Is it possible to set frame size for a new project ?

Hi all,
i would like to create a video in which there will be 2 videos playing the same content from a different angle.
Each video is 512 x 384 .
So i would like to set the frame size of the project as 1024 x 768 in order both videos to exist.
I searched around for tutorials regarding this but i didn't find anything similar.It seems as if i cannot set the frame size of the project from the start.
So,is there a way to do this?
Thank you for your time reading this.
Regards,
nikits72.

Hi and thank you for your answers.
@->shoternz
It will be displayed in my monitor and probably on you tube.Btw your remark on size was very accurate.Didn't think of that.
Although i could use a little bigger height to use it to display a logo or something....
I am very premiere newbie as you can understand.

Advice on sequence settings - frame size for VHS video in FCP

Hello,
I was hoping that I could get some advice on editing and output for video captured from VHS Tapes to ensure the best quality possible.
My current workflow to digitize the VHS tapes is:
VHS signal from JVC S7600u with TBC into ADVC 300 (no de-interlace or other filters set) into a Mac Pro via firewire. Capture preset in FCP is DV NTSC 48khz.
Once in FCP - the captured VHS video frame size is 720 X 480, Vid rate is 29.97, pixel aspect is NTSC-CCIR 601 and field dominance is lower (even)
My questions are:
If my final destination is for You Tube sharing , are these the best sequence/ frame size settings or should I convert the sequence frame size to 640 X 480, or should I leave at 720 X 480 while working in FCP and then output to Compressor and select the H264 you tube sharing video setting and change the frame size to 640 X 480?
Should I de- interlace for internet/youtube destination?
Should I de-interlace for DVD/TV destination?
If I want to burn the finished project to DVD and watch the video on a progressive montitor/ TV screen, what would be the best settings/frame size for that?
If any of you out there have experience with editing vcr/analog video in FCP and have a good workflow to ensure best quality, I would really appreciate any advice/suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Digitize to 720X480 frame size in FCP. In compressor, your YouTube preset will automatically deinterlace and a square pixel aspect ratio.No deinterlacing for DVD.

How to set the size for height of iView tray?

Hi,
I have created a ABAP webdynpro component and integrated this comp with iView. Then i integrated iView into Page in portal. That is working fine.
But the size of tray/window which is displayed in the page is very small.
How to increase the height of that Tray/window/iView containing my component?

Hi,
By changing the maximum automatic height and Minimum automatic height property of the iview you can set the size for height of your iview.
to do this follow the setps:
goto content administrator -> portal content -> your folder where you created your iview or directly to your iview -> right click -> open -> object,
and now in property category choose appearance-Size from the drop down menu and set the above properties to your required height.
if you want the end user to modify this property set the property to read/write .

Set height size for each state enabling browser scrollbar if needed..

I'm working on a flex project, completely new to it. I'm trying to resize my application based on the set height size for each state. I'd like the wrapper to resize in the browser so that the browser's scroll bar appears if needed. hope this makes sense....
My enitial opening page I've set the height to 1000. now when I click on a link to another state from this page, we'll call it 'home' which i have set to 2000
The page opens in its 2000 height but no scroll bar appears to scroll down in the browser...
If anyone's done this or knows how to, I'd really appreciate your input.

I've done something similar with a few of my apps, you have to use a little javascript on the html page and the ExternalInterface class in your app. Basically, you need to resize the "browser's" height based on your flash file. So here's quick example:
In your html template page (which you can edit in your flashbuilder project panel ->html-template->indext.template.html)
in your html add the jscript function:
<script type="text/javascript">
function setWindowHeight(heightVal){
document.getElementById('theWindow').style.height=heightVal; // make sure to give the body tag an id of 'theWindow' or whatever
</script>
In your flashbuilder app you need to call the javascript fx, you can use the ExternalInterface class for this:
ExternalInterface.call('setWindowHeight',val+'px');
you need to send the jscript fx the height of your container or whatever you want it resized to....

Firefox can have multiple home pages if you wish. Each home page that will open when starting Firefox is separated by the "|" character.
See: http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
To have new tabs open a specific web site, add one of the following extensions:

I want to pass my iMAC along to my kids. System is 10.4.11 or 10.5.11. Have original Lion and Tiger OS discs. What do I need to do to set it up for a new user?

