Organizing by "time" from two different cameras?

In LR I know one can take say 1000 images that were shot by two different photographers and then adjust or set it to arrange all the images by time taken- thus not file name.
Is there a way to do this in Aperture 3?

Yes.
Or you can arrange them by 10 other criteria, ascending and descending.

I would like to import two different cf cards from two different cameras into the same project/folder and have them be in order of the times they were taken, is there a trick?

I would like to import two different cf cards from two different cameras into the same project/folder and have them be in the order of the times they were taken, any ideas on how to do this?

Just import them normally and sort the project by date. They will fall into place. If you tried this and it isn;t happening then make sure the data and times on the two cameras are identical and make sure you are sorting by date and time and nothing else.

Lightroom not merging and sorting images from two different cameras - help please !!

Hi guys,
I need some help here. I've just imported a few thousands of images form two different cameras, however Lightroom simply sorts them by camera only. (i.e.. images from the first camera, all sorted by capture time, then come images form the second camera.)
The cameras are the same brand and model, times are synchronised, but the images refuse to merge and sort. I've tried putting them in the same folder and importing, but that doesn't do it either. I've been doing this for years and it all worked fine, till today. Does anyone know whats causing this, and how I can fix it?
Thanks in anticipation.

Hi John,
View > Sort > Capture Time is checked, The cameras are in sync down to the second, and images from both have been merging and sorting fine for over two years, till today. Sort order is all set to capture time in all modes and views, but its still sorting first by camera.

Importing from two different cameras

I have been using iphoto for years with my Canon G5. I recently purchased a Canon SD750. When I import the photos from the SD750 it does not show up in the iphoto library, it only shows up in the "last roll" folder. How do I get the photos from the SD750 into the library folder along with the hundreds of photos imported from the G5? Do I need to reset the file names in the SD750 photos? Thanks.

iPhoto can easily handle multiple photos with the same filenames. Since new imports are placed in a new Film Roll, the filenames can be the same. The film roll is part of the file's path, and when the paths differ, the files can be named the same. If you place a new photo into the same roll with a photo of the same filename, then the new one's name will be appended with a "_2" at the end of the filename. You don't have to worry about changing the naming settings of your camera.
it's the first thing it prompts me to do when I first turn the camera on...
If it has asked you to set the time more than once, then you should replace (or install) the little watch battery that came with the camera. It should retain the time setting for 3 to 5 years, even if your camera's main batteries become drained.
Regards.

How to edit footage in the same sequence from two different cameras: 1) Standard Def 4:3 aspect ratio, and 2) Standard Def shot 16:9, anamorphic?

What can I say. We blew the shoot. His high-end Sony camera - std def at 4:3 aspect ratio.
My camera - the little Panasonic DVX100, set to anamorphic, so 16:9 aspect ratio.
I have to edit this footage together in the same sequence. Obviously, I'm getting prompts to change the sequence settings every time I try to move footage onto the timeline.
Alternatively, would someone just thunk me in the head.
I'm sad about this. I can't believe it happened.

What is the ouput - standard 4:3 DV?
If so, put a clip of the 4:3 material into a timeline and accept the offer to conform the timeline to that material. Then, any of the 16:9 material will be part of that settings - however - you will want to go into the DISTORT settings in the Viewer to alter the material so that the image extends beyond the sides (aka a center cut). It has been a long time since I've done this but I remember the number is something like 33 (or -33).

Importing and editing footage with two different cameras

I am editing a film that has footage caught and imported from two different cameras. Some of the footage is from a handheld HD camera that I have worked with before and use an "Easy Setup of Apple Intermediate Codec, 29.97 fps, HDV Apple Intermediate Codec 1080i60." I want to add some video footage that I shot with my Canon Rebel t2i. I searched a number of threads and concluded that when working with a project shot with the t2i, I should have the the Easy Setup be "HD, 29.97fps, DVCPRO HD 1080p30" (side question: is this correct?). My question is when starting a project where I will be using footage from both cameras, what Easy Setup should I use and is there anything else I should keep in mind?

Shane-- Thanks for the willingness to help. I am in Helena, but travel all over the state for work--I am a fly fishing and bird hunting guide who likes to do some amateur filming and editing on the side. Love Missoula, Bozeman, Flathead area, etc! And since you are willing to be so helpful, I guess I should start with a go Cats!
I am brand new to FCP, having previously worked a fair amount with FCE4. I actually do have FCP 7 and work with it on my Macbook Pro. My handheld camera is a JVC Everio that captures in AVCHD (1920x1080). I had my Easy Setup in FCE4 as Apple Intermediate Codec. If I use footage from this camera in FCP7, should I continue to do this?
So not only am I new to FCP7, but I just bought the T2i and really am not totally sure what I am doing yet. I just got the Canon EOS Movie Plug-in and modified it according to some threads I read so that it works for the T2i. I also found directions on the Canon website on the proper way to Log and Transfer for T2i footage (side question: can I dump the files off my T2i onto an external HD and then Log and Transfer them into FCP7 from the external, and is there anything I need to know about when doing this?)
So now that you know that I am very knew to FCP7 and the T2i, maybe I should start from scratch. When I log and transfer, what format should I use when I transcode? ProRes 442? And then, however you suggest I should transcode, what should my Easy Setup look like for footage from the T2i?
Wow, if you are still reading at this point, and I haven't exhausted you with all of my questions and naivety, my final question is...once I have become comfortable with importing and editing footage from the T2i, what should I do if I want to log and transfer and then edit footage from both cameras? Do I need to change the Easy Setup? Do I need to make other changes?
Thanks again in advance for all of your help and patience!!!

