Problem using the Send to motion item in FCP 5

Everytime I send a clip from my timeline in FCP to Motion 2 the clip's aspect ratio gets changed. I am using the Apple Intermediate Codec HDV 1080|60. My preset in Motion is to HDV 1080|60.
It appears that the clip is being stretched along the horizontal axis (it is wider when brought into Motion this way).
Help!!
Thanks in advance
G5 Quad Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2 GB RAM, Apple 30" Display

I am having the same kind of problem as I export fro fcp to motion and then back, it looses the anamorphic flag and I reset it, however, even after doing that my clip does not correct itself. I also tried exporting the clip to quicktime movie and importing it to fcp, but even then it does not maintain the aspect ratio of my project. Could there be an underlying bug under the hood, or is there a sequence of steps to properly do this?
Thanks

Web Analysis Problem using the "Send to Excel" service

I built reports using WebAnalysis 9.3.0.
I attached the "Send to Excel" service button to my report. I am using a combination of Excel 2003 & 2007.
I have the following settings in my webanalysis.properties file:
MaxDataCellLimit=200000
XLExportMaxRows=60000
XLExportMaxColumns=200
My problem is when I try to use the "Send to Excel" button. For "small" reports Excel opens quickly with my report information. Small being around 1,000 rows and 20 columns. If I add more rows, say another 400 or so - Excel never opens with my report information. Web Analysis sits there for about 5 minutes or so and does nothing. After that I can start using WA again - but no report in Excel.
I get the same result by right clicking on the report in WA Studio and selecting "Export Data..."
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Hyperion support suggested I try adding the Excel path to my webanalysis.properties file
So I now have:
ExcelPath=D:\\Progra~1\Micros~1\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe;C:\\Progra~1\Micros~2\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe
MaxDataCellLimit=200000
XLExportMaxRows=60000
XLExportMaxColumns=200
ResolveDimSetAliases=false
Where D:\\Progra~1\Micros~1\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe is the path to Excel as installed on the server where WA Studio is installed.
And C:\\Progra~1\Micros~2\\OFFICE11\\Excel.exe is the path to Excel as installed on my laptop.
This did not correct my problem.
Am I using the ExcelPath=.... correctly?
I was not sure this would work since WA Studio successfully starts Excel for "smaller" reports. But I tried it anyway.
Any ideas?

Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Colour Engine??

When I am playing back a set of recorded actions, I receive a message that says "Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Colour Engine". This occurs after I copy a part of an image to paste it onto a new file. It occurs during the "Make" part(making a new file) and I was just wondering how to fix it.

It's a known (but esoteric) bug in Photoshop CS5 and earlier, seen with grayscale images. It used to crash utterly, but after I reported it I think they patched Photoshop 12.0.something to avoid the crash. However, the step still fails when you make a new grayscale image in an action.
I saw it because I created an action to paste the clipboard into new document, all in one motion. It virtually always works as long as I have a colored image in the clipboard. But not grayscale.
One workaround, which is not particularly convenient, is to turn on prompting for the Make new image step. I haven't used this workaround for a while, but it used to be that if you confirmed the "File New" operation manually it would continue and work. I don't know if the workaround is still valid.

Problems using the Program Monitor

Dear Premiere users,
I recently bought Adobe Premiere CS3 and i'm having problems using the Program Monitor.
I cant see anything off screen. It just wont show anything if its outside the boundaries of the screen. I can adjust the zoom level but that wont change anything even if i set it to full screen.
Another problem I'm having is that it wont show motion paths or clip handles. Even if I make a motion path in the Effects Control window it wont show the path in the Program Monitor.
I really appreciate any advice on this because it drives me crazy. I already tried installing it again but that wont solve the problem.
Thanks in advance.
Greetings,
Peter

First of all I hope you are being sarcastic Jim. Sorry for being not that clear but I'm not stupid :).
Craig Howard is right. I thought that the Program Monitor was similarly to AEFX. But I suppose I was wrong on this one? So you cant get something to display outside the image area? If I place a clip outside the project dimension it just disappears in the Program Monitor.
And about the motion paths. I thought I read in the Premiere help files that they do show up in the Program Monitor. The topic says: "Adjust position, scale, and rotation" or "Animate motion in the Program Monitor ". There are pictures over there that show clip handles and motion paths in the Program Monitor. Clicking the effect wont do anything for me. Its like my video driver cant get them to show or something.
Edit: I found a tutorial here:
http://digitalproducer.digitalmedianet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=26660&afterinter=tr ue
They are dragging frames off screen and are using the handles and borders around the frame to adjust them. So I guess it should be possible, but how?
Thanks for the help.

Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Color Engine

Hi all
This bizarrely started this morning - completely out of the blue - and I've no idea why.
Setup: Mac 10.8.2 / Creative Suite Premium PhotoShop CS5 extended (patched to 12.04)
Am working on images exported from LightRoom 4 (16bit A3 Pro Photo RGB PSDs) in PhotoShop CS5.
As part of my image grading process I have a PhotoShop Action that does the following: copy layer to new document (document respects all of copied layer settings) > Image > Adjustments > HDR toning > apply a certain HDR preset > copy to resultant image back to original doc > set opacity as 40%.
Totally out of the blue, after having this action for about 2 months, this morning I start getting a warning dialog of "Could not complete the command because of a problem using the Adobe Color Engine" and the action fails. The failure seems to take place at the 'make document' part of the action and seems to somehow be related to the contents of the clipboard.
I've tried trashing and re-creating the action. It works first time out fine and then - on the next image - errors again.
At present I can only safely carry out the work 'manually' by completing all the actions myself.
I can think of no settings that have changed and the OS hasn't been updated in a while.
I have found one other thread on a similar problem in PhotoShop Elements, but no definitive solution.
Any help appreciated as I have a shedload of stuff to process.
Best wishes
TP

OK: trash of prefs didn't work. Tried thrice. Re-created orig action. same problem.
BUT!
Your 'Image > Duplicate' suggestion does seem to work. If I use that in a new action as the method for creating the HDR version doc (instead of 'Select > Copy > New > Paste), it seems to work.
Will try that out this afternoon, but for now: WIN!
Many thanks for the suggestion!

Why can't I use the function of menu item 'issue delivery output'?

why can't I use the function of menu item 'issue delivery output' in main screen of delivery note?
And at the same time I can't use the button of printing in main screen of delivery note.
the main screen of delivery note I mean above is in screen of maintaining shipping data instand of the first screen of VL02N.
TKS in advance.

Hi,
Because delivery will be having header level output and item level output. So if u try to print through main screen then system will not know whether it is header related or item related. That is the reason it is only print output at header level or item level but not in main screen.
I think u may have doubt like how billin will be issued output through Main screen. Because for billing both header and item level data are same..

Problem using the FederatedSearch / Result set empty

Hello, 
 
I've the following problem using the FederatedSearch: 
In my KM-Folder I've two documents. 
I created a simple search AbstractPortalComponent to search in the special KM-Folder. 
If the query is "*" I will get the right number of documents. 
But If I will access them the iterator is empty... 
Please see the code below: 
 
Best regards 
Klaus 
 
 
IIndexService indexService = (IIndexService) ResourceFactory.getInstance().getServiceFactory().getService(IServiceTypesConst.INDEX_SERVICE); 
 
SearchQueryListBuilder sqb = new SearchQueryListBuilder(); 
 
sqb.setSearchTerm(query); 
IQueryEntryList qel = sqb.buildSearchQueryList(); 
RidList ridList = new RidList(); 
ridList.add(RID.getRID(OR_KM_ROOT_PATH + "/" + OR_KM_CURRENT_PATH)); 
ridList.add(RID.getRID(OR_KM_ROOT_PATH + "/" + OR_KM_ARCHIVE_PATH)); 
IResourceContext resourceContext = new ResourceContext(user); 
IFederatedSearch federatedSearch = (IFederatedSearch) indexService.getObjectInstance(IWcmIndexConst.FEDERATED_SEARCH_INSTANCE); 
IFederatedSearch search = (IFederatedSearch) indexService.getObjectInstance(IWcmIndexConst.FEDERATED_SEARCH_INSTANCE); 
ISearchSession session = federatedSearch.searchWithSession(qel, ridList, resourceContext, null, null); 
response.write("-"+session.getTotalNumberResultKeys()); ### writes 2-ok- 
response.write("- "+session.getNumberResultKeys()); ### writes 2-ok- 
ISearchResultList sresults = session.getSearchResults(1,session.getTotalNumberResultKeys()); 
 
