Field order issues after export to DV Pal from uncompressed

We are experiencing some difficulty exporting clips from FCP to our Omneon Server for TX.
We are capturing 8 bit uncompressed (AJA and Blackmagic) from digibeta for our edit and all editing stays in uncompressed until final output. Our transmission system demands DV PAL files so we export finished items as DV PAL in FCP and drop onto the server
Our problem is that on playback from the server, the field order is incorrect. Although the exported DV clips properties show lower field order, the clip is obviously playing upper field first. If we capture and edit in DV and export the DV file to the server, then we have no problems. I have tried
exporting uncompressed clips to DV via Compressor and changing the field order in frame controls but no success. It seems that when a clip is captured and edited in upper field it hangs onto that status even after conversion to DV!! Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

when you drop one of your 8 bit uncompressed source clips into your DV PAL timeline, is FCP correctly adding the Shift Fields filer to those timeline instances?
do you edit in 8-bit uncompressed and then export direct to DV PAL or do you nest your 8 bit uncompressed sequence into a DV PAL sequence first and then export as Quicktime Movie w/ current settings? if not the latter, try it (and make sure your nest has the Shift Fields filter applied)

I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

I am facing wifi and mobile 2G signal issue after upgrading to IOS 6 from IOS 5 in IPhone 3GS. The mobile carrier signal as well as WIFI suddenly drops zero and are then restored automatically. Sometimes i cannot conenct to WIFI even standing infront of WIFI router. Please help, restoring setting even didn't helped.

Update: my phone's connecting to the WiFi again. I don't know what did the trick. I did nothing since reinstalling the software. It hadn't worked then, it is now. I tried connecting to my dad's phone's hotspot( he uses a Moto G), and it worked. I then tried connecting to the WiFi at a friend's house, and when I came back home, my phone was able to connect to my WiFi! Is it of any significance that my friend's router doesn't require a password? My issue has been resolved( for now; I hope I'm not counting my chickens before they've hatched). For anyone facing a similar issue, I suggest you try everything I did:
1. Turn your router off for a minimum of 30 seconds, turn it back on and try connecting.
2. Click on the WiFi network you are connected to, scroll to the bottom, tap "Renew Lease".
3. Do a soft and hard reset.
4. Reset network settings.
5. Back your data up, erase all content from settings menu, restore from backup.
6. Reinstall your software( put it in recovery mode).
I am not sure which of the above worked for me. Make sure you try everything. If none of the above works, take it to a genius bar or an authorised service provider. Good luck! :)

Field order issue with Avid codec

Is there some way of setting the field order of the source for Encore DVD 2. Given the problems I experienced with ProCoder I decided to encode a project using the inbuilt Main Concept encoder.
On the interpret footage menu I can correctly set the aspect ratio but not the field order.
Unfortunately Quicktime does not seem to be passing on the correct field order to the Main Concept encoder everytime.
I have had one encode using a preset I created that worked perfectly - I then copied that preset and added a crop and scale to get rid of some VIT (out of essential but viewable on the customers replay system) and everything was field muddled.
I can see how you can set the output field order but no way of setting the source field order. Transcoding on automatic had the same jumbled field effect.
BTW these were full Quicktimes not refs

Probably - although it is such a small re-scale, that if the scaling algorithm is even half-way decent the result should be fine. This is Digibeta originated footage.. in fact the result when I re-worked this in ProCoder was excellent.
I just wanted to avoid having to place a mask over 8 different sequences amounting to 50 minutes in length, as anything you then export would result in a full render (even though the Avid would play it in real time).
I guess I'll have to seriously look at my workflow - everything used to just work beautifully - Avid PAL codecs all UFF except for AvidDV LFF; now I keep getting a weird progressive looking result with the new Avid 1:1 10bit codec even though the source is interlaced UFF and recently I rendered an Avid DV export with all settings correct (Source LFF Target UFF) and it ended up jumbled. I had to deliberately set the source to UFF. I do think the culprit is QT 7 as all these problems seem to have started from the switchover from QT6+, but I'm not certain.

HDV to DVD interlace field order - depends on export path!

