Trouble exporting feature film as Multitrack

Hello!
Currently, we have a feature film being mixed in Adobe Audition CC. The film was cut in Final Cut Pro 7 and was exported from FCP7 as an OMF file into Adobe Audtion. During the mix we did your typical editing, we added sound effects, music, foley, ADR etc.Each different is being sent to a bus.
We are trying to export the final mix into the 4 different buses (Dialog, Foley, Sound Effects, Music). However, during this export, it appears Audition is taking 63 hours to fully export this project. After 4 hours, its only at 3 percent.
I'm hoping someone can clear this up for us and help us figure out why this export is taking so long. Does anyone have any ideas or troubleshooting thoughts?
Thanks again for your support!

A few responses, hopefully they are illuminating and possibly also helpful
"Best Quality" has a subjective aspect to it. If you mean, "as close to my original footage as possible", then export to QuickTime Movie, not QuickTime Conversion. And if you are sending the video to iDVD, export to QuickTime Movie only.
If you are using Final Cut Express, your HDV material has already been transcoded to QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec. That's how FCE works with HDV video. If you simply export your sequence to QuickTime Movie, you will get a file that is QuickTime/Apple Intermediate Codec.
You cannot export from FCE to ProRes. FCE does not support ProRes.
If your video is HDV it should already be 16:9; there is nothing further you need to do to ensure it is 16:9.
The lines on your TV screen could happen from many causes. It's not necessarily your video, although if the lines are fairly consistent throughout the entire video, it could be from the interlaced nature of the video, a bad export or a bad encode & burn. Try the following as a test:
In FCE, do Sequence > Render All > Both, followed by Sequence > Render Only > Mixdown.
Then save your project.
Then export to QuickTime Movie (self-contained or not, it doesn't matter for this test).
Then import the video into iDVD.
In iDVD make sure your Encoding preference is set to Professional Quality.
Then complete & burn your DVD. See if that makes a difference.

I'm having trouble with export my film in FCPX

When I export a film to youtube of Quicktime the audio remains but the video is gone expect for text. In most instances it's replaced by nothing. However, I have gotten the camera disconnected symbol as well. Any help would be terrific.

Youtube or Quicktime, My mistake

STP very, VERY unstable for projects 45min DO NOT use for feature films

My mac has crashed nearly 50 times while using STP editing audio for a feature film. It simply isn't ready for primetime and its really bad. I've done all the troubleshooting tips (deleting preference files, cache files, etc.)
I would wholeheartedly suggest anyone look elsewhere if you have a large project. Digital Performer, etc. just anything other than STP

I've been using STP for almost five years for my podcast. Early on I discovered that, depending upon settings, I couldn't record more than a certain length without major issues. Essentially, the recording would get lost in a kind of crazy quilt of short patches. Cutting the file in two and then splicing together after editing usually fixed the issue.
These days, for example, recording at 96/24, I can get close to an hour and a half without any trouble. Usually I record less than an hour and a quarter, so I'm fine.
Otherwise, my sense is that STP has gotten more stable over time, though it's still plenty buggy.

Color grading workflow for full featured film ...

dear friends ...
i'm about to edit a full feature film on premiere CS5 ... will color grade with colorista 2 and other tools (maybe AE) ... and the final movie will go to lab to print the film on 35mm film stock ... when i talked with the lab they told me to take care of the LUT ... i do not know how work with the same LUT in premiere CS5 and i do not know how i can be sure that the film will look the same from premiere CS5 to the film stock ... any ideas how i can achieve this?
The main problem with this and every other electronic color corrector is that while making a nice image on the electronic screen it is not what you will see on the film screen. The problem is there is no consideration for the density v. exposure, nonlinear response of the display device, and most important no simulation of the undesired dye cross coupling in the positive print film.
thanks for co-operation.

Well something I would advise is tests...lots of tests.
I would suggest that you will want to export from AEFX for the files going to the LAB.
Have the lab advised you of the file specs and type they require. eg seq tiif / tga....
I dont have an answer for you about managing the LUT but....
I did tests and used the "eyeometer" method. eg. I projected the tests up at the lab. The projector and screen were calibrated to a Kodak cinema spec
Actually I found color was not the issue of any significance.
I did find the gammas were a slight issue (easily dealt with)
Shadow detail requires concentrating on ( otherwise noise)
Highlights needed to be controlled to avoid blowing them out and away.

Best file format for archiving high def feature film clips?

Hey, all. This is a second question.
I got a part time job at a university assembling a database of feature film clips that have to do with wearable technology in popular culture. Basically my job is to go through feature film clips and assemble a database of clips like Iron Man testing his gear, Batman using his sonar in the Dark Knight, that sort of thing.
I'm not sure what the best file format to export my clips would be. They should be downloadable (and not huge) but still high definition. I tried making a clip where Iron Man tries flying for the first time, but the entire movie I downloaded was around 700 megs, and my two minute extracted clip was 150 megs, so I'm not doing something right.
Can anyone suggest a file format? It needs to be lossless (I think I'm using that term correctly) so that if students want to reference the clip they can pull high definition screenshots and whatnot from it.
Cheers,
DT

You might want to export twice, or maybe even three times for each clip. Once for the HD clip that is as high quality and visually perfect as possible, another for the compressed and relatively easily downloadable clip, and a third for the live thumbnail.
One example of how this is done can be found at one of my favorite sites, http://www.videoblocks.com - no advertising intended. I am sure almost everyone here gets plenty of ads for the site already. I just happened to suscribe when it was cheap.
In any case, you hover your mouse over a clip and it plays back in a small version. Then you have a choice of downloading the MP4 version designed to watch, or the MOV designed forediting.
That solves the problem for the students if the University has the storage space for multiple copies.
If you haven't seen VideoBlocks yet, sign up for the free 7 day trial and download so music, or AE templates, or something else you can use like transitions or lower thirds, or whatever. Then you can see how it works and why I think it might solve your particular problem. If you have a problem with signing up, let me know and I will record a screen capture for you.

How does Adobe ExportPDF differ from the export feature in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0?

How does Adobe ExportPDF differ from the export feature in Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.0?

ExportPDF is based on a newer conversion engine than the one found in Acrobat 9.0. They're similar in some respects, but ExportPDF is more advanced.

Trouble Exporting to PDF

I am having trouble exporting one file to PDF. I try other indd files and they export prefectly fine. Just this one file. When I export it has the message "background task: Failed to export a PDF"
I try couple solution online that I find
1. Disable preflight and restart InDesign
2. Add the document to a new book and export from the book panel
The only think that I couldn't try is Disable background exporting.
I am having a little trouble there....I did create an empty ext file and save it as "DisableAsynExport.txt"
but I seem to have trouble going to the folder. It said that you need to go...
Mac: /Applications/Adobe InDesign CS5.5/Adobe InDesign CS5.5.app/Contents/MacOS/
When I got to Adobe InDesign CS5.5.app it opens the app instead of opening another folder... not sure if there is another way to open it.
So when I go to Mac: /Applications/Adobe InDesign CS5.5/
It has Adobe Indesign CS5.5.app, Configuration folder, Documentation folder, Fonts folder, Legal folder, Plug-Ins folder, Presets folder, Scripts folder and Uninstall Adobe InDesign CS5.5
So I have not clue where the Contents/MacOS is??
Would be best is someone can help me....
Thank you so much!!!

If it failed from a book, it won't matter if you disable background export becasue books don't use it.

Why does my php export feature work in IE and not firefox?

Why does my php export feature work in IE and not Firefox? I've written a web application which contains a SigmaGrid. The grid controls reload, add update delete, print and export to csv all work in IE8. The export feature does not work in Firefox.

I'm not sure what's going on for you. I've had 4 other developers - two on Comcast and two on Fios review my work and they get the control and export action in the IE8 version but not the FF10 version.
Thanks for looking into this for me, though. I appreciate the effort. '' The operation was a success doctor, but the patient died.''

Trouble exporting interactive pdf´s

Hi!
I having som trouble exporting pdf from indesign cs6 using the interactive export option. In short my goal is to export a magazie file, about 80 pages to a pdf using srgb color space and medium res images to use on a website. I have previously used the interactive option in the export dialog box, since this option converts the file to a web freindly file. Now this crashes indesign. On page 64 everthing stops and I have to force quit ID. This have worked before, but now I have experienced the same problem on two different files. Does anyone have any clue to why this happens or any suggestions to a work around?
Thanks, Rune

This usually indicates theres a problem with something on a page. You can often isolate it using a divide and conquer strategy. Try exporting the front half of the file and the back half as separate PDFs. If either half fails, divide that in half and repeat until you are down to one page. Do the same with the objects onthe page (though it usually turns out to be an image).
If both halves export OK initially, then it's a problem of machine resources. Combine the two halves using Acrobat Pro.

Trouble with a film download

Hello everybody,
I have trouble downloading an film in itunes.
The film is downloaded very very slowly and after a while I get an error message that the film can't be downloaded. If I want to re-download it after closing itunes downs the problem resists... There is no possibility to delete the download and to download it again.
I already contacted the itunes service and the propositions made by them could not help me out.
I would really really appreciate it if you could help me out with this issue!!

Exporting the film in best quality for further editing

I am about to finish a 52-minute long documentary in Final Cu Express. I've been editing in HD, using Apple Intermediate Codec1080i50.
Part of the project files and render files are in an external G-Raid and other part are on my Macbook pro hard drive, Since I will be traveling, I would like to be careful and minimize the risk of something happening either to the G-Raid or to my Mac, therefore, I want to export the film as it is, although in the future I still might need to work on it - do some more final editing and definitely do the subtitles in DVD Pro (currently I don't have the DVD Pro). My question is whether I should be using export - quick time movie or quick time conversion - and what the settings would be for the best quality product that could be used in documentary film screenings and possibly shown on TV? Or how should I go about saving the project? Right now the project file only has references to the files, right, not the files themselves and if something happens I might lose it all...
Thanks for the help!

QuickTime Movie. Forget the render filed, they seldom reconnect properly; it's usually better just to re-render. Keep your G-RAID and make sure it is backed up together with your project.

Command line equivalent of Work Group Manager's export feature

Hello everyone,
I am have a hard time upgrading from Lion Server to Mountain Lion Server, especially with Open Directory. What I wish to do, is to import the existing users and groups of an existing server running Lion Server into a new (fresh) Open Directory master created on another server that is running Mountain Lion Server.
I have tried several options. Those that did *not* work for me include:
Trying to make create a replica of the Lion Open Directory on the Mountain Lion Server
Trying to backup the OD of the Lion Server using slapconfig
What seems to work (for the moment), is to use the export feature of Work Group manager on Lion and to import the users/groups using the import feature of Mountain Lion Server app.
My question is: is there a command line way to do the export ? Since Work Group manager seems to be kind of deprecated in ML, I assume there must be some other way (i.e., from the command line) to do the user/group import and export.
Thanks for your help !

Notice that the old Archive and Restore options are gone. To run a backup, run the slapconfig command along with the -backupdb option followed by a path to a folder to back the data up to:
sudo slapconfig -backupdb /odbackups
To restore a database (such as from a previous version of the operating system where such an important option was actually present) use the following command (which just swaps backupdb with -restoredb)
sudo slapconfig -restoredb /odbackups
/usr/sbin/ServerBackup -cmd backup -source /

What happened to the Export feature in Preview?

In Panther, I used to be able to export from .pdf files to .jpg easily. Now, not so much. You have to grab the section you want to export as jpeg and save it and go through a lot of garbage. What gives, and is this fixed in 10.5?

Nope, still does not allow saving.
I just want to save each page as a JPG and then save to my website. This way users can simply view the page without having to open another app like preview or acrobat viewer to see the page.
Point is, in the previous version of Preview in Panther, exporting each page to whatever format was a simple thing. File, Export, select format and directory, Save, done! It gave a warning that only single page exports were supported, but that's what I wanted anyway.
Luckily, I copied my entire boot drive onto a secondary drive before upgrading to 10.4, so I have Preview 2.1 still, and it works.
Still, any clues as to why they changed/removed this Export feature to a clunky and PITA, many step, not as good, way of doing a thing?
