Joining spanned clips that are not avchd

I have a storage device that is fat32 and stores Video clips in 10min intervals. Is there a way to put the individual clips back together without placing them all on the timeline and rendering them out? They are stored as .dv clips if that helps. Thanks for the help.

If they're .dv files, they need rendering (or converting prior to import) in FCP. FCP doesn't use the .dv codec natively (iMovie does). FCP uses the QuickTime DV/DVCPro codec.
Once converted, you should be able to place the end-to-end on the Timeline without any issues - IF they were recorded correctly.

Why is firefox randomly playing advertisment clips that are not present on the screen?

I just downloaded Firefox 4 and now whenever I choose a new website or search, some kind of advertisement clip plays. I cannot find any ad box to close it or pause it, but it cuts itself off after about 30-60 seconds. If I stay on the website it repeats the same ad again. (Even on this site I have had random ad clips playing). I am not very computer literate so I don't know if its something I need to do on my end to shush these ads (preferably permanently) or something that I might need to seek help for.

Duplicate Detection Shows Clips That Are Not Dupes !

Let me admit at the outset that this is not a serious problem, just a curiosity.
I experimented with the "Show Duplicate Frames" command on a project and had loads of coloured lines appear denoting duplicates.
The only trouble is that there is not a single duplicate frame used in that project !
I then created another "test" project by importing a clip and breaking it down into subclips. I dragged them all from the browser to the timeline and then dragged another one that was obviously a duplicate.
It worked perfectly and the 2 dupes showed up in red.
So why has the original project got numerous false dupes? Incidentally this "problem" project was captured as 3 clips (from the same tape) which were then split into subclips.
Any ideas what is going on?

For detecting dupes, FCP looks at 2 things: the time code and reel number. If you have not changed the reel number from the default 001, and all your tapes start at 00:00:00:00, then you will have several clips with identical time code and reel numbers, which FCP will then assume are the same clips, just digitised at a different time. Not changing the reel number is a _bad habit_ because, if you ever lose your media and have to redigitise, you will be up the proverbial creek, not knowing what reel to put in when the system asks you for "Reel 001". Label your tapes and log your reel numbers!!!

Editing a movie that was already cut together without transcoding .h264 footage to proresslt. I want to transcode full clips that are used in the edit, but not any of the leftovers.

Editing a movie that was already cut together without transcoding .h264 footage to proresslt. I want to transcode full clips that are used in the edit, but not any of the leftovers. Is there an efficient way to this?
I'm thinking I can convert the files with Compressor and place them in a new folder with their original file names (not sure how to get compressor to do this yet) and then do a major "Reconnect Clip" afterwards.
Not sure if there's a more efficient way to get all the clips in the timeline to compressor. I want the full files, not a sequence export. I can go through one clip and a time and add the master file. I'd rather not.
The more automated processes the better.
Thank you. I'm currently working so I don't have the time to scour the forums. Help or links to help would be greatly appreciated.
B

yeah Media reconnect can be an issue.
Will Media Manager convert files? Another thing I was thinking was to Media Manage the sequence out, copying all the used files to a new folder, and then running that through compressor. But it still leads to a massive reconnect. Fine tuning all those edits would be less involved than re-editing the whole thing, I hope.

L do not see an orange line in the browser for clips that are in the timeline. What do I do?

How do I get the orange line to show in the brewer for clips that are in the timeline. Mine doesn't show it.

I called Apple and said it is a glitch which caused me not able to see a registration key. They sent my $30 back so I will make another order of Quicktime Pro 7 to get registration key.

IMovie How do you join video clips that have been split

In Imovie project, How do I join video clips that been split

Hi
And if the clips are not contiguous - Then You have to do as in all versions of iMovie from the very beginning.
• Put the clips into one new project
• Export this as full quality QuickTime movie
• Import this new merged QT-clip into Your main project
This is a way around that are very basic and used whenever more elaborated scenes are prepared - e.g. multiple text clips or when in need of adding several functions into it.
Tedious - but it always been like this - in contrast to FinalCut.

Best approach to delete records that are not in the source table anymore.

