Best speed for best quality

When buring music from iTunes to a CD, what's the optimal speed for the optimal quality and fewest skips? I have good quality of sound on the CDs I've burned, but get too many skips.

When you say speed, you mean the speed of how quick iMovie can export the video? Or do you mean how smooth it playsback? Of all the output options, I think Share Menu > Export Movie... Then choose the Large size. That will make a .m4v file which is really just an MP4. Once that uploads to YouTube, think you'll get the best of all options that way. Frame size will probably be 480p, but look when played back full screen.

What are the best ways (for best performance) in MII to process the incoming process messages from shop floor systems to SAP ECC 6.0 and vice versa?

Hi All,
Can you please suggest to choose the best ways (for best performance) in MII (12.2 on NW 7.3), to process the incoming process messages from shop floor systems to SAP ECC 6.0 and vice versa?
Thanks

Hi Surya,
Best practices for flow of data from ECC --> SAP MII --> Shop floor & Vice verse:
1. Send ECC data through IDOC's/RFC's as messages to SAP MII message listener and BSL transaction process data and update directly on shop floor database as if you configured in Data services or later send those data by web service to shop floor system (i.e. depends on Shop floor machines).
From Shop floor:
shop floor --> SAP MII --> ECC
1. Use either Web service or fetch data from DB and pass data to BAPI's for sending to ECC through BLS transaction.

Best settings for highest quality results, Blu-Ray vs DVD

I am shooting AVCHD 1080p 60fps with a JVC GC-PX100, using a Windows 7, i7-2600 3.40Ghz., 8Gb.RAM, 1 TB HDD with PE11 and a Pioneer Blu-Ray writer drive.
I'm looking to find the best settings for replay on a 55" HDTV. I have tested both BD and DVD without seeing very much difference between the two as far as video quality is concerned,
but I want to make sure I'm using the right settings for the best quality on both drives. Can someone please offer a step by step settings procedure for both BD and DVD, also which do you
think is the better route to take between the two?
Also, I have noticed there is a ghosting image after letters/numbers on faster moving content (like railroad cars) on my video even before transferring it, can anyone give some insight to what that might be and if there may be a solution ??
Many thanks for your anticipated help.

Rikko
Thanks for the reply.
Referring back to your post 4.
Additional info: When I published my test video for DVD I chose “Computer” on the Publish+Share drop-down list, then chose MPEG, Presets: HDTV 1080p 29.97 High Quality.
Saved and burned to DVD. I also did the same choosing AVCHD Presets: MP4 – H264 1920x1080p 30. Saved and burned to DVD
Let us clarify. When the end result is "...burned to DVD" in either case, are saying that you take your saved file to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc or AVCHD on DVD disc, using another Premiere Elements 11 project on Windows 7 64 bit.
My post numbered 1, contained the step by step for taking your 1080p60 Timeline directly to DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc.
If you are going to introduce intermediates in your workflow (Timeline content saved to file and then burn to disc), then I would offer the following scheme
a. 1080p60 project preset (project 1)
b. 1080p60 Timeline saved to file via
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p30 (and then under the Advanced Button/Video Tab, customize the export settings for 1080p60 instead of 1080p30)
c. Import that back into Premiere Elements 1080p60 project (project 2) and burn to disc DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, AVCHD on DVD disc, or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc..
This is another alternative interpretation to your saved and burned to DVD.....in one project, you are doing two different exports...one to a file saved to the hard drive and after than the burn to disc (be it DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, AVCHD format on DVD disc, or Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc). If this is the case, there is no "intermediate".
There used to be the discussion about HDV to DVD-VIDEO format on DVD disc - whether HDV file should be imported into the project as source or whether the user should downsize the HDV to DV widescreen in the camera before import into a DV Widescreen Premiere Elements project. As we getting into this type of question with your 1080p60 to DV widescreen?
Please review and consider. And, then please let me know if any of the above addresses your considerations.
Thanks.

Book - best settings for best photo quality

What are the best settings for my photos in order to get the best quality book?
Thanks
Zasa

zasa:
Use the largest file, pixel wise, that you can. The books are printed at 300 dpi so the largest size the better to insure you'll get as close to that dpi for the largest page picture possible.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Best options for decent quality output?

Hi all, I'm using a Canon HG10 shooting HD AVCHD. I am pretty pleased with the new archive facility as it's helping save space, and I'm debating whether to edit in 960x540 or 1920x1080.
The 1080 footage looks way better onscreen (to my eye at least) in the original AVCHD and the ingested AIC format. However I can't seem to get a really decent output stage.
Can anyone recommend share/export settings that will give me 1080 video in the 4-8gb/hr range that approaches the quality of the raw footage?
Thanks in advance!

