Rendering file formats problem (non-issue in premier)

hello all,
so i'm new to final cut and baffled at the unusual render issues i've encountered from the get go.
i recorded some video using the canon fs-10 / fs-20, a lowend digital camcorder.
the camera outputs the format to .mod which i then converted to .mpeg4.
without any editing in FC, a single clip needs to render just to view it in the canvas but plays ok in the viewer. does this make any sense?
i've even tried to convert to .mov and .avi.
when i used a different camera that automatically records in .mov, final cut plays back in the canvas just fine without rendering.
so,
1. what exactly determines when FC renders if not the file format?
2. why does it need to render at all if i'm just playing back? it plays back in the viewer but not the canvas. baffling.
would be a real shame if FC couldn't handle simple editing with these basic files.
thanks!

Just grabbing software, and throwing video files at it, without taking the time to read or learn HOW this said application works, isn't wise. FCP isn't Premiere...FCP doesn't just take in any old QT file and then work with it. No. It needs to be converted to a format that FCP works with. What you see in the EASY SETUP list is what FCP works with.
If you don't bother to learn the basics of the application, then things won't go smoothly. If you just want to grab QT files and throw them into an application to start editing, then use Premiere.
1. what exactly determines when FC renders if not the file format?
If it isn't in the Easy Setup list...FCP will want to render it. If you mix two or more codecs in a sequence, then FCP will render the footage that differs from the main footage you are editing with.
2. why does it need to render at all if i'm just playing back?
Because It is viewable in the Viewer...that's just a window to the QT file. But the canvas is where things are put together. And that is where settings are determined.
would be a real shame if FC couldn't handle simple editing with these basic files.
Basic files that aren't in editable codecs. At least ones that FCP (and Avid) work with. If you want an app that just works with stuff you throw at it, Premiere and Vegas are for you.

ABAP to XML file - Formatting problem and UTF-8 requirement

Hi Everyone,
Could you please guide us on the ABAP coding required to get the proper XML file format. We have prepared the code for downloading SAP transaction data into an XML file format. However, we are stuck with an improper format as per Example 1.
The file format we get is this:
Example 1:
<?xml version="1.0"?><FDXLMDOrd><FXNHdrLp><CrtDtTm>20070613094517</CrtDtTm><MsgID>319304155</MsgID><MsgTyp>850</MsgTyp><MsgSubTyp>SALES_A</MsgSubTyp><Pr

However, the format need to look like this as in Example 2 below.
We also need help in how to get " encoding="UTF-8"?> " as part of the file format.
Example 2:

However, I like to mention that the file created from out ECC 5.0 (6.40, non-Unicode) contains a special character between the XML header and the data part (when displayed using NotePad Editor):

Using a HexEditor the special character (0x0A) is displayed as a dot.

Excel File Format Problem while downloading in ALV Grid

Hi All,
My program gives an ALV Grid Output which contains the file download button , when I choose spread sheet as the file format , the actual data starts only from 4th line and the lines above it contain date, heading etc and the rest are blank. Is it possible that I can download only the records in the grid output with the column names and not the unnecessary log?
Also the format is not proper excel format, this same file will be used for upload into another program using the Function Module 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'. When I load the file saved in the above format, this Function Module always fails.
Please let me know any solution for this problem
Thanks in Advance.

Nokia Asha 200 image file format problem

hello. I just bought a Nokia Asha 200 recently, and I am happy with it. The only problem that I am currently having is with my phone's captured image's file format. It used to be .jpg and then it suddenly became .nrw and I can't open it when I tranfer the images to my computer. Whenever I convert it it just becomes black. I restored the factory settings of my phone but the format is still .nrw.
I want to know what caused it and how can I revert back the image file format to .jpg.
Thank you so much in advance.
Good day.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Because Nokia s40 Phones automatically Enhancing the Image Captured and reduces it's size. The reason why you're Photos is in .nrw format because you didn't wait to process it. Follow these steps so it won't occuring again On the Camera Choose Options > Settings > Image Preview > Choose End Manually. Then wait for pictures to be processed you captured (sometimes you will notice that the image enhanced). It also can be done in the background. Hope it Helps.
I love T9 Bar Phones | I used to be a Sony Ericson fan before but they leave the low end Phones so I have to switch to Nokia | LG Optimus L5 II and Nokia 206 3

File format problem

hey i have a camcord and i can hook it up to my mac, but my problems are that the video files come up to ".mod" and i need ".mov" ".mpg" etc to edit them.
is there any movie program i can buy or use to convert, and i think i have seen IMovie 08 convert instantly when dragged into the program, but i'm not sure.
can anyone spread some light?

