File Duration Question: Any Way to Get Quick Totals?

Another curious-if-there's-a-way-to-do-this question:
I notice that Media Manager (for which I've now added a custom key command) will tell me the combined media file size for any group of clips I select in the FCP7 Browser (whether an entire Bin's worth, or even a non-contigous selection of specific clips therein). For individual clips of course I need only look at the Browser's "Size" column.
Is there an equivalent way to do this vis-a-vis the total duration of a given group of clips -- again, whether an entire Bin's worth, or just a group of individually selected ones? The Browser has its Duration column with running time info for each separate clip, but is there any quick way to get the total, combined running time for a group of multiple clips?
(An example would be wanting to quickly check how many hours/minutes of material was shot in a given setting, or on particular day, etc., without having to manually add up the Duration info for dozens of separate clips.)
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
John B.

While still hoping for a fewer-clicks, Browser-only solution, I have to admit that would indeed provide the desired information.
Thanks for the reply!

  • I lost my Indesign files after deinstalling, any way to get them back?

    I deinstalled Indesign this morning and it removed everything, including the files I had created. What the hell? Did it just move them somewhere else? Are they lost? I put more then 3 weeks of work in there. Thankful for a quick and helpful answer!!!

    Uninstalling the application will not delete your files.
    They should be whereever you saved them.
    That said, for future use, you might want to give this a read:

    I opened a file to print and by accident highlighted and deleted the content. Then in a panic I closed the file and now when I open it is blank. Is there any way to get it back.  I have looked and can not see anyway. I dont have anything in my backup?

    I'm not sure about older versions, but in Pages 3.x (OS X 10.9.x) select File > Revert To > Browse All Versions.  Hopefully there will be an earlier version that you can "revert to".

  • Is there any way to get the files from other computer ?

    Hai all,
    I have 2 computers connected. I know the IP address of other computer. Is there any way to get the files from other computer. (for e.g. I want to get the files from specific folder. In Java netwroking is it possible? (Any programs)
    regards,
    Namanc

    Bro Take it easy.
    Think you need to send a Image file named ("abc.gif")
    now develop a server using ServerSocket and connect it in local IP and any PORT
    For example i think ur server is connected in "localhost" and 9000 port.
    Now make ur server educated using some commands.
    For example:
    FileName: <File Name String>
    [Means new file is sending by connected client]
    FileSize: <File size long or int value>
    [ So that ur server can determind about the total length of sender file]
    DataModeOpen
    [Now your client will send its image data, this command means your client software is sending data]
    fjadlkfjaofaijojfwoeiurfodkjflsajlfksa
    l23j4lj23lkjlasjfoq23j4rokjelfkjasldkf
    2o3j4lk2j3ljslakdjf2l3j4 l23kjlk23k4j
    DataModeClose
    [Means file sending finished]
    Close
    [Means your client connection is closed]
    Now develop a client supporting this command.
    For example(Server):
    String getFileName=null;
    long getFileSize=0;
    public handleCommand(String getCmd) {
        if(getCmd.startsWith("FileName")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileName=   splitData[1];
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("FileSize")) {
                String[] splitData=getCmd.split(":");
                this.getFileSize=Long.parseLong(splitData[1]);
                outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeOpen")) {
               //data mode open so receive data
              receiveData();
              outPutStream.writeBytes("+OK");
        } else if(getCmd.startsWith("DataModeClose")) {
              //close client socket
             getClientSocket.close();
    }For client:
    DataInputStream dataIn=null;
    BufferedOutputStream bout=null;
    public sendFile(bytes[] getBytes) {
            //if ok found then do other or show error message
        if(sendCmd("FileName:"+getFileName)) {
            if(sendCmd("FileSize:"+getFileSize)) {
                if(sendCmd("DataModeOpen")) {
                   bout.write(getBytes);
                } else {
                   showError(3);
            } else {
                   showError(2);
       } else {

  • I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM... I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM? Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?

