How can I use two sequences w/ different frame rates

I shot wedding (on Sony Z5) initially (1st tape) in DV widescreen (29.97/ 30 fps) but tapes 2, 3 & 4 were shot 1080p24 fps  Big mistake; now obvious.
Edited all in FCP 6. On trying to cut & paste sequences together I get " cannot nest sequences with different editing timebases".
I have 23 min.intro/ ceremony sequence as stand alone QT mov now. How can I best convert that and/or merge it w/ the rest ( 62 min. 24 fps  sequences), or perform other action to unite the diff  frame rates into one, w/ best looking quality for the DVD/ bride & groom? Trying to beat Xmas deadline...
Thanks in advance! Happy Holidays to all.
3 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo / 8 GB / OS 10.6.8  FCP 6.0.6

I went back and forth on this.
Ordinarily, I'd conform to the format that the majority of the footage was shot in. But if you're going to DVD, and it's going to be compressed to 480 anyway, then why not down convert the 1080 footage to 480?.  At the same time, I would imagine re-timing the 24 (23.98?) to 29.97 would look reasonably consistent with the 29.97 SD.
This could be done in FCP, but I think Compressor will produce a better result. The adjustments you need are in the Settings menu in the Encoder (with Audio set to pass through), Geometry (720x480 16:9 Anamorphic), and Frame Controls (Resize Filter set to Best).
This will not be a short encode, so I would first test a short section to double check your settings and sound sync are right, and to compare against the quality of tape 1.
Good luck.

  • How can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    how can I edit multiple clips with different frame rates on the same timeline

    You do not want to edit material from different frame rates on one timeline. You CAN do this, but it is a very bad idea - and this is why.
    Once you establish the sequence frame rate - lets say it is PAL material at 25fps, any material that you drop into the sequence other than 25 fps will have to be changed to play at 25 fps. If the material you add is NTSC (29.97), FCP will DROP 5 frames per sec to bring the frame rate down to 25 fps. Which 5 get thrown away? Every 6th one. This yields a funky cadence that becomes even more complex as as there are also interlaced fields (DV/NTSC is an interlaced format). Oh, and by the way, the image sizes are different as well. DV/PAL has 576 lines of resolution and DV/NTSC has 480. FCP has to scale up the NTSC to fit the PAL frame.
    You do not want FCP adjusting these things on the fly. You want to do a thoughtful (and time consuming) conversion so that you end up with all your material in one format with the best possible image from the conversion process. Compressor can do an adequate job with Frame Controls turned on. The Natress Standards Conversion FCP plugin is another way to go. A third option is to find a post house that can do the conversion for you using a hardware based process.
    The good news is, once everything is in the same format, editing it will be painless and the output process very quick.
    Whatever frame rate/ image size you select, I'd suggest using ProRes for the codec. It is 4:2:2 color and will withstand color correction and composting with much more grace than any variant of DV based codecs.
    Have fun.

  • How Can i Use two Different Public IP Addresses no my DMZ with ASA Firewall.

    How To Using Two Different Public IP Address on My DMZ with ASA 5520
    Postado por jorge decimo decimo em 28/Jan/2013 5:51:28
    Hi everyone out there.
    can any one please help me regarding this situation that im looking for a solution
    My old range of public ip address are finished, i mean (the 41.x.x.0 range)
    So now i still need to have in my DMZ another two servers that will bring some new services.
    Remember that those two server, will need to be accessable both from inside and from outside users (Internet users) as well.
    So as i said, my old range of public ip address is finished and we asked the ISP to gives some additional public
    ip address to address the need of the two new servers on DMZ. and the ISP gave us the range of 197.216.1.24/29
    So my quation is, on reall time world (on the equipment) how can i Use two different public ip address on the same DMZ
    on Cisco ASA 5520 v8??
    How my configuration should look like?
    I was told about implementing static nat with Sub Interfaces on both Router and ASA interface
    Can someone please do give me a help with a practical config sample please. i can as well be reached at [email protected]
    attached is my network diagram for a better understanding
    I thank every body in advance
    Jorge

    Hi,
    So looking at your picture you have the original public IP address range configured on the OUTSIDE and its used for NAT for different servers behind the ASA firewall.
    Now you have gotten a new public IP address range from the ISP and want to get it into use.
    How do you want to use this IP address range? You want to configure the public IP addresses directly on the servers or NAT them at the ASA and have private IP addresses on the actual servers (like it seems to be for the current server)?
    To get the routing working naturally the only thing needed between your Router and Firewall would be to have a static route for the new public network range pointing towards your ASA OUTSIDE IP address. The routing between your Router and the ISP core could either be handled with Static Routing or Dynamic Routing.
    So you dont really need to change the interface configuration between the Router and ASA at all. You just need a Static route pointing the new public IP address towards the ASA outside IP address.
    Now when the routing is handled between the ISP - ISP/Your Router - Your Firewall, you can then consider how to use those IP addresses.
    Do you want to use the public IP addresses DIRECTLY on the HOSTS behind the firewall?This would require you to either configure a new physical interface with the new public IP address range OR create a new subinterface with the new public IP addresses range AND then configure the LAN devices correspondingly to the chosen method on the firewall
    Do you want to use the public IP addresses DIRECLTY on the ASA OUTSIDE as NAT IP addresses?This would require for you to only start configuring Static NAT for the new servers between the inside/dmz and outside interface of the ASA. The format would be no different from the previous NAT configuration other than for the different IP addresses ofcourse
    Of the above ways
    The first way is good because the actual hosts will have the public IP addresses. Therefore you wont run into problems with DNS when the LAN users are trying to access the server.
    The second way is the one requiring the least amount of configurations/changes on the ASA. In this case though you might run into problem with DNS (to which I refer above) as the server actually has a private IP address but the public DNS might reply to the LAN hosts with a public IP address and therefore connections from LAN could fail. This is because LAN users cant connect to the servers OUTSIDE NAT IP address (unless you NAT the server to public IP address towards LAN also)
    Hopefully the above was helpfull. Naturally ask more specific questions and I'll answer them. Hopefully I didnt miss something. But please ask more
    I'm currently at Cisco Live! 2013 London so in the "worst case" I might be able to answer on the weekend at earliest.

  • How can I use two accounts ?

    How can I use two accounts (mine and my wife's) to PhotoStream to my mac? I have to turn off photo stream for one or the other...can't I just leave two accounts logged on so that the photos from my iphone and hers both go to my mac?

    Photostreaming across machines requires to use the same Apple-ID on all of these machines or devices. Share all of iclouds account stuff or nothing at all . No way around as icloud is designed that way. Photostream is not designed as a sort of gallery to share with outsiders. It is for your personal entertainment .

  • How can we use two BOM

    Dear all,
    my scenario is in this way way-
    how can we use two BOM for same material.first BOM for inhouse production. Second one for Subcontracting.(means i have to create Purchase order for partial qty.

    Dear
    1.Goto MM02-MRP4 view -Maintain two Production Version based on two BOM ( Alternative1 with Routing will be PV1 will be used for production in house  where as Alt2 with routing having PP03 as control key for external operation -PV2 )
    2.Assign the relavant production Version-PV2 in Subcontracting Info Record in ME11
    Now, based on the production version assigned in Info Record system suggests the BOM while BOM explosion in Subcon Purchase Order
    REFER : Subcontracting & BOM  alternative
    Hope this will solve your issue

  • How can I use two database in Dataset in SSRS?

    Hi,
    I am using one query to generate my SSRS report. In that query I am using subquery. Now I am pulling data from multiple tales.
    DB used in sub query is different than the rest of the tables DB.(So total I am using 2 DB(Database))
    So I see that in SSRS, I can connect query(In DataSet Properties) to one DATA_SOURCE only, how can I use other database which is I used in sub-query?
    I have to move this SSRS into PROD and I can't hard code that sub-query's DB name in my query.
    Please give me suggestion. Thanks!!
    Vicky

    In SSRS 2008 R2 you can use the Lookup function (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee210531.aspx ) and LookupSet function (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee240819.aspx
    Depending on your security set up, you can reference a table in a second database on the same server using a three part name:  database.schema.table.  This is more likely to work for you if you wrap your SQL command in a stored procedure.

  • How can I use two different ToolTipUIs?

    Hi,
    I want to use two different ToolTipUIs depending (in my case) on the JRadioButton that the Cursor is hovering over. For some JRadioButtons, I want to use the default ToolTipUI, and for others I wish to display a large amount of text over multiple lines. It seems to me that this is not easily possible as ToolTipManager uses the same JTooltip for each component, so setting the UI for JToolTip will affect every tool-tip-text.
    Does anyone know of a simple method to achieve this goal? Or can someone please correct me if my understanding is wrong?!
    And yes, I do realise that I could just use the multi-line ToolTipUI for all tooltips.
    Thanks,
    Muel.

    As a point of interest, does anyone know why JToolTip doesn't have a public setUI(ComponentUI) method? Most other JComponents have such a method. This is really annoying because it means you have to do 1 of 2 things:
    1. Subclass JToolTip and subclass the particular JComponent
    public class WrappableToolTip extends JToolTip {
         public void setUI(ComponentUI ui) {
              super.setUI(ui);
    } //end class
    // and the subclass of the JComponent
    public class WrapToolTipRadioButton extends JRadioButton {
         public WrapToolTipRadioButton(String text) {
              super(text);
         public JToolTip createToolTip() {
              JToolTip toolTip = new WrappableToolTip();
              toolTip.setComponent(this);
              toolTip.setUI(new WrappableToolTipUI());
              return toolTip;
    } //end class
    2. Rank work around in particular JComponent
    public class WrapToolTipRadioButton extends JRadioButton {
         public WrapToolTipRadioButton(String text) {
              super(text);
         public JToolTip createToolTip() {
              JToolTip toolTip = super.createToolTip();
              ComponentUI oldUI = UIManager.getUI(toolTip);
              UIManager.put("ToolTipUI", WrappableToolTipUI.class.getName());
              toolTip.updateUI();
              UIManager.put("ToolTipUI", oldUI.getClass().getName());
              return toolTip;
    } //end classThis problem is really annoying, because I have to write 2 or 3 (depending on above methods) classes for something simple. If it were a different component, I'd just have to write 1 class - the UI class. Irritating!

  • How can i use two channels to show different voltages in DAQ ?

    my problem is that when i choose different channels to read the outputs from my sensors, it ignores the channels which i have choosen 0 or 1 and it puts 0 channel only for both sensors. and the result is one same reading at both output guages, one reading is steady and the other is fluctuating. how can i make it recognize each one differently, is the proplem at my programme ? help me please

    Greetings,
    AI Waveform Scan.vi and AI Sample Channel.vi each have a Channel(s) input. You do not have anything wired to these inputs. By default, these inputs are both Channel 0. You should wire "0" to one of these inputs and "1" to the other.
    Good luck with your application.
