Freeze Frame Duration Selection Is Incorrect When Using PAL Projects ?

I have done a search of the FCE and FCP forums but can find no information. This was originally posted in the FCP forum but is equally applicable to FCE.
Over here in Europe an apparent bug has been noticed connected with FCP 5.1 and FCE 3.5 (which is based on it) when using PAL projects.
To begin with, the default Freeze Frame time in the User Preferences is 12 seconds yet when stills appear in the Browser they are the normal 10 seconds.
If the duration in the Preferences is altered, the actual time of the picture in the Browser or Timeline is always five sixths of the time set.
This curiously is the same figure you get if you compare NTSC and PAL frame rates. PAL has five sixths the number of fps as NTSC.
So if in the preferences I set 6 seconds, I get 5 seconds in the Browser. Three seconds gives an actual time of around two and a half seconds and so on.
I must stress that it is only FCP 5.1 and FCE 3.5 that appear to be affected.
Earlier versions eg. FCE 1.0.1 and FCE 3.0 behave perfectly.
We don't know the situation with FCP 6 as we have not yet had the opportunity to test it.
You can replicate the problem by altering your Easy Setup to DV-PAL and look at the Freeze Frame Duration in the preferences.
Then import a photo into the Browser.
Alter the duration in the preferences and import another photo.
I am sure you will see that there is a large discrepancy between the chosen duration and the actual.
Is this a known problem and is there a simple way around it ?

CORRECTION !
It has been pointed out that the Freeze Frames are NOT affected by this bug - only the IMPORTED STILL PICTURES.
Incidentally, for any PAL user whose maths is not too good (like mine), here is a table of corrections:-
Freeze Frame Discrepancy.
From Final Cut Pro 5.1 and Final Cut Express 3.5 onwards there is a bug that makes the chosen Freeze Frame time WHEN IMPORTING STILL PICTURES differ from the actual time when using PAL settings.
This table tells you what time (in seconds and frames) to set your preferences in order to achieve an actual time:-
Desired Time.......... Set Preferences
01:00.......... 01:05
02:00.......... 02:10
03:00.......... 03:10
04:00.......... 04:15
05:00.......... 06:00
06:00.......... 07:00
07:00.......... 08:10
08:00.......... 09:10
09:00.......... 10:15
10:00.......... 12:00

Unable to change Still/Freeze Frame Duration in User Pref Edit tab

Process-selected new project, change Still/Freeze Frame Duration in user preferences on the edit tab.
Need to change to 10 minutes. Typed in the field 00:10:00:00. When I hit ok, I get a beep and it defaults back to what was in there, 01:00:00:00. So tried a larger number 02:00:00:00. Same result. A beep.
So went ahead with project and opened a sequence and tried to change it from the viewer. Same issue.
Trashed prefs and started from scratch. Same issue.
Ideas?

Trashed prefs rebooted originally.
Process as follows for trashing prefs. First time through I had opened a project. This time did not.
Open Home Folder
Open Library
Open Preferences
Delete com.apple.finalcutpro.plist
Open Final Cut Pro User Data
Delete Final Cut Pro 5.0 Prefs
Delete Final Cut Obj Cache
Delete Final Cut Prof Cache
Run disk utility to repair permissions.
Reboot.
Did not open a project this time.
Same issue but now I am able to put a slug in the time line and by selecting clip properties, can set the duration (was not able to do this before so some progress). Still can't set duration though as earlier described from edit tab on the user preferences page for still/freeze duration.

HT201335 What causes the TV screen to freeze but sound continue on TV when using Air Play from I Phone?

What causes TV screen to freeze but sound continue on TV when using Air Play from I Phone 4?

First try rebooting ATV and router. Beyond that, it's probably something within the network, typically interference.
To get a report of the network go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC). Look for signal strength and noise.
If on wifi try ethernet.

Photoshop CC. Colour selection not working when using alt and brush.

Hi, Photoshop CC. Windows 8.1 64 bit. Colour selection not working when using alt and brush. I have tried rebooting and other things like closing swatch panel etc.
The alt key is otherwise OK. It's not the recent upgrade from Win 8 to 8.1 (5 days ago) because the colour selection facility was working yesterday. Any ideas.

I'd say things sound desperate enough to try resetting Preferences
Reset Preferences
Windows — Hold down Shift Ctrl Alt immediately after starting Photoshop
Mac — Hold down Shift Cmd Opt immediately after starting Photoshop
If that fails, we need to know your operating system?
Do you have a full CC subscription, or by apps do you mean Photoshop, Bridge and Lightroom?
Another other information that might pertain ?

Selection screen validation when using PNP LDB

Hi guys,
I want to validate my selection screen parameters.Thats is if somebody wants to run the program without giving any input parameters to the selection screen(trying to run the report with a blank screen) I want to pop up an error/information message so that it will return the selection screen.I am using PNP Logical database for my selection screen.Please help.Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Karthik.

Welcome to SDN.
If you are using PNP logical data base then validating the fields will be little tricky...
You canc check all the other fields in START-OF-SELECTION and if they are empty return eroor. Remember all the field s on the scree... so I will suggest you to choose HR report Category accordingly.
Also,when it comes to date field then you need to check for the start and end dates rather than blank fields as SAP defaulted them to system start and end date.
Still, I will prefer to create a HE Report Category for the PNP database and use the screen while validating....that will be easy...

Does verizon selects collect data when using wifi ?

When signing up for verizon selects is states it collects data when using wireless service but does it collect data when using home wifi which is not verizon?

I'm not sure why one would want to participate in this program but if one is weary about it I for sure wouldn't use it.

The second frame lost in CAN communication when use NI PCI-CAN/XS2 card

I got a trouble on CAN communication recently.
I need to commmunicate a Cluster with CAN BUS,the baud rate is 500kBPS,the CAN card is NI PCI-CAN/XS2. The operating system is Windows XP.
normally,the PC send a command to Cluster,then read back a frame of data from the Cluster,but for some commands,the Cluster will return two frames of data,and the programe on PC cannot receive the Seconds frame,it lost.
I searched the forum,most of the reslut is the error about CAN BUS overflow,which make the CAN frame lost,but there is not any error report on my programe,and the baud rate is no that fast,I also use another port of NI PCI- CAN/XS2 to monitor the CAN bus,the second data frame never appear,when I replace NI CAN card with Vector CanCaseXL(CAN card) ,and call CanCaseXL's DLL in labVIEW,it can get the second CAN frame,the monitor of Vector CanCaseXL can get the second data frame too.
so,is there some software/hardware configuration need to be done to get the second data frame?
the attached pictures are NI-CAN/Vector CAN monitor and CAN init/write&read in my programe.
Any reply is appreciate!!! thanks

Thanks your code.
I try the code you posted, It still no work, I found you has improved the "Get data.vi",It works better,but the second frame still no shown.
I used the NI CAN monitor in MAX to monitor the CAN bus,there is no second frame shown in the monitor,See attach pictures.but It shown in the Vector CAN monitor and the code call the Vector DLL.
Have a great day.

Project Owner not mapping when using Create Project in Ideation Custom list

I have a custom ideation list in Project Online used for project proposals. When using the Create Project function in the ribbon, I select the mapping from my Project Owner people picker field to map to Project Owner ID. The Project is then created successfully,
however the Project Owner is listed as the person who clicked the Create Project button in the ribbon, not the name in the Project Owner field. This also occurs when running from SPD workflow. I know in on-premise situation this works as I expect ... is this
a bug in Project Online?
Thanks,
Josh

Josh,
Just wanted to say that, I was able to reproduce your issue. It works as expected on-prem, but not as online. I will update once I have more info on any posisble resolution.

Fonts Incorrect when using compressor

When I encode my .motn file straight from Motion, the fonts show up correctly in the finished quicktime. However, I've got about 62 of these motion files that need to be batch encoded, but when they come out of Compressor, the fonts display incorrectly...as if the font is not on my machine and being substituted.
I've checked several of the motion files and the fonts they are using are installed on my system. What would cause this to happen?

Ok, now I'm really stumped. So I took Patrick's suggestion and reinstalled the fonts system-wide. I checked the fonts were working correctly by launching a couple of the motion files, checking the fonts, then saving them.
I then trashed Compressor's pref files (and FinalCut's pref files just for fun). Then I repaired disk permissions and rebooted. Once back in, I launched Compressor and loaded up two of the Motion projects. After choosing the appropriate encode preset, I double checked in the preview window and the fonts were dispalying correctly. Yay! So I submitted the job and waited. I opened the final quicktime file and the fonts are INCORRECT. What in the world??
So, to recap: fonts show up correctly in Motion, they show up correctly in the Compressor preview, they even show up correctly in the timeline of FCP. But exporting from Compressor results in the wrong font and exporting my sequence from FCP crashes my system every time. I'm so confused.

CRViewer XI R2 Select Expert error when using dates

I am using RDC. CR XI R2 w/ SP2/3. When I open any report with dates in the output and then use Select Expert and choose a date from the browse or dropdown list I get an error.
"Error - the ) is missing"
-Thanking you in advance.... Brent

