FLVPlaybackCaptioning - Multiple Caption Sources? (i.e multiple languages)

Hi folks,
Please forgive me if this is a simple (read easy to answer) question..... I really only build for flash in the Flex language where we don't have such a nice video playback component ;-)
I have a client that is wanting to put subtitles into their video, initially they were going to go with Quicktime - but I mentioned building an Air app - and they liked that idea.
But after looking at how to get captions into and Air app (using cue points..... long long long process) I started looking at that Flash FLVPlayback component, and how it can work with the FLVPlaybackCaptioning component.
Creating a Time Text format file for the captions should be easy (we use subtitle editors that can load/save in a variety of formats).... but what I am wondering... is it possible to have the FLVPlaybackCaptioning work with multiple files.... i.e one for English, one for Japanese etc etc.?
If so - I might have to considering getting Flash Professional for this one project (Catalyst, and Flash Builder are more than what we typically need already though).
Cheers,
Chris

Your video clips are from such widely differing sources that you may be able to color correct them closer to each other, but it will not be possible to do exact matching. You have sources that vary to the extreme in their source resolution and color content (sampling).
Choose one source as your 'standard' (I'd suggest it be the source you use the most, probably your DV or HD camcorder) and then see how well you can match the other sources to it. You will need to use the Color Corrector filter and should start out by setting the black & white points for each clip. The cellphone & webcam clips are going to be a nightmare to correct against HD and even DV.
Here are some articles on Ken Stone's website that may help:
Film Look for Video (read the section on Getting the Color Right for setting black & white points)
Color Correction/Finishing in FCP4 - good introduction to the subject; just remember that FCE only has a 2-way color corrector tool; the principles still apply, it's just harder to do it in FCE than in FCP.
Cheating in Final Cut Express: Better Color Correction
Tom Wolsky also addresses color correction in his excellent book Final Cut Express 4 Editing Workshop.

  • Multiple Database Sources

    Hello everyone,
    I am currently on vacation and do not have access to a computer with sdk/re installed and had a question to ask from a friend.
    Can I connect to multiple db sources by registering multiple drivers, for instance:
    try{
        Class.forName("net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver");
        conn1 = DriverManager.getConnection(
            "jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://hostname1");
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        conn2 = DriverManager.getConnection(
            "jdbc:mysql://hostname2");
    catch ...... or something of the like.
    Thanks

    Theoretically yes, you can use the same concept to connect to all databases.
    Athough I dont'n know what you ment when you said with "transfer some table information". You mean data from tables or data about tables (column types, column default values etc.)
    But generally, you have to be aware of differences among databases, e.g. Oracle uses SEQUENCE for autoicrementing the ID columns, MYSQL or MS Access does not work this way, Access have "Yes|No" column type, Oracle does not have something like this etc. Also, there's a lot of differences among JDBC drivers for databases in their capabilities even differences among JDBC drivers for the same database but from different vendors.
    Portability in theory is nice thing, but when you deal with databases you'll see that praxys is something else.
    Finally, if you're sutisfied with answers, reward us with some dukes!

  • Increase performance in a multiple data source report

    CA Forum: General
    Hi everybody.
    I have a big problem, when i make a report that have multiple data sources the performance decrease considerably, i still don't know the reason. Is it true that using multiple data sources is too slow?.
    I tell you a fact: I made the report connecting via "Field Definition File", and it take at least 2 minutes to show itself but it only have 170 records, and i'm very sure that the sql statements to each data source were executed very faster.
    I even heard about index, but i think they only are useful when i connect directly to the database.
    All my partner told me, that Cristal Report
    Thanks you in advance

    Thanks you, but I explain better what i was doing.
    I've made a report called "Kardex de Producto" which show the behavior of the products according to its sales, purchases.
    The end result which is showed by the report is correct. I used three data source in the report, so links between each table is correct. The only problem i have is the performance because i still don't know why is too slow. In fact the sql statement is very heavy, but i think it doesn't matter to the report because when it takes the data from the database (connecting via Field Definition File) even if the very heavy sql statement returns twenty record Cristal Report must show itself very quickly. I don't want to believe that Cristal Report is very slow when it works with multiple data sources.
    Do you mind if i give you my report? if not please leave me your email address.

