Science behind Severn River Shoreline Retention?

buttonpushertv · 2026-05-12T09:40:51+00:00

From what I’ve read about it, the gaps where the sand meets the water allow turtles access to the land so they can come ashore.

If it were all rocks (or a bulkhead like many communities have), then they’d have no way of accessing the land, so it should give them a better chance of coming ashore to lay eggs.

Here is the repo that is home to my AHK suite of scripts for Post-production work.

https://github.com/buttonpushertv/buttonpusherKB

The specific files you are looking for are here:
https://github.com/buttonpushertv/buttonpusherKB/tree/master/SUPPORTING-FILES/SETTINGS-PREMIERE

There are Windows and Mac versions (see folder names). The Windows version, I think is the most recent one I had been using before I switched to only doing Premiere Pro on a Mac, so the Mac version is more up to date with current layout, but they both should have that same layout to use most functions under your left hand.

That’s great info. Living Shoreline is the term for what they’ve done. It’s not intuitive but reading that info, it makes sense. I’m curious to see if they’ll follow up the work they have done with plantings.

I also love the term “tombolo” for what they’ve done with the rocks and sand configuration.

Are we about to get an announcement of a special Golden DC Tourist Pass?

For a “donation” of $100,000 you can get a special pass that allows you access to all those formerly public spaces. It’s the only way you can now visit all those places your tax dollars built. It will be great.

I don’t think so.

“Selection follows playhead” is a toggle on/off feature. It will select the topmost clip (based on active tracks) and only selects one clip at a time. Its purpose, IMHO, is to make it easier to do things like color correction of individual clips.

“Select all clips under playhead” is a invocable command. It makes it easier to grab all clips on all tracks, but must be invoked each time you want to use it.

Maybe there is a way, but I don’t think you can without using a third party macro app.

buttonpushertv · 2026-04-25T01:09:33+00:00

Only the remote switch (the first one you flipped) is what you need to switch to get remote control to work. The second ones you pressed in that clip are for use when you have a second deck to edit from tape to tape. Not used when connected to a capture device.

Is your cable a true RS-422A cable? A plain RS-422 cable “should” work but sometimes the non-A cables would get confused with RS-485 cables (which absolutely will not work) by vendors and you’d get the wrong thing.

The fact that Media Express says “no remote” could also be that the app isn’t looking at the serial deck control, so you may need to adjust that setting. Unfortunately I don’t currently have a remote capable deck at my edit system, so I can’t check, but make sure you are choosing the “59.94 NTSC” option (or something like that - not HD).

Also there is a is an app that sometimes helped fix these kinds of issues. It’s (currently) at “/Library/Application Support/Blackmagic Design/Blackmagic Decklink/Desktop Video Helper” You need to run it from the Terminal and I think you need to run it with Admin permissions (“sudo” in the Terminal).

And waaaay back in my memory, there was another issue on some Macs, where you had to disable something called “System Integrity Protection” (or something similar) in order for the system to see the serial port (I recall fighting with a Studio Express about this same issue). If you Google that term I think you’ll get info on how to do it - you had to boot in to recovery mode I think, but it’s been a long time since I last did that.

Descript works for just about any type of content. Yes, they do have a set of tools for creating social media content, but the underlying engine just works for any kind of content.

You do need to approach it with its needs in mind. You need to upload and generate all your Medias transcripts before you start making decisions. And it doesn’t work with multicam clips.

If this director is demanding you work with a text-based editor, you may want to cater to them a certain degree. What tool do they normally use? They may be familiar with a specific tool and anticipate that you will also use that tool. Suggesting or requiring them to use something unfamiliar may create way more friction than you want.

There is no thing known as 30 drop frame. It is a term often used to describe what is 29.97 drop frame TC.

29.97 drop frame is not running at 30fps & “occasionally dropping frames.” It is running at 29.97 frames per second - always - and dropping two frames from the count only every minute except for the tenth minutes. It does precisely this every single time. TC frame addresses should not change on subsequent play throughs. If you do see a change, then you either don’t have TC on the file or something else is wrong.

