Is Direct Annotation on frames in real-time available in Premiere?

I received this in my email, wondered if Adobe has something comparable:
FASTER. EASIER. AND SLIGHTLY ADDICTING.
Email is so old school. With Ci, your production team and clients can comment and annotate directly on frames in real-time. You can then export these notes into Final Cut Pro or Avid and relink your master files. Experience better communication, improve your workflow, and avoid the typical frustrations associated with gathering feedback.

Adobe used to have an excellent review feature called CS Review that did exactly what you ask for. It was the best review system I've ever used.
Then Adobe dropped it.

Laptop with Nvidia gt750m. Sufficient for real time playback in Premiere CS6?

I'm on the verge of buying a new laptop with the following specs:
i7 4700MQ
16GB RAM @ 1600 mhz
1TB 7200 rpm drive
120 GB SSD
Nvidia GT750m GPU
15.6 inch IPS display
I'm sure these specs will be more than sufficient for editing and grading Full HD DSLR clips in Premiere CS6. The only bottleneck in this system might be the GPU, which isn't all that great and has only GDDR3 memory.
Now I'm not planning to do any gaming on it, so I'm just wondering if this graphics card will be sufficient for realtime playback in Premiere after applying the hardware accelerated effects.
This is done solely by the GPU right? This card should be supported for hardware acceleration, but will it be powerful enough?
Unfortunately, there is no other setup possible in this price range that has a better GPU and still has a IPS screen.
Anyone has any experience with this card and the Mercury playback engine?
Thanks!

Looks OK.

Real-Time Capture in Final Cut Express

Hi All -
I own a music venue, and we're considering adding video recording services (current we just offer audio). To reduce labor, I'm planning on a fixed mounted camera (brand/model TBD) from one of our lighting trusses (on the ceiling). We'd like to stream the video footage into a PowerMac and/or PowerBook in real time (presumably via a long firewire cable), thus avoiding the use of tapes, etc... So two questions:
1- Can Final Cut Express handle direct capture of video in Real Time? If so, are there any constraints, such as 7200 RPM harddrive, no HD, etc..., that I need to be aware of?
2- We plan to capture audio separately so that we can mix it in 16-track format in our ProTools HD studio. Will FCE work with a time code (SMTPE, etc...), or are there other prefer methods of keeping the sources in synch?
Any other thoughts from concert film masters would be appreciated! We're a small venue (150 person capacity) and will be using this mostly for student recitals and local bands - thus we need to be frugal and minimize the number of people needed to run it.
Thanks!

1. There are limitations to the length of FireWire cable data can be streamed. You might want to check up on this. FCE captures DV in realtime. You'll need a fast drive either in the computer or an external FW drive at least 7200rpm with 8MB cache.
2. No.

InDesign auto-size frame feature not working in real time in InCopy why?

We have just recently migrated from InCopy CS4 to CS6 to take advantage of the new features like the auto resize frame option, however it now seems that this feature is not working in real-time.
Basically the steps are needed to be complete before it auto-resizes the frame in InCopy, we use both layout and assignment based workflows:
1. From an ID document ('doc1'), exported a 'layer' to IC, certain frames are set to auto-size in height using the text frame options. So that editorial can review and make changes to text and the frame should resize according to the specifications set. IC stories are saved to a folder located in a content folder inside the top issue working folder.
2. Editorial opens the IC software, then opens the ID 'doc1'. Check’s out correct .icml file and makes edits to frame with auto resize.
3. Frame does not resize according to text frame set options and InCopy file does not respond in same fashion as InDesign.
4. Change only occurs when InCopy file is closed and updated in InDesign, which is frustrating as this feature would save huge amounts of time serving editorial requests.
Has anybody experienced this type of workflow problem? If anyone can provide mw with some pointers as to what can I do to get this to update in real time perhaps run a script? Update file in InCopy and refresh I will very much appreciate their assistance. I have run out of ideas.
Thanks!

