Shot in 4:3 need to create in 16:9

I've shot some material in 4:3, the client is going to buy a flat screen monitor for playback in his bakery, since most flat screens are 16:9 I would like to assemble the sequence to take advantage of the full width, an example might be putting the 4:3 video in the center of the screen while fading in stills to either side or showing 2 angles of the same shot side by side. Are there any special considerations I need to take other than setting up an anamorphic sequence?
Oh, and eventually it needs to go to PAL.
Thanks,
James

Here's a thought: (I'm making up the numbers for illustration only)
You shoot 4x3 so your image is, say 600 wide and 450 pixels high. You drop that into a 16x9 wide screen project that is, say 800 pixels wide and 450 high. You either leave it in a box or you scale it up and crop off the top and bottom as your sides reach the edges. So you're throwing away a bunch of your horizontal lines, say 100 of them, AND you're blending the remaining lines together to fill in the greater number of horizontal lines that are available. You're blowing up 500 lines to fit into 800 lines and this will diminish your image quality dramatically.

Need help creating landscape in AE

Hi, I need to create an animation of a train moving through different landscape scenes. I want the hills to be an actual 3D rendering with the train moving through them but I am unsure how to do this. I am familiar with 3D and can create the hills in my 3D application but how do I get my 3D hill into AE so the train, camera and lights etc. can interact with the hill?
1. How do i get my 3D hill into AE?
2. How do I add the train so it goes around the hills?
3. How do I get the camera and lights etc. to reflect on my 3D hill?

First of all, it would be very helpful to post an example of the kind of look you're going for or a similar shot you're trying to recreate. In animation there are limitless ways of making things so it really helps to be very specific. For now I can advise this much...
1. Render your hills out of your 3D application as an image sequence that supports transperancy if you want to layer them or you want the sky to show up behind them.
2. If you want the train to go around the hills, it really depends on how you make the train. Are you also rendering that in a 3D app?
3. I don't know what you mean by getting the camera to reflect, but when you make a layer 3D, After Effects shows the Material Options settings that allow you to control how your layers react to different lighting setups.

It is within the table I believe (I'm not a DBA or a developer) since I created a BLOB column and then used the file browse feature to allow users to attach a resume to the table in order to be able to perform a search of the attached documents.
I'm just having a hard time pointing the link in the search results report to the document in the blob column.
The information on that page is great if you're trying to create a link to the document on the initial report.
But I created a query using Oracle Text to run a report that does a boolean search of the attached word documents in the table.
When it displays the search results, it doesn't create a link to the document and I can't figure out how to do it.
Here's a link the the instructions I used to create the initial search report with Oracle Text, mind you I only created the index and query, I didn't add in all the link data since they're using documents on websites and I'm using documents in a table.

Help needed to create Quik Time VR movies, step by step

Hello,
thank you for your attenction.
I need to create Quick time vr movies, and I need to know the exact sequance of steeps to do it, and if the starting point I use is correct.
1) I shooted a sequence of photos with my digital camera (for example: www.stebianchi.com/quicktimevrhelp/still-photo.jpg).
2) Then, with photoshop (CS4) I choose: Automate/photomerge and I select all them to joint them in a bigger 360° panoramic one (www.stebianchi.com/quicktimevrhelp/pan.jpg). If, untill here, all is correct, the first question: in photoshop Photomerge layout option, do I have to choose one voice "auto, perspective, cylindrical, spherical, etc..." rather than anoter one of these?
3) from here, I really need your help.
First of all: the great doubt:
My photos can not cover a spherical panorama, they're only a "ring" around a center (and not a spherical texture). To cover all the surface (or almost all, ok...) of my ambient, do I have to use a wider lens on my camera or there is a different solution (for ex a vertical photomerge?).
4) Done this, I think I shuold buy a software like Cubic converter, to set and export the QTVR movie. Right?
Thanks a lot guys,
all the best!
Stefano

You can call your local apple store(find one on the home page of apple.com) and they will give you instructions how to convert DVD to iPod. That is what they told me, but from what I heard, you may need more than Quicktime Pro. Just call and ask them, because if you make a manual of how to do it, it could help me a lot.
(I'm looking for a good DVD converter, already know some, beside the internet download ones)

Need To Create a table in Sql Server and do some culculation into the table from Oracle and Sql

Hello All,

and Diff(OracleRowsCount - SqlRowCount) that will tell me the each table how many rows i have in Oracle, how many rows i have in SQL after ETL load, and different between them, something like that:

(I can add alot of SQL Tasks and variables per each table but it not seems logicly to do that, i tryid to find a way to deal with that in vb but i didn't find)
What the simplest way to do it ?
Thank you
Best Regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
According to your description, what you want is an indicator to show whether all the rows are inserted to the destination table. To achieve your goal, you can add a Row Count Transformation following the OLE DB Destination, and redirect bad rows to the Row
Count Transformation. This way, we can get the count of the bad rows without redirecting these rows. Since the row count value is stored in a variable, we can create another string type variable to retrieve the row count value from the variable used by the
Row Count Transformation, and then use a Send Mail Task to send the row count value in an email message body. You can also insert the row count value to the SQL Server table through Execute SQL Task. Then, you can check whether bad rows were generated in the
package by querying this table.

Yes, the email addresses need to be unique to each device. You may use the same Apple ID on each device, but the email address used by each device needs to be different.

New to applescript. need to create a plist file using applescript

Needed some help I need on creatinga plist file below using applescript and I can't make it happen needed some hand on this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">

<dict>
<key>Username</key>
<string>${userName}</string>
<key>Password</key>
<string>${userPassword}</string>
</dict>
</array>
</dict>
</plist>
I have tis code but it doesn't seems to work.
tell application "System Events"
-- create an empty property list dictionary item
          set the parent_dictionary to make new property list item with properties {kind:record}
-- create new property list file using the empty dictionary list item as contents
          set the plistfile_path to "~/Desktop/example.plist"
          set this_plistfile to ¬
make new property list file with properties {contents:parent_dictionary, name:plistfile_path}
-- add new property list items of each of the supported types
make new property list item at end of property list items of contents of this_plistfile ¬
                    with properties {kind:string, name:"Username", value:"${localAdminUser}"}
make new property list item at end of property list items of contents of this_plistfile ¬
                    with properties {kind:string, name:"Password", value:"${localAdminPassword}"}
make new property list item at end of property list items of contents of this_plistfile ¬
                    with properties {kind:list, name:"AdditionalUsers"}
make new property list item at end of property list items of contents of this_plistfile ¬
                    with properties {kind:string, name:"Username", value:"${localAdminUser}"}
make new property list item at end of property list items of contents of this_plistfile ¬
                    with properties {kind:string, name:"Password", value:"${localAdminPassword}"}
end tell
The result of the above code will generate a plist file below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">

<dict>
          <key>AdditionalUsers</key>
          <array/>
          <key>Password</key>
          <string>${localAdminPassword}</string>
          <key>Username</key>
          <string>${localAdminUser}</string>
</dict>
</plist>

Hello
You need to create elements at correct container. Like this.
set plist_file to (path to desktop)'s POSIX path & "example.plist"
--set plist_file to "~/desktop/example.plist"
tell application "System Events"
    tell (make new property list file with properties {name:plist_file})
        make new property list item at end with properties {kind:string, name:"Username", value:"${localAdminUser}"}
        make new property list item at end with properties {kind:string, name:"Password", value:"${localAdminPassword}"}
        tell (make new property list item at end with properties {kind:list, name:"AdditionalUsers"})
            tell (make new property list item at end with properties {kind:record})
                make new property list item at end with properties {kind:string, name:"Username", value:"${localAdminUser}"}
                make new property list item at end with properties {kind:string, name:"Password", value:"${localAdminPassword}"}
            end tell
        end tell
    end tell
end tell
Or you may create a record in AppleScript and set the value of plist file at once. Like this.
set plist_file to (path to desktop)'s POSIX path & "example.plist"
--set plist_file to "~/desktop/example.plist"
set dict to ¬
    {|Username|:"${localAdminUser}", |Password|:"${localAdminPassword}"} & ¬
    {|AdditionalUsers|:{¬
        {|Username|:"${localAdminUser}", |Password|:"${localAdminPassword}"} ¬
--set dict to {|Username|:"${localAdminUser}", |Password|:"${localAdminPassword}", |AdditionalUsers|:{{|Username|:"${localAdminUser}", |Password|:"${localAdminPassword}"}}}
tell application "System Events"
    tell (make new property list file with properties {name:plist_file})
        set value to dict
    end tell
end tell

How many DNS record need to create in Internal & external DNS server for exchange?

Hi friends,
I recently installed Exchange Server 2010 in my organization for testing purpose and I've register a pubic ip too for exchange server on godaddy.com. How many
internal & External DNS records reqired to configure on external & Internal dns server so my all feature like Auto-discover, Activ -sync,& webmail start working perfectly.
It's my first time configuring exchange for a organization.
Thanks & Regards,
Pradeep Chaugule

Hi,
Just as what ManU Philip said, you need to create
Autodiscovery.domaincom and mail.domain.com for external dns server.
Generally, you configure your Exchange Servers as DNS clients of your internal DNS server.
Refer from:

Do I need to create a view for this?

