Help with exporting to WHCC using Lightroom

Please help!  My brother (professional photographer) is on a 6 month kayak trip and I've been left in charge of 20 years of photography!  I have detailed instructions on how to export photographs from the external hard drives, to an online company who will print them.  However, I cannot seem to get the export to work after hours of trying!
In Lightshop, I can pull up the photo that I want to export.  I was instructed to click EXPORT, and then click WHCC...however, I can't find anywhere to click WHCC.  When I use the help function in Lightshop, it directs me to the file menu, where I can click Export to WHCC...however, when I try to do that, it tells me that I've missed an export function and that the file doesn't exist.
I think I'm just missing the place to select WHCC...can anyone please help?  I've got to order some photos online (I believe my brother has me set up to use a company called ROES, but not positive). 
Thanks! 

Are you certain your brother didn't mean you should export the files to a *folder* named WHCC and then upload the contents of that folder to WHCC using their ROES interface?
WHCC does full color management so you will need to know if your brother wants the images to be exported as ProPhotoRGB, AdobeRGB or sRGB.  When WHCC generates the print they always use (that last time I asked them) Perceptual rendering intent.
Other questions are:
(1) what size prints?
(2) are *you* to resize the images and perform sharpening or is WHCC to do that?
I'd suggest you call them on Monday if you have questions.  They may have a record of previous jobs submitted by your brother.

  • Help with exporting HD for use in DVDSP.

    Hi Guys,
    Very glad I found this forum as I am just out of ideas to get this working. Here is the situation:
    I have a project of a wedding in HDV, which contains 3 sequences with the following lengths:
    The Service = 45mins
    Photoshoot = 5mins
    Reception = 80mins
    I have decided I would like to have the Service + photoshoot on ONE DVD and the reception on ONE DVD. If possible? If not possible I will have the reception spread over two but i do not see the need.
    First of all I have a Powermac dual 1.8 which doesn't have a dual layer dvd burner, so to have a higher quality result and to be able to fit more on I have decided I probably best to get a Dual Layer burner to do this project.
    But before I do that, I need to work out what is the best settings for exporting this project out of FCP 5.1 to work on a SD DVD? Do I use compressor? If so which preset or what settings of my own? I have tried various things and I honestly get lost and my project in DVD SP is around 12GB. So i try exporting again with other ways in compressor and then the quality just looks terrible.
    The FCP project is all in HDV with apple intermediate codec so I would be exporting from that, but obviously only need the DVD in SD!
    If it helps converting the HD project to SD/DV I can do that with the sequence which I did try and then some more export experimenting but it looked really bad.
    Please help guys I am desperate and no idea on what to do here.
    I really appreciate your time, feel free to ask me anything to help you determine what I should do.
    Thank you so much.

    How can I set the audio in the DVD SP project?
    I am using the "default" settings now which are 4.0 and 7.0 and it still says too high? Whats the deal

    I need your help with a decision to use iPhoto.  I have been a PC user since the mid 1980’s and more recently have used ACDSee to manage my photo images and Photoshop to edit them.  I have used ProShow Gold to create slideshows.  I am comfortable with my own folder and file naming conventions. I currently have over 23,000 images of which around 60% are scans going back 75 years.  Since I keep a copy of the originals, the storage requirements for over 46,000 images is huge.  180GB plus.
    I now have a Macbook Pro and will add an iMac when the new models arrive.  For my photos, I want to stay with Photoshop which also gives me the Bridge.  The only obvious reason to use iPhoto is to take advantage of Faces and the link to iMovie to make slideshows.  What am I missing and is using iPhoto worth the effort?
    If I choose to use iPhoto, I am not certain whether I need to load the originals and the edited versions. I suspect that just the latter is sufficient.  If I set PhotoShop as my external editor, I presume that iPhoto will keep track of all changes moving forward.  However, over 23,000 images in iPhoto makes me twitchy and they are appear hidden within iPhoto.  In the past, I have experienced syncing problems with, and database errors in, large databases.  If I break up the images into a number of projects, I loose the value of Faces reaching back over time.
    Some guidance and insight would be appreciated.  I have a number of Faces questions which I will save for later. 

    Bridge and Photoshop is a common file-based management system. (Not sure why you'd have used ACDSEE as well as Bridge.) In any event, it's on the way out. You won't be using it in 5 years time.
    Up to this the lack of processing power on your computer left no choice but to organise this way. But file based organisation is as sensible as organising a Shoe Warehouse based on the colour of the boxes. It's also ultimately data-destructive.
    Modern systems are Database driven. Files are managed, Images imported, virtual versions, lossless processing and unlimited editing are the way forward.
    For a Photographer Photoshop is overkill. It's an enormously powerful app, a staple of the Graphic Designers' trade. A Photographer uses maybe 15% to 20% of its capability.
    Apps like iPhoto, Lightroom, Aperture are the way forward - for photographers. There's the 20% of Photoshop that shooters actually use, coupled with management and lossless processing. Pop over to the Aperture or Lightroom forums (on the Adobe site) and one comment shows up over and over again... "Since I started using Aperture/ Lightroom I hardly ever use Photoshop any more..." and if there is a job that these apps can do, then the (much) cheaper Elements will do it.
    The change is not easy though, especially if you have a long-standing and well thought out filing system of your own. The first thing I would strongly advise is that you experiment before making any decisions. So I would create a Library, import 300 or 400 shots and play. You might as well do this in iPhoto to begin with - though if you’re a serious hobbyist or a Pro then you'll find yourself looking further afield pretty soon. iPhoto is good for the family snapper, taking shots at birthdays and sharing them with friends and family.
    Next: If you're going to successfully use these apps you need to make a leap: Your files are not your Photos.
    The illustration I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
    Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
    When you process an image in iPhoto the file is never touched, instead your decisions are recorded in the database. When you view the image then the Master is presented with these decisions applied to it. That's why it's lossless. You can also have multiple versions and waste no disk space because they are all just listings in the database.
    These apps replace the Finder (File Browser) for managing your Photos. They become the Go-To app for anything to do with your photos. They replace Bridge too as they become a front-end for Photoshop.
    So, want to use a photo for something - Export it. Choose the format, size and quality you want and there it is. If you're emailing, uploading to websites then these apps have a "good enough for most things" version called the Preview - this will be missing some metadata.
    So it's a big change from a file-based to Photo-based management, from editing files to processing Photos and it's worth thinking it through before you decide.

  • Need help with Export workflow.

    Hello again.
    Today I was experimenting with exporting a project using Export QT Movie and QT Conversion.
    My goal is to show a QT project on the web, either 640x480 or 320xx240, depending on how monstrous the file size is.
    My initial impression was that export QT Movie simply generates (I'm guessing) a full size rendering of the project. It's icon is a FC icon. What I did then was an "Open with..." quicktime(pro). This is where I get confused: I know that the next steps are for for preparing the project for sizes, compressions and so on. The export to QT movie seems to be a longer route to get to the settings that you need to use in QT Conversion, which after selecting QT conversion, you have the Format, Use, and Options settings.
    Am I right so far?
    Some background about my project- Easy setup= DV-NTSC. If I look in my browser, my clips are 720x480, 29.97fps, Compressor(?)DV/DVCPRO-NTSC, pixel aspect ratio, NTSC-CCIR 601 and anamorphic is checked.
    I also have still photos motion control stuff, PS tiffs, that do not have anamorphic checked.
    Form here on is where I get confused.
    Under settings, I am selecting DV/dvc-NTSC for compression frame rate 29.97, medium compressor, scan mode, interlaced, and aspect 4:3.
    The filters setting I don't use.
    The size setting I'm trying 320x240 with aspect ratio and de interlace video UNCHECKED.
    Is this a good workflow for the web. I notice on 640x480 my titles (livetype) seem kind of jagged.
    Any help preparing a project for the web would be appreciated. If you need more info let me know.
    Thanks so much.
    Jonathan

    Thanks for the additional comments and ideas.
    In terms of profile, as I mentioned, the intermediates will be going off to the editor (off-site) for editing on his FCP suite.  I'll stick to working in the prescribed HDTV (Rec. 709) space, and I've given him all the detail I can of how I'm working, but crucially I haven't stood at his edit-suite to see how the stuff looks.
    But, he's no newbie, so I'm hoping it'll be OK.
    Blasted shame about the H.264 BluRay not being compatible with QT - I thought I had this whole issue beat until that came along.  It's not a matter of disk space here, but the editor is mithering that the intermediates we are testing, in either PNG, or Animation, and a couple of others, are choking his playback.
    I'm not sure what to say about that, other than to go down this road of trying to squish these intermediates as low as possible without wrecking the look, hence finding that the DNxHD is providing the best solution.  If it had been a SD project, I might well have tried the native H.264, even over our normal PNG workflow.
    So what will play the native H.264 BluRay compressed output?
    Julian.

