Can anyone give me step by step directions to putting dvds to ipods?

I'm needing help to put convert dvds and then putting it into my video ipod. I just tried with Videora but it only converted 20 minutes of the movie mean girls.

There are many "flavors" of DVD material. I have some converted 8mm film that was later converted to MPEG-1 and then to DVD (MPEG-2).
If you don't own the rights to the material (copy rights) the distribution of software, or methods of circumvention, are illegal in the U.S.
Sharing this (freely available) tips and tricks of conversion can also land some people into law issues they don't wan't.
Just because you "purchased" a movie on DVD doesn't give you the right to convert it to other formats.
Let the lawyers now chime in.

  • Can anyone give me an example of direct, queued and unserialized delta?

    hi all,
    Can anyone give me an example of direct, queued and unserialized delta for fi and sd applications.
    thanxs in advance
    regds
    hari

    hi,
    Update Methods,
    a.1: (Serialized) V3 Update
    b. Direct Delta
    c. Queued Delta
    d. Un-serialized V3 Update
    Note: Before PI Release 2002.1 the only update method available was V3 Update. As of PI 2002.1 three new update methods are available because the V3 update could lead to inconsistencies under certain circumstances. As of PI 2003.1 the old V3 update will not be supported anymore.
    a. Update methods: (serialized) V3
    • Transaction data is collected in the R/3 update tables
    • Data in the update tables is transferred through a periodic update process to BW Delta queue
    • Delta loads from BW retrieve the data from this BW Delta queue
    Transaction postings lead to:
    1. Records in transaction tables and in update tables
    2. A periodically scheduled job transfers these postings into the BW delta queue
    3. This BW Delta queue is read when a delta load is executed.
    Issues:
    • Even though it says serialized , Correct sequence of extraction data cannot be guaranteed
    • V2 Update errors can lead to V3 updates never to be processed
    Update methods: direct delta
    • Each document posting is directly transferred into the BW delta queue
    • Each document posting with delta extraction leads to exactly one LUW in the respective BW delta queues
    Transaction postings lead to:
    1. Records in transaction tables and in update tables
    2. A periodically scheduled job transfers these postings into the BW delta queue
    3. This BW Delta queue is read when a delta load is executed.
    Pros:
    • Extraction is independent of V2 update
    • Less monitoring overhead of update data or extraction queue
    Cons:
    • Not suitable for environments with high number of document changes
    • Setup and delta initialization have to be executed successfully before document postings are resumed
    • V1 is more heavily burdened
    Update methods: queued delta
    • Extraction data is collected for the affected application in an extraction queue
    • Collective run as usual for transferring data into the BW delta queue
    Transaction postings lead to:
    1. Records in transaction tables and in extraction queue
    2. A periodically scheduled job transfers these postings into the BW delta queue
    3. This BW Delta queue is read when a delta load is executed.
    Pros:
    • Extraction is independent of V2 update
    • Suitable for environments with high number of document changes
    • Writing to extraction queue is within V1-update: this ensures correct serialization
    • Downtime is reduced to running the setup
    Cons:
    • V1 is more heavily burdened compared to V3
    • Administrative overhead of extraction queue
    Update methods: Un-serialized V3
    • Extraction data for written as before into the update tables with a V3 update module
    • V3 collective run transfers the data to BW Delta queue
    • In contrast to serialized V3, the data in the updating collective run is without regard to sequence from the update tables
    Transaction postings lead to:
    1. Records in transaction tables and in update tables
    2. A periodically scheduled job transfers these postings into the BW delta queue
    3.This BW Delta queue is read when a delta load is executed.
    Issues:
    • Only suitable for data target design for which correct sequence of changes is not important e.g. Material Movements
    • V2 update has to be successful
    hope it helps

    If the iPhone is still working and the photos are in the Camera Roll (i.e., taken on the iPhone) then, when you connect the iPhone to your PC, it should be recognized as a Camera and Windows should start AutoPlay.

  • Can anyone plz tell me the steps for performance tuning.

    hello friends
    what is performance tuning?
    can anyone plz tell me the steps for performance tuning.