You have posted in the iMovie HD forum. Which version of iMovie are you using?
You can use MPEG Streamclip to convert footage to DV format, which is what iMovie HD (v5) and iMovie HD6 require. http://www.squared5.com/

    append ITAB1.
endloop.
But finally im getting output as
"100001012 in ordernumber of co01 transaction.
it should display 100001012 in ordernumber field.
please suggest how we can rectify this problem.

Hi Vijay,
   I can sugest you one thing. Before splitting ITAB at " , " .
use REPLACE command to remove inverted code value ( " ) .
Eg Loop at Itab.
REPLCE ALL OCCURANCES OF " WITH SPACE ( Check syntax).
Hope this will solve your problem.

Quicktime and File Format Problems

I just got a new MacBook Pro and i have tried downloading the Quicktime for it but every time i do it says "Quicktime cannot be downloaded on this disk. The software is intended for an earlier version of Mac OS X" The thing is i downloaded the new Leopard software and looked at my "Macintosh" file and it says it has the 10.6 version. I dont understand what I'm doing wrong. And i have already made sure countless times that I am downloading the right version of the Quicktime. If you have any suggestions please let me know. Also when i take a picture on photobooth it wont let me upload it to MySpace or Facebook or anything. HELP!!!

The upload/PhotoBooth problem? Don't know, don't use it.
However, if you can explain what you are doing and what
is happening we may be able to work it out.
"it won't let me upload" doesn't really give any detail and it
is not possible to resolve problems without details.

File format problems

i am making a movie, but most of the footage i captured over the past year or two with Adobe Premiere with a PC Computer. So when i put that footage on the timeline and try to play it back, a notice comes up that says that the footage needs to be recaptured or optimized for final cut pro. Since i cant recapture any of this footage, i need to know how to reformat this footage so i can use it. It said something about using the media manager or the compressor or something. I am very new to final cut pro so i dont understand.

Well, you can either
1. Import into FCP, put each clip on the timeline and export to the appropriate format. Reimport.
2. Open each clip in Quicktime Pro and export to the appropriate format. Import into FCP.
Cheers

Rendering File Format

I am editing in HDV 1080 60i in FCP but when I send it to Color and try to render it, my only options are ProRes or Uncompressed. Is there anyway to keep it in the HDV or Quicktime format? Thanks

Well, maybe.
There is the elusive "original format" option.
That option only appears if *every single shot* in the entire timeline is the exact same codec.
If there's a shot that differs in any way, that option goes away and you have to choose between ProRes or Uncompressed.
I'm curious, why do you want to render back to HDV? It's a lossy 4:2:0 codec - meaning you'll get generational loss compared to ProRes. I've run quite a few HDV projects through Color and ProRes is a good choice for finishing.

IWeb 08 error message "The file format is invalid"

I have been reading all of the problems regarding publishing iweb pages at the moment, I too cannot publish my site but I get a different error message
"The file format is invalid"
Can anyone help as to why I might be getting this message?
My iDisk seems to have a very old version of my website stored and I don't know where to look to find the current versions files?
Why hasn't iDisk got the most up to date version of my iWeb site and how do I get it to have?
Which folder on the iDisk should your iWeb files be stored in?
Sorry to ask so many questions but I am new to the publishing part after spending weeks building a site only to find it I get an error and my iDisk file structure holds old files.

When I opened iWeb I could see the most up-to-date version of my site, I could edit it and save it (to where I don't know). When I opened the web and sites folder on my iDisk it contained only the files from a previous version of my website created months ago.
I tried looking for the Domain file for my iWeb site and looked in my home folder, application support and then iWeb but the iWeb file in App support was empty.
I believe the iWeb file in App support is where the Domain file should be located, correct?
I have used Time machine to go back a week and have located the domain file and have restored it. The domain file now sits in the iWeb folder in App support in my Home, where it should be.
Now when I load iWeb I see the version of my website that was created a week ago which is fine but iDisk still has the old file structure of my site from months ago.
Can I delete the old file structure completely from the Sites folder on my iDisk? this should remove the old version of my website shouldn't it?
How do I get the restored version of my website to appear in iDisk?
Do I simply copy the Domain file into the sites folder on iDisk?
My iWeb files on Mobile me are also the months old versions, how do I update these so my new site is all that I can see?
Any answers to my 'File format' problem when trying to upload, is it because I don't have my iWeb files in the correct places?

