Exported sequence way longer than storyline

A storyline was created which had 41 minutes of footage in it. This was then edited down into a 14 minute long video.
However, when exported, the video was 41 minutes long.
There are no stray clips in the storyline, and I am not looking at a compound clip. Nor is there a gap clip adding this length and I am not using PluralEyes at all.
The storyline does not even extend to the 41 minute mark; the only way to reach this point is to manually stretch a clip to that length.
I have tried duplicating the project and manually copy and pasting the clips which comprise the sequence into a new project, neither of which has made any difference.
It appears that Final Cut Pro thinks that the sequence itself is 41 minutes long, regardless of how long the clips inside it are (unless I manually extend a clip to longer than this 41 minute mark)
I'm using Final Cut Pro 10.0.3 and Mac OS X 10.7.3

The storyline is a timeline within a project into which footage has been placed to create a sequence. As I understand it, the official name for a timeline in FCP X is 'storyline'.
There are no compound clips on the storyline.
Of the 41 minutes originally placed on the storyline, 27 minutes have been removed in the editing process. The footage was of a 41 minute long conference speech, of which 27 minutes was audience discussion, and was therefore cut out. Thus the original story line was 41 minutes long, but the edited sequence on the story line is 14 minutes long.
The 41 minute long exported video has the edited 14 minute sequence, followed by 27 minutes of plain black. I'm not confusing the Events browser with the storyline. There is a fully-edited sequence which is successfully exported, but with black 'filler' in the exported video, of which no trace can be found on the storyline.
This is an issue with the representation of the timeline in an exported video, rather than a connection between the event browser and the storyline.
Thank you for answering and I hope this additional information is of use to you. The key points are that I'm not confused about how storylines work, or about what the event browser is in comparison, but that there is an exporting issue which I can't understand.

FCP Export Taking WAY LONGER Than Usual.

Hi there, I've been using Final Cut Pro to edit video from a 1080p Canon Camcorder for the past 10 months, and since last week, whenever I'm done with the editing process and I decide to export the Video in 720p HD with H264 with AAC Audio, the exports take A LOT LONGER than they took before.
It can take up to 2 hours to export a short 3 minute video..
Whereas it USED TO take about only 30 minutes for the same footage before.
Is there anything I'm forgetting, any setting I've accidentally changed or something?
Please help me out,
Thank you.
(I'm using FINAL CUT PRO 7)

I still can't figure it out,
a 3 minute long video which was about 300MBs when exported with QuickTime Conversion from FCP7 is now about 1.25 GBs, I don't remember having changed any settings, I've even tried trashing preferences, but still no luck.
*An old video that was shot with the same HD Camcorder which was 3 Minute long video I had exported was 257.9 MB & the total bitrate is 11,715 (EXPORTED FILE)*
*But this file that I'm having size issues with right now is also 3 Minutes long (shot with same camcorder) and the exported file is 1.25 GBs and has a bitrate of 58,693*
These are the QUICKTIME CONVERSION setting I've always used:
VIDEO:
Compression: H.264
Quality: Best
Key frame rate: 24
Frame reordering: yes
Encoding mode: multi-pass
Dimensions: 1280x720
SOUND:
Format: AAC
Sample Rate: 44.100 KHZ
Channels: Stereo (L R)
Bit Rate: 320 kbps
I've been using these same settings before and I haven't changed anything, but the file size has tripled on exports.
*Sequence Settings:*
QUICKTIME VIDEO SETTINGS:
APPLE PRORES 422
Quality 100%
And btw, I always DO A FULL "RENDER ALL" + "RENDER MIXDOWN" before exporting,
Is there any settings I must make sure haven't changed???

I went to back up my iPhone4 and it said there was an update. So I clicked on 'update and backup' (or something close to that.) It took FOREVER...way longer than usual. When it was done, it showed the power cord w/an arrow to iTunes. ***??? I restarted my computer and tried the whole process again and still...the power cord with an arrow to iTunes. And I know this means I have to go to Apple and get another phone and will lose anything that wasn't backed up. Anyone else have this happen or have a solution so I don't have to do a restore???