  • Help with exporting and image size or boundaries?

    I am trying to slide the cat into the scene a little at a time foir an animation project I am working on. However, when I export the image the back ground of the image expands with a checkered back ground( showing here in white) and shows the whole cat.
    How do I just show a little of the cat on the image at a time when exporting. I am trying to give the impression that the cat is walking into the room. I do not want to have to cut the cat up.
    I would be thankful for any suggestions.

  • Help with exporting Deski to text file via Web Intelligence

    We are currently converting from BO version 5 to BO XI rev2. I have a report that must be scheduled to a flie in plain text format. I am using a deski report. When I save as to text, the file is fine. When I schedule it in webi, the file seems to be missing the end of line character for each row in the table, so it cannot be used for an import to another program. Can anybody help with this?-

    well, in that case you need to determine if this issue only happens with a perticular report or all of them, if it happens only with reports imported from 5.x or with newly created reports as well.
    Looks like it is happening only when report is exported from Infoview, not in the Deski client. This might indicate a problem at the Web Apllication server (tomcat or one you use).
    If this issue is happening with any report - it might be a bug. In that case you have no options as there are no more patches for XIR2.
    On the other hand - if all you need is to extract data for consumption in another tool , why not use Data integrator instead ?
    Also, if this desn't work in Deski - does it work if you convert your reports to webi and export from those ?

  • Help with exporting to an Excel spreadsheet

    Greetings!
    I would first like to say that I am a student working on a
    data acquisition system for a company I have an internship with.  I have used LabVIEW in classes a lot but have
    very limited experience in creating VIs on my own
    (this is the first time Im doing this without a specific guide as I had in
    class).  This VI will be used to monitor
    the efficiency of an air pollution control system so it will be running
    continuously for a few days at a time so there will be a lot of data points.  The company I work for would like the VI to record
    the data from each signal every 30 secs or so to the same excel file with the
    time/date the reading was taken included in each row. So far the VI uses the DAQ
    assistant to take in data from temperature, humidity, and pressure thermocouples
    and displays the readings on the front panel. 
    That part is fine, but as you know it doesnt export the data.  The only thing I have tried that has worked
    is the "Write to Measurement File" 
    way of doing this, but the format it puts the data in is not practical
    for analysis as it has a lot of extraneous information included with every
    reading.  Another problem that I have run
    into is trying to split up the VI so I can have real-time readings on the front
    panel, but have the delay of taking samples that are exported to the text file.  My idea is to put the signals and front panel
    gauges in its own while loop and then the file exporting part of the VI inside
    its own while loop with the "Time Delay" icon.  To me all of this seems like it should be
    very simple to fix, but my lack of experience with LabVIEW is really hampering
    my progress.  Hopefully someone can
    help.  Thank you!
     ~Dustin
     The following is the VI I have worked on so far.  Thanks again

    One additional thing to note is that the latest code that was posted didn't actually write to an Excel file. It wrote to a file that you can open with Excel - after wading through a dialog box that tells Excel how to read it. Depending on what you are wanting to do with the data next, this is a potentially significant distinction.

  • Need help with the evaluation version of Lightroom CC : the app doesn't launch.

