Advice needed on online streaming HD settings.

Hi dear Fellow Artists,
I need advice on how to streamline my video processing. I am an artist, with little experience in video coding.
I run IMovie 09 on snowLeopard, into most recent version of HandBrake to the most recent version of SlideShowDirector.
My need:
The most effective codec and settings to stream 1500 Kbps, 20-30fps, preferably 1280 by 720, (or approx 900 by 600 pix) m4v. files.
I currently use Handbrake to convert from h.264 to m4v and limit file size.
I run my site on SlideShowDirector which accepts H.264, but clips fail to stream fluidly even though my ISP provides 15Mbps download. Running Safari.
You can check my clips at http://www.aryenhart.com, perhaps you can see what I am doing wrong...
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Cordially,
Aryen

  • Advice needed on fast streaming/access from external HD (Video/Music apps)

    Hello,
    I'm a computer musician and have reached the max on my internal SATA drive, and thus I'm looking for an effective, extra-fast external HD capable of intense sample streaming (i.e. quickly accessing many small files from different parts of the drive at once). I'm not looking for write speed, as that does not concern me. The main concern is "read speed."
    In my search I came across this eSATA drive from segate which seems to have been designed with my needs in mind: http://www.creativemac.com/articles/...e.jsp?id=53423
    However, it takes PCI 2.2, while us dual G5 users only have PCI-X, correct? Does this mean this particular eSATA drive will not work in my system? Are there any eSATA drives/enclosures that were designed specifically for PCI-X? Is eSATA worth it when compared with FW800 in my line of work? (I already own a Lacie FW88 drive as a backup drive, but can switch its application if needed). What is the best technology for fast streaming/access from an external HD?
    I'm sorry if this topic has already been covered, but in my search I was unable to find any topics specifically regarding this type of use of an external HD.
    I thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

  • Advice needed on buying iphone as gift

    I went to apple store, they do not want to sell iphone to me unless I sign AT&T 2 years plan. I thought AT&T has locked the phone and users must subscribe in order to use it. Why Apple store still not allow me to buy?
    Please advice, if I want to buy online iphone for my brother, do I or my brother have obligation to sign out AT&T plan?
    One more advice needed, I found the shipment takes weeks, do I have option to arrange for self-collection?
    My brother birthday is coming soon, I need above advice urgently.
    Thank you very much

    I'm guessing English is not your first language. It's possible that you misunderstood them. Apple Store employees won't refuse to sell you an iPhone and you don't have to sign up for service in the store.
    Well that's not entirely true.
    Apple Stores have been instructed not to sell you an iPhone if any of the following is true:
    • You state that you will not be signing up with AT&T.
    • You do not have an ID from a US state, also indicating you will not be activating with AT&T
    • You do not have a credit card
    For example, I've seen US Apple Store managers refuse to sell iPhones to European residents because of the AT&T lock-in.

  • Both Chrome and Safari interrupt online streaming to request/demand an update for a PC program that doesn't work on Macs. What is going on?

    Both Chrome and Safari interrupt online streaming to request/demand an update for a PC program that doesn't work on Macs. What is going on?

