Question about Exporting Stills

I just upgraded from 1.5 to 4 and in 1.5 (and older versions) exporting a still was a quick and easy process but when I just tried it in 4 it sent the files to adobe media encoder and then encoder takes around 45 seconds per still to output. Am I doing this wrong? Surely something that took only a couple of seconds in an older version of the software hasn't been made more complicated?

Harm,
Just a guess on my part: I'd say that Adobe separated AME out, to get the much requested, and coveted batch Export. At some point along the way, and too late to "fix" it, Adobe engineers had an "Oh shoot!" moment, when they realized that Export a Still was now incorporated in the AME process.
It is rumored that 4.1 will fix this little problem, and here's hoping. While I am not a fan of "big button" programs, for Export a Still, I'd take an icon of a "cute little camera," if it did it in one step. I'd even like to have a global Preferences setting, so that the user could establish the format, and location for stills, with maybe a Ctrl-click, if they wanted to modify those settings. This would pop-up a dialog box, allowing format and destination to be changed on the fly.
To the OP, you are not alone, and you missed nothing. Actually, you're ahead of most, as few could figure this one out at all.

Sql developer: question about exporting data

Hi,
we're recently working with sql-developer. i've got a question about how we can export query results to txt/csv files for use in other applications.
First a problem: if we start a query that looks like this:
select * from
select * from A where start_date = &date
) a,
select * from B where start_date = &date
) b
where a.name = b.name
Sql-developer asks twice to input a value for the variable 'date', although it's the same variable and it's supposed to have the same value.
We solve this by making a script:
first we define the variable, then we put the query.
When we start the script, the query runs ok and sql developer asks to input the value for the variable once.
But now the result of the query is shown in the script output. The script output seems to be limited in number of lines and difficult to export.
So my question is: what's the best way to export query results to txt/csv files, avoiding the problem mentioned above?
i hope there is a solution where we can use a single query or script.
Thanks in advance!

Using bind variables like ":date" should solve the problem of being asked twice for the same thing.
Executing the query normally (F9), gives you the export options you require through the context menu inside the Results grid.

K.

Question about exporting FBL3N data in Pivot table format

Dear all
I have a question about the "exporting file" function of ECC 6.0.
We started to use ECC 6.0 system, and it appears that we are no longer able to export "FBL3N data" to a local PC in pivot table format.
Is there a way to do it?
We used to be able to do so when the system is 4.6.
I appreciate your support!
Kind regards

Dear:
You can do that. Execute report FBL3N with desired GL account in it. After when report has been executed right click on it. There will be an option Spread Sheet. Select all available format. In drill down select 08 (Excel in existing XXL format) and press OK. There you will get pivot table option for downloading., Hope this will help you resolve your query.

Questions about exporting PSDS(so as PNG, TIFF with transparency) by AI CS4 and newer

Hello, I've got this question as titled...I stll can't figure it out why.
I'm now using WIN version of AI CS6, and I've used CS4, CS5 before.
Why does AI CS4(and the newers) export transparent PSD files which are always with blank transparent thin border(about 2~3px) line in the right and down side ?
This situation hasn't happened in CS3 and CS2.
The PSD files I intended to export are about A4 size with 300 dpi, sometimes with 150dpi, in RGB/CMYK/Grayscale color modes.
If someone as well-experienced as all you seniors can tell me the reason or even solutions i'll be very thankful to your reply.

Thank your reply first
I totally agree with your opinion, it's really an annoying bug.
I've tried your solutions before but it's still time-comsuming to correct the with/length.
Sometimes I think the new version AI kind of rediculous because it can't export as accurate as the CS2/CS3's exporting, which should have functioned well.
On the other hand, I can also save my AI file with PDF capability and drag it into PS to rasterize, then I can get accurate PSD files.
But save AI with PDF cab. takes much time, even more when there are complex objects (or) with multiple appearance features and occasionally fails to save and get a broken AI file.