Summary: Export... -> Using Compressor versus compressing an Export... -> QuickTime Movie file, produces different field orders in the resulting MPEG.
In Detail: Here is my HDV to DVD (MPEG2) process;
Create a DV sequence, and drop the HDV into it, it gets resized, and has a filter to shift the fields by +1 added to it, and is scaled to the correct size for 4:3 (letterboxed) or 16:9 (fills 720x480) - which is fine.
Set the Quicktime Video Compressor for the sequence to 'None', and set the Video Processing -> Motion Filtering Quality to 'Fastest (linear)' as I don't like what Normal or Best does to the image (makes it pixally, check in the canvas).
Now, if you Export -> Using Compressor, and setup a 2-pass mpeg 2 encode, you get a very good image, no via - DV artifacts. I also add the channel blur, set to 1 on all channels, if its too sharp - channel blur does not blur between fields, like flicker filter does, so the motion is not compromised, and looks excellent, but it stops sharp still images from flickering.
However, this is really slow, FCP is tied up, and for a 2 pass encode, any blur or colour filters get applied twice, its also harder to hand this off to a second machine to get on with.
So, logically, you would instead, Export... -> QuickTime Movie... -> Current Setting, Make Self Contained and then load that into Compressor, apply the SAME settings you did Using Compressor... At which point, the FUN begins.
I have finally narrowed down, that this changes the field order, although I nearly went mad discovering it - every time I thought my little 10 second test worked, (exported from the timeline) I would save the whole thing out and compress it, only to find, the interlace order changed, and now needed the field shift removed! And, because my little test worked, I would then do the whole thing, some 20+ hours later, only to find it was wrong!
Export... -> Using QuickTime Conversion... is the same as QuickTime Movie...
Anyone else with experience of this ? It was maddening! But I think I am over the worst of it now! Is there any solution for unifying this for all export methods ?
When it works DVD's encoded from HDV look amazing.
When it works.....
FCP 5.0.4
Compressor 2.0.1

Hi Ben,
Ignore the Apple-0 (zero) part - that's just the key shortcut for the sequence settings. (press the Apple Key, and a Zero key with a sequence selected)
So, from the top: (although I'm not in front of my machine right now, so this is from memory)
Create a new DV sequence, 4:3 or 16:9.
Drop the edited HDV sequence into the DV sequence.
De-select the HDV sequence in the DV time line, bring up the Sequence Settings Dialogue for the DV sequence. (make SURE it isn't the sequence setting dialogue for the HDV sequence)
In the sequence setting dialogue, change the codec from DV to None (note - not the same as Uncompressed). If it's currently HDV, you have the wrong sequence, leave it as HDV, close the dialogue, and bring up the setting for the DV sequence.
On the 'Video Processing' tab, for the DV sequence, set the 'Motion Filtering Quality' to 'Fastest (linear)'
Choose OK to close the settings dialogue.
If you want to, and it depends on your footage, add the following blur filter to the HDV sequence in the DV timeline:
Select the HDV sequence in the DV timeline, right click (or hold ctrl key, and click) on the HDV sequence in the DV timeline, and choose the top item in the pop-up menu, 'Open' (in viewer). Click the filters tab of the viewer, you will see the Shift Fields filter, set to +1, added by FCP, add the channel blur, above the shift fields filter. Set the blur to 1 on each channel. I prefer this to the Video -> Flicker Filter, as channel blur does not blur between fields, so it does not blur motion.
I discovered this by accident
Now Save, the following sometimes crashes FCP. Check it in the Canvas viewer, set to 100%, with the channel blur, around text and sharp contrast areas, you get a nice soft blur, turn off that filter if you think its too much.
On to the encoding:
The simplest step, is to choose the DV timeline, and export via compressor. Pick a 2 pass MPEG preset, that matches the 4:3 or 16:9 of the sequence, and submit. This takes a while, on slower machines.
The alternative, which can reduce the time, is to export the DV sequence as an uncompressed QuickTime file - this does not change the quality at all - but can speed things up, because FCP is quite slow at delivering frames to Compressor, compared to Compresser just reading the frame from an uncompressed file, Compresser has to read them twice for 2 pass MPEG encoding. However, you need a lot of fast disk space to store the uncompressed footage.
Hope this helps.

Audio issues after exporting

I've made a 40 minute video of my friends' wedding, which plays beautifully in iMovie, but when I export it, there are some audio issues. I've read other forums and detached all audio before exporting and still the same result.
1) Part of the opening sequence has a piece of audio (from another part of the video) that runs with some slow motion clips of bride and groom. When I export, the warped, slowed down original audio can be heard in the background. I've tried everything - detach audio and delete the offending piece of original audio to reducing the volume level of the original audio to 0. It's still there after exporting!!!
2) Maybe as a result of the above, not sure, but once exported, the whole video audio is out of sync by a few seconds. Went back and checked the project and it's all good with all the audio lining up with the clips, but export and it's out of whack
My friends are hounding me to see the video and I keep stalling, quoting some 'technical issues'.
Please help!

