Must I render everytime I make a minor change?

Everytime I move a clip, add a clip, change the length of a clip, add a transition....anything at all I have to "render" only that needs render in order to view the changes....this is sooo time consuming as the movie becomes longer...there is a lot of tweaking going on to matchup audio with titles and video...and yes I am using soundtrack and livetype to streamline this process but I am reaching the point where many edits are just faster to perform in FCE...there must be a way to make minor changes without having to re-render each time in order to view the changes made.

Not sure what you're starting with, but I had this problem once when I imported QuickTime movies from a friend's camera. They were encoded as MPEG4s. Final Cut let me import them, but required constant renders to make any changes. I converted to Apple Intermediate Codec in MPEG Streamclip and reimported, and all was well after that.

  • Must I render everytime I change something??

    I'm using iMovie to import all my video and FCE as a secondary app. Simply because imovie is so easy for fast and simple web movie making, and FCE is so extensive. However, when I import an event from imovie to FCE to make a 'real' project I have to render it, which takes some painful amount of time, and as soon as I edit anything it all has to be rendered again.
    My question is; is there a way around this? Can I convert the file once so it's compatible with FCE or am I missing something with the rendering thing, or is this simply a stupid way of going about it all?
    any tips would be good. Cheers, John

    it's because Imovie and fce use different formats, Imovie is .dv and fce uses .mov
    If the sequence doesn't match the footage, you'll need to render constantly. not good.
    one way would be to import the imovie file into fce, render then export as self-contained movie (ntsc-dv if your in the states and not doing hdv). Then bring that file into fce and edit away, you won't need to render. You may even find a utility to convert .dv to .mov if you google it.

    I scanned an old image using my Epson NX515 printer, used GIMP to make some minor repairs on the image and printed it out.  I noticed there were a number of evenly spaced thin blue lines across the image, approximately six of them. I opened & printed the image on my PC using PAINT.NET.  No lines appeared. I sent the image to my daughter. She printed it and found no lines. I printed the image using Seahorse on my Mac and the lines still appeared. I used basically the same print settings on Mac and PC.

    did so now, only now I'm getting a slightly different error: could not find udevd no such file or directory. I checked both grub.cfg's and my mkinitcpio.conf and there's no listing for udevd ....which I've never heard of, so I assumed it was a typo?
    For clarification: udev is in the mkinitcpio.
    I'm not sure whether I yet have a good intuition for how you have your machine set up, but I suspect you need to include a cryptdevice flag to the kernel in your grub config. The file isn't found because the kernel doesn't know your root directory needs decrypting first.
    My setup is an LVM over LUKS over LVM sandwich. To boot into my system, the grub.cfg contains the line:
    linux /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/mapper/cryptvg-root cryptdevice=/dev/mapper/vg-crypt:root rootfstype=ext4 pcie_aspm=force acpi_osi=Linux acpi_backlight=vendor i915.i915_enable_rc6=1 i915.i915_enable_fbc=1 i915.lvds_downclock=1 ro
    Now, most of those flags don't have anything to do with your problem, but note the cryptdevice. It tells the kernel it's dealing with an encrypted filesystem sitting in a logical volume called crypt on a volume group called vg. The bit after the colon tells the kernel to associate this encrypted filesystem with /dev/mapper/root.
    As for how to fix your system, I'm afraid I still feel a bit fuzzy about how your LVM and encrypted layers relate to each other, whether you have LVM over LUKS, or LUKS over LVM, or something else. Was there a particular how-to that you followed?

  • FCE: do I have to render EVERYTIME!?

    Hello all,
    I'm new to using Final Cut Express but it seems to me I have to render everytime I edit a video...
    I record with:
    SONY NEX5 Camera
    AVCHD 1080/60i HD movies
    saves as .mp4 format
    using:
    MacBook Pro
    2.4 Intel Core 2 Duo
    4 GB RAM
    what can I do?
    I know I can change the RT to Unlimited but my computer is not fast enough.
    the only other option I have came across is converting the video, but I'm afraid it will distort the quality...
    thanks in advance!!

    Your NEX5 is a still camera that also happens to record video.  It apparently saves video as AVCHD in an MP4 container.  You can't use that directly in FCE.  You need to convert it to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec.  I'd suggest MPEG Streamclip for this purpose.  If that doesn't work then try Clipwrap.
    Also, you need to select an easy setup in FCE that matches the properties of your video (eg 1920x1080i60).   Note that the NEX5's HD and VGA modes will also need to be converted if you want to edit in FCE.

