Third Party Plugins Stripped Out After Editing/Saving

Hello All,
I'm really hoping someone can help.
Ok here's the tech stuff:
Workflow-
Mac - OS 10.4.9, InDesign CS3 5.0.2
Windows - XP InCopy CS3 5.0.2
Plugins used in InDesign (Mac) AutoPrice (Meadows Pub.) & Sonar Indexing (Virginia Systems)
These 2 plugins are vital to our Catalogs.
What I'm seeing,...
I export stories (copy blocks) in InDesign for editing in InCopy on the Windows Machine.
I open up the same document in InCopy (windows) to test, edit some copy, save, check in, close.
Now, open this same document again in InDesign (Mac), copy updates needed, update the copy, but wait! all of the Third Party Markers are gone!
Everything that was tagged, or marked for the Index, and all the Pricing Tags are gone.
I've found out when the InCopy document is saved, this is when this happens. It strips out all Third party invisible text, placeholders, etc...
WHAT???
I can't believe we're the only one's in the world having this issue. And its hard to believe Adobe would even do this.
I've talked to both Plugin Companies about this, One thinks this is a Bug Issue on Adobe's end.
The other, is trying to work out something to stop this from happening.
Ok,... So we're ready to move to a InCopy workflow, but now this. I need HELP!
We can't implement InCopy when it destroys our vital information,....
Thanks for any help on this,
Christopher

RED Workflow questions with Mac Pro (including third party plugins)

Hello all,
I’ve been searching many forums for the better part of a day trying to get some workflow questions sorted. I’m experiencing (very) slow export times, and mediocre playback for a machine that should be screaming fast.
Here is what I’m working with:
2014 Mac Pro
-2.7 GHz 12-core intel xeon E5
-64GB Ram
-Dual AMD FirePro D700 6GB
-1TB Flash Storage
Editing all footage off 96TB Raid 6 mini-sas server (getting about 1100mbs read/write rate according to AJA system test) which is faster than any Thunderbolt/TB2 drive array I have.
Media I work with is footage from the RED Epic (normally 5K) as well as DSLR footage from the 5d.
Software:
-PrPro CC 2014 (8.1)
-Magic Bullet Looks 2.5.2
My question(s) pertains to RED post-pro workflow in combination with third party plug-ins and the different approaches to make it more efficient.
Right now, majority of the clients need a 1080p HD master, and they are generally anywhere from 2-8 minutes (usually). So my sequence settings are as follows:
Video:
Editing Mode: RED Cinema
Size: 1920 x 1080
Audio: 48Hz
Video Previews
Preview File Format: I-Frame Only MPEG
Codec: MPEG I-Frame
1920x1080
Maximum Bit Depth unchecked
Maximum Render Quality unchecked
Composite in Linear Color checked
Export Settings
H.264
1920x1080
VBR 1 pass
Target Bitrate 12mbs
Max bitrate 12mbs
Maximum render quality/depth/previews unchecked
Issues I have:
-Playback is fine at 1/2 or even full, but once effects (especially magic bullet looks) start to go on the clips, it’s very choppy and has difficult playback at 1/4
-Export times (especially with magic bullet looks) will take the better part of 1-4 hours for a video that is 3-6 minutes long. This doesn’t seem like it should be the case for a maxed out MacPro
So my questions are:
Do these seem like the right sequence/export settings for mastering at 1080p? If not, what would you suggest?
Would using offline editing help at all?
Do you place your effects on adjustment layers?
Is there anyway to improve export settings when using an array of filters?
Have you stopped using third party plugins for their inefficiency in unreliability and switched to more integrated applications like SpeedGrade?
Is there any other tweaks that you would suggest for RED workflow with PrPro?
Should I consider switching to FCPX or (besides the iMovie-likeness) does it carry problems of its own?

The biggest issue is that most people have is that updating OS X causes certain folders to be set to Read Only. See this blog post: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later).

It's a nice base system. How about an additional speedy disk for media cache files. You also did not mention which version of OS X you are running.

