Exporting From LR For Aperture User

I second shoot weddings frequently for an Apple/Aperture user friend of mine...I'm PC and LR all the way (using LR5).
I typically just dump my RAW files on a DVD or flash drive and let him edit mine in his workflow. I'd like to provide him with edited files though to save him a little time on his end.
Is it feasible to export my DNG files out of LR w/ my edits intact, in a format comptible with Aperture? If all else fails, I can just give him the DNGs with a separetd folder of edited JPEGs...But wanted to check first to see if anyone has had success with this export/import process in the past.

I can probably answer myself.... I overlooked the new "complete toning in Camera Raw" button!!!!!

A workaround for Aperture users to use .Mac Web Gallery

As a user who recently switched to Aperture - I was hugely disappointed seeing some amazing new photo-related features in iLife '08 not available for Aperture users. Let alone the cash for purchasing software suites, I can't convince myself switching back to iPhoto for a single feature. So I googled and searched around...
Some pre-requisite for the workaround: You must have iLife '08, Aperture and .Mac installed.
_*Solution 1*_
Create an album in Aperture that contains the images you want to upload to your .Mac Web Gallery. In iPhoto '08, create an empty library, then File > Show Aperture Library, choose the album and import images from there.
The downside of this is the images are your Versions in preview quality.
_*Solution 2*_
Export Versions from Aperture and import the images to iPhoto and perform the upload.
_*Solution 3*_
For users building websites in iWeb, I have seen threads that one could use the media browser in iLife suite to perform similar result but it also limits to the preview quality of Aperture.
I would have to say even the workaround is hugely disappointed but I can't see any other solutions at the moment. I couldn't recall my last ocassion on having such disappointment for Apple's software development.

Apple really needs to rev. Aperture so it sends photos directly to the new .Mac Web Galleries.
Everyone needs to go here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/aperture.html
And voice there opinion there to get this added to Aperture.
Thanks, Scott K.

Exporting from FCP for use with PC

Hey all,
Trying to deliver a high-med quality 8 minute video from FCP for use with a PC. I've tried exporting both a .mov and .avi using DVCPro50, but neither are readable through the PC. Best I can get is sometimes audio will show up. Does anyone have a good solution for exporting from FCP for use with a PC?
Thanks again for your help!

I don't think DVCpro50 codec is available on a PC. I think panasonic has a special license with apple only, so you need to try a different codec for the avi.

Any Flickr Export plugin available for Aperture 3?

I was happy to see Flickr included in Aperture 3, but to say the least, it really *****.
The worst thing is that it applies my own keywords to all the uploaded images. I don't want the (full) names of peoples in my pictures to display at Flickr and having my local-language keywords on my images probably doesn't help Flickr where most users are speaking english (compared to my local language).
Basically I wish the Flickr export feature would allow me to either "not sync keywords" or modify my keywords to determine if I want them exported or not - like Lightroom does.

Thanks for the warning Martin. I already know from iPhoto's flickr export that you gotta be careful. I guess the iPhoto/Aperture flickr export is great for those wanting REAL simplicity, but if you want to adjust just one or two settings, it's a no-go and it kinda *****
I hope there's an AP3 flickr export plugin out there? I would be willing to spend $10 on it.