Reboot your computer.
Disable your antivirus and firewall.
Connect the phone to a USB port directly on your computer, not to a hub. If your computer is not a laptop and has ports on both front and back use a port on the back.
If iTunes does not recognize the phone when you connect it see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
If it STILL doesn't work open a command window and type:
netsh winsock reset
Then try again. (It seems that a recent Microsoft Windows update may have corrupted network settings; this restores them to the factory default).
BTW, was there an error number associated with the failed update?

Exported file is longer than actual podcast.

Every time I export my audio file from Garageband to ACC format, the file is always longer than the audio that is contained in the file. How do I make a 38 second file export as a 38 second file?
Thanks!

You may not have the End of Song marker at the exact end, or have some blank space at the beginning of your project.
You can use the Cycle Region to export the exact length you wish. (Press C and adjust the yellow CR at the top of the Timeline. You may want to zoom in for more accuracy).

Insert + Update code in 11g taking WAY longer than 9 ?

Hi guys
Hoping to get a few suggestions as to what might be causing a problem I'm having.
I've got a routine in a form that was previously running against a version 9 database, and is now running against an 11g database.
The routine has a series of cursor loops which results in a number of inserts and updates on the database.
I have in this routine a call to a procedure which inserts a record into a logging table, with the time it is called. With this I can gauge how long the routine is taking.
On the version 9 database, the log of inserts is as follows :
After x rows, time taken (mins, secs)
1000 rows - 1.04
4000 rows - 4.38
9000 rows - 9.43
13000 rows - 14.01
18000 rows - 15.58
So, as a very approximate value, 1000 rows a minute consistantly through to the end at 18000.
The version 11 database is an import of the version 9 database. so has all the same constraints, indexes, triggers etc.
The code disables foreign key constraints before executing, it doesnt drop the indexes.
On the version 11 database, the log of inserts is as follows :
1000 rows - 0.30
4000 rows - 3.58
9000 rows - 19.58
13000 rows - 41.46
18000 rows - 80.45
So rather than staying at a rough 1000 rows per 1 minute time, as more rows are inserted, the time to complete is going up and up and up.
This would point at indexing maybe? But since there is only 1 index on the tables being inserted into, which is the same on the 9 and 11 database, this ought not to be the case.
Can anyone suggest why the version 11 database is taking so much longer, and why the time to process is increasing rather than staying constant throughout.
I'm at a loss at what to look for now.
Thanks a lot

The code has to gather data from several tables, perform some fairly complex logic on it, building up record structures before inserting into a number of tables and updating several others. None of which can be done with a simple merge statement.
It has to be done using cursors, both implicit and explicit to retrieve the data first."Has to" is a bit presumptive. SQL has got very powerful constructs and features that can (pretty much) do anything you require. It may be complex SQL but it will process all the rows of data in one go rather than doing continuous context switching.
Here's a basic example of the time difference between running stuff as a single SQL and context switching...

[/code]One hell of a difference, and it can get worse depending on how many switches are done in a loop.
Theres no commit until the end.That's good.
So, feel free to suggest how I go about gathering data to build up the various records without using cursors.Without knowing your structures, data, requirements etc. how can we tell, apart from to say that maximising SQL and minimising PL/SQL will improve performance.
Even if you do - it still wouldnt explain why tuned code which runs in 18 minutes on one box is running at 90 minutes on another.It could be a configuration factor of the database, but equally it could be a number of other factors.
Unless you provide comparative explain plans for queries etc. then how can we tell.

Premiere CC 2014 exporting H264 takes longer than Premiere CC ..?

