DVD from HD720 is extremely pixelated- Please Help
Hi
I've shot a project with HD (HM171 on a P2 Card) and edited as DVCPRO HD 720
I've made the film as a multi image (3 layers/images on one screen) and tried exporting to DVD Studio Pro on a number of formats but all results are very heavily pixelated. (3 layers each at 27% size)
There is a major amount of jagged edges and blockiness to the images and I don't know how to fix this.
I've exported a normal single channel/single image piece at normal size and it's looked ok.
The settings I've used are to let DVD Studio Pro encode in SD settings by creating a quicktime export using the current FCP sequence settings.
I've also encoded through compressor using best quality DVD settings mpeg2 2-pass and still it looks blocky
Please can anyone help me! I'm so stuck with this
How's the quality of the FCP exported self-contained movie?
In Compressor, make a duplicate of the Best Quality 90 minute preset, turn ON Frame Controls and set the Resize to Better or Best, select Progressive and Better.
What frame rate do you edit at? If your trying to compress 60p MOV down to 30 DVD, Compressor may struggle to maintain quality. Better to start with 30p or better yet 24p in FCP

Data dvd from mac to pc. PLEASE HELP!
Hi,
I recently burned a data dvd with about 15 hours of music through iTunes on my Powerbook and tried to open it with iTunes for windows on a dell laptop.
The dvd shows in the side bar, along with all the song titles, but they cannot be imported or played. Viewing the dvd itself and clicking on it's files opens iTunes but does not play them. The mp3 files on the disc open, play, and can be added to the library but the m4as cannot! I thought m4a's were the iTunes standard! Does anyone know why these files won't play or import into the library?
I was thinking that maybe there was an issue recognizing the files in windows, or a licensing issue maybe? Any thoughts?
Thanks,
DanielYes, actually I have had some success. Dell Music jukebox seems to copy all the mp3 files (which I didn't want it to do). I managed to get the files onto the computer by dragging (copying) them into a file on the desktop, and then using "Add to Library" as you noted. This works for mp3 and m4a files, and iTunes is able to read both.
There are a few problems I have encountered with this method.
1) Friends who've tried this and added the files sometimes give iTunes the file path back ot the dvd... i.e. when the dvd is removed the files can't be found by iTunes. Removing the dvd before hand, checking the files on the desktop (to ensure thay can play), and then adding them seems to prevent this issue.
2) Also, something that I read in another post in this forum, windows has issues with filenames containing certain punctuation. The post I read said "?" could not be included, but I only had problems with "/".
I have also noted that the laptop only detects the dvd sporadically. At one point it was not showing even in the My Computer menu.
On two dell laptops of the same model, one detected the dvd in the iTunes sidebar and the other did not.
I'm not sure what the issue here is, but I think we'll probably just have to use our ways around it and hope a future software update helps.

SD DVD made in DVD studio pro doesn't work- please help!
Can't figure this problem out for the life of me - checked all forum posts available and nothing has helped. Hopefully you can help me solve this:
I made a SD DVD on a DVD-R (Verbatim 16x) with DVDSP 4.2.1 and it wont work on most DVD players - but - it DOES work on mac computers, Sony PS2, and some PCs with mpeg players.
The footage is 10 min. long (shot with DVCPRO HD 720p60) and imported as a .m2v video & .ac3 audio file using compressor (with the preset DVD Best Quality 90 minutes).
I had originally thought I made an HD DVD by mistake, but when I checked the file in DVDSP, all settings are marked SD; when opening the DVD in file manager, I also see that there are 2 bins VIDEO_TS & AUDIO_TS, so it can't be HD.
What am I doing wrong that it preventing this DVD from playing on most DVD players???? Please help!In what way does it not work, is it not doing absolutely anything at all, is playback jumpy, something else?

Can not select from my own MV. Please help.
Hello Gurus,
I have created a MV with following clauses
CREATE or REPLACE MATERIALIZED VIEW "OWNER_NAME1"."MV_Name1"
BUILD IMMEDIATE
USING INDEX
REFRESH COMPLETE
AS
SELECT column1, column2 .... from table1,table2
where .....
I have logged in to DB with the 'owner_name1' schema itself which is the owner of the MV.
But, when I try to select from the above MV. It gives error "Ora-00942 table or view does not exist"
I can see the same under 'user_objects' view as an object of owner_name1 schema.
Could you please help me in understanding where I have gone wrong?
DB - Oracle 9i on unix platform.
Thanks in advance!
Abhijit.Oh! I missed to mention the exact steps followed by me which created error for me,
viz.
1) I have 2 Database and their users as follows
bq. i) DB1 in local server - 'localUser'
bq. ii) DB2 in remote server - 'RemoteUser1' and 'RemoteUser2'
2) 'RemoteUser2' user in DB2 has 'select' privilage on table 'RemoteTable1' of 'RemoteUser1' ( both are remote DB's users ! )
i.e. select * from RemoteUser1.RemoteTable1; --works okay when logged into RemoteUser2. no synonyms are created hence using schema_name.table_name convention.
3) Logged in to 'localUser' in DB1.
4) Created a DB link 'local_to_remote2' in 'localUser' schema ( in DB1) to 'RemoteUser2' schema (in DB2)
i.e.
create database link local_to_remote2 connect to RemoteUser2 identified by password using 'connection_string';
DBLink was created successfully.
5) I could select from the tables of 'RemoteUser2' using DB Link. (by logging in to 'localUser')
i.e. select * from RemoteUser1.RemoteTable1@local_to_remote2 ; --- gives me expected output. no issues!
6) Now, I created below MV in 'localUser' ( no need to tell in 'DB1' )
the exact syntax I used is as follows,
CREATE or REPLACE MATERIALIZED VIEW "localUser"."MV_Name1"
BUILD IMMEDIATE
USING INDEX
REFRESH COMPLETE
AS
SELECT column1, column2
From RemoteUser1.RemoteTable1@local_to_remote2
where condition1
and condition2;
The MV was created successfully, and I could see it as an 'Valid' object of 'localUser' schema.
i.e. select * from user_objects where object_name ='MV_NAME1' and status ='VALID' --- tells that above create MV is an object of owner 'localUser'
But, when I try to select from the said MV. it gives me error "Ora-00942 table or view does not exist"
i.e. select * from MV_Name1; ---- neither this
select * from localUser.MV_Name1; ---- nor this works :(
Even when I try to drop the same MV it gives me same error. :(
Could you please suggest me anything so that I will be able to select from MY OWN MV ?

I have macbook pro 13" I want to know how to copy files from my mac to the external Toshiba Hard Drive. I can't even delete files from my external hard drive. please help me my macbook HD is almost full and I have to copy my images to the Toshiba HD
To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.

Iv just introduced midi into my studio im running logic9 and have brought Midiman Aniversary 4in 4 out to my set up midi is running well but i cannot seem to mute or solo midi regions an isolate them from the audio can someone please help me Murray.
Hi Charlotte,
You don't say what your version of Windows you have. Assuming XP, go to Start | Run, type DXDIAG and click OK. Click the Sound tab and run the tests to eliminate a hardware problem first of all. If you don't hear anything, check your cables first of all. Also make sure "Mute" isn't checkmarked in your sound setup. You'll find that in Windows Control Panel.
Which browser do you use? If you have Firefox 4, sign up to the HTML5 trial @ http://www.youtube.com/html5
HTML5 is the latest video standard and doesn't require Flash player. Google is in the process of converting all its files to work with the new format. It may solve you problem. If you don't have Firefox 4, you can get it from here: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/
IE8 doesn't support HTML5.
To clean out your temp files, go to Start | Run, type: CLEANMGR and click OK. Click OK again to start the utility. Tick all the boxes except "Compress old files" because the latter takes too long, and then click OK. You can run this utility any time you wish by the way.
The above steps will hopefully fix your problem. If not, post here again please. -

As I was installing the Windows 7 on my Imacwith the bootcamp and stated how I wanted to divide the drive I put 160, but I want to add more space because of the adobe software it will not install two of them, so how can I add more on the drive space to from 160 to 250? please help thank you.
I'm not sure this is what you're looking for, but it might help:
"If you made the Windows partition too small
First, back up all the information on your Windows partition. Then run Boot Camp
Assistant to restore your disk to a single volume. Restart your computer and use Boot
Camp Assistant to partition the disk again and reinstall Windows. Don’t forget to install
the Boot Camp drivers after installing Windows."

I'm in syria and they blocked me from using any VPN service please help without VPN i can't open the store help please ( using iphone 5 version 9.1.4 )
There is nothing that anyone here on a user forum can do to help you. If it is a local issue in Syria, then you need to take it up with your phone company or authorities there who have prevented you from using VPN.
Nobody here can help you. -
My iPhone recently broke so I was sent a brand new iPhone to replace it, however, since receiving this phone, I cannot access anything which was previously backed up onto iCloud from my last iPhone. Please help me!
If you are trying to restore to an iCloud backup, this has to be done during the initial setup process. If your phone is already set up, you will have to go back to Settings>General>Reset and tap Erase All Content & Settings, then go back through the setup screens again and when given the option, choose Restore from iCloud Backup (see image below). Be sure your phone is connected to wifi and your charger as this will take some time to complete.
Also, your replacement phone must be running the same iOS version or higher to restore to your backup. If you are running an older version of iOS than the device that was backed up, your backup will not be visible when you choose to restore to your iCloud backup. If this is the case, you'll have to update your replacement phone first. -