For Aperture Users

I have been a long time Aperture User. I also own my own copy (glad I did) of Photoshop CS6.
Aperture will function for a good long while, love the program, but don't mind switching now that the writing is on the wall.
I wasn't aware of all the "cloud" changes/focus of Adobe. This is new to me. I took the plunge two days ago with the $9.95 option. Wasn't happy with $120/year to borrow a program, but figured there must be some reason this works.
Now that I've used LR for a day, played with it, I better understand it. I've watched it from a distance grow over the years. Attended photoshop conferences and heard about it, figured I might buy it some day.
That day has come.
I've already got my refund coming. Here's why Adobe.
#1 - as an Aperture User, I don't understand your terminology. When I read what would happen if I decided to quit paying you money, I had no point of reference to understand exactly what that meant. Figured it didn't matter.
#2 - loaded up the program, imported pics, started learning. Started having fun. Suddenly it hit me: I lose the key functionality I need if I quit paying Adobe money. I realized what that word "develop" meant.
#3 - once I realized that I would basically have a program that doesn't do much of anything, correct me if I'm wrong, but I can't figure out what it would do other than slideshow, share with Facebook, etc (other programs do that much for free)...what would Lightroom do if I quit paying Adobe money?
#4 - Now that I realize what is happening, I can't keep going forward, it would be irrational. Unless I'm misunderstanding something. Clarify please. I'm willing to pay for software, always have. My wallet hurt buying the full version of CS6.
#5 - Here's the crux of what I don't think Adobe is taking into consideration with the pay forever or lose functionality model:
        - I was diagnosed with cancer in 2008. Beat it.
        - I was diagnosed with cancer again a few months ago, stem cell transplant, chemo, going to beat it.
        - LIFE PRESENTS CHANGES AND PROBLEMS. I realize you guys are rich and expect us all to just pay forever, but there are twists and turns that come in life. I am scaling down to save money while temporarily on disability. Lets say I have to stay on disability (which I won't, I work and will work unless I die) and am presented with a difficult life circumstance, I've paid $120 or more for a program I can't do anything with.
Does this sound even logical? Why not offer to those who desire, the ability to purchase Lightroom upright. Just buy it. I'm willing to pay. I suddenly see this pay forever or else model as a rip off. If life takes a cruel turn, and trust me as a 49 year old hard working man who has paid his dues, life can get unfair at times. What are you going to do for a loyal customer Adobe? Just disable my program and not care?
Think about it. Just think about it. Maybe after a person pays a normal fair price, they could fully own the right to normal functionality, no more updates, and not be penalized for not paying forever. I don't need all the syncing and other nice features. Those are great and progressive, but what about just a photo management program that allows for RAW processing/editing?
I don't understand the advantage of a pay forever model, with the exception to how it pads Adobe's wallet. Otherwise, as an end user, I'm screwed by another large corporation. At least Apple let me have my program and said they will keep it running for a while.

First of all, you're not talking to Adobe here, most of us are not Adobe employees and the few that are can't change the marketing policies.
Secondly, as David__B has explained, you can still buy Lightroom, own it forever, no monthly fees.
Thirdly, if your only view of Lightroom is an editor, then yes, if you stop paying the subscription, you can no longer edit your photos (but you do not lose the edits you made to photos before you stopped paying). If you think of Lightroom as a digital asset management program, you can still use it as that (even if you stop paying the subscription); you can also export your photos or distribute them via Print, Web, Slideshow or Publish methods, so the work you have done in the past is not lost in any way.
Does this sound even logical?
No, your facts are wrong.

Deletion of particular roles from SU01 for specific users

Hi,
Actually I have to certain(only some) roles for users in SU01.
This is bulk data so doing it manually through SU01 is not possible.
Is there any function module/BAPI which will delete particular roles for users??
Disha.

Hi David.

I take it this is being run in PRD? What checks are being carried out during the table entry deletions and are you 100% happy sitting at your keyboard when pressing the 'run' button?
Changes are made in PRD. The program was tested and is approved by each customer.
Is there an easy way back to the previous state should it go wrong and how do you explain it to the auditors if needed that you assigned-number of roles in PRD against your own user ID possibly with no CDHDR/CSDPOS entries to back you up.
Sorry for the 'negative vibes' but I don't like direct table maintenance in PRD for security.
Best wishes
David
The way back is uploading the old role assignment previously exported from AGR_USERS. The program takes an excel sheet. In addition this excel sheet is attached to the change requests.
From risk perspective we say (and experienced): mass changes through copy and paste lead to much more errors and faulty authorizations.
Regarding direct table maintenance: standard function modules are used (like the one mentioned above) and the changes are visible in the change documents, Therefore the auditors grant an exception for using such tools.

