    How are you expecting to distribute it?
    iDVD encoding settings:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
    Short version:
    Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
    Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
    Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
    That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
    Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned abo
    In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
    You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
    Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
    NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
    And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

  • Choppy video on big screens  PLEASE HELP!

    I've noticed that the videos that I have exported from CS3 are very smooth when played on a computer screen and average size tv screen, but are very choppy if played on a large TV or projected on the wall.  Is there a way to remedy this?  Please help!

    I think I figured out the issue.  Thanks for all your advice.  I'll repost if I have any other problems.

    Drew,
    How is the large-screen projector connected, via a set-top DVD player to it, or by a computer connected to it? If it's via a set-top player, is it the same one used for the small-screen TV, or a different one? What is the make and model of the set-top player(s)?
    Also, what DVD media was used, and what was the burn speed used to create the DVD? Was this authored in Encore, or with some other authoring application?
    Good luck,

    I just wanted to follow this up by saying that you were entirely correct in your diagnosis of the situation.  My computer did have the faulty part you linked to.  I brought my laptop in and specifically told them to run that test, had it fail and then argued with the person at the genius bar and the manager.  Eventually they offered to have it sent out and have everything replaced for free of charge.  They did so mainly because I had complained about graphical issues almost every other time I had come in with problems and no one ran the test.  They should have caught this problem during my warranty, but they didn't, even though I mentioned the problem.
    Anyhow, after having the part replaced, I haven't had my computer crash a single time since, or had many of the issues mentioned above.  I've never had this experience before.  Even brand new, I got occasional crashes.  Hopefully this new trend continues.
    I do find that web browsing is still incredibly slow.  Web browsers just chug along at a slow pace, even though I have great internet speed.  Maybe I'll try just deleting my web browsers and reinstalling them...
    Anyhow, thank you for your help and knowledge Clinton.

  • Cue Point Navigation

    I will preface this all by saying I am very new to the whole
    idea of using code for anything (I have problems programming my
    watering system at home and it's got buttons) and I could sure use
    some help from people in the know.
    I'm working on an FLA that has 7 talking head videos
    w/PowerPoint slides as pngs from a medical conference.
    I'm trying to get slides to synchronize with embedded
    navigation cue points in the video. All the code I entered so far
    was based on the Adobe article "Controlling Flash video with
    FLVPlayback programming-Cue point event handling" and I used the
    code example provided. When I exported the movie all I get is a
    flickering flv icon on the screen and the following error message:
    line 1 1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time
    constant: MetadataEvent.
    Attach Code
    function cuePointHandler(event:MetadataEvent):void
    trace("name = "+event.info.name);
    trace("time = "+event.info.time);
    // Go to a frame label with the cue point name
    gotoAndStop(event.info.name);
    flvControl.addEventListener(MetadataEvent.CUE_POINT,
    cuePointHandler)

    before the function add the following line:

  • After Effects video cue point data error #1107

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to create a personalised video using the techniques described here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/atv_personalized_video.html
    I have created the video and tracking data in After Effects (CS5), converted the tracking data to Flash cue points and exported the .flv file. I can import the video into Flash (CS6) just fine and I can see all the cue point data however when I try to compile the Flash project, bearing in mind this is just an empty stage with an instance of FLVPlayback on it, I get the following errors:
    VerifyError: Error #1107: The ABC data is corrupt, attempt to read out of bounds.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable Icon is not defined.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable FLVPlayback is not defined.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable Main is not defined.
    If I export the .flv without the cue point data I can import, compile and play the video without error.
    I've had a look around and I've not really been able to find any information about this issue and don't have a clue where to start with it.
    Any ideas?!

    Here is the script I used to export the markers as valid XML for Flash to import. Please note that this will export all markers from all layers so if, as I did, you have multiple 'versions' of your tracking data on different layers it will export the whole lot.
    var comp = app.project.activeItem;

  • Cue Point in FLV Help

    I have a progresive flv with an instance name of myVid which
    is already on the stage and set to autoplay via the component

    the flv to pause. The cue point names (embedded when I used Flash
    Video Encoder) are cp01, cp02, and cp03. The video doens't stop on
    the specified cue point and instead just keeps playing. Can anyone
    help me with my code? Is there a better way to do it? Here is what