Lightroom and two different camera types

I can import CR2 files from EOS 5D Mark II but not the ones from EOS 600d. Is it possible that Lightroom is not importing CR2 files from two different cameras?
I use the latest version.
Many thanks!

Is it possible that Lightroom is not importing CR2 files from two different cameras?
Yes, it is possible.
Can you tell us what happens when you try to import? If you get an error message, please quote it word-for-word.
I use the latest version.
We don't know what you mean by that. What is the version number of Lightroom?

Setting Up a New Mac From Two Different Time Machine Back-ups?

Greetings Apple People,
I am planning on getting a new iMac. Right now my wife I are still using our separate MacBooks from college. Both of them have Time Machine back-ups. We would like to setup our new iMac to have two different users. Is it possible to setup each of the users on the new iMac from our respective Time Machine back-ups?
I know you can do this seamlessly with one Time Machine back-up, but can you do it from two different back-ups, essentially merging the two, while keeping the separate user profiles?
Thanks!

Follow the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide using one computer as the source on first boot. Then, hook up the second computer and use the Migration Assistant to transfer the second user account and nothing else. Don't use the TM backup because it's much slower doing it that way than directly from each machine.

In most cases, you can't use a Debit card anymore. So, either redeem an iTunes gift card or use a credit card.

" When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
Correct.
" How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer? "
Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

HT204053 can I purchase from two different stores ie store in New Zealand and Store in Australia and how do I sync updates on applications? Do I have to switch ID's in my settings each time or is there an easier way.

can I purchase from two different stores ie store in New Zealand and Store in Australia and how do I sync updates on applications purchased from either store? Do I have to switch ID's in my settings each time or is there an easier way. The trouble is I set up my appleid in new Zealand and so all icloud and itunes and app stores are under New Zealand Apple ID I have since moved to Australia. Im a real beginner at this stuff so bare with me pse.

I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job). What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software. (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.) The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance. I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers. When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install. We did! But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

How to schedule two jobs from two different work repository at a time?

Hi All,
I have a scenario where I want to schedule two jobs at a time from two work repository.
Explanation:
Master Repository-A
Work Rep-B
Work Rep-C
Now I need to schedule two scenario one from Work rep B and other from Work Rep-C
As we know that odiparams batch file contains the connection details and at one time it can hold only one work repository name.
Odiparams data:
rem Repository Connection Information
rem
set ODI_SECU_DRIVER=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
set ODI_SECU_URL=jdbc:jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.10.10.10:1521:orcl
set ODI_SECU_USER=odi_snpm
set ODI_SECU_ENCODED_PASS=aYyHZZCrzk5SjQ9rPOIUHp
set ODI_SECU_WORK_REP=*ODI_LOCALDEV_WRKREP*
set ODI_USER=SUPERVISOR
set ODI_ENCODED_PASS=LELKIELGLJMDLKMGHEHJDBGBGFDGGH
Scheduler agent will pick this information from the odiparams file and update the schedule.
So If I want to schedule two job, how it is possible?
I tried all possible things but didn't get the proper solution?
Edited by: user10765509 on Jul 21, 2010 4:58 AM

You can do it in the following way
1. copy/paste the original odiparams.bat file
2. give it a name say odiparams_a.bat
3. specify the work repository A related information in odiparams_a.bat
4. Make another copy of odiparams.bat file
5. give it a name say odiparams_b.bat
6 specify the work repository B related information in odiparams_b.bat
7. now make 2 copies of agentscheduler.bat give the name as follows
agentscheduler_a.bat and agentscheduler_b.bat
8. edit agentscheduler_a.bat and change
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams.bat"
with
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams_a.bat"
9. edit agentscheduler_b.bat and change
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams.bat"
with
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams_b.bat"
10. now start two scheduler agent by calling agentscheduler_a.bat and agentscheduler_b.bat
Thanks,

How do I edit together two different camera angles in iMovie '11?

I've just started using iMovie '11 to put together a little concert footage of my band. I've got two videos of the same concert from two different angles. One is in front of the band and one is next to the drums. Obviously, the video next to the drums has louder audio. Is there a way I can edit these to videos together with iMovie '11 and mix together the audio as well?

