Merging projects/.lso files without bouncing?

I have 5 short pieces of dialogue/foley(each in a separate .lso file) that need to end up in 1 edit.
The client has the rough version and will reply shortly with possible changes. Someone else is going to compose music (also in Logic) and i'd like to be able make changes and cater for the added music without having to go back to the smaller projects and bouncing again.
I don't mind doing stuff by hand and so far it all seems to work except moving/copying -ehem- automation between projects.
Any experience or workflow tips for doing this?

Yes, I'm a big fan of folders. There are a few caveats, tho, which I'll tell ya 'bout:
If you have tracks muted (at the track level) and you pack a folder with those tracks, your mutes will come along for the ride. Great! This is what you'd expect. But, if you ever unpack the folder, the mute status of the tracks gets lost.
So before you unpack a folder, check to see if any of the tracks contained therein are muted. If so...
1. As a safety precaution that you won't hear the wrong regions playing after you unpack the folder, enter the folder and mute all of the individual regions of that track.
2. In the event that you already have individually muted regions on that track, before muting anything else (as in step 1), color these muted regions so you can later differentiate them from unmuted regions. For this purpose I use red or an "ugly" color.
Now, when you unpack your folder, the red/ugly colored regions will stand out as an indication that:
a) that track was originally muted within the folder at the track level and needs to be re-muted
b) if you don't get around to muting that track for a while (it can happen), at least the rest of the regions on that track won't play for the meantime because you muted the individual regions. Here's an example:
M = track mute
o = individually muted region
--- = region
INSIDE THE FOLDER...
Track 1 [M] ----------- o-------- ------- o--------
Track 2 [ ] --- -------
Track 3 [M] o-------- ------- o--------
• Color the individually muted regions red/ugly. Mute the other regions.
• Unpack the folder.
• You can now re-mute the tracks that were originally muted within the folder, these tracks being indicated by ugly-colored regions
• manually unmute the non-colored regions.
Hope that's not too confusing!

Test the code without Bouncing Apache(R12)

Hi All,
Is there any way to test the updated code(class files) without bouncing oacore(oacorectl.sh stop/start).
Like any parameter can we set, such a way that the system will pickup the new class file available in the directory?
Thanks.

Project Manager can´t see my .lso files

Hello logicusers, I am new at the forum and this is my first trouble: Project Manager can´t see my .lso files. I would like to start using PM but it seems to be difficult without seeing .lso files in the navigator window.
I´ve read the books, I´ve checked here for this tip and got a lot of useful information, but no solution found. I hope somebody could help me please:
- Macbook white with LP 7.2.3
- Reinstalled and cleaned all
- Installed OSX upgrade 0.4.9 manually
- Installed pro application support 3.1
- PM Data and logic preferences deleted
- permissions applied to "all enclosed folders"
- Performed a complete scan in PM
If I create a new song from logic, PM can´t see this .lso file.
If I scan a external hard drive (lacie f.a.porsche) through PM, it only recognizes one .lso file from a lot of old songs, and I don´t imagine why.
Yesterday I tried this: opened PM, copied a Template song from the Templates folder to the Desktop; renamed it as "Sidload" (my particular "Autoload" term); until here, everything correct, PM seems to be able to manage "Sidload". But when I open Sidload and save the first change, and .bak folder comes, I can´t make more "visible copies for PM" of this file. Finder can see the new copies, but PM not (files that has created "itself"); so I can´t manage a song that has been copied, renamed and saved for first time -through PM, from a Template; invisible, dissapears. No saving PM data, no checking folder, no advanced search helps.
I wish to have a way to talk to logic support via mail, but I don´t know how. So I came here to beg you friends for your help. Thank you very much for being here.