I want to pass my iMAC along to my kids. System is 10.4.11. Have original Lion and Tiger OS discs. What do I need to do to set it up for a new user?

I'm having to guess at which iMac you have. This forum covers three older variants of the iMac family that were made from 1998-2005 with three different processor types.
If yours has a G-series processor, it can run neither Lion 10.7 nor Snow Leopard 10.6. If the processor is a G5 or a G4 (must be faster than 867mHz( you can install Leopard 10.5. If your plan is to reinstall the OS before turing over the computer, let us know which iMac you have (doing "About this Mac" from the Apple menu will give the processor type--that will do for this purpose)
If "About this Mac" says you have an Intel processor, you have a much newer iMac. Let us know and I can ask the Hosts to move it to that separate forum.
If you wish to maintain control over the computer, you can go to System Preferences > Accounts and set up a new standard account. The user logged into that acct can pretty much use anything installing in that account but cannot install new software or modify the system. That means less chance of something bad getting on the computer but also means they wil be asking you to help install stuff as they won't have access.
If you wish to give the kids full control, set up a new account with admin priveleges, then either strip content form your account and leave it, or simply delete it once you are satisfied that the new accout is working.

Remaining questions while evaluating JavaFX for a new project

Dear forum members:
currently I am evaluating the possibilities of next-generation GUI technologies, such as JavaFX, Silverlight and Flash/Flex, for a new project. To get a basic understanding of JavaFX's concepts, I worked through the available online text and video tutorials, and all the treated topics seem quite obvious/comprehensible to me +as long as one is only confronted to relatively static GUI component hierarchies+. But, as a newbie, some questions concerning more dynamically defined GUIs (i.e. dynamic JFX scripting*) still remain.
Application scenario (exemplary):
Say I want to create a "Online Shopping Application" that supports "+ShopOwners+" in *dynamically* defining the "+Shop Model+" structure, e.g. accepted visitor (client) categories, product categories their products, pricing information, payment methods, etc.
Then, based on the dynamically defined model, the shop owner should be able to design and layout the necessary forms, such as order forms, survey/feedback forms, etc. This should be done in "design mode", and there should also exist a possibility for him/her to preview the specification results in a "preview mode".
Finally, the shop owner must be able to save the model and forms on the server side in a way that can requested and run be the shopping app end users (the shop clients) via (another (?)) JavaFX frontend.
_The still remaining questions for this scenario are:_
+1. Is JavaFX appropriate for creating such kind of applications, especially when it comes to dynamic JFX scripting (and compilation) on the client side??? (By now I'm not quite sure if this is really necessary for my plans!)+
+2. Concerning the ShopOwner's GUI with its design and preview mode (and knowing that the latter mode will be the GUI version presented to the shop clients in another JFX module):+
+Is it possible to *dynamically *build up a +Scene Graph+ in a way that lets me handle and *compile* the corresponding +JFX Script+ on the client side for previewing it? Or is a client-server roundtrip absolutely necessary?
How could one persist this JFX Script on the server side? I.e., which intermediary format would be the most appropriate? => XML, JSON, JFX Script?
3. Concerning the "Shop Model", would I optimally create JFX classes or even Java Beans to bind to?
4. And finally: What would be your recommended way (software architecture) to fulfill this task in JavaFX?
Do there already exist some JFX components (dynamic forms/survey authoring modules, etc.) that persue a similar task and that I didn't find yet?
As the clarification of the above-mentioned issues are very important for me, I hope that you more experienced users can help me, pointing me to a practicable approach.
Thank you very much for any help and constructive tips in advance.
Best regards
Martin Meyers

