First Project - Poor resolution when working between FCE and LT

I've put together a 1 minute sequence in FCE 4 (1920X1080) and it looks great when I export to QuickTime movie.
I then use that movie as a background in LiveType, adding a bunch of titles and graphics.
If I then render the movie in LiveType the rendered movie chokes and skips. If I import it back into FCE and export it back to a QT movie, it looks poor - compression artifacts and the text doesn't look crisp.
Is there a better way to:
1) Sequence and edit my clips (1 min movie)
2) Add tiles/graphics throughout
3) Output to HD format
Thanks!

I figured it out.....
Rather than rendering the movie in LT and importing to FCE, I just imported the LT project itself. Working between the two apps simultaneously, I can position the text and graphics from LiveType, save, then instantly see the results in FCE.
Everything is looking crisper....

InDesign CC is performing poorly, slowly when working with text.

InDesign CC is performing poorly, slowly when working with text. I tried updating and it seems like everything installed except for Extension Manager 6.0.7 which failed to instal. Any fix for this?

Thanks, I think the problem is solved. Previously, the CC Extension Manager failed to install when I did an update via the InDesign Help menu. InDesign CC updated successfully, however, InDesign was still acting wonky. Since downloading a new full CC Extension Manager a little while ago, InDesign seems to be working better. Is there a correlation between the two apps for future reference?

How is the XMP workflow supposed to work between CS6 and LR4.1

Can somebody please enlighten me ?
I have a raw file in Lightroom, xmp files turned on.
I open the file as a smart object in Photoshop.
Back in Lightroom I do some edits, and to be sure, I save the edits back to the XMP.
Back in Photoshop, no matter what I try, my edits are not picked up. I tried opening the smart object etc...but ACR does not pick up the edits I just made in Lightroom (even when the XMP file is up to date).
If I resubmit the edited image from Lightroom, my edits are picked up, but this can't be the way it's supposed to work, can it ? What good is a smart object if you need to resubmit it each time...
Isn't the XMP workflow supposed to be seamless between adobe applications, picking up any edit, no matter where the edit is made (from acr to lightroom and vice versa) ?
I'm probably missing something, but would appreciate some help.

Taking a little distance and looking at it from that angle, I can understand why it works the way it does now.
Still, I feel there are some missed opportunities here.
Compared to working between indesign and photoshop, when I have an indesign layout and I later edit the placed photoshop document, Indesign gives me a warning that my version is changed and I can update it to reflect the latest state.
A similar thing could be done here inside photoshop "update to latest Lightroom edits" or something similar which could be totally optional for the end user to use or not.
My confusion was mostly caused by the XMP files, it stuck in my head that these were external files holding all knowledge and no matter which Adobe program you used, it would work with those same xmp files... but I understood wrong apparently.
I still have a lot to learn, thanks for all the answers, it is very helpfull.

Imported quicktime files lose resolution when exported from FCE

I am having trouble with quicktime files losing resolution after I add titles and transitions to them in FCE.
I'm doing some video morphing so I use different software to create the quicktime files, and then I import them into FCE in order to add titles and transitions, and then I want to export again as quicktime files.
The problem is, when I export the completed movies from FCE, the quicktime file section of the movies ends up being a much lower resolution than when I had imported it. I am using all the same compression settings throughout: Sorenson 3, Best, Frame rate 15 fps. The movies are 1001x751 in size.
Any ideas on how to get the movies to come out as crisp and hi res as the original clips?
Thanks.
FCE 2.0.3 Mac OS X (10.4.5)
FCE 2.0.3 Mac OS X (10.4.5) Quicktime 7.0.4

Sorenson 3 is a web compression codec. You need to create your videos in DV NTSC at 720x480 at the 29.97fps. That the format that's specified in FCE.
All the best,
Tom

Keymapping problem when working with emacs and openbox

I have an apple keyboard and I had to do some remapping of the keys to make the mod-4 key the first key to the left of the space bar for when working with Emacs. The below script worked fine when I was using the dwm window manager, but after switching to openbox I have found that instead of swapping keycodes between the option and command keys, only the command key seems to be working since the initial openbox command-space doesn't work when pressing option-space.
One odd thing I noticed, was on the new setup when I click run `showkey` and press the option and command keys I get 56 and 125 respectively, but these keys don't work at all when inserting them into the below script instead of the 64 and 133.
I must admit I created the script below by continually tweaking it until it worked so there could be a much better way of doing it.
//.xmodmap
### capslock => ctrl
xmodmap -e "clear Lock"
xmodmap -e "add Control = Caps_Lock"
### switch alt and command
xmodmap -e "keycode 64 = Alt_L"
xmodmap -e "keycode 133 = Meta_L"
### remap of mod 4
xmodmap -e "clear Mod4"
xmodmap -e "add Mod4 = Super_L"
** Update: The Alt key is not being swapped with the command key, but is not just a duplicate. So no M-x can be done by both Alt-x and Command-x

Does the "Anamorphicizer" work for FCE and FCP?

I have:
Final Cut Express HD 3.0
iDVD 6.0.2
Just downloaded the anamorphicizer from this link
http://homepage.mac.com/sith33/FileSharing34.html
to help my project maintain it's 16:9 aspect ratio in iDVD.
Before I spend $30.00 for quicktime pro (so that I can start using the anamorphicizer with it) can someone tell me if the anamorphicizer works for Final Cut Express?
If you go to the page above it says, "Export your video from FCP like you normally would for going to iDVD," and does not mention FCE.
Or, is there another website to download a "anamorphicizer" version that works for FCE?
Thanks!
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4) Final Cut Express

I've had kind of iffy results with Anamorphicizer, but I suspect that's because I don't know what I'm doing (or am trying to convert funky file formats). But when I drop a file on top of Anamorphicizer, it automatically opens up QT Pro and instructs me to save the converted file. I think you might have to get QT Pro in order to use it—I'm not sure, but don't think that the regular (free) version of QT has the "save as" capabilities of QT Pro. (Could be wrong, though. . . )
Anyway, sure, if you save a file after it's been converted by Anamorphicizer, it should be able to be opened in FCE. (I save my files as a "Hinted" Quicktime movie.

Home Sharing no longer works between iTunes and Apple TV.

I've been through all the forums, tried all the solutions provided and I have come to the conclusion that Home Sharing just no longer works between iTunes on a PC and my Apple TV. Does anyone know if this issue will be addressed or should I list my Apple TV up on eBay? (along with my iPad, iPod, and iPhone, since all system no longer sync together as before.)
My issue:
My iTunes library is no longer listed under "Computers" on the Apple TV.
The airplay icon no longer shows up in iTunes. (Version 11)
I cannot play music/content from my iPhone or iPad via remote that is stored in my iTunes library through my Apple TV.
I can however play music/content that is stored locally on my iPhone and iPad through my Apple TV.
My firewall settings are allowing access to Apple TV.
After logging into my router, I see no issues there.
I've logged in/out, turned home sharing on/off, de-authorized/authorized, and restarted my PC, Apple TV, and Router.
All devices are logged into the same iTunes account, and are on the same wireless network.
Time for a solution Apple.

If you turn off wifi on your Computer and connect it to the apple tv using an ethernet cable can you see your library under computers in Apple TV.
If yes the issue is with your wifi not the Apple TV

iTunes Home Sharing Not Working
Not working and sometimes when it is working, it cuts out in the middle, or when you click on the computer name, the focus goes away from the library. In other words, really weird.
What it is
iTunes has a feature called "Home Sharing" - it basically allows you to share your entire or part of your library with other instances of iTunes in your home network. It requires you to login to your iTunes account on both computers. A typical scenario is to enable Home Sharing on your desktop machine and then access the library from your iPad, Apple TV, iPhone, Mac, etc.
In my case, I have iTunes on my desktop machine running Windows XP in the attic with Home Sharing enabled and then I access the library from my Macbook and Apple TV, depending on what I want. How to use Home Sharing can be found here.
Symptoms
Home Sharing machine not showing up in Apple TV or the Macbook
The Macbook home sharing not showing up on my desktop
Home Sharing working intermittently
Connections getting cut of intermittently
Usually, restarting iTunes or the desktop computer will make things work.
Sometimes, restarting the Macbook or the Apple TV will make things work.
The "working" doesn't last long
The FixOn the desktop computer where the Home Sharing is enabled, I disabled the "QoS Packet Scheduler" from the network connection:
Open Control Panel
Open Network Connections
Right-Click on your connection (in my case, it was "Wireless Network Connection 4"
Select Properties
Uncheck "QoS Packet Scheduler"
Click OK
Restart iTunes if necessary
After doing the above, Home Sharing worked like a charm.

