FCE Import Issues with 720p resolution (from Panasonic GH1)

I cannot import 1280x720, 50fps videos from my Panasonic GH1 using the log and transfer window. If I try, the system crashes. Still they play in the preview window. With full HD everything works fine. I would assume that this format is not supported, since it does not show up in the easy setup menu (only 1920x1080 and 1440x1080 available).
The files imported using iMovie08 can be loaded with no issues. I would assume this is because the have already been converted.
Does FCE definitively not support import of 1280x720 material or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advanced

Hi,
the GH1 shoots full hd 1980x1080 with 25fps (30 for US market). I prefer using 1280x720 (which seems to be AVCHD lite?) with 50fps (60fps for US) which reproduces movement better.
Imovie09 convert those formats (AVCHD 25fps and AVCHD lite 50fps) to AIC while keeping the original format and frame speed. FCE can import the AIC files at the different formats - this I can see from what FCE is telling me in the browser.
In FCE I mixed both formats (1080 at 25fps & 720 at 50fps) in a small project and managed to get this exported to 1080 or 720 at different frame rates. I have not yet figured out what how the movie quality compares to each other, but IT WORKS.
Unless I have forgotten something FCE seems to handle all these formats but crashes as soon as I try to import of 1280x720@50fps files.
Which in fact brings me back to my question why FCE crashes. With all this capability of handling the different formats I would not have expected a program crash during file import. Which in facts makes me doubt if there still is something wrong....
I guess I should better start reading the manual.
Good Luck

IPhoto imports QT with wrong time from Panasonic FX7

IPhoto does not correctly import the time for audio comments recorded with my Panasonic FX7 camera. Does anyone know of a fix (including an Automator program)?
These comments are saved as QT movies (with a still picture naturally, not moving) and are seen in iPhoto as being made seven hours earlier than they actually were. I do not have this problem with either still pictures or "real" QT movies made with the camera (i.e., movies that are recorded in movie mode with motion).
I checked the creation date of the QT files and they are correct in Finder, but I am told by AppleCare that the date iPhoto uses comes from the embedded data within the file. I suspect the problem is that iPhoto thinks that the date/time field (which I cannot see) is UTC (the new name for GMT or Greenwich Mean Time) time, whereas it is probably local time -- which is seven hours behind UTC time right now. Assuming that's the case, iPhoto would subtract seven hours from the correct local time -- which is what I am seeing in iPhoto.
Unfortunately Panasonic is not one of the supported cameras for iPhoto. Hopefully Apple will add support for Panasonic cameras since they are likely to be a bigger player in the digicam market. I was dubious about a Consumer Electronics company making high quality cameras, but when I researched this purchase last Spring, to my surprise, Panasonic was rated better than Olympus (my previoius two digicams) and all other brands in the category for which I was shopping.

When you say your Library, do you mean in the iPhoto Window?
1. Try the options at View -> Sort Photos
2. iPhoto should be reading the photos by the Date they were Taken not the date they were imported. If you wan to see them by the date they were imported, use the Roll view.

Importing issues with Final Cut Pro X. Green flash and twitches while play back

Hello, I'm having some importing issues with Final Cut Pro X and I can't find any solution whatsoever. Perhaps my importing settings are wrong?
Anyways, I've done a lot of recordings on eye TV and HD PVR with some videos that are about 3 hours long. I exported them into H.264 files, which turns them into mpeg-4 files with AAC audio. Then I import them into final cut pro X and I notice it takes a long time for them to render the videos and I notice that there are some green screens and twitches while I play through the video.
Here is a screenshot of the green screen that I'm talking about:

Could it be my 2 video graphics card that is causing this kind of issues? Or is there any solution to fix this?
In the past, I've used iMovie 09 and it worked out perfectly. However, the new iMovie 11 is terrible because it automatically optimzie my 3 hour long videos into making the importing process to (144 hours long to import). Is there any way to get iMovie 09 back or am I stuck on dealing with this Final Cut Pro X issues?