    I have a Macbook Pro june 2011... I have 8GB ram but I only have 256mb VRAM...
    I've read some other questions about this and I realized... Why do I not have 560mb of VRAM since I have 8GB of RAM?
    Is there any way to get more VRAM to play games on steam?
    I've learned  by reading other topics that I can't upgrade my graphics card on my Macbook Pro because it's soldered into the motherboard or somthing like that, but please tell me if there is any way to get more video ram by chaning some setting or upgrading something else. I'd also like to know why I only have 256MB of VRAM when I have 8GB of RAM, since I have 8GB of RAM I thought I was supposed to have 560mb of VRAM...
    So the two questions are...
    Is there any way to upgrade my VRAM, so that I can play games on steam?
    Why do I only have 256MB VRAM when I have 8GB total RAM?
    Other Info:
    I have a quad core i7 Processor.
    My graphcics card is the AMD Radeon HD 6490M.
    I am also trying to play games on my BOOTCAMPed side of my mac, or my Windows 7 Professional side.
    THANK YOU SO MUCH IF YOU CAN REPLY,
    Dylan

    The only two items that a user can change on a MBP are the RAM and HDD (Retinas not included).  You have what the unit came with and the only way you will be able to change that is to purchase a MBP with superior graphics
    If you are very much into gaming, the I suggest A PC.  They are far superior for that type of application to a MBP.

  • Any way of getting Real Media files to play in Front Row?

    I was just wondering if there is any way to get Real Media files to play in Front Row? I realise this is probably not possible, but I thought I'd ask people who know more about this than me!!
    I do have Real Player installed if that helps......

    Probably not right now. Since Front Row uses iPhoto to play slideshows, the DVD Player to play DVDs, iTunes to play MP3s and the QuickTime Player to play videos, there's no way now to change the default video player application. All of those connections are hard-wired into the software. Apple has not released any kind of SDK (software development kit) for third parties to add on to Front Row, so it would have to be an unauthorized hack to get another video player to run. I might suggest you send Apple some Mac OS X feedback and let them know you'd like to see third party add-ons to Front Row.

  • Is there any way to get .wav files to play on iOS devices?

    Is there any way to get .wav files to play on iOS devices? I know some apps can play .wav however I was looking to have safari load a suitable player as needed, but it shows a audio file with a line across it... and does not play the file. Any workaround? Thanks,
    Fabio

    Hi James,
    That is very helpful, thanks. However, that ends up presenting two other problems...
    Initially, the original .wav file has to be downloaded somewhere, how does one download a file from Safari to the phone and then open the file with the app? Is there any way to configure iOS to always use an app for a particular file type? How does iOS handle file types? Do you know why safari does not allow add-ons? Can I configure another app as the 'default' browser?
    Once again, thanks for pointing this out.
    Best wishes

  • So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as a single swf file from captivate.

    Dear friends,
    I am beginner in Adobe Captivate. We have a E-learning
    project. We are using Dockers as our LMS. Previously we were using
    Flash for all. Now we are trying Captivate for better and faster
    results. I have few swf files and i inserted al files in Captivate
    and i published. So instead of getting single output, am getting
    all the swfs, skin swf and html file. Html file is accessing all
    swfs and works. But it is not working in Dockers. Single swf will
    only work in Dockers. So Wat to do? Is there any way to get out as
    a single swf file from captivate. please Help mee.
    Thanks
    Flashlover

    If 'Dockers' cannot handle a .zip file as the content and
    instead
    requires a single, uncompressed content file, then it is not
    SCORM-compliant. The SCORM specification requires the LMS to
    handle a
    'pif' file (most common is .zip) which contains the lesson
    and the
    required manifest file. If Dockers doesn't support that then
    you can't
    do SCORM-compliant content.

  • Any way to get iPhoto'09 to recognise existing Facebook albums?

