Video newbie needs help with multicam editing

Hi all,
My video editing experience is limited to a few iMovie projects, which you can view on YT (search for TheChampsTube). For our final gig we did a 3 camera shoot, which was supposed to be produced by the videographer. But he dropped the ball, and now I have the files - a motley assortment of m2t, mp4, xml and sfk - I'm converting with Handbrake. My ancient iMac can't run FCP X so that's out. Also, I'm on a low budget, and will probably only need the software for this one project. Can someone recommend an inexpensive way for me to get this footage assembled? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You could try this technique.
Or borrow a friend's Mac that supports FCP X and download the trial.
Good luck.
Russ

The program software should install fine (others report using it successfully) but the difficulty has always been registering it. To do this you need to find a program (that often people discard, unfortunately) called ce2kreg.exe and run that. That's where you enter your registration details, and how you get rid of all the noises that CE2000 will put all over your audio otherwise (unless you severely restrict the facilities you can use).
It used to be the case that if you'd lost the registration program but had the serial numbers, that Adobe would send you a copy of ce2kreg.exe, but somehow I doubt that they'd be willing to do this any more - it was a long time ago now, after all.

I am Creating a Kickstarter fund raising campaign video and need help with how to do it?

I need help in putting together a 2-3 minute video for my Kickstarter fund raising campaign titled 1 YEAR, 10,000 PIECES, 1 ARTIST Live Streaming 24/7. I only have images and voice to work with no video camera and I need as simple iMovie tutorial as possible since I have a brain injury disability, which means it takes me about 4 times longer then a person with an un-injured brain to put together something like this.
Thanks for the help!
Kris

There are good video Tutorials for iMovie here (iMovie 09) http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/
and here (iMovie 08) http://www.apple.com/findouthow/movies/imovie08.html.
Also here is a good written Tutorial. http://www.kenstone.net/fcp_homepage/imovie_09_stone.html

MSI P67A-C45 (B3) Newb needs Help with connections..

Hi all..
First time posting here, but have been in the shadows for quite a while..
Anyway, i decided to finally take the plunge, and build my own PC, and now i'm beginning to hit a few bumps.
I have a couple of questions that i would like some help with, if possible to reassure myself i may be in the right direction..
I bought THIS PSU and was hoping someone could tell me where the Blue connectors (one labelled CP and one labelled U1) Connect to?
Is it into JPWR2? And does it/do they only connect in the correct way? (Do i remove the plastic cap and attach both?
and i bought THIS VIDEO/GRAPHICS CARD and i'm guessing the RED "PCI express" and "SLI ready" connect to that somehow (Haven't opened box yet for card)
Again, wondering is there a certain way for them to connect.
Also, from my chassis, the "AC '97" and "HDA" connectors go to JAUD (I guess), does it matter which one? (I currently have "HDA" connected)
I have i5 2500k already on board. (If that makes a difference).

Do the Audio plugs go into JAUD? and does it matter which one?
Yep, connect the front panel audio to the JAUD. If you need the pin layout, it says in the manual. I would say the HDA connector is the one to connect.
Quote from: Ben_Cartwright on 26-May-11, 22:05:35
Any recommendations for testing it all, before i plug it in, and press the power?
Should i (Can i) test individual parts first?
Thanks again.
Check all power connections, seating of the RAM and add-on cards, check the HSF is plugged into the fan header, and obvious things like that.
As for testing, enter the BIOS and make sure the CPU isn't running too hot. Set up the RAM with the required timings and voltage, and test with >>Memtest86<< for several hours. No point starting the Windows installation if say your RAM has errors, since it will corrupt files during the install, if it installs at all.

Newbie needs help with Flex app

Hi there. I am very new to Flex and also fairly new to
programming although I do have a little experience.
I am trying to create an app which stores code snippets or
common text I tend to use every day in my documents and emails.
So basically I need help on a design level. I can refer to
the developer's manual for exact instructions for commands, but I
need to know what to code first.
The app will consist of:
-a tree directory structure where I can create groups.
-There will be a basic text editor where I input all my data,
basic text formatting options (font, bullets etc) would be a bonus.
-A search function
-Finally it will ideally allow multiple client apps write to
a central database file over a network
Can anyone suggest how I should approach such a project?
Or are there any tutorials / source files which demonstrate
each bullet point?
thanks.

Hey jono,
I'm new too. But I think I might know the right components.
If you google any of these + flex 3 you should get some
decent documentation
tree - advanced dataGrid component
basic text editor - rich text editor component
search function - well, you're gonna need to read up on
arrays, and arraycollection. Once you get that stuff working, you
can write up a function to search for a string in an array.
network functionality - HTTPService, you can dump the
datagrid into a database, and have it load the database when you
open up the application.
Give these things a shot, tutorials / sources will come with
the google searches.

Newbie needs help with browser compatibility

Ok, so I'm new at this, so this may be something really
simple, but browser compatibility? I made a site in DW;html and it
shows up perfect in safari but internet explorer and firefox not so
much. I did a browser compatibility test in DW and it says nothing
is wrong with my pages, but obviously something must be!!
On my home page, the image of a house that I have next to the
company name shows up fine in safari but not any other browsers.
And my page layout, everything is moved over funny in other
browsers. Also there are link boxes around the table I created with
different brands of products. On safari the boxes do not show, but
all the other browsers it does!! I'm new at this and frustrated!!!
Need help!!
The link is holmeshifi.com and I posted code from the home
page!

OK thanks Ned sorry to soo dumb I'm on a learning curve here! what
I'm trying to do is go to the URLs of web galleries of images from my
main site
so I would presumably have to rename them on my server? i.e. does that
mean adding the code ", "_blank");
to the files on the server?
At the moment I have to use the back button on my browser window which
takes me back to the main site which then has to reload (tediously!)

AE "newbie" needs help with effect - (please!)

Hi all:
I'm working on a highlight video of my daughter - she's the goalie for her H.S. Lacrosse team. I recently bought the Creative Cloud subscription. I'm editing the video in Premiere Pro CC on an iMac - OSX 10.7.5.
I'm putting together a short intro/open, and trying to add some effect to my daughter in the clip shown below. She is running/jumping - I want to be able to isolate just her and add some sort of color effect, a glow (or even just make everything else b&w). Obviously, my problem is with masking or roto brushing. I've spent many hours (probably too many!) watching tutorials and reading the help articles -- and I just can't seem to get it right. I saw a video talking about the much anticipated October update - and wondering if the new Mask Tracker will do what I need/want?
Here is the clip - (my daughter is #11 - the only one wearing a helmet)
Thanks in advance for any guidance/help/suggestions you can provide,
Kim

Thanks again for pointing me in the direction of the Motion Tracking and Rotoscoping tutorial.
I successfully (in my opinion, anyway!) was able to apply an effect to the moving object (my daughter ). There are a few places that I could tighten up the mask, but it's not too bad - and I just realized I forgot to feather the mask - so that will help as well.
I tried a bunch of different effects -- but really wasn't happy with any of them. I went ahead and just made her B&W just for illustrative purposes.
What I'd really like to do is make the background B&W and keep her in color.
I tried applying the B&W effect onto the footage layer -- but it seemed to make everything b&w - including my masked/rotoscoped object. I am sure that it is very simple to do -- but haven't been able to find the right instructions.
(I looped the clip a few times - since it is only about 1.5 seconds long)..
So - again - thanks in advance for helping me figure out how to apply the B&W to just the background!

Need help with multicams.

I have created two multicam sequences where the video and the audio in the second multicam overlaps onto the first multicam. When I pull the 1st multicam into the timeline it works fine (as it comes in on V! & A1). When I pull in the second multicam, it only comes in as one camera. I created a second sequence and copied it and pasted it into the first sequence and the multicam ONLY works when it is on V1 & A1. It does not work on V2 & A2. I need to overlay the two to synch them with a third audio track and can't figure out how to do it. I called Adobe and they were NO help. Senior technicians had left for the day and I need to get this finished this weekend. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Here is a screen shot with the multicam sequences both on V1 &A1. It shows up as a multicam and would work okay, but........
Where I have to synch the two multicam shots is shown in the screen shot. It is now on V2 & A2 and is no longer a multicam sequence but this is ABOUT (rough estimate is shown in screen shot) where I need to cut the clip. The audio is music with applause and is VERY difficult to hear with all the screaming of the kids going on in the background. I can't match the patterns on A1 & A2 to A3 as the sound patterns do not match up. The audio track in A3 is the only the music track and will be used in the final cut but the two multicams overlap each other and I can't determine where to cut them to:
I need to figure out a way to synch (by audio in A1, A2 & A3) the two multicams. I can't determine where the 1st multicam needs to end and the second begin as the audio tracks don't are split somewhere in the middle with A3.
I hope this additional information helps. Thanks again.

Oracle SQL Newbie need help with OE Demo Schema Installation

Hello everybody !
I'm hoping some kind soul can help out this SQL newbie.
First of all i've installed 10g R2 database on a PC running XP SP2.
Oracle is installed on the root C: drive
I'm using the SQL Fundamentals I Exam Guide and DBA Handbook (Both Oracle Press)
as my reference.
My problem is this.
I installed the DB and created the demo HR schema without too much problem
but it's the demo OE schema i'm having problems getting running and cannot
find anywhere on the net that outlines a step by step SQL process.
I am using SQL Plus to execute these commands.
My questions are these:
-For the default tablespace i specify "users" ?
-What do i specify for the temporary tablespace ? "temp" ?
-what directory path do i put for the data files as parameter 6 ?
I put down "C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\demo\schema\order_entry" but i suspect it's
the wrong thing ?
-What do i specify for the writable directory path for the log files ?
Is it C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\RDBMS\log
-And what is "Specify version as parameter 8:" line ?
I assumed it was the db version but i believe it's wrong.
Could somebody please help me ? I've already done my CCNA and i wanted to add oracle under my belt.
I know if i had these few things cleared up for me it would pave the way to actually enjoying learning Oracle :)
Thank you for any assistance :)

I installed the DB products from the companion disk and there was no specific mention of the demo schemas. Regardless... They're all there within the demo subfolder and have already created the hr schema.. I just need somebody (I'll pay if necessary) to PLEASE just answer (what would be easy to you guys my questions so i can move on.
this is a cap from my sql plus..

Flash Newbie needs help with Movie Clips/Action Scripting

Hi -
I'm having a problem with my movie clips playing
simultaneously and cannot, for the life of me, figure out what I
have done wrong. I'm new to flash, so I may have set something up
incorrectly, but here's what I have so far:
11 layers, total: 1 layer with 10 control buttons, each
button with the following actionscript:
on (release) {
gotoAndPlay(85);
Where the number changes in relation to which keyframe the
next movie is on.
I have 10 movies, total, but they are only movie clips,
essentially photo slide shows with audio, made all in the library.
The problem happens when I click on the second or third
button. Not only does the movie that I have selected begin to play,
but all of the previous clips do as well, so it all sounds quite
garbled. I don't know what I am missing in the action script, as my
Action Layer has a stop command on it at each keyframe where there
is a new clip to play.
I have tried to add a stopAllSounds command, but I'm afraid
that doesn't do anything because it is not a "sound file" per se,
playing in the timeline.
I'm at the end of my rope and really need some help in
figuring this one out. My project is hanging in the balance on
this, as I have scripted everything else correctly and it runs
beautifully.
Please help!
Thanks,
Caroline

Each layer has a blank keyframe before and after each
movieclip. Each movie clip is at a different frame. Even with the
blank keyframes added, the second video starts to play and then the
first video begins to play. Same happens if I click on the third
button. Third plays, and starts 1st and 2nd shortly thereafter. Is
there an action script I can put in that will tell the timeline
that, when a button is clicked, no matter where the movieclip is,
it will stop and start the newly selected movieclip?

Newbie need help with Web BEx setup!

Out of curiosity, I decided to install Netweaver so I can have a play with it. I am a complete newbie to Netweaver therefore I apologise if this is out of context...
Here's my question:
How do one go about getting Web BEx to work?
Whenever I activate the link in the portal, I get an error about unknown "SWITCH_AXES" command and 0ANALYSIS type 4 error. I search the forum and the few passing mentions of the problem points to OSS notes that is only accessible through service marketplace (which I don't have an ID). I have check the object types in BI content and seems that 0ANALYSIS is already activated. There must be something I am missing. Tried blindly and randomly installed other BI content (mostly Web templates and objects) but to no avail (and encounted a few short dumps).
Any help is greatly appreciated!
So far, here're what I did:
1) Install Netweaver 2004S ABAP and Java on the same machine. Instance 00, 01 and 02 respectively.
2) Try to run BI-Java template installer, but met with error part way. So some of the steps are done manually.
3) Set up SLD (both instance are in the landscape), and 'partially' set up SSO. Partially as while JAVA to ABAP seems to work, ABAP to JAVA is not working. Anoying but livable.
4) Installed TREX (instance 03) and are seen by ABAP and JAVA.
5) ABAP is seen in the portal and I can create transactional iviews and put them in the Portal (with working SSO).
6) Did reverse-proxying with Apache, but I don't think it matters as it seems to be a backend module issue.
7) Business planning/wizard is working (in ABAP and Portal) as is Broadcast. As you can see, Web BEx is the only thing that is not working

The default link for Web Analyser in EP 7 seems to point to the new template. When opening the analysis template in the new BEx windows tool, the same error is being reported. Using 3.5.x WAD, I can't locate the template.
More on this issue Although for that case, the meta data is not installed. Is there a way to trace missing component and reinstall the needed BI content in RSA1?
BTW, these are on JAVA SP9 and ABAP SP11.

Newb needs help with dynamic text

Hi Everyone,
I don't like being a newb - but that's how it is...
I'm trying to create a multipage registration form that
allows uses to register products.
The first page asks for name etc, and on the second page I
want it to say "Welcome "+username "!" - that sort of thing...
The problem is I can't get it to keep the dynamic text values
accross the pages.
I can get it to repeat the input on the first page with this
code:
_root.firstname_txt.onChanged = function() {
_root.firstname_repeat.text="Hello
"+_root.firstname_txt.text;
However when I call it on the second page it is undefined:
second_repeat.text="hello "+_root.firstnamt_txt.text;
trace (_root.second_repeat.text);
I'm sure this is something simple and I'm just a programming
dunce...
Any help is appreciated.
ta

if your textfield (_root.firstname_repeat) doesn't exist on
the 2nd frame, its text property will be undefined.
to remedy, either extend your textfield's existance into the
frames needed or use a variable to store its text property (in your
onChanged handler) and use that variable to retrieve the value you
need.

Crypto newb: Need help with encrypting data for offline Swing app

Hi all,
I'm VERY new to cryptography. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I've created a Swing application that is intended to be used offline (no network connections are established by the app). I need to export XML files from this application, to be transported via floppy to another instance of the application on a different computer for import. The information is sensitive and must be encrypted!
I started looking into AES and using asymmetric ciphers (public/private key encryption). But then I realized that if Jane is exporting a file for Bob to view, she won't have access to Bob's public key (no network access). Ugghh!
I noticed another solution in this forum where the person suggested using password encryption. It was an old post and I think it used DES. Anyway, password encryption doesn't seem too secure.
So, I thought I'd create a symmetic key (correct term?) once, store it in the program directory, and distribute it with the application installer. That way, everyone would have the same key and would be able to encrypt/decrypt each others files. Right? Err... I'm not sure.
Like I said, I'm a newb at crypto. If someone could suggest the best/most secure way to accomplish this, I would be eternally grateful.
PLEASE HELP!!! :-D
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, Grant. I must've posted that last one just
after your response. I was intending the message to
be for Anand. Heh - you have no idea how many times I've done the same thing. It's an artifact of the asynchronous nature of message boards.
Your response is very helpful. Out of
curiosity, does my last post provide any more insight
that would change your mind? Or do you still believe
that using password encryption and letting the user
choose/provide the password is the best solution?Well, as you noted, giving everyone two sets of keypairs is semantically equivalent to giving everyone a single symmetric key. And, as I've noted, it's completely INsecure - everyone who gets access to an install disk, either legitimately or no, can read every transmission your app makes forever after. Cryptographically speaking, this is Not A Good Thing.
The advantage of PBE is that it's easy for your users to exchange keys when their machines can't see each other. The real key here is that your app, if you really want it to be secure, MUST allow/require that transmission between Alice and Bob use a different key than that between Alice and Carlos or Bob and Carlos - otherwise, if Eve compromises any user of your software, ALL users are compromised.
I'd go with PBE, just because other alternatives are painful for your end users. You could use generated KeyPairs, for example, if you provide a means for users to exchange public keys. If you display Bob's public key in encoded, String-able form, then Bob can either email that to Alice or read it off to her over the phone. Into your app Alice loads/types in that public key, and the app now knows how to secure communications with Bob.
Public keys are large, though, and people screw them up typing them in. And many users have TERRIBLE key discipline - if Bob loses access to his private key, he can't read anything Alice sends. And if his private key is readable on some public shared folder (which happens with a totally-frightening regularity), then we're back to no security at all.
Use one of the triple-DES PBE Ciphers, and get on with making your app do what you really want it to do, would be my advice. (Free advice, of course, being worth every penny you pay!)
Once again, thanks a bunch!Glad to help.

Need help with audio edit - how can I censor myself?

Hello, all. I have a problem that I don't know how to solve.
Let me say, first and foremost, how much I dislike iMovie '08. I miss '06 so much! It was so straightforward and easy to use. This new (well, now old) version is so blocky and simple that it's completely backwards; I straight-up don't know how to operate it. And I'm a film student! It's so embarrassing.
Here's the problem. I'm working on editing a vlog for release tomorrow, and I need to "bleep" a bad word I say. I have the censor beep, and I have it anchored over the clip I want to censor, but I can't find a way to actually mute the audio from the video, so that only the bleep plays. At this point, I'm bleeping, but you can still hear the bad word. Completely ineffectual.
I've tried everything in my extremely limited arsenal to solve this problem, but no dice. Help!

Drag the mouse to select the video frames that you want to mute. A yellow border should be around them.
Then, EDIT//SPLIT CLIP (or right-click/Split Clip).
On this split clip, open the Audio Inspector and set the volume to zero.
