Can I Create a DVD in Captivate 5 to auto-run on Standalone DVD Player
I upgraded to Captivate 5 and created a 4-minute "infomercial" of our product. I was able to publish it as an exe so stores could play it on their Windows computer. I was also able to publish it as an Application so stores could play it on their Mac computers.
But how do I publish it for stores that just have a cheap stand-alone DVD player? Most DVDs the stores get from other vendors have a DVD with AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS files on the DVD and this just starts playing when they insert the DVD. I want to do that as well.
Adobe tech support said to publish my Captivate 5 project as SWF and check the Auto-play box. This generated about 5-6 files but none start up right away (although the one with an htm extension does run on my Windows Computer if I first click on it.)
Past Forum postings from years ago seem to say to Publish using F4V, convert using Adobe Media Encoder and then use Encore to create the final DVD. I did publish using F4V and then downloaded Adobe Media Encoder from your web site and ran the F4V file through that. Now I am stuck. Do I need to buy a $1,600 product called Creative Suite 5 to get to the last step and create a DVD that plays automatically when inserted in a Stand-alone DVD player? There must be a simpler (cheaper) solution. HELP!!!
Hi there
I'm guessing you will need to consider publishing as Media (F4V with Fixed Frame Rate). Then take that and pop it into a converter such as the ones you may easily find using Google.

Can we create different reservation no for each auto PR created through PS.
Hi Gurus
With reference to above captioned subject, can we create different reservation no for each auto PR created through PS
Thanks in advance
Regards
Abhijit SenHi,
The reservation number will be same for all the material components in one network.
so as long as there are "n" components in one networks then all the "'n" components will have the same reference number.
If you need different reservation numbers then need to maintain those components in multiple networks.
Hope its useful.
Reward points if useful.

DVD main track won't play on standalone DVD players
Hi!
I have a problem and I was wondering if anybody could help me here.
So, i got a DVD which I had to reauthor so I demuxed the disc with bbdemux and got an m2v and an audio file. I could import both files to DVDSP without using compressor. Than I added a first play track which is 20seconds long and after it goes to the menu. The menu has a main play button and a button to the track selection menu. I added the demuxed files to a second track, created the chapters, linked all the buttons, defined everything about the dvd. Then I built it and then burned it. It was all working in DVD Player and VLC, then I tried in my standalone DVD player and everything worked just like I wanted until I pushed the play button in the menu and it kind of blocked, it showed me the first frame of the chapter and it stopped. Nothing happened but the timer on the DVD player was counting. I tought I might have f*d up the bitrates, so I lowered them, no difference. Then I deleted the first track, left only the menu 'cause I tought it was "confusing" him. No, then I deleted all the menus and burned the disc only with the main track but no luck... I know it has to do something with the track files but what??? I have a JVC DVD player and it always played every dvd 'till now... I don't know what's the problem... Please help! So, it kind of freezes on the start of every chapter.so I demuxed the disc with bbdemux
You can try MPEG Streamclip to extract the original encoded files from the DVD. Probably the other demuxer did something to the original tracks.
Hope that helps !

I have a premiere pro project in Spanish and would like to add English subtitles with the final product being an MOV or MP4 file with permanent subtitles to upload to vimeo and embed on a website. Is this possible in Adobe Encore? No DVD or blu ray will be created.
Burned in subtitles are done in Premiere with the titler.

How Can I Create a Function to Return to a Specific Menu on DVD Studio Pro?
Hello, I am currently building a DVD for a TV series I created while in college, and I'm having trouble figuring out how to create a function within the DVD that lets the user select the title or menu buttons on their remotes and have that return them either to a) the main menu or b) the menu they were just at, ie episode select or chapter select. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Thanks for the help. I'm still a little confused on how to get it select which menu that I would like to return to.

Can I create a dynamic number of inputs during runtime?
Can I create a dynamic number of inputs during runtime?
Oracle 11g
Application Express 4.0.2.00.06
Here is my problem:
We have a table that holds metadata about files (hardcopy or softcopy files).
We expect we may need more columns in the table at some point and don't want to modify the table or the application.
So in order to do this I would like to create:
A table called TBL_FILE with the columns:
TBL_FILE_ID NUMBER (This will be the primary key)
TBL_FILE_NAME VARCHAR2(1000) (This will be the name of the file)
A second table will be called TBL_FILE_META with the columns:
TBL_META_ID NUMBER (This will be the primary key)
TBL_FILE_ID NUMBER (This will be the forign key to the file table)
TBL_META_COLUMN VARCHAR2(30) (This is what the column name would be if it existed in TBL_FILE)
TBL_META_VALUE VARCHAR2(1000) (This is the value that record and the 'would be' column)
So a person can have as much meta data on the file with out having to add columns to the table.
The problem is how can I allow users to add as much data as they like with out having to re develop the page.
Other things to note is that we would like this to be on a single page.
I know how to add we can create multi-row inserts by using a SQL Query (updateable report),
however the TBL_META_VALUE column in the TBL_FILE_META will sometimes be a select list and other times a text box or number field.
So I don't see now a SQL Query (updateable report) would work for this and I can't create an array of page items at run time can I?
Any idea's how I could accomplish this? Is there a better way of doing this?
Also is there a term or a name for what I am doing by creating these 'virtual' columns in another table?
I found this method when looking at Oracles Workflow tables.Welcome to the Oracle Forums !

