Trying to create "screencast", and am totally confused...

Hi.
So, I used snapZpro and captured a section of my screen, and saved it out as a quicktime with animation codec, 10 frames per second.....
I then created a project in FCP, and brought in my files... Created a sequence, and put my mov in there.. It immediately set the sequence to DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, the canvas window shows my footage but it looks wrong-- like the fonts are unreadable, blurry, etc.
So, I went into sequence settings and set it to Animation, and then I have a RED timeline showing that I need to render everything.. and I am totally confused as to why since the footage is the animation codec... The frame rate in the sequence is 29.97, I thought that was perhaps why it's red, but there is no option in the "edit timebase" for 10fps.. Its only options between 23 and 60...
My goal is to make some basic edits, and then output again with the animation codec.
Can anyone please let me know how I should proceed? Rendering my footage seems like the wrong thing to do-- especially since it says it will take 2 hours to do it!!!
Thanks.

Final Cut Pro works with industry standard codecs, pixel dimensions and frame rates. As soon as you try making custom settings, it's no longer standard and you have to render. Snapz Pro was never designed to work in conjunction with a professional video editing system. You should try [iShowU|http://www.shinywhitebox.com/ishowuhd/main.html] instead, which will let you export to any codec on your computer.

    Are you behind a firewall or double NAT??
    What is the device that is immediately plugged into the main modem or router? Has that one been able to update?
    It is plugged in of course isn't it.. no nasty join wireless anywhere??
    The best way to work around these sort of problems is to simplify the network.. Plug each device directly into the main router.. by ethernet. You can trigger the firmware upgrade by wireless but use ipad or iphone version of airport utility and see what happens.

  • Help !! ios 6,iphone,Two ipods & and ipad totally confused !!

    Please can someone help?
    I have an iphone 4 and an ipad, both my boys have an ipod and everything runs under my apple account.
    My first problem is that neither of the children can face time or message. Have set them both up with gmail accounts but neither ipod will accept the associated passwords despite being re set to ensure they are correct.
    They cant receive messages from me, which is what i wanted for them, do i need to give them each an apple id? and if so how do i regulate their app store purchases?
    and when they are given an app store voucher, whos id does it go on?
    My second problem is that since upgrading to ios6 one of the boys is getting all my text messages showing up on his ipod and the other still cant open his messages.
    I have messed around with the settings on both ipods but to no avial and I am now totally confused.
    All I want is for someone to explain how the boys can face time/message, how my messages stop from appearing on their ipods and as for my ipad well i give up!!
    please surely it cant be this difficult?

    You have to set them each up with their own Apple ID, then log out from your Apple ID on their devices and log in with theirs. Make sure that Facetime and Messages are set to receive calls/messages on their Apple IDs, not yours.

  • Iphoto freezes when trying to create cards and books

    the iphoto app freezes every time i try to create a photo book. I am not sure what to do.

    It doesn't sound like you are actually in iPhoto. The way you can tell is, when you are doing whatever it is you do and the computer "freezes", look in the upper left corner right next to the Apple. What does it say?
    It sounds like Safari is the program having issues.
    Try going to the Safari Menu > Reset Safari. Uncheck the options for Remove other auto... and Remove Saved Names...
    See if that helps.

    evidently the problem is a lack of public execute on DBMS_LOB, which is used in the generated IR source.
    while waiting for the DBA to grant privs on DBMS_LOB, changing the dbms_lob.getlength call to length() fixes the IR.
    however, i am not getting the download link on the associated form page... changed templates, that's not the issue -- we'll see if that's a dbms_lob issue as well

  • How to create parameter and control file like filename + date

    Hello there

    how can I put date at the end of filename like
    initWEBDB8jan06.ora and cf_longterm8jan06.cpy
    Thanks in advance
    Lionel

    ASM is reliable but a smart DBA is very careful. If ASM is doing mirroring this is like RAID doing mirroring. What happens if you accidentally delete one copy ... the other one disappears instantly. Not a good idea.
    With respect to redo logs you need a minimum of three groups, two members, and one thread per instance. So a 2 node cluster should, at a minimum have 12 physical files.
    Not mirroring the redo logs, assuming multiple members, is not as critical.

  • Creating dll and calling it in labview crashing the program

    Hi All,
    I am using labview from quite a long time.But this time i am stuck with dll.Not able to solve this issue.
    I have to communicate with FTDI chip.
    I have a VC++ Project to communicate with SPI of FTDI.That Code is working perfectly fine.
    Now I Have to automate that through LabVIEW. VISA Drivers i cant use in this. So Last option left is either to create dll or to make EXE out of it.
    I have tried by creating DLL and then calling it in LabVIEW by using Call Library Function Node.But its not helping me out every time LabVIEW is getting Crashed.
    Is there error in creation of dll or something i am not doing properly while calling?
    Thanks In Advance

    Which function call crashes LabVIEW?
    Have you tried switching the calling convention from stdcall to C for all of the DLL calls?
    Why are you converting a string to a number, instead of using a numeric constant directly? If you want a number in hex, you can right-click a numeric constant, make the radix visible, and switch it to hex display.

  • Creating Directories and Files

    I am trying to create directories and sub-directories in a portlet. The user names the File and directories and sub-directories with specific files in each are generated. I can see that it is getting the correct paths for the directories and sub but it will not create the actual directories or files when I do fileName.createNewFile() or fileName.mkdir() as appropriate. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

    So do you "greatly appreciate" my potentially helpful response yet? Did you get run over by a bus?
    Oh, I understand now. To you, "to greatly appreciate" means "to ignore".

  • Performance of BAPI's to create Leads and Activities

    Hi,
    I'm using the BAPI's BAPI_LEAD_CREATEMULTI and BAPI_ACTIVITYCRM_CREATEMULTI to create Leads and Activities.
    The scenario is:
    1) The input file has 3 types of records coming in
       (a) Leads only
       (b) Activities only (Prospect Lead activities)
       (c) LEad + Activity (rescheduled activities)
    2) Depending on the type of record, I'm required to create the relevant order and if required link the lead and activity (scenario - C)(using the FM CRM_DOC_FLOW_MAINTAIN_OW).
    3) In addition to this, I'm also required to link campaign elements to both Leads and Activities (done within the BAPI's BAPI_LEAD_CREATEMULTI and BAPI_ACTIVITYCRM_CREATEMULTI in the doc_flow structure).
    ISSUE:
    The issue that I am facing is that it is taking a lot of time to create these. I'm basically running a custom conversion program for LEads and Activities. The rate is almost 6-8 secs for each record, and we have about 500,000 records to be converted.
    Also, I'm having to use the following function modules after the creation of Leads and Activities:
    1) CRM_MA_ACT_SAVE - to set the status of the activity to OPEN or IN PROGRESS. This is being done after the creation of an activity because the BAPI BAPI_ACTIVITYCRM_CREATEMULTI seems to always default the status to OPEN.
    2) CRM_ORDER_CHANGE_STATUS - to set the status of the LEad to OPEN or IN PROGRESS. This is being done after the creation of an activity because the BAPI BAPI_LEAD_CREATEMULTI seems to always default the status to OPEN.
    3) BAPI_LEAD_ATT_CHANGE - to set the STATUS SINCE field for a Lead. This is being done because I'm unable to set the STATUS_SINCE field using the BAPI BAPI_LEAD_CREATEMULTI.
    The logic being used within the code is to process a batch of records (500/1000 records - value is an input selection parameter) from the input file in one go, and then commit all of them after their creation. After this, the next batch of records is again processed and committed.
    We've also tried to create LEads and Activities record by record and not in batches... but the performance still remains the same.
    I'm not sure what is slowing down the process. If whether it is all the commits, or if it is the additional use of the FM's to change the 'status' and 'Stauts-since' values after having committed the leads and activities.
    When we look at the LEads and Activities that are created, everything looks fine. It is only that the performance is really slow.
    Thanks for all your patience and suggestions,
    - Akarsh

    In order to improve the performance you could use several processes. Just start you conversion-program with several variants at the same time.
    Last time I converted 80.000 contracts it took me 6 hours with 5 processes.
    Hopes this helps.

  • Please help on create files and directories in Session Bean

    Hi,
    I am trying to create files and directories at run time from a session bean. Since EJB 2.0 prohibit the use of the java.io.* package. The only thing that I know how is to use the URLConnection. After getting a connection through URL. I may use the getOutputStream() to get a output stream to write to the HTTP server. But the getOutputStream() returns an OutputStream object which is one of the package in the java.io package. Since I need to create file and directory, I need to use the FileOutputStream that is also under the java.io package.
    Can someone give me a hint what should I do. Here is a directory and the file that I may need to create;
    Directory1/Drictory2/myFiles.au
    Thank you in advance, your help is greatly appreciated.

    From 24.1.2 (Programming Restrictions) of the EJB 2.0 spec:
    � An enterprise bean must not use the java.io package to attempt to access files and directories in the file system.
    The file system APIs are not well-suited for business components to access data. Business components should use a resource manager API, such as JDBC, to store data.
    You might want to look at the File System Service Provider in JNDI for an alternative approach. I have never used an FSSP though.

  • Create Cubes and Dimension Help

    Hi Experts,
    I am using +11.1.0.7.0 version of Oracle Databse and OWB Client+. I am trying to create Dimensions and Cubes using the OWB tool but everytime unsuccessfull.
    1. I tried using the exisiting Dimesnions and Cubes in the SH Schema as a base. However when i deployed it gave me the error.
    2. I tried to use the examples from the Oracle Library website
    http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/11g/r1/owb/owb11g_update_extend_knowledge/less5_modeling_target/less5_modeling_target.htm
    But trying that too produce me some errors.
    So the other way round i have now installed AWM (Analytic Workspace Manager) which is easily makes Cubes and Dimensions and also exports to the OBIEE Repository. But for some reasons i have to again switch back to OWB. Is there more documents which describes each and every step while preparing the Dimensions.
    Regards,+

    There are OBEs which include dimensional object creation (the 10gR2 one is applicable to 11gR1);
