Importing Avid Meridian QT file into FCE 3.5 HD

I graphics house created a 12 sec. 56.8MB title animation for a 30 minute project I'm editing in FCE. I can import/view the file using my QT Pro app on my PowerBook G4, but I cannot open the same file on my MacPro 2.66 using QT. The graphics guy exported the graphic using Avid Meridian codec. A Get Info. on both computers indicates I have the latest upgrade (QuickTime™ Version 7.2.0, Player Version 7.2 (7.2) Bu, when I click on "Properties" I see that under QT Export>Codecs>Options my PB offers the Avid Meridian codecs, but the PowerMac does not. Is this an Intel thing or what. Please can I get help I'm under a dealine to deliver.
Thanks, in advance,
Karl

A bit more info. I neglected to add that I have the latest version of Flip4Mac Pro installed on both computers. And, for some reason, I get a drop down menu that shows the Avid Meridian codec as a choice when exporting – but only on my PowerBook G4. So, this morning, I imported the 12 sec. graphic into FCE on my PB – saved it – quit FCE and transferred the resulting FCE file via ethernet to my MacPro. Then I turned on the external drive I stored it on, and opened that same file in FCE on my MacPro – and, voila! There was the file and it played perfectly so I exported it to tape. And, then I re-imported it to the MacPro program I was working on and I'm all set! Kinda dorky, but it worked. Thanks for the response.

How to import .mpg files into FCE ?

I have succesfully installed the MPEG StreamClip & flip4mac into my iMac. So now I can both play wmv files on my iMac as well as importing wmv files into iMovie & FCE.
But now I have another problem:
1) How do I play mpg files on my iMac ?
2) How do I bring import mpg files into FCE ?
Thank you.

QTPro gives you many more capabilities than the free player, but I don't think you need it to do anything you've described. You DO need the MPEG-2 Playback component. I'd start there, then see if you need any of the options provided by QTPro.
Hi there,
I have purchased the MPEG-2 Playback component from the Apple Store.
I can now convert the mpg files to mov using the MPEG StreamClip.
However, I cannot playback the original mpg files using QuickTime Player. I can only playback the original mpg files if I click on the mpg file then goto more info & change open with MPEG StreamClip.
But how do I open with QuickTime MPEG-2 playback ? I do not even know where the OS installed the MPEG-2 Playback component to ?
Thanks

Cannot import an iMovie HD project into FCE

Hi,
I've been trying to import an iMovie HD (iMovie 6.0.4) project into FCE and all I get is an error:-
I've also tried to import the same project file into iMovie '09 but nothing is imported.
Any suggestions, please?
Thanks,
TonyT

Hi
NO - Not really !
iMovie 1 to HD6 - is one program and it's evolution.
iMovie'08 to '13 - is something completly different - NO code is used from previous iMovie !
So really No other program - iMovie'08 - '13 or FinalCut Express, Pro or Pro-X or Adobe Premiere etc can import a project so that all work (transitions. texts etc) still remain in an editable form.
What You can do is
• Finalize project in iM HD6 - or -
• Export out as a movie - QT.mov and use this as a template in FinalCut etc and re-build - (doesn't work in iMovie'08 - '13 as it only holds one Video track).

Importing 720 x 400 .avi into FCE?

Hi all,
Essentially, I'm trying to import segments of a long .avi file (720x400) into FCE, to be used in a 720 x 576 DV-PAL project.
Thus far, I have used Mpeg Streamclip to export the clips to Quicktime files, unscaled at 720 x 400, and FCE then displays it centred with a letterbox effect. That's the outcome I'd be happy with.
But there's a slight hiccup. I'm placing subtitles over the top of certain sections, using Title 3D and cropped Mattes, you see. When I playback the timeline BEFORE rendering (ie.: a green 'preview' bar above the subtitled bits) everything runs smoothly and appears seamless. But then when I render, the segments of video with subtitles (and only these segments) are pulled out of the correct aspect ratio, so the video appears stretched vertically. It doesn't stretch to fit the whole 576 display - there is a small letterbox - but obviously it doesn't look correct because the picture chops back and forward to stretched and unstretched video. It looks great between subtitles, but then hideous in subtitled bits!
Do you have any advice on how to work around the problem? I'd considered importing the .avi segments to QT in DV-PAL 700x576, but I don't want to change the aspect ratio. Can Mpeg Streamclip add in the top and bottom letterboxes for me?
Hope this makes sense. Cheers, appreciate the help as always.

A DV-NTSC video file of 12GB should be a video about 55 minutes in length. If that's the approximate length of your avi video file, then you're probably good to go.
Have you brought the QT file into FCE? Did it behave properly?
FCE's learning curve IS pretty steep. You'd be wise to invest in some training material. Two excellent choices:

Hi
Why are you trying to import BPM zip file are you trying to configure the out of the box workflows?
They are something that need to be deployed from the process admin on BPM.
There would be the .exp file you would need as its BPM 10g that you would need to use.

How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe?