We've had all sorts of problems with this feature as it should've worked straight out of the box but after some testing we have found that its something to do with the way you open the actual file in InCopy. Which is far from ideal and should have been UAT by Adobe before release.
This will not work consistently work if you open the designed .indd or .icma file in InCopy using the file open command within the application.
If you need this to work, the InCopy user has to open the .indd or .icma file by dragging and droping from OS windows explorer into InCopy, we use Windows 7 acrros all the teams. Check out .icml files add text changes to the set auto resized frames, this process will expand/collapse the frames to fit the content but as you have to use the drag and drop method to open the .indd and .icma file, 2 users cannot access the same time doc at the same time (a serious flaw in the programming architecture!) which stops people working in parallel. Save changes, check in .icml content and close .indd or .icma.
However the flaw comes in if you then open the .indd and .icma file in InCopy using the file open command within the application, before an InDesign user opens and saves the file (updates the design). The corrections added in the previous stage above, will not show the frames expanded/collapsed to take in the added text and instead show over matter???? The only way around this is to ask an InDesign user to open, update and save the design that way the InCopy user will see the same result no matter what file open method they use.
Another suggestion is to design the page to have some of the auto resize frames anchored within main body of text and that way the frames will expland/collapse when checking out and editing the content. However, this does cause issues with InDesign crashing etc. so we have tried to stop this method within the working group.
Have you experienced other more serious issues with InDesign crashing consistently when re-importing .icml files? See other forums here:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/671820?start=80&tstart=0
http://forums.adobe.com/message/5045608#5045608
As far as we can see this is a major flaw in how the application(s) work, we have an enterprise agreement with Adobe and purchase a large volume of Adobe products globally but so far the technical support team are unable to find a solution to this and I'm not hopeful of any resolution soon even with the new release of Adobe CC.

How do I go directly from one frame to another particular frame which is far away in the time line? (e.g the two frames are separated by 100 frames)

How do I go directly from one frame to another particular frame which is far away in the time line? (e.g the two frames are separated by 100 frames). I mean, is it possible to take the playhead from one frame to another frame directly which is 100 frames away in the time line? Thanks for any reply.

In the Timeline, go to the first frame and press M to put a marker on it. Go to the other frame you want to jump to and put a marker on that one too.
Now press Ctrl+Semicolon to go to the previous marker - or Ctrl+Comma to go to the next marker.

2 AIR applications directly communicating with each other in real time

Building a installation that requires 2 different kiosks to communicate with each other. I'd like to use Adobe AIR to create the individual applications.
My question is
Is it possible for 2 separate AIR applications to DIRECTLY communicate with each other in real time, without any server to act as mediator?
Ideally the only data that would be transferred would be json based.

Not sure whether this helps; http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/articles/creating_socket_server.html

Speedgrade 7.2.1-direct link-GPU-real time color updates?

Hello,
Adobe says that SpeedGrade 7.2.1 now takes advantage of the GPU when Direct Linking a sequence out of Premiere.
Questions:
1. Does this mean I should see color corrections update in real time in my scopes and monitors the same way I see real time color updates in a native ircp SpeedGrade project?
2. I have a Black Magic DeckLink 4K Extreme card. Can SpeedGrade use my 4K card, or handshake with Mercury Transmit, so that I can get either an HDMI or SDI video signal output to my monitor?
3. I notice that for Premiere, adobe officially certifies GTX 690 for windows, and GTX 680 for Mac. Does this mean GTX 690 is not supported for Mac?
4. I tried right clicking on the SpeedGrade app, opening packet contents, and adding gtx 690 into cuda approved card list. That didn't seem to help. I did not try to amend the Open CL card list document, would that help?
Here is my system config:
Mac Pro Tower Early 2009
2 x 2.66 6-core Intel Xeon
48GB RAM 1333 DDR3
Cards:
Mac system report says all three of these are GPUs, however, my tech guy says the 640 is for GUI.
1. NVIDIA GeForce GT 640 (slot 2)
2. NVIDIA GeForce GT 690 (PCI Lane width x16)
3. NVIDIA GeForce GT 690 (PCI Lane width x16)
Cuda driver 6.0.37
Media storage is a raided 9TB serial ATA, about 300mbs read and write. Hard drive is even faster.
Adobe if you are listening, I'm trying to add SpeedGrade to my tool belt, especially since you did such a good job integrating the Tangent Element. The whole point of using SpeedGrade, as opposed to Resolve, is that the Premiere sequence links. I have access to everything, except AE comps.

