In multitrack view, What's the fastest way of moving a clip back by an exact number of milliseconds?

I want to move a clip back in time by an exact number of milliseconds (Say 30 ms), to the nearest sample.
Moving back by a known number of samples would be fine too.
What I'd like to do would be just click on the Clip Start Time (as you can the Clip Gain) and change it.... but this doesn't seem to be possible.
What's the next best thing?
I've considered putting a negative delay on the track, but that's a pain....
Thanks!

Provided you are zoomed in enough position the cursor at the spot where you want the clip to start (adda marker if you wish) and left click on the clip and slide to the cursor/marker. Provided Snap to Markers is activated it should end up exactly where you want.
Or you can Nudge the clip left and right by using Alt +, or Alt +. keyboard shortcuts.
Or you can Ripple Delete/Time in Selected Track from the edit menu after selecting the appropriate number of milliseconds using the Time Selection Tool on the track before the clip starts.

What's the fastest way to create a clipping path?

In CS3 & 4 I've created a bazillion clipping paths via pen tool and mouse. I've also tried using the various selection tools to create selections, then turning those selections into paths and modifying the path. I've roughed in paths then zoomed way up to fine tune them.
Is there any plug-in or other slick method to create clipping paths real quickly? Maybe a Wacom pen would work quicker than a mouse? I haven't tried that. I've tried everything else I can think of.
I happened to notice there are online services that charge like $2.00 to create a clipping path for you. So that either has to be from slave labor or someone has figured out a real fast way to do it.
I'm sorry to repeat a question if it's been answered before. I searched for clipping paths in the Photoshop forum and Adobe returned 0 results.

A Wacom tablet is a must. If you are doing lots of clipping paths, avoid carpel-tunnel, and get the work done easier and faster using the Wacom. I've tried all the sizes and I use a 4x5 because it's all the real estate you need, even on 30" monitors. Other than that, there is no software that thinks like a human can in making discretionary choices. Just get the Wacom and roll. You'll have that pen tool motating at full throttle and even make the labor enjoyable.
Be sure to take your customary 20 minute ergonomic breaks to let your eyes focus and +20 feet away.
Best,

What is the fastest way of getting data?

With a scanning electron microscope, I need to scan a 512*512 pixel area with a pixel repetition of 15000 (two channels), meaning averaging over 15000 measurements. Simultaneously I have to adjust the voltage output for every pixel.
I am using a 6111E Multifunction I/O board in a 800MHz P3. The whole task has do be done as fast as possible (not more than 20 minutes altogether).
What is the fastest way to get this huge amount of data with averaging and output in between? (E.g. do I use buffered read with hardware triggering or is there a faster way?)

Using the NI-DAQ API (not LabView) will give you a significant amount of more control over what happens and when to the data stream; which translates to a more efficient program. But you need to program in C/C++ or Delphi then. The Measurement Studio provides ActiveX controls that are like the LabView ones for C&C++ (they�re slow like the LabView ones though � not a lot you can do about the Windows GDI).
What are you trying to sample 15000 times? The 512*512 pixel field?
That�s almost 15Gigs of data! And it means you need to process data at 12.8MB/s to finish it in 20 minutes. I hope you know C, x86 assembly and MMX.
I would setup a huge circular buffer (NI-DAQ calls them �double buffers�), about 30 seconds worth or so, to use with SCAN_Start. Then I would proces
s the actual buffer the card is DMA�ing the data into with a high priority thread. Progressively sum the scan values from the 16bit buffer (the samples are only 12 bit, but the buffer should still be 16bits wide) into a secondary buffer of DWORDs the size of the screen (512*512), and you�ll need two of those, one for each channel. Once the 15000 scans are complete, convert each entry into a float divide by 15000.0f, and store it in a third buffer of floats.
If you wish to contract this out, send me an email at [email protected]

Sq01 what is the fastest way,

hi all,
what is the fastest way to detect coding that update to eban from sq01?
as i am facing problem with more than 100,000 PRs updated mysteriously (customer tab data ) without any history changes .
i suspected it might be from query and i need to find the root cause of problem immediately
pls advice

Hi Ester,
Haven't got clearly what you written.
You mean to say, there is modifications done to query for updation?
if it is a standard code then I don't think it is used for modification.

What's the fastest way to share files live between 2 Macs in the same room?

