Am I on right track for 1st Bluray burn?  Getting concerned over how many 25gb discs needed......

Hello
I am working my way through my own HD 1st edit with CS5.5.2.  Using tutorial book, on line support and a paid tutor.  It is for a 1 hour 40 minute project of an important event, 1st time for a client I want to keep.  Things are looking OK....I think.
Specifics:  Shot 1080i 29.97 35mbs 4:2:0.   I'm on OS 10.7.5  with 6 core 3.46 Mac Pro 48gb RAM.  Very happy with edit.  But have tried tests with 16 minute length exports of section of the time line to self contained QT.  All at max bit rate and quality.  And also at progressive frame rate at the suggestion of my tutor.
Animation   156gb  
H.264           17.6gb
mpeg 4           9.7gb
All look great!  But am I going to have to get 50gb discs to keep this at no more than 2 discs?  (preferably 1 if will fit on a 50gb disc)  Obviously 3 hour Lord of The Rings type movies do. 
Not even sure as this is 1st time....if the internal LG 12x with Lightscribe (dvd only) internal drive that OWC put into it when they upgraded and built this machine for me on their "performance" side.......will even burn dual layer discs?  Now I can't find the exact skew number on it on their site that is on my invoice.  Do these in general burn dual layer?    Am I going to need dual layer if I drop down to 8 bit and whatever other recommended settings, that I am hoping someone here can please help me with?  I'm assuming from the above I need to use mpeg 4 settings and go back to 1080i 29.97 that the project was set up for.
Thanks very much
Ron

Jim.....I am confused about this MXF OP1a "self contained" format.  I took my test 16 minute portion of my main sequence as I have above with the other formats and exported to this format.  It said it was going to "4:2:2 50".  Which sounds great.  Better than it was shot....with the main Sony PMW 320 recording at 35mbs 4:2:0.  The encode was screaming fast, only about 5 minutes.  And the file was the smallest yet....only 7.31gb.  Great!! 
How do I make a bluray burn out of that?  I tried creating a new sequence in my project and inporting this and dropping it on my time line and then trying the Adobe Dynamic Link process and it said it could not do that to Encore. Previously today I was successful using the Dynamic Link process just straight from that 16 minute section of my sequence time line.  And the burned bluray took only around 2.93 gigs and about 15 minutes.   It looked fine on a 61" LED DLP rear projection set. 
But as previously mentioned I don't want to keep the entire project files on my drives once I am done.  I need a high quality self contained version so I have the archived copy, and can also burn from it additional copies down the road if needed.  How do I do that with this MXF OP1a file??  Will it look as good as the disc I got directly from my 16 minute test portion of my edit? 
Again, this is all new territory for me but I'm doing good and making great progress thanks to everyone's help.
Thanks much
Ron

Can I then use the Dynamic Link and auto setting that Ann is talking about
You can, yes.  Personally I prefer not to.  The transcodes get saved to the folder and it makes archiving more cumbersome.
Projects don't have 'settings' any more.  You can have any number of dfferent sequences in the same project.  But yes, you'd not change the sequence settings.  MXF OP1a would be an export option for archiving.

  • How many DNS record need to create in Internal & external DNS server for exchange?

    Hi friends,
    I recently installed Exchange Server 2010 in my organization for testing purpose and I've register a pubic ip too for exchange server on godaddy.com. How many
    internal & External DNS records reqired to configure on external & Internal dns server so my all feature like Auto-discover, Activ -sync,& webmail start working perfectly.
    It's my first time configuring exchange for a organization.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Pradeep Chaugule

    Hi,
    Just as what ManU Philip said, you need to create
    Autodiscovery.domaincom and mail.domain.com for external dns server.
    Generally, you configure your Exchange Servers as DNS clients of your internal DNS server.

  • I just recently purchased a mini iPad for my child. It was set up in the Apple store with my Apple id. I now want to create an Apple id for my child and switch it over, how can I go about that. I already downloaded some of the games from my account.

    With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
    Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want.  But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
    If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.  This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud.  Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
    To create a new icloud account, go to

  • Taxonomy - how many training documents needed for automatic classification?

    Greetings,
    I have an example based taxonomy.
    I have trained the taxonomy manually with about two documents and expected it to classify automatically after that which it has not done.
    According to the URL below
    http://www.scribd.com/doc/7234683/Retrieval-and-Classification-TREX-Features-and-Functions
    it is mentioned that "You can also classify documents automatically. A prerequisite for this is that there are existing document classes with sufficiently correctly classified documents that meet the classification criteria"
    Please advise if training the taxonomy with only two documents which I did was too little - exactly how many documents are needed? (the above URL does not give an indication of a number)
    Regards,
    Keith

    Still trying to solve the problem, adding and tailoring documents as best as I can.

  • Purchased a Bluray burner ... now how to burn blurays?

