Ingesting Multiple Cards Simultaneously In Prelude

I've got a 4-card CF card reader to help with downloading footage in the field from a C300 and a 1DC. Is it possible to ingest multiple cards simultaneously within Prelude? And, if not, is there any downside to just copying the files over in Finder just to speed things up a bit. Mostly concerned about what happens if I'm in BFE, doing my own DIT and I spent the day shooting at 4K.
Thanks!

Thanks for the post.
Yes, Prelude will support multiple ingests simultaneously. You do need to invoke the Ingest Dialog for each operation though (for each card transfer you need to kick off - we don't yet have a shortcut for this workflow built in but are looking into it).
Let me know if that doesn't meet your needs.
Thanks!

How to import from multiple Cards simultaneously

I would like to know how to ingest multiple cards simultaneously using lightroom. Thank you!

Here is a trick to do it: http://www.petapixel.com/2012/06/09/importing-multiple-memory-cards-into-lightroom-at-the- same-time/
Pretty cool and easy to do.

Ingesting Multiple P2 Clips

I have been trying to ingest multiple P2 Clips in Prelude CS6. After importing the P2 footage from the camera (HPX 170) using P2CMS, I open Prelude and find the folder on the hard drive.
When selecting the footage folder, I can only select on file at a time. Each clip has to be selected and transcoded, instead of selecting multiple clips. If I select the folder that contains the footage, I only see File Directories, not the footage.
This is quite a hindrance at the end of a day having to find the file, select the clip, and click ingest.
I am trying the ingest process with Prelude, as importing directly into Premiere Pro is a different multiple step problem with each clip.
Any ideas?

Thanks for the reply.
I tried the workflow that you linked to above. Thanks for the information.
Unfortunately, this is creating an alias to footage and definitely not how I would like to work. If the project and footage get separated, it would be useless. While I can see the advantage to getting the file organized as he has referenced, you would need to add more steps to correct that major issue.
I have read posts on other forums, including the entry directly above your link, to Log and Transfer in FCP, and then pull the footage into Premiere. I'm still lost on the information listed on Adobe's site that you can use P2 Footage natively. It does open the footage directly on the timeline, as my videos demonstrated. I hope that's not a workflow that is expected with P2 Footage.
P2CMS works well for getting the footage in, and is recommended for use by Panasonic. Obviously. It has been flawless with our workflow and past projects. When shooting for an entire day or doing "run and gun" on location or travelling, I don't have time to go through multiple steps ingesting footage. Most of the time, I'm alone and start ingesting on my laptop while I continue to shoot. I'll have to consider these steps and whether there is a smoother workflow for Premiere CS6.
I have tried this for the past 5 months on projects, and made it work. Unfortunately, the footage is now backing up.
Thanks for your time. If you can think of a better workflow, or there is an update that corrects this, please let me know.

File Renaming from Multiple Cards

I’m attempting to use prelude to transfer and rename files from multiple cards to the same folder using the custom text and auto increment options. When I try transfer the media from card 2 to the same folder as card 1 using the same renaming protocol the auto increment starts back at 001 instead of picking up where the numbering left off from the last card. Therefore creating duplicate file names. Does the media from all my cards have to be transferred from the same location and ingested at the same time before I can make this work? All the tutorials have all the media coming from only one card in a “DSLR” workflow. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Hi -
Thank you for your post. In the current version of Prelude it does not provide the "next in sequence" number as an option. We are implementing that feature now for an upcoming release. The new feature should provide you with the following capabilities:
1. Prelude will provide a new option in the RENAME settings area: "USER DEFINED AUTO INCREMENT". An EDIT field will be available when you select this option and Prelude will automatically populate it with the "NEXT" sequential value based on the last ingest operation performed.
2. You can also override the auto-populated value if you choose and set any starting value you wish.
Hope this will meet your workflow needs. If you'd like to see something else please let us know.
Regards,
Michael

A frame failed to render while using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously

Hello fellow AE users:
I've read other threads which deal with this issue, however they don't seem to be exactly what I'm experiencing so I'm starting a new thread. I did do several hours of due diligence by research others' handling of this issue, so I'm not just blindly reposting this question without having done some legwork.
I'm getting this message when rendering one of my compositions:
"After Effects warning: A frame failed to render while using Render Multiple Frames Simultaneously. Allocating more memory to the background processes in Memory & Multiprocessing Preferences may fix this problem. (26 :: 142)"
First, some background on what led up to this. I've built an entirely new system from scratch based on the new Intel 5960X 8-Core processor, with 64GB of RAM on an Asus X99-Deluxe Mobo.Brand new install of Windows 8.1, and brand new install of After Effects CC (latest versions as of this posting) and all of my plug-ins (mostly Red Giant, also all updated to current versions.) I have a new video card in this system (Gigabyte GTX 980 G1 Gaming) however this issue also happened with my old 4GB GTX 680 as well, which was in the original i7-950 system (see below.)
I've set up Multiprocessing preferences for 6GB reserved for system, 8 CPUs reserved for other applications which leaves "Actual CPUs that will be used: 8", with each CPU having a 6GB RAM allocation. That's 8x6=46G, leaving 18GB free for the operating system, which should be more than enough.
One could speculate that there is some plug-in that is using too much memory, or something weird with QuickTime or H.264 decoding (the source is one Canon 5D mk II H.264 .mov and one jpeg file). However, this issue did *NOT* happen on my old system, which was 4-core Intel i7-950, 24GB RAM, running the same version of After Effects CC and my plug-ins, and with only 3GB/Thread of ram allocated instead of the 6GB/Thread i'm using here.
I've simply loaded the old project on the new install and attempted to render. I have not changed any settings. I DID do the thing where you hold CTRL-SHIFT-ALT (or something like that) to reset all of the preferences when loading AE just in case that was the issue.
So, why would this be able to render using multiple processes on my old box with only 3GB/thread, while it will NOT render on this new system with double that, 6GB/thread allocated?
Please let me know if there is any other information I can provide that would be helpful to debug this.
Many thanks in advance for your help!

Thank you very much for the quick reply, Todd. I'll give that a shot. There also seems to be a problem with the Red Giant Cosmo plug-in. I get Cosmo engine initialization failures, but it's intermittent.

How can I rename multiple files simultaneously

I'm new to Macs and I'm looking for a way to rename multiple files simultaneously. These are photos from my SD card that I wish to give the same name but increment the name by 1 at the end of the filename.

A Better Finder Rename is perfect for this. I use it all the time to rename image files.
There is also a companion app called A Better Finder Attributes that is also useful for image files.

Not able to access Mozilla with the generic account (NIS account) by multiple users simultaneously

• Using a single Generic account multiple users are trying to login from different machines simultaneously to Mozilla Firefox. • The Mozilla Firefox is fully operational only for the first user who has initially opened Firefox session. • If the second user trying to access the Firefox with the same account, it is displayed as there is another session is already running and most of the Firefox options are getting grayed out i.e the navigation, history and forward/ backward tabs available in the menus become inaccessible.Our Requirement is that multiple users need to access multiple sessions simultaneously with all the features of Firefox available. Kindly assist me here.

Same problem, Pls help me

Start multiple domains simultaneously on 1 Weblogic server installation?

Is it okay to start and run multiple domains simultaneously. Better yet, when having multiple domains on 1 WLS server, should each domain have a different port number in order to be run simultaneously?
Here's my scenario - I installed Oracle Business Intellgence, which by default installs and configures WLS server for certain Business Intelligence applications (BI Publisher). This instance was running fine and good and still is.
Then I had another application, Oracle Data Integrator, which has a Console piece that requires a domain on WLS. So instead of modifying the existing domain for Oracle Business Intelligence, I created a new domain via the Configuration Wizard and selected those components for Oracle Data Integrator.
therefore current domains:
...\domains\bifoundation_domain --> installed automatically as part of Oracle Business Intelligence
...\domains\odi11g --> I created this domain after I
Now I have 2 domains under 1 WLS Server (windows 7 64bit), but if I startWeblogic.cmd for the bifoundation_domain, and I startWeblogic.cmd for the odi11g...then only the components for the bifoundation_domain become available via the WLS Console.
Questions:
- Can I run both domains simultaneously?
- Should I have modified the bifoundation_domain to include Oracle Data Integrator component; therefore only having 1 domain but having everything run under that domain?
- Does the Port for each domain matter? both bifounddation_domain and odi11g domain use ports 7001
Are there any other considerations? Thanks much.

Hi,
It is perfectly OK to run multiple domains on a single Weblogic server installation. Only constraint would be you have enough capacity available on your server to start multiple instances.
Things to note is, if your domain1 is running on listen address : port { localhost : 7001 } then your other domain should be configured on a different port say {localhost : 8001 }. If you want both domain to run on same port then go for virtual IP's to be plumbed on your physical network interface and configure as,
domain1 - { ip1 : 7001 }
domain2 - { ip2 : 7001 }
this way you will can access both domain admin console on same port.
Remember, Weblogic resources cannot be shared between domain, however a single nodemanager will be enough to monitor both the domains.
* rank it if answer is helpful :) *
Thanks,
Ranjan

How do I send mail to multiple groups simultaneously in Mavericks?

Recently updated to Mavericks, and I used to be able to just add a contact group to the BCC field. I can still add a contact group to the BCC field, as I have searched up till this point, but my issue is adding multiple groups into these fields. I thought a solution might be to make one huge group, but I use different groups for different things constantly, and combine and alter them continuously.
How on earth is it that I can no longer email multiple groups simultaneously? There has to be something I'm missing!!