Idoc File format

Hi,
1, Where can see the IDOCS file format, whether is there any possibility of having different file format for different IDOCS?
Please let me know one example for this....
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Idoc file format is flat file structue, that structure converted into idoc number format(16 degit number). If you are using file port EDI sub-system conver this file format into non-sap language format.
Thanks & Regards,

I updated my pages app on my ipad and when I tried to open a document it says the file format is invalid. None of my documents are opening pleaser help!!!!

Try this. It worked for me.
I discovered the same problem. I had an older version of Pages on my iPad. After updating it to the latest version all my previous documents created in pages for the iPad were rendered unreadable and a message stated that they were an invalid format. Why for the life of me would a program that was created by Apple and sense updated not be able to read previous versions...well that's a whole other sad story. Any way I discovered how to fix it but it would require that you had backup your iPad on a computer and not emptied your trash. If this sounds good than here is how you fix it... And it worked for me.
These steps will enable you to reinstall a previous version of the Pages app so you can be able to read and edit older documents.
FIRST: if you did backup your iPad using your computer and did not empty your trash, GOTO the trash and look for PAGES 1.4 (or other number) ipa ( that's the file extension) ie PAGES 1.4 ipa.
SECOND: move that file out of the trash and onto your desktop. Once you do this, double click on it and a box will come up stating a newer version has been found and do you want to revert back to older version. ANSWER YES. It will than automatically place and overwrite the older version back into the file on iTunes that contains the rest of your backed up apps.
THIRD: and this is where it is important that your backup would have to have been on your computer. I'm not sure if backup on the cloud will work. iCloud backup at your own risk And here's why. Before you restore you will need to remove the latest version of Pages off your iPad by doing the usual : holding down the home button until the apps wiggle and remove by pressing on X on app. Removing off your iPad will also delete all your documents but if you have a previous backup on your computer those documents will be stored safely on itunes and will return.
FORTH: plug your iPad into your computer and allow it to sync so iTunes will recognize it. Once iTunes is up and you can see that it recognizes your iPad, GOTO "FILE/DEVICES/RESTORE FROM BACKUP." ******* DO NOT CLICK ON BACKUP***** click on RESTORE FROM BACKUP. This will reinstall all previous settings and documents that were their when you backuped PLUS the older version of Pages that you placed back from the above steps. Let it run through all the setups ( this could take up to 20 minutes...depending on amount of data and photos and apps).
FIFTH: Once everything is reinstalled a message will popup on your computer stating "to leave iPad plugged in until iTunes recognizes it again" ( it's basically rebooting itself). Once done (leave iPad plugged in still) GOTO iPad and follow the steps. IMPORTANT: iPad will ask you if you want to SET IT UP AS A NEW IPAD, BACK UP FROM THE CLOUD or BACK UP FROM ITUNES.....press SET UP AS NEW IPAD. Follow all of the steps required. Once complete GOTO iTunes on computer, look for "IPAD" plus a little arrow ( should be on upper right corner of iTunes window, click on it ( this will safely disconnect your iPad from iTunes) . Now unplug iPad from computer and go to your iPad and look for the older version of Pages. It should be there along with all your old documents ( readable and editable too).
Hope this helps. Good luck.

troubleshooting QuickTime errors with After Effects

Error while opening pdf in reader in windows 8:Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format

I have a problem with a pdf file which does not open with reader in windows 8 but it opens properly with adobe pdf reader. All other pdf can be opened in reader.But when i open a pdf(see this link for pdf for which i got error http://incometaxsoft.com/temp/Form.pdf)
it gives error as "Can't open this file. There's a problem with file format".
The same file opens properly in adobe pdf reader.You can check the pdf file which i have mentioned in the link above.But the reader which comes with windows 8 can open some other pdf in the same PC.What may be the error causing this??

