4:3 and 16:9 mix onto one Adobe Encore DVD

Using Adobe Encore DVD, I have made a 4:3 and 16:9 mix of movie timelines and menus on one DVD.
Encore previews the mix of 4:3 and 16:9 movies/menus in the one project correctly.
The dvd disc I made plays 4:3 and letterbox 16:9 on my 4:3 TV correctly.
The dvd disc I made plays 4:3 and 16:9 in InterVideo DVD on my computer OK.
Why when I take the disc to the shop to view on a widescreen monitor does it not show each aspect ratio correctly. I hope it is just a setting there but we tried many settings on the DVD player and on the monitor. When 4:3 played correctly, 16:9 did not and vica versa.
Is it me or the shop?

Thanks, freddo

We were just stuggling with this for some time, and eventually discovered that we were not properly using Encore.
We had two videos: one as 4:3, the other as 16:9.
We created a menu, brought the videos into the timeline, linked everything properly, but would not get the expected results.
We eventually learned that we were supposed to create TWO timelines; one for the 4:3, and one for the 16:9.
Hope this can save someone some time.

Incorporating both Arch Linux and a package repository onto one DVD.

Dear Arch Linux community,
I would like to tell you a little background information about myself before I start to talk about my actual subject. I know that this part of my message does not belong here, but it is my own ritual to do it like this in my first message in every community. I hope I can make friends with people here and try not to harm this community in any way. Thank you for reading this.
I am a 16-year-old male student from Finland and addicted to GNU/Linux and freeware / open source software. My previous experience with GNU/Linux is fairly large; from thin client Debian GNU/Linux administrator to kernel hacker and software developer. My delight is music, particularly writing and composing my own music tracks which vary from classic chiptunes to acid trance and dance beats. Arch Linux seems to be a great GNU/Linux operating system for me, because I am looking for a GNU/Linux distribution that does not focus on desktop, but rather on simplicity and lightweight solutions. I also do not fear "bleeding edge" software which is a positive point for Arch Linux compared to Debian GNU/Linux. As you can probably notice I have been using Debian GNU/Linux before I considered Arch Linux. However now I am here hoping for a totally new experience from Arch Linux.
Enough with my foreword, I would like to now go back to the actual subject. Usually I use DVD media for GNU/Linux images to have both the installer for the GNU/Linux distribution and the main package repository to make installations faster and to have the possibility for an offline installation. As I see, Arch Linux provides only CD images which are approximately 160MB in size, making me to think about incorporating Arch Linux's "Core" and "Extra" package repositories to fill up the remaining 4GB on the DVD. If the "Core" package repository is already included in the Arch Linux CD image, please forgive my lack of information as this is the first time I have ever entered to the world of Arch Linux.
My question is as follows: Is it possible to incorporate Arch Linux and a package repository onto one DVD while retaining the ability to install Arch Linux from that DVD? If positive, how should I go on to do it?
Thank you in advance!

No niin, tervetuloa arch-mailmaan.
Ok, I better stop at one sentence before someone gets mad at me :roll:.
To answer your question, yes. It is quite possible to put something like that together, heck I think someone suggested we should distribute those some time, but we decided not to (don't quote me, I'm too lazy to read the archives right now) since in most cases pacman will get the job done will job done with less bandwidth waste, and distributing huge snapshots isn't really too conducive to the whole rolling-release thing.
You might want to check out archiso [1], the install scripts [2], and one of my sample archiso configurations [3] that effectively creates an install CD. Now, keep in mind that archiso isn't the *current* way installers are created, but I think it's much more straightforward to work with than what we're using right now. That said, we currently use archboot to create the CDs, so that may be worth taking a look at as well. There is also a really old installer remastering wiki article [4], though not terribly relevant, you could still use a similar technique to pull apart one of our recent install iso's and remaster it with whatever packages you want. Anyhow, if you'd like help with this, I'd be more than happy to give you a hand (I need some more test-cases for archiso...), or if you look at it and go "gee, this is dumb", don't be afraid to send patches. Just get in touch with me through email, jabber, irc, or whatever.
Good luck

I have 3 consecutive movie clips that I am trying to drop into the drop zone but it only recognizes the first one and only produces the firts one in a DVD. How can I drop all three movie clips into one drop zone

On IDVD, I have 3 consecutive movie clips that I am trying to drop into the drop zone to create a DVD but it only recognizes the first one I dropped and only produced the first one in a DVD. How can I drop all three movie clips into one drop zone.

