Please help with workflow - iMovie '08 and Panasonic HDC-SD1

My two teenage sons play high school basketball and I've been videotaping their games using our new Panasonic SD1. Picture quality is terrific, but I've been taken aback by how much time it takes to get the footage from the camera into iMovie and then how long it takes to burn a DVD from that iMovie file. I'm hoping I'm doing something wrong and that there's a quicker way to get the job done.
The kids play four periods and I've been stopping and starting the camera in between, so I end up with four separate files on the SD card. Total time is usually an hour and change.
Okay here's the workflow from there:
~ When I get back to my iMac (2.16 Core 2 Duo with 3GB of RAM) I place the SD card in a card reader and import the four files into iMovie from there. Importing the hours' worth of video takes a couple of hours.
~ I then make one project with all four files for export to iTunes so the boys can watch on our Apple TV. Exporting, using the "large" format takes another couple of hours.
~ I then use the same exported file to make a DVD for the coach using iDVD. That process takes more than three hours.
I'd actually like to split out the four quarters of the game into separate menu items on the DVD. My thought was to make each quarter a different iMovie project, but it looks like I can't queue the four exports so I'd have to stay close to the computer to do them individually.
Thanks in advance for the help.
...Barry

If you only have 1 file per quarter, one obvious thing to do would be to edit out the time in between plays, the time-outs, and the like. That is easily done in iMovie.
Having said that, importing (and exporting) in high definition takes time, and your times do not seem unreasonable.

  • Please help with workflow inspired SQL

    Hi everyone, I need some help with a piece of sql I need to create. It will be used in a workflow scenario and is therefore a bit hairy and has some limitations. So here goes..
    I have 2 current tables that will be used in this query. The first is a table used as a supervisor cross reference, and the second will be used for signing authority, or approval authorization. In short...the first table will give you the supervisor for the particular employee or employee in the where clause. This tells us who to route to. The second table has the operators authority level. As an example.... 1, 2, 3, or 4. A 1 could signify that this supervisor can approve for up to $5,000, and a 4 could signify that this person can approve up to $250,000. thats the basic idea.
    So what I need to do in ONE statement is get the requestor's supervisor, and then check his/hers authority level for level 1, 2, 3 or 4. The authority level needed will be passed into the query, so I will have that as well as the requestor. And here is the hard part...... If no rows are returned (the supervisor does not have authority to approve) I need the query to apply the same logic to the next supervisor. In other words, the supervisor's supervisor. Every requestor will have a supervisor. Every supervisor will also have a supervisor....so it goes until we get to the CEO. So the query needs to keep going until it finds a row matching the signing authority.
    So the limitations are......this needs to happen in one SQL query, and this query can only return ONE field!
    Here are some creates and inserts to give you something to work with. Been suffering with this one for a few days so your help is GREATLY appreciated.

    Hi,
    Welcome to the forum!
    Thanks for posting the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements; that's very helpful!
    Whenever you have a question, also post the results you want to get from the sample data your posted.
    Always say what version of Oracle you're suing.
    In the sample data you posted, I only see one row in each table. Does that really give a good picture of the problem? If the problem involves going up the chain of command 1, 2, 3 or more levels, then shouldn't you have a chain of at least 3 people to show the problem and test the results?
    I think what you need is CONNECT BY Query , which works on a table with a parent-child relationship. Given a parent, you can find that ow's children, the children's children, their children, and so on, however many generations there are.
    I don't think I can demonstrate this with your sample data, so I'll use the scott.emp table, whcih you should be able to query.
    The emp table contains a hierarcy of employees, including this data:
    NAME                 EMPNO        MGR        SAL JOB
    KING                  7839                  5000 PRESIDENT
       JONES              7566       7839       2975 MANAGER
          SCOTT           7788       7566       3000 ANALYST
             ADAMS        7876       7788       1100 CLERK
          FORD            7902       7566       3000 ANALYST
             SMITH        7369       7902        800 CLERK
       BLAKE              7698       7839       2850 MANAGER
          ALLEN           7499       7698       1600 SALESMAN
          WARD            7521       7698       1250 SALESMAN
          MARTIN          7654       7698       1250 SALESMAN
          TURNER          7844       7698       1500 SALESMAN
          JAMES           7900       7698        950 CLERK
       CLARK              7782       7839       2450 MANAGER
          MILLER          7934       7782       1300 CLERKThis show, among other things, that the employee with ename='KING' (empno=7839) has no boss.
    JONES (empno=7566) does have a boss (mgr=7839), namely KING.
    SCOTT (empno=7788) has a bos (mgr=7566), who is JONES.
    I got the results above using this CONNECT BY query:
    SELECT     LPAD ( ' '
              , 3 * (LEVEL - 1)
              ) || ename          AS name
    ,     empno
    ,     mgr
    ,     sal
    ,     job
    FROM     scott.emp
    START WITH     mgr     IS NULL
    CONNECT BY     mgr     = PRIOR empno
    ;This is an example of a Top-Down Query , where we start with a parent, then find its children, grandchildren, and so on.
    In your probelm, you want to do a Bottom-Up Query ; given a child, you want to see if its parent has a certain level of authority. If not, you need to look at that parent's parent, and keep going until to either reach someone with the right qualifications, or you reach the end of the chain of command.
    That's similar to this problem: given a set of employees in scott.emp (say, everyone with job='CLERK') we want to find their closest ancestor who has a sal of 3000 or more. Look at the data above: you can see that SMITH is a CLERK, and SMITH'S boss, FORD, has sal=3000, so we want a row of output that shows SMITH and FORD.
    For a different example, looks at MILLER. MILLER's boss, CLARK, only has sal=2450, so we need to look at CLARK's boss, KING.
    One way to do that in a CONNECT BY query is:
    SELECT     CONNECT_BY_ROOT ename     AS subordinate
    ,     ename
    ,     LEVEL - 1          AS steps_apart
    FROM     scott.emp
    WHERE     CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF     = 1
    START WITH     job       = 'CLERK'
    CONNECT BY     empno       = PRIOR mgr
         AND     PRIOR sal < 3000
    ;Output:
    SUBORDINAT ENAME      STEPS_APART
    SMITH      FORD                 1
    ADAMS      SCOTT                1
    JAMES      KING                 2
    MILLER     KING                 2You should be all set to write the query now.
    Just kidding. I'll bet there's a lot of stuff in this message that's new to you. It's all documented in the SQL Language manual:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/index.htm
    If you'd like help, post your version, a more complete set of sample data, and the results you want from that data.
    Explain, with specific examples, how you get the results you posted from the data you posted.
    Do as much of the query as you can, and post your code.

