Help Needed!2 Soundtracks (ala Director's Commentary)

I fear I have made a simple process too complicated and hope someone out there can help me see the light.
I have a movie with a musical background and would like to give viewers an option for a video commentary.
In Final Cut, for now, I have my musical sound track, then did a Voice Over and duplicated the sound track so I could adjust the volume in one and then manually in FC turn on/off either the main sound track or the combination of the VO and modified ST. So in a backdoor method I can play either soundtrack inside FC.
OK, (and some of you pros will laugh at this I am sure), using Compressor, I deleted the combination files keeping the main one and sent a movie to Studio Pro. The I reversed the process and sent another movie over (sans main track) and WALLA! I have it doing what I want it to. I have a button to play either version.
But I know that this isn't the right way to accomplish what I want as I can see in the Inspector-->Advanced I should merely be able to select a Track for a button.
So how do I get my movie and 2 separate soundtracks over to Studio Pro?
Thanks so much and I will be happy to add anything that is not clear if there are any questions!

Typically, you create the FCP track and export that as a single file ready to encode to MPEG. You can add a second audio to your FCP work by using two more audio streams in the time line. You should also be able to export the audio only from FCP as .aiff.
Once you have the original file encoded to MPEG2 you will find it split into a video stream and an audio stream. You can now bring all three elements in to DVDSP, assigning one audio stream to A1 and the other to A2. If you want to encode the audio files to AC3 before importing you can do this as well - it saves space on the disc for one thing and also reduces the bitrate for the disc.
Once in DVDSP and set into the track, you can now use the remote control to switch audio streams (when simulating), or create a set up menu where the user selects the stream they want to hear - you don't need two copies of the video. You can have up to 8 audio streams in your DVD.

    Is there any standarda serch help avliable to assign the application directories to the Z field of ztable.
    Thanks,

    I don't think there is a standard search help available, but there is a function which provides a F4 dialog box to search app server directories... You can try creating your own search help with it.

  • Help with DVD Studio Pro Audio Track/Commentary Track

    Hi Everyone -
    I am authoring my first DVD for a film.  I believe I have everything under control - menus, chapter selections, bonus features - except for the director's commentary.
    I have created 2 main menus - one with a button to turn commentary on, another menu with a button to turn commentary off.
    They work fine.
    But when I simulate the DVD, select commentary ON, play movie (commentary track plays) ... Then click the MENU button, it returns to the main menu with the button to turn commentary ON, but the commentary audio track (audio track 2) is still activated at this point.
    Is it possible to tell it to return to audio track 1 if the menu button is pressed, or tell it to go to "main menu 2" if the menu button is pressed?
    I hope my question is clear.
    Thank you.

    Each track and story has its own end jump and its own Remote Control selection. If I understand your problem correctly, changing the Remote Control>Menu (in the Inspector window) from Same as Disk to the appropriate Menu should fix the problem.
    If not, a more complete explanation would help.

  • Adding a Director's Commentary

    I'm looking to create a commentary track on a project for the first time and I was hoping someone out there may have some ideas and/or shortcuts. I understand that a director's commentary track is just like any other audio track, and is inserted the same way another language track would be inserted in the Encore project.
    However, during playback, only one audio track is played... so it seems to me that the director's commentary track needs to be mixed with the movie's regular track... Is this correct? If so, how do you do this, adjusting levels as needed, etc?
    Thank you!

    Business rule: a combination consists of a maximum of 4 subjects (must contain)
    and the user is less relevant to a COMB_NAME(name of combinations) but user need

    you can use any of the COMBINATION table(either (2) or (3))
    and i want to know
    1)which design is good in this case
    (i think SUB_ID1,SUB_ID2,SUB_ID3,SUB_ID4 is not a
    good method to link with same table but if 4 subjects only(and must) comes
    detail table is not neccessary )
    now i am achieving the result by program-coding in C# after getting the rows from oracle
    i am using oracle 9i (also ODP.NET)
    i want to know how can i get the result in the stored procedure itsef.
    2)how it could be designed in any other way.
    any help/suggestion is welcome
    thanks for your time --Pradeesh

    Well I forgot the table-alias, here now with:
    SELECT C.COMB_ID
    , C.COMB_NAME
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID1) AS SUBJECT_NAME1
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID2) AS SUBJECT_NAME2
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID3) AS SUBJECT_NAME3
    , (SELECT SUB_NAME
    FROM SUBJECTS
    WHERE SUB_ID = C.SUB_ID4) AS SUBJECT_NAME4
    FROM COMBINATION C;
    As you need exactly 4 subjects, the columns-solution is just fine I would say.

    Hi all help needed I have a canon 40D. I am thinking of buying a canon 6D.
    But not sure that my lenses will work.
    I have a 170mm/ 500mm APO Sigma.
    A 10/20 ex  Sigma   HSM  IF.
    And a 180 APO Sigma Macro or do I have to scrap them and buy others.
    ALL Help will be greatly received. Yours  BRODIE

    In short, I love it. I was going to buy the 5DMark III. After playing with it for a while at my local Fry's store where they put 5DMII, 5DMIII and 6D next to each other, using the same 24-105L lens, I decided to get the 6D and pocket the different for lens later.
    I'm upgrading from the 30D. So I think you'll love it. It's a great camera. I have used 5DMII extensively before (borrowing from a close friend).
    Funny thing is at first I don't really care about the GPS and Wifi much. I thought they're just marketing-gimmick. But once you have it, it is actually really fun and helpful. For example, I can place the 6D on a long "monopod", then use the app on the phone to control the camera to get some unique perspective on some scenes. It's fun and great. GPS is also nice for travel guy like me.

  • Help needed! Raid degraded again!

    Hi!
    Help needed! I hava made bootable RAID with two S-ATAII 250Gb HDD and its not working! Every now and then at bootup I get a message RAID -> DEGRADED... Must be seventh time! Rebuild takes its own time!
    What am I doing wrong!
    T: Ekku
    K8N Neo4 Ultra
    AMD 64 4200+
    2 Gb RAM
    2 x 250 Gb HDD (Maxtor)
    nVidia RAID (in mb)
    P.S. I wery SORRY with my poor language!

    I'm going to blame the nVRAID because I've seen issues with it in the past. If your motherboard has another non-nVidia RAID solution, use that instead. Using the nVidia SATA ports as BASE or JBOD is fine and dandy but RAIDing always had issues. It's not even a driver issue I think it's just instability. Latest drivers and even boxed drivers never helped. Granted, some will report success with their rig. But on a professional level I've seen nForce issues on different motherboards and different hard drives that had RAID disaster stories.
    Good luck and if you don't have another RAID solution, my suggestion would be to buy a dedicated RAID controller card.

  • Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i on Sun Solaris 8

    Hey,
    Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8. The problem I met was: we followed the installation guide from the documentation. And we selected the choice "install software only". After it was done successfully, we run Database Configuration Assistant utility to create a database instance. But finally it always tried to create the instance at the root directory ( / ) which doesn't have enough space and then failed. The case was that we have set the enviroment parameters: $ORACLE_BASE = /export/mydata, $ORACLE_HOME = /export/apps/oracle9i. That means it should be installed at /export/mydata, but it didn't. Any help or advice are welcome. Thanks.

Now I am entering installation folder and try to do ./runInstaller as 'oracle ' user and getting the error mentioned before.
