How to batch processing and renaming of jpg's

Hello,
I am sort of new with PS CS5 Extended and I am trying to automate a bunch of JPG files by saving them as High Quality into another folder then add the following suffix _hr.jpg. Can this be possible ?
Scenario:
Source Folder: Original
Original File Name: DSC_xxxx.jpg
Target Folder: hr
Save As: DSC_xxxx copy_hr.jpg
Quality: 12
Thanks for your help,
G

Yes, use Bridge or Camera Raw.

How to batch process multiple layers to jpegs

I have over 500 layers of different texts over a simple background image. I need to move through each one of these layers, making only one and the background visible, then doing the same for the next, and saving each out as a separate .jpeg. I know how to batch process the jpegs giving each a different filename, but how do I move through the layers?
Thanks.

Hi, Paul--
You were correct. The normal script didn't work at all. But I'm a bit confused about how to use Layer Saver. I currently have all the texts in groups, labelled 1-50, 51-100, etc. What settings should I use to get it to work?
Thanks

Batch Processing to Rename Files

I use batch processing to rename file in Photoshop Elements 5.0. I renamed my files with the MRW extension and the extension was changed to PSD.
I also tried batch processing to turn the MRW file into RAW files. I was able to do that but then Photoshop Elements was not able to open the newly renamed RAW files.
Any suggestions on what I might be doing wrong?
Bill

You cannot make changes to your actual raw files. You must convert them to another format to do this, which is what PE is doing. The kind of RAW files PE/PS can read or create without going through ACR (the camera raw plugin window) are not camera raw files, but photoshop raw files, a very old PS format that is not good for much these days.

How to Batch process a .jpg into multiple image sizes and colour modes

Hi,
I am needing to find an action or script that when run on a batch of Jpgs will open them up run a few actions and save them as 4 different files as follows
start file:
image.jpg
end result:
image_RGB_300dpi.jpg
image_RGB_72dpi.jpg
image_CMYK_300dpi.jpg
image_CMYK_72dpi.jpg
At present I have 4 separate actions set up do do this so I am running the batch process 4 times to get this result, is it possible to combine multiple actions into a single batch process?
thanks for any help on this one.

Batch Processing and Putting Two files together?

Hello,
I'm trying to find out if there is a way, in Photoshop, to automate placing a logo file and border from another file into a set of photos? Basically, I have a folder of, let's say, 4x6 images, and I have a file that has two layers, a thin transparent border layer, and a layer housing the logo. I would like to find out if it's possible to automate the process where I can batch a lot of files to put this file (or the two layers) onto the original image, then save and close and go on to the next file. Any ideas how to accomplish this? Thanks!
Regards,
Dave

Here is a simple script I made a while back that allows you to place one of two different logo files on the image, depending whether the image is upright or horizontal in orientation.
All you need is to put you two logo files in a folder and tell the script which folder they are in. After that, when you run the script, it will place the appropriate logo file onto you image depending on the orientation. I used "C:\\MyLogoA.tif" and "C:\\MyLogoB.tif" for this script.
You can run this script from a batch process.
var doc = app.activeDocument; // This defines the active document
var width = doc.width.value; // This is the width of the original image
var height = doc.height.value; // This is the height of the original image
// Call the placeLogo function
if(width>height){
placeLogo("C:\\MyLogoA.tif");
}else{
placeLogo("C:\\MyLogoB.tif");
// This is the placeLogo function
function placeLogo(path)

Batch processing and parallelism

I have recently taken over a project that is a batch application that processes a number of reports. For the most part, the application is pretty solid from the perspective of what it needs to do. However, one of the goals of this application is to achieve good parallelism when running on a multi CPU system. The application does a large number of calculations for each report and each report is broken down into a series of data units. The threading model is such that only say 5 report threads are running with each report thread processing say 9 data units at a time. When the batch process executes on a 16-CPU Sun box running Solaris 8 and JDK 1.4.2, the application utilizes on average 1 to 2 CPUs with some spikes to around 5 or 8 CPUs. Additionally, the average CPU utilization hovers around 8% to 22%. Another oddity of the application is that when the system is processing the calculations, and not reading from the database, the CPU utilization drops rather increase. So goal of good parallelism is not too good right now.
There is a database involved in the app and one of the things that does concern me is that the DAOs are implemented oddly. For one thing, these DAO's are implemented as either Singletons or classes with all static methods. Some of these DAO's also have a number of synchronized methods. Each of the worker threads that process a piece of the report data does make calls to many of these static and single instance DAO's. Furthermore, there is what I'll call a "master DAO" that handles the logic of what work to process next and write the status of the completed work. This master DAO does not handle writing the results of the data processing. When each data unit completes, the "Master DAO" is called to update the status of the data unit and get the next group of data units to process for this report. This "Master DAO" is both completely static and every method is synchronized. Additionally, there are some classes that perform data calculations that are also implemented as singletons and their accessor methods are synchronized.
My gut is telling me that in order to achieve, having each thread call a singleton, or a series of static methods is not going to help you gain good parallelism. Being new to parallel systems, I am not sure that I am right in even looking there. Additionally, if my gut is right, I don't know quite how to articulate the reasons why this design will hinder parallelism. I am hoping that anyone with an experience is parallel system design in Java can lend some pointers here. I hope I have been able to be clear while trying not to reveal much of the finer details of the application :)

