Compressing PAL HD to MPEG4 turns "skinny" picture

I am trying to Compress a PAL HD 720x576, Compressor: H 264, Pixel Aspect: PAL - CCIR 601, Field dominance: Upper (Odd) to PAL Low Res (MPEG4).
I followed previous advice to use Geometry in Inspector: with .75 Pixel Aspect Ratio, specifying 16.9 dimension. And I end up with a skinny image.
How can I get a 16.9 aspect ratio please, at the same time as I'm compressing to Low Res? Thank you for your help.

Dear Nick, the advice of selecting Pixel Ratio .75 and Ratio 16.9 in Compressor > Inspector > Geometry > was given to me on the Forum. Would you know of a place (tutorial, paper...etc) which gives the different Ratios for 4.3 & 16.9 in NTSC and PAL? Where could I acquire that knowledge? I'd be most grateful for a direction. Many thanks.

I can't turn off picture frame by using the settings passcode...the button won't turn it off.

I can't turn off picture frame on the lock screen. The button accessed through settings won't let me turn it off. How do I do this? Thanks.

You can only turn off Picture Frame if you have a passcode lock set on the iPad - if you don't have a passcode lock then the on/off slider is protected

If I turned off picture backup on iPhone, is it possible to restore the pictures saved before the settings change?

Hi,
Anyone know if iCloud keeps older backups?
If I turned off picture backup on iPhone, is it possible to restore the pictures saved before the settings change?
Thanks.

No. but restoring from backup will if hey are in a backup
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

Turn off picture or alternate browser???

I have a limited data plan, is there a way to turn off pictures or perhaps a 3rd party web browser for WebOS that allows this? thanks

No and probably.

How to turn off picture frame without enabling pass code?

Any advice?
Thanks.

I've tried it and I don't think you can - I've tried turning passcode 'on', picture frame 'off', and then turning passcode 'off', but it then still appears on the lock screen.

ACE issue with compression when SSL Initiation is turned on?

We currently doing an evaluation of the Cisco ACE 4710 and have some sites where the backend is Tomcat and SSL is turned on. When we set Default L7 Load-Balancing Action to Load Balance with Compression Method Deflate (I haven't tried gzip yet), requests to these sites return badly mangled stuff. Like a gif image at 7,700 bytes comes back as a 7 bytes file, even default should only try compression on text/*.
Has anyone seen a similar issue?

It turned out the problem was a configuration issue and my understanding of the ACE works with compression, policies, etc.
In conjunction with this I seemed to have found a bug in the GUI, which is also still present in A3 (2.3). I now have a default L7 policy which just set SSL Initiation to ssl client. Added another L7 policy but when looking at the virtual server afterwards the GUI doesn't show that policy.

Iphoto turns my pictures very dark

for some reason when i use Iphoto to import picture from my camera it changes all the pictures to a darker setting. I have an E-volt 500 olympus camera and i can import photos into another program fine and the quality stays the same as i would expect but when i use Iphoto all the picture turn out a few shades darker. Is there a reason for this and if so how do i correct it. Is there a way to edit multiple picture at one time so i can just change them all?
Thanks

Just turning on at option is not enough for those photos already in the library. Export one of the dark ones and then reimport. See if that will lighten up your photos. Also you might have to calibrate your monitor. Since Apple uses the sRGB profile for all of their services and that profile is used more most web use,you might set your monitor to that profile and see if helps.
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.

Workflow for editing HD PAL .m2ts and .mpeg4 on Final Cut

I have PAL HD files in two formats (.m2ts and .mpeg4) from 2 cameras of the same event. These files need to be converted to a mutually compatible format to edit in Final Cut (Studio 2). I would appreciate knowledgeable recommendations on a work flow, including the best converter(s) to use.

I could not load either file format into MPEG-Streamclip. Do you think there is any better media converter than the VoltaicHD? I am trying it out and it is the best I have seen. Clean and the controls for the Quicktime .mov file out. Although, when I play output clips set to digitize at 25 frames, they are all reported as 29.97 -- is this a bug?

