How can I open the .sif file generated by andor solis

Hi guys, I am working with an imaging measurement using Andor's EMCCD. It is generating files in the format of .sif.
I am making a labview based analysis software but labview doesnt open .sif file direcly. I am wondering how I can open this crazy .sif file using labview direcly?
It is basically a stack of multiple images files with some head files.
Thanks

Hi Shuohuang,
You normally open image files in LabVIEW in a way similar to this:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/02971A30F5D8FC6986256A0A004F11A0
Or you can import them if they are one of these file types
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/DD7B2734795BDAF386256BE40067B6A0?OpenDocument:
I've never dealt with .sif files before and you say that it is a stack of multiple images so I'm not sure how the normal image functions will work with .sif files.
If you can post one of the files on here then I can have a play and see if I can figure out how we open them in LabVIEW.

FCP X Generator from Motion Transcode issue

Please help!!
I have created a FCP Generator in Motion 5. However it would not transcode. All the other generators prior to and subsequent have transcoded and are violable for me to work with in FCPX. Can I try and retrieve the work?
I can see the project in the saved Motion folder but cannot get Motion to reopen it.
Can I try and retrieve the work?

Have you checked to see if you have a version available in your autosave vault? Go to ~/Movies/Motion Projects/Autosave Vault/ and see if there is a good copy of your project there.

How can I open an FCP 7 file in FCP X?

I have files that were originally saved in FCP 7 and they are not recognized in FCP X. Is there a codec or file transfer that allows importing into the FCP X program?

As Tom said, you can use 7toX from the App Store.
(Go to the Apple icon at the top left of your screen and select App Store).
7toX is very inexpensive and does a pretty good job.

How can I use the Concentric Shape Generator in Motion to create a graphic?

Hi,
"Concentric Shapes generator
The Concentric Shapes generator is used to generate patterns derived from circles or from polygons ranging from 3 to 100 sides. Choose two fixed colors or set up a flexible multicolor gradient."
(taken from http://www.apple.com/finalcutstudio/whats-new.html)
I would really like to utilise this feature to create some graphics I need to create but I cannot find how to do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction? A tutorial perhaps...? I have looked and looked.
I basically wish to have a triangle shape increasing in size over and over again in two-tone colour.
Many thanks,
Philip

Not entirely sure what look you're going for, but here's an example:

Is that what you're looking for?

Opening a FCP 7 project in FCPX

How can I open a FCP 7 project in FCPX to continue working on a current project with the new software?

From Apple's FAQ - "When the APIs for XML export are available, third-party developers will be able to create tools to support OMF, AAF, EDL, and other exchange formats".
In other words, "look to 3rd parties to make this happen once we update the application to support the export APIs". That's how I read that.
Perhaps some enterprising developer will see dollar signs in their eyes and produce a FCP7 project migration tool....? They'd probably sell a couple.

I can't open any 60p .mov files in quicktime. Footage was shot on a JVC GY HM150 which is supposed to record in native fcp format. Any ideas how I can open these files successfully?

I can't open any 60p .mov files in quicktime or FCP5. Sometimes in QT the audio plays but not the video. Footage was shot on a JVC GY HM150 which is supposed to record in native fcp format. Any ideas how I can open these files successfully?

Get ClipWrap2 and convert to an editable format for your version of FCP5.
Probably DVCProHD will work

How Do I Open a Motion (5) Project in Final Cut Pro X?

How Do I Open a Motion (5) Project in Final Cut Pro X?

You can't directly. You can either export a file, or you can save it as a template, effect, title, transition, or generator, that can be used in FCP.

How can I open a project made in 2000 on Final Cut Pro to migrate it to a new version?

how can I open a project made in late 2000 on Final Cut Pro to migrate it to a new version to finish editing it? files, timeline and unfinished edit are all stored on hard drive since early 2001, with all the original miniDV tapes still in hand

Do you still have legacy FCP? If you not you need to find someone who will open the project in FCP6.0.6 or later. Export an XML file of the project. Use 7toX to convert it to an XML format that works with FCPX. Import the converted XML file to FCP.

How to get opening balance of a g/l account using query ?

Dear all,
I'm developing consolidated g/l accounts debit,credit totals month wise with opening & closing balances thru query based report,
i'have got expected results except opening balance g/l account,
How to get opening balance of a g/l account based on date as conditonal parameter ?
Any one throw light on this ?
Jeyakanthan