Creating Page Items dynamically is not available. You will have to create excess items and hide/show , etc. But you cannot change the Item Type. All in all, too many limitations in this approach.
>
Other things to note is that we would like this to be on a single page.
>
The 100 item limit will hit you if you go with extra item on page. With Tabular Form that should not be a limitation, unless you are exceeding the 50 item limit of APEX_APPLICATION.G_Fnn items, and the 60 column limitation of Report region with "Use Generic Column Names (parse query at runtime only)" of Dynamic region.

If the type if item is variable it only means you need a way to store the item type. Meta Data of the Meta Data.

So I don't see now a SQL Query (updateable report) would work for this and I can't create an array of page items at run time can I?
>
Yes, you can do it. Updatable report/ Tabular Form query can be constructed from the Meta Data using PL/SQL Function Returning SQL Query . It will be a bit of coding in PL/SQL where you use the Meta Data and the Meta Data of the Meta Data to piece together your SELECT with the right APEX_ITEMs. It might have a performance penalty associated with it, but will not be a serious degradation.

I guess that is just a good TNF. It is the Master-Detail Design Pattern, that sound more modern ? ;)

Can we create a (RAC) db service to assign a conc mgr to an instance
Hi Everyone,
Can we create a rac db service to for EBusiness? For example, can we create a service for AP module to run on instance1 of a two nodes RAC, and a service for PO to run on instance2.
I know i can assign a node to a conc mgr and use the specialization rule to include/exclude a user to send request to that conc mgr. But this seperation is done at the ebusiness, not at database service.
My understanding was that we can not create a service at the db because all the requests comes from one conc mgr. But having the ability to create more than one conc mgr, so maybe the question now is can i create a service for a conc mgr. lets say, I create a db service for standardard mgr on instance1 and create a db service for custom_mgr on node2. Is this possible?
I am not on the distribution list, please email me at [email protected]

How can I create a DVD image that PC users can retrieve and burn...
I need to create a DVD disc image that PC users can retrieve from a private network share and burn to a blank DVD. Once burned, it needs to auto-start at the Menu. The master works fine. Images burned using the Mac Disk Utility work fine. But I have little control over who will download the image or the method by which they will burn it, so I need to provide visitors with guidance. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
Thank Jeff for this one.....

I've also heard that you can just copy an ".img" iDVD image to a pc, change the extension to .iso and then burn with Nero, etc. But I haven't tried it myself.....

How can I create a DVD (not CD) slide show with PSE8. Is the only option CD?
Do I need to upgrade to PSE9 for the DVD option for slide show output?
No, you can't create a video dvd with just PSE, and PSE 9 is no different from any other version where this is concerned. (Adobe wants you to use Premiere Elements.) However, if you have a DVD burner, you must have gotten some kind of software with it that can make a DVD for you. Create your slideshow, output as WMV and then use your other software to burn the actual video disc.

How can I create DVD label using Photoshop Elements 10?
RichardYou can create the design for a DVD label in Create>More Options. Once you have the label set up, you would copy it to a template for the labels you plan to use. (The PSE template makes one label, while most printed labels are two-up.)

Can I create hdtv slideshow output on DVD
Can I create hd output on DVD?
Can I create 1080x720 video and write to dvd's to play on a commercial dvd player for my Hdtv?
the highest output I see is 720 x 480??
thanks,>HD output from my commercial progressive scan DVD player
Not possible... to have HD output you need one of the "announced but not shipped" players, since the DVD specification does not provide for HD content that will play out to your HD Television... you simply can't stuff HD content on a DVD and have it play from the DVD to a TV

Can not create a DVD (It gets green on the lower half of monitor)
Hi, everyone. This is second posting.
I still have a problem when burning the DVD.
Now I am ready to create a DVD.
Then I simulated the project on DVD Studio Pro 4 ,the lower half of the monitor gets green.
And sometimes I can not burn a DVD (can not choose "format") or even I could do it and mount it again , it shows "untitled DVD") Besides the burned DVD also gets green.
My project worked fine on final cut pro.
Did I install This application wrong?
or my Macpro has a problem with itself?
I need help. Please please give me any advise.
Thank you.Yes, by citations I mean footnotes, or endnotes in this case.
I finally found the vertical ruler, which wasn't showing, but what really solved it for me was turning on invisibles, which let me see what the column breaks were doing. I still don't have the total control I want over the way it looks, but at least the two, two-column sections are separate and above and below the horizontal box. I wish all the citations were below the rule line.
But I was amazed and grateful to find that Word docs would drag and drop into Pages. This is going to be a great tool. I just started with it a few days ago. I will report the non-wrap bug.
Thanks,