I have a situation where I need to remove records from dimensions that are not in the source data anymore. Right now we are not maintaing history, i.e. not using SCD but planning for the next release. If we did that it would be easy to figure the latest records. The load is nightly and records are updated and new added.
The approach that I am considering is to join the dimension tables the the sources on keys and delete what doesn't join. However, is there perhaps some function in OWB that would allow to do this automatically on import so it can be also in place for the future?
Thanks!

Bear in mind that deleting dimension records becomes problematic if you have facts attached to them. Just because this record is no longer in the active set doesn't mean that it wasn't used historically, and so have foreign key constraints on it in your database. IF this is the case, a short-term solution would be to add an expiry_date field to the dimension and update the load to set this value when the record disappears rather than to delete it.
And to do that, use the target dimension as a source table, outer join it to the actual source table on the natural key, and so your update will set expiry_date=nvl(expiry_date,sysdate) to set to sysdate if this record has not already been expired on all records where the outer join fails.
Further consideration: what do you do if the record is re-inserted into the source table? create a new dimension key? Or remove the expiry date?
But I will say that I am not a fan of deleting records in most circumstances. What do you do if you discover a calculation error and need to fix that and republish historical cubes? Without the historical data, you lose the ability to do things like that.

Join 2 tables which are not related with any primary-foriegn key constraint

Hello,
How to join 2 tables which are not related with any primary key foreign key constraint.
Ex.Consider Table A has 5 columns->A_ID,A_Name,A_Address,A_City,A_Pin(Total 10 rows)
Table B has 5 columns->B_ID,B_Name,B_Adress,B_City,B_City(Total 30 rows)
From both the table i want the data,which i need to use in curosr to display finally as "Address Label".
Both the table are entirely different,but there can be some names of Table A which may come in Table B also,if the name,address and city is also same.That means same person in both the table.
So finally i want total number of distinct records(distinct data of Table A which is not in B+all the data of table B) to come under Address Label.
How can i write the select query for this condition?
Thanks

If you have 10 rows in table_a, and 30 rows in table_b, then
SELECT       A_ID,          A_Name,     A_Address,     A_City,     A_Pin
FROM      table_a
UNION
SELECT       B_ID,          B_Name,     B_Adress,     B_City,     B_City
FROM      table_b
ORDER BY           2,               4
;will produce up to 40 rows; 40 if there are no duplicates. (UNION implies DISTINCT.)
The corresponding column types should be similar, if not exactly the same.
There's no problem if A_Name is VARCHAR2 (50) and B_Name is CHAR (30).
However, there will be a problem if A_ID is a NUMBER and B_ID is a TIMESTAMP.
You must have the same number of columns in all branches of the UNION.
If you want an ORDER BY clause, put it at the very end, after the last branch of the UNION.
You can use positional notation (where 2 means the 2nd column) like I did, or you can use names from the first prong of the UNION (such as A_Name).
From both the table i want the data,which i need to use in curosr to display finally as "Address Label".
So finally i want total number of distinct records(distinct data of Table A which is not in B+all the data of table B) to come under Address Label.I'm not sure what your mean about "Address Label".
Whenever you have a question, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) from all tables, and the exact results (formatted) that you want from that data.
You can concatenate all 5 columns into one VARCHAR2 column, if you want to.
You'll probably want to use RPAD (or simillar functions) to make the output line up nicely.
If any of the columns are not strings, use TO_CHAR to make string versions of them.
For example:
SELECT TO_CHAR (A_ID, '9999999')
     || '   '          -- leave a little space between the left-justified a_id and the right-justified a_name
     || RPAD (A_Name, 25)
     || RPAD (A_Address, 50)

How to select all the people that are not in any equipe ?

Hi,
I have a nice SQL expression that gives me as a result all the "AGENTS" (people) that are working in an EQUIPE (a team)
select a."AGENT_ID",
a."NOM" || ' ' || a."PRENOM" "Nom",
c.libelle "Equipe",
a."DATE_EMBAUCHE" "Date embauche",
a."DATE_DEBAUCHE" "Date débauche"
from OBSERVATOIRE."AGENT" a,
observatoire.equipe_agents b,
observatoire.equipe c
where a.agent_id = b.agent_id
and b.equipe_id = c.equipe_id
order by nom
Now, how to select all the agents that are NOT working in any "EQUIPE" (team) ?
I have tried but could not succeed !
Thank you for your kind help.