Alright folks...I'm so close.
So, recap, getting real time performance and color updates using Direct Link in my external scopes and monitor, now that I'm on a Z800, windows 7 64 bit, with Quadro 4000, Cuda driver 394, AJA LHi card and break out box.
However, some problems still:
1. My internal SpeedGrade scopes are just a group of funky dots that kinda resemble my external scopes, viewing the same signal. Computer monitor resolution is 1920x1080. Tried other display options, still funky dots. Not a biggy, since external scopes are fine, just curious as to what's up with that? Is it because I'm using the latest Cuda driver 394, instead of an older one, since 4000 is old?
2 Do I need a LUT for SpeedGrade to output an HDMI video and SDI video signal in Rec709 2.4 gamma? Is it the handshake with the AJA LHI? Looks like it's spitting out sRGB 2.2 right now. I imported bars that I made in Symphony. These bars play out fine in Symphony and Resolve, through the same signal path SDI to the same monitor. However, in SpeedGrade whites are lower than a 100 and blacks are lifted. Since the bars in the external monitor look very similar to computer monitor, I'm assuming SpeedGrade is spitting out sRGB signal. Can't seem to insert the images I snapped, if they would help, I can email them.
3. Since there is no manual for SpeedGrade, I'm about to buy a 3rd party "class in a book" just so I can have some run down of what some of the settings and preferences options actually mean. Like what's "shaders?" Or why does it seem like framerate can be set in three different preference tabs? Would be nice if there was just a document with a run down of settings and preferences for both Premiere and SpeedGrade. Especially since I already have great turorials for the actual operaton of SpeedGrade like Patrick Inhofer's.
Thanks in advance. Wait....do you hear that....Adobe...is that you????

Directing fsck output to syslog and screen in real-time

Hello,
I have the following under Debian 6. The procedure should check and automatically repair the file system and write the result to the user's screen and also to syslog.
#!/bin/bash
output=`fsck -y /dev/disk/by-label/oracle-xe; retval=$?`
logger -is "$output"The procedure seems to work, but I don't see the output until the fsck command has completed. Is there a possibility to write the output to syslog while presenting the fsck output in real-time?
Kind regards.
Edited by: Dude on Jan 30, 2012 6:44 PM

I make some progress:
outfile=/tmp/`date +%N`
retfile=/tmp/`date +%N`
(fsck -y /dev/disk/by-label/oracle-xee; echo $? > $retfile) | tee $outfile
logger -i < $outfile
retval=`cat $retfile`
rm $outfile
rm $retfileThe above gives me the results I was looking for
I also tried
logger -is "`fsck -y /dev/disk/by-label/oracle-xee`"But it the syslog output in this case is just one long line of text without any newlines
If there is a better way, please let me know.

Adobe Director 11.5 - Real-Time Audio Manipulation?

Hi all,
Firstly, I'm enrolled in a Multimedia Design course in College, and our College is using Director 11.5, hence why I need advice specifically on the older version, not the current one.
Our assignment for one of the courses is to author an interactive visual dictionary - using Director 11.5 - on a topic of our choice. In my group's case, it was the workings of a soundboard.
In an attempt to really increase the level of interactivity and make a superb addition to future portfolios - as well as showing off - we want to include an interactive 'soundboard simulation' which users can play with. There will be three separate audio inputs that play continuously, and 5 dials to increase or decrease certain effects. Those dials/effects are:
EQ - Hi (High Pass Filter)
EQ - Lo (Low Pass Filter)
FX - (Reverb or Echo)
Pan - (Left to Right)
Level - (Volume)
The idea is that as the user adjusts the dials, the audio is effected in real-time with a multitude of possible effects being applied. Is this remotely possible with Director? As far as coding in Director, I'm still a relative novice, but I have a good head for code and a lot of the principles are the same as in Javascript (which I'm also learning and I must say, pretty good at), it's just the syntax itself which may prove troublesome to wrap my head around at times.
But for now I'm just asking if this is even possible. At our current level of Director proficiency, we're sort of shooting for the moon, but I don't see anything wrong with that!
The only page I've found listing various audio filters and parameters in Director is this: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Director/11.5/UsingScripting/WSCB4744EA-6E6E-4b85-A946-E2C6E3A 4450D.html
However, I'm not certain that those can effect audio real-time (even just an 'onMouseUp' effect would be fine, but we'd much prefer it be truly real-time).
Any advice, hints, tips, tricks, or directions would be very much appreciated!