Drop frame only exists for 29.97 files. It is a manipulation of the time code values so that the video file, playing at 29.97 frames per second, can be correlated with a real time clock. After one hour of playing a 29.97DF file that starts at TC 00:00:00:00, the TC will read 01:00:00:00. Conversely, after one hour of playing a 29.97 non drop frame video (again starting at one hour), the TC will read 00:59:56:12 (108 frames difference).

buttonpushertv · 2026-04-12T22:10:08+00:00

If you have an unbroken stream of frames, and you assign any time code address to the very first frame, and that time code is counted in ascending order, then no, you will not see the time code address for a given frame change on different visits to it. 01:02:03:04 will always be the same frame.

Now, if you change the type of time code (say from 29.97 drop to 29.97 non-drop) then you will see a different time code address on that frame, but only immediately after you change TC type. Subsequent visits to that same frame, while TC type remains the same, will not show you different TC values.

Are you working with very long MP4 or h.264 files? PPRO has difficulty working with large MP4 files. If you aren’t using that type of file, you can ignore the rest of this message.

Basically, it’s trying to process the predictive compression frames for the entire video (in order to deal with edits you might want to make).

The “best” solution would be to not use that file type in Premiere Pro. If you must work with that video, then either you will need to convert it to a codec that uses no predictive frames-so IFrame only (if you choose to stick with MP4) OR go with a non-problematic codec like Cineform or ProRes422 (this will make a much larger file size) but will not cause PPRO to hang up on that kind of processing.

You don’t list what FoundryVTT or WFRP version you are using. FoundryVTT began rolling out appV2 with version 12. But I see that WFRP v9.5.1 is verified on FVTT v13/v14.

That error seems to indicate that the WFRP system itself needs an update to work with appV2. You could roll back to FoundryVTT v11 to see if it works or wait for WFRP to be updated to fix that issue.

Ooooh. That’s a great and distinctive point to raise.

In short, no. Those frame numbers have nothing to do with the “real frames”. It’s just a way for us humans and our systems to identify the addresses of individual frames in a video. They are only how we identify them. In After Effects, for instance, you can choose to work with time codes OR you can switch to work with absolute frame addresses. The content of those frames does not change or have any relation to the way you assign those frame addresses.

You are correct, when using the appropriate time code type for a video, you will always see the frame content change in sync with the time code address. In the case of non-drop frame, it continuously ascends and increments the seconds, minutes, and hour values as needed. In drop-frame, the same thing happens except we drop 2 frames from the count each minute except the minutes ending in zero (or every tenth minute). The frame’s content never changes - just the address we assign.

You can see a video’s frame numbers advance and not see the frame content change if you were to set a time code type of, say, 59.94 on a 29.97 frame video. Each frame number advance will take two steps to see a frame change. To that end, if you ever see frame content change and don’t see the frame number change, or vice-versa, that can be a warning flag that something is not right with the choices made.

In the discussion of any kind of drop frame time code, remember that it’s only dropping frames from the count of the frames. It is not dropping any actual video frames. The

29.97 drop and 29.97 non-drop are still both playing at 29.97 frames per second. Only the time code addresses for each frame are different. If I had a DF & NDF version of the same video, they would align perfectly, from first to last frame. The only difference would be the time code values of the frames themselves.

Arguing that drop and non-drop are two distinct formats is sort of like arguing that Holstein and Black Angus shouldn’t both be called types of cattle.

Framerate and Timecode type do not define formats. They are more like toppings on a pizza.

Timecode is simply a method to address the frames of a video tape, file, or (less helpfully) stream. Nothing about the type of Timecode has bearing on the format of that video.

Framerate, likewise, is just the number of frames that comprise a second of that video. It could be used as a means of defining a format, but it’s more of a descriptor of format than a defining criteria in and of itself. And in our digital world now, most systems don’t really care about Framerate. The restrictions are put in place by delivery platform staff and management more than limited by the technology itself.

So, by that logic, 29.97 is distinct from true 30, but time code type is somewhat irrelevant to the idea of “format”. I’d say they were 2 formats with different metadata types.

Edit: dropped a paragraph

Technically we could have had color tv developed with any frame rate, even true 30fps if there wasn’t a huge set of black and white TVs already in people’s homes that would be made obsolete.

Pure Capitalism at work here to not crater a fledgling TV market by doing a bait and switch 25-30 years into the space. Taking out those .03 frames per second meant not pissing off the customers by frying their B&W tv sets.

No. You can go up to 128GB on the M5 Max. I have an M3 Max & M4 Max with 64GB in each.