Q1: Do I optimally need 2 different custom components for each treated concept, or do I have just 1 component with 2 internal modes (design & preview/usage)??
E.g., (a) FormSpec widget composed of LabelSpec, TextBoxSpec, ChooseBoxSpec,... widgets each having their preview pendants
Form, Label, TextBox, ChooseBox, etc.
versus
+(b) only Form widget composed of Label, TextBox, ChooseBox widgets, but all having a "design/preview execution mode".+
Closer to (b), I think, though each widget doesn't need to be modified to have design and preview modes. Instead, each widget can be wrapped within a Group to provide the design/preview functions without modifying the widget itself.
The technique is as follows. Given a sequence of widgets (Nodes, really), for each widget, wrap it in a Group that contains that widget but with an overlay Rectangle in front of it. The Rectangle can be semi-transparent, or fully transparent if you prefer. (In the example below I've made it a semitransparent color to make its location obvious as well as to provide a highlight that signals design mode.) The overlay Rectangle is set up so that its dimensions will exactly track the dimensions (bounds) of the widget behind it. I've set blocksMouse to true so that when it's present, the overlay traps events and prevents interaction with the widget. There is a boolean variable previewMode, controlled by a CheckBox, that controls the visibility of these overlay rectangles. I've also added a bit of code to track mouse events on the overlay rectangles so that you can move the widgets around when you're in design mode.
Note that the visible variable differs from transparent, i.e. opacity == 0.0. If a node is visible but is transparent, it is still eligible to receive events; whereas if visible is false, it does not receive events.
Here's some code that illustrates this technique. I'll answer your other questions in a subsequent post.

Automating album creation for a new project?

I have several projects (such as specific event shoots) with the same basic set of albums for that project (some regular albums, some smart albums). I'll have albums for specific subsets of the events (for my sports shots, there's Individuals, Action, Team, etc.).
I'd like to automate the creation of these albums, as it gets a bit tedious having to create a bunch of albums manually for each new project I create. I looked at Aperture's automator actions, but couldn't find anything related to album creation. Is there such a thing?
Thanks...
David

I'm pretty sure this is scriptable using AppleScript. I haven't really had the need to script Aperture so I can't tell you the exact syntax without looking it up myself, but it shouldn't be too hard if you've ever used AppleScript. Just open Script Editor, go to File > Open Dictionary... > Aperture and you'll get a list of the scriptable actions Aperture has available.

Java vs. C# for a new project

Hi,
I know this has probably been done to death, but the world changes and the old arguments lose their validity so I'd be interested in people's thoughts:
I work for a largely C# shop, but due to a general dislike of .net and Microsoft from the developers there is the possibility of using something non-MS for a new project. Currently it is looking like the app will be a traditional client-server app. Java has been mentioned as a possible alternative, and being an old Java guy myself I'm excited about the possibility of using it again!
I have a meeting with the directors to discuss reasons why we'd want to use Java in place of C#. The directors have made a lot of cash out of MS platforms, but are open to change if I can convince them - I've come up with the following reasons:
1) Java is more widely adopted in 'serious' industry and the biggest websites e.g. ebay, Amazon etc. all use it as their platform of choice
2) Portable - we are having a desktop client. Whilst running on non-Windows desktops may not be a priority now, Macs and Linux are making noteworthy ground (Apple are nearly tipping 10% for the first time in decades!). Java would let us sell to these clients too.
3) Cheaper - Don't need to pay thousands for MS licences before they can even run our software (IIS, SQL Server etc.)
4) Better community - can leverage various OSS projects to accelerate development - in the .net world similar components are likely to be chargeable (and probably expensive!)
What do you think to my reasons and can anyone think of any other compelling arguments?
Many thanks,
Ash

makes no sense. Use the appropriate technology for the solution rather than something 'you like'.
Their 'dislike of .NET' almost certainly means they're stuck in the past and don't want to put in the effort to learn anything newer than VB6.

for client/server? Unless you need to support more platforms than just Windows using Java instead of .NET makes no sense.
1) Java is more widely adopted in 'serious' industry and the biggest websites e.g. ebay, Amazon etc. all use it as their platform of choiceIt isn't.
2) Portable - we are having a desktop client. Whilst running on non-Windows desktops may not be a priority now, Macs and Linux are making noteworthy ground (Apple are nearly tipping 10% for the first time in decades!). Java would let us sell to these clients too.No argument. Apple is a niche market for corporate use except with graphics designers, Linux is a niche market anywhere except for servers.
3) Cheaper - Don't need to pay thousands for MS licences before they can even run our software (IIS, SQL Server etc.)Wrong.
IIS comes free with Windows, and you still need a quality database server. As your current customers will be using MS SQL Server that's the most logical choice and its integration with .NET is way better than its integration with Java.
The most viable alternative is Oracle which is even more expensive.
The most viable alternative for IIS when using Oracle is WebLogic which is more expensive than is IIS (which after all is free).
4) Better community - can leverage various OSS projects to accelerate development - in the .net world similar components are likely to be chargeable (and probably expensive!)
Could be. But that could just be because you know the Java community better.
What do you think to my reasons and can anyone think of any other compelling arguments?
Unless you or (more important) your customers already have a Unix environment in place, there is no real reason to not use .NET.