    Hello, I have installed the Creative Cloud and Lightroom CC three days ago (version d'essai).
    When I try to start Lightroom CC, I get a window with a countdown saying "28 days left", and at the bottom of this window there is a "pursue the evaluation" click button, but when I click on it (to start using Lightroom), nothing happens. I have not been able to launch the app for the last 2 days!
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,
    Here are some system info : I'm using a LENOVO YOGA 2, Windows 8.1, Intel Core i7, 64 bits.
    In fact, the Creative Cloud applications did not unexpectedly revert to trial mode because I did ask for a trial version. At the time, it was the first time I installed Lightroom on my computer (a new computer) and I wanted to test the new Creative Cloud & its applications for photographers (Lightroom 6 and Photoshop).
    As I said previously, when I try to launch Lightroom CC, I get a window with a countdown saying "28 days left" (which is ok because I installed the 30-days trial version two days ago). At the bottom of this window, there is a "pursue the evaluation" click button (on which I should click to start the app), but when I click on this button, the windows shots and nothing else happens : Lightroom doesn't open. 

  • Please help with Exporting from Final Cut for Youtube

    Hey guys, your help would be greatly appreciated!
    I shot a bunch of clips using 'ishowu' with the '640x480' option enabled... then imported them into Final Cut to make a movie.
    My question is, now that the movie is done, what is the best way to export for youtube, using what dimensions? I tried to export using 1280x720 for youtubes widescreen, but it stretches out my whole video making everything look abnormally wide. How can I get the best video size but without it streching out my video?

    Export it using 640x480.
    There is no point in making it larger because you cannot put in information that is not there originally.
    640 x 480 is the optimum size. Make it any bigger and it will just appear degraded.

  • Need help with a currently "in-use" form we want to switch to Adobes hosting service

    Hi, I am in desperate need of help with some issues concerning several forms which we currently use a paid third party (not Adobe) to host and "re-distribute through email"...Somehow I got charged $14.95 for YOUR service, (signed up for a trial, but never used it)..and now I am paying for a year of use of the similar service which Adobe is in control of.  I might want to port my form distribution through Adobe in the hopes of reducing the errors, problems and hassles my customers are experiencing when some of them push our  "submit button". (and I guess I am familiar with these somewhat from reading what IS available in here, and I also know that, Adobe is working to alleviate some of these " submit"  issues, so let's don't start by going backwards, here) I need solutions now for my issues or I can leave it as is, If Adobe's solution will be no better for my end users...
    We used FormsCentral to code these forms and it works for the most part (if the end-user can co-operate, and thats iffy, sometimes), but I need help with how to make it go through your servers (and not the third party folks we use now), Not being cruel or racist here, but your over the phone "support techs" are about horrible & I cannot understand them or work with any of them, so I would definitely need someone who speaks English and can understand the nuances of programming these forms, to please contact me back. (Sorry, but both those attributes will be required to be able to help me, so, no "newbie-interns" or first week trainees are gonna cut it).... If you have anyone who fits the bill on those items and would be willing to help us, please contact me back at your earliest convenience. If we have to communicate here, I will do that & I can submit whatever we need to & to whoever we need to.
    I need to get this right and working for the majority of my users and on any platform and OS.
    You may certainly call me to talk about this, and I have given my number numerous times to your (expletive deleted) time wasting - recording message thingy. So, If it's not available look it up under [email protected]
    (and you will probably get right to me, unlike my and I'm sure most other folks',  "Adobe phone-in experiences")

    Well, thanks for writing back...just so you know...I started using Adobe products in 1987, ...yeah...back then...like Illustrator 1 & 9" B&W Macs ...John Warnock's Helvetica's....stuff like that...8.5 x 11 LaserWriters...all that good stuff...I still have some of it working on a mac...much of it was stuff I bought. some stuff I did not...I'm not a big fan of this "cloud" thing Adobe has foisted upon the creatives of the world...which I'm sure you can tell...but the functionality and usefulness of your software can not be disputed, so feel free to do whatever we will continue to pay for, ...I am very impressed with CC PS on the 64 bit PC and perhaps I will end up paying you the stipend that you demand for the other services.
    So  I guess that brings us to our problem.. a few years back and at the height of the recession and near bankruptcy myself,  I was damn lucky and hit on something and began a small arts and crafts supply service to sell my products online to a very "niche market" ...I had a unique product and still sell that product (plus others) online...My website is www.vinylcouture.com...Strange? Yes...but there is a market it seems, for everything now, and this is the market I service...Catagorically, these are 99%+ women that use these "adhesive, sticky backed vinyl products"  to make different "craft items" that are just way too various and numerous to go into... generally older women, women who are computer illiterate for the most part...and all this is irrelevant to my problem, but I want you to have every bit of background on this and especially the demographic we are dealing with, so we can get right to the meat of the problem.
    OK...So about two years ago, I decided to offer a "plain sheet" product of a plain colored "stick back" vinyl... it is available in multiple quantities of packs ( like 5 pieces, 10 pieces, 15 pieces, in a packi  & so on)...and if you are still on my site.. go to any  "GO RIGHT TO OUR ORDER PAGE"  button, scroll down a little...and then to the "PLAIN VINYL" section...you will see the Weebly website order process.) You can back out from here, I think,..but, anyway this product is available in 63 colors + or - a few. So then the problem is,  how do they select their individual colors within that (whatever) pack?... .
    So my initial idea was to enable a "selection form" for these "colors" that would be transmitted to me via email as 'part" of the "order process".. We tried getting our customers to submit a  " a list" ( something my competitiors still do, lol, poor bastards)......but that..is just unbelievable..I can't even begin to tell you what a freakin' nightmare that was...these people cannot even count to 10, much less any higher... figuring out what colors to list and send me... well, lets just say, it wasn't working......I had to figure out a better way...Something had to be done.
    So after thinking this all out,  and yeah...due to my total ignorance, i figured that we could make a form with Live Cycle Designer (Now Forms Central)...(back then something that was bundled with Adobe Acrobat Pro), I believe, and thats what this thing was authored in... and it would be all good...LOL!
    Well not so simple...as you well know, Adobe Acrobat would NOT LET YOU EMAIL anything from itself.....it just wouldn't work (and I know why, and all that hooey), but not being one to take NO for answer,.I started looking for a way to make my little gizmo work.. So I found this company that said they can "hijack" (re-direct actually) the request to email, bypass the wah-wah, and re-transmit it to the proper parties.....for less than $100 a year,  I think...its called http://pdf-fillableforms.com/.
    A nice gentleman named Joseph Silva helped us program the thing to go to his servers and back out. Please dont hassle them...I need them...for now..it basically does work...try it...you should get back a copy of the form that you filled out...good luck however,  if you're on MAC OSX or similar...
    I have included a copy of both of our forms (and feel free to fill it out and play with it)...just put test somewhere on it...(and you must include YOUR email or it will balk)..they are supposed to be mostly identical, except one seems to be twice as large....generating a 1.7 meg file upon submission, while the other one only generates a 600K file or so...thats another issue for another day or maybe you can advise on that also...
    OK so far so good......In our shop, once Grandma buys a 10 pack (or whatever), Only then she gets to the link on her receipt page ro the relevant "selection form" ,(this prevents "Filling and Sending"  with "no order" and "no payment", another early problem we had)... which they can click on and it will usually download and open up on their device if all goes well...Then our little form is supposed to be fillable and is supposed to ADD UP all the quantities, so grandma knows how many she is buying and so forth right on the fly,  and even while she changes her mind..., and IT'S LARGE so grandma can see it, and then it TOTALS it all up for them, ( cause remember, they can NOT add)..,  except there is a programming bug (mouse-click should be a mouse-up probably or something..) which makes you click in the blank spaces to get to a correct TOTAL...about 70-80% of our customers can enable all these features and usually the process completes without problems for them especially on PC's running Windows OS and Acrobat Reader X or XI...at least for most... Unfortunately it is still not the "seamless process" I would like or had envisioned for the other folks out there that do have trouble using our form....  Many folks report to us the following issues that we know of.  First of all it takes too much time to load up...We know its HUGE...is there anyway that you can see, to streamline this thing? I would love for it to be more compact...this really helps on the phones and pads as I'm sure you well know.
    Some just tell us,"it WON'T work"....I believe this is because they are totally out of it and dont even have Adobe Reader on their machine, & don't know how to get it ( yes, we provide the links).....or it's some ancient version....no one can stop this one...
    It almost always generates some kind ( at least one time)  of "error message" which we do warn them about..., telling one,  basically that "Acrobat doesnt even like this happening at all, and it could be detrimental to ones computer files", blah-blah...(this freaks grandma out really bad)...& usually they end up not even trying to send it...  and then I get calls that even you wouldn't believe...& If they DO nut up and push the Red "Submit Form" button, it will usually send the thing to us (and also back to them at the "required email address" they furnished on the form, thats what the folks at the "fillable forms place" do) so, if it's performing it's functions, why it is having to complain?. What are we doing wrong?....and how can I fix it?...Will re-compiling it or saving it as a newer version of "FormsCentral" correct any of these problems ?
    Ok, so that should keep you busy for a minute and we can start out with those problems...but the next thing is, how can I take advantage of YOUR re-direct & hosting services?, And will it get rid of the error messages, and the slowness, and the iOS incompatibilities ? (amazingly,  the last iOS Reader version worked almost OK.. but the newest version doesnt seem to work with my form on my iphone4)  If it will enable any version of the iOS to send my form correctly and more transparently, then it might be worth the money...$14.95 a MONTH you say. hmmmmm...Better be good.
    Another problem is, that I really don't need 5000 forms a month submitted. I think its like 70-100 or less....Got any plans for that?  Maybe I'm just not BIG ENOUGH to use Adobe's services, however in this case, I really don't care whose I do use as long as the product works most correctly for my customers as well as us. Like I said, If I'm doing the best I can, I won't change anything, and still use the other third party, If Adobe has a better solution, then i'm all for that as well. In the meantime, Thanks for any help you can provide on this...

  • Help with Video Performance Issues using Flash

    Asking on behalf of a customer who has been unable to get any answers so far - are you able to help?
    Background:
    We have a port of our Game Development Kit which allows us to recompile all our games using Crossbridge (http://adobe-flash.github.io/crossbridge/) into SWF without any code modifications.
    Overview:
    Our framework is using OpenGL for rendering and we have successfully ported it along with the audio and video to run in Flash.
    We are experiencing performance issues using Video. We cannot use image sequence as some of the video animations are too long and would increase the download to an unacceptable size.  Assets vary between 256x256 - 1024x1024 videos.

    Here's the rest of the story.  Let me know if you can see any resolution, and I will connect him to the forums.  Thank you.
    Current Video Solution:
    We create an instance of NetConnection, NetStream, and Video according to most samples out there, and invoke draw to rasterize the Video DisplayObject into a BitmapData instance.
    The BitmapData instance has a fixed color component layout which is not compatible with Stage3D texture and is therefore has to be reformatted before uploaded to Stage3D Texture (See Code Listing below).
    Our Problems:
    Performance issues with RGBA conversion (either using copyChannel or manually reformatting is not fast enough) natively in as3; this required for stage3d texture.Copying each channel individual using bitmapdata.Copychannel seems faster, but not significantly faster.
    Cannot detect when video frame has been updated, therefore we may copy pixels that are not needed in enterframe (processpixel).
    Looping video, our current solution uses the NET_STATUS event Buffer empty; Is there a better way to loop videos than checking buffer and seeking to 0.
    Stepping video, loading FLV or MP4 side by side assets from HTTP or embedded does not support stepping? Is there another way?
    ActionScript Code Listing:
    video_nc = new NetConnection();
    video_nc.addEventListener(NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS , onConnect);
    video_nc.addEventListener(AsyncErrorEvent.ASYNC_ERROR , trace);
    video_nc.connect(null);
    // OnConnect Event:
    this.ns = new NetStream(e.target as NetConnection);
    eventclient = new Object();
    eventclient.onMetaData = onMetaData;
    this.ns.client = eventclient;
    ns.play(flvfile);
    ns.pause();
    //onMetaData event:
    this.width = infoObject.width;
    this.height = infoObject.height;
    this.textureWidth = NextPowerOfTwo(this.width);
    this.textureHeight = NextPowerOfTwo(this.height);
    cliprect = new Rectangle(0, 0, this.width ,this.height);
    cliprect.x = 0;
    cliprect.y = 0;
    cliprect.width = this.textureWidth;
    cliprect.height = this.textureHeight;
    totalFrames = infoObject.duration * infoObject.fps;
    this.hasAlpha = true;
    if(infoObject.videocodecid == 5)
    this.hasAlpha = true;
    this.bitmapData = new BitmapData(this.textureWidth, this.textureHeight, hasAlpha, 0xff000000);
    this.video = new Video(this.width, this.height);
    this.video.attachNetStream(ns);
    this.video.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, processPixels);
    // processPixel method:
    BitmapData.draw(video);
    GLAPI.instance.glBindTexture(GLAPI.GL_TEXTURE_2D,this.textureId);
    var fmt:uint = GLAPI.GL_ARGB;
    // converting pixels using copychannel or loop through pixels
    GLAPI.instance.glBindTexture(GLAPI.GL_TEXTURE_2D,this.textureId);
    GLAPI.instance.glTexImage2D(GLAPI.GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, fmt, this.textureWidth, this.textureHeight, 0,fmt, GLAPI.GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, 0, convBitmapData.getPixels(cliprect));