For good quality 1920x1080 video, you will need much higher data rates.
If you are burning BluRay, export using Quicktime in AIC, and drag the resulting file into TOAST version 9 or 10. If you want to play on a Sony PS3 or on your MAC, export using QuickTIme to h.264 format.
Here are some settings that work for me:
1) export from iMovie using Share using Quicktime...
2) select format MPEG-4
3) select options:
a) under file format select MP4 (not MP4 ISMA)
b) under video tab select H.264
data rate in of 16000 to 18000 kbits/sec (Toast uses 16000 when burning to BluRay)
image size---1920X1080HD
frame rate---select 29.97 (I am NTSC)
key frame---select either automatic or every 24 frames
video options---select "MAIN" profile and single pass encoding
under audio tab select default AAC-LC
under streaming tab select default "not enabled"

Best settings for highest quality for exporting a .mov file to h.264

Hi,
I want to know what the best settings are for the highest quality for exporting a .mov file (720p50) to h.264. I want the same quality as the original.
I want to know the data rate etc.
regards,
Jeroen
Message was edited by: Woudgraaf-AV

There is no way to get the exact same quality when transcoding from an editing source to a highly compressed H.264 QT. However, you can get a real high quality by adjusting the data rate.
However, these things depend on the length of the original. I routinely encode H.264s with good results in the 3000-5000 data rate range. I also make sure that I use multiple pass encoding. Take a short snippet of your project (10 seconds or so), and try various bit rates until you have one you like that doesn't take forever.

'Photo's resizing? Best size for best quality?

Hi, I want to put a London underground tube (metro) map on the 'Photos' section on my iPhone. I know that iTunes resizes all images before they go onto the phone, but that is the best size and quality to ensure the image comes out the clearest on the phone? Thanks.

Really hard to say. Quality is subjective. But the "optimizing" a sync does does make it hard to get large images onto the phone and still look good to zoom in if you have that much detail.
Will say, what a person did for the NY and DC subway/metros maps, they took the image and sliced it into multiple pictures, each being the size of the screen (so resize the original first to be proportional). Then they named them in order from top left to bottom right. Then made a folder named SubWayMap and put those images in it and put that folder in the folder they sync
In the end, they can access their photos, all the thumbnails side by side reveal the full map, then you click which part of the map to see (thus go into one image) and that image could zoom and still be clear to read what they needed.

Logging old VHS/Beta tapes to FCP. Best route for picture quality?

Logging old broadcasts recorded on VHS. Most look very good for the time from, some have slight "ghosting" and other carious imperfections. I am using one of the best VCRs and Beta Machines ever made in Sony Super VHS and Super Betas. Both have S-Video outputs. Logging with Formac Studio and I also have a Canopus ADVC-100. Shall I go this route because the picture quality won't get any better? Or any other suggestions? Thanks.

I have an AJA IO, which is an older capture device, and have done quite a few jobs like you are describing. The IO (or another high-quality capture device) allows you to input S-VHS, or another analog signal, such as YUV component video, which many beta decks have, and capture the material to an uncompressed 8- or 10-bit QT, thereby preserving the maximum quality possible. Converting to DV compresses the footage, which can't be undone later down the pipeline, so if you are planning to output to another compressed format, such as MPEG-2 for DVD, you will compress it yet again and lose even more quality. I guess it all depends on the deliverables you need.

Best export for dvd quality using final cut express hd?

hey guys
i have final cut express hd...what would be the best export settings to get nice highquality dvd?
i am going to put about 25, short 5 minute clips in the dvd..will it be able to fit and all be a nice quality?
any suggestions?
thankyou!

Yes, provided you use dual layer DVD-R and your burner supports this newer media.
Otherwise the most you can burn to DVD-R SL media is 120 mins. (but keep in mind menus, titles, photos, etc all consume space as well thereby reducing the available amount of run time / QT Playback.

Best Speakers for CD-quality in iTunes?

What are the best speakers to hook up to the IMAC to get CD-quality from the iTunes digital jukebox? I want a full, rich, clear sound (clearer than what iTunes offers) that is not bass heavy. Sometimes, the sound appears far away or tinny just on the iTunes jukebox.

I use the Bose Computer speakers already mentioned. If they are not suitable then go shopping to listen to what suits your ears.
My home system is Bose Acoustimass 10 speakers through a Denon AVR. I also interface a Apple TV to the Denon and all sounds nice to my ears.
What suits my ears might not sound nice to yours - it is subjective.

