Using Referenced Events: Good Idea?

As a legacy FCE user, I developed a clip management scheme which works for me.
In converting to FCP X I see that it is common to import clips to FCP X by copying them to the FCP X events files.
However, by unchecking the Copy Files box on the import dialog, it appears to create a referenced event in FCP X, leaving the actual clip in its original location.
My question is: Is there any real problem with using the referenced event concept for my FCP X projects?
Seems like a good idea to me.
Any comments would be appreciated.

You're welcome, Rex
My workflow with FCE was to create a project dedicated to converting AVCHD footage to Quicktime Intermediate files. After conversion, I would cut all the clips from the browser that I just converted, save the Project, and it was ready to go for next time. I would then move the converted clips out of the Scratch folder to any folder I wanted.
I suppose the same thing could be done with FCPX, but I really like the functionality and ease of the new application’s Event Library (once it recognizes the correct drive, which another issue altogether), and am revising my thinking (a work in progress, heh) about organization.

I want to get a Mac Air and use my MacBook as a slave when using GoToMyPC. Good idea?

Premiere Pro CC2014 on Mac Pro 2013 using Bootcamp. Good idea?

I'm thinking of getting a Mac Pro (late 2013 'trashcan' model with 6 core processor) due to it's portability vs a regular desktop and due to it's over original purchase price resale value if re-sold in Brazil. Since the Mac version of Premiere seems to be buggier than the Windows version, based on forum discussions I've read, and since I much prefer Windows vs OSX, can anyone with experience running the latest version of Premiere Pro on a MacPro through Bootcamp chip in with their thoughts? Does it work just as well as running Premiere CC2014 on a native Windows desktop? Are there any issues I should be aware of? Problems with connecting devices through Thunderbolt ports with Bootcamp?
Thanks for any input!!!
BTW, I don't want this thread to turn into a Windows vs OSX debate, unless directly related to the performance/stability of Premiere Pro. Thanks.

mojo,
Do you have QuickTime and the associated codecs installed in your PC?
Thanks,

I want to use a fantom diamond as an external hard drive for my mac, is this a good idea?

Using a Macbook pro, with Snow Leopard (I think), and my memory is full so I want to store my stuff on an external hard drive. I found a 2T Fantom Diamond EHD, but I'm now learning that I have to convert to NTFS-3g. I'm not computer savy so I want to know if this is a good idea, or should I look for something different. Also, can I set up the EHD as the default path for itunes?

This is not the forum for MacBook Pro owners.
You just need to reformat the drive in Disk Utility and erase the drive and have Mac HFS.
If you did need to use NTFS then you would not want -3G but Paragon NTFS for OS X x. 10.0
Or buy something that isn't pre-formatted to Windows NT file system.
First though make sure you have backups of your system. TimeMachine being used now?
http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-TimeMachine-drive.html
http://www.apple.com/support/timemachine/
Maybe cleanout some files you don't need.
Install a larger notebook hard drive even.
http://www.macsales.com/firewire has a lot of choice in Mac compatible drives and enclosures so you don't need to worry about Fantom not working at some point.

Use of "Rel" Attribute in Links -- Good Idea?

Hi --
I was reading about various SEO methods recently and came
across several
pages which advocate the use of the "Rel" attribute on a
hyperlink. The idea
being that the "Rel" may influence how a search engine views
a link and
possibly help with ranking. For example: <a
href="help.html" rel="Help">
need help?</a>.
Sounds like a good idea, but the more I read the confused I
became. A Danny
Sullivan article about use of the attribute "nofollow" used
by major search
engines made sense. It was the other article I read which
used all
different types of attributes that confused me such as
rel="met colleague",
rel="alternate". Is there someplace I can go to find a list
of widely
accepted attributes?
Anyone have any experience with this?
John

Thanks, Joe. Yep, the source is the best place to start.
Should have
thought of that myself.
I suspect you're assessment is correct...won't hurt, might
help.
Thanks again.

Considering using 20" Imac with larger external monitor - good idea?

I've just returned my 24" Imac for a refund due to the uneven brightness issue. I want a set up for my illustration work, but can't justify the price of a mac pro + monitor. Therefore I'm considering a 20" Imac 2.4 GHZ, and connecting an external 23/24" monitor that has better consistent brightness than the Imac screens, e.g. the Dell 2407WFP-HC or an 23" Apple cinema display. The idea is that, any problems with gradients on the Imac screen won't bother me as I'll be using it merely as a web browser.
Is this a good idea? Will there be any problems running a larger monitor of the Imac - any compatibility issues etc. Can anyone recommend a good screen around the £500 mark or under? I basically want a screen that isn't obviously brighter on one side than the other, as the Imac appears to be.

I know uneven lighting is a complaint among 24" iMac users - and I've seen two myself. But not all of them have the problem. You might want to consider trying another before giving up on them. Having said that - take a look at Samsung displays. I don't know what they run in the UK but I'm very impressed with the ones we have at work.

Which Event Classes i should use for finding good indexs and statistics for queries in SP.

Dear all,
I am trying to use pro filer to create a trace,so that it can be used as workload in
"Database Engine Tuning Advisor" for optimization of one stored procedure.
Please tel me about the Event classes which i should use in trace.
The stored proc contains three insert queries which insert data into a table variable,
Finally a select query is used on same table variable with one union of the same table variable, to generate a sequence for records based on certain condition of few columns.
There are three cases where i am using the above structure of the SP, so there are three SPS out of three , i will chose one based on their performance.
1) There is only one table with three inserts which gets into a table variable with a final sequence creation block.
2) There are 15 tables with 45 inserts , which gets into a tabel variable with a final
sequence creation block.
3)
There are 3 tables with 9 inserts , which gets into a table variable with a final
sequence creation block.
In all the above case number of record will be around 5 lacks.
Purpose is optimization of queries in SP
like which Event Classes i should use for finding good indexs and statistics for queries in SP.
yours sincerely

"Database Engine Tuning Advisor" for optimization of one stored procedure.

You can use the "Tuning" template to capture the workload to a trace file that can be used by the DETA. See
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190957(v=sql.105).aspx
If you are capturing the workload of a production server, I suggest you not do that directly from Profiler as that can impact server performance. Instead, start/stop the Profiler Tuning template against a test server and then script the trace
definition (File-->Export-->Script Trace Definition). You can then customize the script (e.g. file name) and run the script against the prod server to capture the workload to the specified file. Stop and remove the trace after the workload
is captured with sp_trace_setstatus:
DECLARE @TraceID int = <trace id returned by the trace create script>
EXEC sp_trace_setstatus @TraceID, 0; --stop trace
EXEC sp_trace_setstatus @TraceID, 2; --remove trace definition

Is using a taskbar icon in .exe combined with windows service a good idea as part of an alarm system?

My client wants an alert system and his focus is on the taskbar. He wants the icon to change, (and ideally even blink) and also to have some beeping when a new work request comes in. It needs to run constantly, and grab the attention of an operator
who may not be paying much attention to the screen.
I’m excited to develop this, but after years of web development, I feel paralyzed. I must be making this harder than it needs to be, but here’s my plan… I'll start with a windows form, which will run minimized, and have an icon that looks like
a hammer in the taskbar. A timer would continually check for a new service requests. When it sees one it would change the toolbar icon to a red x and sent a few dozen beeps out to the operator. I think I need a windows service running that
checks periodically to see if my windows exe is running. If not, it should start it up. Perhaps this could be a scheduled task, rather than a service.
Some of my questions are;
How do I change the taskbar icon on the fly?
Is this a good idea, or is there an easier way?
Snippets of code or related articles are most welcome!
Thanks!

So I created a windows form and added a timer to check for unacknowledged requests. If it finds any, it changes the icon on for the taskbar, and makes a beep. Simple, but it works. However, I'm having a beep of a time trying to figure out
where to put the ico files so they are where they need when I publish it. Others seem to suggest adding them using the properties of the application, under application / resources / Icon and manigest blah blah blah. But I can only seem to add one
there. I need the three different ones. I'm confused! Any suggestions?
private bool iconBig = true;
private Icon redcross = new Icon("..\\NewRequest.ico");
private Icon redcross2 = new Icon("..\\NewRequest2.ico");
private Icon hammer = new Icon("..\\Hammer.ico");
private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
List<WorkRequest> myWorkRequests = WorkRequestData.WorkRequest_unAcknowledged();
if (myWorkRequests.Count > 0)
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
SystemSounds.Beep.Play();
if (iconBig == true)
iconBig = false;
this.Icon = redcross;
this.Refresh();
else
iconBig = true;
this.Icon = redcross2;
this.Refresh();
else
this.Icon = hammer;
this.Refresh();

Is it a good idea to use ABAP objects for reports?

Building pages to use dbms_scheduler like in OEM, is it a good idea?

In OEM, there's already full featured web pages to administrate scheduler objects, sometimes, OEM is very heavy in load, during my first testing, it even make my db server hang, run out of swap. But I try to build a simple page to submit jobs using dbms_scheduler, it works file and quite light weighted.
So is it a good idea to build scheduler administration pages in Apex? will it be like reinvent a wheel?

This is what I am trying to do but have run into the 'insufficient privileges' problem. I am actually trying to give our users the ability to schedule some of the jobs associated with their application. I've been able to submit a job through Toad under the schema used by the application. But I'm not sure whether I need to grant the appropriate privileges to run the scheduler package to the flows schema as well. I have also been able to schedule the job through the SQL Workshop in the APEX application builder, but I can't do it through the application. Any suggestions?

Hi Guys! I have an Imac with Mac OS X version 10.5.8 and bought a wireless keyboard. Unfortunately I can´t use the volume buttons on the keyboard. I have checked almost everything, does anyone have any good idea?

Hi Guys! I have an Imac with Mac OS X version 10.5.8 and bought a wireless keyboard. Unfortunately I can´t use the volume buttons on the keyboard. I have checked almost everything, does anyone have any good idea?

Hello, try kguy's solution here...
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2332457?start=0&tstart=0
First, Go to System Preferences, keyboard, and click on the Keyboard tab
Make sure that the checkbox by "Use all F1, F2, etc, keys as standard function keys" is NOT checked.
Next, click on the Show All button, and select Bluetooth. You should see your Apple Wireless Keyboard listed on the left side of the screen.
Click once to select it, and then click the gear icon at the bottom of the box, and choose Disconnect.
Power off the keyboard by holding down the power button on the keyboard for a few seconds until it show "keyboard Off on your imac screen, then turn it back on again.
The device should appear once again in your bluetooth list.
Try out the volume control buttons now, and see if that cleared things up

When you double click the circle buttom, and the little bar pops up from what you have been using... is it using data while being in there? is it a good idea to minimize evertthing out of there often so its not using more data ? or does it not matter?

Not sure if it uses data, but that allows you to multitask. To save battery life you should close out of all the apps.
