Windows 7 WMV Import / Export problems

Greetings,
Due to nature of CS4 having it's own rendering engine, current codec changes mis-effects it a lot.
For instance, a clean install on a clean install Windows 7 RC....
WMV files just can not be converted:
If you play/preview them inside Premiere CS4, you will see video struttering, jerky playback.
If you just try to convert them by AME, you will get following error: "Error Compiling Movie Unknown Error"
I wonder if it is a known bug or subject to change with next update or something extra that should be done. Just wanted to let you know.
Here are computer specs:
Intel Core2Quad Q6600 @ 2.4 Ghz
nVidia 8800 GTS 512mb
4 GB RAM
Windows 7 RC Build 7100 x64
Premiere CS4 (Updated via auto-updates)
This is about all WMV's I've tested so far. My main encoding target was F4V. I've tried anything such as Installing Windows 7 and without installing any further codecs, just installing CS4 OR clean install Windows 7 and codecs after and after CS4. Result did not change.
My latest test wmv: http://download.intel.com/pressroom/kits/sot/Star_Global.wmv
Finally I'm guessing that has to do with either codec change in Media Player 12 but then I thought, it does have nothing to do with CS4 engine itself. Quicktime movies converts and loads just fine for instance.
So did anyone experience such issue or any work-around or any fix on the way?

Description of you is Beta,
RC is release candidate and it is almost as equal to Final Release unless there is a critical bug in Operating System itself to stop it work. It is too late for 3rd party programs checking which MS is not responsible off for compability.
Second, ofcourse, noone expecting a W7 certification from Adobe CS4 product. Adobe often release new pack with every OS rather than converting old products compability for "financial" reasons.
Now off the codec issue:
WMV playback is perfectly fine with every single other player without any 3rd party codec installation just like Vista, Vista x64 per se... I said in my first post, I've tried it without any 3rd party codecs (WMV is default codec already for Windows you know, you dont need any codecs for it normally) and there appears the problem, you can't play WMV files INSIDE PPro and get "Unknown Error" messages along with AME.
So here is final check list
1. Without any 3rd party codecs or filters installed, WMV plays just fine on WMP, Media Players, etc. Not in CS4
2. With 3rd party codecs and filters installed, WMV plays just as fine on WMP, Media players etc. Not in CS4
3. I dont know if MS did anything inside OS or actually WMV format, but nothing indicates remotely about that, it is STILL WMP9
And wine snob, "Getting official certified" logo is one thing, writing a code that works globally on NT kernel is another. I've got editing and image processing software last updated at year 2001 that works in x64 Windows 7 without any problems... You'd expect better from Adobe... At least an update or workaround till they acquire a computer that has a Windows 7 RC on it (hey, it is released you know, you could always ask to MS for a free copy) I mean a software company should not be that alien on changes on platforms they sell their product and prepare for full release, no? As I said, I lost my hope on x64 Flash Player already after 2 years of same topic "Coming soon" on Knowledge base...

WMV Import/Export Issues (Odd Resulting Video)

Hello all,
I've been plagued with a problem that has had me scratching my head for days now. My scenario is I need to create a number of short slideshows. I've been using PhotoStory 3 to create the basic slideshow, then importing the video from PS to Premiere to add a voiceover. The problem is when I import the video slideshow, when I play the video on Premiere's timeline some parts of the video have been dropped (i.e. one picture will start fading to the next, and the video will suddenly go black for a few seconds, then fade to the next picture) and some of the fade transitions in-between pictures have been abruptly cut short.
What's even weider is that deleting the video from Premiere, shutting Premiere down and then restarting it and re-importing the slideshow sometimes fixes the problem. Sometimes it introduces different missing video segments; sometimes there are more problems than before.
When (by simple luck) the video plays properly on Premiere's timeline, I've tried to export the video as a WMV. The result is more black segments and skipped transitions. I also tried rendering the same as a DV file, which fixed everything except one black segment. On another occasion, I managed to render one slideshow as a WMV with no issues at all. But only once, and after a number of failed attempts.
What should I do? Any WMV file not from Photostory imports and exports just fine. I tried using Premiere's slideshow capabilities (automate to timeline), but the pan/zooming is far too manual. Encore does the job great, but it can't export to anything other than DVD (I need WMV!). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Specs: Dell XPS 410, 2.66 GHz w/ dual core processors, 4 gigs RAM, Vista Home Premium

I would avoid the conversion to DV and then to mpeg. If you really need to edit the video, then do not use Photostory.
If you are leaving the video from Photostory alone, why not do the voiceover in Photostory? Or do some kind of conversion of the video so you can play it in PPro and do the voiceover (such as Colin's method, and even leaving the type1 if it plays evenly), but use the wmv in encore. It is far from ideal, but a Photostory export (wmv, use settings for DVD) looked pretty good. (I don't actually remember whether I did the transcode in Encore or DVDIt.)
I would not do my own slideshow in Photostory with only wmv for export, but for the school musical I was doing, it was the Photostory slideshow done by the school for a DVD "bonus" or nothing.

