Shooting in 30p vs. 24P vs 24P advanced? / sequence settings

I'm using a Panasonic DVX 100 camera. (i'm new to it) Sorry if these are naïve questions, but I need help.
Not sure what the difference is if I should shoot in 30p/24p/24p advanced?
If I shot in any of the three, do I use different settings when I import?
Also, how do I set the sequence settings for the best results?
I appreciate your guidance...

Whether you shoot in 30p or 24p depends on what your style of filming. Hands down 24p is going to look the most like modern day cinema, but you need to make sure there is plenty of light, and also watch a bunch of movement. Basically you are looking at the difference between packing 24 frames in a second, or 30 frames in a second. Most of the time, so long as you aren't doing massive pans you will be fine with 24p. For me, I do a bunch of shoulder mounted filming, so I use 30p to make sure I don't get any "slideshow" effects if I decide to slow it down or maybe pan across the horizon. If you film in 24p, you want to capture in 24p. You can do an easy setup for HDV 1080p 24 or 720p 24 depending on what reso you are filming at.
Usually the question comes between 24p and 60i. If you are ever going to have a bunch of movement, or intend on doing slow motion at all, 60i is a much better result. You can always color the film later to get a cinematic effect. Hope this is helpful. (and true..)

FCP sequence settings when shooting 24p, 2:3:3:2 at 16x9?

I'm attempting to edit my first feature project on FCP after having shot footage on a canon xl2 at 24p, 2:3:3:2 and using the 16:9 frame size.
Can't find specifics about the proper FCP settings anywhere in the manual for editing footage shot this way. So I'm wondering-- since the captured footage shows up in the browser as 720x480, should the sequence setting be dialed in the same? Also should I be editing in the timeline with sequence settings at NTSC DV (3:2)and the anamorphic 16:9 box checked?
Oh... and one more thing-- how much memory would you guys recommend be allocated to the fcp application (i'm guessing less than 100%)and how much to the thumbnails?
I've got my notions on all this but am a little nervous about going forward without some reassurance. Appreciate any help you can offer on these questions.

You're best off creating a new, custom Easy Setup to meet your needs...
Press Option-Command-Q to launch the Audio/Video Settings dialog
Select the Sequence Presets tab, then...
Click DV-NTSC 48 kHz - 23.98 and press Duplicate
In the Sequence Preset Editor, check the Anamorphic 16:9 box
Rename this Sequence Preset to DV-NTSC 48 kHz - 23.98 Anamorphic and click OK
Back in the Sequence Settings tab, place a checkmark next to your newly created sequence preset to select it as your current preset
Select the Capture Presets tab, and repeat the previous sub-steps for DV-NTSC 48 kHz Advanced Pulldown Removal
(that is, duplicate, adjust for Anamorphic, rename, then select as your preset)
Select the Summary tab and confirm that you've got the correct presets for all selections - outside of what you've adjusted already, Device Control as well as Video Playback should be set to FireWire NTSC - then click the Create Easy Setup button
Enter a name and description, then click OK
After you've saved your preset, click OK to exit Audio/Video Settings
You've now got your system up and running correctly so that you can digitize and edit.
If, for any reason, you screw up your settings, you've now got an Easy Setup that you can simply access at anytime, simple press Control-Q and select it from the options. Or if you're a menubar person, that's Final Cut Pro > Easy Setup.
Oh... and one more thing-- how much memory would you guys recommend be allocated to the fcp application (i'm guessing less than 100%)and how much to the thumbnails?
Personally, I leave mine at 100% - never had a problem with it. However, many here advise dialing it down to 70% or so (if I can remember correctly - hopefully someone else will chime in if I'm wrong).
The default thumbnail value is fine as well, in my experience.

Help with 24p capture/sequence settings and interlace artifacts

We are trying to capture sd video shot on a panasonic DVX 100B at 24p (not advanced) using FCP 6.02.
The video was shot anamorphic (squeeze) through the camera.
We have tried a variety of capture and sequence setting and continue to get varying degrees of artifact (lines) at motion points (e.g. when a hand moves).
We have tried:
Capture Easy set-up 29.97
Capture Anamorphic 29.97
We have tried changing field dominance to none.
We have experimented with both interlace and progressive scan.
We have experimented with different playback units including the camera shot with.
Would love some advice on best capture sequence settings. Playback will be computer/video projector.

It's sounds like you've been mislead about what 24p (as opposed to 24p Advanced) actually is on tape - it's interlaced 29.97 footage. So, what you're seeing is normal - there should be three progressive frames followed by 2 interlaced frames (since it's pulldown added to 23.98 material).
So, to get to the heart of your question, you are capturing correctly - Anamorphic 29.97.
If you want true progressive output, strip the pulldown - use Cinema Tools - and edit as 23.98. Otherwise, if you can't go 23.98, you're stuck with what you've got.

