Does the DVD mpg2 encode setting automatically re-encode mpg2 files?

I am running DVD Studio Pro 3. I have also encoded my video to mpg2 (using quicktime) before import. Will DVD Studio Pro 3 re-encode the video if I set the encode preferences lower than the original mpg2 files? I want to test lower bitrates. If I can just change the encode setting in DVD Studio Pro and set it to encode upon build, it would be much easier than individually recompressing all of the imported files. This would be a great timesaver to test lower bitrates.
Thanks.

No -it doesn't work that way, I'm afraid. It only encodes what needs to be encoded and if you have already got your assets as MPEG2 it won't unencode them and re-encode at a lower rate.
You'll need to encode them yourself - you might like to take a single short sequence (ten seconds) and encode that at different rates in order to create your tests.

    >does the retail / upgrade boxed set contain the update?
    I very much doubt it - the boxed sets are always done in a large run, and a repress for an update is unlikely. Anyway, it's easy to tell; if you install the boxed product and it says 3.0.1 then it will be. But as I said, I rather doubt it...

  • Why does the same RGB color appear lighter in one ai file and darker in another?

    Why does the same RGB color appear lighter in one ai file and darker in another??  I want to use the more vibrant color, but when I try to reproduce the same RGB color code in another Adobe Illustrator (ai) file, it shows up darker.  I printed the two files out, and you can see the difference in the print too.  I exported the color orginally as an eps file from an ArcGIS map.
    Any insight is greatly appreciated!
    Anne

    You illustrator files may have different color profiles attached.
    Set to show your color profile in the bottom left of each document by using the flyout menu >> show >> document color profile
    Then you can use edit >> assign profile to get them the same
    Yours are quite far off for RGB (which are usually close to each other for many profile due to wide gamut).  I question as Jacob did if one of your documents are in CMYK mode. Look in parenthesis after the document name at top of window.
    Check if view > proof setup is the same (do not use the uncoated profile as in my screenshot, that was only there cause of my testing)
    Make sure view >> proofs colors is checked or unchecked for both.
    To get them to print the same, check these settings are the same
    Sorry for all the screenshots, but hopefully one day we will see Adobe's complex color management united all in one window.

  • How does the communication will happened between SOA-Composer(where DVM file resides) and EM console (Where composite resides)?

    How does the communication will happened between SOA-Composer(where DVM file resides) and EM console (Where composite resides)?
    And also i would like to how A business rule(Which will be resides in SOA_COMPOSER) will be communicated to Soa Composite(Resides in EM Console)?

    whenever you deploy a new composite it gets stored in the MDS data
    store, i.e. the metadata service and not the dehydration store (the
    SOAINFRA database).
    Composer works directly with the MDS schema.
    EM reads the same schema (MDS) to see what composite are deployed on the
    partitions.
    All runtime instance data is stored in the SOAINFRA database.
    Hope this helps,

  • Why does the tab order I set change when I enable usage rights?

    I am using Adobe Pro 9.1.2 - set the tab order manually in a 4 page document - test everything - works great.  Then, I enable usage rights, go back into the document to test, and the tabbing is out of order again.  I have done this multiple times and what should have been a simple task is now taking hours to complete.  Help!!!  This didn't happen until I upgraded to this version.

    Helvetica Neu 10 pt is the default text style for Numbers tables.
    Setting a different style to one, some, or all cells does not make that different style the 'default.' Here's an example of the effects of three different sets of actions. All cells in the table had been set to display text as Jazz LET, 12 pt. The original content of B3, C3, and D3 was the same as is shown in C4. For each of the cells in row 3, the procedure described below was carried out, then the text shown was typed into the cell.
    When you Select a cell, then "Cut" the cell, the cut includes the text AND any style that has been set for that cell, and the cell reverts to the default style. See cell B3 in the example.
    If you Select the cell, Copy, then press delete, the text (and style) are copied, the content (text), but not the style, is deleted. See C3.
    If you click on the cell to select it, click again to place the insertion point in the cell (to edit the text), then Select the text and press delete (or Cut), then the text is removed from the cell, but the style remains. See D3.

  • What does the engineer do to set up BT Infinity?

    Hi,
    I have to be at work when the engineer comes to set up my BT inifnity (I currently have normal BT broadband) so my Mum has offered to sit in my house.
    What do they actually do? I've always set up my own internet before, never needed an engineer.
    Do they need access to my laptop or are they simply fiddling with sockets etc?  I'm pretty sure I could set it up myself on my computer as long as the sockets and the line is working and I don't want an engineer on my laptop without me being there?
    Thanks

    Hi
    It looks from your comments, as if you have not looked at the BT web site to see the basics of what is required for Infinity.
    Please don't take this as a critism, it's a fact a lot of posters ask questions on the forum without carrying out any research.
    I have attached a drawing that was for a query a few months ago that cover many of the requirements - please appreciate that I do not work for BT, this sketch has not been approved by BT and you use the information from it at your own risk.
    Good Luck

  • Why does the DVD-Player integrated in FrontRow not play DolbyDigital?

