External Monitoring...how is it for you and what for the future (CS5)

With the prospect of CS5 on the horizon and many of us considering it as the opportunity to up spec O.S,, software and hardware simultaneously (largely due to 64-bit)...I am wondering how everyone is getting on with their external monitoring solutions and what the expectation is for CS5.
In my opinion the way it is now (in CS4) is less than professional and needs sorting out (hopefully in CS5).
Issues are : Video / audio / synching internal and external devices so all play together.
Premiere Pro runs two playback / preview systems : One for scrubbing and source monitoring;  the other for Program playback /preview.
(Example : Observe how and when audio plays through the audio mixer or observe what and when video plays through external or internal monitor...then note what happens when you PUSH PLAY - spacebar)
Without repeating the problems in depth, I would like to say how I wish it worked for me as an editor in a Pro environment with clients that  sit in my suite as we work together.
I have  a two monitor NLE set up plus one external for client viewing (and also for grading /CC).
I need the External Monitor (Video & Audio)  and the Internal Monitor (Video and Audio) to playdown together.  I dont want one to stop and the other to function.
I want them both working simultaneously playing video and audio.  Am I supposed to get out of my chair to wander over to the client monitor to see the changes we just discussed then I actioned in the timeline?  !!!!!!
A feature request : I would also like to be able to access the Playback Monitoring via Shortcut keys or On Screen buttons.  It is very handy to be able to playback on the second monitor  but it should be defaulted at 100% (Not Fit - as per the Program Monitor)
As regards HD.  One should not have to install 3rd Party cards to monitor HD externally.  The problem with that is one then needs to use the Presets from that card manufacturer.  The Presets , eg P2 work so well in PPRO...so why do we need to mess with 3rd party drivers just to monitor.

Exactly!
I just like to let people know where is the origin of that shortcut (in previous CS editions it was in PROJECTS menu bar tab, and since CS4 it is in SEQUENCE menu bar tab....
I was trying to figure out what do you thing my "atom like button" )))
Finally figured out that it is the RGB icon (which is more the molecule then atom), but you gave me a hard time looking for atom!!! I thought it is in 3rd place, somewhere, as well - but "Atom" almost remained misteri
Anyway, interestingly enough, I just succeeded in getting my picture out on EXTERNAL CRT monitor through DV-monitoring in playback settings - FireWire through my scope (deck) and to TV....
And picture appeared.... But stood still.... Wouldn't move.... except when scrubbing... But when press PLAY it froze both on external DV monitor and  PPRO program monitor in software!!!
Maybe it is my old ATI 3850 HD VGA - and maybe it just can't work!!!!
This pisses me off a bit!!!
I have unpacked copy of new AVID MEDIA COMPOSER 5 - which I have decided not to install until I am through with searching all new possibilities in CS5....
But now, I feel more and more like opening and installing it ----- Just to see how is it managed there!!!
It is hard for me ---- even to think to leave ADOBE ------ it is already enough that 80% of my Clients first ask me "DO YOU HAVE AVID".... and then, to half of them I somehow explain that it is gonna be better if we give ADOBE a chance, and the other half is just hard on their flexibility --- they've heard everything in Hollywood is edited in AVID, so they want their project to be the same....
And I was having a real hard time defending PPRO for years, preventing my Clients to make me switch to AVID - and look what ADOBE did to me now - ADOBE made me reach for my AVID MC v5 and install it and have it ready to take over any project, including the one I am working on right now!
Why, Adobe, Oh, Why!?

