FCP Offline/Online Workflow

i am not sure if this is the right forum or even an apple app question (someone direct me to a good sourse if not please) but, I am needing to do offline edit from HDV source and some HDCam source.
Based on my previous method of this in the SD world I would choose the photojpeg codec to save space and then online/uprez.
With HD and a Kona 3 card I dont see HD/SDI (HDSDI) NTSC Photojpeg Anamorphic capture codec. Even when selecting uncompressed HD I get disables view in the capture window so I know that's a card thing but capture the sd downcovert to test the codec I chose the SD Kona I/O and selected the SDI NTSC Photojpeg Ananmorphic codec and instead of reducing the image resolution/pixels and preserving frame size of 720x640 (or whatever is it in cant recall with these numbers in my head right now) its reducing the overall frame size too to like 320x240. i know i can then resize but is there a way to get the HDSDI to low rez photojpeg and not only reduce quality but keep the 16:9.
I tried to adjust the HD codec and reduce quality by 70%...couldnt test cause HDSDI on K3 isn't seeing the sig from HDCam VTR. But the 320x240 would work i just dont want to resize the images/clips.
Anyway, any ideas or help to get me going to capture low rez maintaining 16:9 (with reduced qual through pixels and not frame sizes)for a later uprez. Ive done theis beofre on an hd show about 3 yeasrs agao once, I cannot remember though and it was on FCP too in an offline/online workflow. I think we did it using sd capture from sd source, hmmm with the deck set at anamorphic/squeezed output to ana capture and then it was normal in sequence.
but in this case i am still dealing with small frame sizes 320x240...HELP!

ok, i'll look at the disc's. i think we just downloaded the full codec pack from aja's site..i do know when i check the "show all" box a boat load of codecs show, i believe i've seen one for hd...but any i seen reduced the frame size to something realy small.
i'll double check this new card kona3 and see what it's codec pack is.
thanks and i'll post my findings. geez, this should be simple...go from hdsdi to a low rez codec but keeping the full frame size...that's it done. and then uprez later using dvcproHD (well that's what i am using to save some space and it's a great codec.) but that's how easy it should be...works that way in sd too. i think i need to go in sd anamorphic and set the vtr's output to squeezed...i dunno i'll hopefully find help or figure it out one way or another.
thanks again, keep me posted with ideas..THANKS@!!!!!!

FCP HDSR Online Workflow

I'm editing a 35mm (2 Perf) feature in FCP using a DVCam offline standard workflow. We will eventually online to HDSR which will then be used to conform the film for film-out.
My question...
It is very expensive to have the post place to the HDSR online, and all they are really doing is capturing the HDSR tapes to the FCP sequence. My producer owns a AJA ioHD box and as u can see, I have a powerful computer.
Could we just rent the HDSR deck, and use the AJA box to online it ourselves. I've heard something that we need an internal RAID or something, and that the AJA box might not be able to handle the 4:4:4 color.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Cheers

1. Yes they are. Does that affect anything in this potential process?
Wait, the DVCAM are 29.97 and the HDCAM tapes are 23.98? Whoa... well, I'll stop you here and say hire someone. Your entire offline cut and all of your footage is in a completely different timebase than the masters. This affects EVERYTHING in the process. Now you have to spit out EDLs and convert the EDLs and then make sure that the captured footage didn't slip any frames forward or back. There's a LOT that needs to be done to ensure that you capture the right footage. This isn't something a beginner should tackle. Pay someone, do it right.
2. Is the AJA Kona 3 a card? I assume 4:4:4 is required?
Yes, AJA Kona 3. And I mentioned 4:4:4 because YOU mentioned 4:4:4. Now, are you going to master on HDCAM? Or HDCAM SR? Well, since your footage is already on HDCAM, the damage is done. HDCAM is 3:1:1...yes...you read right. 3:1:1. So going 4:4:4 is pointless. Best to work 4:2:2 (normal) and then just output back to HDCAM. Except you are going to FILM OUT, right?
Hire someone.