  • Report Viewer and Multiple Data Sources

    I know that it is possible to create a report in Crystal Reports using multiple data sources.  But is it possible to use just the Free  Report Viewer to view a report with Multiple Data Sources?
    Our company uses Crystal Reports XI.  I do not use the program myself, I am in the IT Department.  I have limited knowledge of Crystal and do not do any of the report writing.
    If this is possible, and if someone could help me out with what would need to be done, or point me in the right direction of a Knowledge Base or Help Topic that explains this, that would be great.
    Thanks.

    I believe it can but both data sources need to be set up. Ask a report designer to help you use the Designer to test this and see what is required.

  • Any examples of a data template using multiple data sources?

    I'm looking for an example report using multiple data sources. I've seen one where they do a master/detail but I'm just looking to combine results in sorted order (sorted across all data sources). The master/detail used a bind variable to link the two defined queries, I'm thinking what I want won't have that, so I'm lost on how to make that happen. I have reports using multiple sql queries and there is a way in the data source pulldown to tell it to combine the data sources. It appears to be a more manual process with data templates, if it's even possible.
    Any pointers/links would be appreciated.
    Gaff

    Hi Vetsrini :
    That's just it. Mine is simpler than that. There is no master/detail relationship between the two queries. I have the same exact query that I run in two databases and I want to merge the results (ordered, by, say eventTime) in one report. So I think my results are going to be two separate groups (one for each data source) which I'll have to let BI merge vis XSLT or whatever it uses. That's fine for small result sets but for larger ones, it would be nice if the database did the sorting/merging.

  • How can I share a *.java source file across multiple projects in NetBeans?

    I'm sure this simple and a pretty common operation but how can I share a *.java source file across multiple projects in NetBeans? Right now I keep cut, coping and pasting the same source file between multiple projects to re-use the same code. But I could I make this source file a library file or something like that so that I could access it from any project. I assume this would be a generic operation but I mentioned NetBeans for clarity. Thanks.

    Create a class library.
    Write your code, compile it to .class files, put those class files in a .jar file and include the jar file in the classpath whenever you want to compile a project against it.

  • Multiple Data Sources In One Logical Table

    I am new to OBIEE and I have came accross an issue. I appologize if this information is in the forum somewhere but I have searched and cannot find it.
    My situation is that I would like to have one logical table that contains multiple data sources which have all the same columns. I already have session variables setup to differentiate the user's security through a row-wise variable for a specific column and a session variable for another column which determines the user's association to the data source in which they belong to. This security works well when the data sources are seperated in the Business Model and Mapping portion but the issue that arises is that the user's cannot share reports when the data sources are seperated in the BM&M.
    I have dragged and dropped a table from the Physical model to the BM&M, I then dragged the second data source (with same meta data structure) over to the "Sources" folder in the first data source table in the BM&M. On the Content tab or each data source table I have defined the WHERE clause as such, where VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."SCHOOL") session variable is my row-wise column filter and the VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."GROUP") filter is my data source determinative:
    sandbox."".SANDBOX.OBIEE_CROSS_ENROLLMENTS.HOME_SCHOOL = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."SCHOOL") AND sandbox."".SANDBOX.OBIEE_CROSS_ENROLLMENTS.DATA_SOURCE = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."GROUP")
    Unfortunatley this only returns values in the BI Answers for the first drag and drop Pysical table in the BM&M layer and not the second Physical table drug into the "Sources" folder. I have also tried to create a new logical table and drag both tables into the "Sources" folder to no avail. I have experimented with the Fragmentation content on the "Content" tab of the seperate logical tables, checking the "This source should be combined with other sources at this level", which gives me an error in BI Answers that a column does not exist which really does.
    What could I be missing? Advanced thanks to those who reply.
    Thank you,
    Kyle

    Stijn,
    Thank you for the article link. That was very helpful! It seems that I had a few things off as you do need the "This source should be combined with other sources at this level." checked. In my two table source columns for DATA_SOURCE I defined a literal ('086496' and '085597' for the other) in the Column Mapping tab. I pasted the following in the Fragmentation content, checking the "This source..." box on the Content tab:
    eSIS.SANDBOX4_SCHOOLS.DATA_SOURCE = '086496'
    And pasted the following into the WHERE clause, checking "Select distinct values" on the Content tab:
    sandbox4."".OBIEE.NWOCA_SCHOOLS.SCHOOL_CODE = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."SCHOOL") AND sandbox4."".OBIEE.NWOCA_SCHOOLS.DATA_SOURCE = VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION."GROUP")
    This took care of my user's security, utilizing the session variables in the WHERE clause. I am now able to generate reports that only one user can access from one data source and share that same report with another user who can only see data from the other data source.
    Many thanks!!!

  • Multiple authentication sources with the same category

    Quote from portal help:
    "Multiple authentication sources can use the same category. However, because the prefix is prepended to the user and group names, you need to be certain that the domains involved do not have different users or groups with the same name. That is, if a LizaR user exists on one domain, and a LizaR user exists on another domain, they must be the same user because only one user will be created."
    Fine, let's say I am "certain that the domains involved do not have different users or groups with the same name".
    But there is other concern I have here. I want to know how portal will RECOGNIZE which authentication source to use?
    Let's say I have 2 auth sources AS1 and AS2 with the same category MyAuth. AS1 use WS1 to authenticate against LDAP1 and AS2 use WS2 to authenticate against LDAP2.
    Now, I have a user - Dmitry. I am trying to login into portal and I selected AS1 to do actual authentication. My question is how portal will CHOOSE which auth source to use because all portal knows about me is <MyAuth\Dmitry> that is came from portal login screen? Both auth sources match this pattern so seems like portal may choose any of them.
    Does it mean that portal will try to authenticate again AS1 and if this attempt failed then you AS2?
    I didn't find any explanation in portal documentation.
    Thank you.
    Edited by Bryazgin at 12/12/2007 10:42 AM

    Yes, it seems you are right. As soon as portal have found CORRECT user there is no issue anymore because user is bind to unique auth source that actually has been used to created this user.
    I think my main confusion come from the fact that having <Category> and <UserName> is not enough to UNIQUE identify user in portal as soon as <Category> can be the SAME for different auth sources.
    Let's have you have user created by AS1. According API this user created by this AS1 will have 4 different names, like sUniqueName, sAuthenticationName, sLoginName and sDisplayName. But portal is going to search user in portal database BASED on information that is available in login form - <Category> and <User Name>. At this point portal has no idea about sUniqueName and all this things.
    Now if there were 2 users in database that have been created by 2 different auth sources with the same <category> and <User Name> then I don't understand how portal will figured out which user to choose from. I guess <Category> value somehow MUST participate in sUniqueName value. <Category> has to be involve in process of finding user in database. In this scenario 2 users will be retrieved from database and what is important these 2 users are different, they have been created by different auth sources. Now question became which user is CORRECT one?

  • Bursting with multiple data sources

    Hello all,
    I am working in a retail environment and we are building reports for the stores. There are several reports and they all receive the same reports. We are using BIP Entreprise with the bursting feature and it works very well.
    The problem is that there are too many reports and we would like to combine all reports of the same store within the same PDF. We use the multiple data source feature and was able to concatenate all reports together.
    Using this new report and template, we can not make the bursting functionality to work properly: the bursted report do not contain all the required report components.
    For example, I have 2 queries A and B each producing reports for 3 stores: 2, 4 and 5. Without bursting, the output is as is:
    Query A - Store 2
    Query A - Store 4
    Query A - Store 5
    Query B - Store 2
    Query B - Store 4
    Query B - Store 5
    With bursting into a file using the store number, I get the following:
    File 1 - Store 2 - Query A
    File 2 - Store 4 - Query A
    File 3 - Store 5 - Query A
    + Store 2 - Query B
    + Store 4 - Query B
    + Store 5 - Query B
    I would like to have the following output:
    File 1 - Store 2 - Query A
    + Store 2 - Query B
    File 2 - Store 4 - Query A
    + Store 4 - Query B
    File 3 - Store 5 - Query A
    + Store 5 - Query B
    The main question is: can this be done using BI Pub Enterprise? We using version 10.1.3.3.2
    If it is, can you provide me with help on how to configure either/or the requests and template to accomplish this task?
    I create an SR and Oracle Support does not have an answser and suggested that somebody in the Forum might help.
    Thanks in advance,
    Minh

