Beta SP output

I need to output my film to Beta Sp format. My running time is 93 minutes. Does anybody have experience with SP running time. I see the Maxell tape stock is listed at 94 minute running time. Is this true for all the stock? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance

That might be pushing it...because you need 2 min BEFORE show starts for black and bars and tone. Typically 90 min stock runs to 93 or 94 to take this into account. SO if your show is actually 93 min, you might need to break it up onto two tapes.

  • Oracle Express and Displaying Better Error Output?

    I recently installed Oracle Express 10g and I would like to make the DBMS app output better error codes (in this case, I guess the DBMS is "Application Express 2.1?"). Is there any way, for example, to output more precise error codes that will help me pinpoint where exactly a given problem arises?
    A perfect example:
    I just tried to run the following query against the database:
    INSERT INTO ct_employee (ename, deptno, sal, mgr, job, hiredate, comm)
    VALUES('Debbie Howe', 20, 30000, 122, 'Clerk', 17-Dec-80, '');
    After clicking "Run", the following error message was displayed:
    ORA-00984: column not allowed here
    As you can see, there's no "arrows" pointing to where a given value might have been nosedived, nothing indicating where a column might be getting ignored or even anything explaining which value in general... Nothing. Only some obscure error code proceeded by Kafkaesque common sense (ironic).
    So again, if anyone has an idea regarding how to somehow enable better error messages or the like, I would really appreciate it.

    I wasn't using SQL*Plus...
    What I was trying to do here out of all this was install Oracle to my actual computer so that I could start practicing SQL on my own without having to log into any development or production environments.
    I installed SQL Express (completely free after registering to the Oracle website and logging into it with your provided e-mail address) for my main SQL / PL/SQL processing engine and after I did this, I then began using the "Application Express" to practice my SQL. Well, it turned out that it wasn't really doing what I needed it to (i.e. - various commands wouldn't output what I expected or multi-commands wouldn't work, etc.)
    This made me eventually realize that what I had on my localhost, in terms of database, would suffice, but in terms of DBMS (in layman's, you're editor for SQL code, if you will) would not work. This led me to download SQL*Plus. The rest is history!
    Steps to creating a basic localhost:
    1.) Download Oracle Express (prepare for a big download). Install. If you get any error messages, chances are they're the same ones I had during installation. I never paid much heed to them and to this day, experience no problems. Just click through them...
    2.) Download and install SQL*Plus. Again, expect a hefty download. The good thing about this, though, is that you only need to extract the main file and run the EXE in it. There's no installation involved.
    3.) If you're using localhost for your database stuff, set everything up in your EXE first-run by entering the following:
    Connection Name: "localhost"
    Username: <username>
    Password: <password>
    (You can choose to save your password, too.)
    I think everything else is already set, but in the event that it isn't, your hostname will be "localhost" and your port number will be "1521" (in most cases--this might be different in some office or work setting. In such an event, get with your systems geek.) Lastly, your SID will probably be "xe" and after you set all this up, you should press "Connect".
    Then you're golden. :.)

  • Better TV output

    I'm wondering if anyone has had any luck in getting better quality for TV output. The basic H264 at 320x240 is watchable but sort of low quality.
    Since CD quality is 480i, I'm wondering if mpg4 at the highest settings like 720x320 can get closer to that level of quality.
    not that I'd be using a lot, but if I'm going to spend hours converting my movies, I'd rather do it in a way that gives me the highest quality.