Hi,
I did some tests with exporting a Apple prores HQ clip of 1 minute with the standard H264 Youtube 1080p setting.
And the results are a bit worrying.
Direct export in Adobe Premiere Pro CC = 1 minute 28 seconds
Direct export in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 = 2 minute 16 seconds
And that's for a clip of one minute ...
I use a
MacBook Pro
Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013
Processor 2,6 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M 2048 MB
Running OSX 10.9.4
CUDA Driver Version: 6.0.51
And on my Mac Pro of early 2008, CC2014 exports slower
Direct export Premiere Pro CC = 2:23
Direct export Premiere Pro CC 2014 = 3:38
In the activity Monitor I see that 'Adobe QT32 server is not responding". Maybe that's got something to do with it?
I have already tried to delete the quicktime components from the library and i have done a clean install of Premiere Pro CC 2014 (terrible name btw).
Anyone any suggestions? :s
Jochem

To add to my quest:
Adobe QT32 server runs fine with After Effects CC 2014. When I export the same footage with AE to H264 it takes 1:28 . So maybe I should use after effects for encoding...
When I send the AE comp to Queue in Media Encoder it takes 3 min 32 to render is. That is in Media Encoder CC because Media Encoder CC 2014 can't open the composition ("comp is empty")
when I put the pores clip directly in AME CC and AME CC2014 it's 1:24 vs 2:16 .
the new version takes almost a minute longer to render a 1 minute clip...

Exported movie 2x longer than Slideshow?

My Keynote presentation is just over a minute, and the music synchs perfectly, but when I export it to QuickTime - no matter what I do - it creates a video that's 2:09 long and the music runs out, not to mention it slows everything down to half-speed. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong??

The QuickTime export takes the timings of transitions and builds from the export dialogue box settings, it ignores the timings you have made within the presentation. Therefore calculate the timings you will need and enter the amounts in the GoTo Next Slide and Go To next Build. The export does not allow different durations for each slide.
If you need different durations for each slide, add the timings using the record the slide show feature: Play > Record Slide Show
When exporting, select; Playback: Slideshow Recording

Datapump: expdp taking considerably longer than exp

does anyone know why datapump export takes considerably longer than the deprecated exp function of oracle?
with few schemes datapump is rather fast. the more schemes you have, the longer it takes for datapump to perform an export. the deprecated exp function however remains fast.
some statistics i've made:
12 schemes: export takes ~30 seconds
128 schemes: export takes ~60 seconds
152 schemes: export takes ~80 seconds
328 schemes: export takes ~ 5minutes(!)
after i deleted schemes and reduced the number of schemes to 68, the expdp function became fast again: ~60 seconds.
does anyone have a hint for me about where i can make performance modifications? oracle describes in its documentation that datapump is faster than the deprecated export and that the deprecated exp function shouldn't be used anymore. currently this isn't true and we are at a big disadvantage now, since we are using datapump.
the expdp function "hangs" very long with the following logging output:

and it's the same for me: the more objects, the longer the expdp process takes. the operation finishes eventually.

Premiere Pro CS6 - Exported Video Longer Than Audio

Hello all. I've downloaded a series of tutorials from Groove 3 and have been using Premiere/Encore to convert them to Blu-rays. Up until recently, I've had no problems with the workflow, but now I'm stuck and can't figure out what's happening.
The tutorials are broken down into individual video clips per chapter, AVC MP4 media, 30p. Most of them are screen captures so they aren't in typical video resolutions, so what I've been doing is creating a new sequence in Premeire Pro (1280x720 59.94 or 30p, tried both) and brought the clips into the timeline. I resize the video, add Encore chapter markers at the start of each clip, then export the sequence using the H.264 Blu-ray template with 1280x720 resolution.
The entire length of each tutorial varies - some are 90 minutes others are several hours - so sometimes I need to adjust the bitrate to ensure that I'm ending up with an .m4v that'll fit on the Blu-ray.
When I bring that .m4v clip into Encore as a timeline and preview the project, the markers start falling behind and there's considerable audio drift by the end of the sequence.
If I bring that exported clip back into premiere, I find that the video track is actually longer than the audio track, which explains the chapter markers/audio not lining up. What I can't understand is why Premiere would export a video track that's longer than the audio track when everything lines up and plays back perfectly in the sequence timeline within PPro.
Again, I've used this workflow with previous tutorials and it worked fine, but I've not been able to fix this problem. Even if I export a different container/codec out of PPro then convert it to .m4v in Media Encoder, I keep ending up with the same problem.
I'm thinking about making each chapter its own sequence and exporting each of them individually, then manually linking all of them together in Encore, but that seems like a pretty ridiculous workflow when everything should line up as is.
I had originally assumed it was because I was changing sequence settings when bringing the footage into PPro (I want the sequence to be in 1280x720, not the screen resolutions of the tutorial vids), but even when I ensure that the sequence frame rate matches that of the source videos, the exported media does not match up.
Ideas?