Issues with RAW files from my 7D

I have Aperture 1.5.6 on my computer and the software updater says that is the current version. I shoot with a 20D and a 7D. I upload my raw files to Aperture and edit them from there and then process for a jpeg. However, every time I upload a raw file from my 7D I get the following message when I click on it to edit it: Unsupported Image format.
Any words of advice, other than just buy Aperture 3??

I have Aperture 2.X and had zero issues with RAW files from a 7D, so I think the problem is you are on 1.X. Converting to DNG first was a good suggestion if you don't want to purchase 3.X. Yet another reason to hate proprietary raw image file formats.......

Iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library?

iphoto 9.5.1 will not import videos with .mpg extension from my pictures folder and keep getting a OSStatus error-54. Is there a way I can import such videos to the iphone library? Pls help.

This is what that error means:
-54
permErr
Software lock on file; Not a subscriber [permissions error on file open]
Download and launch BatChmod. Put the videos into a subfolder and drag that folder containing the video files into the Batchmod window. Make sure you are the owner and have R,W, X access as well as the group. Everyone will have R only.
Check the Change ownership and privileges, Unlock and Apply to enclosed boxes and then click on the Apply button. When done try importing the files again.

Issue with Agent Profile from AM 70 OpenSSO interesting issue

Hi All,
I have a specific scenario and if it is not possible then ugrade from AM 7.0 to OpenSSO cant be true.
I have issue with the agent profiles (BTW I am not doing upgrade from AM 7.0 to OpenSSO but its a fresh OpenSSO install)
In AM 7.0 Agent profile is like this (below is the exact export from the AM 7.0)
dn: uid=Test-Agent,ou=agents,o=am
sunIdentityServerDeviceStatus: Active
uid: Test-Agent
objectClass: sunIdentityServerDevice
objectClass: iplanet-am-user-service
objectClass: top
objectClass: iPlanetPreferences
sunIdentityServerDeviceType: Agent
cn: default
sunIdentityServerDeviceVersion: 2.2
userPassword: {SSHA}1w9aOfz1D4bypX292YT2oObVee34BWkgSB3IXQ==
Below is exact import into the OpenSSO (I created this LDIF using my script)
dn: ou=Test-Agent,ou=default,ou=OrganizationConfig,ou=1.0,ou=AgentService,ou=services,o=am
ou: Test-Agent
sunsmspriority: 0
sunserviceID: 2.2_Agent
sunKeyValue: sunIdentityServerDeviceStatus=Active
sunKeyValue: sunIdentityServerDeviceKeyValue=
sunKeyValue: description=
objectClass: sunServiceComponent
objectClass: top
sunKeyValue: userpassword={SSHA}1w9aOfz1D4bypX292YT2oObVee34BWkgSB3IXQ==
Now you can see the issue in AM 7.0 the password is stored as "userPassword: {SSHA}1w9aOfz1D4bypX292YT2oObVee34BWkgSB3IXQ==" where by directory server userpassword is SSHA encrypted VS in opensso it is "sunKeyValue: userpassword={SSHA}1w9aOfz1D4bypX292YT2oObVee34BWkgSB3IXQ==" which OpenSSO doesnt like .. :)
If i create a Agent from the opensso Console then Agent create a password using AES encryption and and that works fine even when I import my above LDIF and update the password using the OpenSSO console it also works. The issues I have this I dont know all of the Agent clear text password and I only have the LDIF to work with. Any thought !! Please let me know I am stating to believe that the upgrade from AM 7.0 to OepnSSO will have the same issue which i have not tried yet.
Anythoughts or ideas are very welcome !
-Haris

Configuring the agent like this, ie importing a ldif file is not supported and can lead to unexpected results as you have observed. Just do it in a supported way and change the password for the agent if you don't know it. As the administrator you are supposed to know the password or have the power to reset it.