  • "You must supply a password to make this connection" Windows 98 to Macbook

    I have a home network using a wireless router (Linksys Moder BEFW 1154). The network consists of 2 Windows XP Pro, 2 Windows 98 SE, and recently added Macbook.
    My problem: When attempting to access Macbook from either of
    the Windows 98 SE computers, I get an “enter network password" window stating "You must supply a password to make this connection". There is no password, user combo that works. Seems to be a well known problem. I've looked through the MSknowledge base and Googled the problem. It seems that those experiencing the problem were dealing with Windows 2000 or were having trouble getting into and XP machine and there appears to be very limited success involving various workarounds. Nothing involving Macbooks
    I have no problem with any of the Windows machines communicating with each other. The Mac accesses all my
    Windows computers with no problem. I get the password request only when trying go to the MAC from the Windows 98 SEs.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions as to what might the Windows 98 SE computers need or be looking for from the MAC that is causing the problem.
    TIA

  • How to transport Minor changes in BPC 7.0 to other client

    Hi,
    I am very new to BPC and got an ticket to do a minor change in script logic. We are in BPC 7.0.
    I am not sure how I can transport this minor change from Dev to other client.
    My question is:
    1. Do we need to make system offline while making changes to Script logic in BPC Admin or it is required only at the time of collecting transport request in BI using tcode: UJBPCTR?
    It would be kind enough if any one could let me know What are all the activities we need to consider/take care before transporting objects from BPC DEV to BPC QUALITY
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards, Trine

    You only need to take it offline when executing UJBPCTR and when importing in the target system.  The system willl collect all of the appset and transport it, but will do a delta calculation on the target system to determine if any structure changes are required.  The script logic data should simply be overwritten.
    Cheers,
    Rich Heilman

    The new user helped a little but not enough to make the customer happy. I have done a bunch of research over the weekend and I have found there is a little known bug in Apple's ACLs. ACL stands for Access Control List and I have a snippet from a MacFixit that describes the issue:
    "A disappointing aspect of Repair Permissions in Leopard is that it does not deal with ACLs (Access Control Lists), a secondary layer of permissions control laid on top of standard Unix permissions, tentatively introduced in Tiger and actually used for the first time in Leopard. Repair Permissions will announce that it is surprised to discover that a certain folder has an unexpected ACL setting, but it won't do anything about it (in other words, it won't repair that kind of permissions)."
    Anyway it appears to me that if your privileges get hosed in a computer upgrade the only way to really fix the problem is copy all of your data to a second HD and then break out the install DVDs that came with the Mac Pro and do a fresh install and set the user/file-sharing up manually and then copy your data back to the Mac Pro. I did not connect back to the G4 to get the data again, I just copied my many years of correspondence back to the Mac Pro and this time everything works?
    The new user idea did let me manually drop files onto the Mac Pro from connected computers it WOULD NOT let me save files to the Mac Pro from network computers. I usually got a bad path message when I would try and save from Word or TextEdit. I figured I had wasted enough time on this problem and erasing everything and starting over was a better idea.
    Thanks everybody.

  • Minor changes to website

    Hi Everyone,
    This is my first post.  I had a web developer create my photography website, www.craigbanksphoto.com in Flash but he is no longer available to do any more work.
    I need a few minor changes done to my site such as changing the text on the About page and also changing it so that when you view a picture in any of the galleriess the background is completely black, right now it just fades out the text and thumbnails and is not entirely black.
    I have never used Flash before but am pretty good with Photoshop, Illustrator and a little bit of Dreamweaver.  Would these changes be difficult for someone who has never used Flash but can pick things up fairly quickly?  I have all the files for my website, any suggestions where I should look first to make the changes I require.
    Thanks,
    Craig!

    If the site is done using Flash and the elements you wish to change are not dynamically loaded via some external data files (txt or xml files for example), then you need to edit the content via the Flash .fla source file(s) which are used to create the swf files that get used for the site.  Your best bet is to create a copy of all the files so that you have clean copies in case you mess up and open then up and see if you can figure out where to find what you need to change and how to change it.

    Hi Chuck,
    The Error "TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0xd, status code 0x10. Reason: Unable to retrieve registry settings from TCP/IP protocol's 'IPAll' configuration key. The data is invalid" Suggest that there is a problem with the data stored in one
    of the registry keys related to SQL server start up. Although the information provided is not sufficient to pinpoint to a specific issues. Still try the following step open the SQL server configuration manager
    Select SQL server Network Configuration->Protocols for <Your SQLExpress instance Name>
    On the right side double click TCP/IP.Select IPAddresses Tab. Scroll the way down till you file IPALL
    Make sure that there are only a valid TCP/IP Port number is present. Even the leading or trailing whitespaces could make a difference here. Once you have verified that above two conditions are met. Try starting the SQL server instance.
     Also make sure that the TCP/IP port is not being used by any other program.
    You can run the command netstat -aon on the command prompt to see the list of ports being used. Make sure that the port you have specified for SQL server is not listed under the TCP protocols.
    Hope this helps.