yep, I have scanned at every level, from everything to just a single folder that contains song files. After scanning a folder that conatins songs on my SATA B drive (the one that PM can't find songs), still the songs will not appear.
I have copied over my songs to the drive that PM seems to see songs on and guess what? It doesn't see those songs copied over.
This is driving me so nuts I have forgotten that I engaged in this thread...
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1046126&tstart=0
Does anyone know what the option in the PM's file menu "import file maps" and delete all exported file maps" does? Or what its for?
It feels to me that some sort of database or referrence list etc etc has gone very wrong, but I have already tried deleting (manually) the PM data file in somewhere in the library folder etc etc.
Using file buddy I see that PM stores the a PM database as an invisable file on each drive you have connected. Presumably info for what is on that drive. Perhaps these invisable files need to be manually deleted???

Mergeing files of same structure to one file without BPM

Hi XI Gurus,
 I want to merge various xml files having same structures(coming as separate files in source directory) to a one file. I want to do it without using BPM.I need this Final structure as an input to another scenario to post an idoc.
e.g -->
File1:
<AR_Posting>
 <currency_line_item>1<currency_line_item>
 <tax_line_item>2<tax_line_item>
 <customer_line_item>3<customer_line_item>
<AR_Posting>
File 2:
<AR_Posting>
 <currency_line_item>11<currency_line_item>
 <tax_line_item>22<tax_line_item>
 <customer_line_item>33<customer_line_item>
<AR_Posting>
File 3 :
<AR_Posting>
 <currency_line_item>111<currency_line_item>
 <tax_line_item>222<tax_line_item>
 <customer_line_item>333<customer_line_item>
<AR_Posting>
Target:
<Recordset>
 <AR_Posting>
 <currency_line_item>1<currency_line_item>
 <tax_line_item>2<tax_line_item>
 <customer_line_item>3<customer_line_item>

 <tax_line_item>222<tax_line_item>
 <customer_line_item>333<customer_line_item>
 <AR_Posting>
<Recordset>
Please suggest any solution to achieve this.

Hi Anurag,,
I guess what Sumit is aiming for, is that if you don't want to use a BPM you will need a two step solution.
Step one:
If the different files have the same structure, read them with a sending file adapter and route the to an receiving file adapter which appends all messages to a new combined file.
Step two:
Read the new combined file with a sending file adapter and route the messages to your target interface.
This approach of-course means that you can not do any correlations as you can in BPM. I.e. you will not "know" when all three files have arrived but just simply read the combined files at certain times and pick-up whatever content it holds.

How can I join/merge my AVCHD files that I tape with my camcorder without re-encoding the files?

I have a lot of tapes that cut in the middle while recording more than 12 minutes. I would like to join/merge my files. What should I do? Which softwares should I use?

Because I don't have any of Sony's softwares, or softwares that they use, I can't help much on that side of things, but programs that I use are
Freemake Video Converter to convert it into a format that VirtualDub can read, then use VirtualDub to load up the first file, then use the Amend AVI to add the next file that you want to merge, and keep going until you're ready.
Then I check the video and audio compression, make sure they're on full compression, choose the codec and video bitrate, and audio bitrate that I want, and save.
I'm sure Sony's programs, or the ones they use, make it much easier. Try PlayMemories and Sony Vegas, they'll work with the AVCHD files without too much extra converting (and if it does convert, it's all in-program so should be much easier)

How does a .ALI file have to look like in a merged project (RH9)

In RH5 (X5) the central .ali file of a merged project contained the enumeration of the #included .ali files of the sub-projects.
Now how does this file have to look like in a merged RH9 project? Given that all files (or most) are XML-files now it seems that the simple enumeration by #include doesn't work any longer.

The PDF file itself.
For example, we sell eDocuments in PDF format, we have Acrobat Pro, I make a revision and that revision on my server can push a notification next time they open the eDocument that there's a update available. Much like many software programs can do, except this is a distributed PDF document that can look for updates inside Acrobat Reader for the end user.
Essentially we're trying to find a better way for people to get revisions of purchased PDF files as they become available.
Thanks for your time.

