Import Problem with FCP quicktime file.

Hi,
I exported my 18 minute video with FCP quicktime (instead of quicktime conversion I did export quicktime video in FCP). When I try to add this video to DVD Studio Pro, The first thirty seconds of video import and all the sound imports but no video imports after that first 30 seconds.
Does anybody have any idea what this is?
Thanks!

Sounds like a corrupt file. You should try opening it in QT and then saving it out with a different name if it works OK there. Be sure to make a self contained file, not a reference file.
However, you may find it better to export from FCP through to Compressor and create your MPEG2 files there before bringing them in to DVDSP. This is a better work flow for lots of reasons, ensures you use a dedicated encoder and releases DVDSP to concentrate on what it does best (which certainly isn't the encoding, IMO!)

Thanks Nick but it is no my solution, because i work with After effects
CS6 perfect now with the same quictime files, it is a problem of this
version CC, it is not problem of quicktime.
David, you are describing the same problem. CS6 = Good with QuickTime. CS CC = Problems with QuickTime. But Tim's suggestion just worked for me. Perhaps it will work for you too.

Firewire import problem with fcp

i dont have enough room on my drive to import my movies so i got an external firewire drive to put them on to edit in fcp but now i dont know how to do that as i only have 1 firewire port? can anyone help

Do you have the new mac book pro?
If so, they do not use PCMCIA cards. They use the Express Card/34 slot system.
While it is not recommeded, you can try to daisy chain the camera through the hard drive. If you do not have a Canon camera this often works. Still, for the long term it is better to get the card to create a second firewire bus.

Problems with a QuickTime movie file. Error 2048 message

I am having problems with a QuickTime file.
The file is on a TDK 4GB pen drive.
I can access the file without problem directly from the pen drive.
I am using a Sony VAIO Laptop running Windows 7.
QuickTime version 7.71.80.42.
When I transfer the file to a folder or upload to send via e-mail on Hotmail and then try to open it I receive an Error 2048 message - "Couldn't open the file.......because it is not a file that QuickTime understands.
Any help would be appreciated.

You should be fine: a standard DVD can contain up to 120 minutes of video, but this includes menus etc.
iDVD is not concerned with file sizes, just length. It will automatically compress the iMovie file to the standard DVD format of mpeg2 - which is 4.7GB for 120 minutes!
I have once made a family DVD 115 minutes long, but after the family either protested or fell asleep, I have tried to keep them under 75 minutes!

I read files from the web, but there is a XML tag
with the encoding attribute in the RSS file.If you are quite sure that you have an encoding attribute set to ISO-8859-1 then I expect that your RSS file has non-ISO-8859-1 character though I thought all bytes -128 to 127 were valid ISO-8859-1 characters!
Many years ago I had a problem with an XML file with invalid characters. I wrote a simple filter (using FilterInputStream) that made sure that all the byes it processed were ASCII. My problem turned out to be characters with value zero which the Microsoft XML parser failed to process. It put the parser in an infinite loop!
In the filter, as each byte is read you could write out the Hex value. That way you should be able to find the offending character(s).

Success with iTunes but a problem with a temp file

Further to my recent post, I have now had some form of success with opening iTunes but I can only do this if my external hard drive (which has the remnants of some file left).
I have tried to copy and paste the files relating to iTunes but for some reason, I am unable to even access a file labelled "TEMP FILE".
Can anybody help or indeed send via email a copy of the file as I dont think there is anything in it. I know that when I have my external drive repaired I will not be able to access iTunes.
PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!

iTunes cannot run because it has discovered a problem with your audio configuration.
That one is most commonly caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (iTunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)
The following document may be of some assistance:

No, it is not set to overprint. Also, I have to add that the printing results were not consistent. Sometimes it covered and sometimes it did not.

Problem with uploading a file in Clustered Environment

Hi,
I have a problem with uploading a file in a clustered environment. I have an iview component which facilitates an upload action of an xml config file. The problem is that the upload of the modified XML file is reflected only in the central instance of the cluster and not in the dialog instances. The dialog instances hold the old config file.
Is there any solution to upload the file to all the nodes in the cluster.
Thanks
Kiran

Hi,
This is a known problem with clustered environment. Remember that your portal component runs on just on dialog instance and it doesn't automatically have access to the other nodes. However, there are some ways to get around this
1. Use KM to store files. KM is a common repository for all application servers and therefore you needn't worry more
2. Use an external batch oriented product (suresync/robocopy) to synch folders on the different DIs. You basically use your existing portal component, but there is a batch job which makes sure the upload folder is identical on all DIs (however, there is a slight delay depending on how often you run the batch job)
3. Store the files on a shared disk directly from the portal component.