    It looks you are new to PI,
    you have to develop scenario end to end, by creating source data type and target data type(if you have XSD's not required),then use Graphical mapping (message mapping) to map source and target structures.
    Search in sdn for one end to end scenario you will understand easily

  • Whisch one is correct for undo_retention and what is the difference

    Hi ALL,
    whisch one is correct for undo_retention and what is the difference
    SQL> select max(maxquerylen) from v$undostat;
    MAX(MAXQUERYLEN)
    6060
    SQL> select max(maxquerylen) from dba_hist_undostat;
    MAX(MAXQUERYLEN)
    17221

    hi Afzal,
    you can use begin_time & end_time of v$undostat -> to specify the time interval of your interest.
    A brief note, of what you have discussed here:
    maxquerylen
    Identifies the length of the longest query (in seconds) executed in the instance during the period. You can use this statistic to estimate the proper setting of the UNDO_RETENTION initialization parameter. The length of a query is measured from the cursor open time to the last fetch/execute time of the cursor. Only the length of those cursors that have been fetched/executed during the period are reflected in the view.
    V$UNDOSTAT is dynamic, showing current stats.
    DBA_HIST_UNDOSTAT displays the history of histograms of statistical data to show how well the system is working. The available statistics include undo space consumption, transaction concurrency, and length of queries executed in the instance.This view contains snapshots of V$UNDOSTAT
    hope it help.
    regards,

    what is the relevence of MD04 for SD and what r the things we hav to look

    Hi Venkata,
    MD04 will show a collection of the incoming and outgoing stock changes.
    And for SD, it will display the content in table VBBE and VBBS (single requirement and total requirement).
    The content was updated when the schedule line category is configured as relevant for requirement transfer.
    And I often use MD04 together with CO09 to estimate/check a ATP checking result.
    Hope this could do help!

  • I was playing with my ipad settings (it's an older model) and noted in the advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view website databases.  When I clicked on this I saw websites.  How do these get there and what does the space amount mean?

    I was playing with my ipad settings and noted in he advanced settings of Safari there was a place to view "website databases".  When I selected this I saw a multitude of websites.
    Can anyone tell me how these get there?  Can a website be posted even if it was never went to?  What does the space amount mean?  For example, 1.5 kb...is this quite a bit?  Would it indicate someone has gone to a site multiple times?
    I share my ipad with my teenage daughter and I'm trying to find out if she's lying to me.  Obviously she's swearing that she has "no idea" how these got there and I'm trying to keep her safe (she's only 14).
    Thanks everyone.

    Think of your PC and the 'temporary internet folder' where it keeps cached copies of web pages or elements off a web page for 'quicker display the next time you visit'. That's pretty much what that folder is. 1.5K is tiny. Probably just a basic page with some text on it. (you might be confusing 1.5K with 1.5 megabyte....megabyte is large...it's roughly 1000 kilobytes, so the 1.5K is a tiny file)
    As far as I know, the only way info gets into that folder is if the browser has been to that site.
    if you have a concern there are browsers out there, McGruff is one i've seen recommended, that allow some degree of parental control and supervision. That or you could passcode lock the iPad or enable the restrictions to turn off some parts of the device to have some control.

  • Colorblind red/green, how does that affect PS and what are the options.

    Like so many men, I am Colorblind (not in full) for red/green.  As a photographer I manipulate pictures like all of us. My main tools are LR-3 and PS-5.
    I operate in the Pro-Photo colorspace on am Imac with a Eizo graphical monitor all calibrated.
    The problem arrises when I start to work on skin and other elements, as I am coloblind (partial) my manipulations tend to result in a bit to redisch pictures. A comment I receive many times.
    I don't see it that way, but after a colorblindness test it was comfirmed.
    So here is the question:  Is there a tool/colorprofile/colospace or whatever that could be used by me as a red/green colorblind person so that I can manipulate the pictures as I would like to.
    The colorprofile/space/tool would compensate.  Once done with the job I could then simply convert it back to a normal human view.  Does this exist ?
    Note that I always work with graycard and a ColorChecker from X-rite..
    Any recommendation is more then welcome.

    Interesting…  If I understand the issue correctly, you need the opposite of this:
    This shows a person with normal vision how an image will look to a color blind person.  I can see how the opposite may pose quite a challenge for the programmers.