Merged Project - Can you share images between multiple projects/topics without images actually copied into each project?

I have a merged project that I use the same images in several topics in different projects. I use the resource manager but each time these images are being copied into each project. My merged project is getting so large it is taking forever to download. I hope I'm just missing a step to eliminate the redundant usage of these images.

I'm concerned since the complete merged projects have increased in size on a steady basis. For example, January 2014 project size was 288mb and I just published again today and it has increased to 353mb. There are so many images replicated over and over in each merged project. We are getting complainants from our customers on the size of our online documentation. I was hoping for a easy solution and thought this might be the best way.

Merging Projects in RoboHelp 8

I've never merged projects before so this is probably user
error, but when I follow the steps from the Adobe help system for
merging projects in RoboHelp 8, generate the project, and then view
it my merged project is not present. This is what I did:
(1) Created a generic project (documentation that we reuse in
all help systems)
(2) Created the client project (documentation that's specific
to this client's help system)
(3) From the Client Project in the TOC pod, I clicked the New
Merged Project icon
(4) This is a WebHelp Pro project so I selected the
FlashHelp/WebHelp/Adobe AIR tab
(5) I browsed for the generic project (located in a seperate
folder)
(6) I clicked OK
(7) The generic project name showed up in the TOC
(8) I generated the project like normal
(9) I clicked View Results and the only stuff that's there is
just the stuff from the client project. Nothing from the generic
project is available.
Everything that I read says that merged project doesn't show
up until the project is published. I guess with the way we do work
I don't understand the difference between generating and
publishing. What happens is that I generate the project, zip the
WebHelp Pro folder, email it to a developer or put it in a shared
drive depending on the client and then the developer attached the
files to the system. To call the correct screen, I have to include
a HTM for every single screen (wfm) in the application. The
application calls the screen name with the same HTM name which
displays a screen help page for that particular screen and then the
user can use the navigation (TOC or search or links) to find the
help topics they're looking for. I doubt this is the "best" way to
do this, but I'm working with developers on a 12 hour time
difference and this is how they requested the files. Point being --
there is no "publishing" step according to my understanding of
publishing. I know there is a server somewhere because the actually
application we build is on a server, but I don't know the technical
aspects about how my HTM files I create get onto that server and
display online.
Can anyone help me?

Actually, I had generated all the child project previously,
but what I did wrong is that I didn't create a folder for the
child. It looks like in the table of contents, you actually have to
include a separate folder for the mergedProject to go into. I just
called it the same thing that I called the child project. For
example "Global Features." You can't just have the mergedProject go
into the table of contents without it being in a folder (normally).
That said, I did find a way to get it in there before I found this
solution. I did all the steps that Peter Grainge had suggested,
then I copied and pasted the !SSL folder from where the child
project was saved into the mergedProject folder of the parent
project. That's basically what RoboHelp does anyway, but doing it
manually allows for you not to have to create a folder in the table
of contents -- just provides a different navigation to the same
thing.

Trying to load pre-2006 lso files into Logic 8 on my new intel Mac Pro

I'm trying to load pre-2006 lso files into Logic 8 on my new intel Mac Pro, but they crash the app every time. files saved 2006 and later load OK. Anybody shed any light on this or know of a fix (other than the laborious work-around of re-saving all early lso's in logic 8 on the PPC and physically moving them via a portable drive to the new machine)?
(BTW, those files also crash the Logic 7 installed on the intel Mac.)

Upon further work with my migration, I find I was incorrect in the time frame assertion of these failed files: apparently, the creation/modification dates have nothing to do with it and the reality is that some files fail at random, while others load just fine. right now it looks to be about 50/50 Beats me why this is.
Anyway, for those interested, I've discovered a very helpful key to the quick processing of file data for a plethora of files (i. e. re-saving the "bad" lso files as Logic 8 projects on the older CPU and moving them over to my new machine), and that is the 'control key/launch' of the app. I hadn't realized that Apple had added this feature to Logic to enable easier work on multiple song files when one does not require the audio.
For those who don't know about it, the 'control key/launch' provides an option to disable the core audio at app start-up, thus allowing files to load instantly without loading the plug-in library files associated with tracks - great for copying MIDI data between song files, or in this case, re-saving a batch.
Still puzzled, though, as to why so many older lso files crash Logic when they attempt to load on my new CPU.

