What would be the best video editing and photo editing software to use for an iMac for advanced users?

My first exposure to video and photo editing is on a PC with Adobe Premier and Adobe Photoshop.  I own a Macbook Air and have used iMovie and iPhoto.  It took me a few years to sort and organize thousands of photos archived and videos.  Now, with the changes in Final Cut Pro and the loss of the opening, I am, even once, sitting on the fence.  Compatibility between the software has always been a controversial issue and that you accumulate more and more files, it would be nice if Apple should keep in mind to develop software that can be upgraded seamlessly without losing or change any data.  For example, the photo is correct, once you become familiar with it. However, personally, I like the way events were created in iPhoto, but also how you can scrub through each event, just sweep a finger of each event.  Now in the Photos, you need to scroll right rows and rows of pictures, which seems to be a step backward when it comes down to the speed and convenience. I finally have the time to go back to my hobby of video editing and I was about to buy an iMac or a Macbook Pro.  What is the best choice for video and photo editing, or should I be looking back to Adobe?

  • What would be the best type of table/chart to use?

    I'm testing a grid tie inverter. To the side of the grid, I need to provide a table/chart, which has:

    X axis: fixed, from 00:00 (midnight) and ending at 23:59

    Y axis: last watts measurment purchase / sale

    The table/graph must be emptied at midnight every night

    Measurements are performed at intervals of 10 seconds.

    This program will be running continuously for long periods of time (months in a row)

    I'm leaning towards a xy chart because the program can be started and stopped at any time and it's the only way I can think of to make sure that the line of measurnents correctly on the X axis.

    But I'm afraid that, since all XY graph is held in RAM (each line has its own displacement register) and measurment taken at intervals of 10 seconds.

    Who's going to add up quickly as the days go by finally out of memory and crash.

    Also I can not know how to delete the chart every day to avoid said memory leak.

    To make matters worse I need also a same table/chart for the release of load, batteries and solar panels.

    Here is my grid purchase sub - vi that I call after each action is taken and a message of State output and graphics for the main program.

    I would follow the advice of Lynn and manage each day of data as a separate table of data.  So do not grow a value of several days of data in a single table.  Move to another storage such as file system and clear the table and start again at midnight.

    But I think what they XY graph is the best display for all the reasons you listed as discontinuous data.

    Yes I'm still with the XY graph as we are still in the first part of the development lifecycle and it is possible that the device could be stopped and started several times during the day and I don't want the graphics to get all out of whack.

    But looking at my sub - vi, it occurred to me to treat it as an engine of the action or functional global and put an initialization state it I can call at midnight to clear the shift registers.

    For what is to come back a day or more, maybe it's something that I have work later. Daily data are saved locally in a separate file and using the XLR8 tool I'll roll seven daily files in a weekly Excel workbook for later analysis.

  • What would be the best approach to store the contents of an application

    Hi all,

    Whereas there are certain restrictions on the University Complutense of MADRID since the limit of files in a folder (max. 1000), that would be the best approach to store the contents of a request, for example? Is it possible to store the content with a logic of separation?

    Kind regards

    Maybe that I miss the question, but I think you are looking for a good definition of the metadata model or same good architecture of content server instances themselves.

    You wrote that you have lots of files from one application (1200 check-ins per day) and you are limited by the recommendation to have maximum 1000 files in a folder. It is a bit of a mix of apples and oranges. Records are a logical representation of file storage, who must somehow match what users a) are used for b) is useful to organizational processes. If it makes no sense in the context of your organization - just don't use them. At the University Complutense of MADRID, he must be. Unlike, the University Complutense of MADRID must always have a metadata model, and if the content search is one of your typical use cases, it is a starting point.

    You mentioned you want to separate an application an application documents X documents Y - that sounds like you have a metadata field called, for example, 'Application', which will contain the appropriate value. Unfortunately, you write more detail, so I'll make my scripts:

    -Imagine you have users who work areas or countries interested only in 'their' data - sounds like a need for one or more fields to represent this type of separation (country - State - City - whatever)
    -now, you might have another group of users who are more focused on the product; They also want to see 'their' data, but this time, the main search criteria are different (product line - product - Version - Batch, etc..)

    At the University Complutense of MADRID, you can serve both groups - you can create research and recording of profiles that meet the needs of these two types of users. It's actually more convenient than using the folders because you can have multiple views on the same repository.

    It is a "but" to this approach and that's if you want to use Desktop Integration after the check in documents from Office applications (Word, Excel). In this case, you will need records.

    However, even, there is a solution that might help: note that, so far, I expect to have a single repository (a single instance of the University Complutense of MADRID) serving all your applications. In theory, you could have a few instances UCM running in the same environment (the same number of licenses CPU, if you want). Therefore, the main criterion will be the name of the server instance of content rather than a metadata field. Another thing to consider if you want your "desktop users" for access to "all files" in the repository. Note that even if you use folders you can have files that are not assigned to any folder.

  • What would be the best output settings for rendering of a master file of a finished project?

    Hello. I'm working on a project in Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2015.

    I want to export a master file of the completed project and I'm not sure which.settings (format, codec, bit rate, etc. to the choice).

    Ideally, I would want the file to be:

    -lossless codec

    -better image quality

    -wide range of different platforms and software compatibility

    -Scalable in function using a codec and a format that will most likely be available for years to come

    Please advise on what you consider to be the best option for the foregoing.

    The research I've done so far, I read that. Format MOV, Cineform codec is good. That would be my best option, or are there others you would recommend?

    Thank you!

    You will get several answers.  I think you need to take a step back and look at your complete plumbing.  What are the formats you filming and editing to?  Take a look at Smart rendering in the body.

    Smart rendering in Premiere Pro

    Smart Rendering in Premiere Pro CS6 (6.0.1 and later), & first Pro CC

    Made smart codecs using will save time.  I shoot with Canon, which captures in native mode to XF (which is Sony XDcam 422 50mbit) encapsulated in MXF.  My plumbing complete rest in this format.  Only parts of the video that involve a scale/FX are re-renderings.  Straight cuts are just copied.  Little or no loss of resolution so long as I control back out the exact format.  I converted / transcode all other formats from other sources to the same, before importing and editing.  Everyone I deal with can open and work my forms because of the enveloping MXF.  Others similarly using Cineform, etc..

  • What would be the best way to change the color of a part of this picture? (image attached)

    I am on XP using PS CS4.

    Please see the picture below. I would like to change the color of the shirt/deck of this lady, and I was wondering what the best way is to do it. I know that if I try to change the color, white bowls change color as well. In the past, I've isolated parts of images using paths, but I wanted to know if it was the most effective way. Maybe the masking is the answer. I just wanted to hear from the pros

    Untitled-4.jpg

    Thank you.

    I'm not pro, but you can isolate areas likely to be affected by the change of color. Try the quick selection tool (which detects the edges) with mask edge/refine refine to refine the selection.

  • What would be the best notebook/Tablet for Photoshop CS4 or Photoshop Elements 10

    When we travel, I love working with my photos to create pages of hardback hard as we will.  I wanted a notebook/tablet that I can use a stylis pen to mark my selections, but have no idea where to start.  I need a fairly powerful computer because some of my projects are getting quite large.   Size is not so much a problem unless someone recommends the new Dell that is a little too small.  This one is just too small and my eyesight is not what it was.   Any suggestions would be welcome.  We already have a laptop, but I really want something that I can draw on the tablet to make my many selections of layer.    I'm not an expert when it comes to hardware.  I use the 10 elements and CS4 on my 64 bit Windows 7 computer and use them both but would probably be only 10 items of charge on any new device that I buy.  It's just easier and for what I do, it's the best solution.

    I had a Wacom tablet, I used with my PC and he really likes her.  I would have rather had an image on the Tablet I could shoot autour... and even if one of those that exist, this is the way out of my price range.   I'm looking for is a larger version of the Dell Inspiron Duo (1090) 10.1 "1366/768 touch screen tablet that can display.    It is easy to switch from a normal touch screen mode by tilting the screen.   However, this one has a screen that is just too small for me to use and the keyboard is way to small for my big hands.  I know that I can call Dell and see what they recommend, but I thought some photoshop users had already encountered this and may well have an answer.

    Regarding the iPad, I have one of those and it's great for applications, but not at all to play with photoshop or one of my other graphics software.  I use it to pick up my mail on wi - fi sites while we are on cruises where it doesn't cost an arm and a leg for the use of the connection.   The price of a cup of coffee usually gets us enough time to download all of our mail and then his head turned.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer.