Issues with exporting video from MacBook Pro to flash drive

I cannot sucessfully transfer [export] video taken on my gopro camera, from my MacBook Pro to any flash drive and play them on other computers. For some reason the files are not playable, even with quicktime. They will not play with ANY of my video softwares such as divx or any AVCHD software on a windows computer. I need to make a presentation for a club trip in a few days! Can any one please suggest what is wrong? They play on the Mac using Flip player but not quicktime!
Oh, and I don't have issues with transfering or exporting Jpegs or other photo formats. Only video.
Message was edited by: gmob25

hmmm.. the files from GoPro are already mp4 format. The Flash is already FAT32, brand new 16gig...
I am new to Macs but have no problems with PC's. I suspect that because the files are exporting as shadowed files which won't play and are very small kb files, yet they are actually in excess of 140 mb each that it might have something to do with the iphoto software? That's where the pics and video are, they imported to there by default, not to a folder in the home folder [which is where I would have expected them to be]
By the way, the GoPro is already in mp4 format so it is easy when transferring to computers. No need to convert. I tried converting them to see what the outcome might be, and none worked! I tried every format I could find using Video converter ultimate software, which is excellent.
And the problems began when quicktime wouldnt play the file, the screen was black.

Log and transfer footage from Panasonic GH1 into FCE

I have already read the few threads discussing importing AVCHD video from the Panasonic GH1 camera into FCE. I was expecting that the 1080x24 (wrapped in 60i) would import OK but the 720x60p would not. However, so far, I have had both formats import using the log and transfer just fine. These have been only short clips roughly a minute or less in length but no sign of FCE crashing when importing the 60p footage.
So, is this considered normal or has something in the most recent OSX updates fixed this FCE capability?

The program is usually able to ingest 24p and 60p footage fine, but upon exporting it will be conformed to the frame rate of your sequence. Since FCE doesn't support custom sequences all exported movies are either in 29.97fps or 25fps. Problems also sometimes arise where the program interprets your footage as 29.97fps instead of what it actually is, causing the audio to drift a bit as well.
Better to stick to what the program supports: 50i/25p and 60i/30p. If you need the functionality of 24p or 60p you should upgrade to Final Cut Pro.

Import issue with Lightroom

I upgraded to LR5.2 2 weeks ago from 4.3. Install went fine, but I'm now having issues when importing my photos, Lightroom hangs partially through the import. The only choice I have then is to force quit the program, which then freezes my computer. Getting to be an invredibly frustrating exercise.
I have an iMac with OSX10.8.5 (Mountain Lion)
Lightroom 5.2
Importing & converting CR2 files (5DMkIII) to DNG.
Images being imported to an external hard drive.
Nothing has changed in my workflow or software except for the installation of LR5. I did read in some of the forums that there was import issues that appear to have been fixed with the latest release, however, whilst I DEFINTIELY have the latest release of LR5, this is still occurring. Any ideas? Another bug?
Cheers
Sarah

sure did. All permissions are admin & I'm it. I haven't tried DL via image capture - LR4 gets me to the same end goal, tis just rather onerous to have to muck around with this twice. Appreciate your taking the time on this

Issue with screen resolution

Hi,
I need my VI to run on different screen resolutions.
But the problem is that when the resolution changes the controls get distorted and i have to restart the applicaiton to bring the screen to origional form.
I need to resize the controls according to the window size so i have checked the option to "scale objects while resizing".
I think this is why the controls get distorted besause of resizing.
Is there any solution if want to keep both options for resizing and adjusting the screen for different resolutions.
Regards
Gagan

When you resize a VI automatically, the original size is not cached, thus changes are permanent. If you resize again, the changes start from the changed values, not the original values. Factor in the some integer roundoff issues and you have your problem. In addition, different versions of LabVIEW have varying degrees of distortion as you change the screen size and system controls have limits on how they can change their size. The only way to guarantee nice looking, scaleable panels is to do it all yourself programmatically (change location, size, and font sizes). This is tedious, but straightforward, and you should only have to do it once. It is made more difficult by the fact that there is no standard way to change the size of a control. Use the event structure to determine when your panel has been resized. Use the Defer Panel Updates property to speed the process. In addition, you probably want to throttle the events so you don't get behind in processing them. The easiest way to do this is to compare the new size reported by the Panel Resize event with the value from a property node which reads the panel size. If they are equal, process the event. If they are not, do nothing. The last event will always be processed because the sizes will be the same.
Good luck! Let us know if you run into difficulties.

Lightroom 5 auto import issues with nikon d90

Hoping someone can help answer my question - I am wondering if Lightroom 5 has any issues with the auto import or tethering feature using a Nikon d90? I was using Lightroom 2 and the auto import feature has no issues with my d90. After I installed Lightroom 5 (Cloud App) and ran it for the first time, the first thing I used was the tethering feature and it worked great for 4 shots. I turned my camera off and then back on again and LR would not recognize my camera any longer for tethering. What's strange is that it will detect it for "Importing from Device" option. So, I went to plan two which was to auto import and that wasn't working at all. I am at a loss. I have a shoot coming up this weekend and need for one of these options to work. Any help is appreciated!!!

I use a D90, but I have never tried tethered shooting with it. Other users might have some suggestions for you, but looking at the list of supported cameras for tethered shooting the D90 is not "officially" supported in Lightroom. So you're probably on your own to find solutions. I know this isn't a lot of help.

Issue with a load from R3 to BW 3.5

Hi Guys,
We are having an issue here with a load from R3 to BW 3.5 to an ODS and
a transactional infocube.
In a daily basis we are running loads to BW from R/3 infosets and all
of them but one loads fine.
The one that is having problems is actually the one that loads more
data, therefore the infopackage is divided into two infopackages.
In the update rule of the first ODS we are running an initial routine
in which we are doing a RSDRD_SEL_DELETION (selective deletion) of the
data to be loaded to both the ODS and the infocube, and is actually
here where we got the core dump.
Our first assumption was that maybe there was any yellow request in the
transactional infocube avoiding the selective deletion but we have
discarded this.
We think that, as the only one failing is the one that divides into two
infopackages, the problem might be that at the moment that the first is
triying to delete the second one is loading data into the ods and there
we get the dump.
The question here is ¿Could this be the problem? ¿How could we
workaround this if this is the case?
Thanks for any suggestion.

Hi,
Be carefull on ODS activation, if you're using 2 infopackage and/or deleting data from an ODS which is lock for an activation, you'll occurs a dump.
Check SM12 / ST22 / SM21 and job logs in SM37.
And if pb still occurs for a load, debug it in start routine.

Issue with file download from BLOB type data

i have been using this for a while, with no problems, including on hosted machines.
the upload to the database works fine.. not the issue, and the download script also works fine, on the local WAMP machine.
but once moved to the server it fails.. the query does not work.
i have a feeling that it is something to do with the managed hosting i am using, but they say no, i have tried it on 2 seperate hosted machines (different providers), with no joy.
if i run the select query on the hoisting server via phpmyadmin, the query runs ok.
any suggestions as to what may be causing the problem on the server compared to the local WAMP machine?
i really don't know where to start looking, or where to point the hosting company.
This is the php code to download the blob data, works fine on local WAMP setup, browser asks if you want to save the file/open etc. as expected.
<?php require_once('Connections/connTracker.php'); ?>
<?php
// if id is set then get the file with the id from database
if(isset($_GET['docindex']))
           {$id    = $_GET['docindex'];
        $query = "SELECT document_name, document_type, document_size, document_content " .
           "FROM tracker_documents WHERE document_index = ".$id;
*** seems to be failing here when running the query ***
$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
           list($name, $type, $size, $content) = mysql_fetch_array($result);
     header("Cache-Control: maxage=1"); //In seconds
   header("Pragma: public");
     header("Content-length: $size");
           header("Content-type: $type");
           header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$name");
           echo html_entity_decode ($content);}
exit;

Hi Gun,
You are the only one responded to my issue. I have allocated some points.
Yes. I have checked the assignment in CRM organizational model.
I did download the org. structure from ECC 5.0
All objects including sales offices are activated for determination and I have verified with green light
As per your suggestion if the sales area data is not matched between the two systems, then how come the error will not reappear during the bdoc reprocess?
What is missing during the first time bdoc process? Looks something is missing for validation module?
Any inputs?
Thanks,
Raj