The Red Giant website does not indicate that this software is yet updated to work with Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 (8.1). Proceed with caution here.

I would not use this plug-in until you get the OK from the manufacturer.

Again, I suspect your plug-in.
Keep in mind that exports are largely CPU based but you can make sure that GPU acceleration is enabled for AME at the bottom of the Queue panel.

It's OK.

No need when you should be able to edit natively. Relinking might also be an issue.
thisisironclad wrote:

That's one way you can do it with the benefit of being more organized.
thisisironclad wrote:

I do. Of course, that's a preference.
thisisironclad wrote:

Try the following:
Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
Update any GPU drivers
Trash preferences
Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write(Hopefully you checked this out already)
Delete media cache
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
Repair permissions
Disconnect any third party hardware
If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCLYou have AMD GPUs.
Disable App Nap
Reboot

I really shouldn't answer that question.

Standardise definition & selection method for ALL third party plugin presets!!!

Over at LogicProHelp there is a very useful topic relating to Logic presets - in which many users have spent time saving individual third party plugin settings as LOGIC presets... which is enormously helpful when selecting instruments etc because they can be selected using a keystroke etc and found within the Logic Library browser window - which is of course searchable!
These presets have then been uploaded to the forum for others to download.
http://www.logicprohelp.com/viewtopic.php?p=367267#367267
I posted on the topic recently and thought it worth mentioning over here on the Apple forum.
Here's what I said - does anyone agree/disagree? Is this something that Apple should work on? For me it's a no brainer but I'd like to know what others think....
"MO 3rd party instruments that rely on mouse-clicks or anything more than one button press to change a preset are incredibly badly designed. It's massively frustrating and impedes creative flow to have to use a mouse, or press several keyboard buttons just to move from one sound to another. Native Instruments interfaces are amongst the worst offenders - you even have to MANUALLY specify what presets you want to use with specific MIDI Program Change messages - because the latter are the only way I know of using anything other than the NI interface to change sounds in their plugins.
The Logic Channel Strip settings saved along with 3rd party Plugin settings saved as Logic Presets have proved a recent revelation for me.
Now I can change instrument presets using a keystroke, a midi message, almost anything I want.
And then there's the Logic Library browser - now that so many sounds are saved as Logic Presets, the Logic browser window has become really powerful - being able to search my entire library for "bass" or a particular instrument name - REGARDLESS of which third party plugin is required to play the sound - IT JUST LOADS AND PLAYS!
Maybe I'm in the minority but I think of a sound I want first, NOT which instrument I should load and then browse through - the latter is kind of backwards for me.
I really think that we users should pressure Apple and plugin developers to provide Logic (and indeed other DAWs) presets with ALL of their products because the amount of effort on their part is minimal compared with countless end-users doing this task manually over and over. The current situation is ridiculous.
DAWs are incredibly powerful these days but the lack of a plugin preset/sound library definition standard is quite crippling to work flow.
I mean if there were a STANDARD LIBRARY DEFINITION such as with Native Instrument libraries or Apple loops where sounds are defined universally and supplied as such in a common preset it would revolutionise sound discovery/selection within DAWs.
Kind of like a document management system that applies to ALL plugins, by ALL developers and the installer for a plugin would then add all its presets to the management system/common library"