Please can I have some advice on this scenario?
I'll need to share HD video footage between 2 new Mac Pros in the same room. 1 Mac will be used to upload the footage and the other to edit it using FCP. The footage can be stored either on hard drives in the edit machine or on desktop hard drives connected to the edit machine (or if there is a better option I'm open to advice).
What is the fastest way of sharing the files and what is the simplest way?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

What is the fastest way of sharing the files and what is the simplest way?
Fastest way? a fiber channel SAN connecting the two machines to a common fiber-channel based storage array. Can't beat it for performance, but it comes at a cost (think $20K as a starting point, depending on the amount of storage you need).
Simplest way? Some external media (thumb drive, external hard drive, etc.) that you shuffle between the two machines
Intermediate: a NAS-based storage box on your network, although be aware that real-time editing of HD video can overwhelm many low-end NAS boxes.

What is the fastest way to transfer files and applications from an older iMac to a new MacBook Pro?
I have a Firewire cable and Thunderbolt adapter, but no icons showing either Mac appear on either desktop.

The fastest way is to use Carbon Copy Cloner and a external drive formatted GUID OS X Ext. J in Disk Utlilty, then connecting to the new Mac and using Migration Assistant in the Utilites folder.
Even faster, if you can determine your going to replace all the apps from fresh sources anyway (like if the older Mac's OS X verison is old thus the apps) then just use a external drive and copy just your files to it, then connect to the new Mac and transfer over.
Some apps you can just grab the registration code and install it fresh on the new machine with the old code, talk to the developer about transfering the program, as long as it's deleted on the older Mac in the process.
It used to be Firewire Target disk mode was fastest, but since Thunderbolt came out...
Notice this support doc hasn't been updated since june 2012, no Thunderbolt info

What's the fastest way to kill the battery...

hello friends. i was wondering what's the fastest way to drain my macbook pro battery so i can calibrate it? i want to kill the battery not the laptop if you know what i mean. thanks.

Turn on wifi + bluetooth and turn the brightness all the way up, and if its a new mbp, turn off the automatic video card switching in energy saver. Then just play youtube videos / movies / games (anything that uses the vid card as much as possible helps) till it goes flat.

What's the fastest way to change IP addresses in a Project?

Hi folks,
I'm using a cFP2100 controller with LabVIEW 8.2.1. I made a project using a configuration I created in MAX. Now I've moved the whole bank of modules to a new location, and the controller now has a new IP address via DHCP. My question is, what's the fastest way to update the IP address for my project? Do I have to make a brand new project with a new .iak file that has the new IP address? I'm thinking there's got to be an easier way.
Thanks!
Eric

Hi Eric,
Since you are getting your IP address from a DHCP server, the IP address of your Fieldpoint device is ultimately dependant on the server. If your IP address changes, you have two choices. You can right click your target and go to properties. In the properties under the general category, you can change the IP address of the target. The second option is to import a new IAK file into your project by right clicking the Project Name and going to import>>iak file.
I hope this helps,
Regards,

The first time I attempted to install ML was on a late 2011 MBP. It ran for three minutes then gave me the error message: Could not install OSX due to an unexpected error. I was using the original ML install app, not a USB or other drive.
After a couple of restarts wiht the same result I saw a message to the effect that the install was trying to close open apps. I closed apps manually a few times to no avail. I shut down instead of restarting then booted into Safe mode (hold down the shift key when starting) and that did it. The install went smoothly after that.
I since installed ML in two iMacs using a cloned copy of the install app on a USB drive. This time I shut down the computers and booted into Safe Mode first and there were no problems.
I don't know if this issue is the one causing you these problems but it is a simple enough solution to try.

If you are unable to get the iPod into Disk Mode to try and restore it, it's a very good indication, as mentioned in the article, that the iPod's hard drive is damaged and in need of replacement either by Apple or a third party repair company.

What is the best way to resize a clip

What is the best way to resize a clip? I have some clips in 1280x720p and a B camera shot of the same person that was shot at 1440x1080p and I want to multi-edit them so they need to be the same size. Is there a way inside FCP to re-interpret the 1440x1080 to 1280x720 or do I have to Export them as smaller clips and re-import them? Just have a lot of clips so would be good to find a internal FCP way of doing it.

Well Zeb, again with the insults. If you had just stated simply "What codec" are you using that would have been fine. But instead you decided to insult me and assume I knew nothing.
FYI I started working with video in 1985 and was one of the first to use Digital Video in 1991 as a Software Developer. So I can assure you I know a lot about codecs and NLE having even written one once. One of the things I learned in IT was to always ask for the best route through a problem from the experts around you before wasting valuable time and money finding your own, and usually the dead-ends at that!
So there you go, next time I'll mention the codec and next time if you could be more polite then things will progress more smothely on here