I have a question about exporting a short movie to burn on a DVD.

Ok, it's me again. You guys were so much help last night, that I am back for another piece of advice. I have made a short 23 minute movie in Premiere Pro CS3, using 200 still images and some music. I realize that this program is way more than I need, but it is on my computer along with I Photo, I DVD, and I Movie - which are great programs for the quick little thing I am doing, but you can only choose 1 Transition between each still in all three of those programs and that becomes very obnoxious.
Therefore, I used Premiere Pro CS3, but now I want to export it two times - once for a web site and once to burn it to a DVD to watch on a standard TV. Can anyone walk me through that - way, way to many choices and I tried reading the 11 pages in the user manual - it may as well been in a foreign language.
Thanks to all.
Michele

Hi,
If you have encore you can use that for the DVD...encore will take care of a lot of stuff for you automatically...
What are your project settings ? eg.... 720x480 progressive, square pixels, 29.97 fps, 4:3 aspect ratio....etc.
That will have a lot to do with how you export for the web...what settings you use..
You will need to know what web based video size you want ( will it be smaller than your project (720 x480 ? ) for example?)
Sooo, do you have encore?
Can you supply project settings and info about what you want the web video to be

Questions about exporting to full quality?

Hey there -
I just wanted to make sure that if I want to give my friend back a DV file from the converted tape that I choose Export, then Full Quality? I know that creates one file vs individual clips but her tape was one long one, I did chapter markers for the dvd and make splits but I don't think she wants those (some are arbitrary, e.g. the tape was long than an hour so iMovie HD split it into two clips). So, I just want to be sure that that's the right choice for exporting?
And, on that, does that remove transitions or keep them?
Lastly, there is a weird screen in QuickTime in the resulting file. It's a colorblock screen of sorts - a whole punch of pixels (big TV ones, not sure what they are called) in a bunch of colors. It's happening RIGHT at the end of the footage - not thrilled about it but it is the DV file, I guess. Depending on answer to above, I may at least extend the end transition so it doesn't make future editing difficult. Any way to eliminate it from happening?
Thanks for your help -
Alexa

+You should be able to move the cursor frame-by-frame with the arrow keys to get to the precise 'cut' point.+
I know - it's strange but I lost a few seconds of just black screen at the end - I even went back and checked against the actual movie. At any rate, I'm slicing them off carefully and now am adding just a few seconds of still time at the end so it's not an issue.
+What exactly is it that your friends want to do with the digitized footage? I recommend that you make them a DVD of the edited movie, and then export the movie back to the camcorder so they also have a digital mini DV tape of it. This way, they can view the DVD to see their movie and show to others, but they also have a backup on tape.+
Ah, let's see - somehow I've agreed to convert a bag full of VHSC and VHS tapes (and hours and hours of my life for footage that's not even my family!) At any rate, I am giving them the deluxe end product - a customized movie with smoother transitions and chapters, a customized DVD menu with images and chapters (and music, if it fits) and a customized case and printed DVD (Taiyo Yuden printed Watershield DVD). Yes, the works. So, then I told them to buy a external HDD and I would move the resulting DV files to it so they would have them should the ever want to use the footage again (e.g. make an "anniversary" montage that pulls in just clips from their wedding, or a wedding montage for their kids that includes the baby footage that I digitized.) So, they have the VHSC and VHS originals, they'll have the movie on DVD and they were going to have the DV files on a hard drive of the appropriate size. That was my recommendation since the problem was that the tapes sat around in the first place - they aren't going to convert them without help. But, if that's the "best" option for longer-lasting backup, I can offer it to them.
+If this were for your use, I would recommend that you also create a disk image of the iDVD project as backup. ...Because the disk image file is self-contained, you can safely delete the iMovie and iDVD projects without losing the ability to burn DVDs of the iDVD project that is now saved as the disk image. You use Disk Utility (or Toast if you have it) to burn the actual DVD disk.+
That is the best advice I could have received! I hadn't really figured out what I was going to do with the actual iMovie and iDVD projects after I was finished. I was reluctant to delete b/c - ahem - they've come back to me after 2 months of the last project and asked for another copy!!! But, I've already added one external for this, I can't house their memories in various forms forever. So, if I do the disk image, I'll retain the ability to make the disk - that's exactly what I need. I've already been caught once by the dreaded "you've updated the move file" bug once, simply because I had opened the original iMovie project - and I had to build the whole DVD again (and it had 24 chapters!)
Thanks so much for the counsel on the disk image - I had heard about it but just wasn't sure how I should directly apply it to these projects.
Appreciate it!

