Field Dominance settings for rough edit

I'm working on a project that will be finalized in HD elsewhere from a variety of sources, HDcam, Targa files, SD, etc. I'm doing the rough edit and will export an EDL (possibly through Automatic Duck to be finalized in Avid, not sure about that yet). I'm not doing any effects, just getting the right clips in the right order. I'm working from DVcam dubs only (firewire import)of the source material. I know the post house already has some of the HD material on hand and it is upper field dominant. DVcam of course is lower field dominant. Do I need to change the settings to upper field or not set, or is this something the post house will deal with when it imports the final video?

Don't change any settings... it won't affect the EDL anyway.

It's difficult to know the difference for these so-called "table name"...

What's actual meaning for these table names? Where can I find related document and actual corresponding transparent tables for these so-called talbes?
Thanks and best regards

Hi Neelima,
Thanks a lot.
Checked the SAP note, but I could not find corresponding infomation about that, kindly please advise again.

Field Dominance Settings on 720p

I'm working in a 720p 30fps sequence with a mixture of NTSC, 1080i, and 720p footage -- with the majority being NTSC.
What should the sequence field dominance settings be: lower, even, or none?
The other sequence settings are HDTV 720p 16:9. Square pixels, 29.97 time base.

Despite it being early, Tony is correct. None for Field Dominance with 720p material.
Is there a particular reason you're using a custom sequence setting like that though?

Hi ,
Looking at the question the first thing that comes to my mind is what is the organization structure that you are following .
As you have mentioned that you have used segment insted of profit center for splitting , what is the scope of profit center in your implementation .
in implementations where locations are devided as profit centes it becomes very necessary to mandatorily split the documents based on profit center .
in your case as you have set it as segment i dont find it an issue of you keeping it as optional as it will not give you and error during your operations , as you have made profit center optional in splitting charcteristics .
hope this suffices .

Offline To Online Changes Field Dominance Settings?

Hi - I have an offline DV PAL sequence that I am taking online to 10-Bit Uncompressed PAL.
To my understanding PAL is Upper field dominance, and all my sequences and source files in the offline DV project are upper. However when I check the Uncompressed online project, many of the files (subclips especially) are set to Lower.
My question is this - since it's easy to change fd for clips by just right clicking in the browser, if I just set the incorrect clips' Field Dominance to Upper and make sure the shift fields filter is not enabled, can I be certain there will be no field dominance issues?
Maybe more importantly - what is the best way to determine if you have any field dominance issues? Is simply watching it on a monitor/television going to be obvious if something is wrong? Any way to check on the computer?
Thanks everybody,

Field dominance depends on the format, not the standard (pal,ntsc).
DV is lower field dominant be it PAL or NTSC, and uncompressed is upper field dominant.
For true monitoring, you'll need to view your image through an external broadcast monitor... a CRT television should be suitable for monitoring field issues (i believe... i'm sure i'll be corrected if that's wrong).
The only obvious thing to look for is 'combing'... the lines (fields) that appear around the edges of a subject on the screen, especially when there is a lot of on-screen movement.
Just out of curiosity... why are you taking a DV sequence into 10-bit uncompressed? Doing graphics etc?

Field Dominance Settings 1080 60i

Hello -
I have footage shot with Sony HXR NX5U. Shot on 1080 60i.
What should be the Field Dominance settings be? Upper, Lower, or None?
I exported the final project to Dual Layer DVD. When people are moving hands fast or dancing. Its does not look like a smooth hand movement.
Are my settings wrong somewhere?
Thank you,

Best workflow:
export from fcp with current settings
bring this file into compressor and use the appropriate DVD preset
The smartest thing to do is a short test with a section with a lot of movement and try the 3 different options. You might also consider deinterlacing in compressor in the frame controls.

Field Dominance Question for Sequence

I shot my video in DVCPro50 format at 30p. I have edited my video in a DV50 sequence. I am ready to take to a production house to be transferred to BetaSP. In the past with other videos I take the finished sequence and nest it into a Uncompressed 8-bit NTSC sequence and that is what I give to production house. In this Uncompressed 8-bit sequence should I select Field Dominance: None or Field Dominance: Lower (even)?
Thanks for your help!