EOS plugin and offline/online workflow

Hi all.
Recently shot some footage on a Canon 5d and downloaded the plugin so that I can use Log and transfer to get the footage in.
I was hoping to do an offline first using a proxy codec but the plug-in only does full res.
This is my first foray into the card world. Any suggestions about how I can use the log and transfer window but doing an offline first.
My only thinking is to import the files to ProRes using the log and transfer window then media managing those files to make proxy copies, editing with those and then re linking the sequence to the original camera rushes or the Prores copies
Any suggestions?

First off, unless your system is very dated, there's no reason to go through the offline thing. ProRes reduces the overhead sufficiently to make HD cut pretty much like SD.
That said, it is possible to create an offline/online scenario by simply doing the log and capture normally and then "clone" the resultant clips using Compressor to whatever format pleases you for the offline work. As long as you maintain identical filenames in both source folders, you can cut the offline in a different project and then simply re-link to the full-rez clips to conform.
Good luck!

'effects shot' offline/online workflow...

Hello all,
I've been working on an effect for a 2 second shot in a short film. The film was shot on digibeta, but for working out the effect in After Effects i was given just the 2" shot i need at DV PAL quality. The director is now happy with the effect and ready to move into the online.
BTW - the effect is a sutble glow and contra-zoom around a man as he sits and talks to a lover about his foreseen death... nothing too hectic.
The online is being done elsewhere and all i have to do is provide this little bit... so, what exactly, is the workflow here? I can get the 2" clip at 10/8 bit uncompressed on a harddrive... So do i simply re-connect the media in the After Effects project to the uncompresssed media and export that for the online? Or, is the colour correction meant to be done first, then i take the clip and apply the AE project to it?
I'm a little confused about the correct workflow between me and the online editor, and how we get this effects shot into the final movie... I really appreciate being pointed in the right direction here.
Much thanks in advance.
J.

Thanks Jerry,
I was thinking along those lines.
So I just need to get the 8/10 bit uncompressed file for the 2" clip, import that into the AE project and re-connect to it, then export as same format, and give that to the onliner.
thanks.

HDV offline/online workflow

So, i've looked and looked but can't find a clear answer to this. So hopefully someone will be able help me out.
1) If I've shot HDV but capture footage as DV (downconvert via deck). Will I be able to recapture final edit as HDV. ie will Timecodes match even though the recaptured stuff is HDV?
2) If the answer to the above is yes will any video effects I've applied to the DV timeline remain on the recaptured HDV timeline? I'm thinking mostly about colour corrections and magic bullet effects that I need to view on a client monitor. (I don't have and can't afford a "real" capture card)
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Dual 2.7GHz G5, 5GB RAM Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I understand your point and agree. If I could do all the multi layer editing in Prores422 I would.
But the MacBook Pro is not fast enough for ProRes422 Online work with several layers on the timeline…
this is why most of the work will be done Offline on a mbp and finished Online on a MacPro.

Offline/ Online workflow question

Hi ,
From what I read, when working wih a low res clip ( 720 x 480) in a 1920 project (full res), you have to (right click) SCALE TO FRAME to make your proxy image fit the window. Ok I get that but doesn't that mean that every time I drag a clip on the timeline, I have to keep doing that?
That seems like a pain to always have to SCALE TO FIT for every new clip I drag to the timeline.
Is there a better way?
Thanks

Well, I haven't had the time to build another Pc but my system is:
Quad core 6600 2.6 GHZ
6 Gig ram
470 Nvidia
No Raid system
In the past, I've edit XHA1 footage with no problem
When I dropped the native 5D footage, it plays fine however scrubbing is bad. It's better with res set to 1/4 but still not as good as the XHA1 footage.
So that's why I thought "Offline" Also, I noticed that the ram useage goes way up when attempting to scrub and within 30 minutes, I max out the ram.
It goes from opening the project with 2 gig used to 5.4 gigs used after 30 minutes. I never had this issue with XHA1 footage.
Does anyone know if I install 16 gigs of ram, will "Scrubbing" improve or is that CPU ?