Quick question about exporting to Flash

Is there a way to get the same quality when you export a cpv
project to Flash, as when you preview it in Captivate?
Are changes in mouse paths, sounds, and picture quality after
transferring normal? Or are they supposed to look exactly the same
as they do in Captivate?
I'd just like to rule out one or the other.

Hi ksonta
One would expect to see that everything survived the
export/import process in full clarity. In a perfect world, that is.
Unfortunately, Captivate doesn't yet "talk" to Flash as
cleanly as we would like. You might question this by asking "Aren't
they both Adobe products? Why not?"
And I would fundamentally agree with you in theory. But the
fact is, Adobe hasn't had either product all that long. Adobe
bought Macromedia. Macromedia had Flash. Macromedia also had
Captivate, but they bought Captivate from another company called
eHelp. Heck, even eHelp bought the product from yet another company
called Nexus Concepts. So Captivate has a long and colorful
history.
Hopefully the next version will bring us seamless and perfect
exporting and importing from Flash.
Currently I'm aware of an issue with Background images being
"shrunken". Maybe the export/import process has too much hot water?
Cheers... Rick

Question about Export - Audio mixdown

Ive been wondering, why is there option boxes for 32 and 16 bit? I understand dithering. But is this just to let adobe know what bit rate it is? why?
Maybe, is it for this?? : someone being in a hurry, for a quick mixdown for a cd-ready track they could hit 16 bit and enable dither, and youll notice the "Dither Options" is the same dithering program inside Edit -> Convert Sample Type (F11) in multitrack view.
And 32 bit is just to keep it good if you plan on editing it later, but i dont get this: Why adobe needs to know at mixdown, the actual waves should already be carrying the bit information, right?
But what if the track was already dithered using Waves, Izotope or some other on the master fader for a quickfix...would leaving it at 32 be no problem? And if I put it at 16 would it try to chop it off more?
Sorry, please someone explain.
Adobe audition is not as simple as protools...sorry about my rant the other day, i understand i made a few mad but they probably took it the wrong way and I probably said it the wrong way, I was really looking for help. it just got me frustrated. I am an adobe auditon user too, as well.
And just wondering, What .wav format do you guys save your Final master in?
me, Ive been using ACM Format .WAV (16 bit 44.1 of course)
once again, sorry

djak24k wrote:
Sorry, you lost me there, what do you mean by 2 16 bit files? like 2 in one session? or one on stacked on another? and run out of steam?
Yes, two in one session. If one of them is 6dB louder (or quieter) than the other, then you'd need at least 17 bits to represent all the possible data in the output.
And since i DJ, should I start recording in 16 bit? I have always kept 44.1 32 bit when in adobe because its the default, and mixed down, and had to master and dither in edit view in order to make it go on a cd... And the music is already mastered, but I go ahead and record in 32 bit, which i dont think would cause a problem - BUT dithering on top of dithering like i do to make it 16 again, that could be bad couldnt it?
You shouldn't ever dither twice - you end up with twice as much added noise as you need, and it very likely won't work properly.
Steve, whats your final 16bit-44.1 format? Ive noticed some of my cds havent been playing in 1, later on the cd players motor burnt out (impala 2004- im sure it was just getting old) and got a completely new cd player (the stock tray kind) and i still get errors, but they play everywhere else... and ive been doing ACM ever since I learned what redbook was. Well, at least in adobe.
Ah, I meant to mention that. You shouldn't ever use ACM for anything, because it gets processed by the very dubious processing in the OS. What you should use is Windows PCM, because this is saved directly. So, the only acceptable format is 44.1k 16-bit stereo PCM wav.
The safe way to process your audio is to do a 32-bit mixdown, and then in EV do the dither using Ozone. After that, convert the file (which is effectively a truncation) to 16-bit and do no more processing at all. The rule is "Dither Once - Dither Last". If you look in the Ozone Dithering Guide you will find more information about exactly what to do.

