Multiple (different) DVD outputs from a single Encore project

I have 5 DVD's to output. Each of them is based off the same menu template. (see attachment) What will be changing from one DVD to the next are the number of buttons and the "workshop" title. Is it possible or advisable to copy the menu that I have done already, modify it and output it as a new dvd all in the same encore project file? (Without altering the one I have completed already) I hope that made sense. Or do I need to have a new Encore project for each DVD?
TIA
Dean

I agree with the others, and it's basically the way that I have done multi-disc Projects.
I first set up a Project, and Import all Assets, that are common across all Projects, arranging them in appropriate Folders/Bins. Then, I Save that Project, to be used as a "template," for each disc in the set. I also make a Copy of that Project (complete), just in case I forget the next step. I Open my "template" Project, and do a Save_As, with the disc number in the new name. I Import all unique Assets, modify my Menus, and do any required linking. If OK, I then output. For the next disc, I Open that "template" Project, and repeat the process, incrementing the Project's file name to reflect the next disc, say_02, in lieu of the first one's _01. Repeat.
I've used this workflow for Projects that were up to 18 discs, with no problems.
Just plan your "template" Project out, so that you will only have to Import material, that is unique to that disc.
Good luck,
Hunt

Multiple Input and Output from a 6534

Hello
I am after some advice regarding my PCI 6543 digital I/O card and the best way to achieve my desired results. I am programming in Visual C++ with Ni-DAQ 7.
I want to generate a pattern output from one of the ports, Port A, following a software command. This pattern consists of a 10uS pulse on DIOA0, that repeats 200 times with a period of 100uS. I want this DIOA0 output line to initiate an input on ports C and D, possibly through the REQ pin. Consequently the input should acquire 200 times for each call to the pattern output.
I want this to repeat, so the pattern output goes again (as in a FOR loop), and the input occurs again for an as yet undetermined number of times.
I have managed to get something worki
ng for 1 iteration, and I can generate multiple pattern outputs, but the inputs only seem to acquire for the 1st iteration. However, if I step through the code in debug mode I can get the input to work correctly.
Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated.
I am still trying to get some earlier problems with this application solved.
Kind Regards
Jamie

Hi Jamie,
There are a couple different ways you can loop from a buffer. You can either use the onboard memory of the 6534 and loop from there or you can specify as a software configuration that the board loop through the PC memory buffer.
For the onboard looping you need to specify the following:
iStatus = Set_DAQ_Device_Info (1, ND_PATTERN_GENERATION_LOOP_ENABLE, ND_ON);
For software, PC memory looping, the following function specifies this:
iStatus = DIG_DB_Config (iDevice, iGroup, 1, 0, 1);
I attached a couple programs that might be of use. Check this post:

Patterned input and output from a single port w/ NI 6534 DIO

Is it possible to configure certain lines in a port to be read and others to be write? I am interested in doing patterned I/O with a single port, first output, then input. Not both at the same time. Is it possible to perform patterned output on one line and patterned input on a different line within the same port?
Thanks
-Scott

Hi Scott,
I understand that you'd like to do digital I/O on a PCI-6534. All of the scenarios you outlined in your question should be possible with this board.
1. You can configure some lines of a port to output signals while others input signals by using a line direction map.
2. You can do patterned I/O on the same port at the same time.
I'm not sure what software you're using to interface with the 6534, but if you happen to be using LabVIEW, then there is a shipping example which demonstrates the basics of patterned I/O on a single port of a DIO board. The example is called Digital Multi-line Direction (E).vi and can be found in Help >> Find Examples. If you are using another programming language, then there may be examples on ni.com.
Hope this helps

Rippling waves in DVD output from rendering process? Has anyone seen this?

I have created a new project within Premiere Pro CS3. I have imported in about 300 still photos to create a DVD slide show mixed with some movie footage from one avi file. The following are the specs of the stills:
1. Each still was scaled down to 1440X960 in size within Photoshop CS3. None of the images were scaled up.
2. I disabled Premiere from resizing the images during import process so that I can setup panning and zooming each image.
3. I added all images to my timeline with a 6 second delay.
4. I then setup all even images to start at %size of 50% and then zoom out to 100% using keyframes.
5. I then setup all odd images to start panning from left to right, during the 6 seconds they are displayed, with the image %size of 75%
I then added music to the audio track and then exported as a Movie, which created an avi file.
I then imported this avi file into Encore and created my final DVD, which is only about 30 minutes long.
I gave a copy to a friend, and when he attempted to view the movie on his MAC and then his PC running XP, he reported that he was seeing rippling waves throughout the video. He explained them to look kind of like heat waves that you would see coming off hot asphalt. Which this cause the image to be somewhat distorted. When he placed the DVD in his home TV dvd system and it displayed on his TV, the results were much better, but you can still see a little of those waves. I also see a little of those waves on my new dvd player attached to my High Def TV.
My questions tho this group are:
1. What causes these waves to appear?
2. How to get rid of them and make the video more high resolution looking?
Thank you all for your help.
Rick

> What causes these waves to appear
Interlacing.
> 2. How to get rid of them and make the video more high resolution looking?
Use progressive frames for computer playback. Or set up your PC's DVD software to deinterlace DVDs on playback (quality may vary).
You can also apply the "anti-flicker" settings in Premiere's motion to soften it a bit.

How do I get good DVD output from FX7 footage?