Error saving Project 2010 files to network drive - doesn't see network drive

ANSWERED (11 April 2014):
So it seems the resolution to this is to simply create a new share with a different name. I used the existing folder (to retain NTFS permissions) and just select to Add a new Share (applying the same Share permissions as the non working Shares).
Deploying this new Share via Group Policy as a test resulted in staff being able to open files from Windows Search, save files through MS Project and the Share being accessible through browsing SMB.
All problems resolved by using a new share name for the existing folder. Seems to be a corruption in the namespace.
Note: I had previously deleted the share and recreated it. I had removed all NTFS permissions and readded (through both the GUI and icacls). This didn't make a difference.
Only changing the name of the share fixed the problem.
Original Question
Already
posted here... but Microsoft Support has not responded.
It seems some staff on some computers are having problems saving MS Project files to the network. This is only since an upgrade to SBS2011 (from SBS2003). The only difference now, is that network drives are mapped via group policy rather than a 'net
use' script.
This is affecting users on Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, with either MS Project 2007 or 2010. The users have full change access to the folders and can create new files and modifying existing files, just not a MS Project file. Other file tyes, e.g
Word .docx, Excel .xlsx, Adobe .pdf files, all work fine. These files can be opened, edited and saved normally without problem.
To replicate this:
The user opens an existing file or creates a new file on the network folder (either through Windows Explorer or MS Project). They then click File > Save in MS Project and receive the following error (see pic below):
An interesting symptom of this is that if you select File > Save As in MS Project, the Sae As dialog box doesn't remeber the path location of the network drive. MS Project instead prompts to save the file in the local users documents folder (see pic below):
If they browse back to the original folder where the file was saved and choose to save it there, they are of course, prompted to overwrite the existing file and they can save the file. But the same thing happens every time they open the file.
It seems the problem is that Project isn't seeing the path of the file or that the network drive is attached.
If a user closes the file without saving it, they are prompted to save the file and the prompt shows the drive path:
Do you want to save changes to "N:\... Projects\Active Projects\CC...\F4 Project Plan File\004 Programme\test project file.mpp"?
But choosing to save the file gives them the same result as Save As, they are prompted for a new location as if the original file location doesn't exist.
I have disconnected the mapped drive and connected it again using net use but get the same error.
I have reinstalled MS Project 201, installed Project 2010 SP2 and installed Windows updates and it does the same thing, exactly the same symptoms.
Further, if the user opens a file from the network drive, the file shows in the Project recent files list. If they try to open the file from the recent files list in project they get the following error:
"Project cannot open the file.
-Check that the file name and path are correct.
-Check that the file format is recognized by Project.
Project files saved in a version earlier than Microsoft Project 98 can't be opened...."
This is a test file that I created on the user's computer and network drive, This is being opened with the same version it was created in. If I browse to the folder in Windows Explorer I can open the file. Of course, I then can't save the file (I still get
the original error). I'm logged on with Domain Admin privileges.
I've checked these links from other threads (neither apply to my scenario):
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/983458/en-us|
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/excel/thread/2eeea140-7e6c-4cb9-a89b-06d2102bd9f7/
I've downloaded my TechNet version of he software and installed it with Sp2 and Windows updates and it does the same thing. This also happens on the Remote Desktop server (Server 2008 R2) using MS Project 2007.

Case 1
This error message appears when the document is open on two or more computers that are running different operating platforms. For example,
if the document is open on a Macintosh computer and you open it on a second computer running Windows or Windows NT, the error occurs when either user tries to save the document.
This problem stems from a difference between the ways Macintosh OLE and Windows OLE open files. As a result, you cannot save a file on two different operating platforms at the same time.
Case 2
This error occurs in Word 97 for Windows if you save to a MAPROOT type network drive connection on a NetWare server where spaces exist in
the file or folder name.
Case 3
This problem may occur if an anti-virus program running on a network has the ability to scan for macro viruses in documents in shared network
folders.
For example, if you have the following:
a shared folder on a network server
-and-
an anti-virus program is running on the network server that is set to monitor the shared folder,
when you attempt to save a document (across the network) to the shared folder, the anti-virus checker may cause the error to occur.
Case 4
This problem may occur on Novell networks when the AutoRecover files path is either blank or set to a network drive.
According each, please try the following workaround:
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, use one of the following methods appropriate to your situation.
Case 1
Method 1:
Move the document to your local hard disk for editing. Move it back to the server after you finish.
Method 2:
Save a copy of the
file with a different
file name, and work on the copy, either on your hard disk or on the server.
Case 3
Method 1:
Move the document to your local hard disk for editing. Move it back to the server after you finish.
Method 2:
Do not use spaces in the directory or document names.
Method 3:
Do not use MAPROOT-drive connections. Map your drive connections to the volume-level only.
Case 4
Turn off the anti-virus protection on the network server and then try to
save the document. Contact your anti-virus protection software company for additional details and/or updates to their programs.
Case 5
Set the AutoRecover files path to your local drive. To change the AutoRecover path, use the following steps:
1.
On the Tools menu, click Options.
2.
On the File Locations tab, select AutoRecover files and then click Modify.
3.
Change the Modify Location dialog box to a
folder on your local drive and then click OK.
4.
Click OK to close the Options dialog box.
Hope that helps.

Can't open Project 2010 file in Project 2007

I am trying to open a Project 2010 file in Project 2007, I get an error that asks if I would like to download the converter and I say yes and get a generic product page for Project 2010. I can't locate the file that I need, how do I find it?

Addressed here:

Why are Map IDs landing in Project Map File, not All Maps, and with a .h extension

I am using the Tech Comm Ste 2, Adobe Robohelp 8.0.2.2 in Windows XP. I assign map IDs manually instead of using automap. I open the Edit Map IDs window. In the right column, under "Topic," I select the topic I want to map. I then click the icon below to open the Context-sensitive Properties for Help Topic window. I select the topic title, without the .htm, and copy it. Then, from the left column, I click the Map File dropdown list and select the HH file to which I want to map the help topic. I then click the icon at the bottom to open the Create/Edit Map ID window. In the first field, I paste the topic ID, and in the second field I enter the map ID I want to assign. Then I click OK.
Usually this places the topic in the correct HH file, highlighted in yellow until I select the topic from the list and then click Assign. For some reason, RH is not adding my topic to the HH file; instead it is adding it to the Project Map file. When I click OK, I get a blank window and the Assign button is disabled. My topic shows up in the Project Map File. The topic displays with the HH files and a .h extension has been added to it.
I can't delete these topics from the Project Map file. I can't assign them map IDs. And this seems to happen randomly. SOMETIMES I can map my topics, but I never know when I can do it and when one of them is going to land in the Project Map file.
Can anyone help?

Personally I've never had or heard of this issue. The fact that this appears to be random suggests that the MapFile dropdown may not be displaying the correct map file when you add or assign the mapid. Also check to ensure your project's source files are not located on a network drive as this can cause issues. If this continues perhaps you could give us an image of what you are seeing.

