Wich tool for best looking titles

I will be doing color correcting and titles for a 90 min indie film. What are your suggestions for creating great looking titles. I usually find the Text in FCP average at best...Is the Boris Text 3D that much better ???
Will titles benifit greatly from using 8 bit uncompressed vs the original DV codec ??? I will upconvert the original Dv footage to 8 bit uncompressed anyways for color correction but was curious if anyone actually compare titles done in DV and uncompressed format. Thanks

is Boris 3D included free with FCP 5 or just a try out ??? If i understand correctly, you said that titles over BW is in full rez and if colored or laying over colored then it gets compressed. If this is true then there's no need for me, as long as i do titles in BW, to work in uncompressed format.
I thought that whatever CODEC you set in your sequence then the final movie ouput will have that CODEC, so if it was DV then 5:1 compression and 4:1:1 color compression will be on each frame wether it's title BW or not...Maybe you/someone can clarify on this. Thanks again.

Consistent Color Settings in Aperture & PS for Best Looking Book

I would like to get input from the users on this forum on how best to keep the color profiles consistent, from shooting, to image editing in Aperture and in Photoshop CS2 and finally, to get the best looking Aperture hardcover book.
Here are the settings that I am using:
Canon 10D DSLR camera, using standard "parameter" setting for large JPEG: sRGB
Apple Cinema Display 30": profiled using GretagMacbeth (Xrite) Eye One Color, with gamma at 2.2 and D65 Kelvin temperature setting.
Aperture>View Menu>Proofing Profile: sRGB IEC91966-2.1
Aperture Screen Profiling Enabled.
External Editor-Photoshop CS2 Working Color Space: Edit Menu>Color Settings: Working Space:
RGB = sRGB IEC61966-2.1
CMYK: U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2
Gray: Gray gamma 2.2
Spot: Dot gain 20%
And here is my question. After selecting a JPEG photo that is embedded with sRGB profile from within Aperture, I select "external editor" (Photoshop CS2) for further image editing. When I do that, Photoshop dialog box "Embedded Profile Mismatch" opens up and states,
Embedded: sRGB Profile
Working: sRGB IEC61966-2.1
It asks me to make a selection:
1. Use the embedded profile (instead of Working Space)
2. Convert document's color to the working space.
3. Discard the embedded profile (do't color manage).
I've been selecting #1...."Use embedded profile".
So, now that I am nearing the point of putting a Aperture book together, I'm wondering if I have created a problem for myself when my "working color space" is sRGB IEC61966-2.1 and my embedded color profile in the JPEGs are sRGB.
When I did a test sample when the "Profile Mismtach" window came up, I selected "Convert document's color to the working space" and I could not tell the color difference on my Apple Cinema Display.
Also, when I looked at the metadata on the "converted photo", it still had the sRGB profile and not "sRGB IEC61966-2,1".
Should I worry about this mismatch between what are embedded on my JPEGs and my working color space on my Apple Cinema Display?
Should I NOT use sRGB IEC61966-2.1 proofing (Aperture) and color setting (Photoshop) profile. Instead, stick with sRGB on both settings? Or does it matter....I cannot tell the difference with my brief test.
I realize that from reading other posts, Apple does not have a ICC profile for the book companies that print for Apple. Also, I've read about in this forum about the "Average McCoy Gloss Profile" but I'm not sure if anyone has used this using Aperture1.5 and that posting is now closed. Furthermore, I've read somewhere that Apple uses the RGB profiles for book printing, not CMYK. Thank you.

Welcome to the forum.
First off, you need to go and buy a hardware monitor calibrator, such as an OptixXR or similar. This will build a custom monitor profile for your specific screen. Without this starting point you can forget ANY attempt at accurate colour matching.
Never (and I mean never) use a working space such as sRGB or Adobe98 as your monitor profile, that's not what they are designed for. Working spaces control what colours are possible in the image, monitor profiles control how those colours are shown on screen. Aperture uses it's own working space so you don't have to worry about that too much.
To answer the rest far too briefly, I'd suggest setting the proofing profile to sRGB and of course use sRGB for the export preset. The gamma setting you will have to adjust depending on how dark the Lightjet prints look compared to your screen. You will have to do test-strips to start with.
Your images looking crap on flickr on Windows machines is partly because Windows web browsers generally do NO colour correction, and only partly to do with the different gamma.

What is the best tools for analyzer VoIP

I need ur help, i looking the tool helps analyzer VoIP in WAN/TDM. What is the best tool for Cisco System or wich recommends.
Thxs!

Hey turbot,
Thanks for contacting National Instruments support. Each set of the vis you mention are the latest, and some use similar methods to do the FFT than the other. The SMT is usually the best in most applications. There is also another option in the case of scope, you can fetch FFT data from the driver. The FFT is not actually implemented in hardware, but in the driver, and this is transparent to the user. It's simpler to use, but not as efficient as the SMT.
I hop this answers your questions. Let me know if I can be of further help.

Best tool for cloning drive and regular back-ups

A 500gb 7200.4 seagate drive just arrived, and I'm intending on cloning the 500gb 5400rpm stock drive in my 15" 2.8ghz unibody MBP to the 7200.4 (attached in a 2.5 SATA USB enclosure), and then using the 7200.4 as the main drive, once I've found time time to install it internally. Once I've done that, the 5400rpm stock drive will be used for regular back-ups via completely cloning the upgraded internal disk.
I have CCC installed, but I've rarely used it, and I've noticed that the OS X disk services appears to have a 'create image' option. And then there's Time Machine, which I know very little about. The most important thing is that I need a bootable disk which, in theory, could simply be installed in a new machine and I'll be right where I left off. Which is the best back-up tool for this?

Hi Neil,
I have CCC installed, but I've rarely used it, and I've noticed that the OS X disk services appears to have a 'create image' option. And then there's Time Machine, which I know very little about.

CCC is a very good tool for what you gave in mind. SuperDuper http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html is another one in the same league.
Time Machine is a good backup tool, since it backups once the complete content of your OSX harddisk and further on only the changed files.
It can also be used the restore the OSX but for this you have to boot from the OSX DVD.
To me using CCC or SuperDuper would be exactly what you are looking for:
Making a bootable clone onto your external HD, from which you can either boot-up your Mac or simply reinstall the external HD in your Mac.

The Best Tool For Multiple Animated Objects

Hi,
I am expirimenting with Flash Web Sites, and I would like suggestions as to a starting point for my project, and I am assuming a Flash website is where I would start.
Basically, If I were to open up a web page, I would like to see multiple animated objects. For example, if I were to simulate an Emergency Room, I would have an EKG displaying a heart rate, then perhaps see a breathing maching apparatus moving up and down, a Drip bag (sorry, don't know the real term), dripping into a patient's tube. And of course, if I were to roll over an object it would animate, and if clicked on more animation or on to another page.
I tried creating the animated objects in Fireworks, and I thought I could combine various Firworks files into one, but it didn't work (too many frames), either becasue I lack the knowlege of how to do this or simply it cannot be done that way in Fireworks. I had a background with one animated flashing object (that was easy), but combining multiple independent objects, I could not figure it out.
Someone suggested that I would have to use Action Scripts, which made me realize, I don't know the best way to accomplish my example above, and although I know I may be over my head, I would just like to get direction as to where I should begin.
Should it all be in Flash in the first place? To continue on with the example above, after a user clicks on the rollover image, a girney comes rolling in and we are giving choices on a monitor with what our next actions should be, which would take us into another page. (this is just to give you perpective of what I am trying to accomplish).
Should I create independent animated objects (files) in Fireworks, then somehow import them into their specified location in Flash.
I hope this makes sense and I am hoping someone is kind enough to provide a starting point.
Best.

Flash is the best tool for what you want and most of it can be done once you get a handle on the basics.
For you interactivity (rollOvers / triggering more animations with mouse) you will need some actionscript but don't get hung up on that now.
There is a world of info out there. Google "animation basics in flash) you may have to weed through some garbage but you will find what you are looking for somewhere.

Is Business Manager the best tool for our company?

I have a number of quesitons to answer to figure out if Busienss Manager is the best tool for our company. The ONLY reason we are pursuing changing from individual accounts is that Share Screen has been removed from some of our accounts with the latest Skype update.
Can we port existing Skype account names to Business Manager?
Will Skype contacts be kept?
Is 'Share Screen' part of Business Man.?
Is it east to add and delete user accounts in Business Manager?
What are the admin issues?
Can more than one person be the administrator? Is it easily transfered?
The Business Manager literature refers to credit allocation, tracking and reporting as a benefit of Business manager. Credit is not a concern for our company as we seldom use Skype to call phones. What are the other benefits of Skype business Manager?
Thank you for your time and help.

Up until a few weeks ago I would certainly reccomend Skype, but my advice is for youy to look for another company.
Skype doesn't care about it's business customers, I and others have been trying to buy credits for week but the system is broken with no fix in sight, I was told it would be fixed by the end of the week, it hasn't been!!
Read for yourself then go look for another phone provider, Skype is not responsive to business customers!

Database - Best tool for making report

Hi everybody,
We're developping an application with HTML-DB. Our users want to extract some reports.Those users are used to work MS-Excel to make reports.
My question is what is the best tool for producing this kind of reports ?
Is it with HTML DB (report), Discoverer or Oracle Reports ?
Thank you. Bye.

The answer, as with all of ORacle's products, is "It depends".
Oracle Discoverer, once set up, is very easy to use as a 'developer' and as a 'report recipient' across the web. Looks and feels like Excel. Personally my first choice for a medium user to power user level from a 'create reports' perspective. Prepare to have a Disco Administrator, but that is usually a 'power user' rather than an IT guru.
Oracle Reports is much more powerful, useful for high-end reporting and control of reporting such as multi-bursting to individual printers, caching, PDF and CSS generation - but it requires a person who is interested in becoming competent at reports. It's also a bit of a bear to set up.
A lot of reports can be accomplished using SQLPlus or iSQLPlus. Too many people are not aware of the power of the environment and end up going for high-end tools when SQLPlus will do.
HTMLDB is OK and designed to be simple. I haven't used it much, so I'm the wrong person to comment.

Best video capture tool for Panasonic AG-DVX100A

I'm trying to decide on the best video capture/ media converter tool for my Panasonic AG-DVX100A. The choice is between the Grass Valley ADVC 110 Media Converter and the BlackMagic Design Video Device for Mac OS10. Has anyone used either/both of these. What advantages do each have over the other? Thanks for your time and advice.

Hi -
The Grass Valley ADVC 110 Media Converter requirers firewire.
I have and use the Blackmagic Video recorder which is USB based -
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/558914-REG/BlackmagicDesign_VIDREC_Video_Recorder_USBCapture.html
BUT it converts the video to H.264 format which is a very difficult format to edit in. It is primarily designed to allow you to load video on to your computer for viewing, posting to you tube, or other very simple uses.
If you intend to edit these files with iMovie, you might be able to get away with it (although importing the files will be slow), if you plan to edit with Final Cut Express or Final Cut Pro you will need to convert them to an editable format.
You might look at taking your camera somewhere to a facility that can properly capture the DV material on your Mini-DV tapes and put them on an external hard disk for you.
Then you could plug in that disk on your computer and obtain access to the files that way.
Hope this helps.

Looking for a specific title...

Hi,
I have been scouring the usual plug-in sources for iMovie looking for a specific kind of title. Since I have not found it, I thought I would describe it here to see if anyone knows if it exists or where I can get it.
I am looking for a title which scrolls multiple lines of text one at a time to a paused position. i.e.
Line #1: Scrolls to top of screen and pauses. Remains.
Line #2: Scrolls to just below line one and pauses. Remains
Line # 3: Scrolls to just below line two and pauses. etc.
I am looking for a way to tell a story on one title screen in a sort of dramatic way. I want my viewer to digest the first part of the information and then have the remaining info scroll up. Does that make sense?
If anyone out there has any clue as to what I am talking about, I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks,
Shannon

I guess I should had stated that I need a laptop no questions asked, I need it to be portable. If an external monitor was an option I may as well get a desktop... I'm aware of laptop's short comings but what I was hoping to gain from this post was information on current models that fulfill decent photo editing specs, in regards to laptops.. not desktop solutions..
So those expensive models you mentioned would be a good start. Would you mind sharing them with me? I've linked a model I'm pretty interested in, and would like the opinion of the community on it's potential and maybe any other models they know of that can match it.
Thanks again.

Looking for best practice on application scope beans

Hey â€“ a portal newbie here. Iâ€™ve got some application scope beans that need to be initialized on startup. First thought was to create a servlet that would set the bean. Then I saw the GlobalApp setting, but I think that looks like it is more session scope than applicationâ€¦ Looking to be corrected here if I am wrong.
Is there a place where these type of things traditionally happen? Read only, so no cluster worries (I think) Using WLP 8.1 SP4 and looking for best practices. Thanks for the help!

To support "code sharing" you need an integrated source code control system. Several options are out there but CVS (https://www.cvshome.org/) is a nice choice, and it's completely free and it runs on Windows, Linux, and most UNIX variants.
Your next decision is on IDE and application server. These are usually from a single "source". For instance, you can choose Oracle's JDeveloper and Deploy to Oracle Application Server; or go with free NetBeans IDE and Jakarta Tomcat; or IBM's WebSphere and their application server. Selection of IDE and AppServer will likely result in heated debates.

Hi nicpulse,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
Since this forum is to discuss: Visual Studio WPF/SL Designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation
and Help System, and Visual Studio Editor.
>>VS.PHP vs PHP TOOLS for Visual Studio : which is the best ?
Based on your issue, since the PHP Tools and VS.PHP are involved to the Extensions tool,
this extension tool is out of support range of this forum.
In my option, I think that there have no specified answer about which is the best in the
VS.PHP vs PHP TOOLS for Visual Studio.
It is just depend on which is appropriate for your requirement, so I suggest you can see the feature about the VS.PHP and
PHP Tools. And then choose which extension tool is appropriate your requirement.

I am looking for best wireless earphones for my iPhone 5s

I am looking for best wireless earphones. I travel a lot and I need good sound quality earphones.

"Best" in something like headphones is very much a matter of personal preference. Much depends on the type of heaphones you're looking for and how much you're willing to spend. I am very, very fond of the Beats Studio HDs. I take public transportation and they block out most of the annoyances. They are also large and expensive. I can't use them for running.
www.ilounge.com used to do pretty good reviews of accessories for iOS devices. Or, try Amazon, tons of reviews there.