If you do a lot of this you may want to try Final Cut Pro X. However, it is quite possible in iMovie. In FCP X, there are tools for automatically aligning the clips from the various cameras and audio sources, and it is fairly straightforward to then cut between cameras as part of a compound clip.
Here is how I did it in iMovie.
I recently did this for a video of my niece's senior voice recital. (Video is below)
The key is to use the Cutaway feature of iMovie. If you are not familiar with Cutaway, here is a good tutorial from Ken Stone.
I had three audio possibilities. A CD recording, the side camera audio track, and the back camera audio track. I decided to use the side camera audio track with heavy use of muted cutaways from the back camera. So I used the side camera as my base clips, and used the back camera as the cutaway clips. I decided the CD recording had too much noise even after fixing in Audacity. And the back camera audio track was OK but had too much coughing and noise.
Here are tips for getting it lined up perfectly.
1) In iMovie/Preferences make sure that you check "Display Time as hh:mm:ss:frames" so you can edit to the frame level. (Also, select "Show Advanced Tools so you get the Cutaway feature)
2) In the iMovie Project View, set the thumbnail slider to 1/2 second so you have a great deal of control.
3) Initially, leave the volume at 100% on the Cutaway track, so that both tracks are playing. You can hear when they are off.
4) Click the "Waveforms" button in the Project view, so you get a visual cue of how to line up the tracks.
5) Between the audible cues and the visual cues, you can nudge the cutaway back and forth one frame at a time by dragging until you have it perfect.
6) When it is lined up to your satisfaction, set the volume slider of the Cutaway track to zero, and turn off the waveforms. You can also move the thumbnail slider back to 5 seconds or so.
7) For some of the fine work, I switched to the "single row timeline view". This slows you down a bit, but lets you see the waveforms more clearly.
8) I made heavy use of the iMovie Comment Marker feature. I watched the whole base video/audio track and inserted comment markers at the points where I wanted the Cutaway to begin and end. For example, a comment might say "Insert Cutaway 1". I would usually time the cutaway so it started at a distinct audio event, such as when the piano start. This comment marker made it easy to drag my cutaway to a point that was approximately correct.
9) If you need to do a lot of cutaways, I find that it helps to use the SPLIT CLIP command in your project. This way you can have a single cutaway per clip, and this makes it easier to manage and is less processor and memory intensive for iMovie. I would use the comments to mark the entry and exit points of the cutaway as described above. I would then select that portion of the clip that included these markers plus a little more, so that a yellow border is around the selection. Then right-click/SPLIT CLIP (or CLIP/SPLIT CLIP in the top menu). This does not physically splt the clip within the Event. It only virtually splits the clip in the project.

Two different Cameras premiere E4 questions

Please help! I recorded my friends band and I used two different cameras to do the recording. One stationary recorded a wide shot of the band and the other mobile I had with me. I used the mobile one to do closeups then used the audio and video from the wide shot and did clips of just the lined up video of the mobile one. It looks great! So what is the problem. Well a couple things, I am using Premiere Elements 4. How do I save this project at a high resolution for the web (YouTube) also how do I save it to burn it to DVD?
Finally the really tricky question, the one camera was shot in widescreen format the other full screen. I would like to be able to crop and enlarge the full to make it a wide. I don't want to make the wide a full if I don't have to, because it will crop out band members.
(I don't really understand the whole picture/pixel/ratio thing)
Keep in mind this was my first shot at something like this I am trying to get down the actual technical process and I have Ideas of how to approach the shooting aspect in the future to improve it. Any input would help. Here is the link to what I have uploaded so far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfzjeHwKf38 I don't get why it is so small with crappy resolution, in premiere Elements it looks good. And here are the specs on the cameras:

For YouTube settings, I'd go to the FAQ sub-forum, found on the right-hand side of the main forum page. There are suggestions there. Note: YouTube will re-encode whatever you upload, and they change their requirements monthly, if not sooner.
Now for the Widescreen vs Standard question. I assume that you used WideScreen, when you set up your Project. Is that correct?
First thing that I would look at would be to use Interpret Footage for the Standard Clips. Do one first, and choose 16:9 in Interpret Footage. How does this look? Only you can make that call.
If the band looks too fat, then we'll move on to Plan B. Go to one of your Standard Clips, and Select it. Go to Effects, and then Edit Effects. Look for the fixed Effect>Motion. Twirl it open and then go to Scale. Increase this, until the Frame fills the width of the Frame. This will also effectively Crop the vertical. If you need to alter how that Crop is seen, go to Effect>Motion>Position, and move the Frame up, or down to suit.
Good luck,
Hunt

Report which reads data from two different systems

Hi experts!
By any chance, would be possible to create a report which is able to read from two different cubes and two different systems at the same time?
Kind regards.

Good afternoon Raul,
It should be possible to create a multiprovider on the two different cubes from the two sources
systems and report on this.
Best Regards,