Hello Brent,
I'm sorry the RDC viewer and the Select Expert do not meet your expectations. The RDC was deprecated with the release of Crystal Reports 10. Once the RDC was deprecated it stopped receiving development focus for issues like this. The RDC remained available for two more versions (XI / XI R2) but it has now been retired with the release of CR 2008 a few months ago.
I'm surprised to hear that the Select Expert wasn't showing this issue in CR XI (v11.0), unfortunately I won't be able confirm this.
If you want to roll back to the viewer for CR XI (v11.0) you have to roll back entirely to work with CR XI (v11.0). You should not mix versions of DLLs (e.g crviewer.dll v11.0 and craxdrt.dll v11.5). This may work, but it would not be supported for any issues you might encounter. You indicated in your post that you moved to CR XI R2 (v11.5) to get past another issue that was resolved in CR XI R2, so rolling back entirely won't be a solution.
With the retirement of the RDC the recommended upgrade path for Windows application development is to move to the Crystal Reports .NET SDK. The Crystal Reports .NET SDK is available in CR XI R2 so if you want to explore this SDK as well you can visit the online developer library for additional information. Here's the link:

SQL*Plus displays European chars incorrectly when using Net*8 to query remote DB

I have two 8.1.5 DBs, one on Win2k and one on RedHat Linux 6.2. I can successfully insert and retreive Western European characters fine on each of those systems using SQL*Plus and Net*8, provided that I am connecting to the local DB. I can also insert these characters fine while using SQL*Plus and Net*8 between the systems.
The failure shows up when I try to view (select) the Western European characters using SQL*Plus on the Win2k system while querying the data on the Linux system (via Net*8). What gets displayed is the 7-bit ASCII truncated-equivalent of the character. I have verified that the data is commited and can be viewed correctly when a query is issued from the Linux system.
Has anyone encountered anything like this??
Any advice would be appreciated.

I am confused about your questions .
I have two 8.1.5 DBs. I can successfully insert and retreive Western European characters fine on each of those systems using SQL*Plus and Net*8, provided that I am connecting to the local DB. What is local db ? Do you mean you need to use dblink to connect from one database to another ? Or do you mean local machines ?
The failure shows up when I try to view (select) the Western European characters using SQL*Plus on the Win2k system while querying the data on the Linux system (via Net*8). Do you mean selecting data from the 8.1.5 DB on Linux from SQL*Plus on Win2K ?
What are your db character sets ?
What are your NLS_LANG enviroment settings ?
Which datatypes are you using ? If NCHAR , what are your national database character sets ?

Tableview selection looks different when using iterator

One more litte question about the htmlb:tableView (Design2003, content-style = "tradeshow", selectMode = "MULTISELECT").
When you select a table line, the line is displayed with an orange background. However, if you use a tableView Iterator where you use a textView as the replacement_bee to display some text, this text is not displayed with an orange background, but with only an orange border and a white bacground.
Is there anything I can do?

I'm currently working on SP-Upgrade-Checks (47 to 54) for our web applications, and this is one of the things I've noticed.
Got hold up because of some more urgent duties, but as far as I remember I dealt with part of it already successfully. There are still some open questions I have though, and I hope to get back to this thread as soon as I can make some clear statements about it.
cheers,
Max

Need to select link twice when using Browser back button

I see that my command_link works fine in normal scenarios.
But when I come to that page using browser back button and then select the link within the page.... the first time, looks like its regenerating the page and only when I select the link second time it is calling the action listener associated with the link.
Any clue as to how to fix this problem?
Thanks

Storage Spaces: SSD tier size incorrect when using EnclosureAware option in a pool

Hi folks,
We're about to deploy Storage Spaces in our test environment, but we encountered an issue while configuring Enclosure Awareness on Storage Pools.
When we create a Storage Pool (over 3 JBOD's) and set the option EnclosureAwarenessDefault to $True, the SSD tier size automatically decreases / shrinks to 12GB (sometimes 18GB sometimes 0GB).
Without EnclosureAwarenessDefault, we get 1110 GB of SSD size available.
The same behavior is seen when enabling -EnclosureAwareness on Storage Space (virtual disk) level.
A summary of our configuration:
3 SOFS connected twice to each JBOD (LSI 9207-8e - SES 3 ) = HCL certified
3 JBOD arrays (Quanta M4600H) (Firmware Management SCSI Enclosure Service (SES-2) = HCL certified
Each JBOD array has 16 HDD and 4 SSD.
SOFS are fully patched, including KB 2913766
Below 2 screenshots:
EnclosureAwareDefault = $True
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=BB5A32452CA3BD6C%21436
EnclosureAwareDefault = $False
https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=BB5A32452CA3BD6C%21437

Hi Partner,
Thank you for your detailed information and sorry for the delayed response.
After consulting with some senior engineers, please check the following:
Server manager does not let you set the column count of the space, which means that it is automatically selecting 6 as the column count, as there are 12 SSDs. Unfortunately, the column count must be less than the number of disks of each type in each
enclosure (limited by 4 SSDs), otherwise space creation will fail, and estimation will produce a small, somewhat random number. If you create a space through powershell and specify –NumberOfColumns 4 then it should work.
Hopefully it helps.
Feel free to let me know if you have any question. Thank your for your time.
Best Regards,
Sophia Sun