  • Best way to control graphics synchronized to video cue points

    Hello,
    I've recently completed (well, 'completed' is a strong word)
    a phase one implementation of a synchronized video presentation
    using After Effects and Flash. The basic idea driving the
    synchronization of cue points to motion graphics revolves around
    creating a listener in the following fashion:
    var listenerObject:Object = new Object();
    listenerObject.cuePoint = function(eventObject:Object):Void {
    // Put any code you like here
    trace(&quot;Cue point name: &quot; +
    eventObject.info.name);
    my_FLVPlybk.addEventListener(&quot;cuePoint&quot;,
    listenerObject);
    and then using the cue point name to play a variety of
    movieclips at the appropriate time in the presentation.
    The video presentation had four sections, each of which could
    be arbitratrily browsed to at any point in the presentation, so it
    was important that the the movieclips did not need to play in order
    and that they could be interrupted at any point without an visual
    confusion.
    I dealt with this two ways (I am sure these are not the best
    ways, which is why I am writing this post):
    First, every single movieclip was already on the stage from
    the outset, stopped on the first frame, with the alpha property set
    to 0 (based on Aran Balkan
    http://aralbalkan.com/444).
    The final frame of each clip had a gotoAndStop(1) action on it so
    that when a clip finished playing it 'reset' itself. I also wrote a
    &quot;rewind&quot; function which pretty much did the same
    thing whenever a user clicked on one of the navigational tabs.
    For a first iteration, this worked pretty well, and it
    impressed enough people in my organization (university) that now
    the President wants to deliver a similar message. It seemed prudent
    at this point to ask a general question about best practices in
    this area. I am working with the full Master Collection suite, and
    can target later versions of the Flash Player (I believe I can use
    AS 3.0, although I will have to learn it). One thing that I am
    hoping any pointers you guys might have will cover is this:
    How do you handle starting/stopping/pausing of the video and
    also make sure any currently playing graphical assets also
    start/stop/pause on cue? I was thinking of setting a variable on
    the second frame of each movieclip, something along the lines of
    'nowPlaying = this;' and then resetting that to null at the end of
    the clip and in the rewind function, then using that variable to
    control the currently playing clip (would have to bu just one, I
    imagine).
    But there has got to be a better way. I have some down time
    to do research and to experiment, but it is going to be very high
    profile when it rolls around, so I thought I'd send out some
    feelers.
    Has anyone done anything like this? Seen a better way? Etc .
    Thanks so much.

    Best practice is to keep one single file as long as humanly possible.
    In this case, you "branched" a version for another format; I'd suggest you don't edit that any further (apart from the formatting stuff you mentioned), but inform your client this version is to be worked on. Work on your "real" version until it's really really done, and only then make other versions.
    It's a different story (no pun intended) if the transition between the two versions can be automated; that way you'd still only work on the 'real' version, but then you could generate the other with every edit you make -- you should still not be doing any work in the dumbed-down version.

  • Control slide advance via video cue points

    Hi Folks I would like to have a video clip control the advance of an external slideshow by using cue points set in the video. Idealy I would have 2 swfs (video.swf and slides.swf) embeded in a web page side by side and as the video reaches a certain cuepoints it advances the slides in the slideshow swf. It would also be good to fullscreen either one or the other as required.
    Any help appreciated.
    Dave.

    Hi Folks I would like to have a video clip control the advance of an external slideshow by using cue points set in the video.
    The videos do not need to be live streamed and can be prepared with keyframes at the key positions for slide advance
    So is it keyframes or cuepoints? I didn`t say sth. of Livestream either.
    Streaming means simply the process where a video can already start even if its not already completely loaded. This is consideres not only good but standard practice nowadays.
    Embedding videos on the timeline is a bad idea. Using Keyframes in this case is an even worse idea.

  • Flash video - Cue Points

    I've just added some external FLV playback in a project that I am currently completing.
    I've currently set my navigation button (next_btn) set to invisible when the page loads (forcing the user to watch the video).
    Can I set a cue point in the video to change the state of the next button (i.e. next_btn._visible = true;) ?

    you don't need a cuepoint to detect the end of your video.  use:

    next_btn._visible=true;

  • I am getting the "Original File Cannot Be Found" error with 4000 exclamation points.  Please help...

    To start from the beginning I originally kept my iTunes library on my internal hard drive.  However, it was getting large and I needed to move it so I moved it to an external drive.  Then I recently upgraded my internal hard drive to a 1 TB hard drive so that I would have plenty of space for everything.  I then moved my iTunes library to the new drive, or so I thought.  It is all technically there.  (As you can see from the bottom screen shot.)  However, for some reason iTunes is looking in the trash for a good portion of my library.  (I have 4400+ songs and 4000+ of them are showing the exclamation point and this error.)  I know that I must have done all of the moving around incorrectly.  (I followed directions from some blog I googled, big mistake.)  Now I just want to get my library how it should be.  All back together on this new internal drive with no dups etc.
    I have over 4000 songs giving me this error.  I can go in one by one on each song and find it in the iTunes Media folder.  But I certainly don't want to do it that way.  Here is the info on where the song(s) seem to be currently:

    Hi JJuniper,
    When tracks in iTunes display a it means the file cannot be located; it may have been moved or deleted. For this issue, we will need to refer to the following article:
    iTunes: Finding lost media and downloads
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1408
    Alternatively, if your media was downloaded from the iTunes Store, you may be able to download it again free of charge. You'll want to first delete the tracks from your list in iTunes, then access the purchased page:
