Why do I need rendering tool?

Hello,
I'm new to GIS, I always have some doubt with GIS tool, If we have the spatial data in Oracle,
a.) why do we need a GIS tool to render ?
1.) what is the advantage of GIS tool ?
2.) why not write your Java code to render ? ( is that difficult to do that ?)
Thanks
Bala

a.) If you want to view your spatial data as a map.
1.) Combine Oracle data with data from elsewhere (e.g. Shape files directly)
2.) If all you need is a simple map, yes one could do that, for simple map viewing
it is not too difficult, but if you want a little more (complex queries presented in a nice
UI it will take you).

When I import a Quick Time movie into the timeline using Final Cut Express, why does it need rendering?

when I import a Quick Time movie into the timeline using Final Cut Express, why does it need rendering?

Because your clip properties do not match your sequence settings.
It will help a lot if you provide details ...
FCE Easy Setup
Sequence settings (vid rate, frame size, compressor)
Source of your clips (camcorder make/model, etc)
Clip properties (vid rate, frame size, compressor)

Why does it need rendering anytime I move / add a 'standard' clip?

Im spending a lot of time rendering standard DV footage, even when i simply add a new clip of change an existing one, it seems to want rendered all the time.....any ideas
(im new to FCP, so the answer is probably easy....forgive my ignorance...)
cheers

Assuming your problem is that the sequence and clip settings don't match, the way this usually happens is that the editor creates a new project, THEN changes the Easy Setup. Then captures clips and drops them into Sequence 1.
Problem is, Sequence 1 was auto created before the Easy Setup was changed, and so it has the settings that were in place before the Easy Setup was changed.
The correct procedure, after closing all existing projects, is to FIRST change the Easy Setup, THEN create a new project. The sequence that is created with the new project will have the correct settings for the clips you're about to create.
For now, choose the DV PAL Easy Setup, then create a new sequence. Drop your DV PAL clips into the new sequence, and you'll have a better go of it, I think.

Sequence is DV-PAL, clips are DV-PAL, but Audio needs rendering in Timeline

Hello everyone.
I'm just getting started with FCE 4. Here's my problem: i set up FCE with the easy configuration to work in DV-PAL. Then i copied some clips i had captured with iMovie 06 from an old project file to another folder on my external firewire harddrive. I then imported these clips into FCE. These clips are also in DV-PAL, since they came from a DV-camcorder. The videotrack is fine, but the audiotracks are only played back in the viewer but not in the canvas/timeline. All i get there are the beeps, which indicate they have to be rendered. If i do render them, the audiotracks are played back in the timeline as well, but from what i've read in this forum and elsewhere, rendering shouldn't be necessary at all when the sequence and videoclips have the same format. Any ideas why the audiotracks need rendering?
Thanks and regards, Thorsten

Hi there!
Fortunately, importing iMovie footage was only some kind of quick way to get at least some footage into FCE to experiment with. I only got FCE a few days ago and had no new Footage on tape, so i thought i might as well use already captured video files. I know better now and won't mix up any projects. Although i have some very useful plug-ins for iMovie like the gee three image stabilization. That's something that (as far as i know) FCE can't do. So i do think about using both programs. Not on whole projects, but probably on single clips. Like working on shaky footage in iMovie, then exporting it as a single clip in QuickTime so that FCE can work with it. Could be a little too much hassle, though. I'll see when i try it.
Best regards,
Thorsten

Why do you need to shift click to select stroke color with eyedropper tool?

Hi,
Quick question..
Why do you need to shift click to select the stroke color with the eyedropper tool?
I had the problem where I could not do this earlier and found the solution on this forum.
However I still do not understand the reason for this.
Appreciate if anyone could explain it to me.
Thanks in advance.
Nori

Hi, Nori,
If you have the red and blue rectangle selected and the Fill square selected in the tool panel, as at bottom left, then hold the shift key down and click with the eyedropper on the green stroke in the upper rectangle, then the red fill will turn green but the stroke stays blue. If you select Stroke, as at bottom right, then shift-click with the eyedropper on the green stroke, the blue stroke will turn green but the fill stays red. With Fill selected and shift-click on the yellow fill, the red fill turns yellow; with Stroke selected the blue stroke turns yellow. If you do not depress the shift key, the red and blue rectangle will become yellow and green.
It's complicated to explain, but I think that if you try it step by step it will make sense to you.

Why do we need IDE or tools for java card programming?

Hi,
I am a newbie to java card, using java card kit tools themself, we can test and burn the code into card right?
then why do we need IDE for java card, please correct me , if i am wrong,
Thanks in advance,
Sri.