  • Flash Builder Beta 2 output folder issues

    I have a project that was created in FB Beta were everything was working fine; just updated to FB Beta 2 (uninstalled FB Beta).  With the existing project from FB Beta, I had to completely reset it up in FB Beta 2 (Data/Services, gateway.php, amf-config.ini, etc.).  The problem is in the Project's properties output folder FB keeps setting it to -> bin; in setting up the project I specified bin-debug, in FB Beta I was using bin-debug, if I click on restore defaults it sets bin-debug, but when I go back to properties it's back to bin.  I've never used bin in the past.  I've also had where FB creates a bin folder to put the output in (this is inconsistent) and when it does my .php files that are in the services folder are deleted/removed.  Pictures to describe are below.
    I select Restore Defaults / or manually type in bin-debug/ also this is how the project was created
    I go back to the projects properties and get this

    Thanks for the reply David.
    when you change the folder back to bin-debug does the package explorer update to indicate the change has been made ?
    Every time that I go into the projects preference under the output folder it always shows bin, but it inconsistently removes bin-debug and creates a bin folder and removes bin-debug.  Every time that I'm in properties I always make sure that I save with bin-debug set, so package explorer does show bin-debug. 
    Also have you tried to manually name the output path  outside of Flashbuilder then edit the actionscriptproperties file to to new path.
    I've always used bin-debug so I didn't have to manually name;  actionscriptproperties does show bin-debug also. 
    I don't know if you wanted me to try a new folder to see what happens?  I haven't,  I'd rather figure out why bin is always set.
    Thanks for the help and the reply,

  • Is it better to output t master file and then upload to youtube?

    I had to upload 33 videos to youtube today
    This has taken tooo long
    Just wondering, is it better to create a master file and then upload to youtube?
    I could maybe just copy the files to another machine and leave it to upload?
    Thanks
    Omar

    just to add:
    don't try to upload your Masterfile to YouTube!
    usually, the Masterfile is a copy of the projects timeline = proRes.
    that creates incredible large files = time for upload, wasting bandwidth, and YT will complain 'wrong settings'
    After saving a masterfile, which goes fast, you should use a 'Converter' of your choice (QuicktimePro, Mpg Streamclip, Compressor) to transcode into YT's recommended upload settings.-

  • How could I change font for IBM 9068 A03 printer so I get better output?

  • TV (video) output from new nano looks very good!

    Just a comment for those who may be wondering how the video quality on the new iPod nano looks when output to a TV. I have one of the old iPod AV docks with the s-video port and the new nano seems to work fine with that combination (using a standard s-video cable between the dock and the TV). Thus far I'm really impressed with the video quality, I can't see a single problem, the color is good, the quality and sharpness is as good as I've seen from any iTunes Store content, and as far as I can tell the frame rate is fine (no stuttering, skipped frames, or problems with audio sync). I'm amazed that such high quality video can come from such a small device. If it continues to look this good (after viewing more content and after more testing) then I think Apple may have "hit one out of the park." This thing could turn out to be the most popular iPod yet (if you have any interested in video and still want a small device).

    I just found out that the video out (TV) on the new nano supports video playlists so you can create playlists for back-to-back display on the TV. Not even the AppleTV will do that (even though the latter has been a highly requested feature for the AppleTV since day one). In fact, if you can do without the on-TV menus you may find that the nano is a better video output device than is the AppleTV (that is, the menus system on the nano doesn't appear on the TV output).
    Also, I just competed a few hours of video playback to my big-screen TV from the nano and I'm still impressed. No video problems at all, looks very good considering the quality limitation from the content that is currently on the iTunes Store (limited to standard definition, no HD movies, HD TV, or HD music videos as yet).

  • Multiple USB Audio Outputs?

    Is it possible to set up the mac mini to have multiple USB audio out puts? I'm wanting to use a mini displayport + usb audio > hdmi cable to a plasma for computer use. But is I want to listen to just plain music use USB audio to a DAC into a 2 channel system. So for this system I would need to use 2 USB outputs for music.
    Thanks

    Sure,
    You can output sound through more than one little external USB sound card, but probably not to more than one at a time. You'll have to select the Output in the Sound Preferences each time to switch them, too.
    But don't overlook the Mini's internal sound output as one of your 2-channel or 5.1 audio outputs. The 2009 Mini has better audio output than the PPC Mini, that I also had and used an external USB sound card with (M-Audio Transit). Of course, now there are cheap little external USB sound cards that look like a little thumb drive for an added 2-channel audio output. So, I'd use the Mini's internal output and an Optical cable for 5.1 sound out, if I were going to use one of those cheap little sound cards. But you can go the other way, too, if you want, with a better USB dongle (like the M-Audio Transit) for your 5.1 sound.
    Please let us all hear how it goes and what path works for your application.
    Peace to you,

  • FB Beta 2 removing import statements

    I have a project that was started in FB Beta 1 (everything was working great) and updated to FB Beta 2 SDK 4.0.0.10988.  I have a frequent but inconsistent problem in which while working in a module I'll have import statements in my script removed.  The last instance two import statements for user created MXML components were removed, and the code I was modifying didn't have anything to do with these components.  Previously I had import statements for ConversionType and TextConverter removed, this time I put the import statements in right before writing code to use them.
    I still have problems with Flash Builder Beta 2 output folder issues this is a previous post that was unanswered.
    If it helps: using MAC OSX and FB Beta 2 standalone.

    The issue with comments being removed when organize imports is run is a known issue captured by a small set of bugs:
    https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-18479 Comments do not remain with currect import statements when performing 'organize imports'
    https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-11396 Any data in between imports are deleted when doing an "organize imports" operation
    https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-17160 Import inserted into wrong location when existing import is followed by a single line comment
    Essentially, what it boils down to, we follow the same behavior as the JDT with one glaring exception: Turn off organizing imports when auto importing from code hints:
    https://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-23179 Change code hints auto import behavior so that imports are inserted in order, but unused imports should not be removed
    With the FB-23179 fix, your imports will only be removed when you explicitly organize imports. I hope this info helps.

  • Bass output of Lumia 920 quite weak

    I had a Nokia X6 earlier, which produced excellent music quality with deep bass. I do like my music to be bass heavy, and usually adjust the equalizers in such a way. Later I purchased a Lumia 800, which unfotunately had no equalizer (hence very poor bass) which was a real deal breaker for me, although it had other cool features. So I used my old X6 for music, and the Lumia 800 fro everything else. But it was cumbersome to carry two handsets, so yesterday I puchased the Lumia 920 only because it supports and equalizer which lets me adjust the bass. I realized that the music output on Lumia 920 is better than Lumia 800, but still not up to my old X6. I fiddled with the equalizer settings, but the bass just lacks the 'punch'. The Dolby effect is a nice little feature, but still I'm somehow not comfortable with the bass output. And yeah, I know that the bundled headset is of really poor quality, so I'm using a high end JBL pair of headphones (I used the same one with my X6 as well). I tested the sound output with the same set of tracks I used on the X6 and also the same pair of headphones. I really miss the rich, deep bass of the X6. My only intention of spending so much on Lumia 920 was to get better music quality with better bass output. Am I missing something something here,  or is Lumia 920's bass really weak? If so, is there any alternate music player which I can download, so that it produces powerful bass? Please help me out. Thank you.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I'm sorry but none of the Lumia phones are particularly good in music playback quality. The 920/820 are miles ahead of the 900/800 but still pales against the competition. From my experience the old Nokia N8 is very good, the N9 loses slightly but is still good, the Galaxy S3 is outstanding, the Galaxy S2 is mediocre and iphones (any model) won't disappoint. The Nokia X6 is built for sound so I'm not surprised that you find the 920 a downgrade in sound quality. As you've discovered an equalizer is not going to compensate for deficient sound. Quantity of bass is not equal to quality. If music playback is important to you I suggest look elsewhere.

  • S/PDIF digital optical output imac intel 2.4 ghz core 2 duo

    i checked in apple system profiler to see if i have an optical output available for my imac to connect for better sound quality to my new phillips blu ray home theater system. it appears that it does indeed have this type of output for high quality audio output
    just wondering if this wire is the correct one i would use to connect my imac to my new phillips blu ray surround system? i checked my imac hardware settings and it says
    S/PDIF OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
    Connection Combination Output
    S/PDIF OPTICAL DIGITAL AUDIO INPUT
    Connection Combination Input
    i read in the manual for the phillips blu ray,that it has an OPTICAL INPUT for audio,would this wire work to simply connect from the imac to the stereo???
    i found this wire on ebay that looks like it would be the correct one to connect the imac to the phillips blur ray Can somebody help me to confirm whether or not this wire will work and if i am even on the right track! Thank you very much for your help!!!
    this is the ebay listing for the wire i think will work:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160597409256#ht_1130wt_1141

    even though i did just order the wire online, lets start over since you obviously know what your talking about when it comes to this kind of stuff.
    i have a 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo imac(i believe late 2007) running latest version of snow leopard 10.6.7
    i used to have a killer phillips surround system300 watts that sounded great even though its petty to todays standards,i usually hooked it up with a cd/aux wire(headphone jack one side,red white other side) from the imac's headphone port to the stereo's aux input(red/white) but then my rabbit chewed the wires and speaker beyond repair,so i bought this brand new phillips blu ray system 100 watts thinking i would get much better sound while connected to my imac while playing movies,games etc. but once i hooked it up like i used with the older system,it sounds basically the same,only slightly better,when it should be 700 watts better! but i figured i was doing something wrong wince the imac has all these crazy better quality output ports and the new system has all these crazy better input methods. dont want to sound ********,i do know a lot about basic audio,editing and all things computers! anyways, i was poking around with the system profiler application and noticed it said the S/PDIF output mode was available and the imac had a digital output capability. i also noticed in the manual for the phillips that it said something about a coaxial/digital input and thus i thought by buying a special wire i need to make the connection i would get much better clearer or ever dolby or dts audio output,which most of the blu rays and games i play on my mac have. so basically i have all the necessary components except for the wire to achieve this dream of mine. thats where you came in to help,thank GOD!
    Here is the link for the exact model i ordered from walmart and already have set up and connected via the old method as we speak.
    http://www.walmart.com/ip/Philips-Blu-ray-Home-Theater-System-HTS3251B-F7/160049 41
    by comparing the player with the imac i have can you tell me if i am on the right track as i thought i was before?? Or what would you suggest i do to get better or the correct high def sound out of the imac from whatever is playing and to play out of the new phillips blu ray system i just bought. Thank you very much for all your time and helping me with what should be an easy, simple problem.

  • Print module issues

    Hi,
    for me there are three issues that are missing / should be improved with the print module:
    The  sharpening quality and setting options are still behind i.e. Qimage.  Having  in mind what Qimage is costing, it should be fairly ease for  Adobe to  reach the better Qimage output sharpening quality.
    Soft proofing is still missing and should be added in the next major release at the latest.
    There  should be something like a loop view for the print layout screen. When  using large format printer formats the rulers become extremely small that an  exact positioning is almost impossible.
    Looking forward to these, in the given priority.

    Why would you modify the resolution? One of the huge advantages of Lightroom is that you don't have to do things like this anymore.  You simply choose the output resolution in the Print Job panel and Lightroom takes care of the rest.  How (and why) exactly are modifying resolution?
    As to your second question, I am getting a print preview when I turn it on in the printer driver. Although I would never use it, it is working here.
    It might help to submit some system info and some printer info:

    iMOVIE 08 will accept the footage from your iMovie 6 project, but you will lose and transitions, titles, music, etc. and the clips may be out of order.

  • Use iMac in Target Display Mode with a Power Mac G4

    I would like to connect my Power Mac G4 MDD (Model = http://support.apple.com/kb/SP63) to the new iMac (27 inch, Mid 2010) in Target Display Mode. That is, I want the new iMac to be the display for my Power Mac G4. Has anybody done this (including using the iMac 27 inch, Late 2009, which can also do this)? In a general sort of way, this sort of thing is described on this support page: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3924.
    The problem: The iMac requires a Mini Displayport connection. The PowerMac has ADC and DVI-I display connections and also came with an adapter for converting DVI-I to VGA. How can I convert/adapt to get the appropriate Mini Displayport connection?
    Gefen makes a converter (http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8913) that will convert DVI-D to Mini Displayport, but the description explicitly says that it will work with DVI-D only while my PowerMac has DVI-I. I know that these are two different, incompatible connections.
    Is there another converter that works with DVI-I? Or is there a way to adapt from DVI-I to DVI-D? Or how about a VGA or ADC to Mini Displayport converter?
    Thanks.