Forums for Aperture Users?

While this discussion is good for bugs, issues and the technical side of things, there's very little in the way of tips and tricks, photos, settings, presets, etc. That is, the actual results of working in Aperture and the best ways to achieve them. Where do Aperture users congregate apart from here? Thanks!

The only one I know of is the Aperture Users group on Flickr. I wish there was more though!

AAF exports from PPCC for Avid don't include video

PPro CC 2014.2 release 8.2.0 (65) Build
iMac 27" Mid 2011; 3.4ghz i7; 16gb 1333 Mhz DDR3; AMD Radeon HD6970M 1024mb; OSX 10.9.5
I need to export AAFs of projects for Avid finishing. Tried exporting with embedded audio, separate audio, WAV, AIFF, trimmed and complete audio files but in no instance has the video exported.
I have tried using multiple projects all with the same results-no video goes with the export. I can do work arounds but I need to have a simple and direct way to export from PP to Avid. We have dozens of users in our facility who need this ability.
I've looked through the discussion boards here and elsewhere and can't find an answer to this one.
Is this a known bug? I haven't attempted this in earlier builds, so I'm unsure whether this has ever functioned.
ANy help is appreciated.

This is a problem I've been trying to solve for a while too, Premier AAF files won't work with Avid. Even once you see the sequence in Avid the offline files will never reconnect to the media.
A work around for this is to use Final Cut 7 and Automatic Duck, So make an XML in Prem, import that into FCP7 and then export an AAF from there using Auto Duck. One big problem is that FCP7 doesn't support MXF files though, so as long as you aren't using that format, it'll work. It's not very streamlined, but it's the best way I've found.

Best way to export from FCE for compression?

Hi again, folks!
I've read/learned that, when you plan to compress your video, you should ideally export from your editing program in the final resolution (size) that you want the video to be. Apparently this is because editing programs do a better job of sizing the video than do compression programs (such as Sorenson Squeeze, which does its best work doing only compression). What I'm wondering is this: When I export to QuickTime from FCE, I have two options, namely Export as a QuickTime Movie, or Export Using QuickTime Conversion (which allows me to save as a QuickTime or other format). So, my question is, if I Export Using QuickTime Conversion, does this actually "convert" the video to some 'bastardized' version of QuickTime, or does it just reduce the size? I'm asking because I don't understand why, on the one hand, FCE refers to exporting a full size video as simply "Exporting as QuickTime" while on the other hand (eg. when I'm lowering the resolution), it's called "QuickTime Conversion" (which is lumped in with a whole bunch of other output format possibilities such as .avi, mpeg4, etc).
I'm probably not being as clear as I'd like, but more simply put, why does FCE consider going from hi-res QuickTime to low-res QuickTime a 'conversion'?

One suggestion I received (just tonight) from another forum was to export the video from FCE, but not as a self-contained movie; this way (I'm told), the video is not being compressed or otherwise altered, and hence will give me the best results when I compress
The information you received on the other forum was half right and half wrong. The difference between a self-contained movie and a movie that isn't (known as a 'reference' movie) is NOT the quality; it's that the self-contained movie is an exact copy of what's in your Sequence while the reference movie only refers to the original media and renders ... it doesn't copy it. Since reference movies rely on the original media (and render files) for playback or when used in other applications (like Sorenson Squeeze), they will not work properly on any other system nor will they work if any of the original media or render files are moved, deleted or otherwise altered.
The quality of the two types is identical.

Best way to export from FCP for website

I've been reading around about this and am not getting a clear idea of what to do...
I have some short sequences in FCP (longest is 2 minutes) that I want to post individually on my new website (that I'm just learning about).
I want to export them in a way that is a small file but that looks and sounds good, and also that can be played by most or all computers.
So I guess that is two questions: settings for export from FCP, and how to control how it will be viewed.
Thanks so much, anyone with ideas or experience!