I have had some luck doing the following: Export each clip from imovie as a quicktime clip. Open iDVD and create a new project. Import a few stills into iDVD and then click on the button that gets created to get into the screen where the individual slides appear. Drag each quicktime into that screen and arrange in the order you want. You can then delete the stills. The button that appeared when you dropped in the stills will launch a complete show.

Fit 3 hours of low-quality video on to one 4.7 DVD ?

I am using Encore DVD 2.0. I have 206 minutes of low-quality video I'd like to fit onto one 4.7G DVD. I would much rather sacrifice quality to get it all on one disc. The source files are mpeg-2 totaling 8 GB. Setting the transcode settings to Automatic and building the disc, I get the error that the resulting bitrate would be below Encore's 2 mbps minimum so the build fails.
Strangely, though, in two different projects now, if I keep trying to build, restarting Encore, etc, it will eventually transcode and build anyway, but I have no idea what I did to make it work.
Using a bitrate calculator with 2 channels of 192kbps dolby digital audio and 206 mins of video, it says an average bitrate of 2.5 should work.
Also, I see in the Transcode presets window that the bitrate can be set as low as 1.5. Encore help also says 2.0 is the minimum.
Also, what does the "Quality" slider under Basic Settings mean? Is that a bitrate setting or something else?
Any insights?? Thanks!!

You do have an option, but the quality cannot be guaranteed.
Create a DVD9 folder instead of a DVD5 disc.
Find & download a copy of DVDShrink.
Load the folder into this, and reduce to fit on a DVD5 - if the bitrate can be sufficiently lowered.

Still no Internet and/or File Support in Adobe Encore ?!?

Hi... just wondering if Adobe still hasn´t added Link or File Support.
I do help myself with Sonic EDVD - but since it must have its own program to use for their Actions for pointing to files i don´t like the way.
I know that other softwares do easily add Weblinks like Apple Studio Pro.
Isn´t Adobe thinking of adding that Web/File options as well?!?
Or am i wrong that normal DVD-Content don´t think of pointing to HTML Links or stuff like that???
The more movies DVDs i watched the more web links i saw and i guess none of that were done with Adobe Encore DVD which is really a pity in my opinion as it´s really a easy to use program.
Still i encountered a lot of encoding problems and i only solved it with trying to reencode it several times and then try to build the project. No real mistakes can be seen in the Assets Files i used though.

>The more movies DVDs i watched the more web links i saw and i guess none of that were done with Adobe Encore DVD which is really a pity in my opinion as it´s really a easy to use program.
How do you know that?
I have a few friends in the business who use nothing but EncoreDVD in tandem with Sonic's eDVD - and since they dropped the price to what it is from the original $800, it's more and more commonplace.
The apple implementation is, IMSHO, like all apple stuff - a fudge on top of a bodge.
Sonic invented this way of working, and eDVD4 is the best yet.
For getting this licensed into Encore (Which is the way it would have to work) send in a feature request - but bear in mind it will increase the selling price of the program. This, I suspect, is why it has been left out so far as not everyone wants or needs this functionality.
I admit that I would dearly love to see it included, but for every feature that we want - others will want a cheaper price point over new features. Sadly, you cannot please everyone.
But please do send in the request, as the more people ask for it the greater the chances of it happening are.

Copy and Paste audio track MIX from one track to another??

Hi
What's the best way to handle this.
I have a video with one long music track, that I mixed using Adobe Premiere's Audio Mixer.
The musician made a new version of the track with some very slight modifications in the music.
Rather than having to remix the entire new track, I would prefer to either:
1) Copy and paste the attributes of the orginal audio track onto the new music track -- retaining the Mix I did from the original mix. Is this possible? I tried it once and it did not seem to work. (I used the Mixer, not keyframes, to do all of the mix.)
or
2) Is there a setting in Premiere's Audio mixer to "gang" the new track to the old one -- with the new track cloning the old track's mix.
Or would it be better to bring the two audio tracks into Soundbooth and do it there?
Thanks,
...Rowby

Thanks Colin
I did a complicated mix on one long background music track and was not looking forward to doing that remix because of various minor music changes made by the musician scattered throughout that long track.
Your Alt (for replace solution) worked perfectly and saved me a ton of time.
The fact that Copy attributes for Audio doesn't work for copying audio keyframes is another reason do do audio mixes using the Mixer instead of using keyframes to adjust volume.
...Rowby
P.S. And a big LIKE to Adobe's clever programmers for including features like these.