Import of 16:9 PAL Clips to iDVD turn into 3:4

16:9 PAL clips are well edited by fce and exported as quicktime movie are played well as 16:9 by finder. But when i import them to iDVD they will be played as 4:3 ><. Some clips failed, some are working well. If i have found a clip which does not turn into 4:3 ,it may not be changed. For example: Changing the audio-level may cause the same result. It changes into 4:3 when played by iDVD.
Who has got same experiences ? Are there possibilities to avoid this ?

IPhoto destructively turned all pictures with faces into thumbnails

I just noticed a gigantic problem with my iPhoto library. Images taken with multiple 5MP+ cameras all were destructively converted in the iPhoto library. The pattern I detected is that every photo with a face detected in it by iPhoto had its original picture turned into a 0.3MP thumbnail and the original sized picture is lost. Even if I go into ~/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library/Masters have been reduced in size. Of all my pictures in the last ~10 years that I used iPhoto to solely manage, none that has a face in it has been spared.
What is going on? Why would Apple ever want to destructively modify original imports?

No - it has nothin to do with Aperture and iPhtoo sharing the same library
the next thing to do is
Connect the two Macs together (network, firewire target mode, etc) or use an external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity from the old Mac to the pictures folder of the new Mac - launch iPhoto on the new mac and it will open the library and convert it as needed and you will be ready move forward.
It is very likely that you did not do this but that you imported the old liberary - NEVER import an iPhoto library into another iPhoto library - but even if you did it correctly something went wrong and you need to redo it

How do I turn still pictures into a movie?

I have CS5 web and Lightroom 3. I'm trying to create a movie/video from a group of 500-1000 still photos that I took with my camera. I set my camera up to take a picture every few seconds and I would like to make it into a movie format to were it would show 2 or more pictures per second or how ever many per sec. And I'd like to add music to it. I don't know what program to begin in or if it's even something I can do with any of the programs I have.
Does anyone know what programs can help me create this video? And how I would go about do this?

Nothing you already have. This requires After Effects, Premiere Pro or something similar.

How can I turn a picture black and white and keep some objects in color?

I have seen some pictures that are black and white, and a few objects (flowers, dresses, hair bows, etc) were in their original color. I was told you could do it with Photoshop, but I cannot figure out how. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

The easiest way to do this (and there are lots of ways) is to create a hue/saturation adjustment layer above your base image. In the dialogue box, push the saturation slider all the way to the left. This will make what you see monochrome. Now select a brush and click on the layer mask next to the layer you just created. When you paint on the mask in black, you will block the desaturation effect of the layer and reveal the original color on the layer below. Paint in white to reverse this effect.

BOBI 4.x Webi - Graphs when exported to Excel, turns as picture.

Hello,
In SAP BO XI 3.x version, a Webi document having graphs, when exported to Excel sheet, the graphs are exported as they are and were able to modify them. However, in SAP BO BI 4.x version, the graphs are exported as picture and are not able modify them.
I tried with multiple 4.x versions even with 4.1 SP4, but its still the same.
Is this by design that the Chart\Graph engine saves them as picture in 4.x or there are some settings that need to be done?
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards,
Abhay

Hello Abhay,
As you suspected, the functionality to add webi chart as excel chart while exporting has been changed in BO 4.x version. Please see below idea page where developers like us asking to restore the same functionality. The idea is under review now. Cast a vote for the idea.

Gatekeeper is blocking zips of graphics. I've turned Gatekeeper to All, but it's still turning the pictures to mush.

So I go to my favorite source for graphics. They have a download button for downloading all of the pictures in the set. I un-archive the zip file and I see a folder with grey "exec" icons. ***! Photoshop thinks it's a Unix file, not a jpg.
Could it be the web site has screwed something up, or is it Apple's Mountain Lion?

This doesn't sound like it has anything to do with Gatekeeper. Gatekeeper simply prevents certain kinds of apps from opening. You should set Gatekeeper back to the default (middle) setting for the best balance of safety and flexibility.
What is the extension at the end of the problem files' names? Is it .jpg or .jpeg, or is it something else, or is it missing entirely? (Note that you may need to select the file and choose File -> Get Info in order to see the full filename with the extension, as extensions can be hidden.)