I have a question about exporting a music file from Express.

Hi, I'm a new Logic Express user and I have a question.
I have been using Garageband for some time and I figured I needed a higher level of music producing. Now, I have created a song in Logic Express. However, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPORT IT! it was so much in GB. But Now, I'm having trouble. I looked through the manual more than once and I can't find a way to export my logic file as an Mp3 file.
Can anyone help me? Thanks!

In the file menu there is a BOUNCE option, when you bounce it you can set it to convert to an MP3 right there or you can do it in iTunes. Its up to you.

Question about Export functions

hi,
i'm considering getting into STP but would like to know about its export functions especially when it comes to interchange projects with other DAWs in particular Pro Tools.
What exactly are the import / export options?
ie: OMF, AAF, AES31, etc...
ideally i would want to do sound editing (for film work) in STP, then transfer the edit session to Pro Tools for the mix stage.
thanks, manioca
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

If your talking about Pro Tools HD, then who gives a **** about a simple program like this one! Don't waste peoples time who don't have spare change for plugins that actually work after paying for that kind of a system. Real players know that PTHD won't hold a candle to either profesional live or studio sets and little programs like Logic and Soundtrack pro are only the backup of the process. Soundtrack Pro is particularly suited for the finished project, going backwards from it is stupid beyond words.
[and if you don't have PTHD then you're really lost in space here, this forum is for Soundtrack Pro.]

Question about exporting

Hello all. It is my first time using Premire Pro 2 and I am having some issues. Whenever I try to export my video it exports it, but then I see no video. I have the audio, but no video. Could the problem be in the way I structured the project? It's HD footage, so I used one of those presets. I really hope there is a solution to this becasue I spent a lot of time on this. The Adobe HD-SDI is what I set as the editing mode. Does that affect it? Please help!
Thank you so much in advance.

Welcome to the forum.
First, tell us about your source files, in as much detail, as you can. Then, the full specs. of that Project Preset would be useful - again with full details, especially if you chose a Desktop Preset and adjusted any attributes.
Last, please give the full details of your Export options. It is likely that you forgot to check a box, or hit the correct radio button. Here, I would strongly recommend doing a screen-cap series of all of your Export setting dialog screens, as the key might well be in there.
Good luck, and we'll be looking for that info and the screen-caps,

Yet another question about exporting and video quality

Kind people,
I know this question has been asked many, many times, and I have searched and read up of the topic, but I would also like to ask it.
I shot my video on a Canon Vixia HF10, downloaded it to Final Cut Express to edit, exported it as Quick Time Movie, dropped it in iDVD, then played it on my TV and the quality was…..not good. The video was a little fuzzy and there were ghosts. Are there any settings I should go back and check in iDVD.
Wolfgang

Hi(Bonjour)!
What is the format recorded by this camera?
How did you capture/ingest your video material in FCE?
What was your sequence format in timeline?
How did you export your sequence (specify exact steps, menus and command)?
What was your iDVD project settings?
What was the iDVD quality setting?
Did you monitor your DVD on computer screen or TV set?