Sid Merrett wrote:
Can you give me an example of a plugin that doesn't work with the Logic save preset function?
Sure, I could give you lists of plugins for each of those particular scenarios I addressed.
In that specific case, for one example, Spectrasonics instruments for a few years did not support the hosts' save/recall settings function (at least in Logic), and when contacting them and asking why Stylus RMX could not recall settings saved via Logic's preset system I was given the explanation that it wasn't supported for technical reasons.Basically, it only save/recalled a small handful of settings, the rest were lost, meaning it was impossible for quite some time to use the Logic's save/load settings feature to save user presets, you had to use the plugin's own internal save features. (Yes, the instrument's state was saved in the song, but *wasn't* able to be saved via the preset handling, for technical reasons).
A year or so later, and later Logic versions, they finally got round to making it work as the varioous parts of the host and instruments were upgraded to handle larger data requirements. Spectrasonics instruments are examples of instruments with very specific, custom browser features, many of which you lose if you save data using Logic's functionality - not to mention the effort of saving, naming and organising 8000+ patches per instrument. Plus you have many levels of data - you often load a loop into a part, and a part into a group of parts, and they are different types of data. The hosts save/load feature only saves the state of the plugin - it can't be used to load Loop 14 into part 2, for example. It's the whole plugin, or nothing. More workarounds in terms of how you organise your loading/saving of different types of data.
There are other instruments too, and ones I've beta tested where I've got into the technical details and had to have the preset format changed or simplified because hosts had difficulties storing the data correctly. It's quite a complex thing, in the main, and different instruments implentation of preset handling mean that the whole thing is full of workarounds, compromises, or plain failure to use the feature completely.
Other instruments, such as Minimonsta, lose functionality when saving via the host - for example, you only get the meta patches and patch morphing functions when saving via the plugin's own file format, and that stuff doesn't happen when saving via the host.
I could go on and on about this - every develop has different requirements and they mostly all either do it very basically and rely on the host, or bypass the hosts save/load functionality and implement their own which they can be in control of and that will work across hosts and across platforms. For instance, there is little point having a beautifully organised Oddity library if all those sounds are now unavailable to me if I choose to work in Live...
That's why the whole preset thing is a complicated mess and isn't liable to be sorted soon.
There is a developer over on the PC trying to make a system to unify this stuff between plugins - it's PC only right now, and I forget the details this second, but it's acknowledgement that people recognise this whole thing is a mess and looking at ways to improve the situation.
Sid Merrett wrote:
I hadn't spotted that - thanks. You can't use the Logic Library window to search for Plugin Settings, only Channel Strip Settings.
You *can* use it to search for plugin presets, but only within the context of a single plugin. Ie, if I select the ES2, I can see, and search, the ES2 plugin settings. But often I want "a bass sound", I don't necessarily know that I was an "ES2 bass sound", or a "Minimonsta bass sound" or whatever.
The point being, I just want a sound that will work, and I don't know where it will come from. Forcing me to choose and instrument first can be counter productive. How many times have you needed a sound, and you go "Ok, there might be something in pluginX that'll work?" - you load up pluginX, flip through the sounds, don't find anything useful, then go "Ok, let's try pluginY", no... pluginZ etc etc
I miss Soundiver in many ways. *Ideally*, I'd like one central method of storing my presets which will work cross-plugin, cross-host, cross-format and cross-platform that is a standard that all developers and hosts support, and that offers the main core features that developers need, from simple, single patches with names, up to full meta data, cataloging, organising, author and notes tagging and so on. You can still give the users a choice to use the individual plugin and individual plugin's gui for patch selection, but you can get far more standardised if you want, with the advantages that gives - and you don't have to export patches into the system, as it's developer supported, all presets for your instruments would be instantly available in the library, just as they are in the instrument directly.
But it's difficult to get developers to agree on much, these days - the most likely thing to happen is someone somewhere creates a cross-platform standard for this that gains momentum and that developers and hosts want, or *need* to support.

How to reinstall a corrupt, third-party plugin?