Urgent - HTML help merged projects - displaying in the same window

Hi All,
Following some recent windows updates I'm experiencing all sorts of problems. My most urgent problems is as follows:
First off this is all in RH8 and yes I have upgraded to 8.0.2 and project is set to re-build cpd each time.
So I have a merges project as follows:
Parent project
child project 1
chils project 2 etc
when I compile an html help project with TOC, and single source window settings on default if I click on a child project it is diaplyued in a separate window. If I then select a different project in the parent project TOC this is also displayed in a different window but the window still has the caption of the previously opened file.
What I need as the end result is for my HTML help project output to al display in the same window whether I click on a parent project item, or a child project item.
Please can somebody advise mne how to do this as I am VERY close to a deadline and as usual it seems RH8 has let me down again.....
Thanks

Hi there
Methinks Colum needs more coffee, because the options he cited have nothing to do with other windows. They have to do with whether the displayed topic synchronizes with the TOC and whether the TOC entry is highlighted.
I'm thinking it has to do with creating a "Global" window. You change the names of the windows so they include Global.

Premiere Elements 11. Can't open Project (PREL file) in Windows 8.1.

I have created Project (PREL file) in Premiere Elements 11 in Windows 7 Professional environment. I was able to open it with no problem.
Now I have Windows 8.1. When I am trying to open this project, I have a pop-up saying 'This type of file is not supported, or the required codec is not installed.'
HELP!!!!!

Levalt
From what you wrote, this is my understanding.
For each of your projects, you set up a special save location for the project file (project.prel) and the source media that go into that particular project.
If you have 12 projects, for each, you have a special save location (the project.file source media combo.)
Each of those 12 projects needs to be exported to a file saved to the computer hard drive. One suggestion might be is to save the export from each into a saved location name Grand Project Source Media.
It is these 12 exports that are going to be imported into the Grand Final product which will be outputted as wanted. At this point, those exports are your source media that needs to stay in contact with the grand projects. The source media that went into the individual 12 projects are out of the equation at this point.
But, back to the point that I was trying to get at. Each of those 12 projects that you start with has to have project settings (aka project preset). And, those project settings should match the properties of whatever you are putting on the Timeline of the each project. The project settings direct the program to set the right space in the Edit area monitor for editing so that you do not have black borders, pixel aspect ratio problems, and the like. So, I want to make sure that you have the right project settings for each project.
Then you need to export the TImeline content from each of those projects. Ideally the export settings should be consistent with the source media properties and the project settings. The ideal is to have this to be the case for all 12 projects. Cannot advise you about these settings without details...
What is the project preset for the 12 starting project...NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 or something else?
If that is your project preset, what are your source media 1080i30, 1080p30, or something else?
I am suspecting that each individual project will be exported to a HD export 1920 x 1080 which might be a Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD with Presets set to maybe a .m2t file, maybe .mp4 file. It is all going to depend on a coordinated plan.
If you still have questions and need clarification about the above, do not hesitate to ask. I will explain another way if necessary.
Thank you.

Problem with index in merged projects

Dear Sir,
I have a problem with index in the master project, I can only
view the master project index keywords under the index tab. My
master project contains 2 topics besides the other sub projects. I
have created index for all sub projects indvidually and at the end
I created the master project index.
I made sure that the 'Binary Index' flag is ticked before
compilation and stil the problem is on, do somebody know what could
be the problem.

Hi,
Two points here.
Firstly, you can duplicate SSL's. (Right click on an SSL in
the projects sub-directory and select the duplicate layout option.
This will give you a copy of the original SSL).
I tend to have two SSL's - one is local and I use that every
time I test compile the project when I'm working on it.
The other is set to output to the master project. I use that
once I'm happy with the sub-project and start working with the
master project.
Second point is to be aware of how RoboHelp treats the
imported/merged .chm files from the sub projects.
It imports them into the main project master directory - then
when the master project is compiled it puts a copy of them into the
master project SSL. However, if you re-compile it doesn't overwrite
the files that are already in the master project SSL directory.
This is why you have to be aware of where the sub project
.chm files are going - you need to make sure that if you revise the
sub projects, a fresh copy of the .chm files ends up in the output
SSL directory of the master project.

Merging projects/.lso files without bouncing?
