Encoding for BluRay Help Please

Hello,
I'm encoding BluRay for the first time using Media Encoder CS4.
First, some details about my footage.
Shot with a Panasonic HVX-170 set at: 1080i/24PA.
The footage properties are: 1280 x 1080, Pixel Depth 32, Frame Rate 29.97 (24P),
Audio 16/48K, Average Data Rate: 1.2 Mb, Pixel Aspect Ratio is 1.5
There are a number of settings to choose from. Some obviously aren't correct but I'm not sure
about the others. I don't see one for 1280 x 1080.
So out of all these settings, which is the one I need to Encode my footage for the best results?
1440x1080i 25 High Quality
1440x1080i 29.97 High Quality
1440x1080p 23.976 High Quality
1440x1080p 24 High Quality
HDTV 1080i 25 High Quality
HDTV 1080i 29.97 High Quality
HDTV 1080p 23.976 High Quality
HDTV 1080p High Quality SurCode For Dolby Digital 5.1
HDTV 1080p 24 High Quality
HDTV 720p 23.976 High Quality
HDTV 720p 24 High Quality
HDTV 720p 50 High Quality
HDTV 720p 59.94 High Quality
NTSC DV High Quality
NTSC DV Widescreen High Quality
Also, can anyone explain what H.264 BluRay is used for?
Thanks very much in advance.
Mark Dalzell

Jim,
First off, thanks for taking time to help out. I'm encoding now.
I have a question if you wouldn't mind. I'm a little confused. Well OK, a lot...
Is there any specific reason as to why I wouldn't use the setting(s) either
HDTV 1080i 29.97 High Quality or HDTV 1080p 24 High Quality?
The reason I ask is because it was shot at 1080i/24PA and
the frame rate is 29.97.
Again, my thanks to you for helping me out.
Best.
Mark

Dear Sir/Madam,
I tried the following but no success:
1. Unplug the sync cable from device.
2. Turned off device (slide to power off).
3. Pressed and hol the Home botton and pluged in the sync cable.
4. Hold Home button until "Connect to iTunes" but this message did not appear
So couldn't go any further than this.
Looking forward for your help please.
Kind regards,

Getting error message2324 when downloading the new update for itunes help please

getting error message 2324 when downloading the latest update of itunes help please.
Will not let me uninstall itunes from my computer, gives me the message that I don't have access need administrator. ( I am the only user of this computer)
Thank you
Chris

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (Later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
See also HT1925: Removing and Reinstalling iTunes for Windows XP or HT1923: Removing and reinstalling iTunes for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Should you get the error iTunes.exe - Entry Point Not Found after the above reinstall then copy QTMovieWin.dll from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
and paste into:
C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
The above paths would be for a 64-bit machine. Hopefully the same fix with the " (x86)" omitted would work on 32-bit systems with the same error.

ISync for Mac - Help please!

I have a Nokia N70 and am trying to update my contacts from my Address Book. I have up-to-date OSX 10.4.10 and iSync 2.4 and the phone is being recognised, so a good start! My problem is that my updated Address Book entries are not being transferred, somehow an old version of my Address Book is being used by iSync.
I've tried restarting the Mac, clearing all contacts from my phone and sync-ing again (repeatedly), but I still get the contacts from the old version of Address Book loaded into the phone.
I'm not a Mac expert, can anyone smarter than me help please?
Thanks for your time.
MacAndy
PS Any tips on useful software for making the N70 otherwise more compatible with music and any other areas would be very welcome.

Battery Level Gauge for E61i - Help please

The battery indicator on the menu of these phones is hopeless and don't appear to be any better in the various themes available. Does anyone know where I can get a good basic battery guage - preferably freeware but I don't mind paying a few ££.
Thanks for any help.
Queensparker

With the headset switched on and connected wirelessly go to:
Settings > Accessories and you'll see the battery level there.
If you don't see it you need to make sure your Nokia apps are fully up to date, especially Accessories and Audio. You can find the codes to update them on this link:

The five Rs wont work for me- help please!