ISearchResultListIterator iter = sresults.listIterator(); 
response.write("> "iter.hasNext()" "); ### writes "false"!???
 
while (iter.hasNext()) 
{ 
... 
} 

The plan is to be running with more than just two sites (though at the moment I am testing with only two).
What happens is a client comes on-line and requests a list of sites from a router. It then picks one of the sites from the list and adds that as a replication site in the repmgr.
It then goes about opening up the database and doing some other bookeeping. Finally we start the replication manager and once the NEWMASTER event is recieved a sync is done.
So while this DELAYCLIENT/rep_sync is a bit overkill for the two-site test I am doing now, the design I am working towards will be a multi-site setup.

Problem using the Write to SGL VI and Read from SGL VI

Hello Sir, I have a problem using the Write to SGL VI. When I am trying to write the captured data using DAQ board to a SGL file, I am unable to store the data as desired. There might be some problem with the VI which I am using to write the data to SGL file. I am not able to figure out the minor problem I am facing. I am attaching a zip file which contains five files.
1) Acquire_Current_Binary_Exp.vi -> This is the VI which I used to store my data using Write to SGL file.
2) Retrive_BINARY_Data.vi -> This is the VI which I used to Read from SGL file and plot it
3) Binary_Capture -> This is the captured data using (1) which can be plotted using (2) and what I observed is the plot is different and also the time scare is not as expected.
4) Unexpected_Graph.png is the unexpected graph when I am using Write to SGL and Read from SGL to store and retrieve the data.
5) Expected_Graph.png -> This is the expected data format I supposed to get. I have obtained this plot when I have used write to LVM and read from LVM file to store and retrieve the data.
I tried a lot modifying the sub VI’s but it doesn’t work for me. What I think is I am doing some mistake while I am writing the data to SGL and Reading the data from SGL. Also, I don’t know the reason why my graph is not like (5) rather I am getting something like its in (4). Its totally different. You can also observe the difference between the time scale of (4) and (5).
Have a Good Day

Krishna

As already discussed a while ago, your binary data does not contain timing information. You need to tell it the scan rate so it can reconstruct the time axis correcty.
From the data, it seems the sample file was recorded at 0.5MHz. Take the inverse and set the time increment. Voila!
Your sample file is two column data with one colum all zero. You need to set the number of columns to two, to only get the good data in channel 1.
Your acquisition program contains unecessary FOR loops, you can remove the inner loops without change in result.
It makes no sense to convert to SGL if you initialize the shift registers with an empty DBL array. You need to initialize with an empty SGL array.
(The code could be simplified quite a bit more, but this should give you some directions).
The attached zip shows some ideas (LabVIEW 7.1).

How to maintain format in html email using the send email....

Does anyone know how to maintain the format in a HTML email using the Send E-mail To Recipients From Recordset behavior?
When text only is selected instead of HTML text on the Options tab the format of the input is maintained, but when HTML text is selected the email has no format. I have tried to use a replace \n with
as I have done when hand coding PHP, BUT I am trying to learn to use ADDT. I also tried to use a Custom trigger without success.
Help!

Hi Dave,
in my snippets folder I have this thing which I found on the old MX Kollection forums and which was suggested by the Interakt staff:
//trigger SendEmail (write content)
function Trigger_SendEmail(&$tNG) {
ob_start();
include("myDynamicContentFile.php");
$mailcontent = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
$emailObj = new tNG_Email($tNG);
$emailObj->setTo("[email protected]");
$emailObj->setFrom("[email protected]");
$emailObj->setSubject("A new User was added");
$emailObj->setContent($mailcontent);
$emailObj->setEncoding("UTF-8");
$emailObj->setFormat("text");
$emailObj->setImportance("Low");
return $emailObj->Execute();
//trigger SendEmail (write content)
The only modification is the possibility to include a dynamic PHP file rather than some static text or a HTML file which will also render textarea contents on one line:
ob_start();
include("myDynamicContentFile.php");
$mailcontent = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
That said, it should be possible to define all the "rendering" options in the external PHP file, what would mean to apply the nl2br function there, e.g.: nl2br($row_queryname['columnname'])
What I´m not sue about is, if you will have to strip the external file´s head and body tags before it´s getting included -- however, please give this a try and tell us how it worked.
Cheers,

Using the send by Email for Review function

We are using Adobe Acrobat 8 and would like to use the send by Email for Review function. We would like to modify the text for the invitation message but don't want to have to modify it every time we use the function. Does anybody know any way that we can modify the message so that it would be the same message every time it is used?

