Unable to apply reverse effect

For some reason, I am unable to apply the reverse effect to a clip. It will preview, but the apply button will not engage. Any advice?

I completed steps 1-3 above and still the apply button will not engage. I can still preview (and it looks good), but it won't apply. Any other suggestions?
is your project located on some external harddrive?
=> needs to be formatted correctly
is your project 'DV' or 'mpeg4/iSight'?
=> some effects don't apply to non-DV projects ..

  • Unable to apply reverse engineering to dbf file

    Hello everyone,
    We are new to ODI and struggling to understand whether we are making an error or we are actually facing an issue with a .dbf file.
    Some details for everyone:
    - ODI version: 10.1.3.4.0
    - Platform: Win Server 2003 sp2
    - File we wish to load: xyz.dbf, where xyz.dbf is one of the 3 output files (xyz.shp, xyz.shx, xyz.dbf) of an ESRI geographic information systems software
    - We are not interested in the other .shp and .shx files but just in the .dbf one: hence we are treating this one as a stand-alone .dbf file.
    Given the above elements, we have executed the following:
    a. Created an ODBC entry using the "Microsoft dbase Driver for dbf files" vs. the relevant directory storing the .dbf file (as well as the .shp, .shx);
    b. Used Topology Manager --> "Dbase" technology to build the relevant Data Server, Physical Schema and Logical Schema.
    --- Up to this point when we test the connectivity to the .dbf file we have absolutely NO problems. ---
    We have then proceeded in Designer:
    c. Creating an appropriate Model vs. the Logical Schema introduced at point b.
    d. Attempting the reverse-engineering process.
    At this point however the "reverse engineering" has not performed what expected, as
    1. it has correctly introduced in Designer a datastore corresponding to the desired .dbf file, but
    2. it has not created any columns at all for the datastore, without producing any error message.
    Additionally, clicking on the datastore just created and selecting from it the "reverse" option in the "columns" tab, an error window is retrieved: "java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC dBase Driver]Invalid string or buffer length".
    At this point we are struggling to understand how to proceed further: shall we use a different ODBC driver/is this an error un-related to the ODBC driver we used/shall we use a different technology in consideration of the fact this .dbf file is not a stand-alone one but comes with .shp and .shx as well/anything else?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi CTS,
    First, thanks for your help - much appreciated.
    However, we just tried to reverse the .dbf as you suggested using the custom reverse engineering via RKM SQL (Jython) module.
    First two steps (1 - Reset Metadata, 2 - Create Jython Classes) worked OK, but third failed with the same error mentioned in the first thread:
    Operator log details:

  • I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?

    I am unable to apply my downloaded update. When I try to apply it and restart firefox, it still says 'apply downloaded update now...'. Why can't I apply this update and what do I do about it?

    Checked out that link and everything seems to be in order on this machine at this time.
    I only have CC installed on this one machine, not even my secondary machine like is permitted. it seems odd that I'm asked to re-accept the Licence Agreement as often as I am. If I had to guess, it's almost every week, if not multiple times some weeks, that all the software will decide I should have to view the licence agreement.
    Edit: I've never had any noticeable "errors" activating or anything like that. I just get asked to do it quite frequently.
    This activation screen isn't too annoying (it involves clicking one single button), but like I stated earlier, if I'm trying to launch the software by double-clicking on a PSD, AI, PPROJ, AEP, etc... that file will fail to open.
    I feel like that's probably not really a bug, but it is frustrating, since I did launch the application with the intent to edit that specific file I tried to open.
    Again, something that you guys may consider working on.
    Another annoyance is that: agreeing to the licence agreement is a per-application task, so if I see that Licence Agreement dialogue window by opening Photoshop (for example), I know that every other piece of software I have in the suite (Illustrator, Premiere, After Effects, Audition) will be showing me that screen on it's next launch. Probably deliberate for legal purposes that I can't just agree once for the whole suite, but heck, it would save me a lot of minor headaches if it was a unified agreement.

  • Audio Problems with Fast/Slow/Reverse Effect in iMovie HD

    I have been having problems with the Fast/Slow/Reverse effect in iMovie HD with my movie clips. Whenever I apply the effect (reversing at the same playback speed, not sped up or slowed down), when it is finished rendering the audio is choppy, yet on time (but still backwards, as wanted). Before applying the effect, the preview of it works flawlessly, it is only when it is applied that the audio gets choppy. Extracting the audio will not help either because the video will still be playing backwards while the audio will be playing normally (since it can't be reversed on its own). I have tried other effects on the same clips that don't effect the audio and they work perfectly. Any suggestions? I'd really appreciate your help! Thanks.

    Have you got an isolated hard drive with ALL of the required applications and other resources together with the operating system ? Using an external HD to SAVE a running iMovie project is asking for problems. Back up the Project on another HD sure, but don't use System on one HD, running files on another.
    Hope Helps,

  • How do I select a photo from the timeline to apply an effect.

    I am tryiing to select an individual photo on the timeline to apply an effect like a zoom or pan.

    Jules789
    I suspect your answer is for you to right click the video (your slideshow in video .psess format) now on the Premiere Elements 11 Expert workspace Timeline and then select and click on "Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow" command. The command will achieve that and you should be able to move forward with your editing plans.
    The above applies if these are the details of your workflow which I believe to be the case....
    1. In the Elements Organizer 11 Slideshow Editor you put together some photos and used the Slide Show Editor's Cross Dissolve transition in the Slideshow Editor slideshow.
    2. You outputted the slideshow from the Elements Organizer 11 Slide Show Editor using the Output option of Edit with Premiere Elements Editor.
    3. When you do that you will find in Project Assets, a folder with the projects assets as well as one copy of the slideshow as a video in .psess format. There will also be a copy of the .psess video on the Timeline.
    4. When you use that route, the Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow command is available to you in order for you to make additional significant edits to the slideshow before a burn to.
    If you use any of the Slide Show Editor options to create the wmv version of the slideshow (Burn to Disc or Save As A File Movie wmv), the file on the Timeline will be a whole video in wmv format. That cannot be broken apart with the Break Apart Elements Organizer Slideshow command.
    Please review my assumptions and speculations and let us know if the answer that I provided was appropriate under the circumstances.
    If not, lots more details please.
    Thanks.

  • Unable to apply connection settings. The detailed error message is: 'NoCount' is not a recognized option

    My corporate database wizards have created a login for my small subsidiary to use to read selected data from the HR database.  It's meant to be used by an SSIS package to bring over data on who's a current employee and who's not.  
    The package has started returning connection errors, and when I try to log into the HR database via SSMS using this login I get the following message:  
    "Unable to apply connection settings.  The detailed error message is" 'NoCount' is not a recognized option."  
    If I click on OK I can still log in, but it looks like this error is causing SSIS to produce an error.  I've seen articles on vaguely similar errors logging onto an Azure database, but this one's on SQL Server 2012.  
    Anybody got any ideas?  Is there something I can change at my end, or is it a change that has to be made in the remote DB?  

    I'm getting confused seeing this
    The package has started returning connection errors, and when I try to log into the HR database via SSMS using this login

  • How come I need to render EVERY TIME I apply an effect in Premiere Pro CC?

    I am using Premiere Pro CC version 7.2.2 (33) on a 2.9 GHz Intel Core i5 iMac with 24GB of memory and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660M 512 MB graphics card. The footage I am importing is ProRes 422 1920x1080 square pixel 24 frames progressive footage.
    When I place clips onto the timeline, they play without any issue. In fact, they play beautifully! However, whenever I apply an effect, the clips needs to be rendered. Here's the biggest problem though, every effect needs to be rendered and I don't even need to change the settings of the effect. Just placing the effect on the clip causes a red line to appear above my clip.
    Help!?

    Kevin,
    They do play back. They don't become labored or jerky until I begin taxing the GPU with stacked or complex effects. John T Smith was right on about the hardware deficiency and your insight into my FCP past and red render lines completed the answer for me.
    It looks like I'm now in the market for a hardware upgrade.
    Thank you, both.

  • Applying One effect to several clips (not tracks!)

    i have one track with about 40 clips in it of different cut up audio. i want to apply one effect to several different clips at once. how do i do that?
    i know how to apply the one effect to one clip, but if i try and shift click four different clips, and then go to add an effect to it, the effects are grayed out
    and i really don't want to go into each clip, add an effect, adjust it and save it for every clip.
    is there an easier way?

    There are a few ways to do this. The simple way is to apply the filter to one clip. Open it into the viewer and change the parameters as you like. Select all the other clips and drag the filter name from the viewer onto the other clips. They all have the same setting.

  • Applying video effects in Premiere at the track or media level?

    Hello,
       I am trying to adjust to the Premiere workflow, coming from Vegas, and have a question regarding the application of video effects. Premiere seems to apply effects at the clip level - for example, if there is a cut in the clip, the effect is only applied to a portion of the clip. Vegas allows for the application of effects at the media level - no matter how many cuts have been made - or at the track level. Is there something comparable in Premiere? I have been trying to apply the Neat Video effect, and the only thing I can think of is to select multiple clips when applying it, but it seems to crash Premiere when I do that. Any advice on making this work would be much appreciated.
       On a related topic, does Premiere apply effects in a chain, as they are added, or does it automatically perform an reffect first if it should be applied first? In other words, does it matter in what order the effects are applied, and if so, is there a rough order of how they should be applied?

    I'm running Premiere Pro 5.5 and have been able to lasso and apply my effects to several of my clips all at once.
    Once you apply the effect and fine-tune (if need be), you can right-click and create a User Preset to help save time (say if all of your clips needed to be color corrected). The User Presets are the first folder listed in the Effects bin.
    As far as the effects order are concerned, you pretty much have to play around with those yourself. I use a Video Limiter effect with a ProcAmp and have noticed that if they aren't in a certain order (the first listed effect is the first applied...) it changes how it looks and not always for the best. Best bet is to play around and see what order of video effects works best for you.
    Good Luck!

  • Is there a way to apply an effect (same settings) on multiple files?

    I think the title pretty much says it all. I know that I can create a preset and for the dozen or so files I'm working with now that's not such a big deal, but if I get work through this client I could be working with fifty or so files and the time to open, add the effect, save, and close adds up fast. I've tried saving an applescript but that doesn't seem to work with applying an effect. Any suggestions?

    Copy the clip with the effect. Select the clips you want to apply it do. Use Edit>Paste Effects.

  • Apply video effect to a segment of a clip?

    I am selecting a small segment of a larger clip, when I apply a video effect like "Black & White"  the effect is put on the entire clip, not the part I have selected.
    Am I missing something?

    Sigamy
    Put your playhead (the yellow vertical line) where you want your effect to start, then hit command+B, then move the playhead where you want the effect to end, then hit command+B again, this will create a new stand alone clip that you can now apply your effect to without impacting the other parts of the clip.