Hi ,
Please kindly help me on this.I don't know how to calculate opening bal and closing bal over a period of time by Quarter, and how to generate the reprot using crystal reports and please suggest me on this how to go ahead with this report.
Here you can go through the reprot requirement , and also an attachment of my Report template.
we have "Category of Investment" , "Income On Investment" ,"Gross yield" and "Net yield" are report fields.
1)"Category Of Investment " is Hardcoded.
2)In this we have to get "Investment" column from VTBFHAPO(BZBETR Field) table Database based on
Flow type(SFHAZBA) in VTBFHAPO table ='0100' for bonds category.
3)"Income on Investment" also we will get from DB using the following formula.
Income On Investment= "Interest IncomeAmortizationCapitalgain"
4)With the Date field(Making Date dimension based on date(DCRDAT) field in VTBFAHPO table.
By Current Quarter,Year to Date,Last year)
5)Opening bal---Investment
Purchase--Flowtype=0100
Meturity/Sales--Flowtype=0200
Closing balance=Opening bal+(Investment or Purchase)-(Meturity or Sales)
'0100' '0200'
Here '0100' and '0200' are Flow types based on this i need to get value from the same Field.
we need to Calculate "Gross yield" .
The bellow are formulas to evaluate "Gross yield "
Ist Qtr .Gross yield=Investment income/(((April opening balanceApril closing balance)/2)((May opening balanceMay Closing Balance)/2)((June opening balance+June closing balance)/2))/3)
Ist qtr. Year to date Gross yield=Investment income/(((April opening balanceApril closing balance)/2)((May opening balanceMay Closing Balance)/2)((June opening balance+June closing balance)/2))/3)
Investment income=interest incomeamortisationcapital gain
Iind Qtr.Gross yield=Investment income/(((July opening balanceJuly closing balance)/2)((Aug opening balanceAug Closing Balance)/2)((Sept. opening balance+Sept. closing balance)/2))/3)
Iind Qtr. Year todateGross yield=Investment income/(((April opening balanceApril closing balance)/2)((May opening balanceMay Closing Balance)/2)((June opening balanceJune closing balance)/2))((July opening balanceJuly closing balance)/2)((Aug opening balanceAug Closing Balance)/2)((Sept. opening balance+Sept. closing balance)/2))/6
This data should display over a period of time. based on "Current Quarter","YearToDate" and "Last year"
The quarter starts from April,i,e FY, I Like this i need to generate the report.
Thanks in advance.

How can i display a excel file generated by labview?

hello,
I'm looking for an exemple to display (open) a .xls file generated by labview after simulation but without use the tookit report generation.
somebody knows how could I do this?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
longar
p.s: i use labview 8.6
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is quite large dedicated Excel thread with a lot of examples.
I'm curious though. If you don't have the toolkit, how did you create the Excel file in the first place?

How do I open a .m4a file from Mail into Music app?

How do I open a .m4a file from Mail into Music app?
I mixed down a song from my band's latest session and saved it as a .m4a file (Apple AAC Audio format) and I e-mailed it to myself. Then on my phone I opened the e-mail message in Mail and held a long-press down on the attached .m4a file. But I do not see the option to open it up into the Music app. It only gives me the options of iMovie, WeChat, and USB Disk. Why would I want to open it up in those? It's a song. It should open up into the Music app so I can play it. What the heck?
Please don't tell me that I have to use iTunes to do this and sync my phone to my computer, because I *do not* want to add these songs to my iTunes library. They are *practice session tracks* that I want to listen to then delete later when we have new versions.
If there is no way to open them into the Music app, then is there a music player app I can get somewhere that will let me simply save audio files from Mail into it, and use it as a player for those songs? That's all I want to do.
The only reasonable workaround I have found so far is to save them as .mp4 audio files, which the iPhone thinks are movies, so it lets me save them into the camera roll as Videos.
Voice Memos would be acceptable as a place for them to be able to open into as well, but of course that's also not on the options list. Sigh.

Why is that such an issue for you?
Why do people insist on replying to threads without even reading the original post? I explained it there already!
I don't have to use iTunes to save an image from Mail into my camera roll, or to save a PDF from Mail into iBooks. Why should I have to use iTunes to save a music file into Music app?
But I'll repeat it since evidently you can't be asked to read the original posts before spamming a thread with questions that have already been answered. I *do not* want to add these songs to my iTunes library.
My iTunes library is a sacred temple into which I only allow to enter the very best and highest-fidelity musical recordings of all time. I refuse to sully and soil my iTunes library with crappy practice mixdowns from my band, etc.
Want to know why? Because I like to be able to hit "shuffle all" on my iTunes library and know that something that will improve my existence will emanate forth from this amazing device that I have invested thousands of dollars into (yes, I count my cell phone plan amongst the expenses).
I shall not have the crappy burner mixdown tracks from my band's practice sessions come up every five songs (we generate TONS of these... literally hundreds... and they are all high-bitrate .m4a tracks in the 10-15 MB range). I let iTunes keep my music folder organized on my computer. It makes copies of everything being placed into it, and I don't want 159 GB of copies of burner tracks hiding like roaches throughout my temple. We don't name these files anything sensible (in fact the guy who mixes them down intentionally gives them random weird names) and they lack metadata. So there's no easy way to delete them back out of iTunes once they're in there. It's a huge pain; I used to do it, but I swore it off years ago and *I'm never going back!*
The REAL question is, why does Apple force me to have to use iTunes—the most convoluted, kludgy piece of bloatware ever to issue forth from Cupertino—to do something as simple as adding an MP3 from Mail into the Music app on my phone? Why can't there be something simple—something equivalent to the Camera Roll inside the Music app, not only for the files I want to save from Mail, but also for my Garage Band exports, not to mention all the exports from all the various synthesizer, drum machine, and recording apps I use on a daily basis in iOS?
It would be awfully nice to be able to play the songs I've recorded right in the Music app without having to go through the rigamarole of adding those files to my iTunes library, tagging them with metadata, syncing, etc. etc. yadda yadda yadda—just to delete them again as soon as I've synced so they don't pollute my computer's iTunes library!
I bought Apple for ease of use, not so I would be forced to jump through a million hoops just do to something that ought to take one tap to accomplish! That's ridiculous!