  • Help needed with Export Data Pump using API

    Hi All,
    Am trying to do an export data pump feature using the API.
    while the export as well as import works fine from the command line, its failing with the API.
    This is the command line program:
    expdp pxperf/dba@APPN QUERY=dev_pool_data:\"WHERE TIME_NUM > 1204884480100\" DUMPFILE=EXP_DEV.dmp tables=PXPERF.dev_pool_data
    Could you help me how should i achieve the same as above in Oracle Data Pump API
    DECLARE
    h1 NUMBER;
    h1 := dbms_datapump.open('EXPORT','TABLE',NULL,'DP_EXAMPLE10','LATEST');
    dbms_datapump.add_file(h1,'example3.dmp','DATA_PUMP_TEST',NULL,1);
    dbms_datapump.add_file(h1,'example3_dump.log','DATA_PUMP_TEST',NULL,3);
    dbms_datapump.metadata_filter(h1,'NAME_LIST','(''DEV_POOL_DATA'')');
    END;
    Also in the API i want to know how to export and import multiple tables (selective tables only) using one single criteria like "WHERE TIME_NUM > 1204884480100\"

    Yes, I have read the Oracle doc.
    I was able to proceed as below: but it gives error.

  • Export Results-Not Enough Memory (1).  I need HELP with this please.  Using Windows 7 32-bit.  Intel i5 4690K CPU 16GB RAM 120 SSD and 1 TB harddrive.

    Everytime I go to export a photo, I get an error.
      "Export Results:  Not enough memory (1)
    Using Windows 7 32-bit.  Intel i5 4690K CPU 16GB RAM 120 SSD and 1 TB harddrive.

    Even though you have 16gb of ram installed, 32 bit Windows can only use 4gb of it so 12gb is wasted.  This is the reason you are getting not enough memory errors and is a known problem with Lightroom an 32 bit Windows during export.   You need to change to 64 bit Windows.

  • Help with exporting Minecraft video

    Hello. My name is Reynir Aron. I make Minecraft videos and I recently switched from Final Cut Pro 7 to Premiere Pro CS6 and I love using Premiere.
    However there is one little problem, when I export the video (even if I do it through Media Encoder) the video looks very smoothed out (for example the text looks really crappy and isn't pixellated).
    Can anybody help me? The video is not being scaled up, the source video, my sequence and the export settings are all 1280x720.
    By the way, is there any plugin or anything that lets me export using QuickTime Pro 7?
    Here is a screenshot of the output I get:
    This also happens if I check "Use Maximum Render Quality".
    This is what I see in Premiere's Program window:
    I have an iMac8,1 (Early 2008) with a 2,8GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 4GB 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM, an ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB and I'm running OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2.

    I think my daughter is using FRAPS, but of course not transcoding, just putting that right into Premiere. If your captured file is 30fps, what is the transcoded ProRes file? I don't know if ProRes supports non-video settings, so maybe that is converted to 29.97? But then the edit sequence is 30fps, and I do see an issue - FIELDS is set to LOWER, but should be PROGRESSIVE. That could be causing the jaggies issue on your output.
    How did you create the editing Sequence? Try creating a NEW SEQUENCE with the same settings, except make it Progressive, then copy/paste contents of interlaced sequence into the progressive sequence and then Export again, see if that helps. Or just do a short sample to check, to save time.
    Thanks