My boyfriend is stuck in Iraq on duty with and Ipod he just bought this month, and it isnt responding to anything. Its a hassel getting the ipod from one country to another so if there is anything that will fix the problem would be awesome! This is what he says its the problem (he cant get online often btw):
when i try to turn it on with it now plugged into the computer, the apple screen with turn on then it goes to a screen that has a folder with one of these marks ( ! ) and below that it says www.apple.com/support/ipod, then it turns off. and then when i plug it into my computer it does the samething but it does not turn off it just says do not disconnect. my itunes does not reconize my ipod. i tryed the whole 5 R's thing, but the ipod uploader program will not let me restore my ipod, it just freezes up on me.
(so its a combination of problems- thanks for the help!)
Also- does anyone know of a good case that will keep anything from getting inside (like sand? cause hes scratching ipod real bad)

You say you've tried different FireWire ports on the G5 ..but that often seems to be the problem ..or the fix!
Do you have a 3rd-party FireWire card installed in the G5..? If so, try connecting the cam to one of those ports instead of the built-in ports. Or try pulling out the 3rd-party card, and then try the built-in ports.
Do you have someone else's codec installed? Toast? Flip4Mac? To avoid those, try creating a new User (..System Preferences>Accounts and press the + at the bottom of the left pane..) then log in as that User instead, and see if it works. If so, you have conflicting software in your main User account.
However, it's not usually that: it's most often (..with a G5..) a hardware (FW port) problem, by all accounts. [..Even the Apple Store in London couldn't get their FX1 to work with their G5 when I wanted a demo of import times!..]
So there has to be a solution (my FX1 works fine with PowerBooks and a Mac mini, but I don't have a G5) ..I'd suspect a bad interaction between different ports - or recently-connected FW hardware - on the G5.
P.S: "..Then viola... iMovie crashes and all goes downhill from there.." Try removing the viola; it takes up too much space. Try a violin.

Skateboard movie compression for web, HELP. please

hi,
can anyone help me here?
ok,here is the situation.
i want to get the best compression using h.264 (file size,quality etc) for a 6 min fast moving skateboard film with graphics and slow motion sequences.
i have compressor and quicktime pro too.
please give me some advice on whats best.
i would like the quality to be near the origianl final cut file.
would be great if someone could describe exact settings.
thanks

I would stick with David's suggestion. You're going to have to compromise size and quality. Any time you're dealing with web media you need to be sensitive to file size and download times. In order to accommodate an acceptable file size that caters to your market you'll have to compress the video which in turn will degrade quality. If your not happy with 800 kbps h.264 try again with a slightly higher or lower bit rate.

Hello Jennwj,
It sounds like you have iTunes credit and you are being prompted to verify credit card information. You may be able to set your payment method to None in the iTunes account settings with this article:

You can see the payment methods that the iTunes Store accepts in the Payment Type section. If you want to remove the payment method, select None in the Payment Type section.
If you are not able to select None, this article may help you determine why:
Why can’t I select None when I edit my payment information?

Adobe Media Encoder Fail - need help please

I keep getting a failed error when trying to use Adobe Media Encoder.
I open up my premiere project and select the comp I want. I switch the format to Quicktime, select h.264 from preset. Hit the start button and I get the failed sound/icon.
2 questions:
1. My comp is 1920x1080 but when I go in it automatically has it as 720... why is it not recognizing the comp size?
2. Is there a way to fix this error? It seems to export occassionally to my C drive (which is not raid) but it fails to my F drive (Raid 10). But usually if I export as a wmv or something smaller it exports fine to F.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you I had to go out of town. Error message doesn't say anything to me... maybe to you. I'm not really sure what to set for "Field Type" so I just leave it at Lower. Not sure if I should set it to higher or progressive instead.

which is commonly available including from Apple of course. Just use your favourite search engine to look for iPhone 3G headphone adapters.
<div class="jive-quote">
I decided to give this a shot. I did a google and couldn't find one of these for sale in the US. There were a lot that looked similar, but close inspection showed the male 3.5mm end to only have 2 channels. All these do are extend the length of your head set as the plug is the same as any 3.5mm headset plug. Apple sells one of these and I can guarantee it doesn't help this problem in any way.
I also saw one advertised that DID have the 3 rings on the tip, but the text clearly stated that it was for ANY headset that included a mike. Once again, this should not correct this problem.
So, I just ordered one of these from the site above in the UK. The total cost came to around $9 US and is supposed to be shipped Air Mail First Class. When I receive it, I'll post the results here. I'm hoping it will get here quickly as I'm leaving for Europe in 2 weeks and would like to use it with my noise reduction headset on the flight.

PCIe Graphics cards for G5 - help please

I have a PowerMac G5 (late 2005) model #M9592B/A
I am looking for graphics compatible graphics cards that are identical.
here are my requirements
1) i need three to fit so must be 1 slot high
2) must do s-video/composite out
3) PCIe 4lane
as cheap as possible around the £70-£100 mark
can anyone suggest any certain models or know a place i can go to get them, i can't seem to find any anywhere and apple store don't have any to this "low" spec
any help greatly appreciated
best regards

Hi-
There are none that feature s-video/composite out that are single slot cards.
The only card that is even close to your specs is the Geforce 6600.
Check what is available for PCI express graphics G5's at We Love Macs.
Some alternative thinking.