Hi Christine,
I know it's not the answer you want, but signatures have to be added in a serial manner. Every time you sign the PDF file you are signing everything that came before the signature was created, and this includes the previous signatures. There is no method to combine signatures from multiple files into one file. You would end up creating a signature over data that wasn't there when the signature was originally created, and in the security world that's a no-no.

I am having a problem using the help menu in Adobe elements 5

I am having a problem using the help menu in Adobe elements number five.
When I open the help menu, the dialogue box defaults to an unreadable display font. Is there any way to change that default font? Using the help menus to find a solution is not possible for I cannot read what it is displaying.

For product, there is an option in preferences where we can set fonts. There are two options: One is application font and other is system font. I am talking about elements 8 which I have but not sure that will solve your problem which is help related.
Hope Help in 5th version is html which opens in Browser? Please confirm.

Could not initialize photoshop because of a problem using the adobe color engine (Win 7)

Was running the lastest version of Photoshop CS5 and added a second quad graphics card and 4 more monitors. Now PS will not start and I get the error message "could not initialize photoshop because of a problem using the adobe color engine."
Computer has 2 NIVDIA Quadro4 NVS420 graphics boards with 8 Samsung SyncMaster 1920x1080 monitors. If I disable 4 of the monitors CS5 starts normally. I do not have to remove the added graphics card. When I extend the desktop again to all 8 monitors I get the error above.
How do I trouble-shoot the problem? Is it Photoshop, NIVDIA or Windows 7?

Well, not exactly a full solution yet (at least for my setup), but I am certain now that this issue is (mostly) caused by nVidia's drivers. You may be able to fix your setup by simply installing the latest drivers for your NVS420 cards (266.45 for Win 7/64 rel. 01/12/2011).
Since you are using two identical cards, this could do the trick.
Caveats - Make sure you:
1. Select Custom Install, the Express Install will most likely not work properly.
2. Unselect the Audio Driver (if available), the nVidia HD(MI) Audio driver could
screw up your speech recognition (if you use it) or other audio software - it did for me.
3. Select Clean Install. If you don't, files like C:\Windows\System32\drivers\nvlddmkm.sys
and several other driver related files will not be overwritten, causing all sorts of neat effects.
4. After the Install is complete, reboot your system whether the Installer prompts you or not.
After testing various configurations, disabling two - six of my eight monitors I am at this point:
I am now using nVidia's lastest and greatest piece of crap (read driver), version 266.58, released just two days ago. After an initial snag with maximized windows extending to the bottom of the main monitor (underneath the taskbar), a re-install & reboot solved that issue.
All three driver versions tested (260.89, 260.99, 266.58) now allow me to start PhotoShop without any problems; providing I first disable the two monitors fed by my onboard graphics (nVidia 780a based), leaving me with six monitors connected to three GTS-450 cards. I can even re-enable the two other monitors once the program is open, and it continues to work fine. However, I must disconnect them again for the next start of PhotoShop.
On an interesting side note:
After disabling six monitors (leaving only two on a GTS-450), I was also able to open and run SoundBooth CS5, which previously would not open, citing the audio driver as the problem. After sucessfully starting SoundBooth I could re-enable all six other monitors (incl. onboards),
and that program now opens and works fine with all 8 monitors connected. [ODD !!!]
Other than Adobe Software, I've had only one other issue with my setup:
When playing online poker at PokerStars, occasionally and quite randomly one of multiple tables would freeze up. I'll try disabling the two onboard monitors for that program as well to see whether the random freezes stop.
Overall, while I think that Adobe produces fine software and nVidia has been in need of an overhaul for quite some time now, I also think that Adobe and nVidia software engineers need to work more closely together to ensure that problems like this don't arise in the first place after a product has been released to the public. IMHO, this is avoidable!
PS:
Here's a link to a great tool for multiple monitors, Display Fusion by Binary Fortress.
I use the free version, it allows you to do cool things like have individual wallpapers for all
your monitors, or stretch a single image across all monitors. With the Pro Version ($25),
you can also add individually customizable taskbars to each monitor, and a lot more.
