Cineform Quality Levels - Do they mean something?

I'm very excited that those of us on Windows now have a decent intermediate codec in Cineform. I'd previously used CF through QT but it was pretty clunky so I'm glad it's fully integrated now. However, in the encoding presets there's a "quality" parameter with no explanation in the help files or online that I can find. It defaults to 4 but goes from 1-5. What does this mean? Cineform itself has quality levels of low,medium, high, film scan 1, film scan 2, and I think one other. So what are these? I've tested a bit and they definitely control bitrate but there is no good way to tell which ones are still considered visually lossless, which is what I'm going for. Ideas?

The quality values link as such:
1 - Low
2 - Medium
3 - High
4 - Film Scan 1
5 - Film Scan 2
Sorry for the confusion. I'll contact the documentation team and see about getting something put in there to explain this better.

HT1349 How do you get help from apple if you don't know where to find the serial number of my "product." I don't know if they mean my itunes program, my iphone, my computer, which one, the number on the computer (is there one), or something in Windows or

How are you supposed to get help from Apple if you don't know what your serial number is? They say to input the serial number of the "product" that you are asking about. Since my problem is how to deauthorize/authorize computers, and they are saying I have more than 5 (which I have never owned more than 5 computers in my life), I can't imagine what serial number they mean. Does it mean your desktop computer? If so, which one? Do they mean your device? LIke your iPhone, iPod or whatever? Do they mean the software ON one of your computers and/or devices? If so, which program, and on which computer/device?
We have three operational computers, one does not have iTunes on it. Since Apple is saying I have more than 5 authorized computers, and I can't imagine what they are, I am afraid to deauthorize all my computers. See what I mean? I just wanted to ask the question about how I can find out WHICH computers Apple thinks I have authorized, so I can decide if it's safe to deauthorize them all or not. I only know of 2 computers that have iTunes on them, so how can there be 5? We also have 2 iPhones and 2 iPods in this family, but one of the iPhones has his own apple id. He may have been using mine, since his computer died. I read that those don't count as "computers" to the 5. Do they, then?
Help! I can't contact apple because I have no idea what they mean about serial number. I doubt they would help me anyway. In order to get the serial number off my desktop computer (that has iTunes on it already), I will have to move furniture, so I don't want to if that's not it. Is there some way to find the serial number in the software, either on my desktop or my iPhone?

You could have more 5 computers authorized if you ever, for example, reformatted a hard drive or replaced a hard drive without deauthorizing the computer first. Apple's system would see that as a different computer, even though you don't. There's nothing to be afraid of in deauthorizing everything and the reauthorizing what you actually have. You won't lose any data. Mistimp is correct, they can't tell you which computers are authorized.

Changing quality level on cancellation of a GR

Hello,I need help.
I have a dynamic modification rule on lot creation and at characteristic level.
At level one of the dynamic modification rule I have inspection for the characteristic and if the result is correct I donu2019t want to inspect it another time until 6 months later.So, the level two is an skip level.
But I have a problem. When I make the first GR and the first lot is created with quality level register . If for some reason I have to cancel this GR and this cause at the same time the inspection lot cancellation, the level quality remains on level 2 which is on skip and not return to level one till 6 months later.
Do you know if there is something I'm not doing well?. Is just the system that works in this way?
Thanks in advance,

Problem is solved. For future reference, I use
Say, start_id is the root or they node you want to start,
Select level
FROM table
START WITH PRIOR node_id = start_id
CONNECT BY node_id = parent_node_id
This will show all the children under start_id.

Reset Date in Quality Level / DMR.

Business Requirement = Vendor Annual Certification. All batches received by the vendor during the year goes through minimal inspection and on the 365th day (reset period (days) in DMR) it changes to the initial stage of the DMR.
However, the reset date field in the Quality level screen resets itself on the basis of the "date of last Inspection" field in the same screen. This field changes every time a UD or MIGO is executed. Therefore, the true 365th day is never reached and so the quality level never resets to the original stage.
I'd like to change the functionality of the reset date in the Quality Level screen to reset after the yearly requalification sample (to conform to the reset period in the DMR), as opposed to after every inspection UD/MIGO. The reset date should "reset" after the initial inspection stage (in the DMR) is completed.
Is there a way to do this through config or a user exit, or something else? Thanks in advance,

To fulfill this requirement created DMR as following:
Stage -1: InspeServ-4, Skip - Blank, Ist - Select check box, Stc - select, No of insp - 1, Next stage -2, reject -1, Nect -Stage 2.
Stage 2: InspServ - blank, Skip - select check box, Ist - skip, Max. skip duration - 365, next - stage 1, reject - 1, next - stage 1.
Hope this would help you.
Thanks!!!

