Time code in sync window

I'm using a new intel-based mac with logic 7.2.3. When I try to enter the SMPTE start-time in the sync window it changes 0:0:0:0 and then sticks there and I can't change it. I use this window all the time when writing picture and it's really frustrating that I can't seem to enter a time code. This function works fine on my PPC based mac - is this an intel bug?

Hi Chrissy,
Yes, this is an Intel bug. Works fine on PPC. It's fixed in Logic 8, though you're bound to come across other issues should you move...

Synchronizing Multi-clip using 2 Sets of Time codes

i have some concert footage I want to edit using Multi clips...
They are all time coded....
We shot close ups in the afternoon of all songs and then the same songs again in the night .
The after-noun songs have one time code and sync great in a multi clip..same as the night ones but have different time codes....
HOW do i get the afternoun and night clips into one Multi clip ,all in sync...????? using time codes?
ROB

Did all camera rolls run throughout the entire song? Or did you have starts and stops at different points of the song.
If you're using 'Inpoints' as your sync reference, all you should have to do is set an inpoint on each camera take. The differing timecodes won't matter, just that your inpoints are all at an initial sync point.

Time code finder to auto sync separate video and audio

Hi All,
Trying to see if FCP has a tool that would allow me to type in the time code from my digital slate to instantly sync separate video & audio. Shot a low budget feature on a RED and digitally recorded audio. We did setup the RED to get reference audio but now I need to sync each scene and take up to the primo audio.
As far as I know, FCP doesn't have any such option but I hope someone proves me wrong.
~reicko

This is kind of off the top of my head, since I usually sync using the "dumb" part of the slate, but here's a workflow I'd try. I'm assuming here that the timecode from your digital slate matches the audio timecode.
1. Select an audio clip in the bin. Choose from the menu Modify/Timecode...
2. Copy the Source TC value into the Aux TC 1 row. You might have to turn on some checkboxes on the left side. Make sure the format and the rate are the same for both.
3. Open the video clip in the viewer and find a frame where you can see the smart slate clearly.
4. Select Modify/Timecode... and enter the timecode value you see in that frame in the Aux TC 1 row. Again, be sure you're using the right format and rate.
5. Select the two audio and video clips that you want to sync. Choose Modify/Merge Clips... and synchronize using Aux Timecode 1.
You should then have a new merged clip with the audio and video in sync. The scratch audio that came with the video file will be there too, so pay attention to your audio patching and be careful about which tracks you actually cut into the timeline.
I can't say for sure if this is faster than just marking inpoints at the clap on each clip. Typing in all that timecode could be hazardous to one's health.

Live Sync / absolute time code

I'm trying to understand (or maybe misunderstand) how this works:
"Absolute Time Code
Ensure that existing time codes persist within media files to allow for richer synchronization between streams, improving interactive experiences (such as switching audio tracks or camera angles) with multibitrate and multistream video and synchronized playback events.
so from this it seems that we can do multi cam live sync
i unedrstand that we =need (via FMLE) to change theconfig file
<streamsynchronization>

<enable>true</enable>
</streamsynchronization>
and to allow< AssumeAbsoluteTime> in the application.xml
... can anyome point me to some documentation on this or have i totally misuandertsood this? Having done the above my streams dont sync?
I am also embedding the timecode via FMLE and triggering onFI
any help gratefull received
thanks
Matt

Thanks for that ...
but how do you account for

"Absolute Time Code
Ensure that existing time codes persist within media files to allow for richer synchronization between streams, improving interactive experiences (such as switching audio tracks or camera angles) with multibitrate and multistream video and synchronized playback events."
beccause surely switching camera angles requires multiple DIFFERENT streams and not multi bit rate or is this just for VOD?

Time Code Sync Problem

I am new to final cut, and have been having a very tough time with a project that I am working on. In short, I am attempting to create a music video, and I began by laying the music tracks down first. As I go to cover the music with video, the video that I lay over the music is about two to three seconds off from the time code in which I set an in point on the source material.
As you can imagine, this is giving me quite a headache as I have to back-time my in point on the source material to accommodate this error. The same glitch is occurring with other projects as well. Although I am new to final cut, I am experienced with other programs, and have never had anything of this nature happen, especially with such a basic project.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yes, thanks for your interest. I began by laying down the audio tracks on channels one and two. When editing video over the tracks, I set an in and out point on the timeline, and drag my video material into the viewer display. I then set an in point on the raw video, and select "overwrite" in the canvas display.
At this point, the clip will drop to the timeline and display a thumbnail corresponding to the clip in which I set an in point. When I render the video, and look at the timeline, the video is two to three seconds ahead of what I had marked as an in point.
I have experimented with this by starting a new project and simply setting an in and out point on the source material and adding it to an empty timeline. As before, the video will be offset by a couple seconds.
Thanks for your feedback!

How do I get time stamped Wav files created in L7 to lock to time code?

Hello everyone,
I did a search about time stamping audio files and was VERY happy to discover the "broadcast wave" format timestamps audio files! So I'm running tests, but cant seem to get logic to actually place the audio file according to the time stamp!
Method: I'm currently scoring a film, and have each cue as separate logic files. To sync Logic's timecode and the TC window burn, I set in the "sync" song settings that bar 1 play at the start of the cue (no offset). For example, If I want to start writing a cue at 1:06:27:05, I just tell logic that bar 1 starts at 1:06:27:05 and start writing. Both logics TC & The window burn TC match perfectly. When I bounce, I choose my bars and bounce as a "wave," which creates a file with time code stamped. I verify this by looking at the file in the audio window, which shows a clock icon, as well as the specific smpte time code if you select the file before importing into the audio bin.
From here, how do I get logic to automatically place the audio files according to their time code? I've tried "import audio" directly into the arrange page as well as dragging the file over from the audio bin and neither work. I've also tried then "cutting" these and "paste at original position" hoping it would read the time code, but instead just pastes it where it was originally imported, not according to the time code.
So I'm stumped! What am I doing wrong?
thanks in advance for your help!

Highlight the regions and then from the audio menu select "move regions to original record positions"

WAITING FOR TIME CODE....again

Hi, when I try to capture from DV device, the capture window appears "PREVIEW DISABLED" I can remote the dv device, mark time code in or out, play tape, pause tape, the time code in the capture window run and is the same taht the tape, but when I do batch capture, cpture clip or capture now, the preview window of catpure says : "WAITING FOR TIME CODE" "DEVICE MUST IN VTR MODE WHEN DEVICE CONTROL IS ENABLED" and when I abort the capture this message apperas: "THIS OPERATION COULD NOT BE COMPLETED AS THERE IS NO VIDEO", Quicktime pro is unabled to capture too, but IMOVIE capture without this problem. I download the firewire sdk from developer connection of apple and use AVCVideo Cap, and no problem for cature, so , my Firewire or dv devices are ok, with DVHSCap I capture PRO HD JVC very well.
Resume , I think there is a problem with quicktime and DV format, My Ibook G4 with FCP 5.0.1 capture from DV devices OK, without problem. If anybody resolved this please comment with us. I work to day with FCP 6.0.4 and quicktime 7.5 and Mac os 10.4.11 and 10.5.4 the problem is afected my PowerPC G5 and my powerbook intel. Another point of interest is that this problem is RANDOM, some times I can capture from DV devices in the first time, some times I can't capture.

Hey AL
How ya doin buddy?
"Either way, try an Easy Setup>DV Converter, to match your video standard (Pal or NTSC)."
Yep - did that
Yes actually my older Sony TVR-310 camcorder IS a digital unit which can also play back analog tapes.
As I'm getting my way around now in FCE, I'm coming to some conclusions in regard to FCE's capture capability.
First let me say that I've also tried capturing some footage in FCE with my other Sony TVR-950, and have had dropped frames, and also breaks in time code.
I thought dropped frames were strictly a PC issue?
Anyway, it appears to me that FCE is VERY sensitive to time code issues NO matter which camera is in the chain.
In fact, I've also read here where folks have a lot of trouble with their Canon GL2's as well. Some of you have even suggested to do your captures in a cheaper Mini DV, or a clam-shell playback machine. This conserves the heads on your GL2 as well.
But why would FCE do better in regard to capturing and time code, with a cheaper Mini DV Camcorder? Perhaps I'm missing something here?
Perhaps iMovie doesn't care about the same issue?
Now my main question is:
Ok I'll use iMovie6 HD (tried and true), to capture ALL my footage and just save the DV files to be edited later (imported) into FCE.
Does this sound like a viable solution to FCE's time code issues?
Will my iMovie captures be JUST AS GOOD as if they were done in FCE?
Thanx so much guys!

Blackberry desktop manager 5.0 won't sync windows address book/mail

Hi,
before I upgrade my laptop to win7 64 bit with DM 5.0, I had Vista 64 bit with DM 5.0 and I was able to sync windows address book.
Now on my win7, I can't select it anymore. I install the same software what I use on vista to win7. I use a blackberry tour, OS 4.7.
Like the picture see here : http://images.crackberry.com/files/u7860/Outlook_Sync_Selection.jpg
you can see that you can select windows address book/mail.
I try on win7, to install the latest DM, but still can't check windows address book/mail. I uninstall it, reinstall DM 5.0, also no luck. I remove intelisync, try again, still no luck.
Any idea how to get the it to sync with windows address book/mail ?
Thanks

On my G5 mac at work, I am getting - don't know what to call it - looks like extraneous matrix type code around prompt windows and in applications. Sometimes I will get large shapes of colors, yellows, magentas, cyans. Anyone else experience this?

On my G5 mac at work, I am getting - don't know what to call it - looks like extraneous matrix type code around prompt windows and in applications. Sometimes I will get large shapes of colors, yellows, magentas, cyans. Anyone else experience this?
I will attach a recent screen shot of a print window I opened and the extra code is above and below the window. There are matrix type blocks of code and then lines under the window. I get this all the time and it is getting worse.
Any help to get rid of it would be appreciated.
Thanks

Error code: 0xc0000001 file: \windows\system32\winload.efi missing or contains errors

I have a new 2 month old(Aug 2014) hp eliteone 800 all in one computer running win 8.1 64bit. i have two 1 tb hard drives raid configuration. left computer on for an afternoon and when I came back it was off mysteriously. tried to turn on and it
attempted to repair and was never able to repair. hp sent a new windows 8 software to install, they said os was corrupt. installed three times now i get error code: 0xc0000001 file: \windows\system32\winload.efi missing or contains errors. hp said installation
disc probably corrupt and sent me another. installed twice with same result, error code: 0xc0000001 file: \windows\system32\winload.efi missing or contains errors. This began after the computer was just one month old and after i had placed 300-400
gb of my personal data from other computers on it. I need all of these files so can't just recover/delete all of the files on the computer, although i have read that that may be my only solution? If i do recover will the files still be on the second hard drive??
can you help with this problem?? thanks.

Hi Richard,
Did you try to repair or reinstall the system when you insert the new media?
Have you tried to carry out a system recovery, which will restore your system back to factory defaults and how was the result?
In addition, I suggest you use the new installation media to do a clean install(full format the old system).

Why does timer code (by dbasnett) no longer work splendidly?

Using timer code supplied by dbasnett back in May2014, I was able to see FPS of near 500 for a simple animation. Now, with a more recent 64bit laptop Win 8.1 - - I run the same code - - - and see poor results similar to standard timers - - where the
results are "stepped" - - -like either 16FPS or 32FPS or the max I can get is 64FPS.
This thread back in May2014 - -https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/9ddb2f16-796a-483a-aa3f-0f9b959e0eea/the-use-of-systemwindowsformstimer-for-time?forum=vbgeneral
And here is the code that dbasnett supplied - -
Public Class Form1

End If
End Sub)

Me.Close()
End Sub)
End Sub
End Class
With timer interval set to 20 - - - - it used to give about 50FPS (which is should), but it doesnt anymore - - - it gives 32FPS.
Can anybody shed some light on what has gone wrong? My present laptop also a I7 is 4 years younger than my old laptop and has far betters specs. Why is it slower? or why is this timer code no longer acting the same?
Thanks

@ Reed Kimble. Thanks for your point about not being OS related. That make sense anyway.
@ Mr.Monkeyboy. Thanks for your links and points. I had a bit of a read. Mostly over my head. To me it should'nt be a thread priority question because the program is so simple - there is only one thread anyway.
And I don't think it is a graphics issue, because I altered the program to only manipulate a bitmap - not activate a paint event - - - but it still performs poorly. I only get 32 Cycles Per Second instead of 50 CPS. See - this is how I altered the
code - but no change in performance:-
Public Class Form4
Dim bmp As Bitmap
Dim gfx As Graphics
Dim R As Integer
Dim D, T As Double
Private Sub Form4_Load(sender As Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
bmp = New Bitmap(500, 500)
gfx = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)

End If

Dim rct As Rectangle = New Rectangle(250 - R, 250 - R, 2 * R, 2 * R)
Using spen As New Pen(Color.FromArgb(83, 32, 69))

End If
End Sub)
A = -1
Loop While Not slp.WaitOne(20) '<<<<<<< the timer interval
Me.Invoke(Sub()

PS - I changed the code so that it does not deal with bitmaps or graphics at all - - - but still no improvement.
Maybe it is Framework Version issue ??

Recording an external SMPTE Time code during capture

I have several diffrent devices that I am trying to Sync using a common Smpte Code Generator. How do I record that external SMPTE Source while capturing in Final Cut Pro HD? I am currenly using a AJA Konal LS card for my capture device?

You can't with Final Cut Pro unless you capture with a tape machine as has already been stated.
If you have no tape machine you need a provision to insert the timecode into the rs422 datastream, like the [Horita TCI-50|http://www.horita.com/smpteltc.htm#RLT-50] or an [Adrienne|http://www.adrielec.com/box20lit.htm] interface. You may also want to investigate RP-188 timecode which SMPTE says "Transmission of Time Code and Control Code in the Ancillary Data Space of a Digital Television Data Stream." You probably can use [Aja's VTR Exchange|http://www.aja.com/support/kona/kona-lse-ls.php] software which will capture embedded RP-188 timecode if the video you are using does contain RP-188.

Is it possible to clear the entire Bookmarks list at one time in Safari for Windows?

Hello. Is it possible to clear the entire Bookmarks list at one time in Safari for Windows? I would like to continue to use the Safari browser even though I have Windows 7 as the operating system on my notebook.

Please help a humbled Safari user.

Are you sure that you can change the permissions of symlinks themselves? I think I've tried to make files read-only via symlinks on a local server but ended up using bindfs because it wasn't possible. Even if you can, symlinking everything that might be necessary for a given environment would not be ideal, plus I don't think symlinks can be used across different filesystems.
If a real-life human can figure out if it's he/she is in a chroot and break out of it, then he/she can write a script to do the same. I want a sandbox that could run malicious code with no effect on the system (if that's possible). Also, I think if the chroot idea were truly feasible, makepkg would have been using it for years already to simply install packages in the chroot as you normally would and then package them. There would also be several sandbox applications that could run applications safely. So far I have yet to find any.
I admit that I haven't looked into using a chroot in detail though and of course I may have missed some application which creates such a setup. Right now I think using per-application namespaces with fuse seems the most promising but I won't know until I've finished implementing a test application. If it turns out that it's a dead end I'll take harder look at chroot but it really doesn't seem to be able to do what I want.
