Exporting 24Bit 44.1KHz omf files from FCP 5 into Protools

Hi,
I have my Sequences in FCP set to using 24Bit 44.1KHz Audio, and I'm trying to export the same to omf files for Protools.
I find that I get White Noise in Protools. However, when I change the bit depth to 16Bits, it works fine.
I'm using FCP 5 and Digitranslator.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Rajnesh

I just found out that the problem was with the Digitranslator. Only the latest version 2.0 supports Reading Omf files of 24bit depth.
aiff files would have been an alternative, but unfortunately they don't support handles - a very useful feature when you're trying to cross fade across clips that have been checker boarded.

Export DPX files from FCP with Timecode

Hi,
Have anyone found a way to export DPX files from FCP, and also get the timecode in the DPX header...
Thanks for answers!!
//P

Your workflow is not correct.
In FCP I bring the clip to the timeline, trim, color correct it then File> Export> Using Compressor. Compressor opens up and places the clip into the Batch Window. This works fine, but when I go back to FCP, delete the clip from the timeline and place an other clip there and when I Export>Using Compressor, Compressor places the clip in a new Window title "Untitle 1" and so it goes on. As far as I understood, whenever you add a clip from the FCP it places it below the first clip so when I want to add my settings, I can add all 3 settings to all the clips. Did I missunderstand something?
You're misunderstanding a couple of different things. When you send a clip or sequence from FCP to Compressor, you cannot then apply the settings you want in Compressor then go back to FCP and delete that clip from your sequence ... Compressor is trying to reference that sequence. If you keep removing clips, then Compressor won't follow those clips ... you're essentially breaking the link between Compressor and FCP by doing this.
Try this:
1. Load Clip A into the Viewer, Set your In & Out points and add your Color Correction.
2. Press Command U to Make a Subclip. This will create a separate "clip" in your bin. Rename as necessary.
3. Repeat this process for your other 19 clips.
4. Then Select all of your new subclips in your Browser, then File > Export > Using Compressor. This will open Compressor and add all of those subclips into the Job window.
5. Add your appropriate Target settings and set your Destinations and revise any filenames if necessary.
6. Click Submit.

Having trouble exporting mpeg2 files from FCP 3 - please help me!

I haven't made a DVD for a little while, in the meantime have upgraded my operating system from 10.3 to 10.4 and am completely up to date with QT etc. I have Final Cut Pro 3, DVD Studio Pro 1.5 and Quicktime 7.3. The problem now is that when I try to export my edited video as mpeg2 from FCP, FCP immediately quits- I just can't figure it out... it leaves a file icon in the destination folder but apparently the error in the crash report means that I'm trying to write to a read only destination!?
look! ->

Can you use DVDSP to do the encoding for you?
FCP3 was really not intended to be run from Tiger, in fact, I believe it will not install on a clean 10.4 disk.

Need to export an AC3 audio file from FCP

Does anyone know how to export (or convert to) and AC3 audio file from FCP? My compressor is not currently working, is there another way? I have Sorenson Squeeze and FCP 5.0.4. Thank you!!!
alex

Upload your audio file to my Public folder and wait 20 mins. I'll compress the audio to .ac3 for you if you're in a crunch. Check back in my Public Folder and I'll have it there for you.

Can you export a Quick Time REFERENCE file from Final Cut Pro X?

Used to be in FCP-7, you could export your timeline and at the bottom of the Export dialog box, there was a check box where you could check "Make the movie self-contained," which would export a full Quick Time .mov file, or you could UNCHECK that box and FCP would export a Quick Time REFERENCE file (referencing the source media used within the timeline), which you could then bring in to any one of a number of different encoding apps.
I prefer to use Sorenson Squeeze to do my encoding, as it's much, much faster than Compressor and has infinitely more format options (Flash, Windows Media, Real, etc., etc.).
But now, I don't see a way to export a Quick Time Reference file from the Final Cut Pro timeline, er, uh, storyline, er, uh, project.
Anybody know if there's a way to export a Quick Time REFERENCE file (not a full Quick Time .mov)?

R&B wrote:

I do the same thing with Final Cut Express, actually. Only I then open the reference file up in QuickTime Pro and re-export it to an h.264 mp4. I can do that multiple times in the background vs. getting caught up in Final Cut's pathetically non-threaded user interface when it's saving/exporting.
I was going to ask the exact same question here, but you beat me to it. And so far it sounds like the answer is "no" ... :-(

Export from FCP directly into DVD studio pro?

Is it possible to export from FCP directly into DVD studio pro? If not, what is the preferred file format because my exported quicktime files come up as "incompatible format" when I try to add them into my DVD project. Any help is appreciated.

You need to encode audio as well from Compressor. You'll have 2 files - audio and video.
Here's a tutorial:

It´s not possible to use compressor when exporting to compressor 4.0.7 from FCP 10.1

It is not possible to work with Compressor 4.0.7 from a Project send fro FCPx 10.1
I did not upgrade compressor to the last because it does not give the possibilities of version 4.0.7
Any suggestions?Thanks

Yes. Export a master file from FCP and bring that exported file into Compressor's source file well.