Dear Sri,
We have compiler, linker etc for every language starting of from C or C++ or Java. JDK has all the tools necessary to develop and run a Java program. Similarly Java Card Development Kit has all the tools for developing and deploying a Java Card applet. But what an IDE does is too integrate all these tools and make it easier for the JavaCard programmer to develop his applets. Just like Eclipse is used for Java applet development.And not everytime the code is burned to the card. Its only during masking code is burned to the card, i.e if u can call it burning. Masking makes an applet permanent on the card.

Cinematized QT's always need rendering... why?

I experimented with every video output option Cinematize has and even the lowest resolution QT file with no audio requires rendering in my timeline. I have FCP 6, so it asks if I want to switch the timeline to match the clip, but still RED LINE. I've tried every easy setup! and i've customized my sequence settings to my clips... so WHY?!
Here are my clip settings: 29.92, 640x480, DV/DVCPRO - NTSC, pixel aspect = square. Is it the frame size? is it my powerbook? I have an HDV project that processes HDV footage fine... but not this!
I already trashed my preferences and fiddled with the sequence playback...
any help is much appreciated. Thank you
-A-

Cinematized QT's always need rendering... why?
Because your clips are not matching your FCP Sequence settings. If your Sequence settings are DV NTSC, then you need 720x480 (rectangular pixels) with the audio being AIFF, 48khz, 16 bit.

Newly Captured Clips Need Rendering--why?

I've seen similar questions posted about things needed rendering when it seems they shouldn't...but none of the answers seem to help me and none are exactly the same, so...
Here's my dilemna:
I've been using Final Cut Pro on a G4 Power Mac with a 1.25gig processor and 1 gig of RAM and it's been fine for my purposes. Even though I've been using high def video, newly caputres clips don't need rendering until I start working with them (as they shouldn't).
BUT...I've tried installing the same software on both a MacMini and a PowerBook G4 (each having the same speed processor) and with both alternate computers a newly captured high def clip will appear with a red bar over it, I won't be able to preview anything but a still, and rendering will take about 7 minutes per half minute of video. My question is why?
It's primarly the PowerBook I want to get going on Final Cut so I can edit wherever I am, but I can't work with it if I need to render every fresh clip. Two small differences : (1) My PowerBook only has 756 megs of RAM as opposed to a full gig on the PowerMac. (2) I'd done other projects on the PowerMac with FinalCutExpress before getting Pro, so maybe there was a codec already installed on that one that I need on the PowerBook.
If anyone can help, I'd really appreciate it. It seems like what works with one 1.25 gig processor should work the same with similar chips on different computers, but it doesn't...

Quite right, David (and Jerry). My problem was indeed a matter of the setup not matching the formatting of the clips. I had a hard time understanding that this was the problem because EVERYTHING seemed to work on the PowerMac and NOTHING on the PowerBook (or MacMini which I set up with FinalCut to see if the PowerBook was to blame.)
I guess it was just a matter of being lucky that the PowerMac's setup was correct for what I was doing and unlucky that the PowerBook's was not. Anyone experiences similar confusion may also be helped by a Shane tutorial I found in a separate thread--

--it broadened my understanding of setups and sequences. Thanks, all.

Why does my nested sequence need rendering?

Folks, I have a twelve sequences that are fully rendered and I am nesting them onto one timeline. The new timeline has the same settings as the other sequences. Why do my already rendered timelines require rerendering on the nested sequence? Is there any way around this. It would seem there's some way to take already rendered sequences and line them up on one sequence without having to rerender.
The project is XDCAM EX 1080p24

Nevermind folks, I figured it out. I had my render control settings set to Apple Pro Res on some timelines.

Sound import to 25 fps sequence is always out of sync and need rendering!!!

Anyone know why an aif sound file from Pro Tools imported to 25 fps sequence is always out of sync and needs rendering? It is like FCP is converting it to another freq. when it is 48k already! I do this all the time with NTSC and 23.98 projects, what is up with the 25 frame seq.??
Thanks, Mark

Your audio files must be 48,000 kHz AIFF files if you want to use them in Final Cut Pro.
If the originals are coming from CD's they are 44,100 kHz.
Resample in Soundtrack Pro or convert in QuickTime Player.
Your location says you are in LA. Why are you working in in PAL?
I know that things need to be at 48K this would not matter anyway if it was 44.1 FCP would do the conversion and not make it out of sync in an NTSC Timeline, but a PAL timeline FCP screws with the sound file. The files came from pro Tools, the industry standard should mixing.
I put them through Sound Track Pro and it did not help.
LA is the entertainment center of the world, we send project all over the world.

What are Layers? And why do I need them?

WHAT ARE LAYERS? AND WHY DO I NEED THEM?
Layers are an essential part of Photoshop. With Layers you can separate pictures or design elements from each other, as if they are stacked on pieces of glass. With all elements separate, you can move or change them independent of each other.
Layers are used for many tasks, including improving your images' color or tone; merging two or more images in one Photoshop file; and creating Web designs and animations.

PHOTOSHOP/ LAYERS BASICS - Reference Guide

After creating the mask and applying adjustment, you can also adjust and change layer mask using selection tools or, the most common way, using brush tools.
To have a more accurate preview of what are you doing, Alt + click on the layer mask thumbnail to show the mask in the image area.
At this point, you will have a layer mask on your screen in large view, so it is easy to fine tune it, but you wont see how that affects your image.
To seean instant preview how changes on layer mask affects the adjustments, use New Window for (name of your image) from Window > Arrange.

Dimension declaration. Why do we need it?

Hey, Oracle data warehouse gurus.
It should be an easy question for you.
Why do we need to declare dimension on the top of the dimension table (CREATE DIMENTION dimension_name ...)?
It seems to me that many functions such as rollup, cube and the like do not need this dimension metadata.
I am using Crystal Holos OLAP server to do data mining and reporting and again this tool (at least version 7.5) does not use dimension metadata. I suppose that some OLAP servers do.
Thanks in advance for your answer.

Web Service
A Web Service is a software system that supports interoperable interaction over a network from one computer or machine to another but is more commonly defined as a client and a server communicating data over the Web using the HTTP Protocol. Using Web Services along with Business Objects allows a live connection of data to be used in applications such as Xcelsius and Crystal Reports through a semantic layer called a Universe.

Apple ProRes 422 HQ needs rendering, but it shouldn't.

Sequence Settings (hereafter called the master sequence) are:
Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) 1920 X 1080 24p 48khz preset.
Frame Size: 1920 X 1080 (HDTV 1080i 16:9)
Pixel Aspect: Square
Editing Timebase: 23.98fps
Compressor: Apple ProRes 422 HQ
Audio: 48khz/16-bit
Footage is:
Apple ProRes 422 (HQ)
Frame Size: 1920 X 1080
Pixel Aspect: Square
Editing Timebase: 23.98fps
Compressor: Apple ProRes 422 HQ
Audio: 48khz/16-bit
Data Rate: 19.5 MB/sec
I need to put a timecode window burn on the entire movie for a web clip. So I exported a ProRes master as a QuickTime movie using the sequence settings. I then imported that clip and slipped it into a new sequence with identical settings (hereafter called TimeCode burn sequence) and was surprised to see the red render bar across the entire sequence.
As an experiment, I exported a brief (one minute) clip from the same master sequence. I then slipped that clip into my TimeCode burn sequence and it does not need rendering (it shouldn't).
I shouldn't have to render the Master clip first, only to have to re-render it once I but the window burn on. The movie is 30 min. long and the file size is 34GB. Is there a file size limit on ProRes HQ clips that don't need rendering? Why don't the shorter clips from the same sequence need rendering. I don't understand this. Very time consuming.
EDIT: I will probably end up using the Timecode Generator option in Compressor, so please don't suggest this, as I am aware of it. I want to figure out this mystery.

No, you're absolutely correct to use HQ. Just checking.
The Red footage is has 4:4:4 subsampling, so HQ's the way to go.
If you generally use Recompress All Frames on Export then you probably know that it's pointless to render your timeline before an Export, since your Render files won't be accessed. Unless you need to work in that same sequence with the timecode - but, you could just use your exported master for that.
I know the recompress all frames option is probably overkill for a sequence with only one effect, but I'm also thinking about drive space. With those huge Red files, your render files have to be eating up quite a lot of it.
So, I'm suggesting that you don't need to render this sequence before exporting. Just export the unrendered sequence with Recompress All Frames. That saves you the space the render files would be taking up.

Why do we need cygwin for Apps R12 on windows ?

Hi,
Can someone throw some light on
---Why do we need cygwin for Apps R12 on windows ?
Which kind of activites need cygwin for R12 Apps.
-sasi

Hi Sasi;
You need to use mkstoolkit or cywgwin to work EBS on windows coz of to can run some perl and also can use some command as kill, ps, ls etc..Apps tier also need that program can compile something inside.
Please see:
The Cygwin tools are ports of the popular GNU development tools for Microsoft Windows. They run thanks to the Cygwin library which provides the POSIX system calls and environment these programs expect.
With these tools installed, it is possible to write Windows console or GUI applications that make use of significant parts of the POSIX API. As a result, it is possible to easily port many Unix programs without the need for extensive changes to the source code. This includes configuring and building most of the available GNU software (including the packages included with the Cygwin development tools themselves) as well as lots of BSD tools and packages (including OpenSSH). Even if the development tools are of little to no use to you, you may have interest in the many standard POSIX utilities provided with the package. They can be used from one of the provided Unix shells like bash, tcsh or zsh, as well as from the standard Windows command shell if you have to for some sad reason.