  • Please help with correcting calling class and method errors

    Hi All,
    I have created a game (like battleship) for 2 tanks. I can't seem to connect the classes and methods to get the values for the last die face rolled; last direction rolled on a 4 headed dice; the x and y position for each tank; the armour value and the firePower (or hit value) to print.

  • Please help with the FOR loop and the array..

    I was trying to place some words in the Movie Clip
    "TextPanel" and set a
    random position to each of them.
    But it's not working.
    1) I created a Movie Clip "word" and inside that MC I created
    a text field
    and gave it an identifier "textFiled".
    2) The linkage name for Movie Clip "word" I set to "word".
    3) In the actionscript I created an Array called "aWords".
    4) Then I created a FOR loop that should
    place (attach) Movie Clips "word0", "word1", "word2" and
    "word3" to the
    movie clip TextPanel, and set the textField text for each of
    them to the
    text from the Array.
    But the script attaches 4 Movie Clips with a name
    "Undefined", instead of 4
    different names (from the Array).
    What is wrong with this script?
    var aWords:Array = [apple,banana,orange,mango];
    for(i=0;i<aWords.length;i++){
    var v = TextPanel.attachMovie("word","word"+i,i);
    v.textFiled.text = aWords
    v._x = randomNumber(0,Stage.width);
    v._y = randomNumber(0,Stage.height);
    Thanks in advance

    But in my Post I already wrote v.textFiled.text = aWords
    so I don't understand what were you correcting..
    And one more:
    I have tested it by changing the
    v.textFiled.text = aWords; to v.textFiled.text = "some
    word";
    and it's working fine.
    So there is something wrong with the Array element, and I
    don't know why..

  • IMovie 08 and Panasonic HDC-SD5 Camera

    Hi Folks I have a Mac (lol), i have a Panasonic High Definition Camera and i have a problem. I connect the camera, i import the clip on my macintosh hd and i create my dvd with iDVD. But when I see my dvd i see that the video is ginned, with a very low quality. Why???
    Info: Mac OS X 10.5.6 on MacBook 3.1 with 2.2 GHz Intel Core Duo processor, 2 Gb of RAM and Intel GMA X3100 graphic card.
    Panasonic HDC-SD5 with 3CCD and high resolution (Full HD 1920x1080). It recorded with the AVCHD format.
    Thank you!!

    If you have a PC and the generic software that comes with the camera you can as well.
    If iMovie 08 can import high definition video can it not output it on its own as AVCHD (AVC/H.264 - MPEG4) to DVD?

  • Please help with restoring different apps and their data between 2 iPads

    I just bought a new iPad Air 2 . I currently have 2 iPads, 1st gen and iPad 2nd, each with its own set of apps and their data. I backed up each older iPad manually as  a full backup. I created a separate library for one of them when doing this. Now I want to transfer iPad 1st gen apps and data to iPad 2nd, so I reset iPad 2nd to factory and then restored from the manual back up of the iPad 1st gen and it seems to work fine. Before that I had backed up iPad 2nd's current data. So now I now I want to transfer the iPad 2nd apps and data to the new iPad Air. I selected the backup by the time stamp that I had backed up iPad 2nd. I didn't know how to rename each iPad to something unique. It restored from backup, but it's all the apps and data from my iPad 1st gen backup, not iPad 2nd.
    I'm utterly confused. Even when I have the separate iTunes library open it shows all the manual backups I performed, so it's not truly a separate library. Do I need to manually install/remove the various apps on the newer iPad?