I did this and the recipient gets an email From: Me and To: Me.
If you are sending email to multiple recipients by bcc, the recipients should not be able to see the other recipients you are sending the mail to. However, they will see who the email is from which is you!
What is confusing me is how are your recipients getting your email if it's not addressed to them but to yourself?
Have you tried rebuilding Mail?
Which version of OS & Mail are you using? Asking because your system profile is showing you are using Snow Leopard yet, you posted in the ML forum.

Adobe Acrobat pro 9.4.6 crashes when opening multiple files simultaneously.

We have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 which has been updated to version 9.4.6. we had this problem when the 9.4.5 update was applied also. It is now crashing when we try to open multiple files simultaneously.
Yesterday, I narrowed down the problem to 6 plugins:
IA32
ADBC
eBook
EScript
HLS
PPKLite
SaveAsRTS
However, we discovered that that Comments and markup tool bars weren't loading. So I did a repair install on it.
Now those plugins from yesterday work and Acroform.api is causing it to crash when opening multiple files.
I did try other suggestion that involved using Icacls/cacls on dll files to no avail.
It is running on XP SP3 fully updated with plenty of RAM and HDD space.
Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling?

I am not sure what's causing this problem on your machine because everything's working fine for me.
What is the version of Acroform.api on your machine now.
Do a Repair after deleting this file and see if it works.
Enable Windows MSI logging (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314852) before you do a repair, upload that log to some file sharing server, and paste its link here.

Is it possible to copy the same database multiple times simultaneously?

This is the setup of my environment.
I have a 'master' database that contains the full schema plus some pre-populated data such as default settings. When database schema changes are made, they get made to the master database. When a new customer signs up for the service, I make a copy of this
master database (using SMO) that will now be the database containing all of the customer's information. The database is rather large, and the copy operation can take a couple minutes.
Everything works fine as expected, unless I try to provision two new customers at the same time. It appears that Azure only allows for one DB copy operation at a time. Is there a way to allow for copying the same database multiple times simultaneously?
Thanks for you input. I understand that this is likely not the optimal setup, and that there is many better ways of doing this, but I am somewhat heavily invested in the current process and I would like to find out how to make it work if I can.

BTW, you can do this programatically by using PowerShell (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee210569.aspx), SqlPackage (http://www.benday.com/2012/12/18/deploy-a-sql-server-database-projects-dacpac-with-sqlpackage-exe/)
or the SQL Server binaries for .NET (http://www.vijayt.com/Post/Deploying-a-data-tier-application-in-SQL-Azure-programatically)
Hope this helps.

How to apply Time Remap to multiple clips simultaneously

Quite often after trimming many different clips for a wedding video I will then want the majority of them slowed down to a 50% speed. I know how to apply the Time Remap Speed % change in the Motion Tab, but have yet to figure out how to make the change to multiple clips simultaneously.
Thanks for your help!

You can apply a speed change from one clip to multiple clips by copying the first one, then pasting attributes (option + V, then select speed from the list) onto as many clips as you have selected.
Just be aware that this will ripple your timeline by extending all of your clips. FCP keeps the original out point of the source clip, not the out point of each cut on the T/L.

Trimming multiple transitions simultaneously.

Didn't we use to be able to trim multiple transitions simultaneously? For instance, having a cross dissolve on a clip on video track 1 as well as on audio track 1. Selecting both clips and dragging to trim the transition which adjusts both video and audio together. Also if there was video on tracks 1-3 and you wanted to trim all the transitions the same.
Now it seems that you have to click and drag each individually. I always hated that final cut operated like that and now premiere?

Logical would be if more than one item is selected then the all are manipulated. Also efficient.
A video dissolve doesn't infer an audio cross mix. It's very common at the end of a segment to fade to black. Fading the audio at this time is also a good choice. If you added a default 1 second dissolve to the video and also to the linked audio and then decided to increase the transition duration of both at the same time you can't. Move one then the other. Inefficient.
Perhaps a better example would be when you have two mono channels linked and add a cross fade transition to both. You're likely want to adjust them the same. Moving one the. Having to move the another to match is very wrong.
I've never noticed it being an issue before which is why I believe there has been a change. I'm hoping someone will have a solution.

Can I search for multiple images simultaneously in Aperture?

Can I search for multiple images simultaneously in Aperture? For example, search for 'Image2.jpg, Image3.jpg, Image5.jpg' by image name, out of different folders?

dusan -- your best procedure is likely to be to type the first file name (without extension) in the search field of the Photos View, and then mark that file either with a Flag or a color label. (You might clear all Flags prior.) If you have a lot of images or a slow computer (or both ) you may have to wait a few seconds. Aperture will show "Loading ... " on the left side of the tool strip while it churns through your images.
Then hit backspace twice, and type "60". Mark the file found.
Repeat with variations.
Then go to Flagged view, or filter the whole Photos view for the color-label you used.