You suggest that these synchronized methods do not promote parallelism. That is true but you have to consider what you hope to achieve from parallelism. If you have 8 threads all running the same query at the same time, what have you gained? More strain on the DB and the possiblility of inconistencies in the data.
For example:
Senario 1:
say you have a DAO retrieval that is synchronized. The query takes 20 seconds (for the sake of the example.) Thread A comes in and starts the retrieval. Thread B comes in and requests the same data 10 seconds later. It blocks because the method is synchronized. When Thread A's query finishes, the same data is given to Thread B almost instantly.
Senario 2:
The method that does the retrieval is not synchronized. When Thread B calls the method, it starts a new 20 second query against the DB.
Which one gets Thread B the data faster while using less resources?
The point is that it sounds like you have a bunch of queries where the results of those queries are bing used by different reports. It may be that the original authors set it up to fire off a bunch of queries and then start the threads that will build the reports. Obviously the threads cannot create the reports unless the data is there, so the synchrionization makes them wait for it. When the data gets back, the report thread can continue on to get the next piece of data it needs if that isn't back it waits there.
This is actually an effective way to manage parallelism. What you may be seeing is that the critical path of data retrieval must complete before the reports can be generated. The best you can do is retrieve the data in parallel and let the report writers run in parallel once the data the need is retrieved.
I think this is what was suggest above by matfud.

Batch processing web pages from jpgs made from color corrected Camera Raw files

I processed and color corrected a set of photos shot in camera raw, then saved as tiffs. Then I set Photoshop to Batch process them into a web slide show. The images turned out looking like the raw files before processing....kind of desaturated, since they were shot on a grey day. So then i re-saved the raw files as jpgs and hypersaturated them to see if that would produce better results, but it did not. They looked almost as grey as the original raw files. I usually add saturation to files that will end up on the web, because ImageReady always seems to desaturate color.
I'm running Mac OS4.1 and CS2.
Thanks, Suzanne

Suzanne,
Try
converting your images to the sRGB color space before processing and/or saving them for web display. ALWAYS. Remember to use CONVERT to profile not
assign

How to batch process in Aperture?

At present I am laboriously adjusting each and every photo in Aperture. Since most of my photos need just about the same tweaks how does one batch process? In other words how does one apply the same adjustments to all photos?
TIA
Ken

heck ya it saves time ...
also, once you have them lifted and the L&S HUD is open, you can selectively uncheck or delete certain adjustments ...
you can also just lift adjustments or just lift metadata ...
very powerful the more you play with it ...

How to batch process auto white balance

I have 500 RAW photos taken in different lighting situations. How do I batch process these photos so that each photo is individually auto adjusted for white balance. I also have the same question for EXPOSURE.

If you're using Aperture 3.3 or later, you can use "Auto Enhance" to do this, which will attempt to automatically set the white balance, exposure (a mild tweaks), put a curve on the photos, etc. In general, I find it provides a pretty good starting point.
You can do it as an import preset. OR, you can select all the photos you want to edit, then choose Photos->Add Effect->Quick Fixes->Auto Enhance.
If you don't like it you can go through Photos again to remove all adjustments.
Auto enhance is pretty neat; it has 4 or 5 things it does. You could define your own preset that did ONLY white balance and exposure if you wanted as an import preset.
Note you have to do it through the menu at top. If you do it from effects on the left it will only apply to a single photo.

Batch processing and replication

Oracle 11gr2 (11.2.0.3) Linux x86_64
I wanted to know if anyone has come up with a solution for replicating batch process data. Oracle recommends in the documentation (as a best practice) to not replicate batch processing data through streams, rather to run the batch process on the source and then on the dest database. If we cannot do that, what are our options for this?
Thanks all.

Anyone have any ideas/thoughts?

Batch processing and rendering multiple clips in SpeedGrade CC?

I'm new to SpeedGrade CC, just watched 2 hrs of Lynda training, and I'm just about ready to go. Before people jump on my question, let me walk through what my indended use will be.
Unlike most of the content / workflow that was discussed in the training, I'm not color grading a sequence of clips stitched together in a timeline, but multiple clips that have been pre-edited to length, that I want to apply the same color correction two. This will only be done to small groups of clips, maybe 4-5 at a time, but since I'm all about efficiencies, I wanted to ask what the best workflow for doing this is.
Let's assume that I've taken one of the clips and adjusted everything natively in Sg (no Dynamic link from Pr). I like where I ended up with the settings so I saved a .look preset file.
So what is the next best way to handle applying these settings to the other files? Creating mutliple, separate Sg projects doesn't seem the efficient way, and having to cue up each succesively for Render, equally as slow. In the lessons the instructor illuded to working with and processing "dailies", which I also assume would be achieved through a batch process, but that isn't covered.
I appreciate the advice!
Steve

Interesting ... process ... you have there. Hmmm. I can't think of any way you could work in Sg that isn't on a timeline. Whether made in PrPro or there in Sg(native) ... it's a video editing program, and that's done on a timeline. Plus the way the both PrPro and Sg are designed, you MUST define and name a project before you can start to work.
Now, other than where the working files for the project will be kept, you don't really have to complete the forms out in PrPro especially. After you give your project a name and say where it's files will be kept, you can simply skip the rest and when you create a new sequence & drop a clip onto it, the sequence settings will be set to match your footage.
Now ... do you have all one type footage (codec, frame size & rate) or different kinds, say some 1080p-24fps, some 720i-60fps, some 460p-29.976fps, that sort of thing?
You know, what I'm thinking ... might actually be the easiest. Create a project in PrPro ... and a new sequence for each type of footage. Use the media browser panel to import all your footage into the project panel ... drag & drop a few similar clips to a sequence, then DL that over to Sg (takes a couple seconds) to grade/look 'em. Save 'em back to PrPro, then render that sequence out. Then when you know you've got a good render, either delete the clips from that timeline & re-use it, or create a new one. Do your next group. Rinse and repeat, so to speak.
I take it you've no reason to save the sequences of graded clips past rendering them, so you should be able to use just the one "projects" and import folders as necessary, removing them as you will. You won't spend near any time with the "project" details, but the programs will be happy.
Again, as noted above you can either copy a grade to other clips on a sequence or put an "adjustment layer" over the clips of a sequence in PrPro (project panel: new item -> adjustment layer) and then grade that ... it will automatically be applied to all clips under it.
And before you ask again, there isn't any way to work a single clip without it being a "project" with a timeline. These aren't photoshop, where you can open a single image.

How to batch process psd's into swf's?

I have several .psd images that I need to turn into .swf's. The only solution I can figure is to place the psd into illustrator and save. Is there a faster/easier option as I have hundreds of files that I need to do this to! I also need them to be .pngs. A quick solution for that would also be appreciated!

I have to batch process images into multiple formats as well and Actions have saved me so much time. I work primarily in print, so I'll admit I'm not familiar with the process you need to go through to save your SWF files, but you could always try to record the steps into an Action.
From there you can go File > Automate > Batch which will bring up the dialogue below. The top two menus let you choose your Action and directly below that you can designate the source where your files are (you can open all of them first or direct this menu to a folder).
Hope this helps some!

How do Server process and cliend process communicate ?

Hi
When a client session is started, the client contacts the listener (running on a port - 1521, let us say).The listener creates a Server process to server the client.
Now how do the client process and the server process communicate. I mean does the server process run on a seperate por( Just as the listener runs on a specific port).
Can someone plese clarify.
Thanks,
Prasad

Have a look at this note:
Oracle Connections and Firewalls [ID 125021.1]
When the Oracle client makes a connection to the database e.g. (sqlplus userid/password@alias), it compares the alias name supplied in the sqlplus line and looks for a match in the TNSNAMES.ORA file or Names server. Once it obtains the address for the database server, a connection attempt is made to the server from the client. The Listener is contacted on the database server and port redirection can take place depending on the platform, configuration of the INIT<SID>.ORA file and/or the Oracle product being used. The underlying network layer on the server will obtain a free port from the Operating System (OS) and send back to the client via the Listener the new port assignment. The client will then try to connect to the database on a new port. This is where connection failure normally occurs.
A remote Oracle client making a connection to an Oracle database can fail if there is a firewall installed between the client and the server and if port redirection is taking place. The firewall will block the connection to the new port when the Oracle client connects to the database - the client typically fails with Oracle errors ORA-12203 or ORA-12535. The client connection failure is due to port redirection from the Database Server's operating system. Port redirection requires the client to connect to the database using a different port than originally configured in the configuration files. Oracle Multi-Threaded Server (MTS) on Unix platforms, (without specifying the address with the ports in the INIT<SID>.ORA file), Oracle Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Windows NT/2000 platforms will cause port redirection.