.mov file from FCP, what's the next step to convert it to play on a dvd?

I have a project save to a .mov file from FCP and it looks great. It was shot in 720 HD but my dvd won't play .mov files.
I'd like to either convert it to an .avi or mpeg file now but after trying a few times through QT Pro and even Mpeg Streamclip, the footage is either pixelated or is too choppy to play on my dvd (Samsung HT5500).
What are the best settings to convert a HD .mov file to play on a dvd so it looks great. What software should I use for this... QT Pro or Mpeg Streamclip?
TIA,
Dale

DVD Studio Pro.
And you can't make a DVD that is HD; DVDs are standard definition. You can make Blu-ray discs with a Blu-ray burner and Blu-ray player, but you DVDs will only be 720x480.
Convert in Compressor with a preset for DVD, and import that into DVD Studio Pro.

Import an FLV file from Adobe Connect into Premiere Elements 12?

The Adobe Connect support staff recommended that we use Adobe Premiere Elements to edit the FLV file that we exported out of their software. We purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 12 based on that advice. Now we see that FLV files are not on the list of supported import files.
How can I import an FLV file from Adobe Connect into Adobe Premiere Elements 12 for editing?

Welcome to the forum.
Over the years, I have used Moyea's Flash Importer plug-in for PrPro, and it has worked perfectly. With about PrPro CS 4, IIRC, Adobe did add an FLV Importer, so Moyea began to suspend development of that plug-in. Then, with the release of the CC version of PrPro, they dropped FLV completely.
Now, Moyea does have other programs, but I do not know if any of them are plug-ins for PrE. However, many of their programs can create, edit and output FLV.
There is also a (free, if memory serves) FLV converter, FLV to AVI, which I used to convert FLV files, before I discovered the Moyea plug-in for my PrPro.
I would look into Moyea, to see if there is anything, that will work as a plug-in to PrE, http://www.video-to-flash.com/products/, and if not, explore a program, such as FLV to AVI: http://www.pazera-software.com/products/flv-to-avi-converter/
Good luck,

Fetching of multiple files from Application Server into SAP Program

Hi All,
I have a issue related Fetching of multiple files from Application Server into SAP Program.
Actual issue is as below.
In the selection screen of my program i will give Application Server Path as :
/PW/DATA/SAP/D1S/PP/DOWN/eppi0720*
Then the based on above input it should pick up all the files that are matching eppi0720* criteria.
Suppose if i am having 5 files with above scenario, i have to fetch all those 5 files at a time and place in my SAP Program.
All those 5 file's data should come into SAP at a time.
Can anybody tell me how can we solve above issue.
If any body has come across same issue please provide me with solution.
Thanks in advance.

Error while reading excel file from application server into internal table.

Hi experts,
My requirement is to read an excel file from application server into internal table.
Hence I have created an excel file fm_test_excel.xls in desktop and uploaded to app server using CG3Z tcode (as BIN file type).
Now in my program I have used :
OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN text mode encoding default.
DO.
READ DATASET v_filename INTO wa_tab.
The statement OPEN DATASET works fine but I get a dump (conversion code page error) at READ DATASET statement.
Error details:
A character set conversion is not possible.
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103':
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
codepages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
The running ABAP program 'Y_READ_FILE' had to be terminated as the conversion
would have produced incorrect data.
The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not
be converted), is 445. If this number is 0, the second error case, as
mentioned above, has occurred.
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was not
caught and
therefore caused a runtime error.
The reason for the exception is:
Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
conversion error occurs.
Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
'4110' or '4103' is not known to the system.
If the conversion error occurred at read or write of screen, the file
name was '/usr/sap/read_files/fm_test_excel.xls'. (further information about
the file: "X 549 16896rw-rw----201105170908082011051707480320110517074803")
Also let me know whether this is the proper way of reading excel file from app server, if not please suggest an alternative .
Regards,
Karthik

Hi,
Try to use OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN BINARY mode encoding default. instead of OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN text mode encoding default.
As I think you are uploading the file in BIN format to Application server and trying to open text file.

Umang Mehta

I need to upload my files from one directory into other directory.

i need to upload my files from one directory into other directory.( all its contents,folders,sub folders, files etc)
for this task
suppose my source folder is C:/test/test1/test2/test3
and my destination is D:/
first i have to check whether my dest dirctory already contains source directory..and its files
if it contains the same structure then i have to replace the destination dir structure to source dir structure( to upadte changes)
if it(dest dir) not contains source dir ..means it doesn't contain source folder then
i have to create same source folder directory structure ( test.test1/test2/test3...) at destination(D:/) and copy all its contents frm source directory...
( means i don;t want to create manually same dir structure as source at destnation dir to copy all contents)

I believe you need to read up on the class File.java (it comes with java).
Some examples:
File file = new File("C:/myDirectory");
if(file.isDirectory())
System.out.println("this is a directory");
if(file.isFile())
System.out.println("this is a file").
You will then need to read up on other classes to read/write to the file such as FileReader and FileWriter.