How do I import Map Info Tab files into Spatial for a map of europe via FME and have oracle spatial draw the map without problems?
So far I've got to the stage where I can import the data, spatially index it (in oracle 9i) and get my SVG (scaleable vector graphics) application to view the map.
The problem is that countries that have more than one polygon (more than one row in the database) do not draw properly.
When I view the Map Info tab file in the FME viewer I can see that the data is fine, but I can also see that some of the polygons used to draw a country are donugts and some aren't.
This seems to cause a problem when I import the data into oracle spatial as I don't know if a row in the table needs to be inserted as an independent SDO_GEOMETRY or if it should form part of a larger SDO_GEOMETRY (as in 2 or more rows make up the polygon shape for a country).
I have a feeling that I'm not using FME correctly, because at the moment I have to import the tab file into Oracle then re-insert the data into a spatially formatted table (one with a spatial index) - I get the impression that FME should do that for me but as I'm new to this I don't really know.
Any Help welcome :|
Tim

Tim,
MapInfo has a free utility called EasyLoader that allows you to upload a table directly to Oracle. EasyLoader creates the geometries and spatial index. You can download it free from http://www.mapinfo.com/products/download.cfm?ProductID=1044

Import a 10g DMP file into a 9.2.0.5 instance

Is it possible to import a 10g DMP file into a 9.2.0.5 instance? Thanks
in advance for your thoughts.

No, do NOT run the catexp.sql from 9i in your 10g db! That was only a valid method with Oracle 6/7 and Oracle 7/8!
Just use the Oracle 9.2 version of exp to create the dumpfile from the 10g database. You can use SQL*Net to connect to the 10g db from your 9.2 server connecting like system/manager@tnsname. Then use 9.2 imp to import the dumpfile into your 9.2 db.
If you have access to Metalink please refer to the following note for full details on compatibility between Oracle releases for exp/imp: 132904.1

How to Import AVCHD 1080/60p Files into Final Cut Pro 7?

How do I import AVCHD 1080 / 60p Files into Final Cut Pro 7? And if there is no direct way [I certainly haven't found one, but I'm no expert], what additional software would be used? I want to import the files from a Panasonic HDC-HS700 onto an Intel Mac laptop [Mac OSX 10.5.8]? Obviously I don't want to compress & compromise my footage.
I’m sure a simple, straightforward series of steps would help many people with this issue.
Thanks!

Thanks for the response!
I'm guessing you've found ClipWrap2 to be better than competing products [such as AVCHD Converter for Mac, Toast Titanium, or Voltaic].
On to the next steps. Using Clipwrap2, would I leave the checkbox "Convert Audio to LPCM" selected or deselected [and what the heck is LPCM?]. In the pulldown menu would I choose "Rewrap (Don't alter video samples)" or do I save a step by choosing "Apple ProRes 422"?
And finally, am I gaining anything by shooting 1080/60p on this Panasonic HD Camera other than a headache? [Some have suggested this is not a True 60p.]

How do I import a SPSS .sav file into SQL 2008 r2 using SSIS

Hi there,
Like the title says, I'm trying to import an SPSS .SAV file into an SQL 2008 R2 database using SSIS.
I've tried a few things, but i cant seem to get it to work properly. I'm hoping there's someone out there who could point me in the right direction.
I've tried the following:
Tried the IBM step by step manual (http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/spssdc/v6r0m1/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.spss.ddl%2Faccess_odbc.htm)
--Couldnt folow this guide because I didnt have the SPSS MR DM-2 OLE DB Provider.
Tried installing the provider using (http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/spssdc/v7r0m0/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.spss.ddl%2Fdts_troubleshooting.htm) as a guide to download the provider listed (www-03.ibm.com/software/products/nl/spss-data-model).
--This didnt work, I still could not see the provider listed after install and rebooting the server.
Tried to get the file as CSV (Company couldnt provide it in CSV or another format)
The server is a Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise 64-bit, has the Data Collection Data Model installed on it with SQL Server 2008 R2.
If anyone could point me in the right direction they could make my day!
Thanks in advance!
Ronny

Hi Ronny,

Import all your picture files into iMovie

How do you import all your picture files into imovie all at one instead of one at a time?

Put them into a folder then drag the folder to the timeline in a project. It's best to use iPhoto for this, as it's easily accessible from the Photo Browser in iMovie.
In iPhoto, create an album containing all the photos you wish to import to iMovie. The iPhoto album can then be dragged from iMovie's Photo Browser. It's best to place the photos in the desired order in the iPhoto album before dragging into the iMovie project.
By "pictures" I'm assuming that you mean photos (or stills) - not video clips.

How do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

how do I import iPhoto raw (NEF) files into Lightroom 3.6?

You will need an application that can convert those pcd files into one that iPhoto supports, mainly jpeg. GraphicConverter is supposed to support many, many formats and might just support the pcd. If so you could use it to convert them to jpegs.
There's an automator workflow that I've put into an application that will take many image files and convert them into jpeg with the RGB color profile. I've never tried it on the Kodak files but you can give it a try. It's called +*Convert to JPG and Embed sRGB profile*+ and can be downloaded from Toad's Cellar. Make a copy of a couple of files and see if it will work. If so then you can batch convert folders of the files at once by dragging them onto the application.
I believe GC can do batch conversions but am not familiar with the application.

Problem importing Premier Pro CS4 files into CS5

I have loaded Premier Pro CS5 onto a spanking new 64 bit machine. When I import a CS4 project file into CS5, it asks me to locate the raw video files but nothing else. All titles with graphics in them are without the graphics. The text is OK. The graphics have disappeared. How do I import a project so the titles are complete and don't have to be rebuilt? .

Can you please give your system specs?
In particular, how many physical HDD you have as well as memory. OS, CPU etc.
Also - what are the scratch disc settings in Premiere?
Finally - what is the video type - SD? HD?
Please give as many details as possible as it sounds like your system is going into overdrive.
