Reformatting 4:3 for 16:9 output in FCP v.6

Hi everyone,
I usually work in Avid, and I am not sure how to solve a very common issue in editing when in FCP. I'm sure someone has worked out a method for dealing with this.
If you are going to output in 16:9 for widescreen playback but you are working with a lot of archival footage in 4:3, plus photographs in other formats, how do you throw a 16:9 format mask across your entire timeline? I find a video layer in FCP is not 'live' unless it is covered with a clip. Apart from the arduousness of reformatting every single shot, when you animate your photograph within FCP, the crop borders move too. The problem with animating before importing is it will never be exactly what you want once it is on the timeline.
I'm sure some Final Cut Pro-person has found the work around. Thanks in advance!

Cutting into a 16:9 sequence when you output is fine, but when you are working with the material you need to know the composition. Is there any way of creating a 16:9 "safety" frame and using it in your 4:3 window? If you made it in photoshop can you import it with alpha channels? Also, often there is unfortunately a mixture of formats going....any ideas?
Thanks

Single invoice for multiple DO & Output for the same!

Dear Gurus,
I have configured an output type for Export & its for Collective billing,where we have a contact,a sales order and multiple Outbound deliveries but have one collective billing for multiple DOs.
Here the issue is :-
1-when i go for collective invoice ,it does not generate a single invoice with all DOs
2-thus due to which output too is not getting generated.
I want the settings needed for collective invoice & output type for this export invoice.

Hi,
!- Combination criteria in billing is different (gives two diff nos.)
In copy control at item level DATA VBRK/VBAP assign routine 001(SAMPLE INVOICE SPLIT)
2-Number of foreign trade data is diff again.

BADI for updating changing output medium in PO

Hi,
 Is there any BADI or exit present for updating the output medium in PO , based upon some criteria ?
 In my requirement I want to make output medium as 'email' and set email address to email ID of one of the partner function maintained in PO.
Thanks and Regards,
Amit R

Hi
At runtime, you will get the GUID in the BADI Interface.
Incase this BADI does not help, go for another BADI
1) BBP_SEND_MEDIUM_MODE
(Determines the Default Settings for the Send Medium)
2) 'BBP_OUTPUT_CHANGE_SF'.
Here are some related links ->

Print program for the smartform for selecting the output type (email/fax)

Hi All,
Requirement :I have to create a print program for the smartform where the output type may be print out,email or fax ,so i need to put the condition for selecting the output type (like printout,email,fax).
can any body please let me know how to put the condition for selecting the desired output type ?
Thanks in advance
Rahul

Hi
It is not the output type that has to be changed
it is the MEDIUM which you have to change and configure
for printout medium is 1
for FAX medium is 2
for MAIL it is 7.
so instead of printout change the medium to 2 or 7 for the same output type and attach to the same driver program and smartform/form.

Number of messages for Purchase Order output

Hi All!
I have to set the number of messages for the Purchase Order output at 2 (NAST-ANZAL). For a certain output type, in the Communication method the default value for Number of messages (original + copies) has to be 2. There is a transaction which allows me to do that but I don't remember it.
Yours answers and your time are appreciate.
Best regards.

Hi
The transaction is MN05 or

Different interfaces for purchase order output from MM system

Dear Guru's,
We are configuring the business scenarios of service procurement classic and Plan driven procurement with supplier enablement in the MM-SUS environment for our SRM7.01/ECC6 ehp 5 combination.
These two scenarios are using different interfaces for purchase order output.
The service procurement classic is using the proxy interface PurchaseOrderERPRequest_
Out_V1 for purchase order output from ERP.
However, the plan driven procurement uses the interface ORDERS.ORDERS02 for idoc message for purchase order output from ERP.
Why are there two different interfaces for the same document output in two different business scenario? How the system will determine which interface needs to be used in the runtime for the purchase order output?
Any thoughts will be highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Ranjan,
Please add the value 'CL' in the table SWF_CATIDS
Then it will work.

Reformatting an iPod for Windows with a Mac

I have a 4G iPod that I'd like to use as a portable HD. My school only has Windows machines, so it obviously needs to be Windows formatted. Unfortunately (heh) I only have access to Macs at home, and cannot use the school's PCs for this. Is there any way I can use my Mac to format my iPod for Windows?

Is there any way I can use my Mac to format my iPod for Windows?
No.
You either need to reformat the iPod for Windows (using a Windows computer) as you previously stated or use some 3rd party software (which is not free) like MacDrive or XPlay2 that allow Mac formatted iPods to be used on the Windows platform.
Neither of these options would appear suitable given your circumstances.

Debugging the program that will get triggered for a particular output type

Hi all,
I have one program,which will get triggered when a Sales order of type 'VOR' is created.Whenever 'VOR' order is created it will trigger the 'ZALT' output type.And this output type 'ZALT'has been configured to my program.This output type configuration has been set up by my functional consultant.
My problem is I created Sales order of type 'VOR'.But I want to debug my program,which has to be triggered because of that 'VOR' sales order type,which in turn triggers 'ZALT' output type and in turn triggers my program.
My problem is I created Sales order of type 'VOR' by keeping debugging point in my program.But it is not going to my program and simply displaying sales order has been saved.
So is the outtype has been configured properly?.Do I need to go to my functional consultant?Could anyone explain in this regard?
Rgds,
Balaji

Hi Balaji,
If possible, try to repeat the output in the output type messages screen of VA02 and change its dipatch time to '1'(Through further data). Now put the break point in the program assigned to output tye 'ZALT'(You can see this in the TNAPR table) and run the program RSNAST00 through SE38. The program will stop at the break point.
If its not possible to repeat the output and if you want to check it the first time the output type is processed, ask the functional consultant to change the dispatch time in the condition record that is being retrieved for proposing the output type to '1'. Now run RSNAST00. The program will stop at the breakpoint.
Thanks,
Vinay

HOW TO ASSIGN F4_VALUE_HELP FOR A REPORT OUTPUT FIELD???

Can you please help me out in assigning F4_VALUE_HELP for a report output field where it is taking value as the input parameter....... If possible please help me out with some sample code ....

I don't think that you are get the F4 functionality by pressing F4, but maybe if you use a hotspot you could achieve it. Check this sample. When you click on a company code in the list, it fires the F4 help defined by the program.

No condition maintained for Order Confirmation output type but still active

Hi,
I have NOT maintained any Condition record for Order confirmation Output(BAFX) but still it is generated and Fax instruction is being sent to the Sold to Party. Also i found that NO condition record for Order confirmation output(BA00) is also maintained but still Order confirmation is still being triggered.
Actually i want that NO Fax instruction is to be sent for Order confirmation for some of the customers.
Kindly advise.
Thanks,

Hi vk@sap,
Check in the output analysis how the output was determined, so that you can know why they're still determined.
Thanks,

Idoc numbers for a certain output in Sales Orders

I have more than hundred Sales Order
One EDI output was triggered (with a unique partner type) from each of these Sales Orders.
How to find idoc numbers for all these Sales Order for this particular output?
I tried WE09 giving Segment and field with value....two issues with this. first is it is not working for me...not records found.
Secondly It take one value at a time. I can't do this for every Sales Order
Is there any database table or something else to find these idocs?
Thanks a lot!

Hi,
if this special partner type is the partner type of the IDoc receiver, then you can search for relevant IDocs in transaction WE02.
If you need a partner type out of the sales order data, then it is stored in table EDID4 "IDoc Data Records".

I am using an NI PCI 6024 E board device for an analog output application. Can I generate two independent waveforms, one on each analog output channel?

I am using an NI PCI 6024 E board device for an analog output application. Can I generate two independent waveforms, one on each analog output channel? In attach I send a example of my vi to control one chanel, but i need to control both but with diferent waveforms.
Is the vi correctly programed to this propose?

Yes you should be able to do that. look at the signal generation examples shipped with LabView
You can create a 2 D array, with each row representing a wave form per channel. The number of points of the wave form (per row of the 2 D array) represent the number of points in the output buffer
The wave forms can have different amplitudes/shapes, and therefore they are independent in this sense.
However, you need to set the update rate,which is the same for both channels. The update rate together with number of points per buffer determines the frequency of the wave forms. This means the two wave forms will have the same frequency.
To have different frequencies, you need to have say, on wave form with one cycle per buffer, and the other waveform have 2 cycles
per buffer. in a case like that the frequency of the second channels is twice that of the first channel, and so on
The two wave forms are then not truly independent, they may have different amplitudtes/shapes, but related in frequency.

Creating Format type for printing ALV output.

Dear Friends,
I am using a format type for printing ALV output print which displays 65 rows and 255 columns on DINA4 page. I want to create a format type which will print 65 rows and 310 columns on 'LEGAL' page format .
So plz suggest the ways along with help links if any.
Regards,
Madan.

Hi Mandan,
As long as I know the maximum column for printing is 255.
Might be you can split your output into 2 rows...