We don't know what format you are dealing with, ratio etc.
However, some short answers for you.
For best quality at a considerable small file size the choice is, yet again, H.264 (Require QT7 or higher. For universal compatibility you may need flash conversion).
FCP main menu>File>Export>QT Conversion>Options> the higher the bit rate the better the quality but the bigger becomes the file size. Size : i.e 320x240 if 4:3; 480x270 if 16x9). Choose AAC (Not PCM) as sound format (192 target bit rate).

Exporting from Quicktime for optimal editing in FinalCut Express

I've read that it is recommended to export H.264 for best quality in Quicktime, but Final Cut Express doesn't play H.264 in real time. It forces you to render if you want to edit in the timeline. What is the best format to export from Quicktime in to enable real time editing in FCE?

To convert the file so that FCE doesn't need rendering you need QuickTime Pro and do the following:
- open the file
- menu File > Export...: then select +Export: Movie to QuickTime Movie+ and click Options.
- In the +Video > Settings+ dialog select:
- Compression Type: DV/DVCPRO-NTSC (or DV-PAL) and make sure that:
- Frame Rate: 29.97 (or 25), Quality is Best, Scan Mode: Interlaced, Aspect Ratio: 4:3 (or 16:9 if anamorphic)
- In the +Sound > Settings+ dialog select:
- Format: Linear PCM, Channels: Stereo (L R), Rate: 48000, Quality: Normal, Sample size: 16 bits
The result is a .mov file (not .dv) that doesn't need rendering when imported to FCE to a sequence with setup DV-NTSC (or PAL).

Thanks Ba$va

Hi Basva,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to remove all existing association for all users
The $users = $web.AssociatedMemberGroup.Users | where IsDomainGroup -eq $false is to get all users in Contributors group. You can change the line to
$users = $web.AllUsers, then run the script, compare the result.
Here is an post for getting all users using PowerShell, please take a look at:

Export from PC for Mac use.

I'm a PC and need to export files suitable for a Mac user. Currently files are NTSC DV avi's. What generic format to export so they can view and/or play in iMovie etc.
I'm sure it's Quicktime mov but there are so many different flavours/codecs and I don't use Mac so where to start? I'm on CS5.5 and I also have Quicktime Pro.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know anything about imovie, but NTSC DV is the native SD format for Premiere on mac.

Exporting from iMovie for additional editing?

I have an iMovie sequence that took a long time to edit, but I need to export the footage to another editing app (GoPro Studio). I invested a LOT of time creating the iMovie, but need to merge much of it with other GoPro footage. GoPro studio has a few features that can adjust for GoPRo wide angle lens etc that iMovie can't do.
I am concerned that once the footage has been rendered/exported FROM iMovie then rendered again in GoPro studio for final, that I will have an extra generation of interpolation that will further degrade the image quality. Is there a LOSSLESS export option form iMovie? (I'm using the most recent version)
I'm obviously not a pro video editor, but I am a pro photo retoucher, and would never create a second copy of a file using JPG format. I'm assuming that video rendering (exporting) also INTERPOLATES the pixels, resulting in a noticeable image degradation.
So is there a "LOSSLESS" export option? Or a format that is virtually indistinguishable form the original? I hope I'm being clear enough on this.
thanks!

Do you have a MobileMe account? If so an alternative is to publish directly from iMovie to a MMe gallery. You can include several sizes of the same movie in the gallery to accommodate visitors with different connection speeds. This demo page has an example: Adding a MMe Gallery from iMovie 09.
Or, there are a couple of ways of embedding a QT movie into a web page that does not require the movie to load with the page, only when the play button is selected. See these demo pages: Opening Item in a New, Precisely Sized Window and QT Movies via Export for Web in QT Player.
This demo page has seven examples of the first method: PhotoPresenter Animated Slideshow Themes