    The update alerts are fake, and are intended to dupe you into installing malware or disclosing private information so that your identity can be stolen.
    You might get the alerts when visiting a website that has been hacked. Don't visit the site again. If applicable, notify the site administrator of the problem, but don't send email to an unknown party.
    If you get the alerts when visiting more than one well-known website, such as Google, YouTube, or Facebook, then they're almost certainly the result of an attack on your router that has caused you to get false results from looking up the addresses of Internet servers. Requests sent to those sites are redirected to a server controlled by the attacker. It's possible, but less likely, that the DNS server used by your ISP has been attacked, but you should assume that the router is at fault until proven otherwise.
    The router's documentation should tell you how to reset it to the factory default state. Usually there's a pinhole switch somewhere in the back. It may be labeled "RESET." Insert the end of a straightened paper clip or a similar tool and press the button inside for perhaps 15 seconds, or as long as the instructions specify.
    After resetting the router, quit the web browser and relaunch it while holding down the shift key. From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Do the equivalent if you use another browser. Open the Downloads folder and delete anything you don't recognize.
    Then go through the router's initial setup procedure. I can't be specific, because it's different for every model. The key points are these:
    1. Don't allow the router to be administered from the WAN (Internet) port, if it has that option. Most do.
    2. Set a strong password to protect the router's settings: at least ten random upper- and lower-case letters and digits. Don't use the default password or any other that could be guessed. Save the password in your keychain. Any password that you can remember is weak.
    3. If the router is wireless, or if you have a wireless access point on the network, use "WPA 2 Personal" security and set a different strong password to protect the network. If the router or access point doesn't support WPA 2, it's obsolete and must be replaced.
    During the time the router was compromised, you were redirected to bogus websites. If you ever connected to a secure site and got a warning from your browser that the identity of the server could not be verified, and you dismissed that warning in order to log in, assume that your credentials for the site have been stolen and that the attacker has control of the account. This warning also applies to all websites on which you saw the fake update alerts.
    Check the router manufacturer's website for a firmware update.
    If you downloaded and installed what you thought was a software update, ask for instructions.

  • Online Streaming services

    There are numerous online streaming services which make it possible to watch selected TV programs on my Apple computer.
    How can I view/transmit these programs to a HD TV:
    1. Can Apple TV be used for this purpose?
    2. If not, how should the computer be connected to the TV set? Via airport express?

    No, unless you have an ios device (iphone, ipod touch, ipad) and they have an app/enable support with the next update.
    To connect a computer to the TV you would have to do so via cables. Alternatively there are other streaming devices but you would have to research as to what fits your needs.

  • I just got my ipod 5 swapped with apple but i need my photo stream from my old ipod

    i dont have any of my photo stream on my computers and it already been turned on in my ipod but it says 0 photostream

    Hi mackdaddy,
    If you sign on your iCloud account to your iPod, and turn on Photo Stream, it should come up on your iPod. It may take a little time for it to download (you need to be on Wifi):
    Settings>iCloud - sign on with your iCloud ID and turn on Photo Stream.

  • You may need to configure the connection settings in the deployment descrip

    Hi All
    I am new to BPEL and going through Order Booking Tutorial (using 10.1.3.4 version of opmn ) .
    I have a problem in 'Designing the Database Adapter to Insert Data' Chapter.
    I have installed Oracle 10g Express Edition and BPEL Process Manager on my local system.
    In the Example it has been asked to create a daabase connection with Third Party JDBC Driver. Instead I have created a database connection with Oracle(JDBC) Driver.So i didnt have to register any third party driver.
    I cud access the Order/OrderItems table as well .
    I Deployed the same on the server.But while running the process I get following error--

  • Online Streaming Authentica​tion issues with Chrome

    I get caught in a never ending login loop when I try to authenticate with my Verizon ID for online streaming services such as stream.nbcsports.com/liveextra, stream.golfchannel.com, nflonline.nfl.com, etc.  Others have reported the same issue with showtime's online streaming service.  I have cookies enabled and I continue to get caught in login loops when I'm using Chrome.  I do not have the same issue with Internet explorer or Mozilla Firefox.  This has been reported before but it doesn't seem to be a high priority.  Please fix this issue ASAP.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Looks like its an issue with the built in "Pepper" Flash player in Chrome.  I disabled the built in Chrome flash player and enabled the system flash player and all my authentication issues have gone away on Chrome.  WatchESPN, NBC Sports Live Extra, Watch NFL Network all work now.
    Verizon...please work with Google on a permanent fix for this!!!
    To anyone else having authentication issues on Chrome... use this link to disable the pepper flash player: http://newtriks.com/2012/12/01/how-to-disable-the-​chrome-pepper-flash-player/