If someone could help me out to confirm this. I would rather do this right than find out when my commercial is broadcast that I messed up the field dominance.
My final sequence is being transferred to BETASP. I take to the production house an uncompressed 8 bit NTSC sequence.
If I understand this correctly my uncompressed sequence will have a field dominance of lower if the original footage was SD.
If my original footage was HD than my uncompressed sequence should have the field dominance set to upper.
So the uncompressed sequence that is transferred to BETASP has a field dominance set by the original footage?
Thanks for taking the time with this.

Field dominance setting for progressive footage?

I'm still not sure about this subject.
I film with a Canon HF100. This is shooting progressive footage. I use a Imac, therefor the footage will be imported from a achvd to .mov files.
When I import it in FCE it will give automatically a fielddominance of upper odd. I heard I had to change it to fielddominace none. By mistake I edited a project without changing from Upper odd to none and there was nothing wrong with the project.
1. Is this true?
2. And why do I have to change it? What's the (technical) reason (try to understand it) and why doens't this go automatically?
Thank you!!

1) yes
2) ... field-dominance is a matter with interlaced footage ... in the older days, the many lines of a frame were splitted into two fields: even and odd lines. and funny as engineers often like to be, the odd lines (1,3,5,7,9, ... = don't neccessarily have to be the first (=dominant) field (.dv for instance: 'first' field is the even one 2,4,6,...)
progessive has no fields = no field dominance
but ..
some cams read out the chip progressive, but record the p frame as two identically i-fields! ... phewwww
summary:
if it works, don't change it ...

Set field cataglog dynamically for an editable table

Hi All,
I have a requirement where to show a table whose field catalog will be changed conditionally( dynamically ) and that table has to be editable, in that table few columns could be Drop down fields and few columns are disabled and few can be normal editable fields.
What is the best way to do it, this i can achieve very well by in dynpro with CL_GUI_ALV_TABLE class, i am new to WDA , so i couldn't find the good solution.. whether to use direct table element or ALV component. can i acheive the above functionality with either of the option.
Appreciate your help.

DATA: wd_table TYPE REF TO iwci_salv_wd_table.
DATA: column_settings TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_column_settings,
column TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column.
Create an instance of ALV component created ALV_COMP is usage name
wd_table_usage = wd_this->wd_cpuse_alv_comp( ).
IF wd_table_usage->has_active_component( ) IS INITIAL.
wd_table_usage->create_component( ).
ENDIF.
wd_table = wd_this->wd_cpifc_alv_comp( ).
alv_config_table = wd_table->get_model( ).
column = column_settings->get_column( 'MANDT' ).
column->set_visible( if_wdl_core=>visibility_none ).
There are many other Methods in class cl_salv_wd_column.
For editable Colums (and DropDown e.g.) have a look at this tutorial:
[SND-Tutorial - Conditionally Assigning Colors and Input Enable to ALV Columns|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/f0625002-596c-2b10-46af-91cb31b71393]
Hope it helps!

Order of Precedence in Field Selection settings for Vendor Master

Hi,
There are three transactions which help define the list of mandatory, optional, suppressed and finally display only fields during vendor maintenance.
These are,
OMSG -> Define Account Groups and Field Selection( Vendor)
OMFK -> Define Screen Layout Specific to Purchasing Organizations
OMSX -> Define Transaction-Dependent Screen Layout.
All these settings are independently maintained.
In case of conflicting settings, say for example, Field Name 1 is made mandatory with tcode OMSG, but suppressed with tcode OMFK, how does the Vendor transaction(XK01, FK01, MK01) behave.
How are these conflicts resolved ?. Is there any order of precedence.
Regards,
Jeron

Hi,
If both purchasing organizations have separate account group then you can very well achieve in customizing otherwise you need to control it in exit SAPMF02K

Field Group settings for MB21 and MB22

Dear Friends,
Can someone guide me how can i perform changes to grey out certain fields on the transactions MB21 and MB22 for reservations.
Appreciate your quick assistance.
Thanks

Hi,
You can use OMBW and configure the field selection for certain movement type. This will also
be reflected in MB21.
Thanks and regards,

Will setting sequence field dominance to "NONE" effect resolution?

First, thanks all for the title help. It looks like i might have it licked. From this point however comes a new question.
The only way to keep my titles clear and free from flicker is to set the imported livetype .mov file's field dominance to "none" and place it in a sequence that also has a field dominance set to "none". Great. now i need to put the title sequence on my master time line (project time line of 1hr 20min) which exists in a sequence set to the standard field dominance of "Lower" and which is made up of an hour and a half worth of clips that are all set to "lower" as well.
My question(s) is this-
While i understand what field dominance is doing as an upper and lower, what does none do?
Currently the project (under the settings above) is rendering as i have changed the master sequence's FD setting to none. I haven't changed the individual clip settings to none due to my ignorance on the issue, only the title sequence has the same settings. Put another way- I'm currently rendering a sequence that has its field dominance set to "none". On this sequence, i have several clips that have their field dominance set to "lower", and one clip (my livetype title clip) has its field dominance set to "none". I've done all this in order to prevent flicker on my livetype scrolling titles.
Q: Should i do this?
Q: Will i suffer a loss of resolution on the clips that have a field dominance that is different from their sequence?
Q: Will keeping them different effect the export and eventual dvd burn of the project?

Your better off NOT making a movie from LiveType, but importing the LiveType project file and rendering in FCP. Leave your field dominance settings to match your clips. If you set to NONE, that is for Progressive scanned footage. You will lose clarity on your clips. But don't just ask and listen here... do it. Change the sequence from Lower to None and look very closely at a still frame. You will see that you have lost the "jaggies" but at the cost of edge clarity.

Field Dominance Setting question

Hi
Just read an article suggesting setting the field dominance setting to 'none' to reduce the interlace on progressive footage on renders?
I have checked the FCP manual and it doesn't specify a prefered setting for 1080i50, which I have been filming in.
Could anyone clarify or suggest pro's and con's of the field dominance settings options?
thanks

For 1080i50, you should leave field dominance at Upper. The sequence field dominance (field order is a more accurate term) should be the same as that of the source footage. Stick to that rule and you'll be OK. For progressive sources it's None. For interlaced HD format sources, it's Upper. For SD interlaced sources it's Lower.
Now, in the case of 1080p25...it's progressive, but it can be carried on a 1080i50 timeline with no ill effects EXCEPT that transitions, moving titles, and perhaps certain other effects will render with the normal interlacing of the sequence format. The fix is to change the sequence field dom setting to None. Hope that makes sense.

Exporting from After Effects (field dominance issues?)

Hi all,
I created a FCP DV/NTSC sequence with field dominance set to none (I'm working with still images, this improves the quality a lot). I then export that sequence as a quicktime movie file and import that movie file into After Effects.
The problem is after I'm done working in After Effects, I can't export a quicktime file without it looking really poor quality. When exporting, I preserve all the original FCP sequence settings, except the field dominance settings(doesn't seem to be an option in After Effects for this?).
So pretty much I am trying to get a sharp picture when exporting in After Effects, so I can take it back into FCP. Please assist.

Your workflow is quite limited by the DV NTSC sequence. If your sequence is all stills, you are not necessarily tied to that setting at all. Do you need to output to a VTR via FireWire ultimately? What is your final output?
A better sequence choice might be DV50. You would export a QT movie, current settings. You don't actually export from After Effects. You render by adding your comp to the Render Queue. Good render settings would be DV50 (this would not require rendering in FCP), Animation, or perhaps ProRes 422 HQ if you have access to it. You would choose not to render fields.
If it's all stills, it would be better yet to simply start in After Effects.

Best settings for desktop i7?

I installed After Effects CC 2014 on a computer with i74790k, Radeon 6850 and 8 GB of RAM.
The program runs smoothly but it makes Windows 8.1 a bit unresponsive, for example opening and closing folders take longer, also browsing files, opening the start menu, etc.
What are the best settings for decent editing and desktop stability?

Check your memory and multiprocessing settings. The RAM reserved for other applications probably needs to be higher.

Minimun requirements according to Adobe:

According to almost everyone who uses it. The 4GB is the bare minimum for it to run. However, you need more than 8 for it to run well. I'd consider 16 as a minimum for it to run well, but considering how cheap and easy it is to upgrade RAM, I'd put more than that in your system if possible.