This is a multi-level issue.
After purchasing and installing Recosoft PDF2ID (a very useful and clever plugin that allows a user to open PDFs right into InDesign), I noticed that InDesign would hang on Quit. Becasue this hang (and my subsequent force-quite maneuvers) became the norm, I decided to disable PDF2ID, the one third party plugin I had added to ID, using the "Adobe Exchange Manager".
After I did that, "magically", ID resumed it's normal quit process; in other words, no more hanging but just a simple, happy and definitely terminal Quit.
I contacted Recosoft and they replied " We have tens of thousands of PDF2ID installations (amongst various users) and this is a first". So, in other words, I should not have an issue myself because other users do not. That's logical, right?
I then decided to enable PDF2ID once more just so I could obtain some sort of crash log on Quit; something I could send Recosoft for them to examine and possibly find the problem.
When I did enable the plugin again (Exchange screen below, last item enabled), I got a "Startup Alert" -also attached.
Only one time, the plugin loaded and, as expected, ID hang on Quit.
After that I could not get the plugin to load again (but got more "Startup Alerts").
I emailed Recosoft again and send them the Force-Quit log. they told me that they saw no issues and, furthermore, they added "You should contact the Adobe Exchange store to download it and install it again.".
I did.
After spending 2 useless hours with Adobe on the phone, they told me (in an email I asked them to send me) that "The plugin is from Recosoft & not from Adobe, we have helped you [not true at all] with the installation & activation of the plugin but we cannot help you with the usage of the plugin." I never asked them to help me with the usage of the plugin. I asked them to help me reinstall a plugin that I had purchased through Adobe Exchange, a function that apparently Exchange cannot perform.
So, I purchased a plugin using Adobe Exchange. The plugin somehow went bad and impairs the normal functioning (quit, to be precise) of InDesign. Recosoft won't help because I bought their plugin through Adobe Exchange and Adobe won't help either (but is happy to send me an email with a lie embedded in it) because it is not their plugin ... Who should I call now? Apple because I'm using a Mac? The manufacturer of the chair where I sit while I work?
Maybe they are the ones who are supposed to help me get a replacement plugin installed. You tell me.
Thank you.

Thanks for the condescending advice. I did contact the vendor first. That's obvious, a no-brainer. Their (Recosoft's) reply was: "... contact the Adobe Exchange store to download it and install it again." Later they explained that because the plugin was acquired through Adobe Exchange and because they only sell that PDF2ID Lite version through Adobe Exchange, I had to ask you for assistance.
In short, although they indeed build and provide the plugin, it is Adobe Exchange the engine that does the work to download, enable and/or disable a plugin. Exchange does nothing, however, to replace a bad plugin; there is no setting or button or whatever to re-download from source, replace a bad file and reinstall. The only options are enable and disable plugins OR purchase a plugin again. The latter is not a solution, really.
What's interesting to me (other than this thing is still an exercise on pointing fingers) is that when a third party plugin to be used with an Adobe tool is added to your workflow it immediately acquires an Adobe-designed icon, a reflection of Adobe's brand. In general, one does not want to stamp a product with one's own brand unless one is ready to take some sort or responsibility for that product. Adobe appears not follow that logic though. You add one of your branded icons to a product that (it is obvious to me) you take zero responsibility for, one that I can't expect Adobe to support ...

which third party plugins supported in fcp X

Also CGM has FCPX effects and transitions. And CoreMelt have ported their effects to FCPX. And for really amazing effects there are GenArts Sapphire Edge effects. None of these are free, but if you want a great, customizable look that's stunning and unique I don't think you can top GenArts.
Thanks Tom,
I bought CoreMelt for my FCE4 but it sometimes make the FCE4 very slow and lethargic.

16.0.3: custom cursor for third party plugin missing

We are using a third party plugin which has its own cursor (probably 16x16 png), and after upgrade to AI 16.0.3 on Mac OS 10.8, iMac, the custom cursor just gone, currently it ues system cursor (a black arrow).
Any detailed info about this upgrade may cause the problem?

So, here's what happened. In the 16.0.3/16.2 update, Adobe broke sAIUser->SetCursor(). Any plug-in that was using this call to display cursors will no longer be able to change their cursors on Mac. Cursors did not break on Windows. There are two options for developers; either change to platform cursors or wait for Adobe to issue a fix (I do not know, however, if one is planned). Hot Door has already changed to platform cursors and will be issuing an update later this week. There is a discussion on StackOverflow for those interested in the programming solution.

A third party plug-in disappears after a localization patch installation

I have a third party plug-in installed for PhotoShop CS3.
The third party plug-in disappears after installation of a localization
patch. I tried reinstalling the plug-in, but that does not work.
It appears that after the patch is installed, tw10428.dat maps
the English texts on the menu to Korean.
"$$$/Menu/Help/AboutPhotoshop=Photoshop 정보(&A)..."
"$$$/Menu/Help/AboutPlugin=플러그-인 정보(&B)"
"$$$/Menu/Help/Contents=Photoshop 도움말(&H)..."
"$$$/Menu/Help/Home=Photoshop 온라인(&O)..."
And somehow, the third party plug-in disappears because it's not mapped
in the .dat file. I tried manually editing the file and to input
entries for the third party tool and that does not seem to work.
Do you know how I can resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Chris,
How can I install it correctly? It is
The plug-in was working fine before the patch. The patch
is just an executable which I ran after I closed Photoshop.
There wasn't any error message and the instance of Photoshop
works fine when I re-run it other than the fact that the plug-in
is no longer in the menu.

Third Party Plugin - Final Cut Express 4 HD

I'm not able to visualize the plugin in the Effects menu toolbar and I was told that I need to install a FxPlug Support that is provided from Apple for free. Well, two things, I do not know where to find it this FxPlug and why after installing my plugin is not working.
Thank you ion advance for any help or light on this issue.
Best,
jlvsouto

Thanks for your answer!
The software does not give me the option where to install it and I'm kind of lost.
Is the FCE 4 work with third party plugins?! I was told that not! Is it true?!

Easy browsing the third-party plugin presets?

In Logic 7 there's nice instruments and nice presets.
But the best part is that you can use keys for previous/next setting.
Thatway it's easy to find the right sound.
Third-party plugins have different ways to browse the presets.
(every plug is different ****)
But I hate to use the mouse...
So is there a way to browse the presets in the same way for all the plugins??
Thanx (solving this would spare me some years of my life)
POWER MAC G5 2G dual Mac OS X (10.4)

Hello, I'm not a very accomplished JavaScripter, but have found that you can access some InMath at least in CS3. I only needed to be able to refresh the InMath styles from a script.
If you run this script...
app.menuActions.everyItem().name;
it will return the names of all the available menu actions. The list is quite long, but it includes some of the InMath actions. At least the ones you can assign keyboard shortcuts to. In my case, I needed to refresh the InMath styles from a script. So I found the name of the InMath menu action that was returned from the above script (Refresh All InMath Expressions) and was able to make a script that refreshed the styles like this.
app.menuActions.itemByName("Refresh All InMath Expressions").invoke();
However, I'm trying to figure out how to do this in CS2 because my client is still using CS2 and can't find the CS2 version of menuActions.
I think I read your other post about the find/change fillColor bug. I was stuck in the same place and now have it working thanks to the posted help. I was working on a script that would fix fractions based on their colors.
Hope this helps.

DRG-11225: Third-party filter timed out

Hello,
I am facing the following problem when indexing a column:
DRG-11207: user filter command exited with status 2
DRG-11225: Third-party filter timed out.
I am using Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0
I have a column named URL in a table named DOCUMENTO_CONSULTA
This column contains file URLs (2 rows involved in the test)
I am confident that the paths that appear in the two rows of the URL column are correct (because if I change
them to something different another error appear that says, as expected, that files could not be found). I am sure
that access to the files is granted. FILE_ACCESS_ROLE is set to CTXAPP and role is granted to the user. File
and path permission are set to 777.
The two rows contains paths to simple DOC and PDF content, with just one paragraph each.
I am using the following configuration:
ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_doc_cons_datastore', 'URL_DATASTORE');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_doc_cons_datastore', 'urlsize', 1024);
ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_doc_cons_filter', 'AUTO_FILTER');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_doc_cons_filter', 'timeout', 0);
ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'BASIC_LEXER');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'base_letter', 'YES');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'index_themes', 'NO');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'index_stems', 7);
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_lexer', 'index_text', 'YES');
ctx_ddl.create_preference ('ajn_spanish_wordlist', 'BASIC_WORDLIST');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_wordlist', 'stemmer', 'SPANISH');
ctx_ddl.set_attribute ('ajn_spanish_wordlist', 'fuzzy_match', 'SPANISH');
The sentence to create the index is:
create index ajn_doc_cons_idx on documento_consulta(URL)
indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('LEXER ajn_spanish_lexer DATASTORE ajn_doc_cons_datastore FILTER ajn_doc_cons_filter WORDLIST ajn_spanish_wordlist ')
I've tried changing URL_DATASTORE to FILE_DATASTORE (with no attributes) but the result is the same
Here's the configuration I've set in /etv/environment:
PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin:/mnt/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/ctx/bin"

If I try to use ctxhx from the console everything works OK and twoHTML files corresponding to the two rows are generated with no errors at all.
I haven't found any relevant information in forums and docs. I don't have any more ideas, so any answer would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Edited by: 988718 on 18-feb-2013 7:16

Ubuntu is not a supported platform for Oracle, so it's hard to answer this.
However, if you want to try to debug it, replace the "ctxhx" executable with a shell script which dumps its arguments and the current environment to a file.
You can then use that output to create a shell with the same environment, and see if command line ctxhx still works. If not, you'll have to figure out what the differences are between the two environments.

How can I reinstall photoshop cs4 yet not hav to reinstall my third party plugins?

How can I reinstall photo shop cs4 yet not have to reinstall my third party plugins/

Also, why are you reinstalling Photoshop?
If it is because you encounter a strange issue that you did not have before (a tool that misbehaves), most of the times, it does not cure it, as a reinstall does not delete the preference files, and it is those that can become corrupted.
I would reinstall (to cure an issue) only after having reset the offending tool(s), or after having re-created the preference files.

VE Third Party Plugin Maya 2014

Hi,
we have installed the Third Party Plugins for Maya 2014 to use RH File Formats in Maya.
But this plugins seems to have some bugs
Always when you activate the rh_maya2014.mll plugin we get the following messages:
- "New menu sets are available. Your menu set preferences must be updatet to accept them. Custom menu sets will not be affected."
And then comes the mesage:
- " the shelf Polygons has items that cannot be read"
Also there is the message:
"Error in line1: initialize plugin function failes (rh_maya2014).
Result is that many of our old preferences doesn't work anymore.
Can anybody help us. Is there a newer version of the "RH maya 2014 plugin" ?
Thanks!

Hi Tobias,
I have been in touch with Development, it appears that the file QTLibs.dll is not required. Unfortunately it is incorrectly listed in the Installation Script. Thus you can remove it from the folder mentioned above.
I ran some tests. When I turned off the plugin, Maya behaved somewhat unusual when next restarting e.g. I have to choose save or close scene before I got into the application. After this the application ran ok.
I subsequently deleted the Qtlibs.dll from the folder above and the plugin and application ran then without issue. Just one other thing, when I installed the plugin I ran it in Administrator mode. These are the only things that were done. It has also been confirmed to me by a colleage that the plugin is running ok on their system. Is there anything else that you think maybe a factor e.g. multiple releases of applications on same client, third party addons, folders/files being shared among other applications?
Kind regards,
SAP VE Support

Third party plugin for premier pro cs6

How to use third party plugins in PP CC 2014

This is my first venture to use a third party plugin, in this case it's a transition plugin, and I'm trying to get it to work in my newly updated Premiere Pro CC 2014 on my Windows computer. I unzipped the files for the plugin into the Program Files/Adobe/Common/Plug-ins/7.0/MediaCore folder. When I open PP and go to add one of the new transitions, they don't appear in the Video Transitions drop down menu to select and apply them. I did some googling and saw a workaround involving an adjustment layer, but also saw several posts that said the 2014 version enables drag and drop compatibility. Any input greatly appreciated.

It's called the Fancy Particles Transition Pack authored by Stefato which I found on Videohive here: Motion Graphics - Fancy Particle Transitions Pack | VideoHive. There were four versions which came zipped and I unzipped them to the MediaCore folder reference in my original post. When I saw the 7.0 in the path I kinda figured something may have changed on the internals between PP 7 and PP8. Still hoping someone will come through with a solution.