    If you only have 1 file per quarter, one obvious thing to do would be to edit out the time in between plays, the time-outs, and the like. That is easily done in iMovie.
    Having said that, importing (and exporting) in high definition takes time, and your times do not seem unreasonable.

  • Please help with Logic Express 7 and using DFH plugin!

    Hey guys, I'm really in a tight spot here as I have no idea how to get my setup working properly. I recently bought an entirely new Imac, Logic Express 7, and a drum plugin called Drumkit From **** Superior (VSTi I believe is the type of plugin they call it). It is supposed to be compatable but I see no way to get it to show up as a plugin. I tried some other programs and it shows up as a plugin and I'm able to get into the interface, but I can't in LE7.
    It is supposed to be compatable as a "rewire" plugin or something like that, but I'm not too sure how to approach that differently, both manuals are very vague.
    Basically, I'm wondering:
    1. How would I go about getting Drumkit From **** Superior to show up as a "plugin" (and what it would be under) if I have to use it a "rewire"?
    2. If I could get it running as a plugin, how would I go about programming a drum part using that "drumkit" in Logic Express?
    Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated.
    -Daniel

    It's a tough one man, I'm actually wanting to go for EZdrummer which I think comes under the same umbrealla as DFH, the patch will come to let you upgrade to intel hopefully by September so hold onto that plug in as I think it'll be worth it in the long run. In the mean time do you have any other options to make beats?
    I use Reason 3.0, I sequence my beats using Reason Drum Kits 2.0 and export them as WAV or AIFF files into Logic, do you have anything similar that you can do? write you beats else where and import into Logic?

  • IMovie 11 and Panasonic HDC-SD90. won't recognise camera

    I am trying to import AVCHD for the first time from this camera.
    All I get is No Camera Connected.... the instructions were followed, connect USB lead, turn camera on and "import from camera". I have previously copied the files from the SDHC cards to the Mac and have tried to import also from there into iMovie with no success, all I get is a list of files with 60p in a "red no entry type circle" and the play and import greyed out. Camera is connected to mains power.
    The camera is supported in iMovie.
    Don't know what to do !!
    Thanks

    One other thought. Are you shooting 60P? iMovie does not support 60P. You will want to shoot 30P or 60i to work with iMovie.
    You may need to find some external software that can convert 60P to 30P.
    If you feel adventurous, some folks have hacked iMovie to make it work for 60P. Do so at your own risk.
    For example.

  • My iMovie keeps crashing, its my final year Uni project and its in on Monday... please help!, My iMovie keeps crashing, its my final year Uni project and its in on Monday... please help!

    Please please help me ! iMovie keeps crashing everytime I try to work on a project, it has happened before, so I deleted everything and it seemed to work but now its back, this is my final year Uni project and its in on Monday ... any help would be soooo appreciated !!

    With regard to the HD Questions:
    1.- You can copy the entire 40GB hard drive main folder (if you cam is a HG-10, it will be named "AVCHD"), and that way you have the original video stored wherever you want. In the future, you can get that folder from a hard drive or mounted as a disk image, and iM08 will think it is a camcorder and let you import again.
    2.- AVCHD gets converted to Apple Intermediate Coded (AIC) because AVCHD is not meant for "editing", but for storage and transfer. Now on AIC you can edit frame-specific, without killing your CPU. It is "good" that it gets converted.
    3.- Once you have processeD with iM08, and exported into AppleTV, you could erase everything, including the event, project, and appleTV file from your computer, as long as the file is in the actual AppleTV set-top box, and you do not erase it from there while syncing, you should be able to see it. That way you will save storage/disk space, because you are right, the AIC file is very large.
    However: You must understand, that if you need to recreate this AppleTV final file, you will have to start over, getting it from the Copied hard drive, import into iM08, create the project, and export to AppleTV, AGAIN, so you pick which one you erase, based on how much you need this file.
    As per you SD question, I do not use DV format, so I AIN'T GOT NO IDEA.

  • Please help with "You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported." I have seen other responses on this but am not a techie and would not know how to start with that solution.

    Please help with the message I am receving on startup ""You can't open the application NovamediaDiskSupressor because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I have read some of the replies in the Apple Support Communities, but as I am no techie, I would have no idea how I would implement that solution.
    Please help with what I need to type, how, where, etc.
    Many thanks

    I am afraid there is no solution.
    PowerPC refers to the processing chip used by Apple before they transferred to Intel chips. They are very different, and applications written only for PPC Macs cannot work on a Mac running Lion.
    You could contact the developers to see if they have an updated version in the pipeline.

  • I just bought a new iPhone and accidentally backed it up with my old iPhone backup, I do not want this. I lost everything on my new phone and I need it back. PLEASE HELP! This includes pictures and texts, etc.

    I just bought a new iPhone and accidentally backed it up with my old iPhone backup, I do not want this. I lost everything on my new phone and I need it back. PLEASE HELP! This includes pictures and texts, etc.

    So just to be clear, when you say "just bought" how long ago was that? Is it on this new iPhone that you had pictures, texts, etc that you want? Were you backing up to iCloud or onto iTunes?
    This may not help for everything but if you go to iCloud.com and log in, are you able to find your pictures there?
