What should my sequence settings be for this situation?

Hello everyone,
I'm about to start a project with a few different formats combined on the same sequence, so I'm wondering what format you would all use for the sequence?
My project will consist of:
10% DVCPRO HD 720p60 footage from a P2 card
10% AVCHD 1080i30 footage from a Canon Vixia HF20
10% Quicktime Animation footage created in After Effects
70% JPEG images (slide show) of resolutions larger than 1920 x 1080
I'm not sure of the resolution of the Quicktime Animation footage from After Effects, since I haven't created it yet.  I'll create it with a resolution that matches my sequence resolution.
I'm thinking the sequence resolution should be 1080p30, to take advantage of the high res JPEG images.  The final delivery will be a h.264 file for web streaming on Vimeo.
So this is where I need the help:  what sequence format should I use for editing?  Is this a good situation in which to use a ProRes format?  I've never used ProRes on a PC before, and I'm not really sure which specific ProRes format would be best to use here.
I'm editing with Premiere Pro CS5 on a PC, and I do have the latest version of Quicktime Pro installed.
Thanks!

Yeah, I agree... edit at 720, because that's the maximum for Vimeo, and also your smallest footage is at 720... bringing it up to 1080 may make it look bad.
I've edited mixed footage before, and I generally use the sequence for the "hardest" footage to edit (which is generally AVCHD). I do it no because I know that to be the best, but because I DON'T know what information specifically goes into the different sequences, and I do know that AVCHD can tax my system, so when I have to use it, I try to optimize for it.

  • What Should my sequence settings for H264, 1280x720/30fps be.  Pro Res422?

    I have a job coming up and an fully aware of the nightmare of editing H.264.  The footage I've got was shot on a flip camera.  H.264, 1280x720 at 30fps.  The deliverable is DVD.  Am I right in choosing ProRes 422 for the sequence settings?  I notice when comparing the clip in the browser window to the same clip in the viewer window, the clip in the viewer window looks a tad wider.  Is this a pixel aspect thing. 
    My sequence settings are as follows;
    Under the General Tab;
    Frame Size: 1280x720
    Aspect ratio: HDTV 720p (16:9)
    Pixel Aspect Ratio:  Square  (Anamorphic 16:9 is unchecked0
    Field Dominance: Lower (even)
    Editing Timebase: 29.97
    QuickTime Video Settings:
    Compressor: Apple ProRes 422
    Quality: 100
    Audio: 44.1

    Shane, thank you for your reply.   I want to be sure I understand you correctly.  Convert the footage before bringing it in to FCP (compressor), or can I just render in the time line as I build the sequence?  I plan on exporting a same as file for use in DVD studio Pro for a deliverable.

  • What should your sequence settings be when editing with H264 in CC?

    I keep getting a yellow bar when editing with H264 no matter what I make my settings as.  Is there a way to fix this?

  • What type of column to use for this situation in SharePoint 2010?

    Hi there,
    In a SharePoint 2010 list - I have to add a few columns which need users to pick a numeric value and it's unit of measurement. E.g.
    - 30 (Inches/ft/cms)  <-- Here 30 is a number field and then a dropdown to select a unit.
    An option is to create two columns (1st - Number type and 2nd Dropdown with Inches/ft/cms values).
    But I have a lot of such sets in the same list and am not sure if above is the best way to go?
    Are there any other options for me? Is a Site Content Type a good option? Anything else?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I can think of two ways that you can accomplish what you are trying to -
    1. Content types could be a way or Create Site columns and prepopluate the values in these columns and use it in your list
    2. create custom column (C#) see here for more info -http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff648469.aspx

    Re: IPAD2 very slow after IOS 8 upgradein response to pacoKAS
    SOLVED:  IOS 8 Issues on iPad 2:
    I just returned home from a visit to the Genius Bar. Like you and many others, when I upgraded my iPad 2 to IOS 8, it became practically unusable. It was VERY slow, lagged whenever trying to to do anything. Lots of screen freezes and apps spontaneously crashing. I was convinced that the processor on the iPad 2 just couldn't handle the new IOS and I went in to see about restoring to IOS 7.
    Thankfully, I was hooked up with a very sharp guy at the bar. The problem is not with the OS, it is with it being an *upgraded* OS. He used the analogy of when you had an older Windows computer and how over time (and over upgrades), they just tended to get slower and slower because of all of the garbage that was carried forward in the upgrades. At those times (and if you've ever had a Windows computer, you get this), the only thing that would speed it up would be to wipe the machine and do a fresh install of the current OS and then reload your apps, and the viola, everything would be fast again. Well, it turns out that IOS can suffer the same problems.
    THE FIX:  FIRST, be sure you have a current iCloud backup of your device.  Connect your iPad to a computer that has a clean fresh copy of IOS 8 on iTunes (this is best done with a computer other than the one that you sync your device to because you DO NOT want to restore it from a back up just yet). Ideally, if you do this at an Apple store you'll be assured of the right version there and someone to answer any questions you might have along the way. You then hold the power and home button down to hard-reset the device and continue to hold them down until it reboots into recovery mode. You then follow the instructions on the computer to reinstall the OS on the device (which wipes everything from it and then reinstalls a clean copy of it). Once this is done (which only takes about 15 minutes), your device will reboot and ask you to set it up. Answer the questions about language, location, etc. and continue until it asks you to log into your iTunes account. Once you do that, it will ask if you want to either 1) Set it up as a new device, 2) Restore from iCloud, or 3) Restore from iTunes. Choose (2), restore from iCloud. This will ensure that it brings down "clean" copies of all of your apps and preferences rather than the potentially corrupted ones that might reside in your iTunes backup. That's it! It will take a few hours depending on how much data and apps you have, but I am happy to report that my iPad 2 is now running IOS 8 and it's running as fast as it ever did when it was brand new!
    To sum it up, this process 1) Wipes your device and the garbage causing your problems, 2) Loads a clean and bug-free version of IOS 8 to your device, and 3) restores your apps and data so that it looks just like it did before the wipe, with the exception that it works now!  :-)
    Note also that by following this process you don't have to go through the painful and laborious process of reloading all of your apps, data and/or settings. iCloud takes care of all of that for you.

  • What should the"default behavior" be for WiFi network connections?

    I Have been able to at least temporarily fix the plethora of problems encountered after downloading Mountain Lion to my 2009 17" MBP just ten days ago.  Thanks to the time and effort of so many posters that are much more savvy than me, I successfully executed the steps suggested in many of the posts and with good results.  It surely beats running down to the Apple store and being told that I am the only one with a problem.
    Okay,  I've  realized that I don't really know what the default behavior of the WiFi network connection should be? 
    Specifically:
    Should the Wi-Fi drop down in Network always be" looking for networks", even though I am obviously on my Network?
    Should the Wi-Fi be connected at all times even when your computer is in sleep mode- or deep sleep mode?  There have been so many problems with Wi-Fi dropping off,slow or hanging loads, etc.
    I unchecked "ask to join networks, in Network preferences thinking it might stop looking for networks when it doesn't need to because I'm already on mine.  I do see my neighbors (four neighbors) in the drop down in Network. 
    How do you get into Time Capsule's settings, to check speeds, especially ping?  What should the ideal settings be?
    How do you know if your DHCP license is renewed? I've heard that feature isn't working and may be the culprit to some of the Wi-Fi problems.
    I'll look forward to your help in understanding more about this.  I've been in the support  area a lot lately, I've read plenty of definitions, and explanations of the different options to choose from in Apple's support area, but nowhere have I seen anything that explains what the default behavior should be or perform  like. 
    Thanks, as always.

    Generally, you don't want to tweak the wifi settings. It pretty much takes care of itself. The caveat to that is, of course, if you're experiencing problems.
    The 'looking for networks' behaviour only happens when you log in, wake the mac from sleep OR when you click on the wifi icon. You clicking on it tells the mac  "I want to see what networks are available" - so it does a scan for you to check to see if any new networks have appeared since you last clicked on it (or woke/logged in). In short, if you don't want it to look for new networks, don't click on the icon!
    Unchecking the 'ask to join networks' option only applies when your mac detects a new network (such as when it wakes) that you haven't already authorised; it'll ask you to confirm whether you want to join it or not. Otherwise, if the network is open it'll join automatically. You should keep this selected if you travel around with your Mac. It's a good idea to know what network you're on before you start plugging in passwords or typing other things into the mac.
    There is a utility that you can use for ping and traceroute called 'Network Utility'. Click on the Spotlight icon in the top right of your screen and type "Network' and you should see it at the top of the list. Hit 'return' to open it.
    DHCP licences are normally renewed automatically by your router every 24 hours. Again, there's no reason to be messing about with that unless you're experiencing problems.
    If you're experiencing wifi dropout, let us know, and we'll make some suggestions, but if you're not, you're best leaving your mac to manage the background processes. It knows what it's doing!

    The monitor of my MacBook Pro suddenly became all black, I tried to reset but it did not work, what should I do? Why does this happen?

    I advise to reply to the one you want to reply to.
    You have had good information here. I will not repeat that here.
    I would like to add:
    you have incompatible software: start in SafeMode, read Woodmeister and see if it is free of issues.
    Akamai is crap software needed or not, Huawei the same.
    It is very possible that the keygenerator you used for generating a key for some softwares has infected your mac.
    The non-regular software with the false key(s) are not compatible probably or generate malware. Luckily you can not update them automatically because the keygenerator blocked the software for contacting the developer... I propose to consider getting rid of those softwares by really good uninstalling.
    You have a beautiful mac, don't degenerate it with crapped software. There are alternatives for expensive software, for example Adobe Photoshop has a free alternative (with a less beautiful interface) in GIMP. And so on.

  • What Is The Proper J2EE Architect For This National Defense Project?

    A brief description of a national defense project I am looking into is that the system being developed is supposed to verify the "smartcard" of the card holder and his/her fingerprints against the Defense Department database. The system also reads in information about people (facial features, height, weight, etc.) and stores the information in the database, and then issues new "smartcard".
    1. People involved in the project already decided to use swing for the client tier.
    2. The problem is the Defense Department database. It is a flat file database and this database cannot be touched. It is a black box for Java developers. The Defense Department may provide a jar as an outer layer of this database.
    Question 1: Is the web tier essential for this defense project?
    Question 2: What is the proper J2EE architect for this project?
    Question 3: How to deal with the data problem? Especially it looks that entity beans are not applicable.
    Question 4: How does the system handle very heavy load? It is possible that tens of thousands of people will use the system at the same time.

  • When or should XML be used and why for this situation?

    I am developing a 3-tiered web application (database, server, browser) that will use JSP to display a form where the user will enter their name and address information, JDBC for the connection to a mySQL database.
    When the user enters their name and address information on the JSP displayed using the broswer, the data when submitted will be placed in the database.
    How could I use XML for this situation? Is it really needed at all since I know it can all be done using only JSP? I am just wondering how using XML could help?
    Please give me any feedback you can...if you need more detail to what I am trying to do, let me know....
    Thank you so much in advance!!!

    Hi,
    XML is really useful for representing data from different resources. E.g. it can take a database and represent it as an xml document or it could be an xml document hosted on an external server. By using XML in the jsps, the jsp is completed oblivious to where the xml data came from i.e. either a database or an xml doc. Using XML provides a level of abstraction so that the jsp only needs to know the methods to access/retrieve data not how to access the data i.e. it doesn't have to worry about how to connect to the database, and create sql statements.
    In the situation described if you can be sure that the information that the jsp retrieves will be only from a database then you do not need to use xml, otherwise by using xml you adhere to good-old object design principles.
    There is a paper on using xml and jsp see:
    http://java.sun.com/products/jsp/html/JSPXML.html
    Hope this helps.