Command to set modify Advanced Security Settings (Audit Settings for folders) on windows 2008

Hello,
We have requirement to modify Advanced Security Settings (Audit Settings for folders) on windows 2008. I am looking for a command which does this job.
I know, using group policies I can do this; in fact I had done this using group policies. However, I need to do this on number of servers which are not in domain. There are around 15 folders on which I need to enable Auditing; manual editing folder advanced
permissions is a cumbersome job. Hence, I am looking for a command line options.
I need to know how command can be utilised to enable Audit option on a folder. Please share a command which can do this; once I get the command, I will create a batch file for other necessary folders. (BTW, this is not a scripting question, I just need to
know the command hence, please do not re-direct me to scripting forum)
Manually through GUI, I am setting following.. snaps are given below
Thanks !

You can try using Auditpol.exe: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731451%28v=ws.10%29.aspx

Thanks !

No longer able to access the "Advanced" options via the Inspector Chart Series Advanced sequence

In iWorks9 Numbers in attempting to add trendline to a line chart I am suddenly no longer able to access the options under "Advanced" via the Click On Chart Line>Inspector>Chart>Series>Advanced sequence because the triangle button adjacent to Advanced is not highlighted and does not open up when clicked upon. Ideas?

well ... I spent some time this afternoon repairing disk permissions, checking application preferences, etc. and don't think I found anything directly related to this problem but after a few hours I returned to Numbers and lo and behold something changed and everything is working fine ... and I have no idea what was the cause and what was the fix but I'll take it. Heisenberg was right.

How can I access Advanced Javascript Settings?

I'm aware that, in recent versions of Firefox, the ability to disable Javascript has been removed. I don't intend to re-open discussion of that particular decision. But removing that option has also removed access to the Advanced Javascript Settings menu, which was far more useful than simply disabling Javascript itself. For example, although I rarely disabled Javascript entirely (other than when debugging my own site), I routinely disabled the ability of websites to disable context menus or to move and resize pop-up windows.
Unlike disabling Javascript entirely, these are settings which provide a positive benefit for "ordinary" (non-developer) users. If, say, I want to open a link in a new tab, then the correct way to do that is to right-click on it. Sites which disable right-click degrade the user experience, and allowing a way to override that is a good thing. Whatever the justification for removing the ability to disable Javascript entirely (and I do understand it, even if I don't agree with it), I can't see any justification for removing access to these advanced settings.
So my question is, how can I re-enable access to the Advaned javascript Settings? I can't see any obvious setting for it in about:config, and simply disabling javascript entirely via that method isn't what I want to do.

The href value javascript:void(0) is a placeholder to be shown when you hover a link, so you can see that this is not a normal link.<br />
The actual action is done via an onclick handler that is tied to the button (link), so if this isn't working then this can be caused by a script that didn't run properly to add this onclick action to the button or that JavaScript is blocked on that website possibly by an extension.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Note that there is also security software that can block pop-ups and JavaScript, so check that as well.
Boot the computer in Windows Safe Mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that helps.

In Firefox 2.0+ you can go to Advanced JavaScript Settings and check a box to allow scripts to change status bar text. How do I do this is Firefox 10.0.1?

Two items in the Advanced JavaScript window were removed as of the Firefox 4.0 version, but they are still available thru about:config .
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
Filter = '''dom.disable_window_status_change''' = double-click to toggle to '''false''' to allow websites to mess with status text.

Acrobat Pro - advanced print settings

Sequence settings advanced tab

I'm working on PAL DVCAM 16:9 in FCP 7. Looking at the advanced tab in compresson settings (within sequence settings) does anyone know if it matters whether 4:3 or 16:9 is selected. I've been working foir a while always in 16:9 and have only recently noticed the setting. Printing to tape and exporting a quicktime it doesn't seem to make a difference except that when I play a 16:9 .mov in QT player with 4:3 selected that's how it plays until I adjust then save presentation settings in QT player. On the one hand its an 16:9 picture (anamorphic) on the other hand it's only got the same pixel count as a 4:3 frame. Don't want to discover a problem down the line that I just don't happen to have bumped into yet.

It is just yet another way to toggle between aspect ratios. You can also tick the anamorphic column in the browser, or choose an anamorphic easy setup.

