Compressor taking about an hour per minute of video

Hi, I've been trying for a week now to get my 1 hour 42 minute HD video to compress for a DVD. I've tried a bunch of different settings and I finally got one that works good. But it's taking about 1 hour for every minute of video that it's compressing and I'm trying to have DVDs made by this Saturday. All of the other setting that I've tried so far have taken days at a time, then failed with only a few hours left. Does anybody know of any faster way of doing this without losing quality?
I'm using a macbook pro, the video is AVCHD 1920 X 1080 using AIC. I'm using MPEG-2 with 2 pass VBR, all frame controls on "Better" in Compressor. I like the quality (I tried a 7 minute clip of it already) and I want these DVDs to be at least that quality, but it doesn't seem like it should be taking so long.
Thanks,
Lisa

Lisa,
you're on a MBP si there really isn't a lot you can do but reduce quality. You have only two cores. I'm hesitant to reccomend that you setup a cluster in qmaster. You'd be using all your cores. I'd want you to have at least one gig of free memory for each core, and I don't know how many you have. On the bigger multicore machines we'd assign 50-75% of the cores to the cluster assuming plenty of ram. Your drives aren't helping but at this point it's processing power rather than drive speed. You could try disomnia from digitalrebellion.com to keep them awake, and set your energy settings panel to prevent drives from sleeping

My battery life at a full 100% charge is about 2 hours 22 minutes (backlight and key lights at lowest level). Should I go complaining to Apple or do I just need different software?

My battery life at a full 100% charge is about 2 hours 22 minutes (backlight and key lights at lowest level). Should I go complaining to Apple or do I just need different software? I've only had my mac book since August 2011. The battery dies in 2 to 3 hours with some web surfing (little video play) and photo editing etc. I really don't feel like taking my computer all the way to the apple store to wait there for 5 hours to hear that I need to call someone blah blah blah. Any advice? (BTW Safari hasn't been working since I last updated my mac, WHYYYY?)

(SPAM) getting about 100 connections per minute

Hi guys:
lately my mail server is getting jammed with requests to send email to [email protected] They necer stop and the requests come from all over the world. I cannot find any information by doing a google search.
Has anyone experianced anything like this? None of the mail goes trough but I am sure makes my mail server much slower

the account does not really exist on my server. I created the account after seing so many request just to see what's the msg content. here are some headers. mind you the requests are coming from EVERYWHERE so this is not an attack from an infected computer. I am just getting the bounced msgs. Every bounced msg is addressed to the same email but with a different name. The spam in question is a stock (EGLY) and a bunch of them with subject "Hi, NAME here!"
the bounced msgs are arriving from the right IP (per example email addressed to yahoo arrives from yahoo's mx ip)

How Many MB/GB per Minute of Video?

I'm trying to decide which iPhone 5S to purchase 32gb or 64gb. Since there's been a few more improvements, since the 4S, I'll be depending on this more to shoot videos of my kids while vacationing, sports, etc. with maybe no place to upload.
Is there a standard, for this quality of video, of how many MB or GB it equals to in minutes and/or hours?
Thanks

Compressor taking excessive time...please help

I'm having terrible trouble with compressor taking forever. i'm editing a wedding video that i shot in HD widescreen. I've edit in FC rendered the movie and then exported as self contained Quick time movie. using current settings (HD)
i then open the movie in compressor my target setting are DVD Best quality 90min
i havent edited any other setting because i've use the best quality settings before without much complication (the other movies 40 min took 14 hours to compress) I had resigned myself to the long compression time but the times i'm getting at the moment are getting out of hand.
for 50 min movie i'm currently getting 26 hours and climbing! the time goes up and down at one point it quoted 230 hours and most regular time is 56. this is actually starting to depress me I traweled through the net and forums with no resulotion.
I've bosted my core as suggested here
http://www.kenstone.net/discussions/read.php?3,11317,11321#msg-11321
my client is expecting they video tomorrow ...can anyone make any suggestions i'd be very greatfull
thanks a very depressed

I found this article from Larry Jordan, about half way down, there is talk of using single pass for shorter projects of 60 min or less.
http://www.larryjordan.biz/articles/ljbitrate.html
Your time does seem to be taking quite a while. I used to do a 90 minute movie, with a 2 pass setting, and the Better setting, and it would take about 36 hours sometimes.
I think part of it is the G5 processor you have. Now that I have an Intel Mac Pro with the dual quad cores, the Compression time takes juts a few hours, 3, maybe 4 at the most.
All I can say, is maybe try a single pass with the better setting and see what the time looks like. It might be acceptable. OR try a 2 pass with the better setting. From all I have read, the BEST setting takes an extraordinary long time, and it's not a huge amount better than BETTER. I use it simply because the machine is fast enough to make use of it.

Slow (no more than 7 per minute) sent emails in a status update for many situation

We have a new Exchange 2010 system and the need of nightly status for a large number of customers.
Initially, I simply increased the number of mails the involved email accounts could send and that allowed them to deliver.
The problem then was/is that they are still limited to about 7 mails per minute.
At this stage I increased the connection throttling from 20 to 2000, though the average of 7/min is still the norm.
Here are commands I used for throttling increase:
New-ThrottlingPolicy -name 2000EmailMaxConcurr -RCAMaxConcurrency 2000
Set-Mailbox address1 -ThrottlingPolicy 2000EmailMaxConcurr
Set-Mailbox address2 -ThrottlingPolicy 2000EmailMaxConcurr
have read of other efforts, but though assistance rather then cluttered rule implementation was in order.
Anyone have a similar issue and solution?
In my last mass mailing instance, a 2003 installation, I do not recall having to alter the default to allow more than 7 emails per minute from an address.
Thank you in advance for any assistance-
Stuart

Ed,

the appropriate email addresses.

