Replacing assets in the project. without losing chapter marks.

From a workflow point of view, this is not a proper way, but since I'm a mere hobbyist, not so much of an issue.
From PP I export an M2V file and an AC3 file, import those as assets into the Encore project, create a timeline, set my chapter markers, create a moving menu, render, great. No problem.
Then I decide to change something in my timeline, so back to PP, modify my timeline, export again and then....
b Try to replace assets
but that does not work as I expect. (The manual and help file are rather abbreviated on these topics). Either I lose all my previous markers or I get a second clip right after the first one on my timeline, or - even worse - I get, after renaming files in Explorer, new assets on my timeline with the correct length, but cannot extend my timeline to reflect the length that is shown in the project window.
A second problem I have encountered is that there is no way to save markers, no way to replace an asset in a timeline without losing all markers and, after creating new markers, having them revert to the default names and forgetting all the previously set names and links. Effectively, you have to start all over.
What is the best way, once you have a timeline with chapter markers on them, to replace your asset?
Any suggestions? TIA

This is not the first time I am re-thinking my work flow to match the way Adobe designed their software . . . conforming if you will.
Based on the way Premiere and Encore is designed, I think Adobe is expecting ALL changes to the video content to be completely ironed out, video set in stone, before adding chapter markers and exporting to Encore . . . as if adding chapters is part of the DVD burning process rather than part of the video itself. I have been around long enough to understand where that thinking comes from, but it is not very visionary thinking oh great architects of Adobe.
Conforming my work flow: (high level work flow)
1> burn DVD without chapters
2> customer reviews the video content without chapters
3> customer submits change requests
4> goto step one until no video content change requests
----- architectural divide ----
5> Still in Premiere, add chapters & export to Encore
6> Now in Encore, edit chapter text
7> set the poster frames
6> burn DVD with chapters
7> customer reviews chapter information
8> customer submits chapter change requests
9> goto step six until no chapter content change rquests
This is the workflow I will use conform, but it is not the workflow I want to use. Two reasons:
1> I want my customer to have the convienience of using chapters during the video review process.
2> I do not want to put my customer through two aproval processes.

  • I have a new iPod Touch and one apple ID. I want to use My laptop aswell as my desktop computer for the one ipod, using the same apple ID. I have music on both computers and want to merge the two without losing any music or apps. How do I do this?

    I have a new iPod Touch and one apple ID. I want to use My laptop aswell as my desktop computer for the one ipod, using the same apple ID. I have music on both computers and want to merge the two without losing any music or apps. How do I do this?
    My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
    Thanks.

    - You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
    Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
    - If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
    go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

    If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

    In the middle of downloading an update for garage band and lost the connection, now the app won't open or finish the download.  Can I reinstall the app without losing my music?

    The obvious way to resolve this on a computer would be to uninstall the app, then reinstall it, however on an iOS device that would cause all the data assoicated with the app to be thrown away.
    Make sure your iTunes library has the latest updates for all your apps, then backup and restore the device. This should pull back a fresh copy of the app from your iTunes library and then give it the data from your device backup.

    To update your phone requires using the latest version of iTunes, on your computer, as well as Internet access. The update to iOS 5.0 or higher is an erase/restore deal, so you not only have to make sure all of the content, currently on your phone, is on your computer and accessible, you need to update iTunes first, have Internet access, then update your phone. There is no way around this fact. You could go to an Apple store or use another computer, but you run the risk of losing all of your data it you do that.

  • How can I change the tempo (and the snap grid) of the project without altering the duration of the original audio clips?

    This question is for Logic Express.
    I have many very short audio clips that I recorded into my project.
    I want to adjust the project tempo so that I can use the snap grid to make a beat out of my short audio clips. But when I change the project tempo, it automatically adjusts the lengths of my audio clips.
    So how can I change the tempo (and the snap grid) of the project without altering the original audio clips?

    The reason some files sound funny and others don't is because audio is handled a few different in Garageband depending on it's source (audio your recorded vs Apple Loops vs non Apple Loop pre recorded audio). Each of these have different color regions with different properties.  I just found this thread that might better explain it:

    How do I change the e-mail address default on the icloud without losing the contacts saved?

    Each iCloud account can only have a single iCloud email account.  As such, you can't have a different email account on your iPod if it is using the same iCloud account. 
    You can create additional alias email addresses within this iCloud account, but they will all receive email in the same inbox as the primary icloud email address.

    I got my iPhone disabled mistakenly by six trials of entering pass code. However now I remembered  my passcode so how can fix the problem without losing my contents.

    If your phone is now disabled, you've already lost all data on the phone...that's the whole point of the passcode, to protect the data on the phone. Your only choice now is to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it, as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    This will remove the passcode, but also erase all data on the phone unless you have a backup to restore from.

    THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED FOR ME.
    When I opened this pop-up to view the settings (File > Page Setup > "Format & Options": Scale ), the Scale value was 40%. Changing it to 100% corrected the issue I observed.
    To my knowledge, I have not been inside this pop-up window before to set the Scale option. Could this value be affected by other actions within Firefox? I noticed this while using v12 which was installed 24Apr2012.I know it worked correctly since that installation, so why did the Scale value change?
    UPDATE: I just realized that the Scale option in print preview sets the Scale value in the settings. NOTE TO ALL: This is a sticky setting, not just a setting for a specific output request.

  • I duplicated a picture and now iPhoto (11) is cloning that picture replacing all the other photos and only when I click directly on them I can see the real picture! How can I solve the problem without losing any saved picture? Shall I re-install? Thanx

    I duplicated a picture selecting CMD and D but, suddenly, iPhoto (latest version '11) started cloning that picture and replacing all the other photos with it.
    Only when I click directly on one photo I can open it and see the real picture it is.
    But the preview is always the duplicated one...
    I tryed to duplicate another picture just to see if it turned out ok but the only changement was the duplicated picture!
    I started repeating the second duplicated one instead of the previous one but my issue remained the same.
    So, how can you help me to solve this problem without losing any saved picture?
    Shall I re-install iPhoto completely?
    Thank you very very much in advance!!

    As Larry says, restoring the back up is the fastest and best solution. Otherwise:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • How to resize project without losing the image resolution?

    I am trying to resize a project that recorded in 1271 x 768
    px to 800 x 483 px. I did it by clicked 'Project' > 'Resize
    Project...'. But after resize, the resolution of the movie is not
    clear, became blur. How to resize the project so that I'll have
    clearer movie? Thanks.

    Hi obtis and welcome to our community
    Unfortunately, there is little you may do to avoid this. The
    best way to avoid it is to simply record initially at the size you
    need so you don't have to use the Resize function.
    Here's the deal. Captivate stores images in the project as
    bitmapped images. Otherwise known as "raster" images. Basically
    they are a mosaic that comprises the picture. Initially, all is
    well and is crystal clear. But when you scale down a raster or
    bitmapped image, you are simply moving all the picture elements
    (PixEls) closer together. They overlap and the computer will
    calculate new values for what color they should be. Depending on
    how much you are resizing, the clarity drop can be acceptable or
    horribly bad. The more you resize smaller the worse it gets.
    Hopefully this helps... Rick

  • HT204053 I changed my apple id and changed it in all of my settings except for iCloud. The iCloud app will only let me change the password to an account that no longer exists. How do I change the id without losing all of my information stored on the cloud

    How do I change my apple Id for iCloud without losing my information I already stored? I tried going into settings then ICloud but it would not let me change my apple id only my password.

    If you renamed your iCloud ID and need to change it on your device, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then sign back in with the new ID.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos, save them to your camera roll (if not already there) before deleting the account.  To do this, open your my photo stream album, tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll.

  • Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Organizing assets in the Project panel

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/organizing-assets-project-panel.html

    If you have opened a 5.5 project in CS6 you may experience the project panel search filter to go gray and restrict availability.
    Try to save and restart.
    If this doesn't work, then try to start a new PProCS6 project and import the 5.5 one, be sure to select "Entire Project" at the dialog box.
    Other people have noticed this too. It might be related to unindexed items - if Premiere Pro CS6 doesn't finish indexing the clips, it won't let you search. This is something that may require a bug report. See the link below.

  • Is it possible to resize the partitions without losing data?

    I have following issue:
    I have dual-boot Arch with Windows XP. I created 4 partitions: 40GB XP's system disk (ntfs), 80GB ntfs data disk, 1GB swap and 25GB Linux partition.
    But I am running XP so rarely, that it is frustrating, that I have most of my data on ntfs partition... I'd like to wipe out that 80GB ntfs, resize the system ntfs partition up to for example 60GB, and add the remaining 60GB to my linux ext3 partition (because I'm running out of free space recently...).
    Has anyone done something like this, and how safe it is (if possible at all)
    Yes, I have read this: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Res … _partition, and a few more.
    I just don't have time to reinstall both systems (especially I would not like to install Windows, because I'd rather install Vista from my recovery disk, than hack the XP to work again...), and if some issues are likely to appear, then I'll give it up for now .

    It's trivial using gparted, but as with any similar operation, you run the risk of losing data - so you'd better backup.

  • Issues on Copying the Project without Project Stock Checked

    Hi,
    When I copy the operative project (with project stock unchecked and components assigned to the activity in this project) to create a new project, I checked the project stock in the master data of the new project. Although the new component assigned after the creation of the new porject is project stock, the component copied from the operative project is still not project stock.
    Is there any walkaround or solution to make the copied component to become a project stock?
    Thanks,