Setting "Advanced security settings" on an OU using Powershell

Hello,
I have been tasked to create an OU with the simular permissions as another. On the current OU, the admin1 acount has special permissions (set within the Advanced Security Settings). For the new OU, they want a new admin2 account to have the same permissions
on the OU as admin1 has on the current OU.
I was able to extract the OU permissions using the following Powershell script:
Get-QADObject 'OU=Temp,OU=,OU=Group,DC=Department,DC=Company,DC=com' -SecurityMask Dacl -sizelimit 0 |
Get-QADPermission -Inherited -SchemaDefault |
Select-Object account, rights, source, appliesto |
Sort-Object account |
Export-Csv c:\temp\report.csv -NoTypeInformation
However, Powershell script did not provide the "Advanced Security Settings". Therefore, I am looking for a couple Powershell commands that:
1. Copies the permission entries of the Advanced Security Settings Properties on an OU
or
2. Sets the permission entries of the Advanced Security Settings Properties on an OU
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please try with the following code to copy the atestuser1's ACL on TempOU1 and assign atestuser2 on TempOU2. Please be advised to test in your lab/test environment first. I tested only once. :)

$user1 = 'adatum\atestuser1'
$ou2 = [adsi]"LDAP://OU=TempOU2,dc=adatum,dc=lab"
$user2 = 'adatum\atestuser2'

"Authentication Type" greyed out in Advanced Wireless Settings (WRT54G)

I wish to change my Authentication Type from Auto to Shared Key in my Wireless -> Advanced Wireless Settings section of my web-based admin utility. However, it's been greyed out for some reason.
I understand that the Shared Key mode is more secure than the Auto mode, therefore I wish to change it. Would anyone happen to know as to why this would be greyed out like this and how I can fix it so that I can have access to the options? I'm using WRT54G V.6 with firmware v.1.01.1 (the latest one from linksys). TIA.

I think I figured it out. I'm currently using WPA Personal mode and as I understand it, only WEP mode applies to whether you're using an Open System or Shared Key. Can someone please confirm this for me? TIA.

Can one set up Lightroom to allow use of manufacturer's printer profiles and Advanced Color Settings

I like the effects that I can apply to my B&W images using Advanced Color Settings, but understand that I get best print quality using the manufacturer's paper profiles. However, I get locked out of Advanced Color Settings unless I choose "Managed by Printer". Can I do both - select a specific paper profile and use Advanced Color Settings? Thanks

I don't know what printer you are using. But if you want to use all of the controls in the Lightroom print module you need to let Lightroom manage the color. For my printer, this requires making that choice in Lightroom and then disabling color management in the printer driver. Then, using Lightroom, I am able to use all of those settings and choose the appropriate profile provided by the paper manufacturer.
With my printer, if I choose to let the printer manage the color, I can make all of those choices in the printer driver. But you cannot split your management between Lightroom and your printer. You have to go one way or the other.

Advanced print settings not working in cs6

Since updating to Yosemite, I cannot access the advanced print settings for my Epson 3880. I have the latest driver for the 3880. No longer can select the paper, profile, etc.

Problem Solved:
After uninstalling a previous version of Labview Runtime from the target machines and installing the newest version (which is consistent with my development environment) on the target machines, the Print Report.vi and all other report generation VI's I use seem to work fine.
Also important is to make sure that the lvrt.msi file on the development machine is up to date and consistent with the version of runtime on the target machines. This does not update automatically when upgrading to a newer version of labview (at least not when I updated from 6i to 6.02). It must be manually downloaded and inserted into the proper folder.
Thank you Ray at NI support.

Need clarity on advanced airport settings please.

I have an intel imac ( n), macbook (n) , iphone (g), apple tv (n) and airport express running a set of speakers.
I have just upgraded to a new dual band AEBS from the old UFO one.
All works really well, and macbook to mac speeds seem 3-4x faster. All good.
BUT, confused about one of the advanced manual settings - "wireless network options".
Radio mode and radio channel are set to automatic, but I went into WNO and selected 5GHZ network name. Now I see 2 networks on my imac - the normal one and the 5GHZ one.
Does this mean that I have to manually select the correct network now, or will the devices jump from g to n as required?
Is there any point of having the second network named? or does this force compatible units to use the faster speed?
It all works, I just want to get the best out of it.
Ta.

That is correct. You would now have to manually point the wireless client to which network you wanted them to connect to.
Is there any point of having the second network named? or does this force compatible units to use the faster speed?
One of the reasons you may want to have two separate Network Names is to "force" a wireless client that is capable of connecting to either to connect to a particular radio instead. Another is that you want to use each network for a different reason. For example, you may want to use the higher bandwidth 5 GHz network for streaming video or for gaming, and then, dedicate the lower bandwidth (but greater range) 2.4 GHz network for general computing and Internet access.

Where have the Quicktime advanced export settings gone in Keynote 6.3?

Where have the Quicktime advanced export settings gone in Keynote 6.3?
In previous versions, it was possible to select numerous options and setting to export a high quality Quicktime video.

The new version 6 and the previous version 5 can both be installed, many users use both to utilise the different features. If you had the previous version installed and have not deleted it is located in iWorks in the Applications folder. If you don't have the previous version it is available from Ebay.
