Maximum song size

Bonjourno,
I want to start putting uncompressed copies of music onto my ipod. I seem to remember reading somewhere that if a file size is over a certain size then the ipod must read the info directly from the hard drive, reducing battery life.
Does anyone know how large the file size could be.
thank you

The memory cache is about 32 MB big (on B / W and color iPods... the minutes are different because one supports photos for slide shows, and one doesn't. You shouldn't have to worry about what size your song file is because when the song (let's say... it's 50 MB) reaches about 30 MB, the hard drive will spin again and load the rest of it on there... so it'll end up being a strait-through song (not gaps). It's just your hard drive will have to spin every song or every 1/2 a song (depending on file size). I use 256 kbps MP3, and it has to refill the cache every 4 songs or so (vs. every 7 or 8). But it'll only drain an extra 30 minutes out of the battery... no biggy (it's got 14 - 15 hours anyway). You'll get about 12 - 14 hours of music on your iPod with unompressed format (w/ backlight and all that other crap off). So, with that stuff on, I'll say you'll get about 11, maybe 12 hours.... lots of time, put it that way.

  • Is there a maximum song size for iPods?

    It took me a while to work this out, but it seems the iPod Shuffle has a limit to the length of audio files it can play.
    Due to the pause between tracks, I have encoded a few albums as one 96kbps AAC file per album, which is OK for shorter albums. With the longer ones, though, after maybe 40 minutes or so, the iPod Shuffle starts crackling and stuttering. It seems like after a certain track length or filesize, it can't keep up any more.
    Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone know if it affects the iPod Nano or regular iPod too, or is it just due to the simplified design of the Shuffle in particular?
    512MB iPod Shuffle

    I tried that a long time ago, then took the Shuffle back to the Apple store and got it exchanged for another one. Seeing as the second one has the exact same problem, it looks like something that all iPod Shuffles have (or at least the first batches of 512MB versions made early last year).
    Maybe I should experiment a bit more. I suspect the audiobooks you mention would be much lower bitrates and mono. That would suggest it's probably a limitation due to the filesize in bytes rather than the length of the file in seconds.

  • Maximum file size for itunes

    I want to know the maximum number of sings how many songs I can store in my itunes so may I ask if anyone can inform me if there's a maximum file size limit for itunes? Many thanks.

    There is a guy with 170,000 songs. There may be even bigger libraries out there.

  • Ipod 4G - maximum song length??

    I have a 4th generation 40GB Ipod, with plenty of space available. I transferred a song to my Ipod and it won't play, I think because it is too long. When I try, the Ipod locks up and must be rebooted. This same audio file plays just fine in Itunes, so I don't think the file itself is faulty.
    Question: how long is the maximum song length, or file size, for use on my Ipod?
    [This 'song' is fifty nine hours long. Actually, it is an audiobook. If you want to know what book, other than "War & Peace", could possibly be that long, check the NY Times fiction best seller list for 10/10/05 - it is #1. This audiobook was ripped from 48 CD's and is just over 3GB in size.]

    I have 48 separate files, each from one CD. I joined these files into one large file with MediaJoin. I know I could use each file separately, or perhaps assemble them into roughly four files of about twelve CD's each, twelve files of about four CD's each, or some other combination, but for ease of use and ease of locating my audiobooks, I prefer to have as few files as possible.
    In order to save the trial and error time it would take me to figure this out by myself, surely someone must already know the answer of how long a song, or large a files, I can play on my Ipod.
    This one 3G, 54 houre long, file plays without any problems whatsoever on my home computer in Itunes.
    What do you think?

    Don't know why, but the "maximum heap size: 267380736 bytes" value is just slightly less than 256*1024*1024, wheras the reported initial size is equal to that.
    Try setting the initial value to 255MB.

  • How to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?

    hi All
    That's great when using SQL Dev.
    But I also have a trouble that how to change font size, maximum column size in the result screen ?
    My users think that font in result screen is shown very small, and whenever the data in each colum is long then it's not shown full data in column, they must double click for extend the size. Have the option to default the max size for showing full data in each column ? I try but still not to do that .
    Appreciate for anyone to help us.
    Thanks all.
    Sigmasvn

    You can't change the font for the results screen yet, however you will be able to select an auto-fit option for selected columns, so if some columns have slitghtly wider text you'll be able to set the column widths to handle these wider columns.
    Also, there s the option of switching the layout of a record in the grid.