This has turned out to be an enormous issue for me as I sell PDF files as ebooks. I have done a fair amount of investigating this for my system.
My files have to be compatible not just across readers but across operating systems.
To date, I have over 200 PDFs that have functioned flawlessly across Mac, PC (Windows 7 and below), Android, iPhone/iPad, Linux.
I personally test my PDFs using a variety of readers and PDF editors including
PDF XChange (my favorite)
Foxit (runner up for me and I recommend for most people)
Adobe (the bloated monster)
Nitro 9 (great for moving graphical elements around)
ABBYY
And the Nuance PDF Create toolsets
Those are off the top of my head. There are a bunch on Android that I test with too.
I am running the Windows 10 Pro Tech Preview and I have this same problem so I know it isn't fixed yet in any kind of pre-release way (-sigh-)
Here is what I've learned for my situation
The PDFs I created using NUANCE'S PDF CREATE PROFESSIONAL VERSION 8
all fail using the built-in Windows 8/10 PDF reader.
When I look at the PDF properties for these Nuance created files, the underlying engine used to write them is called "ImageToPDF". Using ABBYY it indicates their own engine as does everyone else that I've tried. It is easy for you to check to see
what created your PDF by doing a "Control D" (look at the document properties). Perhaps there's a common engine causing issues.
If I use the exact same source files to create a PDF using any of my other tools I have no issues. I checked the PDF versions made by the tools and they are all set to 1.5.
A customer mentioned being able to convert them in a way they worked by saving them without having to do any kind of extraction, but I have not been able to duplicate that. Perhaps he did a "print" which seems like it could work.
In summary, the workaround everyone is talking about, using an alternate reader, of course works. But not everyone wants to change.
The culprit I have found is my Nuance PDF Creation tools that are using the ImageToPDF engine.
I hope it gets FIXED as I really don't want to have to regenerate all of my PDF files.

Suddenly non supported file format

My HDD where the project files reside crashed and after a few day's work I manage to get everything back.
Premiere Pro CS6 Crash. First "this project contained a sequence that could not be opened" And now "The file has an unsupported compression type". First issue solved but not the file system one. This is on a project I've been working on for a few months. Other software like VLC can use the files so the files seems to be ok. The problem file format is m2ts untouched from cam. And it have been working for a long time before this crash. Dedicated this weekend for the final editing of this project and now.... Sitting here with a beer and cant do nothing.....
Anyone having a few good cards up their sleeves?

First. It is not the lack of payment issue I complain about. It is the fact that when payment is not made I get "punished" by having to reinstall the whole cloud. Why isnt the restrictions alone enough? Since it goes back to trail why isnt that enough? If I cant have money on my card when it's time for the monthly payment, I should face limitations for that. That I do. But lets put this in a example. I'm away on a film job out in the field. It gets extended by a week and when I get back home the schedule for editing is down a week due to the extra filming. And since it was hectic out in the field I forgot/no time to make sure there was enough with money on the card for the subscribtion. So when I get home and have set aside time for editing around the clock I have to start with the payment issue. That is taken care of in a few seconds. But then the annoying part is starting. Uninstalling everything, downloading, installing, updating, installing plugins, updating. 100 reboots.... That is extremely annoying. A lot of inspiration for the editing project and a lot of time is lost. And for what reason?
Second. Who is going to pay the extra credit card I have to have if following your suggestion? Adobe? Probably not. You? Probably not. Meaning that the fee for the cloud went up a little for me. I understand the benefits for that function but in my case it would only be good for the cloud subscription. And that alone is not a good solution for this issue.
Third. Well I still think this is a bug, unless Adobe have this function implemented to punish people who doesnt pay on time. Then naturally it is not a bug. Maybe Adobe can answer if this is a function that they like or if this is a bug?
Fourth. If I should get punished why not having a re activation fee instead? I would gladly pay a few bucks to get the software funcioning directly after I pay my subscribtion. That would benefit both me and Adobe. Why sabotage my work? Who is gaining from that?
Fifth. I have no proof for this. But I also do not want to try it again next month. The time to un-install and re-install is to expencive right now. If I'm wrong I will crawl to the altar and say I'm sorry. But It would also be nice if Adobe did the same if they are wrong.