IMPORT/EXPORT problem.

Hi,
I am using a import export statement in my program.
REPORT ZKATEST.
data : w_test type c value '1'.
data : w_test1 type c.
export w_test to memory id 'ZKAPIL'.
import w_test1 from memory id 'ZKAPIL'.
write : w_test1.
Here the value gets exported to memory, but while importing its not getting populated (w_test1 is blank).
Please suggest the solution.
Thanks
Kapil

Hi kapil,
1. This kind of problems happen
 because the variable name,
 for export
 and import are different.
2. While exporting,
 Under memory id ZKAPIL,
 Value of W_TEST is stored with the name W_TEST.
3. From the syntax,
 import w_test1 from memory id 'ZKAPIL'
 while importing, from memory id ZKAPIL,
 the sysetm will , by default,
 try to search the value stored under name W_TEST1.
(But it won't be found, because the orignal value is stored
under the name W_TEST and not W_TEST1)
4. So just modify the syntax with this, and it will work fine.
import W_TEST = w_test1 from memory id 'ZKAPIL'.
regards,
amit m.

Import/Export problems- Auto Resizing?

Among other things, I use Aperture to manage my iPhone wallpapers (It's convenient since I also have albums of vacation photos that sync to my phone through aperture.) When I download them, they are the correct size for the iPhone (320x480). When I import them, either by dragging and dropping or with the import tool, the metadata says the image is 320x480. Everything seems fine.
However, when looking at the wallpapers on my iPhone, everything is extremely pixelated. I wondered why, and then tried dragging one of the wallpapers from it's home in Aperture to my desktop, and it's somehow now 160x240. It's doing the same thing to my iPhone, making all the wallpapers pixelated.
So essentially, 320x480 picture goes into Aperture, Aperture registers it as being 320x480 in metadata, but then spits out a 160x240 version into Finder and on my iPhone.
Why is it doing this?

Because you're not using the actual photos:
and then tried dragging one of the wallpapers from it's home in Aperture to my desktop, and it's somehow now 160x240. It's doing the same thing to my iPhone, making all the wallpapers pixelated.
When you drag a photo to the desktop from the Aperture WIndow what you get is the Preview of the file, not the file.
It's doing the same thing to my iPhone, making all the wallpapers pixelated.
Are you syncing them via iTunes? That also only uses the Preview.
To get the actual file you'll need to export it (File -> Export) or use better quality Previews.

Portal Import/Export problems and questions

I recently tried to promote our dev stuff to the prod using both the exp/imp scripts (following the Imp/Exp whitepaper) and the built-in application export. The first time went without a hitch; however, after a few report updates in dev, I tried it again, and now I can't even get the Welcome page to appear. (Yes, I did import that page). The page finishes loading but nothing shows up on screen. I can login in to the change the DADs but nill to Portal. Any ideas how to even get in to see if the stuff imported?
Along those lines, after searching through these threads, and reading the documentation, I get the general feel that imp/exp are not at 100%. So what would be the procedure to do production promotions? Do I have to delete stuff (apps & pages) on the PROD server, and then import? If so what (apps?, security?, login server?) do I delete?
Rich

Thanks for the post Indira. Here are the answers to the questions.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>What version of the Oracle Portal are you using?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I am using Oracle Portal version 3.0.6.3.3
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Did you make any changes to the Welcome page when you imported it?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
No, I did not make any changes to the Welcome page when I imported it.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>When you say that the page comes up blank, did you check the HTML source to see if there is anything in there?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Yes, and there is something in there. Its the W3C tag and <HTML></HTML>. That's it. (more on this below)
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>What kind of portlets are in the page that you had imported?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I imported one application (with a combination of Reports, Forms, Dyn Pages, and LOV's), 7 pages with portlets based on all those components in tabbed interfaces on each page. For example, each page has 4 tabs with one portlet (running one of the reports) on each tab.
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Are you able to get to the pages that you imported, through the Navigator. Can you edit/customize the page?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Well this is funny, since I couldn't get to anything, I thought I was a goner since I couldn't log in to get to the main page and fix all this, not to mention to see if the app imported at all. So, I went to my DEV box, found out what the page_id was for the out-of-the-box default page, typed it into the URL and I got the Login link. I logged in and I can see that the app imported. I can also see the pages, but with no portlets. When I try to add portlets, I get USER DEFINED ERRORS galore. So I have to recreate the pages from scratch (not a very good thing to be doing in PROD)
<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>>Try creating another page in your new prod instance and making that your default home page. Please can you check if that is working.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
As I mentioned above, this is basically what I had to do. I did another promotion last night, and since the pages are what I thought the trouble was, I didn't import them. I just imported sso, sec, and the app. To my dismay, the same thing happened. I call portal home and I get a blank screen (empty HTML tags). So there I was, well into the night, creating pages in PROD so that we could have a site to show today.
Since someone else gave me the CD to install, I wasn't aware of the version I had and its bugs/issues. I have started the process of upgrading versions, but would like to get a solid idea of whats going with promotions before I do.
Thanks,
Rich

Import/Export problems after patching oracle from 9.2.0.1 to 9.2.0.5

Hi, After I applied the 5 patch to oracle 9201 on Win XP the export utility has started to complain about

ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
EXP-00024: Export views not installed, please notify your DBA

And after I applied catexp.sql script, it didn't fix the issue with export, the error message has become like this:

Can someone advise, what's wrong with it? With oracle 9.2.0.1 export worked fine, after upgrade to 9.2.0.5 it fails every time it gets to the table data export stage.
Thanks in advise

Azure storage import/export problem

I have sent a set of files up as part of an import job to our Azure Storage. These are fixed-size VHDs of Hyper-V virtual machines that we want to relocate to Azure. I followed all of the instructions correctly yet they are showing up as Block
Blobs and not Page Blobs so they are useless to us. What needs to be done to get them changed to Page Blobs? What am I doing wrong when getting the files added to the drive that is making them show up as block blobs? I was able to get this
to work a year ago for different VHDs on a different account, what do I need to do this time?

Hi Alouis,
Please make sure you are specifying the BlobType parameter while copying. This specifies the blob type for the destination blobs (values are:
BlockBlob and PageBlob. )
If no value is specified, the default is BlockBlob.

The BIG thread of how to handle import/export 2011-12-06

I have used Captivate since its birth!
There have always been some issues with import/export.
I am now using version 5.0.1.625 and still suffer from import/export problems. Actually those problems drive me crazy!
I want this community to rise and demand some changes when it comes to big scale usability.
First demand,
One should be able to export captions from several captivate files at the same time, There should be a possibility to "batch export" a whole folder with subfolders of files.
Second demand,
Use common standards and let us choose among standards, in this case I am talking about the XML that is almost right.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/871079
Who?, that works with translation companies uses word today? And even if one did, then there still should be a batch function to export everything at the same time.
Let us talk about the word "translation"... how come it exports the colour and style... we use both white and black captions which gives black and white text
Imagine white text on white background in word.
Please stand with me and demand an update of the import/export function or a batch tool, by writing a message to the captivate team here.
// Daniel

The proper place to ask for these things is in the Bug/Enhancement form that Adobe provides on this forum: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform&product=5
If you have a vision for how you'd like Captivate to work, that where you need to lay it all out.
...and a word to the wise...I would avoid the word "demand". It's not going to get you anywhere but could even backfire on you.

Import Export Utility not working on Windows Vista

Hi
I installed Oracle 10g XE on my brand new Windows Vista Business (SP1) machine 2 weeks ago. I then sucessfully imported an oracle export file which I had. I later installed Oracle Forms & Reports. However, today trying to use import or export gives me the following error:
On importing...
IMP-00058:
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
On exporting
EXP-00056:
EXP-00000: Export terminated unsuccessfully
I have tried everything... makinging sure my oracle home is set correctly in the PATH parameter, tried interactive import/export.
So when all else failed I installed 10g XE on a brand new Windows Vista PC that we have got just yesterday. Guess what.... straight after the install I get the exact same problem trying to use import/export! I then thought it must be a permission thing, there is only one user account on both PC's. This user is the Administrator, I have disabled all firewall, antivirus software but still no luck!
Please help..
Cheers

Unexpected Quits in multiple applications at Save or Import/Export window

Hello,
For several months I have Apple and Adobe applications as well as Firefox, randomly quit when bringing up the Save, or Import/Export window. (I have copies of the error logs.)
I thought I had it fixed since I haven't had any issues for some time after running Disk Utility and Onyx. But, I posted the same issue a couple of months ago and the solution (at the time) was to keep the desktop clean (see "Crashing at Save" by katorama) . So, after I cleaned up my desktop and only had two aliases to my folders I needed, all went very well until now.
However, what didn't help is that yesterday we had three power outages and my iMac did an auto-restart after each. Since then, the problem returned and nothing seems to fix it.
I feel like this issue is haunting me! I was a tech for many years and normally can fix the issue. But, I can't seem to figure out the reason behind these crazy unexpected quits. Seems I've run out of tools in my toolbag.
TROUBLESHOOTING ATTEMPTS:
– I have run Disk Utility to verify and repair disk and Onyx to clean out caches. After this, it seems to run fine, then a different application will have the same problem.
– When I create a new user account, there is no response when I double click the hard drive (it does not open) and when testing an application for the quit issue, it happens again.
– Also, when I restart into Safe Boot the problem appears to stop initially, but can appear intermittently again.
I suspect it may be a RAM or even a Quartz issue? But, honestly, I have no idea.
< h e l p ! >
Any suggestions welcome!
thanks!

This is about a question you posted to the Firefox Support forum three months ago (I'm sorry you never got an answer).

Export from iMovie to Windows Media .wmv

I have recorded some video with my camcorder. I successfully got the video from my camcorder into my G5 with iMovie. I edited it in iMovie and then chose the "Share" function to covert it to Windows Media (.wmv). iMovie will only conver the first two seconds of the video and then quit. I also have Quicktime Pro and have tried to "Share" the video output as a Quicktime Movie, which works perfectly, then tried to "Export" the movie from .mov to .wmv. Again, the finished .wmv is only two seconds long.
Why won't Quicktime Pro export to Windows Media format (.wmv) for only two seconds? Anyone else have this problem?
Mac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize that when I installed the free Flip4Mac plug in that it added the .WMV export function....but it only let's you export two seconds of video.
I just paid the $49 bucks to Flip4Mac to get it to work...and it now works. It would have been nice if Filp4Mac had somehow let me know that I had to upgrade to get that function....it was very frustrating trying to get this to work!

Problem of Data Import/Export after migration of Oracle DB 9i to 10g

We have encountered the following problem after the migration of Oracle DB 9i to 10g R1 and ESRI ArcSDE 8.3 to 9.1.
In our development server, a view was created by joining of one feature class (point feature), two attribute tables and one F table. We have to perform a process to export all the features in that particular view from the development server and then import them to the production server. In total, there should be about 60,000 points.
Form our past experience (using Oracle DB 9i and ESRI ArcSDE 8.3); we spent about 15-20 minutes to complete the import-export procedure. However, after the system migration, the speed of the import-export procedures is extremely slow, which is talking about 2 hours for ONLY EXPORTING 5MB data.
We would like to seek advice in solving the above problems. THANKS!

Try to delete old stats, then gather new stats on the schema and try the export again.

I am having problems importing some CDs into iTunes on a laptop with Windows 8. Most CDs import without problem. The ones I can't import can be imported into iTunes with Windows 7. Does anybody know why this problem is occurring?

I am having problems importing some CDs into iTunes on a laptop with Windows 8. Most CDs import without problem. The ones I can't import can be imported into iTunes with Windows 7. Does anybody know why this problem is occurring?

First-off, this seems to be a general problem with 10.4 (across all the operating systems of which I am aware). Unfortunately, I cannot provide a permanent solution but, if you need a quick fix, this will (hopefully) work for you.
For some inexplicable reason, iTunes no longer recognises standard Windows paths. For example:
Y:\Music\Buddy Holly\Buddy Holly - Rave On.mp3
The end result is that it will import a playlist with no content.
It will, however, recognise the equivalent Apple paths which look like this:
file://localhost/Y:/Buddy Holly/Buddy Holly - Rave On.mp3
It is possible to convert your existing playlists using a few basic replace commands in something like Notepad. In my case, I made some code changes in my music manager and now generate two sets of playslists (one standard and one to accommodate iTunes).
Forgive me foir stating the obvious but please remember to make sure that the disk / path containing your music is accessible when doing the import otherwise you will probably get a blank result. Note that you can do a bulk import by selecting all the (revised) playlists and dragging them onto the iTunes sidebar.
I am sorry that this is not a "clean" solution but it will work if you are in a bind. The only alternative of which I am aware is to wait for Apple to fix the problem.