Concentrator syslog message identifiers - Do they mean anything?

Hi,
Got a 3020 running 4.1.7E and when logging to syslog I'm getting 'words' such as %IKE-5-119 or %AUTH-6-41
Going on my Pix logs, when I get something after the the time/date and preceded by a % (such as %PIX-6-302015) it means something I can look up.
I have searched cisco and google in vain for these VPN Concentrator syslog msg identifiers.
If they don't mean anything why are they there? They aren't random as the same type of message has the same identifier.
Pls can someone put my mind to rest on this one.

will the card work on my mac???
If not what are my other options as I have not so great NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT 256MB

It is only when you get to the bottom, and that you want to PLAY GAMES that it is possible to answer.
Having 7300GT is worthless, unless to use 3rd monitor.
Only Windows has better Nvidia graphics and drivers for games. And if you run Windows, you can use PC card and leave the 7300GT for OS X alone.

Quality level

Hi,
We are migrating QM related master data from 4.6C to ECC6. We have loaded inspection plan. Please let me know the importatnt fields that we have to check in inspection plan.
When we try to load quality level, it gives an error stating inspection plan for inspection lot does not exist. At material master level, inspection type has dyn modification rule.
The quality level created when GR is done. Please tell me quality level belong to master data . If so how we can load the quality level.
Thanks
Rajkumar

Till date the quality level is being created without DMR, inspection point and sampling drawing procedure.
From your reply i have understood the following. if my assumption wrong, please tell me.
1. As per your suggetion, copying the quality level from one system to another is not possible
2. If loaded, then DMR to be load in inspection plan creation and create quality level with initial stages. Then change the go to QDL2 and change the skip status.
If skip status is updated in QDL2, then what will happen to usage decision, lot created and other sctivities table entry in old system. or once updated, system will automatically create the necessary entries.
Please clarify.
Thanks

Quality level maintenance

Hi,
We had initially three plants .For all those plants quality level is maintained for quality managed materials.
But these quality levels having no task list type, task list group and group counter.
I analyzed and found these are created automatically by system when inspection lot is created provided these (quality managed materials) materials should have dynamic rule defined for the inspection type.
Our problem is system is creating these quality levels not in the first instance i.e. it is creating the quality level while creating inspection lot for the second attempt.
I have following queries.
1) what is the use of quality level in inspection lot creation .
2) How the standard settings, if the quality level is created manually to trigger the quality level at first attempt?
3) As I have explained earlier we are creating new plant, if we need to upload cutover data for quality level?
If we do not what will happen? If we need to, then how?
Regards
Dina

Hi,
Quality Level: Def: The quality level is a data record that the system automatically updates at the time of dynamic modification (at lot creation or when the usage decision is made), by checking the conditions for an inspection stage change and, if necessary, storing a new inspection stage for the next inspection.
The information in the quality level determines which inspection stage will be used for the sample determination of the next inspection lot. So, Quality Level works in conjunction with DMR.
1) what is the use of quality level in inspection lot creation .
Quality Level is only for changing Inspection Severity: Reduced-Notma-Tightened Inspections. Because DMR deals with skip lots/char, it keeps changing the Quality level, based on the settings you made in DMR. AQL depends on your industry requirements and is only useful for accepting/rejecting a lot.
2) How the standard settings, if the quality level is created manually to trigger the quality level at first attempt?
In Standard Settings, Quality Level initially is generally set to Normal Inspn. Based on DMR, it changes immediately upon UD. Quality Level can be created using the t-code QDL1, as above. You can change the next inspection severity manually in QDL2.
+3) As I have explained earlier we are creating new plant, if we need to upload cutover data for quality level?
If we do not what will happen? If we need to, then how?+
To start with, you don't have to define any Quality level. However, for DMR, you need to set-up the stages (severities) of inspection. That will ensure that Quality Levels are automatically updaed. Regards, KrishnaM

Well, after another call with Apple support and the engineers, no success. After spending over 20 hours trying to debug this, I give up. Apple was basically fishing for a solution with trial-and-error settings on the iphone. Then they wanted me to plug in software to log my iphone connections to the router, etc, etc., etc., at which point I decided I no longer wanted to participate in their testing process and will simply return the router.
25 hours of my life I'll never get back.
Big bummer, and frustrating for all the obvious reasons.