Quick question about exporting email address and their alias from Exchange 2007 mailbox

Hi Everyone,
We have Exchange 2007 and 2013 servers. All users are still 2007 servers. I have a list of users around 179 out of 3000 in a CSV file. I would like to export those 179 users primary smtp and their aliases. Is it possible to achieve through any script?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Siva

Hello Siva,
You don't need a script for this. Information can be obtained with simple command.
$AllUsers = Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited | Select DisplayName,Alias,PrimarySMTPAddress,SamACcountName,Database,LegacyExchangeDN
$AllUsers | Export-Csv Outputfile.csv -NoTypeInformation
Try this and let me know if it helps!
if you want PrimarySMTPAddress and alias of only those users whose information on the excel sheet, then what do you have as the column name in the excel sheet which you are using to query on the server.
Considering that you are using Alias to query the server to get the details you can try below:
$Global:Output = @()
$CsvData = Import-Csv Inputfile.csv
foreach($line in $CsvData)
{$CurrentObject = $Line.AliasWrite-Host “Processing Obect “$CurrentObject “From Csv File”
–ForeGroundColor YELLOW$EmailIDJoin = ""$EmailAddresses = @()$UserInfo = "" | Select DisplayName,PrimarySMTPAddress,Alias,SamAccountName,Database,LegacyExchangeDN,EmailAddresses
$UserInfo.DisplayName = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).DisplayName
$UserInfo.PrimarySMTPAddress = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).PrimarySMTPAddress
$UserInfo.Alias = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).Alias
$UserInfo.SamAccountName = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).SamAccountName
$UserInfo.Database = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).Database
$UserInfo.LegacyExchangeDN = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject).LegacyExchangeDN
$EmailAddresses = (Get-Mailbox $CurrentObject)|%{$_.EmailAddresses}
for($i=0;$i -lt $EmailAddresses.Count;$i++)
$EmailIDJoin += $EmailAddresses[$i].ProxyAddressString
if($i -lt $EmailAddresses.Count - 1)
$EmailIDJoin += ','
$UserInfo.EmailAddresses = $EmailIdJoin
$Global:Output += $UserInfo
#Export output to CSV File
$Global:Output | Export-Csv GlobalOutput.csv -NoTypeInformation

Questions about export in OnLocation CS4

Hi, I was wondering if there is any benefit to using the export feature in OnLocation CS4 over merely opening the project folder and grabbing the files. It seems to just copy the files with an .xml file (?) into a new folder (which takes a long time) and is prone to crashing -which has happened to me twice. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
JP

Michael,
I've actually given up. The Export feature crashed on me twice doing... well... who knows? Easier and more reliable to just go into the folder and pluck the files myself.
The only purpose I can guess at is if you were working on a SAN or other networked storage. That way you could keep working/shooting while OnLocation copied the ready footage to your SAN for editing elsewhere. If you use the OS directly, it would drag all the resources. But that's my only guess.
Honestly, I am really disappointed with CS4. It seems that Adobe spent all this time incorporating "workflow enhancements" (like XML metadata, speech recognition, and that export feature) that they ignored, removed, or broke pieces that are crucial to the work to begin with. There are a few things I like (the new AME, the look of the interface, improved HDV/AVCHD handling) but it comes with sooooo many trade-offs.

Good question about Exporting to tape

Somebody asked me this and I thought it was a good question. And I dont know the answer!
When a camera is connected to FCE, whatever plays on the timeline plays on the camera viewfinder, right? So instead of using PRINT TO VIDEO why wouldnt we just manually press record on the camera and just tape the movie straight off the timeline?
Is there some kind of quality loss if you do this?
Just seems to be a quicker and easier way to get the movie to tape.

While this works just fine, there are some issues. I.E., it is a lot easier to interrupt your recording when playing straight from the timeline (press the wrong key, have another app switch over, etc).
Print To Video (as far as I know) can only be interrupted with the ESC key.
Also, in Print to Video, FCP makes sure everything is rendered, and you can add color bars, slate, black, etc to the beginning if needed.