  • What is an idea of maximum file size for a film in Captivate?

    Hi there,
    I'm creating an elearning course in Captivate 7, and it is being published as HTML5. This means the films I've imported are being converted to MP4s, and they are around 10-20mb in size once they've converted. They seem very slow to load on some computers - do you think the file size is too big? Or could it be another issue? Does anyone have a recommendation for maximum file size for films? They are 572 x 322px and around 1-2 mins in length.
    Thanks in advance

    Probably better guidelines that dictates 'size' of a vi are:
    typically no more than 1 video screen in size
    is it legible
    and is it's function and operation clear.
    I have seen examples of '1 vi does it all' that were many screens wide and tall, totally a flustercuck, and nearly 1 MB in size.
    Globals and local variables (except for LV2 style) are typcially shunned for they can create a host of problems (race conditions, indeterminant data).
    Use connector pane to wire controls and indicators to. Then use wires between vi's to transfer data. I tend to use clusters to hold shared data.

  • Maximum file-size for HR EIC emails

    Hi folks
    We currently use EIC in ERP, and have an issue with sending large emails/attachments as the maximum file-size appears to be only 2MB. This is set in the IMG activity Employee Interaction Center (EIC) -> Interaction Center Web-Client -> Communication Channels ->E-Mail -> Define E-Mail Profiles, the attachment maximum size is set to a maximum of 2,147,483 bytes.
    I have tried searching for anyone else having a similar problem, but haven't found anything. I would imagine many customers would have EIC users in a Shared Services environment sending attachments over 2 meg; so before we log a call with SAP, has anyone else had this issue and how did you resolve it?
    Thanks very much.
    James

    The maximum value is 2,147,483 bytes, which is what the config is set to. This seems pretty low, especially in this day and age.

  • Maximum font size for auto-sized form text

    You need to let the user select a maximum font size for automatically sized text. If most of your fields are set at 10pt type, but you have one field for which you want the text to resize automatically, it looks stupid if that cell contains a small amount of text that’s set at 16pt or whatever. If you could set the maximum font size to 10pt for that field, then the text would be consistent with the text in the other fields unless there is so much text that it needs to scale down.

    Can anyone please advise?
    Cheers

  • Set maximum panel size

    Hi,
    I would like to know how can I set the maximum panel size, in order

    when I open it, it don't pass the size I want for that panel.
    How Can I do It? I can set the minimum panel size, in File->Vi
    properties->Window size but I can't set the maximum panel size?
    Thanks,
    ToNi.

    Hi,
    From my vi, before I call another vi from it, I have a FP Open and FP.
    State property set to True and 4 (Minimized) respectively and then I
    use a Run Vi invoke node and finally, after it, I have another FP.
    State property set to 1 (Standard). My front panel  when opens has
    the same size as I saved it but LV not redraws it well. How Can I do to
    solve this kind of problem? I have this problem since a lot of time ago.

  • What is the maximum file size for CSV that Excel can open ? (Excel 2013 64bit)

    Hello,
    Before anyone jumps in, I am not talking about the maximum worksheet size of 1048576 rows by 16384 columns.
    I have  client whom has a 1.5 Gb CSV file, 1.9, 2.6, 5, 17 and 89 Gb file (Huge).
    If I open the 1.5 Gb, the file opens (After waiting 5 minutes) and then a warning pops up that only the first 1048576 rows have loaded. That is fair enough.
    If I try and open any of the others, Excel comes up to a blank worksheet. No errors. It just seems to ignore the file I tried to open. This happens from within Excel (File - open) or from double clicking the file in explorer.
    Excel goes to this blank page almost imeadiatly. It does not even try to open the file.
    If I try with Ms Access, I get a size warning and it refuses to load the file. (At least I get a warning)
    I would have expected Excel to load at least the first 1048576 rows  (If that is what there are in the file), and give an error.
    The computer is more than capable (Xeon processors, 16 Gb ram, SSD hard disks top of the line HP Z820 power workstation).
    With the 1.5 Gb file loaded to 1048576 rows, it uses 15% ram/pagefile. CPU's hit about 5%.
    I have confirmed it is Win 7 64bit, Excel 64bit. I am fairly confident we are over the file size but without an error message, I don't know what to tell my client whom is looking to me for answers.
    I have already discussed that the 89gb file in Excel is unreasonable and they are looking at a stat's package but I need an answer on these smaller files.
    Anyone got any ides ?

