Workflow from capture to publish

I am just starting in the world of Wedding and Event Videography. I love the excitement and emotion of weddings and feel privileged to be able to provide a record of the day. And I don't mind the long hours either. I am having trouble though with my project delivery. Viewing quality on DVD is not as good as I would expect - either pixelated or blurry. Looks fine in the camera and when viewing via the editor so I'm sure the problem lies in the project preset, interpretation/conversion, or the output preset.
I am shooting on a Canon HF G30, movie format: AVCHD, Recording Mode: 24 Mbps, frame rate: PF 29.97 (which manual says is progressive recorded as 59.94i), resolution at these settings is 1920x1080.
NLE is Adobe Premiere Elements 10. I have tried several project presets, tried interpretation options on source, and several options when sharing to DVD. None have provided a clear video when I ultimately burn to a DVD.
I am currently working on an event video (school Christmas program) which I am delivering on DVD to the parents.  I do not know if they have DVD players, or Blu-Ray players so I am assuming low-tech on the parent's end (DVD Standard).  So far the only thing I have been happy with is Project Preset: AVCHD Full HD 1080i 30 and output with Share\Disc\AVCHD preset H.264 1920x1080i NTSC Dolby, to a DVD which unfortunately will not play on a standard DVD player (only on a Blu-ray player).
Any insight to a proper workflow would be appreciated.

Valerie,
You are touching on a major dilemma for videographers.   The simple one media distribution method has disappeared with the prolification of HD TVs, Blu-Ray, YouTube, Vimeo and Facebook. 
The videographer that shot my granddaughters last performance solved it buy selling a cheap DVD.  I'm not sure, but when I looked at his camera it didn't even look like it could shoot HD.
An on line friend who lives and shoots in New York as a volunteer for school performances and amateur productions puts his very high quality work on Vimeo, then offers Blu-Ray disks and DVDs only when asked. 
I have no intention of making any money with video.  However, when I share my videos I usually do it on Vimeo.  My primary audience is limited to close friends and family.  Their dominate viewing habit is "streaming" with a Roku like device, so Vimeo works.  The few times I've given away disks I provide both formats.  From Amazon I bought "jewel cases" (plastic boxes) that hold two disks.  I buy printable DVDs and BD disks.  I print a nice title, a screen shot and clear marking as to what it is.  ("Play on a Blu-Ray Player" or "Play on a DVD Player".
If I was trying to make money I might put a short "trailer" on Vimeo or a Facebook page ending in a credit screen that has "Order you complete DVD or Blu-Ray from xxxxxxxx".
If your videos are less than about 25 minutes in length, you don't need a Blu-Ray burner or the expensive disks.  There is a unique format that makes Blu-Ray player compatible disks out of ordinary and cheap DVDs on ordinary DVD burners.  In Premier Elements look for the third choice under Publish&Share > Disk.  It should say "AVCHD".
Good luck!

  • Is i possible to trigger a workflow from the creation of an event in iCal

    Is i possible to trigger a workflow from the creation of an event in iCal
    Or is is possible to create a workflow to ad events to an iCal calendar which then triggers the workflow or is combined with the ad events workflow.
    Graeme

    Hmm, nope. Not that I'm aware of. Very few apps allow you to hook scripts directly to user activity. Finder* is a notable exception. iCal's "publish" feature has the ability to auto-update after user activity, but you'll either need dot mac accounts or your own webdav server to get that working.
    I'd re-consider the idea of triggering a periodic workflow with iCal. That way if the computer is shut down or asleep, iCal will wait to run the workflow at its next opportunity. You could hide the unsightly repeating events in a second calendar so they're out of the way.
    The next best thing is to write a faceless AppleScript application with a long-duration idle handler. The user would simply add it to their login items in System Preferences. This would also resume its cycle after sleep or shutdown.
    Yet another option is to write an AppleScript that can register itself in the crontab. This has the advantage of running at a predictable time. If you're careful, you can even set the script to wake up or power on the computer as necessary.
    * Folder action scripts can be triggered when files are created, moved, or deleted, but not when they're merely updated. This probably rules out much of iCal's activities in ~/library/application support/ical/.

  • How to export 2013 workflows from SPD 2013 to Visio?

    I have performed a number of searches and reviewed a number of published Microsoft articles and blog posts on Workflows and Visio and transfering workflows between these.  Curiously, though I have found plenty of Microsoft articles that discuss transfering
    2010 workflows between SPD and Visio, the only Microsoft articles I could find that relate to this topic discuss
    exporting from Visio to SPD only and not importing from SPD to Visio.  Given the apparant absence here, I'm wondering if Microsoft left out the capability of transfering 2013 workflows from SPD to Visio?

    Hi,
    You can import the SPD workflow to Visio 2013 Premium.  Please refer to the article.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj900126(v=office.15).aspx
    Export a workflow to Visio
    Once you have created or edited a workflow in SharePoint Designer 2013, you can export the workflow as a Visio drawing that can be opened in Visio Professional 2013. The ability to export a workflow back to Visio after it has been edited in SharePoint Designer—also
    known as "round-tripping"—enables deeper collaboration between business users and workflow designers. When you iterate the workflow design in this way, you can use Visio to define the business requirements and then use round-tripping to coordinate
    and approve changes.
    Note
    Visio Professional 2013 does not support steps. Step information that has been added in SharePoint Designer may be lost when the workflow is viewed in Visio and then re-imported into
    SharePoint Designer.
    To export a workflow, do the following:
    In SharePoint Designer 2013, click Workflows in the Navigation pane.
    On the Workflow tab, in the Manage group, click Export to Visio.
    In the Export Workflow to Visio Drawing dialog box, name the file, select a location, and then click Save. The exported file is saved as a .vwi file that can be opened
    directly in Visio Premium 2013.

  • Calling a workflow from Extended Controller

    Hi,
    I want to call a workflow from an extended controller, I wrote the following code:

    processReturn(pageContext, webBean, am);
    String srNo = "";

    String status = null;
    OracleCallableStatement cs =

    but it seems that the second line (processReturn(pageContext, webBean, am)) is not being executed...
    Any suggestions ?

    Now,how is it possible to capture the value of Requisition Line ID in iProcurement, or even better the record of >po_requisition_lines_all from my extended Controller (xxCheckoutDistsCO) ?In your page check if any VO has "Requisition Line ID" as its attribute. Then you can get it using
    vo.getCurrentRow().getAttribute("Attribute_name");
    Or
    Check in seeded CO, you may find some code which is used to get "Requisition Line ID"

  • How call procedure or package from Oracle BI Publisher 10.1.3.2.1

    Hi Gurus,
    I need to call a procedure or package from Oracle BI Publisher 10.1.3.2.1 by passing parameters, I do it because it would be easier to fill a table as the report that asks for is too complex (8 breaks, 5 dblinks, 20 tables, etc).
    I'm not using the Oracle XML. Review include the following solutions:
    Re: Stored procedures and dynamic columns
    Re: Is it possible to use Stored Procedures in BI Publisher GUI?

    But none of them useful for me was the level of complexity.

  • Issue Transporting Business workflow from one System to Another

    Hi All,
    As there are many limitations in Import/Export of Workflow I'm going for a Transport of Workflow from one sytem to another.
    There are some query's reagrding transporting of the Business Workflow through Transport Request.
    1)   How can get the Transport Request no. of the Workflow to be transported? (As there are no direct versions displayed from  menu).
    2)   If there are any dependent objects first how to find the dependent objects lof workflow like if  any data element, Domain, Table, Structure (if these objects are used in your WF definition or may be BOR method), Function module, function group BOR, Rule, WF template, task and Task assignment  ?
    3) How to get Transport Request no. of such dependent objects specifically The Task,Rule , WF template etc.?
    4) I have object Type ZBUS2081 related to it how can i get its TR ?
    Please describe as I'm new to workflow.
    Please identify if there can be some issues after transporting workflow .
    Regards,
    Ujjwal

    Hi Ujjwal,
    Please find the below hint's.
    1. Regarding the objects included in the Transport request check the Tables - E070*.
    2. For dependent objects, you should check the workflow template. You have to check all the Task's and in the task go to
       utilities ---> Object directory entry --> Lock overview . Here you can see the request. It will show you the current request for    the Task.
    3. To get the TR for Business object, Go to basic data ---> Transport data --> Here you can see the Request ID for the business object.
    Thanks,
    Viji.

  • "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" I mean....what would you do? Is it safe to click yes....(Don Don Don...*sound effect*)..please help...

    Okay everybody...so I'm on the struggle bus so I'm going from Photoshop cs6 off my old broken laptop to trying to dwn Photoshop Cs2...either way I love PS. Now when I tried downloading it for free from Adobe...succeeded...but when I went to the download folder to install it, it said "Do you want to allow the following program from an unknown publisher to make changes to this computer?" I mean....what would you do? Is it safe to click yes....(Don Don Don...*sound effect*)..please help...

    If you already have a license for photoshop cs6, why do you want photoshop cs2?
    You can just install photoshop cs6 on your new computer provided both operating systems are the same kind (both mac or both windows)
    If you don't have an install dvd for cs6, you can download photoshop cs6 from here and use your serial:

  • Request to run updater.exe from an unknown publisher starting firefox

    every time Firefox is started from initial turn on of computer (not from the computer being hibernated or in sleep mode), I receive a message to run Updater.exe from an Unknown Publisher. There is nothing to show that this is a Firefox application but, I am not receiving any threat messages either. Is there any way to find out where this Updater is coming from and if it is to be trusted?

    Do you use a Norton security suite? If so, I suggest checking with Norton's support on whether that prompt is legitimate.
    You will find numerous unofficial distributors advertising on Google for Firefox downloads. These generally are bundles of crap along with Firefox. You should check to make sure you don't have such a thing installed.
    Open the Windows '''Control Panel''', Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help surface undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    You can supplement your regular security software with the '''scanning/cleaning tools''' listed in our support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]. These on-demand scanners are free and take considerable time to run. If they finish quickly and especially if they require payment, you may have a serious infection. I suggest the specialized forums listed in the article in that case.
    Does that help?

  • Starting Workflow from Generic Object Services

    Hi All.
    We are on ECC6. In transaction MM02 when I excute 'Start Workflow' from Generic Object Services, no workflows are found. Can anyone help me with the following issues;
    1. What is the underlying object in transaction MM02 (I believe it is BUS1001006)
    2. How can i ensure that the proper workflows in this transcation are started through some  
        customisation, enhencement or user-exit.
    Regards.

    I think you have to maintain the Workflow Template as General Task and then only it will appear in the GOS.

  • Call workflow from ABAP program

    TASK = TASK
    IMPORTING
    WI_ID = WI_ID
    TABLES
    AGENTS = AGENTS

    It is calling the workflow and subrc is 0, but not passing the value to the workflow. Because of that the method is not working, any idea?

  • Setting Workflow status not working in imported workflow from SPD to Visual Studio

    Hi all,
    I have created SPD workflow and imported in visual studio. When I deploy imported Workflow using visual studio feature I found that Setting Workflow Status action is not working. Do I need to change Set Workflow status activity in Visual studio to make it
    work.
    Rohit Pasrija

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that Setting Workflow status did not work in imported workflow from SharePoint Designer to Visual Studio.
    I try to reproduce the issue and the result is the same as yours.
    After I import the workflow, choose the .xoml file, the view is as below:
    To troubleshooting the issue, I add a new item to the project and select “Sequential Workflow” in the template.
    After I click the Tool, I find that there don’t have the “SetCustomWorkflowStatus1” activity.
    To set the status of the state, we need to use the “Set State” Activity in the “SharePoint Workflow” toolbar.
    That is the reason why the “SetCustomWorkflowStatus1” activity does no work.
    More information:
    Apply Custom Values to Visual Studio Workflow Statuses

      EXPORTING
        task                  =

    *   CONTAINER             =
    *   MESSAGE_LINES         =
        attachment_list       =
    A workflow can also be triggered by and event which is in turn triggered by a program.