Graphic distortion when switching between external and built-in display (rMBP)

Recently (within the past two weeks or so) I've noticed a strange issue when switching between my external display (Thunderbolt) and my built-in display on my 15" rMBP. The following issue seems to be specific to Photoshop CS6.
Typically, I'll have a PS document open on my external display and I'll wind up taking my to another location. If I close the PS document while on my built-in and then re-open it, I get all kinds of distortion and pixellation. Closing out PS and reopining, restarting, logging on/off; none of it seems to work. It seems like the issue is with the PSD itself, but it doesn't make any sense to me. Any ideas? Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/iCipSc7.jpg

Do you have intel gpy as well as other graphic card? You may be viewing document on different gpu's. PS does not like multiple gpu's.

Do I need to reset the router when switching between Win and Mac?

I just set up my new Mac Pro with OSX 1.5.2 and Win XP using Bootcamp and it all works fine, but I have one question about connecting to the internet.
I have a Belkin pre-N wireless router. I am connected using an ethernet cable.
When I switch between OSX and Windows by restarting the computer, is it necessary to restart the router while the computer is off so that when it comes back on it can locate its proper connection?
When I was working on my old PC and my new Mac Pro, I noticed that if I just took the ethernet cable from the Mac or PC and connected it to the other machine, it couldn't find the internet unless I turned off the router, waited a moment and turned it back on again, connected to the other machine and then started the machine.
As the two OSs are now in the same machine, will this continue to happen or can I simply switch between operating systems without having to re-initialize the router and connect it before turning on the computer again?
I haven't tried it yet because I am afraid to screw things up, so I am continuing to turn off, restart the router, re-connect and turn the computer on again. That work perfectly but it is tedious.
Can anyone please advise on whether this is necessary or not?
Thanks a lot for any advice.

Luis:
You should be able to leave the router on and switch between the two OSes. Try it. Worst thing that can happen is that you would need to restart the router.

UI not getting change update when working with LIST and INotifyPropertyChanged

i was trying to know two way data binding. i have simple car class which extend INotifyPropertyChanged for notify the change to update UI. bind List object to few textboxes and notice when one textbox value change then other textbox value not updated. all
textboxes bind to same property. so one's value change should propagate to other textboxes.
this is my code
public class Car : INotifyPropertyChanged
private string _make;
private string _model;
private int _year;
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public Car(string make, string model, int year)
_make = make;
_model = model;
_year = year;
public string Make
get { return _make; }
set
_make = value;
this.NotifyPropertyChanged("Make");
public string Model
get { return _model; }
set
_model = value;
this.NotifyPropertyChanged("Model");
public int Year
get { return _year; }
set
_year = value;
this.NotifyPropertyChanged("Year");
private void NotifyPropertyChanged(string name)
if (PropertyChanged != null)
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(name));
This way i bind
Car carTest;
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
carTest = new Car("Ford", "Mustang", 1967);
List<Car> ol = new List<Car>();
ol.Add(carTest);
this.textBox1.DataBindings.Add("Text", ol, "Make", true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
this.textBox2.DataBindings.Add("Text", ol, "Make", true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
this.textBox3.DataBindings.Add("Text", ol, "Make");
when run the code then Ford was showing as make name but when change value in any textbox then that change is not shown in other textboxes.
the moment i change this line List<Car> ol = new List<Car>(); to
BindingList<Car> ol = new BindingList<Car>(); then code started to work fine.
My Question
1) what is the difference between List and BindingList class ?
2) can't we use List<> for my situation instead of BindingList
3)
this.textBox2.DataBindings.Add("Text", ol, "Make", true, DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged);
this.textBox3.DataBindings.Add("Text", ol, "Make");
see the above code and tell me what is the advantage of using DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged because i have seen if we do not use this code
DataSourceUpdateMode.OnPropertyChanged then also data change is propagated to other textbox when cursor focus change.

I would have thought that'd work with List<t>, in fact I think there must be something wrong in your code there. I can't spot it though.
I recommend use of ObservableCollection rather than BindingList.
The default on bindings is that changes are propagated from the target ( view ) to source ( vm ) when the control loses focus.
If you want to do the equivalent to a keydown event handler in a viewmodel then onpropertychanged is the way to go.
You want to avoid creating bindings in code unless you really really have to, it's way easier to put them in xaml.
Even if your ui is dynamic, you can build xaml and use that to create the ui objects:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/28797.aspx
The difference between BindingList and List is, literally, iBindingList.
See
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.componentmodel.ibindinglist%28v=vs.110%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
What probably isn't very obvious is that BindingList fires an event - iirc itemchanged when properties on objects in it change.
Maybe you did something wrong in your implementation of inotifypropertychanged. I must admit, I can't see anything there though.
You don't really need those magic strings since .net4.5 and you also don't need to explicitly implement inotifypropertychanged you could use:
public event PropertyChangedEventHandler PropertyChanged;
public void RaisePropertyChanged([CallerMemberName] String propertyName = "")
if (PropertyChanged != null)
PropertyChanged(this, new PropertyChangedEventArgs(propertyName));
As used in this:
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/WPF-Dynamic-Fonts-ad3741ca
If you try that sample you can have:
public class FontDetails : INotifyPropertyChanged
or
public class FontDetails
And you can see it still notifies change successfully to both windows.
Most wpf devs will use observablecollection rather than List or bindinglist.
Observablecollection notifies addition or removal of entries. It can be used to notify an entry has changed, but does not detect change of property. You would have to raise the event in code if you want to tell it an item changed.
Hope that helps.

Workflow in process status when work is completed and returned to inbox

Issue...
Once upgraded to ECC 5.0, our Workflows are still in process status after completing the work item and returning to inbox. Takes several seconds to go to completed status.
More detail...
In a number of our work items in custom workflows we utilize methods that display a custom transaction for review & approval in the workflow process. From within the custom transaction we issue the terminating event for the work item by means of Function Module "SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT" once the user approves or disapproves the work item.
This worked all very well in Rel. 4.6c. By the time the users were routed back to their inbox the work item had disappeared.
We recently upgraded to ECC 5.0 and experience the following problem. Once the user has left the work item and are back in their inbox, the work item is still on display. It eventually goes away once the users refresh their screen after a few seconds. This is very confusing to the users and some of them even wanting to start executing the same item again....
I was wondering if anybody has any ideas on how the completion/termination of the work item could be changed so that it completes faster and is gone from the inbox immediately.
In our research we did come across OSS note 831443, which explains as of release 6.20 that work items will be locked while executing a method and that the terminating event can only be delivered once it is unlocked. Taking this into consideration, we tried moving the terminating event to the end of the method within the business object program, but the work item never completed, even after refreshing the inbox.
Thank you for any feedback.

Hello Tom,
I've had quite a similar problem with the terminating event in a dialog while the workitem is locked.
I came across the same SAPNote 831443, but it doesn't seem to tell the whole story there. As I found out, the status change (from "in work" to "complete") is just skipped over, while the workflow continues with processing, leaving a last workitem "in work" hanging out to dry when the whole process has already finished.
Basically the problem is, or was, that a popup dialog was shown to the user after the processed the transaction, which held the lock open. I have found no logs, saying that there was a problem with a locked workitem, anyhow.
At last I have found out, that basically there shouldn't be much coding between the <b>COMMIT WORK</b> statement and the coding that just ends the method with <b>END METHOD</b>. This kind of procedure does definitly apply to the newer Versions, as I didn't have any problems like this before. Mayhaps and only a guess is, that the unlock-operation was previously registered with a perform like PERFORM unlock_workitem ON COMMIT. or something similar. This defenitly has changed under the new releases.
In your specific case I would recommend to register the event processing in the update task and end the workitem's method as soon, as possible. For example:
CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE' IN UPDATE TASK ...
If this still does not help, you could further disjoin the transaction processing from the event creation by adding
STARTING NEW TASK
IN BACKGROUND MODE
or whatever the correct syntax was here. This will schedule another tRFC on the database commit, which then is defenitly be picked up by another work process of the application server, just right -- hopefully -- after the object's method has completed.
If you're feeling good with this answers, or it least it gave you new ideas to look upon, please assign points as appropriate.
Best wishes,
Florin
