Estimated File Size not updating

I have a project in vers. 5.5 that I am exporting.
I am saving as a Windows Media File and am going from 1080 to 720.  File size is critical, however the Estimate File Size in Encoder seems to get stuck.  For instance, if I half the frame rate I see no difference in file size.  I would think that there would be significant reduction in estimated file size if half the frames are being tossed.  Am I not understanding something about how this works?

There are only two things that significantly affect file size - duration and bitrate.  Changing other specs may affect quality, but those two determine file size.

  • SQL 2008 R2 - Mirror sys.master_files data file size not updating

    Hi,
    I have an odd issue where the primary server is SQL 2008 R2 SP1 and the secondary is SQL 2008 R2 SP2. I have databases mirroring between these servers. We recently moved the log file on the secondary to a different drive. The file sizes match and are updating
    exactly the same between both servers. The mirror monitor shows the mirroring successful and everything is up to date. When we check the sys.master_files tables on the mirror, the size of the data file has not updated since moving the log file. Tried restarting
    SQL but not joy.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks
    Rob

    Hi,
    I would say you wait for some time it would get reflected I have seen this with sys.master_files they are updated late. Like when you delete heavy data, data would be gone but space captured by data would be  released slowly due to internal ghost operation
    cleaning and after this operation completes sys.master_files catalog is updated I guess this is what happening here as well , this is pure speculation. I will stick to this thread please look for a day and then update again

  • How to update "Estimated File Size"

    As I fiddle around with my Export Settings (CS4), I don't see any update in the "Estimated File Size" info at the bottom left of the screen.
    It seems to me that as I move the Target Bitrate and Maximum bitrate (as well as the other options), I would see the Estimated File size increase or decrease so I can have real time feedback on my settings.
    Is there a setting I need to change or a command I need to make in order to see an updated "Estimated File Size"?
    Thanks
    ...Rowby

    Nevermind. I see that the sliders do indeed give me a reak time updated file size.  Don't know how I missed it.

  • How come exporting to mov never shows estimated file size ?

    Hi everyone,
    I export to mov more often now, that one of my buddies works exclusively on a mac.
    He lives vids in .mov format, but one thing I don't understand, is why there is no estimated file size, as with every other format I can export to ?
    Does anyone know why ?
    Also, whenever I choose to output to .mov the "include audio" button is always not "on" by default, however, with all other export formats it is enabled.
    thanks for any suggestions, and info.
    Dave.

    >Does anyone know why ?
    I certainly don't. I assume that the Quicktime interaction with Premiere Pro just doesn't provide that information the way the drivers that Adobe wrote (or bought) do.

  • How to avoid db_recover "file size not a multiple of the pagesize" error?

    I am writing some backup and recovery scripts for a Berkeley DB application. I'm using the Oracle supplied db_hotbackup.exe and db_recover.exe executables (DB 4.5.20). My very first recovery unit test has resulted in the following error from db_recover:
    "file size not a multiple of the pagesize"
    What is the cause of this error, and how do I create my backup files to avoid this problem?

    This error message indicates that a file that should be made up of pages of a certain size is not a multiple of that size. For example, if a database file configured with 4KB pages was found in a 10KB file, you would get this error message.
    Can you check that however the scripts manipulate the database files, they don't add or remove any bytes from the end?
    Regards,

  • Save for Web file size not updaing

    I am trying to save out a graphic for the web and I'm noticing that the little number indicating file size is not updating..did something change?
    OS X, CS6 Mac Pro, 16GM RAM Yosemite, 10.10.2
    Thank you!

    It should work. Maybe it needs a reset.
    Open Save for Web, press the Option key on your Mac, the Cancel button changes to Reset. Click on it and it should clear it to defaults.
    Alternate:  Reset Photoshop preferences: Hold down cmd-opt-shift, start Photoshop and click on Yes when the "delete Photoshop settings file" dialog comes up.

  • Remote file template not updating on website

    Hello I am very very new to dreamweaver and have been handed a website that I have to maintain and make changes to.
    The website uses a template called index with further nested templates as shown
    The index template contains the code for the Menu Bar and footer and although I have been able to make other updates and changes I am finding that any changes to the code on this template do not show up on the site. The strange thing is that both the local and remote code has updated as I would like it is just the website itself that is not changing. When I view the website source code it is different to the remote file code. I assume that the link between the two is somehow broken but I do not know how to fix it. Is there a trick to fixing such a problem or am I wrong about this being the problem?
    Here is the remote file code which is that same as the local code - I have out the code that is not updating in bold and underlined it:

    Jon Fritz that did actually work for some of the pages but not others. I upadted each invidivual page, except the main page as I have not finished the content and now some of the pages are acting strangely.
    Here is the website http://www.genesi-fp7.eu/index.html
    As you can see every page except the 'Contacts' and 'Links' page is now reading the correct code when you click on the 'Consortium' tab. The strange thing however is that the footer has updated on the 'Links' page suggesting that this part of the template has updated. Both these pages are based on the Index-misc nested template. The code is copied here:

          <h1>Introduction to the G.EN.ESI Project</h1>
          <p>The sustainability of industrial products, particularly  household appliances, is an important issue today.  Energy consumption in the  residential/domestic sector is about 20% of world consumption, and associated  greenhouse gas emissions exceed 35%.   Household appliances contribute greatly to these values and thus require  particular attention as far as sustainability is concerned.</p>
          <p>It is well known that decisions taken during the early  design of products are very important in determining total product cost.  It is possible to hypothesize the same for  environmental impacts – i.e. the sustainability of a product is largely  determined during the early design stage. In order to allow designers to make  well-informed decisions, new design methods and tools are needed to provide the  basis for determining the degree of sustainability of a given product or  process.  Many eco-design procedures and  tools have been developed but they are often far from a practical day-by-day  application in company engineering departments, and they are not well  integrated with computer-aided design tools.   This project wants to make up for this limitation and to develop an eco-design  methodology (called G.EN.ESI) and a related software design tool (called the  G.EN.ESI platform) able to help product designers in ecological design choices,  without losing sight of cost and typical practicalities of industry. The  software platform will propose a guided process towards eco-design among  several design choices based on the different scenarios of product lifecycle.  The proposed approach will be applied to the household appliance field but it  can be easily extended to other mechatronic products.</p>
          <p>The project started in February 2012 and will continue until  January 2015.</p>

  • How to reduce jpg file size, not pixel dimensions?

    I am preparing images for the web and I really have 2 questions: one about gifs, and one about jpgs.
    My standard procedure is to reduce the image to the desired pixel dimensions at 600 dpi
    That gives me a crisp small image. then I either use it as is if the file size is low enough (I try for under 600 kb) or convert it to a gif with the save for web and devices tool.
    So here are my 2 questions (I will count this solved with either answer)
    1) When I convert to a gif I have the 4 boxes: one with original size, the other 3 with options but often the options are too low res for me How do I change my 3 options to start at a higher gif res?
    2) If I try to reduce the file size of the jpg in the image size box I set the resolution lower ( 400, 300), which lowers the pixel dimensions and the filesize, but I don't want to cahnge the pixel dimensions. And  If I reset the pixel dimensions back to the size I want them, even though it is a lower resolution the file size doesn't change. How to reduce jpg file size using only the resolution, not pixel dimensions?  PS I have tried messing with checking and unchecking the 3 little boxes( scale styles, constrain proportions, and resample) but nothing has worked.

    Gif is not a great filetype, especially if you want a crisp image. What are your pixel dimensions?
    For web, it makes no difference what the dpi is, only the final pixel dimensions so once you have that as you want, use 'Save for Web and Devices' and you can lower the quality - 100% being max and 0% being lowest. I wouldn't save anything below 55%. For a 600kb image, your dimensions must be rather big.

  • File Sizes Not Showing Up In Finder

    Well lately spotlight has been really slow and sizes for files have not been showing up in spotlight, what could be the problem?
    Here is a screenshot:
    http://img169.imageshack.us/img169/1299/picture1av9.png

    I don't think your picture has anything to do with Spotlight. My Applications folder shows up the exact same way. Mac OS X applications aren't usually a single item, they're "packages" with items and folders inside. To get folders and packages to show their size, you'll have to change the "View Options" from the View menu. Check the box on to "Calculate all sizes". I would probably change the dialog box to reflect the changes to "This window only". Otherwise the Finder will be re-calculating the size of everything in every window. That could slow things down a bit.

  • File dates not updated in finder window (Mozilla only)

    OK, folks - here's a real puzzler for you. I'm using Mozilla 1.7.12 to maintain a simple set of web pages. When I save an HTML file with Mozilla composer, the file's modify date in the Finder window does not update consistently. (The window is in list view.)
    The date does not update as long as that finder window remains in the background. Selecting the window sometimes updates one file date (but not others if I've modified multiple files). Switching to icon view sometimes updates the file dates, sometimes not. Only logging out and back in (i.e., starting a new Finder) guarantees that all dates are current. This only happens with Mozilla composer - saving files with other software results in the date in the finder window updating immediately. It seems to me this behavior is new since I updated to OSX 10.4.3, but I can't be positive.
    Any bright ideas? - Andy
    PowerMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Is this causing any problems, or is it just a quirky behavior? For example, if you change to list view and sort by date, does it still get the dates wrong?
    I'm thinking this is probably a really marginal bug, where Composer isn't telling the Finder to refresh the date as most applications do, but then, Mozilla does a lot of unMaclike things. Eventually the Finder figures out that the files have been updated though. There are probably a host of ways you can force it to update, as you've already discovered. You can also force it to update with a simple AppleScript:
    tell application "Finder"
    update every item of window 1
    end tell
    This tells the Finder to update everything in the frontmost window to match what's on the disk.