Serve 500 users per minute?

Hi,
Currently I'm looking for a solution to provide a high
performing Flash Video player. This should be a streaming video
solution to serve about 500 users per minute.
Can anybody tell me if this is possible with Flash Media
Interactive Server or Streaming Server?
Next to that, clustering... as far as I know now, the
Interactive Server is the product that can do this and it's called
origin/edge. Is this correct?
Hopefully you can help me
Thanks in advance!
E.!

If I were you, Flash Media Interactive Server is what I would
have gone for, the reason it is scalable(it supports clustering) to
meet or exceed the 500 users /minute requirement. FMSS doesn't
support clustering.
Edge/origin is the typical way to scale up FMS for Live as
well as VOD usage.
However, for live stream distribution, there is another great
feature of FMS i.e. multipoint publish; which lets one FMS to
distribute its live stream to many FMS. I believe, It's worth a
try.
I hope this helps.

4 hours 30 minutes - watching YouTube, Surfing Internet, Making phone calls

Hello -
I love my iPhone, and didn't really think I had a problem with the battery until I started reading other posts.
My battery was fully charged for today, and watched many YouTube videos, listened to some music, surfed the web on both WiFi and EDGE and received about 4 hours 20 minutes until the 20% warning came on my phone.
Is this normal? My standby time was over 10 hours.
Please respond...thank you!

iPhone offers up to 8 hours of talk time,6 hours of Internet use,7 hours of video playback,or 24 hours of audio playback on a full charge at original capacity. In addition, iPhone features up to 250 hours of standby time.
http://www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html
Of course, if you mix it all up (Wifi is not mentioned, just internet use), your mileage may vary. You would probably be pushing 5 hours until your phone died. Seems a bit low. Do a full charge, and try ONE of these things (like video playback only in Airplane mode) to see if you get anywhere near 7 hours.

As we were instructed I attempted to download the new Adobe Cloud to replace Adobe CS6 as it is about to expire. It had been downloading for about an hour when I lost power due to a storm. It was only off 20 minutes. When it came back up it had stopped because my internet of course was also off. Now I have tried to do it again and it tells me “that number has already been approved and uploaded” However, it has not because I do not have the cloud programs yet. I still have my CS6 but I am not sure what to do from here. Can you assist with this please?

After admittedly only a quick read the one thing you don't say is how you are trying to make this move. Most people with moving library issues do it the wrong way. Plenty of web sites tell you how to do it the wrong way.
If the iTunes application is started before the drive with the library is fully mounted and awake iTunes will revert back to the internal drive.

Hey Andrew keriakous,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like your iPhone may be in recovery-mode. To resolve this issue, see the following:

Random audio interruptions. I'm getting audio snippets, no more than a word or syllable, about 20 times per hour. Emanates from Mac internal speakers. Started after upgrading to OS 10.9.5. What is it? How can I stop it?

Hello Achates:
I did not read the rather long post. If you wish to reinstall OS X 10.4, use your software install DVD. Backup is essential. To minimize your risk, I would use an archive and install:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
In that way, you will have a fresh copy of OS X and your current settings will be preserved.
Incidentally, I do not agree that the printer problem is best solved by reinstalling OS X. I have had HP printers for sometime and, on one occasion, had difficulty after an upgrade. HP technical support walked me through uninstalling all traces of the HP driver and then reinstalling.

Why is it taking forever to transfer tunes from itunes to my ipod classic, I have over 6500 to copy and the current rate is 2 tunes per minute

I am just copying tunes from itunes to my ipod classic, there are 6675 to copy and the present rate of transfer is 2 tunes per minute, which means that it will take over 55 hours at this rate,
This has never happened before previously it took next to no time so what is happening?

That show that your original library is damaged and needs to be repaired. Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
2 - run Option #4 to rebuild the database.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button and select the library you want to add in the selection window..
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Thunderbird taking 4 hours per message

I know this is a bit wierd but when using Thunderbird as my email client it can take an average of 4 hours to deliver an email. They appear to be sent OK and eventualy they are delivered but it takes about 4 hours. The same emails sent from BTYahoo or Live Mail are delivered promptly. I have checked all the setting and even re-set up the accounts according to BT's instructions but no improvement. Any ideas

i left the ipod connected for 24 hours and still the same this, i freezes on 2 of 38 slots. i was able to sync to of my other classic 160 earlier last week, but this one just freezes. i tried to sync the ipod with my mac mini but is does not recognize this ipod as a device associated with my itunes and wants to whipe it clean, however i have not seen people having sucusess with this method either. yes, i do use the cloud, i use my mini for uploading my cds and my windows 7 laptop for syncing the ipods...it is just easier to use it that way as i can easily sync my ipods while at work. Fwiw, i do not like the new itunes, i miss the list view, when you have over 200gig of music in itunes and still have 80% of my cd collection to add in (and i must use cds as itunes down loading does not support lossless files, which does sound much different to the compressed files to my ears) it teekes forever to scroll through it. i also do not like how auto eject seems to have dissapeard from the apple version of itunes, so when i add a cd there it does not eject it, i keep having to go to the screen and hit the eject...it is what it is i guess, but it is still buggy.