Just wanted to let you all know you've saved my sanity by posting on this board. Your solution - while not what I would have guessed in a million years was the problem source - fixed my video. I can't believe it was so simple! Now, if I could only get the hour(s) back where I tried to find the audio track I 'hadn't muted'...

Audio issues after export to QT (Christmas present - please help!)

I've made a nice presentation in Keynote 4.0.1. My plan was to export it to QT, then
make a DVD of the result. It's supposed to be a chrismas gift to my parents (a presentation
about their newborn grandchild) but now I'm stuck with no working audio.
The presentation includes a few video clips and mp3-audio. They work perfectly when I
preview the presentation in Keynote, but when I try to export them the sound from the
videoclips is gone, and the audio from all the mp3:s stops after about a second.
I have tried to work around this by converting the presentation to Flash, it helps the audio,
but then all the transitions, slides and pictures are messed up.
I've been working with this all night, looked on all forums, without success.
Please, pretty please, all you Santas out there - HELP ME BEFORE CHRISTMAS!!!
Thanks,
Henrik

Ok. Now I've tried a lot more ways to make this work. I'm getting more and more desperate!
One way was to plug in a headphone cable in the line-in and plug-it in "headphones", and record the audio from the slide as "recorded narrations" in Keynote. This worked on one slide - with lots of audio latency, but when I tried it on the whole slideshow Keynote freaked out and crashed.
I hate this excellent program. I wonder - how can Apple release, and expect people to pay for something so buggy and obviously unfinished as iWork '08.
I've worked with MS Office and Open Office, but never, ever had so much trouble with sudden crashes, missing audio, latency and non-working videoclips! If I had a company I would never risk
to use this software for important speaches and annual reports.

Interlacing Issues after Exporting - Help!

Hello -
So I'm having some very frustrating issues exporting a project from Premiere CS3. I'm trying to output to a lightweight quicktime format - either mp4 or an h264 .mov file. I've shot footage using a canon legria hf s10 camcorder, importing at 1920 x 1080 at 25 fps. I used apple's new iMovie to import the clips to my computer (because premiere doesn't seem to natively support AVCHD, which I think the camera shoots in). So I capture the footage with iMovie, then import those .mov files using premiere.
All this is fine, until there's a lot of horizontal motion in shots, where I get these ugly interlaced lines that really mar the quality of my footage. I'm trying to produce some videos in a professional setting, and these lines really hurt the overall perceived quality of my work. However, I thought I had found a fix when I selected the problematic clips and right-clicked, selected "field options," and clicked "always deinterlace." After doing so, the ugly lines disappeared, and when I play the clips back in premiere, I have no issues whatsoever. However, when I EXPORT the clips, the ugly interlacing somehow RETURNS... which is exceedingly frustrating, because I can't figure out how to get rid of them.
When I export, as said before, I am trying to create a relatively low-quality, 854 x 480, square pixel quicktime file of some sort. I've tried any number of exporting options to no avail.
Therefore, I am at your mercy. Endless gratitude to anyone who can help solve this plight. Here's a still example of the problem for your consideration:

Excel output display issue after exporting the report

Hi All.
We are using BI Publisher with Oracle retail for report generation.While exporting report in excel format , after saving the file we are not able to see the data.
When we do a Format-->Autoformat and select one of the options, we can see the data .
What could be the possible reason for this?Can i do anything to avoid this.
Is there a possibility of checking excel log to see how the Excel treating the incoming data.If yes, how can we check the excel log(failed to find anything on this).
Thanks!!

Hmm.. Not really sure. Have you checked your Financial Reporting preferences on Workspace? Couple of things to look for:
- Export to Office Application options
- User Point of View options
I would just check the preferences and test various options.
Cheers,

Sort Order issue when exporting from DRM

The sort order hierarchy (Parent/Child) in DRM is correct, and appears in the right order. When the hierarchy gets exported, some of the nodes are out of order in HFM.
There are shared nodes in the hierarchy. There is a Custom Sort order that is set correctly for the hierarchy in DRM.There is also a Query that was created to export nodes that does not contain the word Shared.
Ex
DRM
Parent 1
Child 2700
Child 2701
Appears in HFM
Parent 1
Child 2701
Child 2700
The sort order is not correct in Smartview. Why would the nodes show correctly in DRM, but export out of order, and not show correctly in HFM?
Any suggestions or comments would be greatly appreciated.