Hello Peregrine.2976,
Here is a link to a .dir file that adjusts volume in real time
by setting a variable and calculating volume in play frame as user
slides volume button. Can show more about sound control if needed.

How can i slide a sound track one frame at a time in Pre 10

i do a lot of music videos where i record audio separtly from the video and then sync them and i have a lot of trouble getting them in sync, does anyone have any good tricks to do this? also, can i move said sound track one frame at a time in either direction to help get these tracks to sync up?
Thanks

If you zoom to the max, and watch that little TimeCode box (it pops up, when you begin dragging), just look at the last two digits, as those are the Frames. Even with my clumsy hands and fingers, I can nail the displacement to Frame-accurate standards.
Now, some other NLE's go a step further, in that when the Clip is Selected, one can nudge it along, with modifier keys and the Left-Right Cursor keys. I do not think that has been added to PrE 10, but would be a great Feature Request.
Good luck,
Hunt
[Edit] Well shut my mouth! After you Select the Clip (unlinking with Alt+click, if muxed), just hold down the Alt key, while hitting the Left-Rigt Cursor keys!!!! Forget that Feature Request.

How to count occurences of a certain string in incoming real-time data? Also displaying RTC data. Current VI included

I use LabView student Express 7 on a Windows XP system.
Time-frame: we are doing final integrations for our balloon experiment today. We just got told that the press wants to view real-time data, which we haven't programmed for. I need help to get a working VI at the latest by 25.02.2004 before 0800(morning) (GMT+1).
Note on license
It is a student balloon flight, and the data will not be used in scientific work, so the I am not breaking any license agreements (I hope).
Problem synopsis:
The balloon continually transmits data at 9600baud. The data is a semi-repeating header followed by a constant lenght data-package arranged like this:
BEXUS[h][m][s]BEXUS[h][m][s]
[Raw binary data, 7channels*8sub-channels*8bits]
What the groundstation is doing right now:
Take all incomming data and save (append) the data to a file without any data-handling. (We figured we would go post-processing).
What I need to change in less than 24 hours:
- Add a "package" counter
- Add a display of the clock data (RTC)
How I planned to implement the changes:
-RTC display:
The RTC data is in BCD format, since that means that if you look at the data as hex numbers, you get the hours and minutes and seconds out in "clear text". That is 12 hours is 0x12hex. I figured that I can do a match pattern BEXUS and pass the "after substring" to another match pattern BEXUS from which I feed the "before substring" to a type-cast VI (casting string to u8) and displaying that, which should give me a display of "123000" for the time 12:30:00... I couldn't get it to work at all when I tried out the supplied "beta" vi.
- Package counter:
Counting how many BEXUS that gets detected and dividing by 2. I don't know how to do this. I've looked on the forum (a good thread on the problem: "how do I count the number of *'s in a string") but these use either loops or arrays... and I'm not sure how this works when I'm getting the data in at realtime. I cant make an array and then count it, since then the array would grow fast and possibly interfere with saving of the data??? Saving the data is critical.. without that file we cant do post-processing.
Since my time is so limited (I'm not even supposed to do the groundstation software but they called on me in the last minute because no-one else had time/wanted too/could do it) I hope that you could make an exception and provide me with working VI's (based on the one I have attached) so that I can show something to the press! (Free comercial for NI!! Since the student version shows the National Instruments water-mark on all VI's!!! Possible TV time!!)
Thanks!
PS: even if you are to late (after 25) post anyway!
Why:
-I can learn from it
-the launch might be delayed due to weather conditions
-others might find it amusing!
Thanks again!

BexusII_groundstation.vi ‏46 KB

I have a valid example data file attached to this thread.
If you open BEXTEST.bin in a hex-editor of your choice, you'll see the BEXUS as 42 45 58 55 53 and then the time as 00 28 09 etc.
I couldn't get Joe Guo's VI to work. It doesn't count packages correctly, and the time is not displayed correctly either.
The file was saved using a straight save to file VI.
The data is from actual launching area tests performed a few mintues ago. The time displayed is "On time" e.g. how long the gondola has been powered up.
I have a spare T-junction, so I can hook into the balloon real-time data as we fly, in case anyone care to see if they can figure out why the latest version of Joe Guo's program is not displaying correctly.
I will monitor this
thread during and after flight to see if anyone can make it in time!
Thanks for the great effort!!