    Hi Kishore, this will help u.
    Following are the different tools provided by SAP for performance analysis of an ABAP object
    Run time analysis transaction SE30
    This transaction gives all the analysis of an ABAP program with respect to the database and the non-database processing.
    SQL Trace transaction ST05
    The trace list has many lines that are not related to the SELECT statement in the ABAP program. This is because the execution of any ABAP program requires additional administrative SQL calls. To restrict the list output, use the filter introducing the trace list.
    The trace list contains different SQL statements simultaneously related to the one SELECT statement in the ABAP program. This is because the R/3 Database Interface - a sophisticated component of the R/3 Application Server - maps every Open SQL statement to one or a series of physical database calls and brings it to execution. This mapping, crucial to R/3s performance, depends on the particular call and database system. For example, the SELECT-ENDSELECT loop on the SPFLI table in our test program is mapped to a sequence PREPARE-OPEN-FETCH of physical calls in an Oracle environment.
    The WHERE clause in the trace list's SQL statement is different from the WHERE clause in the ABAP statement. This is because in an R/3 system, a client is a self-contained unit with separate master records and its own set of table data (in commercial, organizational, and technical terms). With ABAP, every Open SQL statement automatically executes within the correct client environment. For this reason, a condition with the actual client code is added to every WHERE clause if a client field is a component of the searched table.
    To see a statement's execution plan, just position the cursor on the PREPARE statement and choose Explain SQL. A detailed explanation of the execution plan depends on the database system in use.
    Need for performance tuning
    In this world of SAP programming, ABAP is the universal language. In most of the projects, the focus is on getting a team of ABAP programmers as soon as possible, handing over the technical specifications to them and asking them to churn out the ABAP programs within the “given deadlines”.
    Often due to this pressure of schedules and deliveries, the main focus of making a efficient program takes a back seat. An efficient ABAP program is one which delivers the required output to the user in a finite time as per the complexity of the program, rather than hearing the comment “I put the program to run, have my lunch and come back to check the results”.
    Leaving aside the hyperbole, a performance optimized ABAP program saves the time of the end user, thus increasing the productivity of the user, and in turn keeping the user and the management happy.
    This tutorial focuses on presenting various performance tuning tips and tricks to make the ABAP programs efficient in doing their work. This tutorial also assumes that the reader is well versed in all the concepts and syntax of ABAP programming.
    Use of selection criteria
    Instead of selecting all the data and doing the processing during the selection, it is advisable to restrict the data to the selection criteria itself, rather than filtering it out using the ABAP code.
    Not recommended
    Select * from zflight.
    Check : zflight-airln = ‘LF’ and zflight-fligh = ‘BW222’.
    Endselect.
    Recommended
    Select * from zflight where airln = ‘LF’ and fligh = ‘222’.
    Endselect.
    One more point to be noted here is of the select *. Often this is a lazy coding practice. When a programmer gives select * even if one or two fields are to be selected, this can significantly slow the program and put unnecessary load on the entire system. When the application server sends this request to the database server, and the database server has to pass on the entire structure for each row back to the application server. This consumes both CPU and networking resources, especially for large structures.
    Thus it is advisable to select only those fields that are needed, so that the database server passes only a small amount of data back.
    Also it is advisable to avoid selecting the data fields into local variables as this also puts unnecessary load on the server. Instead attempt must be made to select the fields into an internal table.
    Use of aggregate functions
    Use the already provided aggregate functions, instead of finding out the minimum/maximum values using ABAP code.
    Not recommended
    Maxnu = 0.
    Select * from zflight where airln = ‘LF’ and cntry = ‘IN’.
    Check zflight-fligh > maxnu.
    Maxnu = zflight-fligh.
    Endselect.
    Recommended
    Select max( fligh ) from zflight into maxnu where airln = ‘LF’ and cntry = ‘IN’.
    The other aggregate functions that can be used are min (to find the minimum value), avg (to find the average of a Data interval), sum (to add up a data interval) and count (counting the lines in a data selection).
    Use of Views instead of base tables
    Many times ABAP programmers deal with base tables and nested selects. Instead it is always advisable to see whether there is any view provided by SAP on those base tables, so that the data can be filtered out directly, rather than specially coding for it.
    Not recommended
    Select * from zcntry where cntry like ‘IN%’.
    Select single * from zflight where cntry = zcntry-cntry and airln = ‘LF’.
    Endselect.
    Recommended
    Select * from zcnfl where cntry like ‘IN%’ and airln = ‘LF’.
    Endselect.

    I'm trying to delete multiple pix in iPhoto that i stupidly made duplicates of without knowing, I've tried going into the applications folder and using image capture but i think I've missed a step , can anyone send the correct info / steps pls thanks

    again image capture is not involved with deleting photos from iPhoto in any way ever
    the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager is very good for finding duplicates as is Duplicate Annihilator
    And I have no idea who told you this - or what it means - but re-read both of my opening statements
    I was told I could delete multpiles thru image capture by transferring my iPhoto library etc

    can anyone give a good contact number for someone in the upper level of customer care i have talked to two of the worst people from customer service, the "supervisor" who was very appropriate did give me a address to mail a complaint which i will but being a disabled veteran of the Iraq war and a member of the wounded warrior project i get upset at certain people who show no respect for the average person and even worse of an attitude to those injured serving their country. I'm in no way saying I'm better its just that i expect a grain of respect as a person, a fellow American working everyday just to get by. my issue was not an impossible issue to resolve but i was told by one rep that it was not possible after my call being "dropped" i called back and talked to another. Luke from call center Washington state told me it was possible but that the phone i ordered two days prior (that rep failed to finish the order)was no longer available and i could pick a different phone not on back order.......i mentioned my confusion to the lack of service and being told two separate things. i asked why this was when i was not the one who made the mistake he told me it was not there fault and pushed the blame to me....he then called me dude and started to speak over me. when i asked to speak to a supervisor he asked why i told him i was no longer interested in talking to him he said why, i asked to be transferred again he kept refusing saying listen man I'm trying to help you what do you want. i asked to speak to his supervisor at least three more times he refused. i asked for his employee information so i could call back to report his rude behavior he refused to give me anything except at the end he finally told me his name.. there is more but my hand is tired is there anyone who can help me? if i find an answer as i will be posting this to many sites i will post it here.

