0
A1
A2
are the respective persons release code of the PR in the given hierrachy. Lets say that no pre requistie is specified for the release prerequistie. Client wants to forward first work item for approval to A0 first after a deadine of 8 days he wants that to be forwarded to A1 ( inspite of not approved from A0 ) and if A1 also not approves then it should be forwarded to A2 and wait there for ever for the final approval.
But presently what happens is that there are three seperate work items that are getting created and simultaneosly forwarding to A0,A1, A2 and seperately waitng for their approval. so do plese suggest me with any invovative steps to achieve the requirments if possible.
Thanks and Regards,

Install problems with Work Flow 9.0.4

I've installed the 10g (9.2.0.4 rdbms and 9.0.4 AS and CMSDK) on a RedHat 3 ES machine and had no problems (thanks to Werner Puschitz for his great how to http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.shtml).
Now I am trying to install the Work Flow product that accompanies the ias904cmsdk. But the Work Flow configuration fails when it tests the SYS login.
My reading of the sqlnet.log and workflow.log files is that the install script (wfinstall.csh) is trying to start an instance of Oracle in the AS bin folder. (Fatal TNS error connecting to ...(PROGRAM=/opt/.../as9i/bin/oracle)...
I installed the J2EE / Webcache installation of AS (as per the CMSDK recommendations) so there is no instance of oracle in the AS home/bin folder. The rdbms is in a different ORACLE_HOME than Work Flow. I've tried setting and unsetting the ORACLE_HOME and this makes no difference.
Does anyone out there have any ideas?

Error at work flow Export task in Essbase data load

Hi All,
I am trying to load the data to Hyperion Essbase. I have two small question first is :
1) can any buddy tell me what are the basic steps for specifying dimension for target essbase application. i have did the data load to HFM application previously but here with essbase it bit complex.
2) I have done with the creating import format and assign it to Location after specifying dimensions. At the work flow export task i am getting following error:
[Can not calculate Dimension member [Apr] with restricted member [Apr]
Thanks in Advance

The FDM Configuration Guide outlines the process to map the dimensions in the Essbase Adapter to the proper dimensions in the Essbase Outline. You will want to take a look at this on Oracle Technology Network under Documention.
You will want to right-click on the adapter in the workbench and choose "Configure"
You will then create your machine profile with the source machine value of the FDM app server name and the target machine value as the Essbase Server Name.
On the second tab you will specifiy the Essbase Applicaiton and Datbaase Name and logon method to use for integrating with Essbase.
Finally click on the Dimensions tab and click on each dimension in the left-pane and in the right-pane if the integration with Essbase is setup correctl you will be able to select the corresponding Essbase dimension from the Dimension drop down list and select it and it will populate the foreign name as Tony Mentioned.
You can then apply the changes when complete.
Hope this is helpful.

Losing Edits?!?... Am I having a Work Flow Problem???

OK, so this is what I am working with...
All Graphic Designers are on Mac OSX Snow Leopard running Adobe InDesign CS5
All Editors/Writers are on PC (various versions of windows?) running Adobe InCopy CS6
We are all working off a server to share these files...
This is our current "work flow", I've created .icmt files for the Editors/Writers to start their content in.
I have also created .indt files for the Graphic Designers to start the layout process.
Once the Editors/Writers have opened a .icmt file and entered the content, they save the file out as .icml files, then notifies the Designers that the content is ready to be placed.
The Designer then opens the .indt file and places the .icml files into the layout (this document usually runs about 16 letter size pages with approximately 30 assignments (.icml files)).
The file is then saved as a .indd file.
Now during the editing process while the designer is still laying out the document, the Editor/Writer opens the .indd file in InCopy and checks out an assignment to start their edits... and on several occasions after spending a good amount of time on edits, they check it back in, but they lose ALL of their edits that they just made??? What are we doing wrong here (sometimes it works, sometime it doesn't)?
If anyone could help me, i'd very much appreciate it.
Thanks!

Hello. I am recently having problems with my
PowerBook. Hope you guys could help out =)...
Firstly, I am having that 'beach ball problem' where
the color beach ball keeps spinning and spinning when
I'm loading applications or even using Safari.
Secondly, I went to Disk Utility and did a 'Verify
Disk Permissions'. My results are as follows:
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Volume Header needs minor repair
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
I'm so lost and worried now! My questions is, my hard
disk going to crash or something? I have no backup at
all! Help Help!
PowerBook G4 15-inch Mac OS X
(10.4.3)
Don't know about the beach ball. But the message indicates that the disk is probably OK. However, you cannot repair a disk while the system has it mounted; esp. the startup disk. You have to startup up using another disk; e.g., the install CD/DVD. Then you can run the disk utility and repair your main disk.