I have two apple accounts, with two separate iCloud accounts, both with information I need on my iPhone and mac. One email is no longer valid therefore I can't varify it via emial. How do I get info onto my phone or onto one account?

I have two different email accounts/IDs because one of my account email's is no longer valid, therefore I am unable to verify it via the varification email. I can not use my current email/apple ID to change it to becuase it is set as my backup on the first account. So frustrating because I am now paying for two seperate iclouds and cloud music storage as well. Just bought my mac and I am having trouble getting music onto my iphone because the majority is on the old, non valid email address account but I have to use my current apple ID on my iphone.... any suggestions on how to not lose everything and have it all in one place would be great! Thanks!

You are going to need to change the email address you use with your old ID. Once you have got access to your old account you will then log into both accounts at the same time on your Mac and transfer your data to a single account. We can do this later, but need you to get access to your old account first.

no - you simply have to select the option to print mucliples of a photo on a page
select the photo and go to the file menu ==> print - select the printer, paper size and print size and click customize - in the tool bar click on the settings icon (the gear looking thingy) and select "multiple of the same photo per page" and the preview will reflect this option showing a full page of the selected size photos

Can I download music and pictures from 2 different MacBooks onto one external hard drive?

I have looked around for the community, but have not found an answer here. Both my wife and I have 2 seperate MacBooks, but we wanted to put all of my pictures and music and all of her music and pictures onto one external hard drive. I read on another board that we can, but only if we purchase a Mini. Is it possible to do that without having to purchase a Mini? Or is purchasing a Mini the only way to be able to do that? Thanks in advance for any replies!

There is no reason that you cannot use a common external HDD for your communal data. Naturally you would have to disconnect it from one MBP and then connect it to the other when you wish to access the data or perform a download.
Any compatible external HDD will do, but make certain that you format it in Disk Utility to Mac OS Extended (Journaled).
Ciao.

I have Sun Life Financial bookmarked and when I click onto it, as it is trying to get on the site, the https tool bar goes wonky. Then the pinwheel comes on and I have to force quit. This does not happen on our other apple computer only on my new one

I have not used this app before so please excuse me if I am duplicating my question. I am trying to get onto one of my books marks but when I click on it, it starts going all wonky in the https bar. Then the pinwheel comes on. When I force quit and then go back into Safari it comes up on that company website but a different section that is asking me to check the date on my computer and some other things that could be a problem. This does not happen on our other mac only my new lap top. This problems only started this weekend. Any ideas?

Thanks for the response.
I attempted to remove cookies, but I can not identify any of the cookies on the list with the PrimeVest web site. No PrimeVest, no PVs, nothing that looks like it came from them.
I have also reported the problem to PrimeVest and their tech did answer. He suggested erasing the browsing history (temporary internet files), which I did with no effect. He also had me check for the correct starting page address, which was OK. He stated that they are aware of a problem and it is on their list. No indication of how far down that list though. His only cure was to use IE for now, which I was already doing. Perhaps he can tell me which cookies to remove.

Hi BobRz
Thanks for you suggestion but it didn't work - are there other ways for solving this problem? Or is it because my files that I want to copy and paste onto my hard disk etc are too big? (However there is space on my hard disk and it works on a PC)

I bought two songs off itunes and they wont sync onto my ipod touch but they did sync onto my ipod classic. I have tried all troubleshooting ideas to get the songs to sync on my ipod toch but nothing works. :(

I bought some songs off of itunes and the songs synced onto my ipod CLASSIC but they didnt sync into my ipod TOUCH. I have tried authorizing and deauthorizing my laptop, updating softwares but nothing works. Anyone know why this is happening?!?!?!

Hi,
The songs need to be in the playlist(s) that go onto the ipod touch.
Plug the ipod touch into the computer and go to the music section of it from the devices menu. From here make sure that the playlist(s) that go on to this ipod are the ones that have the new songs.
Once this is done, click sync/apply.
I hope this helps.
