Fastest way to create subtitles

Hi! What is the fastest way to create subtitles. I have a short film with one hundred subtitles. I have a text list with time codes, can I use that somehow? Or do I have to enter every subtile separately? And what are the basic settings?

A possibility seems to be using Quicktime Pro to add your text to a Quicktime movie. The Apple instructions are in Text Track Tutorial. I never used it in real life,... but I tested it in the past and it seemed to be doing what I expected: to layout text over an existing movie at preassigned timecodes...
For sure you must first adapt your text and timecodes to the required format, and most of all you must have the "original" timecode in your movie untouched (all timecodes your text is making reference to). But if you edited and exported your movie from FCE you lost the original timecodes... so I'm not sure this may help you.
The other approach is manual: in FCE add a text clip at the correct timecodes, one at the time...

Fastest Way To Create Ultrabeat Instrument From Wav Loop?

Hello, can anyone share the fastest way to create and instrument from a WAV file?
I know you can convert a wav to ESX24 instrument but I use Ultrabeat not ESX.
Im finding my self divinding each shot into region and then exporting that to its own file.
Is there a faster/simpler way?
-Thanks

You're right! It does work, however, if you follow these steps:
1. Right-click on wave file in Arrange and choose "Slice at Transient Markers" or use the corresponding key command.
2. Select all the split regions right-click on them and choose: Convert > Convert to new audio file(s)
3. Again, with all the regions selected choose: Convert to new sampler track.
4. Now launch Ultrabeat. Click on the Import button anc choose the .exs file you've just created (will be located in your project folder). Then drag the audio files into UB as desired.
You could skip Part 3 altogether and simply slice at transients, convert to new audio file(s) and then in a new kit of UB drag them into the sample window of OSC for each part...

Fastest way to create buttons from TOC entries?

I am trying to make a TOC interactive by applying rollovers and links to each entry. What is the fastest way to create buttons out of each entry? Would the "create outlines" command be appropriate? As it stands now, I am copying an entry, pasting it into a new frame, aligning it over the original entry, then converting to button and applying behaviors. There's got to be a more efficient way to do this!
Using CS3 Design Standard.
Thanks for any help you can provide.

Matt,

Fastest way to create child class from parent?

As the subject states, what do you folks find is fastest when creating child classes directly from the parent? (esp. when the parent is in a lvlib) I thought I'd post up and ask because the fastest way I've found to get working takes a few steps.
Any suggestions ae appreciatized!
-pat

Thanks for the quick response Ben!
Yea, I apologize, in your response I realize my OP was more than vague haha (it hapens when you get used to your own way of doing things I guess huh)- I'm trying to create a child from a parent so that it has all of the methods that the parent has.
In order to do so I currently have to open and close LV a few times during my current process so that vi's in memory dont get mixed up- Currently I save a copy of the parent class in a sub dir of where it is saved, close out of LV, open the new 'copy of parent.lvclass', save as>>rename 'child class.lvclass', close LV, and open up the project to 'add file', then right click>>properties>>inheritance.
Is this the only way to do this?
Thanks again!

p.s. I'm tempted to steal your cell phone sig, hope you dont mind haha good stuff!

Fastest way to create a track of Whole notes beginning to end

I am trying to create a tapper track consisting of a series or low G (G2) whole notes.
What is the fastest way of doing this. (they really should be quantized) And, they should also be on beat-one only, throughout an occasional meter change.
In logic you could drag blocks. I realize I could simply loop and then convert loop to real midi...
But.. would this run amuck with meter changes. (Remember I just want notes beginning on beat one, and ONLY beat one.
-Thanks

Where you have sig changes, copy the region, and adjust it's length to fit the meter … you only need 1 region, rather than try to anticipate the myriad of time sigs that may crop up.
I understand exactly what you mean, and it makes a lot of sense. I think it's strictly a question of the pattern of usage. If his style when writing is to frequently throw in some odd time sig that he hasn't used much before and is not likely to use again anytime soon, then what you say seems like the best approach. On the other hand, I'm assuming he's more in a situation where he tends to throw in, say, a measure of 2/4, 3/4 or 5/4 every now and then. And it's just a few sigs like that which he tends to use frequently. Therefore it might be slightly easier to have a few regions like that already prepared, and in a place where I can grab them easily. If I have them marked clearly by name and color, I can feel comfortable that I'm avoiding an error. Whereas if I'm creating them over and over again each time I need one, the snap settings and zoom level are relevant, and it's a little too easy to make a careless mistake, if the phone rings at the wrong time.
Also, he sometimes wants whole notes, and sometimes quarter notes. And maybe there are some other variations like this. This would also be a reason to have some material prepared that I can use over and over again.
But of course if one day I decide to emulate Stockhausen and throw in a bar in 142/8 time, it makes sense to create that only when I need it, because if I create that region in advance it probably won't get used much.
So in practice I could picture him doing it a combination of both ways, because chances are certain sigs are used often and others are used rarely. I think it really depends on the writing style, and the pattern of how the unusual sigs are distributed. And also if he sees an advantage in the marking by color. That could be considered helpful, or it could be considered ugly and distracting.

Fastest way to create a group from list of recived emails

I thought this would be as easy as drag and drop but no such luck.
Here's the situation. I had a class of 25 students email me from their mobile phones all using the same subject. Now I'd like to create a mailing list / group so that I can easly contact all of them if need be. I tried creating a new group and dragging all of the emails into it to no avail. I also tried right clicking and checking the menus to see if there were any options which there weren't.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'd be open to using automator or something similar if it worked.
Thanks,
Greg

I think the fastest way to do this is in Mail>Message>Add to Address Book, then in AB>File>New Smart Group>Card:>Was updated After... say yesterday, then select all those & make a new (not Smart) Group to drag them to so it won't change after that.
Unless you could get them all to eMail with some other unique that AB can see as a Group field.

Fastest way to create a KeyboardEvent.ENTER submit function.

Hello, a submit button is on the stage next to a text input field. It must be possible to use both mouse and the enter key to press the button.
What's the fastest and easiest way to add an eventListener to the ENTER key, on the button?

So it would have to be something like this? But now the MouseEvent won't work? Do I really have to create a duplicate of the function for both to work? Seems like a hassle..
submitBtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,handler);
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,handler);
function handler(Event){
if(event.charCode == 13)

Fastest way to create DVD Movies

I have a ton of Mini DV tapes that I want to convert into DVD's. I am not real interested in editing the content. I would just like to have DVD's with automatic chapters inserted either on each day change or on each event (camera record button pressed). Is there a good way to do this? Do I need to purchase software other than iWorks to do this? I tried OneStep DVD on iDVD but that doesn't add any chapters at all.

Well I tried creating a new project with iMovie 8 and added all clips to make one movie file. I was hoping that each clip would result in a chapter. Well after an hour and a half of waiting, no such luck. It seems that I got the same result as using One Step DVD. I have one large movie with no chapters.
So at this point I guess I have to use GarageBand to add chapters? I couldn't figure out how to open the movie and do that though.
Is my best be to do this to install iMovie 6? Will that create the chapters I want automatically? If not, is there other MAC software out there that will do what I want?
I bought a Mac because I thought all this stuff was worked out and made easy. It seems its no easier than the PC. Actually ULEAD on the PC was fairly easy. Any thoughts?

What is the fastest way to create thumbnails in CS6?

Hi All...
I wanted to know if there is a certain way you can take larger images and have them shrink down to a thumbnail size in an automated fashion? Instead of having to load each image and change the dimensions and export the image as a thumbnail? I'm using Web Premium CS6 and also have Lightroom 4. There must be a less tedious method to create a small size and a large size image...
Any thoughts?

You can do this easily using Actions and Batching in Photoshop CS6.
Here are two video tutorials on how to do this in CS6, specifically for creating thumbnails; using actions and batching actions. The guys is a little long-winded but is very comprehensive.
And here's an article on how to do the same thing. It's from 2007 but explains the process nicely.

Fastest way to create DVD from HD

I would like to compile and render a single layer DVD from multiple .M2V files.
The DVD threshold of 4.7GB is required as most projectors here in Asia can not handle multi-layer DVD.
Is there another way to go about compiling and rendering that will decrease processing time? Another format? A modular methodology?
Our processing time using to create M2V files using Compressor is taking more than 8 hours. All advice welcomed!

You need faster hardware. A Powerbook G4 is going to take a long time no matter what you do. Time to upgrade - time is money.

What's the fastest way to create a clipping path?

In CS3 & 4 I've created a bazillion clipping paths via pen tool and mouse. I've also tried using the various selection tools to create selections, then turning those selections into paths and modifying the path. I've roughed in paths then zoomed way up to fine tune them.
Is there any plug-in or other slick method to create clipping paths real quickly? Maybe a Wacom pen would work quicker than a mouse? I haven't tried that. I've tried everything else I can think of.
I happened to notice there are online services that charge like $2.00 to create a clipping path for you. So that either has to be from slave labor or someone has figured out a real fast way to do it.
I'm sorry to repeat a question if it's been answered before. I searched for clipping paths in the Photoshop forum and Adobe returned 0 results.

A Wacom tablet is a must. If you are doing lots of clipping paths, avoid carpel-tunnel, and get the work done easier and faster using the Wacom. I've tried all the sizes and I use a 4x5 because it's all the real estate you need, even on 30" monitors. Other than that, there is no software that thinks like a human can in making discretionary choices. Just get the Wacom and roll. You'll have that pen tool motating at full throttle and even make the labor enjoyable.
Be sure to take your customary 20 minute ergonomic breaks to let your eyes focus and +20 feet away.
Best,
Ken

Fastest way to create a broker instance in GlassFish V3?