Can you evaluate the DRM export results with the Hiearchy structure, also make sure the Default Hierarchy Sort on the Hierarchy has a value assigned to it, whether it is core or custom based on node ID, DRM should export nodes as they appear in DRM.

Audio/Video sync issues after exporting

Two quick issues:
1. I've recently exported a project from FCE4 to quicktime and am finding that the audio is slightly out of sync with the video everytime.
Is there an ideal format or setting I need to export at to avoid this?
2. Also, I've edited two projects using the same clips and keep finding that the second one I make seems to make the video very narrow when I export it. Is there a setting I need to use to avoid this, or does the problem lay in the setup?
Cheers!
John

From what I see in your info, the clips don't match the Sequeunce.
Furthermore, the clips are not FCE freindly. Probably required rendering?
I'd suggest using Streamclip to convert the H.264 clips to the exact specs of one of the FCE>Easy Setups, audio and video properties, then start over.
http://www.squared5.com/
BTW: Whatever you convert the clips to must match the Easy Setup, so that you work with Clips and Sequence being the same. The best way to acheive this is to start a NEW Project, set the Easy Setup first, then bring in the the matching clips.
Using Item Properties in Browser>Seqeunce/Clip is one way to confirm matching specs for both.

Printing issues after export

The newsletter we publish, would not print the third page in the PDF version we published. I exported as an interactive PDF, and once I exported as a PDF for print it resolved the issue. My problem is that I'm not sure why it would print the first two pages and not the last (if it was an export problem), and also since we do utilize many interactive features these get lost if exported for print. The users mostly access our newsletter via email and web, however many print to use as references. So I need to find a happy medium to satisfy both uses. Any advice?

Layout Issue after exporting crystal report XI in pdf format

Hi All,
I have developed a crystal report in XI version. I have set my page layout properties in the report to be in landscape orientation and A2 size sheet with No Printer(optimize for screen display) option unchecked. The problem is when I export the report in pdf and open the report in pdf for printing, it takes the printer preference settings that are set to portrait and letter format. If I change my printer prefence settings to landscape, it works fine. But, I do not want to change my printer preference settings and want that the settings that I am giving in crystal report designer must be taken for printing purposes in pdf.
I hope, I was able to put forward the question correctly without any confusion.
Can someone please help me out to find a solution ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Akshay
Always quote the actual version of Crystal Reports you are working with. E.g.; CR IX is not quite enough and the best place to find the actual version is in the Help | About screen of the CR designer.
By CR XI, you could mean CR 11.0.x, or CR 11.5.x. If you are using CR 11.0.x, update to CR 11.5 (also referred to as CR XI R2). See this blog on how to.

Formating issue after export crystal report to excel format

Hi Everyone,
I have a crystal report devloped in crystal 8.5 and i am calling this report from my .net windows application. I have a problem when i export the report in excel format. One of the column size(which is report footer) gets increased because of which my report is not properly formated. I have reoved all the blank lines and extra space but still i am not able to reduce the column size. Any help will be appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please let us know the Visual Studio Version that you are using, just to inform you, VS2005 is compatible with CRXIR2 and above and VS2008 is compatible with CR2008 + SP0.
Do the report display properly from the designer? Does the Export from the designer in xls works fine?
Thanks,

Date issue when exporting data to Excel from SSRS report, where date is less than 1/1/1900

Hi,
I am using SSRS report to display the data from database. In that data, One of the column is DATE. when I am exporting to Excel all that dates are displaying fine except 1/1/1800 12:00 AM. Instead of 1/1/1800 12:00 AM it is displaying XXXXXXXXXXXXXX values.
Please help me to fix the issue.
Please let me know if more clarification required.
Thanks In advance.

Hello,
We can use Cstr() function to convert the Date type data to String data. Suppose we have a field named DateTime, please refer to the expression below:
=Cstr(Fields!DateTime.Value)
Then we can get a string type data. There is an article about SSRS expression, you can refer to it.

Issues after trying to transfer content from another Apple ID

Hi....
I recently purchased a new computer and set up a new iTunes account on it. In an attempt to retrieve the music from my old iTunes library, I logged into with my sister's Apple ID to the iTunes store on my iPhone and transfered all purchases to my device. In doing this, the music from my new Apple ID was unable to play and I got a message stating, "This Device Is Already Associated With an Apple ID" along with some information on how you can only download past purchases on a device with one Apple ID every 90 days. So I plugged my phone into my computer and synced it to my new iTunes library and now it seems that all of my music is unable to play. Is there any way I can fix this? Or will I have to wait another 90 days before I can listen to music on my phone again.