Quality score & quality level

Hi Experts,
Can anybody please help.New comer in QM.Please help.
How system calculate Quality score & quality level.What setting required for it. And where it is use. Please do not suggest sap library or F1 help.Please help.

hi
Evaluation of Quality Levels
You can use this function to can select quality levels, display the selected quality levels in a list, reset or tighten selected quality levels, display the data and dynamic modification rules for selected quality level records, and display the dynamic modification history for quality levels as a graphic or in a list.
Quality levels that have been deleted can no longer be evaluated (that is, you can no longer obtain a dynamic modification history of the inspection lots that were included in these quality levels).
If the system finds more than one quality level record for the selection conditions, it switches to a dynamic selection list that contains all quality levels that meet the selection conditions.
If only one quality level exists for the selection criteria, the system switches directly to the dynamic modification history list for the corresponding quality level. The dynamic selection list appears by choosing Goto ® Back. You can make changes in this list. There are the following functions in the dynamic selection list:
In the transaction Edit list (menu path: Logistics --> Quality management --> Quality inspection -->Quality level -->Edit list)
Creating a Quality Level Manually
Use
In most cases, you will not need to create a quality level manually. However, if you are implementing the Quality Management (QM) application component for the first time, you may want to enter data for the quality levels recorded in your previous system.
Prerequisites
You can only create a quality level manually for lot-based dynamic modification.
Procedure
Choose Logistics -->Quality management --> Quality inspection --> Quality level --> Create.
Enter the necessary data on the initial screen for creating a quality level and choose Quality level.
You define the dynamic modification criteria (material, vendor, manufacturer, or customer) and the inspection plan for which the quality level will be maintained on the initial screen.
Enter the following data on the screen for creating quality levels:
Next inspection stage
Number of inspections or inspection lots that (based on the dynamic modification valuation) have been completed since the last inspection stage change or were accepted without an inspection (skip)
Number of inspections or inspection lots (based on the dynamic modification valuation) that were rejected since the last inspection stage change
Reset date on which the quality level again uses the initial inspection stage (specified in the dynamic modification rule) as the current inspection stage
Earliest possible deletion date for the quality level
The system makes entries in all other fields if:
An inspection lot is created.
A usage decision is made.
Save your data.
The initial screen for creating a quality level appears and the system informs you that the quality level was created.

How many TOP are in APPS and what they mean........

Dear All
One very basic question, how many TOPs are there in APPS, middle tier and db tier, and what does they mean, like we have APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP, etc.......
regards

how many TOPs are there in APPSNo specific answer since it differs from release to release. Oracle Apps 11i installation comes with many TOPs defined (e.g. APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP, FND_TOP, AU_TOP, ..etc).
and what does they mean, like we have APPL_TOP, COMMON_TOP, etcSimply, they are environment variables.
Let us say ..
You have installed the APPL_TOP under /u01/oracle (e.g. /u01/oracle/prodappl)
and,
I have installed it under /u02/oracle (e.g. /u02/oracle/prodappl).
When we both issue "echo $APPL_TOP":
You would get:
$ echo $APPL_TOP -- On Windows, type %APPL_TOP%
/u01/oracle/prodapplAnd, I would get:
$ echo $APPL_TOP -- On Windows, type %APPL_TOP%
/u02/oracle/prodappl

Quality level not updated

Hi QM Gurus,
I am facing problem in quality level updation through Dynamic Modification rule.
Setup:
Plant level setting - Inspection lot completion - Skip lot and automatic UD time as
1 minute.
Material master - skips allowed and automatic ud masked for inspection type 01-Goods Receipt
Dynamic modification rule created as 1st inspection stage - one lot needs to be inspected. 2nd inspection stage = two lots to be skipped. then again stage go to 1st stage.(Rule is at usage decision level)
I have assigned the same Dynamic modification rule in inspection plan for respective material.
While doing goods receipt (MIGO), first lot comes to inspection stock and 2nd and 3rd lot is skip lot. after 4th lot should come to inspection stock,but it is still skip the inspection.
When i check Quality level for material "Inspection since change" field is not updating based on the DMR. Suppose 1 inspection completed in Skip stage, but the insp. since change is showing 0 only in the display quality level transaction QDL3.
Please suggest some solution for this.
thanks and regards
