How can I replace one low quality source with another high quality one ?

Am I really this dumb or is it really this hard ?
I have one timeline / project / edit that essentially references one long source clip / event / file.
I have a newer higher quality transcoded version of the same source and want to replace the original lower quality version and end up with the same edited result just with better quality images !?
It's the same frame rate and image dimensions  but "relink" tells me the new file is not "similar" enough and won't do it !
Why is this so hard ? Is there a way to export a good old fashioned edl and then just reconform using the new source ?
What if I wanted to to replace low res offline footage with finished colour-corrected material and output a finished master - would that be this clueless as well ?
Please let me know the problem is between the chair and the keyboard - not between the hard disk and the power cord !

Guessing that when you created the higher quality media, it was done outside of FCP and probably changed some important metadata that the app is looking for. Or perhaps there is a difference between the original audio and the new audio.
Anyway, Luis' advice about the replace edit seems like the easiest solution.

The usual way to do offline online is within FCP – creating the proxies and then using Preferences to switch back to and from.
If you sent it out for grading, the Relink should work fine. If you haven't seen this kb doc, it's worth reviewing.

  • How can i replace the standard ESS iview with my own iview

    I want to replace standard ESS addr iview with my own WD developed by ABAP
    I added the iview(my WDA) into standard ESS addr page.
    (pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.pages/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.personal_information/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.cn/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.addr/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.addr)
    And make it visible.
    But I got this error in ESS PA addr :
    WebDynpro Exception: Application PER_ADDRESS_CN Does Not Exist
    Here is the error code :

    So , how can i replace the standard ESS iview with my own iview?
    Thanks

    Can you see any Javascript EPCF code in the old iView  ?  You are surely just going to have to find it  (if our hunch is correct) and analyse it and copy it into your new iView so that it functions in some way that at least does not error

    NO. You will have to spend a good deal of money to get a high FPS machine and those aren't cheap to get.

  • How can I replace a previous icloud account and add a new one on iphone 4S?

    I am using my wife's old iphone 4s and I want to set up my own icloud account and remove hers from the phone without cancelling her access to her icloud account.

    Hello topbleep,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you’re wife’s iCloud account is signed in on the phone you are using and you would like it to have your account. You can sign out of her iCloud account on the iPhone and sign in to your account. This will not cancel her iCloud account. To sign out of an iCloud account on an iPhone, please follow the instructions located in the attached article. 
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    On your iOS device: Go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Sign Out (Delete Account in iOS 7 and earlier).
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • How can I view ipod touch HD video with the same quality on a different device such as my computer?

    Video recorded on Ipod touch 4G appears "HD" as advertised when viewed on the Ipod.  Why does it not have anywhere near the same quality when viewed on a computer?

    How are you judging the quality on another device?  HD is defined by the number of pixels

  • How can I replace the Python cgi script with CF

    I am testing the sample app and want to just use CF to track
    peer ids.
    Can you give me the api to the web service calls.
    I can then create the CFC to handle this.
    In order to use the sample application that you built, you
    need to setup your web server and host the provided Python script
    (reg.cgi) for exchanging peer IDs. Please note that setting up the
    web service is not needed for the hosted VideoPhone sample. In
    VideoPhoneLabs.mxml, please set WebServiceUrl accordingly. You may
    also use Google Apps to host this web service (minimal
    modifications required).
    The Python script should be placed in the cgi-bin location
    according to your web server installation. The database is an
    SQLite3 database. In reg.cgi, please edit the location of the
    database in variable dbFile.
    You also need to create a database scheme using the
    followings:
    CREATE TABLE registrations (
    m_username VARCHAR COLLATE NOCASE,
    m_identity VARCHAR,
    m_updatetime DATETIME,
    PRIMARY KEY (m_username)
    CREATE INDEX registrations_updatetime ON registrations
    (m_updatetime ASC);

    the sample web service we provided has the following API:
    to record peerID "1234" for username "foo", do
    http://your.domain/cgi-bin/reg.cgi?username=foo&identity=1234
    you should get back an XML document with result.update=true
    or false depending on whether the database was updated.
    to look up the peerID for username "foo", do
    http://your.domain/cgi-bin/reg.cgi?friends=foo
    you should get back an XML document like:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <result>
    <friend>
    <user>foo</user>
    <identity>1234</identity>
    </friend>
    </result>
    there will be no "identity" entry if the user is not found.
    the lookup is case-insensitive but case-preserving, so if you
    looked up "Foo", the user field would be "Foo" but there'd be an
    extra "registered" field with the username as it was registered.

  • How can I share my iPhoto '08 Library with another user account?

    I found a post that tells how to share my library so that two user accounts on my iMac have full read and write access to my iPhoto Library, but I can't find the Library. It should be under /users/myname/pictures/iphoto library/data according to a Spotlight search I used to find a photo in my library, but that folder can't be seen in Finder.

    Mike
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    No, your Library should not be under
    /users/myname/pictures/iphoto library/data
    That's the location of a thumbnail within the Library. Using Spotlight to search the Library is dangerous as Spotlight doesn't understand how the Library is structured.
    By default - unless you moved it - the Library is in your Pictures Folder.
    /users/myname/pictures
    As to Sharing with iPhoto 08:
    What you mean by 'share'.
    If you want the other user to be able to see the pics, but not add to, change or alter your library, then enable Sharing in your iPhoto (Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other account. In that account, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. Your Library will appear in the other source pane.
    Any user can drag a pic from the Shared Library to their own in the iPhoto Window.
    Remember iPhoto must be running in both accounts for this to work.
    If you want the other user to have the same access to the library as you: to be able to add, edit, organise, keyword etc. The problem here is that OS X works very hard to keep your data safe and secure from the other users. You're trying to beat what's built in to the system. So, to beat the system
    Quit iPhoto in both accounts
    Move the iPhoto Library Folder to an external HD set to ignore permissions. You could also use a Disk Image or even partition your Hard Disk.
    In each account in turn: Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting dialogue, select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new library location. From that point on, this will be the default library location. Both accounts will have full access to the library, in fact, both accounts will 'own' it.
    However, there is a catch with this system and it is a significant one. iPhoto is not a multi-user app., it does not have the code to negotiate two users simultaneously writing to the database, and trying will cause db corruption. So only one user at a time, and back up, back up back up.
    Lastly: This method seems a little clunky at first, but works very well. Most importantly, it uses the System to do the job for you.
    Create a new Account on your Mac, call it Media. Create an iPhoto Library there. (BTW: This will work for iTunes too.)
    Enable Sharing on the Library:(Preferences -> Sharing), leave iPhoto running and use Fast User Switching to open the other accounts. In those accounts, enable 'Look For Shared Libraries'. The Library will appear in the other source pane.
    This means that both users will be able to see the pics. If you want to use a pic then simply drag it from the shared Library to your own in the iPhoto Window. This means that each user can have their own edits.
    If you want to add photos to the Library: Log into the Media account for that purpose.
    To make it all seamless: Set your Mac to log into the Media Account automatically. Set iPhoto to launch on log-in. Then switch to your own account using Fast User Switching.
    Net result: a Library that's permanently available to all users but also protected. Each user can have their own versions of the pics if they want.
    No partitioning, no permissions issues. Uses no extra disk space. What's not to like?
    Note: This process is simple in iPhoto 09, and requires none of these hoops. If this is a key feature for you you might consider upgrading.
    Regards