Best speed for burning?

hello everybody
I just purchased an brandnew imac g5 with 17" 1,5 gb ram and the smaller processor. it runs with a external lacie dvd burner, double layer all new, all hot. i finally made a animated foto-dvd with 1500 pictures ready to copy. i want to copy the master-dvd with toast titanium lite. i have to make quite a bunch of them now and in the future. now my question: wich is the safest and fastest speed to do the copying? hope that saves me from throwing dvds "out of the window".....
thanks a lot for any good advice
eddie wagner

I have a related question. I have good luck with Verbatim DVD -R disks.
If I burn at 2x always, does it make a diference if I buy the disks that are rated at 8X or at 16 X? I wanna buy what ever is most compatible with my family;'s DVD players, but it seems to me these should not matter as long as the actual burn speed is 2x.
I plan to burn mostly home movies and back-ups in this media
Thanks for any help,

What is the best format for broadcast quality

I am a web developer, but some of the things i did in flash my company wants to use for a tv commercial. They are not taking no for an answer (I tried). I have limited experience with video editing, but i have some.
My question is what size (dimentions) + format do I output a finished product in for the tv station? I know some formats don't have a size (dimentions). For example a wmv doesnt realy have a pixel size like 640 x 480.
I would be exporting a .mov from flash. Then editing it accordingly in Final Cut. So i would need to know what size to make my flash piece, because in flash you need to set dimentions in pixels by height and width.
If anyone could help me out by pointing me in the right direction i would really appreciate it.

Jumping into HD, when you don't even know the basics of SD, is not recommended. SD is simple: 720x486 (sometimes 720x480) and 29.97fps. That's it. Simple. Digitbeta, betasp, DVCPRO 50...maybe DV (if cable access)
HD is not simple. 1080i? 720p? 1080p? 23.98fps? 29.97fps? 59.94fps? HDCAM? HDCAM SR? D5? DVCPRO HD? Not to be entered into lightly.
No offense, but they need somone experienced with broadcast standards to make this output. You can provide the file, but someone needs to take it from there. I know that I would be the LAST person to go to for encoding a flash video for the web.

Best settings for best movie export?

I would like to export my Keynote presentations as QT movies, full size, best quality. But when I do the transitions are very choppy.
Any suggestions on exporting so that the transitions are smooth and it looks more professional?

Hello Mark,
I've done quite a bit of work with Keynote, and use it in conjunction with iMovie and iDVD. I assume you would want widescreen? HD720p is the format that gives the best result. Set your document size to reflect this, at 1280x720 pixels. Export to QuickTime at 'Full Quality, Large'. Make sure you have set you export for PAL or NTSC depending on need, and make sure the info in the settings panel reflect your choice. If they don't, choose 'Custom Settings'. Make sure you use 'Apple Intermediate Codec' and change the frame rate to suit, 25 for PAL and 29.7 for NTSC. I've found this gives me exceptional quality, but they will look and play better in iMovie than the QuickTime player for some reason.
I hope that's of some help.

Best option for best display without DVD

I've been reading all the b/g threads as research...
I have a 1920x1080 project timeline, 23 mins total time. Source material 1080i mixed with some other soure material. I export as Quicktime Conversion, choose NTSC 720x480 16:9 (853x480) to burn to a DVD in iDVD (max 480 lines). Part of my timeline has a high res graphic overlay, like a super in the corner over all video in the timeline. When I export at 1280x720 QT, it looks great in my external (DVI out) computer monitor. When I burn the 853x480 QT movie to iDVD and play in the (brand new) scalable Sony DVD, I choose the HDMI source (1080p) option and the image appears less than stellar, the graphic is smudgy and the titles are not brilliant sharp. Then I switch over my source over to VIdeo 1 (480 lines - composite) on the DVD player and the image looks pretty much the same, smudgy and not as sharp as I was hoping. It is playing full screen 16:9 but I'm a little disappointed in the quality of 480.
I have to play this video at a convention in a hall, with LCD panels and a large projector. Here's what I'm thinking. Why use DVD at all. Wouldn't I just want want to hookup laptops with VGA output to to go LCD panels instead of DVD players that limit the quality. QT player has the option to loop video. Same with computer out to projector via VGA. Is this the solution? Or will 720p choke on a PC laptop.
On a Mac, DVI to VGA to 40" LCD panel? HD display?
On a PC, VGA out to VGA in 40" LCD panels.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

Thanks for the hedzup on VGA devices on PC laptops. So the substitue would be to insist on MacBook Pro for playback as they have DVI out, which would give me what I want on an LCD panel for quality video at 1280x720 or 1920x1080i or p? The video is only 22 min long.
But you have suggested another option as well? I didn't know this is possible. I have my MacBook Pro DVD burner, and my DVD player is Blu-ray compatible at HDMI 1080p with HDMI cable. Can I really burn a Blu-ray video with Roxio Toast to 1280x720 on my MacBook, and it will play at 720p in the DVD player, bypassing the limitations of iDVD? I understood Blu-ray was a completely different laser technology with unique DVD disks.