Offline to online workflow in premiere pro

Can anyone tell me how to do an offline to online workflow in premiere pro similar to final cut pro 7? See this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xzOqmQq7bo

Let me know if this makes sense.
Not at all, I'm afraid. By that I mean I understand the process you describe, but not your desire to do it.
You can never get better than the original footage, so transcoding to ProRes after editing makes no sense at all. One might do that before editing if their computer couldn't handle the native media, but...you've already done the editing.
Using Direct Link to SpeedGrade, you can easily work with the original media. This is the faster, easier work flow, and will produce identical end results.

FCP as online?

I am in the process of on lining a series of 50 minutem, cut intensive documentaries (400video edits, speed ramps reverse shots and freeze frames) for Worldwide HD Broadcast. The Programmes were offlined at SD and Project managed to an offline sequence (used media only) and then reconformed at HD. All tapes were meticulously logged and there are no timecode breaks on the source HDCAM tapes. Why then does FCP insist on putting the wrong clips (with the wrong Time code) in various random spots. In some cases the correct clip is sitting in the browser but has not made it into the sequence - in some cases the wrong clip has been digitised. Motion effects are ignored or just plain wrong.
FCP has been doing this for sometime now. Is it an XML issue? Isnt it about time apple sorted this one out? 10% of the clips in the first programme were wrong and I have spent all day eye matching clips back to the guide clip. Does any one know of a solution to this very frustrating problem?

One thing I do when preparing to media manage an offline/online project, is to isolate all my speed-adjusted clips in my offline sequence and put them in a separate sequence where I remove all the speed adjustments. I then include thiis sequence in my media manager step. That way, when FCP changes the timing of a clips that has been speed-adjusted, I have another master clip already logged/captured with the correct in/out that I can use to replace the speed adjusted one.
However, it sounds like you are encountering time shifts in other clips as well, not just the speed adjusted ones. You are probably encountering an issue I often think of as my pet bug. Look closely at the timecode on your tapes in the log and capture window - are they showing as drop frame or non-drop? The timecode display in Log and Capture and Edit to Tape will default to drop-frame, and for non-drop tapes you must play the tape until the timecode display updates to non-drop. This can cause problems in a few places.
1. logging - it is possible to log a NDF clip as DF. Ithis can potentially create clips that do not match the tape TC. You can compare the tc format of the logged clips to the tape, or try match-framing a point on the offline clip and the tape to see if they line up. I have also noticed that once a NDF clip gets edited into a DF sequence, its TC displays as DF under certain circumstances.
2. Capture - If your tapes have NDF TC, and you do a batch capture, it is possible for the batch to initiate while the deck control is in DF mode. The problem here is that once a batch capture has begun, FCP cannot update the timecode format - so if you start with a DF tape, then put in a NDF tape, the NDF tape TC will be read as DF, and shifted by FCP accordingly. The workaround here is to open Log and Capture before starting your batch, playing the tape until you see NDF TC in the current time field, then leave L&C open when you initiate your batch capture.
If this error has occurred when the offline clips were captured, your offline clips willl not match your tapes, and getting the online lips captured correcctly becomes more tedious. However, the issue is much more likely to occur when doing the online recapture, in which case taking that little precautionary step of opening log and capture before you start the batch should usually fix it.
Whe you doing your batch capture, keep an eye on the TC format on your tapes. If you are capturing DF and come across a NDF tape, stop the capture and update the TC format in L&C before starting again.
Hope this helps.

Is it possible to make an OSB Proxy service offline/online based on BS

JMS QUEUE
|
|_____ Proxy Service <-------->Business Service <---------> External System URL
I have a configuration as shown above.
There is a way to make the Business Service offline/online based on the External system URL being offline/online by setting the
Business service-> Operational Settings->Offline Endpoint URIs with a timesatmp.
Is it possible to make the state of the proxy service to enabled/disabled based on this state of BS based on external enpoint URI?
This is a requirement such that the messages in the JMS queue doesnot get lost or consumed when the external system is offline.
Thanks in Advance!