    I would like to have the following output:
    File 1 - Store 2 - Query A + Store 2 - Query B
    File 2 - Store 4 - Query A + Store 4 - Query B
    File 3 - Store 5 - Query A + Store 5 - Query B
    the bursting level should be give at
    File 1 - Store 2 - Query A + Store 2 - Query B
    so the tag in the xml has to be split by common to these three rows.
    since the data is coming from the diff query, and the data is not going to be under single tag.
    you cannot burst it using concatenated data source.
    But you can do it, using the datatemplate, and link the query and get the data for each file under a single query,
    select distinct store_name from all-stores
    select * from query1 where store name = :store_name === 1st query
    select * from query2 where store name = :store_name === 2nd query
    define the datastructure the way you wanted,
    the xml will contain something like this
    <stores>
    <store> </store> - for store 2
    <store> </store> - for store 3
    <store> </store> - for store 4
    <store> </store> - for store 5
    <stores>
    now you can burst it at store level.

  • Multiple Captions in a Text Field

    I am trying to create a text field with multiple captions.  The field needs to have a caption of TRANSACTION FEE but it also needs to have +$ next to the value field.  Any suggestions?  I created a text box for the field that holds the Transaction Fee title and then a text field with the caption of +$ however it makes it very difficult when needing to adjust the boxes.

    If your field is holding a numeric value, re-define it as a decimal field rather than a text field. You should be able to use the caption to hold the "TRANSACTION FEE" text, and make the "+$" part of the display pattern.  Click on the field, then click the Patterns... button on the Field panel to define the display pattern.

    You can compare stuff in the EL, but I don't think this is what you need.
    You can just use Java code in the backing bean class for all the business logic. You can use DAO classes for database access logic. Finally for displaying you can use the JSF tags such as h:outputText.

  • MTS - Multiple trusted Sources

    Hi all,
    I want to have multiple trusted source in the IDM 11g, There are 2 kinds of connectors MTS-compatible and MTS-non-compatible, i need to know that how to identify that if a connector is MTS-compatible or MTS-non-compatible ?
    Secondly I need o have AD as main Trusted source and 1 or 2 databases as additional Trusted Sources, I will be using the DBAT_91050 connector to create GTC connectors to for the DBs. does anyone know that if DBAT_91050 is MTS-compatible or not?
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10391_01/doc.910/e10363/resmgt.htm#BCEBGEDG
    Regards....

    A little further detail....
    I am running FMW, OIM 11g R1 (11.1.1.5). Kindly clear one doubt about "Database_App_Tables_9.1.0.5.0" that if it is MTS-Compatible connector or not ? since I am not getting any such information in the connector documentation. Moreover in the following document
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e14309.pdf
    Section: 9.9.4.3 - Multiple Trusted Source Reconciliation.
    there are two methods mentioned for the MTS Reconciliation one is for the connectors that are MTS compatible and the other for the MTS non compatible connectors, I need to know that in case of usning "Database_App_Tables_9.1.0.5.0" + "MSFT_AD_Base_9.1.1.7.0" which method can be followed since AD connector is MTS compatible and I think that DBAT connector is not MTS compatible?
    If you can refer any documentation that describes the procedure in a bit detail that would be great.
    My objective is to create user from AD, using AD as trusted source and fetching the additional feilds for the same user from the HR-DB and havimg a consolidated user record in OIM.
    Finally if it is possible to configure the DBAT connector to use the tables that have multiple level of Master-Slave relationship? i.e Parent Table1 having one Child Table and then this Child table is Parent of another Child table. P1>ch1>ch2..... what i know is that only upto one level of Master - Slave can be configured in DBAT having one Master that can have one Slave or 2 ,3, 4 Slave tables at the same level.... Mater1 > Child 1 - Child 2 - Child -3. is it correct?