    Is there any way to get iPhoto '09 to recognise existing Facebook albums?
    It would be nice to have all the previous albums I've uploaded to be listed in iPhoto and all the 100's of people I've already tagged would serve as a nice basis for the iPhoto face detection to learn who my friends are!

    This is an interesting workaround, but misses the spirit of the original post. I don't know a way to get iPhoto '09 to recognize existing FB albums, but I agree that this is a serious problem with iPhoto '09.
    The iPhoto '09 Facebook and Flickr uploaders have one "cool" feature - they automatically sync iPhotos events with FB "albums" or Flickr "sets", so if you make changes to the photos in iPhoto, then those changes are reflected in the photos on FB and Flickr automagically (this has been working for me in FB but not in Flickr). The more I use this the more I think it's more trouble than it is useful and I wish I could turn it off and just use the old exporters without syncing.
    There are problems with the exporters:
    (1) the constant syncing with FB/Flickr can get annoying if you're making several changes, if you have a slow internet connection or slow computer.
    (2) If you don't actually want the changes to be reflected in the FB/Flickr album (i.e. i delete photos out of iPhoto to make room on my disk for more photos and now the photos are deleted out of facebook) can get not as user friendly as the original Facebook and Flickr exporter was easier and more user-friendly.
    (3) syncing is cool for a computer programmer to do, but what if users don't want it all the time? What if I don't want my Facebook albums to be exactly the same as my iPhoto albums, and I don't want to split out all the photos that I don't want on Facebook into separate events in iPhoto? This lack of support for the truly useful & user friendly (if a bit boring) features is a really unfortunate oversight.
    (3a) in the old version: i can quickly and easily choose exactly which photos from which events I want to upload to FB.
    (3b) as the original questioner mentioned: I can choose whether to upload to into a *new or existing album*. Hands down, this was *the single best feature* of the previous uploaders.
    (in Flickr this is of paramount importance since the free Flickr account only allows 3 "sets" - so, since this fancy iPhoto syncing links your events to sets in Flickr, you'd have to create 3 massive Flickr-only events in iPhoto in order to stay within their restrictions. I like to keep my iPhotos events separate, but I'm perfectly happy uploading photos from different events into one of my three Flickr sets. i'm pretty sure i can still do this with FFXporter or similar.)
    (3b) in the old version: all the photos i upload are put into a "pending" album on FB so that I can tag people, delete some photos (without deleting them off my own iPhoto), etc. before sharing them with all my friends. I'd like to have at least the option to choose whether they go into a pending album first or not.
    (3c) it's further annoying that you cannot browse your iPhoto library directly (from most websites) when searching for photos to upload, you have to export the files first, then browse to where the photos were exported.

  • Any way to get only new updates for disconnected WSUS?

    Greetings,
    I have two servers set up. One is online, getting the new updates correctly. The other one is offline where I successfully was able to transfer the approve updates from the online WSUS.  My work requires me to get new updates and transfer the new updates
    from the online to offline WSUS once in a while. The problem is that  I cannot use any external hard drive for data transfer due to security reasons. I can only use DVD of which we only have duel layer (8.5GB max) as our highest.
    My question is any way to get the newest updates only and be able to plug them in the WSUScontent folder in the offline WSUS? I rather not have to span 7-8 DVDs for a 61GB folder of all the updates each time. I would love any method or advice that can
    be offered. I'm limited on what third-party software I can use as well unfortunately.
    Thanks,
    Drake Gallagher

    You could probably work something out, using ROBOCOPY and it's various comparison operators (such as Archive bit, or date/timestamp).
    You'd need to have the "last file set prepared for the offline server" available, to do the comparison. Then, tinker with the comparison operators to determine the set which works for you. This should give you the "delta", and then you could
    burn the "delta" files/folders to your media.
    Depending on your OS in use, ROBOCOPY might already be built-in for you (so no third-party software needed)