  • Help with compress function--file sizes not substantially reduced

    I've tried to use the compress function (right click "compress" or Finder/File/Compress) a few times on files from a variety of different programs. While this results in creating a zip file, the file size is not substantially reduced (e.g., from 43.4 MB to 42.9 MB). Is there a way to change how much a file is compressed?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Not all material is very compressible. Text files and word processor documents usually compress very well. Photos and movies don't compress much if at all due to the nature of their structure (in some cases, using a general-purpose compressor can actually make a file larger). So it will depend on what it is you're compressing.

  • Applescript: file size not recognized as changed in script

    This is difficult for me to explain.
    I'm trying to delay the start of a Folder Action because it's starting before the file has time to finish writing.  So I've written a script to try and sample the file size, wait a few seconds then sample the file size again, compare the two sizes and as long as they are different I figure the file is still being written.  However when I implement the code below I don't see a difference in the two file sizes.  And the delay command does not seem to be working.  I put the display dialogs and the beeps in there for troubleshooting purposes.
    on run
              tell application "Finder"
                        set myDelta to 1.0
                        set mySize1 to 1.0
                        set muSize2 to 1.0
              end tell
              repeat until myDelta = 0.0
                        tell application "Finder"
                                  set myFile1 to item 1 of folder "abc" of desktop
                                  set mySize1 to size of myFile1
      display dialog mySize1 as string
      beep
                                  delay 8
      beep
                                  set myFile2 to item 1 of folder "abc" of desktop
                                  set mySize2 to size of myFile2
      display dialog mySize2 as string
                                  set myDelta to mySize2 - mySize1
      display dialog myDelta as string
                        end tell
              end repeat
    end run
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    I find that if I'm copying a big file from a thumb drive Lion will hold off until the file is finished writing (e.g. around 1 minute), however if I'm bouncing a file from ProTools (i.e. 20 min)  the Folder Action starts immediately and the desired action does not work (even with your code or my code.)
    Maybe you might want to try another version of the Folder Action script, where I've added a “with timeout” statement:
    on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
        set thisFile to item 1 of added_items
        with timeout of 3600 seconds
            tell application "Finder"
                activate
                repeat
                    set size1 to size of thisFile
                    delay 1
                    set size2 to size of thisFile
                    if size2 = size1 then exit repeat
                end repeat
                display dialog "Done!" with icon 1
            end tell
        end timeout
    end adding folder items to

  • Estimated file size in Media Encoder too big by 8 GB, Why? Need to be accurate

    I completed a 2 and a half hour project in Premiere Pro CS 5.5 at 1440 x 1080i
    I went to encode it through Media Encoder. (File ---- Export ------ Media) the box opened up and I set my settings. I encoded it at (CBR)
    I looked at the file size and it said it was estimated at 15GB, which is what I wanted it to be.
    It took 4 hours to encode and when it was done I looked at the file size and it was 23 GB.
    Why? It said it was going to be 15 GB
    I imported it into Encore as an asset and put it on a timeline. Encore says the project is now 31 GB (I do have Animated Butons with Moviing Videos inside of them so that is adding to the size).
    How can I get an accurate size so when it says it going to be 15 GB it is going to be 15 GB?
    Premiere Pro CS 5.5
    Media Encoder 5
    Encore 5.5

    I think the key word is estimated.

  • Reduce file size not working

    I have Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional.  I scanned an 868 page text only document using two different professional scanners at my work, Xerox Docucolor and Canon DR-6030 Scanner.
    The scanned settings were 300 dpi, black and white, duplex.  No photos, not even line art.
    1.  The result was a 32 mb file.  I don't know why it's so big.  It should be no more than 4-6 mb. 
    2.  Furthermore, the file size remained unchanged after I used the reduce file size command.
    I am baffled, any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Try the PDF Optimizer. You could also try a ClearScan OCR. If you did OCR, but did not do ClearScan, then you are simply looking at pictures of your scan. The ClearScan will replace photos of text with actual text and a text file. You have left a lot out of what you have done in the scan. Also, scanners or the translations often give you a 24-bit graphic file even if it is really only B&W. Often the best results for OCR are gotten from a Gray Scale form in my experience. So, the structure of your PDF may be the issue. The PDF Optimizer also has an audit feature to show where most of the memory is being used.