    japamac-
    Thanks so much for your reply. You're right on target for what I'm looking for and that article is VERY helpful! If you don't mind, I do have a couple more questions/clarifications.
    1) First, I think that I didn't read the Wikipedia reference concerning DVI (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DigitalVisualInterface) closely enough. It includes the following paragraph. If I understand it and what you said, it shouldn't be a problem to connect the male DVI-D of the converter into the female DVI-I socket of my Power Mac. Right?
    +The long flat pin on a DVI-I connector is wider than the same pin on a DVI-D connector, so it is not possible to connect a male DVI-I to a female DVI-D by removing the 4 analog pins. It is possible, however, to connect a male DVI-D cable to a female DVI-I connector. Many flat panel LCD monitors have only the DVI-D connection so that a DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable will suffice when connecting the monitor to a computer's DVI-I female connector.+
    2) I'm not clear on the difference between the Altona AT-DP200 and the Gefen converter. The Gefen converter is somewhat less expensive, so I'm trying to figure out what the downside is. The article you mentioned says that the ATP-DP200 "doesn't scale images", but that seems to only be an issue if I'm trying to connect other devices (PS3, Blu-ray), not if I just want to connect my Power Mac.
    The description of the Gefen converter includes the following drawbacks:
    +The only major drawback to Gefen's solution is no support for VGA devices or HDCP. A minor gripe would be the fact that the Gefen device only accepts one input resolution and only outputs one resolution (1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz). These limited options aside, the Gefen device looks like it could do the basic trick of transforming a DVI signal to Mini DisplayPort so that you could use your 27" iMac for a few more purposes, provided that the input signal carries the required 1920 x 1200 resolution.+
    I'm not clear on what the practical impact of those limitations would be. I don't think the the lack of support for VGA devices or HDCP is an issue for my application. But I'm wondering about the statement that it only accepts one input resolution and outputs only one resolution (1920 x 1200) and the need for the input signal to carry 1920 x 1200. I take it, first of all, that the Power Mac can supply that input resolution. And, what is the impact of the device only having that resolution output to the iMac screen? That is, how would that look on the screen, ugly or okay? Finally, would the Altona device provide a better looking output on the iMac screen because it can apparently handle different resolutions? The manufacturer's description says, "Resolutions: all resolutions up to 1920x1200 (It is Important to select one of the resolutions that display
    is capable of displaying, refer to your display’s users manual)."
    Thanks again.

  • TV@ Plus, what video capture settings to use?

     I have a TV@ Plus and am unsure what video capture settings to use. I've had it for several months and solved my audio problems and need to know what Video Input Format, Capture Format (Profile), Capture - Size, Quality, Bit Rate and Audio Format settings to use. Should I use the same settings for all input sources or do I use different settings for CATV and S-video inputs? It seems to be OK with my current settings as far as capture and playback goes, I'm OK on the hardware part but with tech detatails I'm a bit  .
     I will be using it to capture from CATV, DVD and VCR input sources for later recording to DVD's. I use a GoDVD! CT-2 connected to the S-video input for recording Macrovision protected media to the HDD.
     My computer sound is monitor mounted stereo speakers.
     Thanks in advance for any helpful replies.

    I already had transferred and converted some of my old VHS and VCD movie collections into DVDs (using Composite Input).
    The higher the bit rate the better quality video output you will have - but bigger file size.
    To give you an example:
    A 2 hour video captured on MPEG set at 4000/bps will be translated it to 3.58GB. More than enough to be written on a 4.7 DVD.
    For audio bit rates, you can choose from 128/bps to 224/bps. As for me I set it to 224/bps. Again the bigger bit rates the better audio output. And don't forget to slide up the audio record level to 100%. That will give you a better and clearer recorded audio output.