Hi! I´m having problems with showing video files in Qlab on my Macbook Air. A sound/video technician told me to "blow out" my Mac. Was told to use cmd+ r when restarting. Is this the right way?

Hi! I´m having problems with showing video files in Qlab on my Macbook Air. It started suddenly. Consulted a sound/video technician who told me to "blow out" my Mac. Was told to use cmd+r when restarting. Is this the right way to clean up my Mac? And is it likely that some kind of bug is causing problems for Qlab to show video files? I´ve already tried with a bunch of different video files and sometimes Qlab plays them and sometimes not. I need the Qlab playlist for a theatre show and only have a week until showtime so starting to really worry. Is there anyone out there who can help?

Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
No idea why that was suggested.
You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
Check these folders:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
/Library/Input Methods/
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/ScriptingAdditions
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
~/Library/Input Methods/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

InDesign CS5 causing problems with InCopy assignment file but not content files

I'm having a strange InDesign/InCopy CS5 issue (Mac OSX 10.6.6; all system & Adobe updates are current). In my InDesign doc I have one assignment file containing two content files. All of the InCopy pieces work fine in InDesign (i.e., I can check out/in, edit, etc.). When I go to open the assignment file in InCopy, InCopy starts to open it but then crashes. If I try to open each content file directly in InCopy, no problem. I've tried deleting and recreating new assignments in InDesign, but they all have the same result in InCopy.
I think this actually is a problem with the InDesign file because if I export the InDesign file to IDML, then try to open the IDML file, InDesign crashes! I've trashed my InDesign preferences, made sure all cross-references are up to date, etc. Anybody have any ideas what else to look for in my InDesign file that might cause this problem?
Thanks!
Andrea

Thanks John!
1) Here are the first 10-ish lines from the crash report that is generated when I try to open the IDML file:

2) That works. Moved all pages (frame threading was preserved) to a new doc, exported to IDML, opened new IDML file just fine. Woo hoo! One of my editors won't be pleased that all of the tracked changes have disappeared, but at least the file functions now
Wish I knew what caused the problem in the first place so we could (hopefully) prevent this from happening again. Any ideas?
Thanks again for your help!
Cheers,
Andrea

Problem with printing txt file

I have a problem with printing txt file. My code looks like :
String filename = something.txt";
DocFlavor flavor = DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE;
PrintService[] services = PrintServiceLookup.lookupPrintServices(
          flavor, null);
PrintRequestAttributeSet pras = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
pras.add(PrintQuality.DRAFT);
pras.add(new Copies(1));
pras.add(MediaSizeName.ISO_A4);
pras.add(Sides.ONE_SIDED);
pras.add(Chromaticity.MONOCHROME);
PrintService service = ServiceUI.printDialog(null, 200, 200,
          services, services[0],
          null,
          pras);
if (service != null)
try
DocPrintJob job = service.createPrintJob();
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(filename);
DocAttributeSet das = new HashDocAttributeSet();
Doc doc = new SimpleDoc(fis, flavor, das);
job.print(doc, pras);
Thread.sleep(10000);
catch(FileNotFoundException e)
catch(PrintException e1)
catch(InterruptedException e2)
It doesn't work :(
What is my purpose: I would like to print .txt file but I would like to get PrintDialog where I can choose PrintQuality, Chromaticity etc. I found also that I should use DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.TEXT_PLAIN_HOST but I don't know how.
I will be very gratefull for help :)

I tested it on 3 printers (different models of hp). 2 of them don't give me any error but when it started print priter stoped (just as it dosesn't have a paper), but 1 of them doesn't react (there were no errors), i thought tahat something was wrong with printers but when I change DocFlavor.INPUT_STREAM.AUTOSENSE to DocFlavor.GIF and filename to dog.gif it works so mybe there is another way to print txt file