    Hi,
    The 1,048,576 rows & 16,384 columns is the
    workbook size limitation in Excel 2013. Thus, I recommend we try the Mr. Bernie's suggestions to import the large CSV file.
    1. Use VBA to read the file line by line and split/examine the import file in sections. If you have further question about the VBA, please post your question to the MSDN forum for Excel
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
    2. Use Excel 2013 add-ins. Power Pivot and Power Query. For more detailed information, please see the below articles:

  • Important conceptual question about Application Module, Maximum Pool Size

    Hello everyone,
    We have a critical question about the Application Module default settings (taking the DB connections from a DataSource)
    I know that on the Web it is generally suggested that each request must end with either a commit or rollback when executing PL/SQL blocks "directly" on the DB without the framework BC/ViewObject/Entity service intervention.
    Now, for some reasons, we started to develop our applications with thinking that each Web Session would reference exactly one DB session (opened by any instance taken from the AM pool) for the whole duration of the session, so that the changes made by each Web session to its DB session would never interfere with the changes made by "other" Web Sessions to "other" DB sessions .
    In other words, because of that convincement we often implemented sort of "transactions" that open and close (with either commit or rollback) each DB session not in/after a single HTTP request, but during many HTTP Requests.
    As a concrete example think of this scenario:
    1. the user presses the "Insert" button. An HTTP request is fired. The action listener is executed and ends up with inserting rows in a table via a PL SQL block (not via the ViewObjects API).
    2. no commit or rollback after the above PL/SQL block is done yet.
    3. finally the user presses a "Commit" or "Rollback" button, firing the call to the appropriate AM methos.
    Those three requests consist of what I called "transaction".
    From the documentation it's clear that there is no guarantee that the couple AM istance + DB session is the same during all the requests.
    This means that, during step 2, it's possible that another user might reference the same "pending" AM/DbSession for his needs and "steal" somehow the work done via PL/SQL after step 1. (This happens because sessions taken by the pool are always rolled back by default.)
    Now my question is:
    Suppose we set the "Maximum Pool Size" parameter to very a great number (always inferior to the maximum number of concurrent users):
    Is there any guarantee that all the requests will be isolated in that case?
    I hope the problem is clear.
    Let me know if you want more details.

    Thanks for the answers.
    If I am right, from all your answers about resource avaiability, this means that even supposing the framework is able to always give us the same AM instance back from the AM pool (by following the session-affinity criterias), there is, however, no "connection affinity" with the connections from the DataSource. This means that the "same AM instance" might take the "a new DB connection", if necessary, from the connection pool of the DataSource. If that happens, that could give us the same problems as taking "a new AM instance" (that is, not following session-affinity) from the beginning, since each time an a new connection is taken (either via a new AM instance or via the same AM instance plus a new DB connection), the corresponding DB session is rolle back by default, clearing all the pending transactions we might have performed before with direct PL/SQL calls bypassing the AM services during the life cycle of our application, so that the new HTTP request will have a clean DB session to start to work with.

  • Export-csv output maximum row size

    Hi all. May I know the maximum row size that can output to .csv using 'export-csv'??

    There's no limit on writing to a CSV file.
    You can try:
    # max rows to export to CSV:
    $i=0
    While ($true) { #Forever
    $i++
    $i
    "Some text" | Export-Csv -Path .\test12.csv -Append -NoTypeInformation
    until you run out of disk space, which may take a while. A million lines using the above script makes a 5 BM file..
    Now reading it back is an entirely different story. Try
    Delimit..

  • Maximum Artboard Size (Not Canvas Size)

    Hi,
    I read that maximum canvas size is 227in but Illustrator CC on both mac and windows and several different computer does not allow me to exceed 120in x 120 in. I can change my artboard size manually (shift+o) and drag the corners to 227inches but the number on the right upper corner is stuck on 120 inches. So what is the maximum size that I can work in Illustrator? If it is 227in why can't I make an Artboard bigger than 120 inches? And to avoid more confusion what is the canvas and what is the art board?
    Thank you

    mus,
    When things become seriously weird, as in your case, it may be worth trying the list (you have been through 1) and 2) already, and I would suggest your skipping 3) and 5), which leaves 4) and 6).
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you may find the folder here:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/kb/preference-file-location-illustrator.html
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall (ticking the box to delete the preferences), run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