I just videotaped a dance concert and when I transferred the video to my computer and output it to a DL DVD, the quality is nowhere near as good as a straight HDMI connection to a TV. It doesn't even look that good on the computer in Premiere elements before I output to DVD. I'm using Adobe Premiere Elements 7. I don't know if it's the project settings for the transfer, I chose HDV 1080i 30. Is Premiere Elements maybe not going to give me what I want? My Camera is a Sony HDR-FX7
thanks,
Eric

I assume you are working with high definition video in a high definition project preset and burning as a standard DVD. How much video do you have on the DVD... for maximum quality (8Mbps with PE7) you are limited to a little over an hour for a SL DVD and 2 hours for a DL DVD. Any more footage and the bitrate will be reduced lowering the quality. If the quality is still poor you could try downconverting in the cam and capturing as DV-AVI and working in a standard definition project in PE7. Certainly in early versions of Premiere Elements this gave better quality
Other thing to consider is that your standard definition footage played on a DVD (which is a compressed format as well) is never going to look as good as the high definition video played over HDMI from the camcorder.

Getting multiple modules to launch from a single menu. Captivate 7.

Is it possible to create a menu in Captivate that can launch multiple external modules without getting a flash warning in adobe connect? I understand if you go into the global flash settings you can add this to the list of trusted sites. This is something that isn't going to work for our cleint if each user has to go into this menu and manually do this.
Does anyone know a work around for this? I've tried using an html page for the menu because I thought the security issue had to do with a swf file calling to an external swf. I'm not having any luck with this working either. This seems like something that more people should be having issues with because it's a relitively simple request. Is this a global or an Adobe Connect issue? Anyone?

You are correct that trying to get end users to configure Flash security settings is not a viable solution.
If you're getting a Flash security warning message then the issue is that Flash thinks you are crossing over to grab content from a different domain than the calling file. This problem doesn't usually crop up when all files are being served from a web server.
What happens if you test taking all of the files involved and uploading them to a web server? Do they work then?

How to download multiple versions of iTunes from a single computer?

Is there an Apple ftp or other site where any current version of iTunes can be downloaded? I have a 32 bit Windows computer that can't do downloads, so I have to use another computer to download iTunes. If I try to download from a Mac it only offers the Mac version and my other Windows computer only offers the 64 bit version because it is 64 bit. I could not find any link on the pages to download other versions of iTunes. If I disable javascript I can see options to download all the versions but then the download button does not work. So if anyone knows of a direct link to the different versions of iTunes and Quicktime, I would love to know what it is so I can get the updates I need.

See the further information area of Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for direct download links for iTunes. iTunes no longer needs QuickTime so you could simply uninstall it. Otherwise this should do it: QuickTimeInstaller.exe (V7.7.5).

IE, clicking on or copy-pasting "http://www.google.com&http://www.aol.com" in the navigation bar would open two separate tabs or windows, one that shows www.google.com and one that shows www.aol.com.

Yes, see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Location+bar+search

Import multiple Articulate Engage interactions to a single CP4 project

Hi
This question is about importing Articulate Engage interactions into a CP4 project. I have searched the forum and can't find a specific answer to this. Any feedback would be really helpful.
-> I already know how to import 1 single Engage interaction into CP4, insert as an animation onto a slide, and have it play perfectly in published SWF output.
My issue is: How do have multiple Engage interactions in the one CP4 project, when Engage always gives the published Engage interaction and all its supporting files/folders the same file name (I.e. "engage.swf" file and "engage_content folder"?
If, for eg I want ot have 3 Engage interactions in the CP4 project, is it ok to just rename each published Engage interaction differently, prior to inserting the interaction as an animation to the CP4 slide?
Does anyone know if this will work, or if there is another solution?
Thanks in advance!

How to automate multiple output file names from a single input image?

I have about 100 eps cmyk 4000 pixel wide images to process daily. The website needs several jpeg editions of the same image: 1000 pixel wide, 850 pixel wide, and 80 pixel wide.
Question:
Can I load the single source and save three differently named outputs through a single droplet?
I was hoping for an Automation -> Batch answer, but I am a programmer. I haven't touched ExtendScript nor scripted anything in CS, but I can certainly read about it. Any examples I can download or references to methods that would do a "Save As" very similar to the Jpeg Save For Web? Any links would be helpful.

You will find many examples at ps-scripts.com

Provisioning multiple AD Groups from a Single Privilege

Experts,
We're encountering a situation here when we provision to multiple Active Directory groups from a single IDM Role.
The scenario is this:
We have a workflow that has multiple conditional and switch tasks that result in the provisioning of users to Active Directory 2008 (mixed mode) Our workflow uses the provisioning framework and all users have been granted the ONLY privilege for the system.
The workflow will result in adding the users to multiple AD groups sometimes two AD groups that are associated with a single IDM role. The first assignment always works, the second does simply does not occur, no entry in the system or job log although IDM does show that the role has been assigned with an 'OK' status.
We've accomplished a workaround by redesigning the workflow so that only single roles are assigned at a time and using chain result OK links to move from one provisioning activity to another, but frankly, we are unsatisfied with this. IDM should be handling this much better through
I'm wondering if we have a pending value floating out there and we should just be applying the pending value at the end of every AD group add.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Matt,
In your post you mention "I'm wondering if we have a pending value floating out there and we should just be applying the pending value at the end of every AD group add"... I'm faced with a similar issue were I'm left pending values for privileges after the group is assigned.
I've imported the AD groups as privileges. I assign them without issue. But when I review the assignments I can see that each corresponding privilege assignment now has a pending value. I can not remove the privilege from the user at this point.
Have you seen this before? Any suggestions on how I can clean this up. BTW, I'm using the SAP PF basically unchanged...
Thanks!