The tutorials are downloaded as a zip file then extracted; I don't actually screen record the tutorials while streaming or anything. I guess I couldn't say if variable frame rate was used when they recorded the tutorials, but the media I have shows up as 30fps as opposed to some sort of non-traditional frame rate that often shows up when recording with something at a variable frame rate (like the stock iPhone video camera app).

How to pass a string longer than 30 to an Export Parameter in a PI sheet ?

Hi All,
I'm trying to set up a process instruction in a PI sheet that calls a URL web page.
I found the function module CALL_BROWSER and tested it in SE37 and it works fine.
I created a process instruction to call this function module and pass parameters to it.
Everything works if the URL is short. For example:
0010   PPPI_BUTTON_TEXT          Show URL
0020   PPPI_FUNCTION_NAME          CALL_BROWSER
0030   PPPI_FUNCTION_DURING_DISPLAY     allowed
0040   PPPI_EXPORT_PARAMETER          URL
0075   PPPI_STRING_CONSTANT          http://www.google.com
This is where I ran into a roadblock.
The characteristic PPPI_STRING_CONSTANT is only 30 characters long.
I can't figure out how to pass an export parameter longer than 30 characters.
I have also tried loading up multiple PPPI_VARIABLE(s) with the idea of some how combining them into a single long string that I can pass, but no luck figuring out how.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Kind Regards
Michael

Thanks Dario, this is good information, but it does not directly solve my problem.
I think I have figured out an approach, but was hopeing someone else had a standard solution.
If I don't here something soon, I will try the following:
Create a new function moduel as a shell or wrapper that calls the standard FM RUN_Browser.
My shell will have 5 input parameters URLP1 thru URLP5.
I can then pass a long URL to my shell in 5 parts.
Inside my shell, the 5 parts will be joined up into 1 long string and passed on to the URL parameter in RUN_Browser.
If anyone has a better idea, please let me know.
Kind Regards
Mike Rupp

I need to create an animation sequence in photoshop cs6 longer than 5 seconds

I need to create an animation sequence in photoshop cs6 longer than 5 seconds. please help.

What problem are you having that should be easy just create the layer to make frames with. Create a frame animation in the timeline panel. Create the frames and set their display time. Save an animated gif for the web ie "Save For Web"
Prior to CS6 Photoshop only had a Animation Palette in CS Adobe replaced the palette with the Timeline Palette that can do Frame animations and Video. You can render a fame animation as a video but video does not support transparency like and animated Gif.

Are there any ways to get sequence number other than getting it for each re

are there any ways to get sequence number other than getting it for each record

CACHE is the number of values Oracle stores in memory. So the first call to NEXTVAL Oracle grabs x numbers; subsequent calls to NEXTVAL are served from memory until they're all gone and them another bunch is grabbed. The attached sql*plus output demonstrates this behaviour.
Note that normally unused numbers in the cache are returned to the data dictionary but in exceptional circumstances (DB crash) they may be lost.

HT201472 Is there any way how to find out where a particular device was when it last went online if longer than 24 hours ago?

One Mac Book Air was stoilen frm me, I can still see it on Find my Iphone and can see that it has been renamed. The computer was offline for longer than 24 hours, so I am wondering if there is any way how I can find out it's last online location?

No, you cannot find out where the computer has been. Find My Mac only shows you were the computer is right now if it is online.
I strongly recommend you change all your internet passwords immediately, notify the police (do not try to recover your MBA yourself), and your insurance company so you can get reimbursed and buy a new Mac. Once you have done all this go back to Find My Mac and click the "Erase" button.