I have thought about this. There are some problems here....
I cannot use the same proxy to invoke the java callout and then based on the code or handler disable it, since
1) i would have no way to enable back the proxy again.
2) Also there is some amount of message loss.
So i will have to use another proxy to do the same, but in this case
1) what would be the trigger to this proxy?
2) And how often do i invoke the java callout to see if the URI is up or not? (wouldnt that affect the performance?)
I am just wondering why did they give an offline URI option in the business service and no similar option in the proxy service, Any Idea?
Thanks

How can i use offline & online database in the same time?

how can i use offline & online database in the same time?
my database in another server when the connection true it connect
but if not does not work
i wanna make offline database if the server not connected it connect offline then the server is on it alter all data from the offline to the server.

User, please tell us your Jdev version!
There is no such functionality build into the framework. The offline data base is only for designing the db, not to have a backup db.
If you can't connect to the db the application will not work.

Offline & online backups????

Hi all,
Why are the advantages & disadvantages of offline & online backups??

Hi Ravi,
Joydeep has described it very well.
Just to add a bit:
If you are wondering what happens to the online redo log files while the online backup is running:
<i>During online backup, BRBACKUP does not backup the online redo log files. Instead, BRBACKUP generates online redo log switches so that all the online redo log files written during the online backup are copied into the archive directory. These offline redo log files then need to be backed up, since an online backup is consistent only in conjunction with these redo log files. The BRARCHIVE program backs up the offline redo log files.</i>
So the idea that during an online backup some redo files might be missed, is explained from the above paragraph.
Regards,
Loukas

AIR - Transactional Offline/Online applcation

Hello,
I'm very new to AIR. I'm very interested in learning it. I
would like to ask one question before learning.
Is it possible to use AIR to develop Offline/Online
application? What I mean by Offline/Online application is that the
application work on offline when the network is down. If the
network is available then it will automatically re-connect with
online services and will sync the offline data to the online
services.
Here is one scenario.
Let's say I have a small application called "Student
Registration Management" system. I have StudentRegistration.UI
(AIR)project and StudentRegistrationService Web Service project.
StudentRegistration.UI project is working fine as long as we have
the network connection. But the problem is that our network
connection is not so stable. sometimes, it used to disconnect for
half-day and etc . So, we are considering to make our project work
Offline.
In order to do that, we are thinking to add another layer
that can switch the proxy class and offline class that can access
to the local database.
For example:
StudentRegistration.UI --> [detect the connection] ->
[if online] call Proxy to invoke the webservice.
-> [if offline] call another class that can connect to
the local database which is located under "My Document" or
"somewhere"
Questions:
Q1. Do you think this is the correct approach??
Q2. Is it possible to connect the MS access database or mdf
from AIR directly? (Note: This MS Access Database or mdf will be
located under under "My Document" or "somewhere" ) If yes, how can
I do that? Do I have to use the "inline" SQL statement too?
Q3. Having one layer that can connect with local database
will add the duplicated effort. Whenever we changed something in
StudentRegistrationService Web service project, we will need to do
the same thing for those offline classes. How can I reduct this
effort?

Hi,
You can definitely built apps with online-offline
capabilities with AIR. You can't connect to an MS Access database,
but AIR has built-in SQLite (a file based DB like MS access) DB
support. Use SQLite to persist data when in offline mode.
The NativeApplication class whose singleton instance can be
accessed via NativeApplication.nativeApplication dispatches an
event (networkChange) whenever any change in the network is
detected. It may be a connection coming back up or a connection
going down. Your application has to listen to this event and then
ping your server URL to see if it is online or offline. By ping,
the meaning here is only a check to see if a particular URL is
accessible using HTTP. There is an AIR class called URLMonitor used
for this.
As far as Q3 goes, you'll have redo the changes you did in
your web services classes in the local version as well. I don't see
a way around that.

SQL Server Enterprise support for Offline / Online Application development

Hi,
We have suggested to use the SQL Server 2012 as Database for our Enterprise application. We have the Offline/Online two set of application. Can you suggest any offline database to sync the Online SQL Server database.
Thanks,
Sethu

What is an offline database?
One can setup an "online" database and an "offline" database using SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition.
SSIS packages can be used to synch data between the databases:
