VideoStudio :: Batch Relinking To Be Used
Jul 21, 2013
VS6 Pro Ultimate..I started a project a week or so ago nothing fancy just some photos overlaid onto a video with a sound track, I saved it as a project, opened it today only to face relinking all the photos some 150 of them! The folder that you place all your photos showed they were not linked so I relinked them, then I opened the project only to find most of the photos were not linked!
1: Is there a batch relinking I can use?
2: What would cause this issue? ( I've never had this before)
3: How do I prevent it happening again?

I have created dvds using multiple .vsp files. I am now unable to open these projects. It seems like I have to relink the projects .vsp files. I can see that the file size as if the project includes .vsp files but when I go to "share", "create dvd" nothing is there.

My PC crashed and has two projects that I had completed a significant amount of work on. The the video files and vsp files are stored on Edrive and music on Ddrive. I had also created some painting creator files and am not sure where they will have been saved? Rather than try to reinstall windows and reformat the C drive I have decided to upgrade to a new PC. I could then remove the 2 slave drives from the old pc and use hard drive housings and a usb connection to link them to the new pc (don't feel confident enough to install them directly into the new one). I am concerned that the drives will then have different names and the vsp file will not recognise the files resulting in days of lost work. I notice that there is a function called relink but am not sure how this works and whether I will be able to use it to recover all of the edits easily.
The new PC will be intel i7 with nvidia gtx 570 graphics card, I have also ordered PROx4 ultimate so would prefer to use this.
The options as I see them are:
1. Reinstall windows and persevere with the old PC assuming that the slave drives are intact.
2. Remove the slave drives and connect through USB then try and rename the drive to the same as before (e and d)
3. Remove the drives and connect through USB, let the new pc allocate a name to them and use the relink function?

I made a complex video clip from .avi files with Corel Videostudio Pro X3, I saved the project then moved my original files to different folder. After some time I decided I want to edit my video again and re-linked the files successfully but now when I try to play my project in edit mode it doesn't play smoothly, it stops and delays. I can't edit in such conditions because I can't preview my work... Before moving my files everything was fine. No changes were made to my computer...

I have been using Indesign CC for a month or two now and for some reason it just started crashing when I try and relink a file in a publication I'm working on. It has worked fine up until this point. I have already tried reinstalling the program and I've even tried dragging/dropping the links instead of relinking through the LINKS box.

I have received a project edited on PPro 7.1.0 with a number of Canon C300 spanned clips. I have PPro 7.2.1. When I relink the clips the spanned clips link incorrectly. In fact all the span clips have incorrect timecode. The original editor on PPro 7.1.0 brought in the span clips as individual clips with sequential timecode. When I import the clips they come in as clips all of the same length but the time code is way off eg a clip that should start at 01:01:31:17 starts at 01:17:18:18. This is really less than satisfactory and the fact that we need to hand this project back and forth is really going to make life very difficult. Adobe and Canon need to sort this span clip thing out.

I have a series of folders and I have linked art and the files they are linked to all mixed up in these folders. My file structure is as such;
myFilesHH01000-01999HH01000-HH01099HH001001.PDF
and now I need to change the file structure to this;
myFilesHHHH01000-01999HH01000-HH01099HH001001.PDF
adding the folder HH breaks the links.
What is the best way to identify the broken link and change its path with JSX?

I have a project that was created entirely with still images (almost 200,000) shot with a Canon 5D. I converted the CR2 (RAW) to jpegs and edited the project in Final Cut Pro using those jpegs. I then used Automatic Duck to send the FCP project to After Effects where I used the Batch n Replace script from [URL] to replace the jpegs with the CR2 files for color correction. The problem I'm running into is the script creates a new project where the CR2 files have replaced the jpegs, however everything is offline. The images for each sequence are sorted into folders so I go to the first image in a folder and tell AE to replace it with the proper file. AE thinks for a bit and finds and replaces all of the other images in that folder. Depending on how many images are in a particular folder, it can take anywhere from 5 minutes to several hours for AE to finish. It took over 4 hours for AE to relink a project with 10 shots/images sequences containing over 12,000 images.
All of the AE project files are shared via Dropbox with the other Mac Pro in my studio. I opened one of the projects on the other computer and tried to relink to the CR2 files on my RAID over the network but I had to do each image one by one. Is there a way to relink the files over the network the same way as if they were on my own computer?

Is it possible to automatically relink based on file type? I have hundreds of illustrator files that need three images in each changed out for a updated versions. It just so happens that the three all have different file extensions.
It seems that there should be a way to have illustrator replace the one .jpg file with another .jpg file (named differently) that's in the same location as the old file. Is there some type of more powerful scripting interface for illustrator besides the actions? vbscripting or something?
I realize that this isn't a normally supported feature of the links panel. I know that I can open each file and manually relink them as I open them. Hoping to save some time. I have to do this a couple times a year as we get in fresh images that we want to stuff into the same presentation format.
The file names contain timestamps that need to remain there so simply renaming the new files to match the old ones isn't an option either.

I am using VS Pro X2. There is a problem with batch conversion. When I export the videos individually using "share", I get a good quality output, but when I export the same video using "batch convert", the quality degrades, for example the title gets blurry. I am using the exact same output setting in both situations:
MPEG-4 Files
24 bits, 640 x 480, 30 fps
Frame-based
MPEG-4 SP Video: 2000 Kbps
44100 Hz, 16 Bit, Stereo
MPEG AAC Audio: 128 Kbps

I am creating a video that has maybe 30 short clips. Because of the setting where they were shot, they all need a brightness and contrast adjustment. Is there any way to do a batch adjustment and avoid going thru the process on each one?
I am using VS Pro X4

I recently tried to convert a 76 minute movie in mpeg 4 to mpeg 2 using the batch convert function. I first went into options and set the bit rate to 6100 kbps and the audio to Dolby 2 ch. stereo, with the bit rate set to constant. After the conversion had taken place, I found the results were excellent, except that only 38 minutes were converted. I tried it again, but still only 38 minutes and then it it finishes. Why won't it convert the full 76 minutes? The destination folder is on my "D" drive which is 1 TB, so there is lots of room.

If I have multiple project files (.VSP) with different properties, can I batch process the individual files to their own respectful files? That is, if A.vsp is a HD edited video file, B.vsp is a SD file, C.vsp is a SD with different bit rate and screen ratio, etc, can I batch render all the files while they keep their respective properties (Same As First Video Clip)?

From several .vsp-projects to output/convert/encode/render single video files (Videodatei erstellen) in Batch with one film template (Filmvorlage)
DVD authoring was yesterday - today is streamed from the NAS to the TV. So I now render video projects (.vsp) in VideoStudio as individual files (Videodatei erstellen). With Full HD 50p projects which lasts a few minutes and I can not cut in this time. With several hundred clips from vacation it sucks.
Hence my request for a new batch function for the encoder of VideoStudio: Several .vsp-files to be issued in Batch with a self-defined film original/template (Filmvorlage).

My question is, does Videostudio X5 have the capabilities to either:
A) Batch convert while using one or more of the FX
B) Export multiple clips in one go from the timeline?
I have 120+ short video clips that I need to crop to a different size. I've figured out how to crop them to the size I need by using the "Croping" function in the FX. There seems to be no way however to apply this to all the clips at once in the Batch Convert.
The only way I can do it is to import all of the individual clips to the timeline and then export them individually...one at a time....taking a lot of my time. I notice they all retain their same file names in the timeline. Isn't there a way I can select all of them at once and export them with their individual file names all in one go (with any FX I've added)?

the batch conversion tool can't handle long file names as generated by the Windows Live Photo Gallery import tool. I was shocked (dismayed?) to see that my brand new X5 doesn't import DV as nicely as this free MS tool (as an aside). Here is an example filename: "Tape05 2001-01-02 14.05.33.avi". It stumbles on the first '.' it finds. Luckily it does not overwrite files that end up having the same name because of this truncation but still. Come on now. Path manipulation is junior engineer programming 101.
The batch convert also does not remember the target directory last used. At least default it to the source directory, right?Unlikely to be fixed, I know, but maybe it'll go on the list for X6.

I would like to take my many photos and videos and be able to batch edit a folder's worth at a time after they have been added to my timeline. I have several that have the same lighting problems and that would save me allot of time.

I edit an mp4 video and produce a new mp4 video. If I produce the new mp4 while I open the project, the screen size is normal. (c_not_use_batch.jpg) If I produce the new file using batch convert, the screen size is reduced (c_use_batch.jpg) However, the setting for producing the files are the same (c_setting.jpg)
The files and settings are the same. The only difference is using batch convert or not.
This happens to Video Studio Pro X3 and X5.

So I have an action that I've been using for the past couple years (?) now that involves opening an image, applying an auto color and auto levels, saving and closing. This has been working for me since probably a couple years ago when I made the action. Yesterday, I was working on a scanning project where I have groups of images in separate folders. I ran the action on the first 2 folders which went fine.
When I got to the 3rd folder all the way up to the last one, PS just loads all the images, does the levels and color then fails to save/close them when done. On one of my folders, it gets through a few of them when it drops the ball and just opens all of them. I'm not sure what's going on as there's no real explanation as to why this is happening.. especially when I've been using this action (and I even made a new action with still no luck). Last week I had about 300 images I had to work with and PS decided to pull this move on me after doing the first 30 of them fine...which is when I first noticed this happening.
To further add, I set my action to show everything step by step and it seems to happen with select images (in some cases, these select images are entirely what is in the folder). With the select images, it is not doing the actions entirely in order. Typically it does it in this manner:
1-Levels
2-Levels
3-Save
4-Close
What I'm now experiencing is this:
2-Levels
1-Levels
(Skips 3 and 4 since it is starting at 2 and working upward).

I'm a professional photographer and starting to get a handle on photoshop but I don't learn well from books.
I want to put my copyright on the bottom of my proofs and doing it one at a time is taking to long. I know there is a batch thing but I dont know how to use it.

I have fallen off the learning curve and can't get up! I just bought a new Nikon D70s and have moved the .jpg's to a directory. I want to convert all of them to .tif files to work on, while keeping the original .jpg files intact for archiving. I do not want to make any other modifications to the files at this time. I know how to do them one at a time but I know there is an easier way.

We are possibly going to start shooting volume HDR images. Time will be a factor when shooting 4 locations a day and still having to process. Is there a way to stack the images at the end of the job like an action, then when I get back to the studio, I can tweak the images?

I have about 2300 .eps files that I need to convert to .jpg so they can be used in an online store.
All of the eps files need to be resized to a maximum of 700px wide, coverted to an rgb colorspace, and 72dpi and then saved as a .jpg file
I have been trying to use the actions pallet to record the actions and then run a batch action but to no avail. I have adobe PS CS4.
Below are screenshots of what i have tried to setup. (After this I have about the same amount of .TIFF files that also need converted.)

I am having trouble converting .psd files to .jp2s. When I make the action, in the "save as" box I have to first pick the JPEG 2000 format, then manually change the extension from .jpf to .jp2. The problem is that when I set everything up, the files save with the extension .jpf, because that is the default extension for JPEG 2000, and my manual change is ignored in the replaying of the action.

I created a nice action to work on 2 (currently loaded) images in combination.
Now I would need support on how to apply this existing and successful action in a AUTOMATE/BATCH process on a folder full of files. So instead of just loading 1 (one) picture at a time and applying the action within a standard batch to a single picture - I would need that photoshop loads 2 (TWO) images from my source folder at the same time - applies the action-batch - and then continues to load the next 2 pictures, then the next 2 etc....

I'm trying to run a simple batch command that works fine in an old CS2 I happen to have but in CS4 every action I create and every stock one from the list returns the message "could not complete the batch command because the disk is not available". Not even actions that don't require saving to a disk work.

I'm working with a designer, how to do an urgent batch rename. I'm the project manager rather than a designer so, I don't have the design tools to experiment myself and it's rather urgent. This is the issue:
We have 300+ images. There's a one-digit difference between the low res file names and the high res, color-managed files the designer needs to relink on Monday. In every case, there's a 0 missing before an underscore - so Day Two_0012 has become Day Two_012. This is an easy fix in the file-renaming software I use but I'm in a different city and it's much simpler if the designer, who uses Adobe Creative Suite, does it at her end.