It is not working because the table EQUIPE_AGENTS does not contains a row if the agent is not into any equipe.

     "EQUIPE_ID" NUMBER NOT NULL ENABLE,

     "DATE_EMBAUCHE" DATE NOT NULL ENABLE,
     "DATE_DEBAUCHE" DATE)
The only way to "know" if an agent is not into any equipe (team) is to search into the EQUIPE_AGENTS table, and if we do not find the ID of the agent into this table, then we know that this agent is not into any EQUIPE (team).
I don't know ho to translate this into SQL.And that's what my query does. It uses an OUTER JOIN so that a result record is returned whether or not there is a record in EQUIPE_AGENTS. And the check for EQUIPE_ID is NULL restricts the result set to those where there IS NOT a record in EQUIPE_AGENTS.
A more traditional way would be to use NOT IN or NOT EXISTS clauses, but they can prove inefficient.

H.264 export without audio creates files that are not recognized in Quicktime or VLC

Dear all,
I need to generate h.264 files with video only. (short clips for use with a "clickable" catalog on an iPad)
Used the "H.264" category and chose a preset. Unchecked "Audio" so I only get the video exported.
The resulting .m4v file is not playable in Quicktime or VLC or MPEG streamclip.
When I leave audio enabled with the same preset, the file is fine, but as soon as I export without audio, the resulting file is unreadable.
Source material is ProRes 422HQ, audio+video, about 30-40 seconds long.
Any clues?
Carl.

Thanks Jeff, I did get that far ;-)
I'm sorry, probably my question wasn't very clear. Of course I can find some technical info about the iPad...
And of course some of the presets in Media Encoder provide basic starting points for encoding.
But... there is also the first iPad, I couldn't find the specs about it on the Apple site. On everymac.com I found:
Apple reports that the iPad supports "H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats."
So if I want to be compatible with all iPads I need to probably stay under 720p30 with [email protected] for H.264
When I look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC
I find (from the example values) that 1280x720@30p is quite near the maximum matrix size. So with 1024x576 I should be ok there. My bandwith of about 2Mbit is also well within range in this case. But what if I want to fill an iPod screen (1024x768) with the highest possible quality video? How do I calculate if this fits the max frame size requirements, where this is expressed in a number of luma samples and macroblocks? What is my max bandwith? The tables says that the "Max video bit rate for video coding layer (VCL) kbit/s" should be <14.000kbps. Does that directly translate to the sliders in my encoding app?
If you look in the table "AVC software implementations" (under Software encoder feature comparison) you can see that some features that are supported in MainConcept, and not supported in Qt. (8×8 vs. 4×4 transform adaptivity, Quantization scaling matrices, Separate Cb and Cr QP control, etc. What are these exactly?)
In Streamclip one can choose to have B-frames or not, in AME there is no such control. Does that mean it always encodes with B-frames? Why would one not want to have B-frames?
A lot of parameters in AME H.264 encoding seem to be set to certain fixed values that are not accessible to the user. Other programs (Sorensen, Telestream) provide the user with access to more parameters. Which parameters in AME are set to what (fixed, non-accessible) values and why?
As I said earlier, Quicktime reports different codecs for what should be the same format but from different encoders. Why? Is there a program that can analyze a H.264 stream and report about it in more detail than VLC/Quicktime?
etc. etc. etc....
If anyone could recommend an online resouce or a book to learn more about the ins and outs of H.264 encoding/decoding that would be great. I have the first edition of Charles Poynton's (brilliant!) book "Digital Video and HDTV", which does talk about MPEG-2 but not H.264. I saw that the second edition goes a bit more into detail about H.264. Does anyone have the second edition? Worth buying just for the relatively small addition about H.264?
Thanks.

How to unglue clips that are stuck together in the timeline

I've looked everywhere, I'm sure it's there but I can not find how to "unglue" clips that are stuck together in the timeline. NOT break apart clip items, but get rid of those pesky things that attach the different levels of video together. And BTW what the heck are those little claws called?
Thank you so very very much in advance!