    I purchased a Buffalo BR3D-12U3 MediaStation bluray burner last week to use as a backup system (burn files to bluray). After reading the Amazon.com description where it states "Simply plug it in to your PC or Mac® and save or back up..." in several locations, I didn't even think there would be an issue using it with my iMac. That is until I got it (delivered) and read on the box that it's compatible with Windows and not Mac. What? Although this isn't my question, I must say that this is misleading advertising. Either it works on PC and Mac or it doesn't. Anyway. Now I need a solution...
    I don't intend on creating actual bluray movies with this burner. All I need it for is to burn backups of files onto the bluray disks with the potential (of course) of retrieving those files in the future if needed. In other words, I'm using the bluray disks as an alternative secondary backup system in case my external drive fails. Q: Can someone recommend software that will allow me to use this burner for this purpose on my iMac?

    Thanks. That did it! Successfully burned a bluray data disk despite even the manufacturer claiming that the burner is no Mac compatible!.

  • How do I determine how many GB I need for an iPad2?

    I probably won't download a lot of music or videos, but I do want to be able to use design apps and store photos.  What's a good way to figure out what capacity I need?

    Most apps don't require much storage capacity for the apps themselves but if an app creates and stores data, you need to consider that.
    How many photos do you have stored on your computer and how much storage space is required for the photos on your computer's hard drive?
    The same applies to music and video.
    In regards to available storage capacity, it is much better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it - especially with the iPad. Whatever storage capacity you choose cannot be changed/increased later on. Get the most you can afford.

  • Am i on the right track for establishing my client connection with BC4J?

    I am developing web-application with BC4J JSP project now. However, I find the auto-generated page not that useful as they are not flexible enough. Then, I decided to write coding by myself. But the first problem is - how to write the coding for client connection? To make maintenance easy, I would like to place those connection code in a class file instead of hard-coding each connection details in my JSP or Servlet page.
    Question 1: Through the examples I search in my JDeveloper (Candidate 2) directory, found a file TestClient.java in the \BC4J\samples\Caching\src\demo directory with the following codes:
    // Create an instance of the application module by name, using local mode
    String _am  = "demo.DemoModule"; // Fully-qualified application module name
    String _cf  = "DemoModuleLocal"; // Configuration name for connection info
    ApplicationModule am = Configuration.createRootApplicationModule(_am,_cf);
    // Find the Managers view object by name in the application module
    ViewObject mgrVO = am.findViewObject("Managers");
    // We're done with the AM instance, so release it
    Configuration.releaseRootApplicationModule(am,true);
    Is it for testing only or really useful for the production environment? Am I doing the right thing if i use such method to establish my web client connection? What's the pros and cons for using this method? Any other better alternatives?
    Question 2: As I know BC4J automatically takes care of connection pooling as a default manner since version 3.2. Can I still use the following statement
    session.setAttribute("user_name", user_name); //Set session attribute
    String user_name = (String) session.getAttribute(user_name); // Get session attribute
    to capture and assign client session correctly for individual clients?
    Question 3: What codes should I use to achieve 'Transaction' update, which assembles the coding as follows:
    Connection.setAutoCommit(false); //disable auto commit
    connection.commit();
    connection.rollback();
    connection.close();
    Thanks for answering!!!

What's the pros and cons for using this method? Any other better alternatives?The Configuration API (createRootApplicationModule, releaseRootApplicationModule) will work. However, please note
    that it is intended for java clients that will hold an ApplicationModule reference for a long duration. The BC4J web
    frameworks (represented, for example, by the ApplicationModule and ReleasePageResources tags) all use the
    SessionCookie interface to acquire/release ApplicationModule instances on a per request basis. This will allow
    better scalability. Please see the pooling sample / documentation / javadoc for more information about using these
    APIs. The pooling sample servlet is located in \BC4J\samples\Pooling\src\demo\TestPoolServlet.
    Question 2: As I know BC4J automatically takes care of connection pooling as a default manner since version 3.2. Can I still use the following statement
    session.setAttribute("user_name", user_name); //Set session attribute
    String user_name = (String) session.getAttribute(user_name); // Get session attribute
    to capture and assign client session correctly for individual clients?BC4J will not interfere with your use of the HttpSession context. How do you intend the "user_name" to be used? Do
    you intend it to represent the DB user, JAAS user, etc. If you intend it to be used as the DB user you will need to declare
    the "user_name" to BC4J. Please see:
    http://technet.oracle.com/products/jdev/howtos/bc4j/howto_dynamic_jdbc.html
    Question 3: What codes should I use to achieve 'Transaction' update, which assembles the coding as follows:
    Connection.setAutoCommit(false); //disable auto commit
    connection.commit();
    connection.rollback();
    connection.close();ApplicationModule.getTransaction().commit();
    ApplicationModule.getTransaction().rollback();
    If you are using the Configuration or SessionCookie APIs, as mentioned above, then the connection lifecycle will be
    managed for you. So, you should not need to invoke connection.close().
    Thanks for answering!!!
    Hope this helps.

    Please read this now, Instance Caging, which explains how can you divide CPU Cores among different database running on a server:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/performance/instance-caging-wp-166854.pdf
    When you add a new instance you also need to consider about available free memory on the server and additional IOs going to the disks. If you IO is already saturated then probably need to request new storage etc.