FCP 5.1 file won't open in FCP 7

Hi.
I am at my wits end...I have a FCP 5.1 file that I have been working on for years.
I had to upgrade to FCP 7 for reasons I won't go into and now my FCP 5.1 file won't open.
It is a file with footage from P2 cards. It has magic bullet/looks builder used throughout. I am not sure if that is the issue at one point ONE of the messages I got when it crashed (I got a few different ones at different times) was something about looksbuilder not working right.
In a nutshell, it slowly starts to open and then quits. (It gets to about 33 percent open over the course of 45 minutes and then crashes.)
The file is about half a gig and there is plenty of room on the MAC itself so it shouldn't be that the Mac is overtaxed.
I don't know what to do.
I tried opening various back-up copies, etc. because I thought maybe something was just corrupted. NONE of them open.
I tried deleting render files to limit how much it was trying to process when it opened the thing.
I even tried turning off the external drives that hold the media hoping that if it couldn't find the media it would just open the shell of a file for me and maybe I could reconnect it all later. Obviously, grasping at straws...
I am out of options. Do I just need to wipe my computer and reinstall 5.1 from scratch? That would stink because there is another project being worked on on the computer that is a FCP 7 file.
I tried putting a copy of FCP 5.1 back on the computer (so I have 7 and 5.1 on there now) to get it to open, but FCP 5.1 won't work either now (I get General Error 41 - whatever that means) Maybe you can't have two versions of FCP on the computer? Maybe it thinks it got opened in 7 so now it won't work in 5? even though it never fully opened? Guessing...
I'd appreciate any and all help. All I want to do is open the 5.1 file and save it in FCP 7 and work from there.
Thanks!
Shari

Hey Michael:
Thanks for the response. I did something similar in that I opened the file on another computer that had FCP 7 and it was fine. So I saved that. Then I went to my Mac and tried to open that file and it crashed...but it said something about Looksbuilder...so I contacted them and they had me uninstall, reinstall and then fix the preference files for Looksbuilder and it now opens.
YAY!
Thanks again,
Shari

Filling of form fields changing depending on how PDF is opened, why?

First of all, here is the error message that I am trying to deal with:
"This document contained certain rights to enable special features in Adobe Reader. The document has been changed since it was created and these rights are no longer valid. Please contact the author for the original version of this document."
Software & PDF details:
Adobe Reader 8. V8.1.1
PDF Producer: Toolkit http://activepdf.com
PDF Version: 1.5 (Acrobat 6.x)
The PDF is set to with:
Filling of form fields: Allowed
After investigation I have found that:
If I open the file by double clicking, I am able to fill in the fields and save without any problems.
If the file is opened as a result of a software process trigger (which is what I actually want to achieve), the "Filling of form fields" is changed to "Not Allowed". This then results in the error message described above.
Also, I have another PDF with exactly the same settings as above (PDF version and Producer etc), which successfully generates as a result of the software process trigger. This file that works does not change the "Filling of Form Fields" value.
So, my question is, why would a particular PDF change the "filling of form fields" value depending on how it is opened?

Ok, that is a useful result, telling us a lot.
Some background you need. Reader 8 CANNOT SAVE FILLED IN FILES normally. To be able to save them they must be specially prepared. This is called "Reader enabling". (In your original message, "rights to enable special features in Adobe Reader") To prepare a file Acrobat can be used, or a server product which has had many names but is currently LiveCycle Reader Extensions. If this is not done, the form cannot be saved, whatever its origin.
Now, a file may not be changed/damaged in even the slightest way after this preparation. This will produce the message seen.
So, your test seems to show
- the original file is OK, undamaged
- by the time the file is delivered from the database to the user it has been damaged/changed.
So, you now have a path to pursue through the software.
(To clarify: this only applies if you used Windows Explorer to save the file, NOT any save function in Reader; if you saved in Reader please repeat the test with Windows Explorer).

How do u make FCP remember to keep motion parameters in the viewer exposed?

Hi,
At work I have a computer running FCP 6. When I open, say, the Crop parameter of a certain clip in the Motion tab of the Viewer, then leave the viewer to do something else, when I come back to my clip's Motion tab, the Crop settings are exposed (ie FCP remembers that the parameters were accessed before). But at home, on my FCP 7, when I try to do the same thing, the software keeps hiding the Crop parameters and I have to press the arrow to expose them every time anew.
Is there a setting somewhere in FCP to keep the Motion parameters exposed?
Thanks,
RH