Hi,
You've obviously been having problems and have been investigating possible solutions, but as a result I'm finding your mail a bit confusing.
You ask
is there an easy way to launch OpenMQ in GlassFish V3 so that the broker creates the configuration file
glassfish-v3\glassfish\domains\domain1\config\init.conf\imq\instances\imqbroker\props\config.propertiesThis file gets created when the broker starts. Are you getting an error on broker startup?
Note that in Glassfish V3 the embedded MQ broker isn't started automatically when the Glassfish instance starts. Instead, the embedded MQ broker is started lazily when you first try to connect to it. You'll see a message in the server log when the embedded broker starts.
the first thing I noticed in the console log output of GlassFish was a message that said creation of the server.log is not possible:
java.io.IOException: Couldn't get lock for C:\Program Files\sges-v3\glassfish\domains\domain1\logs\server.logThat's the Glassfish server log. Were you able to start the Glassfish instance OK? If you're having trouble starting Glassfish itself, or have general questions about Glassfish on Vista, I would suggest asking in the Glassfish user forum: [http://forums.java.net/jive/forum.jspa?forumID=56&start=0|http://forums.java.net/jive/forum.jspa?forumID=56&start=0]
This is GlassFish V3 bundled with the NetBeans 6.8 final release, installed in the default location on Windows Vista.
I will test on Windows XP and Ubuntu to see if this is caused by security settings (UAC).
Result: works fine there, so it seems to be a Vista / UAC problem.I can well imagine that UAC introduces a few challenges! (For what it's worth, I don't have a Vista machine to hand, but I installed NetBeans 6.8 and the bundled Glassfish V3 on Windows 7 (which also has UAC); this creates runtime artefacts such as the server and broker logs under the user's home directory, presumably to avoid UAC issues.)
If any other readers of this forum have experience with NetBeans + Glassfish + Vista please join in.
I tried to deploy imqums.war, which gives this error message (Tested on Vista):

JS CS3 Fastest way to create a group

I have a selection of about 1050 elements and to create a group I'm using:
var myNewGroup = new Array;
for (i=app.selection.length-1; i>=0; i--) {
myNewGroup.push (app.selection[i]);
var myGroup = app.activeDocument.groups.add(myNewGroup);
This works but it's very slow. I have tried the following:
var myNewGroup = app.selection;
var myGroup = app.activeDocument.groups.add(myNewGroup);
The app.selection approach gives me an Invalid parameter error. What I don't understand is that the working code creates an array and adds each element to the array then a group is created from that array.
With the second approach app.selection is an array so why does this group?

Thanks again Kris,
The document I'm trying this on is supplied not created by me so I should of run a test on a doc a created first, so I did. I made a new A4 doc and place a number of text elements on the page then selected them and ran the script again. Sure enough the selection became a group.
So I went back to the supplied doc and selected a couple of the frame and check under the Object menu , Content and to my surprise the options Graphic, Text, and Unassigned were all grayed out (could not select any).
Yet when I ran:
$.write(app.selection[1].constructor.name+"\n");
the console returns TextFrame and for
$.write(app.selection[1].contentType+"\n");
the console returns 1952412773 (TEXT_TYPE).
So there seems to be an issue with the file not the script. Thanks for you help Kris much appreciated.

Is this the fastest way to create a single color bufferedImage?

Here is my code but it's slow sometimes. Is there a better way?
BufferedImage bi = new BufferedImage(1600,1200, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
int[] rgbs = new int[1600*1200];
for (int j =0; j<1600*1200; j++)
   rgbs[j] = Color.RED;
bi.setRGB(0,0,1600,1200,rgbs,0,1600);

This will be even faster.
int w = 1600;
int h = 1200;
int masks[] = new int[4];
rv[0] = 0xff0000; // red
rv[1] = 0x00ff00; // green
rv[2] = 0x0000ff; // blue
rv[3] = 0xff000000; // alpha
SampleModel sm = new SinglePixelPackedSampleModel(DataBuffer.TYPE_INT,
                                                  w, h, masks);
final int rawData[] = new int[w * h];
DataBufferInt db = new DataBufferInt(rawData, rawData.length);
WritableRaster ras = Raster.createWritableRaster(sm, db, null);
ColorSpace cs = ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_sRGB);
ColorModel cm = new DirectColorModel(cs, 32, masks[0], masks[1],
                                     masks[2], masks[3],
                                     false,
                                     DataBuffer.TYPE_INT);
BufferedImage img = new BufferedImage(cm, ras, false, null);
int value = 0xffff0000; // opaque red.
int l = rawData.length;
// Set the image to solid color of the value
for(int i = 0; i < rawData.length; i++)
    rawData[i] = value;