We are introducing a new feature in Flex 2.0.1 that's due out
early next year. The feature is called "Modules" and it was
discussed at this year's MAX 2006. You can read more about it on
Roger Gonzalez's blog:
http://blogs.adobe.com/rgonzalez/
- check the "Modular Applications" articles. I think this will go a
long way to making the reusable parts you are talking about.
Flex does not build things from instructions unless they are
written in ActionScript. We have customers that do create dynamic
interfaces based on data loaded from a database, so it is possible.
But if you have pre-built templates and all you need to do is
change certain aspects at runtime, it should be pretty easy with
Flex. Take a look at the Flex documentation, especially the part
about the Flex framework and how Flex sources are compiled into
SWFs.
You style Flex components using style sheets (CSS files).
This also includes specifying skins for components if you decide to
give something a whole new look.
I'm a bit biased here, but I think using ColdFusion (version
7.0.2) with Flex 2 is very easy. But it depends on your needs,
budget, deployment, etc. WIth CF 7.0.2 and Flex Builder 2 you get
wizards to be build both CFC (ColdFusion components) and matching
ActionScript objects so that you exchange objects, not just data,
between Flex and CF.
WebServices can also be used (with CF, too). This gives you
more choices to the backend. If you have a large amount of data or
it is complex, consider Flex Data Services as that has data
management capabilities.
Flex 2 has localization capabilties. You create a 'resource
bundle' in various languages and build SWFs for each one. When the
end user choses their preference, take them to the page that loads
the appropriate SWF.

Should we really go for bean data controls for a new project?

Hi,
I am still new data controls and trying to figure out the advantages of using bean data controls for our new project. Our UI is going to have customized UI components and our back end is going to be a tcp/ip server.
Is it a good idea to develop java beans and then create data controls to bind to UI layer? I think it makes sense to use data controls if we want to use existing java beans. Maybe we would be separating the model layer by using data controls, but only thing it would be doing for us would be the simple object calls to my java beans. Would it be better to use data controls or use I choose to make object calls?
Thanks,
Manoj

Hi,
the POJO data control will always give you a benefit and develope productivity, unless what you have to build fits on a single page - in which case you may not mind the burdon of manual UI component binding

Converting Frame Size for Final Cut

I have XDCAM HD .mov files that are 1440x1080, which I converted through Streamclip to 1920x1080. And 2 problems arose:
1) the 1st time I imported them in the Project I had the right Frame Size : 1920x1080, but the wrong Pixel Aspect : HD (1440x1080) instead of Square.
2) the 2nd time I looked for an Option in Streamclip to select the Pixel Aspect, but there is none. I imported the 1920x1080 files into the project, and they appeared as 1440x1080 files!!!
I also tried creating a sequence with the desired specs (Frame Size and Pixel Aspect) and said NO when asked to conform the Sequence to the Clip. It worked but the RED Rendering will take forever.
Do you have a better solution?
Could the problem be my Version 6 Final Cut? Or am I missing something? I would be most grateful for any suggestion.

If you have iTunes 9 or higher, go to +iTunes > Preferences > General+. Under 'When inserting a CD' select any one of the three import options. Then click +Import Settings > Import Using > AIFF Encoder.+ In the same panel, click +Setting > Custom.+ Select +Sample Rate = 48Khz, Sample Size = 16 bit, Channels = Stereo.+ Then click +OK, OK, OK.+
Then in your Library, select the song you want to convert. Then do +Advanced > Create AIFF Version.+ iTunes will make a copy of the song & convert it to AIFF.

Is it possible to set frame size for a new project ?