  • HT4914 What about my physical CD collection... Can I upload this to the Cloud BIT for BIT and what is the quality of the playback from the Cloud...is it BIT for BIT?

    Please answer?

    ... Can I upload this to the Cloud BIT for BIT
    No. iTunes Match is what it implies... it finds a "match" in iTunes' immense library.
    None of your CD's content is actually uploaded to iCloud.
    In short, there is no substitute for a backup of the device containing your iTunes Library.

  • Object Relational Mapping - How to? - With SQLJ? - What brings the future?

    Hi there,
    we are developing applications for masterdata
    maintainance and masks with fast user interaction using a two-tier architektur and a layered java application on the client.
    Currently we are using TOPLink for the ORM stuff.
    As we need a simple and efficient way to encapsulate gui stuff from database interaction i am interessted in SQLJ for the descripted purpose.
    These are my questions:
    1. Can I use SQLJ with a Oracle database lower than 8i
    2. Is there a runtime fee for SQLJ?
    3. How does SQLJ relate to the app server
    hpye?
    4. Where can I get SQLJ?
    5. Do I need JDeveloper in combination with SQLJ or can I use any other IDE?
    Thanks for your input.
    Regards,
    Wolfgang Rothmayer.

    SQLJ is actually orthogonal to use of ORM. It is an embedded language API for (static) SQL database access in contrast to JDBC.
    If you are using SQL Object types (Oracle 8i and later) then there is the JPublisher tool to map these into Java classes.
    Oracle also provides the BC4J (Business Components for Java) product for object-relational access. This is used mostly in conjunction with JDeveloper.
    So from an ORM perspective you would not be asking for SQLJ.
    To the SQLJ-specific questions:
    1. Yes. SQLJ relies on Oracle JDBC for database access. Oracle 7.2 and later can be accessed.
    2. No.
    3. SQLJ can be used in any tier - just like JDBC can.
    4. In the OTN download area. It is also part of all Oracle database releases since 8.1.5.
    5. SQLJ comes with a command line interface (similar to Javac). It is also directly supported in the Oracle server-side JavaVM, which has an integrated Java compiler and SQLJ translator.
    IBM VisualAge for Java has added support for SQLJ. For other IDEs you would be on your own, though I have heard that JBuilder users have been able to integrate SQLJ in their IDE (if somebody sends us a recipe for using SQLJ in their favorite IDE, we'll be happy to include that in future distributions). SQLJ could be integrated either through the commandline, or -for tighter support- through its IDE interface package in sqlj.framework.ide.

  • External monitor, how to switch of internal monitor

    With a second, external monitor, how do I switch of or darken the internal iMac monitor? In particular together with a beamer the screen light is disturbing. (however it works seemless great with a 720p beamer!)

    Hello Joe.
    System Preferences : Displays: Brightness bar is at the bottom.
    This will allow you to darken the screen a bit, and is currently the only way I know that will allow you to do what you want.
    For faster access you can select the "show displays in menu bar", which will allow you to access the Displays system preferences pane from the menubar at all times.

  • I'm getting error messages when I download updates for lightroom and flash for the mac. can't figure out how to trouble shoot.

    I'm getting error messages when I download updates for lightroom and flash for the mac. can't figure out how to trouble shoot.

    It sounds as if your browser and some of your apps are not color-managed.  This is pretty typical.  Even IE9 is only partially color-managed.
    You can expect color-managed and non-color-managed applications to show you different things with the same images.  How different will depend upon how different your monitor color profile is from the image's color profile.
    For web publication and most general use, experts usually advise saving images with the sRGB profile.  If such images, saved through the Save for Web & Devices function, look different to you than you expect, it may be that your input images have previously been saved in another color space.
    You should really try to get your head around color-management by reading more on it.  It can seem baffling and it's difficult to understand without some background.  A quick web search turns up many overviews.  Beware, though, even people writing articles sometimes don't fully understand it.