    Hy there,
    I have a problem, When I'm using the normal DVD-Player of MacOsX to play a DVD with DolbyDigital 5.1, my Macbook is sending via optical out a 5.1 Stream to the receiver. But when I'm using FrontRow, unfortunately there's only pcm put out to my receiver. Will this be changed in a future version of FrontRow? Perhaps in Leopard? The problem is, that the sound is much better putting out 5.1 than pcm. Or is there acutally any solution available to make FrontRow play DVDs like the original DVD-Player?
    Thanks so far.
    Best regards
    CubaMAN
    Macbook   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    I'm usually using my Core Duo iMac now. I haven't used Front Row to play a DVD for a little while, as now I've plugged the iMac into the HDTV and you can't play Front Row on a second display, only the main display. So, for the past couple of months I've been using the DVD Player program. It's possible a system update or QuickTime update has changed the way it works. I'll have to try an experiment when I'm home later.

  • Why does the DVD player say "supported disc not available?"

    So, regular DVDs will play and are recognized on my Macbook Pro, but I'm trying to play a recordings DVD (for a music literature class) and the DVD player says "supported disc not available." The DVD is supposed to work on my operating system since it's the newest one, but I don't know how to fix the problem! Please help!
    Thanks!

    I'm having the same problem lately.  I have a mid 2010 21.5" iMac with an internal SuperDrive running Yosemite.  I tried putting in "Dawn of the Planet of the Apes" and "The Giver" rented from RedBox.  Both spin sputter for a bit and then eject the disk back out.  So, it never mounts and no software (Finder, Disk Utility, DVD Player) ever gets a chance to see it.  Both play fine in a 15 year old DVD player, and my purchased copy of "The Dark Knight" mounts just fine in the iMac.  So, I have to assume that something is being done to the DVD's that rental companies are given to prevent them from mounting or something.
    Not having any luck on Google trying to confirm that.
    I guess I need to amend this.  Both DVD's play fine in a early 2011 13" Macbook Pro with the internal SuperDrive.  It's running Mavericks still and has a "MATSHITA DVD-R UJ-8A8".  The iMac has a "OPTIARC DVD RW AD-5680H".  Not sure if it's the drive, the OS, or what (although I will say I'm fairly certain I was having this problem on the iMac before Yosemite, so it's probably not the OS).

  • How do I link to a file located on the DVD so that it automatically opens?

  • Getting the average of a set of numbers, confused by file IO, please help!

    What i need to do is get the average of a set of numbers, the problem is that i am reading these numbers in from files in different directories where each file returns a number, and the average for the directory is the numbers for each file in that directory added together and divided by the number of files in that directory.
    public static HashMap readDir(File path, HashMap map) throws IOException{
            File files[] = path.listFiles();
            float totalForDirectory = 0;
             int common = 0;
             int count = 0;
                    if(files != null && files.length > 0) {
                              for(int i=0; i<files.length; i++) {
                                    if(files.isDirectory()) {
    readDir(files[i], map);
    } else {
    //trying to count the number of files in the directory
    count++;
    totalForDirectory =(total(common, totalF1(), totalF2(files[i])));
    readFile(files[i]);
    //will contain pathname, and the average
    map.put(path.getCanonicalPath(), totalForDirectory);
    return map;
    In the above code, totalForDirectory contains the number for each file, i want to add together the result of this variable for each file, "file[i]" in the directory, and divide that by the number of files in that directory.
    Id appreciate any help
    Thanks

    What you want, It seems to me, is a recursive routine (for directories) which returns both a total and a filecount. Then these can be totalled at each level (togther with the count for each file).
    Probably the best approach is to pass a small object in which the totals are accumulated.
    Define a class something like:
    public class Accumulator {
       int count;
       int total;
       public double mean() {
          return total / count;
      public void add(Accumulator add) {
         count += add.count;
         total += add.total;
       public void add(int numberFromFile) {
          count++;
         total += numberFromFile();
      }Create an instance of this at the start of your scan directory method, and pass it when you call make the recursion. At the end of the scan the method would use the first add method to add it's local totals to the hight level total.
    Obviously you create an Accumulator for the first scan directory call which becomes the grand total.