  • Can anyone give me some documents for data cluster

    Hi,
    can anyone give me some documents for data cluster?
    ths!
    regards!

    Hi ,
    The following is a documentation on the <b>Data Cluster</b>:
    <b>Data clusters</b> are specific to ABAP. Although it is possible to read a cluster database using SQL statements, only ABAP can interpret the structure of the data cluster.
    You can store <b>data clusters</b> in special databases in the ABAP Dictionary. These are called ABAP cluster databases, and have a prescribed structure:
    <u><b>Cluster Databases</b></u> ( I have explained the cluster databse below )
    This method allows you to store complex data objects with deep structures in a single step, without having to adjust them to conform to the flat structure of a relational database. Your data objects are then available systemwide to every user. To read these objects from the database successfully, you must know their data types.
    You can use cluster databases to store the results of analyses of data from the relational database. For example, if you want to create a list of your customers with the highest revenue, or an address list from the personnel data of all of your branches, you can write ABAP programs to generate the list and store it as a data cluster. To update the <b>data cluster</b>, you can schedule the program to run periodically as a background job. You can then write other programs that read from the data cluster and work with the results. This method can considerable reduce the response time of your system, since it means that you do not have to access the distributed data in the relational database tables each time you want to look at your list.
    <b>Cluster Database :</b>
                    Cluster databases are special relational databases in the ABAP Dictionary that you can use to store data clusters. Their line structure is divided into a standard section, containing several fields, and one large field for the <b>data cluster.</b>
    <b>Creating a Directory of a Data Cluster</b>
    To create a directory of a data cluster from an ABAP cluster database, use the following statement:
    Syntax
    <b>IMPORT DIRECTORY INTO <dirtab>
                     FROM DATABASE <dbtab>(<ar>)
                     [CLIENT <cli>] ID <key>.</b>
    This creates a directory of the data objects belonging to a data cluster in the database <dbtab> in the internal table <dirtab>. You must declare <dbtab> using a TABLES statement.
    To save a <b>data cluster</b> in a database, use the <b>EXPORT TO DATABASE</b> statement .
    For <ar>, enter the two-character area ID for the cluster in the database. The name <key> identifies the data in the database. Its maximum length depends on the length of the name field in <dbtab>. The CLIENT <cli> option allows you to disable the automatic client handling of a client-specific cluster database, and specify the client yourself. The addition must always come directly after the name of the database.
    The IMPORT statement also reads the contents of the user fields from the database table.
    If the system is able to create a directory, SY-SUBRC is set to 0, otherwise to 4.
    The <b>internal table</b> <dirtab> must have the ABAP Dictionary structure CDIR.
    <b>******** Sample Program illustrating the data cluster .</b>
    PROGRAM Zdata_cluster.
    TABLES INDX.
    ******to save data objects in cluster databases
    DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 100,
            COL1 TYPE I,
            COL2 TYPE I,
          END OF ITAB.
    DO 3000 TIMES.
      ITAB-COL1 = SY-INDEX.
      ITAB-COL2 = SY-INDEX ** 2.
      APPEND ITAB.
    ENDDO.
    INDX-AEDAT = SY-DATUM.
    INDX-USERA = SY-UNAME.
    INDX-PGMID = SY-REPID.
    EXPORT ITAB TO DATABASE INDX(HK) ID 'Table'.
    WRITE: '    SRTF2',
         AT 20 'AEDAT',
         AT 35 'USERA',
         AT 50 'PGMID'.
    ULINE.
    SELECT * FROM INDX WHERE RELID = 'HK'
                       AND   SRTFD = 'Table'.
      WRITE: / INDX-SRTF2 UNDER 'SRTF2',
               INDX-AEDAT UNDER 'AEDAT',
               INDX-USERA UNDER 'USERA',
               INDX-PGMID UNDER 'PGMID'.
    ENDSELECT.
    ****To create a directory of a data cluster from an ABAP ****cluster database
    DATA DIRTAB LIKE CDIR OCCURS 10 WITH HEADER LINE.
    IMPORT DIRECTORY INTO DIRTAB FROM DATABASE
                                      INDX(HK) ID 'Table'.
    IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
      WRITE: / 'AEDAT:', INDX-AEDAT,
             / 'USERA:', INDX-USERA,
             / 'PGMID:', INDX-PGMID.
      WRITE  / 'Directory:'.
      LOOP AT DIRTAB.
        WRITE: / DIRTAB-NAME,  DIRTAB-OTYPE, DIRTAB-FTYPE,
                 DIRTAB-TFILL, DIRTAB-FLENG.
      ENDLOOP.
    ELSE.
      WRITE 'Not found'.
    ENDIF.
    *******run this program and see the result.
    Hope this documentation will give you an idea of data cluster.
    if useful, do reward with the points.