Hi Ihave got 2 tables emp and project
In emp tabe:
emp_no
family name
given name
In porgect table:
emp_no
status(assigned,unassigned)
start_date
end_date
emp_no Family_name given_name
1 Smith John
In project table same employee can have many assigement eg
emp_no status start_date end_date
1 assigned 01-may-08 01-july-08
1 assigned 01-sep-08 01-july-09
1 unassigned 01-july-09 01-oct-09
In the form:
there are 2 querable fields "project ends between field1(date) and field2(date)" which is used to
retrive records which have end date between field1 and field2.
The following fields are needed to get from database:
emp.family_name emp.given_name project.start_date project.end_date No.of time assigned
Requirements:
1. project.start_date and project.end_date must be the latest project_end_date for the same emp
so in the above sample date
2. No. of time assigned is a count of total of number records which have status='assign'
So for the given sample data the record expected after query would be(field1=01-jun-08 field2=02-july-09)
emp.family_name emp.given_name project.start_date project.end_date No.of time assigned
Smith John 01-sep-08 01-july-09 2
What is the best approach to get:
1 The lastest project(latest end_date) for the emp
2. get No.of time assigned.
Do I need to create a view for this? If yes, any sample sql code this this?
Thanks for your help

Hi W1zard,
Thanks for your reply. Could you clarify the following points for me:
1.) you could create a master block basing on your emp table and a detail block basing on your project table with the relation over emp_no. set the default_where clause of your detail block programmatically using
set_block_property('project', default_where, 'status = ''assigned'' and <your_date_criteria>');
Q1: where I pit this code? in pre-query trigger in detail block?
2.) Of course you could create a view to join both of your tables if you don't want to use master detail blocks; Also do the join over emp_no
create or replace force view v_emp as
select emp.family_name, emp.given_name, project.start_date, project.end_date
from emp, project
where emp.emp_no = project.emp_no
Q2 As I mentioned before, there are multipal entries for the same emp in project table and we only need the maching record from project table which has latest end_date. So I think I need something like
max(project.end_date) somewhere in create view to make sure only one record for one employee.
Also is there possible to include the no. of assigned field(select count(*) from project where status='assigned' and emp=emp_no) into the view as well?
Q3 All the fields mentioned above are diaplay-only. So Can I create a control block which has all the fields from emp and project. Then populate them with my sql. The question is
where I put this customerised sql so when user click excute query. My sql will run and display one the form?
REally appreciated your help!

How do I move all my files from one User Profile (account) into another?
I needed to create a new account and want all of my files accessible in the new one.

ok, what you're learning right now is 101 unix, which is good. Unix is a good thing
now: the way unix works, and macos (which uses unix underneath) the files and folders work like a hierarchy.
the start of that tree is /
so, if you were to do:
cd /
(cd means change directory)
it will bring you at the highest branch of the file system.
cd /Users
will bring you to where all the users are.
to see whats in /Users you can use your friend ls command
ls means list files/directories
so:
cd /Users
ls -la
(the -la here means show all (even hidden) and long format (very verbose)) this flag is very optional.
you will see
fred
user2
for example.
if you want to see the desktop of user2 you would change directory to it then list the files.
for example:
cd /Users/user2/Desktop
Note that the files and directory are case sensitive, so, desktop is NOT the same as Desktop, or DESKTOP
ls -la
you should then be able to see everything in users2 desktop
you could have done as well the same thing in smaller steps, for example:
cd /
cd Users
cd user2
cd Desktop
this is the equivalent of cd /Users/user2/Desktop
So, for your file, i don't know where it was, but know that if you log in as user2, it will directly put you in
/Users/user2
which most likely the file you had created from the other user was in /Users/user1
if you copied all the files from /Users/original_user to /Users/secondUser
most likely yes, all your mail, bookmarks etc would be copied over.
so in your case.
sudo chown -R seconduser:staff /Users/secondUser
should work
Remember that if you start a path with the character / it means start from the root of the file system, at the highest top you can ever get.
so
cd /Users/fred
is not the same as
cd Users/fred
unless you were in / already
i know it may be confusing at first but it's actually very logical if you play with it.
to simplify, think of it that / means C:\ on windows
you can't go any higher than C:\ (in a way)
if you're unsure which directory you're currently in, you can always type:
pwd
it will tell you where you are.
for example:
cd /
pwd
this shows /
cd Users
pwd
this now shows /Users
cd /System/Library
pwd will show /System/Library
cd /
cd /Users
cd fred
cd Library
pwd will show /Users/fred/Library
unix can look very scary but it's actually vital and very necessary to do tasks sometimes that would take for ever to do via the windows. This is good learning.
so for the myfile you had created, i can't tell you where it is, at the time you created, if you can do a pwd command you'll know the path,
ls -la (this shows all the files where you are)
if you see myfile in the list
do a pwd
whatever is return, the real location of the file would be:
whatever pwd returned / myfile
I hope that makes sense.