You can't move tracks. Everything in the timeline has to be connected to the primary storyline at some point. Each clip that's connected can be connected individually so it's free floating and the connection point can be moved anywhere you want, or the clips can be strung togother and connected at a single point. You can Opt-Cmd-click to change the connection to a new location, but it has to be connected somehow.

Disabling all movie clips that are on lower levels

Hello
I have a movie clip that pops up over all other movie clips.
But it is still possible to interact with these movie clips that
are beneath the mc that has popped up. Is there any way to disable
all of the movie clips that are beneath the one that popped up?
thanks

Typically the way to do this is simply create a large
invisible MovieClip which covers everything, and give it a an
interactive event. I often use:
on(rollOver){
useHandCursor = false;
This way not only does it steal interaction from anything
below it, it makes it so the cursor doesn't turn into a hand making
the user think there's something clickable.
You could also make a loop which checks getDepth() and if
it's below a specified depth, set enabled = false, but there's
really no reason in doing that.

How to list files that are NOT in a .jar file?

Is it possible to list files (resources, .gif/.jpg files, etc.) that are NOT included in the jar but are still to be considered part of the application somewhere in the jnlp-file?
My applications requires lots of icons which I have put into .gif files. So far I kept them in individual files next to the .jar file and that worked fine.
JWS now seems to support only stuff that is included in (a) .jar-file(s). That in itself woul not be much of a problem, however, when I include my .gif files into the .jar files they seem to get corrupted by the jar-signing process (at least that what's the code says, which can suddenly not handle these images any more).

My previous seem to have been non-sense. The .gif file were not corrupted, but rather they were not found at all. They actually must NOT be included in the .jar file, or else they are not found. Strange enough, the .properties-file seemingly HAS to be in the .jar file to be found.
This is something I'll probably never fully understand with java: which file-types it searches where...

How do you add/use typekit fonts that are not edge web fonts?

I am just trying out the new Muse CC 2014.1 (August) release and was keen to try the new font facilities. As far as I can see that while I can now add other fonts for which I have downloaded web font files via the Self Hosted Web Fonts function, Typekit fonts that are not "Adobe Edge Web Fonts" are effectively unavailable? Have I missed something.
As an example I want to use the Proxima Nova web font family. I have selected it on the type kit site, set them up to Sync via my Creative Cloud account. So for example if I select a font in Photoshop CC or Illustrator, the Proxima Nova fonts appear. Even ok in Word for Mac. They do not appear in Muse.
To add them as self hosted web fonts, I would need to physically download the relevant fonts files and install them on my desktop using the OS-X font tool. However as they are being sync'd via Creative Cloud this shouldn't be necessary should it? Also I don't see an option for doing so on the typekit site.
Any help or guidance would be very welcome.
PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.

Hi David,
I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. To add fonts from Typekit to your Muse website, you will want to use the web fonts path instead of desktop fonts. (You can use a desktop font synced from Typekit in your Muse design, but it will exported as an image the same as any other system font.)
There are a couple options for using Typekit web fonts in Muse:
o) The Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
o) Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website. The steps are the same as this tutorial, but you will add the Typekit embed code to Muse instead of into your page directly:
TYPEKIT | Adding fonts to your site
Note that in either case the Typekit fonts will not be displayed in the Muse preview window. You'll need to publish your site to a server in order for the Typekit fonts to be loaded into the page.
If those look like more coding that you are comfortable with, you might try one of the fonts which you can select from the font menu instead. Here are some that are similar to :
https://edgewebfonts.adobe.com/fonts#/?xHeight=high&contrast=low&class=sans-serif&width=re gular
We are also working on a more complete integration of Typekit with Muse in the future, but I can't say yet when that will be available.
>> PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.
Do you see a "loading" icon in the tab (e.g. a blue spinner wheel)? It sounds similar to this thread; you might try these suggestions:
Re: Adobe Creative Cloud / Desktop App / Home Screen: Constant Spinning Wheel
I hope that this helps; let me know if you have any other questions. Best,