CRIO and ni 9234 modules not working or communicating through fpga with accelerometers, fpga connected to real time application which is also connected to shared variables linked to modbus slave

Hi,
I have a compact rio which has a 4 way chassis attached to that chassis is three ni9234 modules they are linked using fpga to a real time application then using shared variables in the low speed loop that are linked to a modbus slave to communicate with dcs, the ni 9234's have accelerometers connected to them with iepe ac coupled option on the c modules, my problem is the real time application seems to be running okay even when power loss occurs it restarts with no problem and the fpga writes to the portable hard drive bin files fine but without a accelerometer connected I get low noise readings as soon as I connect a accelerometer to any one of the 10 outputs it just goes to a fixed number (0.03125) as soon as disconnect it again it reverts back to reading noise, I have run a scan on the modules and only get a spike when I connect or disconnect the accelerometer, I have tested the voltage at the pins of the module and I get 22 volts dc which makes it more likely that the hardware is not the problem but a software is maybe causing this to hang-up, I attach project and files for your perusal. I also carried out a new project which in scan mode directly linked the module input to shared variable and the same scenerio again. Help would be much appretiated.
Many thanks

Whren using waveform acquisition with the 9234s we recommend the following FPGA and RT template.
http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/209114
it can be extended as a data logger with:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/6388
or using shared variables combined with scan engine
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/9851
The FPGA in all of these, as well as the RT framework have been used successfully by 1000s of users. I would recommend giving these a try.

How to install the NI-DAQmx driver on a real time target PC?

Hi, I’m painful about how I can install a PCI-6363 DAQmx on my real time desktop PC target. The PCI-6363 is directly connected to the real time PC. And I’m using LabVIEW 2011 and MAX 5.0.
The DAQmx device driver can be seen in software lIst in the host PC, but it can not be found in the install wizard. Is there something wrong with my host PC? or is that wrong to connect PCI-6363 with real time desktop PC?
I would be grateful for any advice that I could get here.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Zhleo,
If you are about to use the PCI-6363 with the Real-Time Desktop you are right you need to have it installed, and then you need to deploy DAQmx driver software to the real-time target.
To do that you access your real-time desktop under Remote Systems in MAX and start the Real-Time Software Wizard. There you should see DAQmx listed.
In case you do not have DAQmx listed there, see this KB: Deploying DAQmx to a Real-Time Controller or PC?

Saving one frame at a time?

Cheers!
I am using Low-level Grab Raw Data.vi example from NI-IMAQ. I want to save one frame at a time and then set the file position to end (and maybe add some mark that I recognize where the next frame begins). I know that it copies the raw data of the specified frame into Image Data Array. But does it write (in this example) data of one frame to disk and then set file position to end? If not, how to modify it?
How does changing number of buffer affect? I mean if I increase it >1 does it affect to number of frames to write per one iteration time of while loop?
I have Pixelink PL-B741F-BL camera. http://www.pixelink.com/products_info.asp?productcode=PL-B741F-BL&f-category=CMOS%20Imaging%20Module...
Kudos for good help!

LH,
You may (you can see Groups in the Layers palette with the layer expanded):
1) Ctrl/Cmd+A to select everything and Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+G to Ungroup ;
2) ShiftClick the circle to deselect it; if it is still a Group (all of its own), Ungroup again;
3) With the Centre Reference Point ticked in the Transform palette multiply the W or H value by 1.1 (just add *1.1 in the box) and Ctrl/CmdEnter to keep proportions (this is to make sure that they are long enough);
4) Ctrl/Cmd+A to select everything again and Pathfinder>Divide (this will make pie pieces);
5) Drag over the centre with the Direct Selection Tool and press Delete (this will rid you of the inner parts of the pie pieces so you just have the outer rim in pieces).
This should give you the 30 independent curved lines forming the circle, two of them with an extra (original) Anchor Point.

Is Direct Annotation on frames in real-time available in Premiere?
