Export to DV needed to keep sound for AVI files burned with iDVD

I have recently found out that in order to have sound throughout the DVDs that I burn, I must first convert AVI files to DV. This however distorts wide screen video files, thus I am wondering one of two things; the first being if I can convert the files to another type that will not distort the picture and two if there is a way to convert AVI files to DV without changing the picture at all.

I am having the same problem. But it's even weirder. Any .avi file I created using my Flip Ultra camera will play with sound. One or two .avi movies I've d/l'd from the 'net will also play with sound. The remainder will not play with sound on QT (7.5). I have VLC, Real and DivX Player loaded, and all .avi files play on those players with sound, no problem.
Now, my Library/Components folder is empty. My Library/QuickTime folder has the following:
3ivxVideoCodec.component
AC3MovieImport.component
AC3MovieImport.component
CanonMJPEGAVI.component
CanonText.component
Flip4Mac WMV Advanced.component

I followed the instructions on this page, but it still isn't working:

Imovie 09 - exporting options for HD and burning with iDVD

I hope someone can be of help...here it goes
I shoot my footage in 1080i and import as Full HD into Imovie 09. I would like to export the movie files in 1080i so that I can burn to bluray in the near future. However, I'm currently stuck with burning to DVDs currently.
1) Does burning to DVD with movie files that are 1080i present any issues with iDVD? If yes, how should I export from imovie 09 to have the best quality?
2) If exporting as 1080i, should I use: "Export as movie" or "Export as quicktime"
3) If "export as quicktime", what are the best settings to use?
Currently, I'm using "export as movie" with "Full HD" and when I go to burn a disc in iDVD, I have to use "high quality" or "profesional quality" due to a popup that says insufficient space...the result doesn't look good. Would the result be better on DVD if I used 960x540 to export and then used that file to burn to DVD?
My current workflow take about 6 hours to export as 1080i (for 1.5 hours of footage) and then another 4 hours in iDVD to reencode.
I know, lots of questions
Thanks for taking time to read post.

Hi
As I get it - iMovie'08 & 09 are meant to produce small YouTune movies.
Not Full HD
There is NO version of iDVD that can handle HD or Full HD.
So I think You can export under Share a fairly good QuickTime movie but then You
need another tool to get it onto a DVD.
I would use
• Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro
• With Blue-Ray component
• Blue-Ray burner and disks
Still You need a
• Blue-Ray Player to be able to view it (Can't be playebacked on DVD-player OR Mac)
• PlayStation 3 - has a Blur-Ray player
I would also prepare my movie in FinalCut Express or Pro. One has to cheque
that Your format can be handled without any limitations.

No sound for AVI files with Quicktime

I know this is a well discussed topic, but I can't seem to fix this problem.
I upgraded to Quicktime 7.5 and quickly found that I cannot get audio/sound out of my AVI files (most are short clips taken with my Casio Exlim Digital Camera). I tried installing Perian, but that didn't work. I tried reinstalling QT, and that didn't work. I tried repairing disk permissions and that didn't work. Finally, I thought perhaps I had a bad AppleIntermediateCodec file. I downloaded version 1.0.1 from Apple, but it won't let me load it - acts like its an update to an existing file, but the file is not on my system. Here is the contents of my Library/Componets folder:
A52Codec.component

file.temp

JMF does not play sound for .avi file and no video for .mov file

Hi,
I am trying to use JMStudio to transmit media files from one computer to another.
However, when I try to transmit .mov file it only plays audio no video is displayed on other computer.
And when I transmit .avi file I can see the Video on other machine but it does not
play any sound.
I tried using capture devices like - webcam and mic and they work perfectly fine.
Can anyone please tell me the solution for this.
Thank you in advance.

I discovered the same problem too..
I think it is a general Format problem.
When i analyzed the tracks in my .avi and .mov files before rtp streaming with jmf, I found each media containing just 1 track..
This track was a video track, no audio at all.
Other formats I tried, like .mpg, revealed both audio and video tracks, and performed perfectly.
I'm still on more research.. will get the solution to you if u don't find one before I'm done..

Can anyone guide me how to sync sms on iphone to pc and also what setting need to be done to make sure sms remain in iphone indefinitely - need to keep record for work purpose. thanks.

Need help from the expert on how to sync sms on iphone to pc and how to make sure that sms on iphone is not being deleted - need to keep sms for office record purpose

You mean take the cover off of the iPhone, to look inside? I'd recommend against it. Even with warranty expired, you might qualify for an out-of-warranty service, which for 3GS is $149.
Other than that, any repair/service options are going to cost money. You might want to see if a wireless carrier will let you get a new contract & phone.
Out of curiousity, you're just using at as, basically, an iPod Touch, if there's no cell provider? Did I understand that correctly?

My ipod touch don´t have much sound on musics (i already go to settings- music-sound limit unlock), i need more power sound for using ipod to teach fitness classes what can i do!?

My ipod touch don´t have much sound on music tracks (i already go to settings-music-sound limit unlock), i really need more power sound for using ipod to teach fitness classes what can i do!?

I imagine that... a limit of sound because ears problems understand that...but in my case i need power i´m not buying a better surround for the gym (the owner must do, but everyone use cd´s and i not see me record cd´s again) ...its the only problem for this iPod to be perfect.... I´m in Portugal, by the way!!! and thanks again for you helping!!

Keeps asking for rpt file when executing store procedure

Hi all,
  I have coded an standard stored procedure but when I execute it, Management Studio keeps asking for .rpt file to save the results. I am using Enterprise 2008 R2.
This is the code:
USE [mydatabase]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_chart](
@parameters)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE @query NVARCHAR(4000)
   DECLARE @total INT
   DECLARE @strDescriptor NVARCHAR(4000)
   DECLARE @dsvalues NVARCHAR(4000)
   DECLARE @strCache NVARCHAR(2000)
   SET @strDescriptor = dbo.udf_chart_derived_descriptor_intotemp(@derivation_Id)
SET @dsvalues = dbo.udf_chart_derived_dynamic_query_fortopn( @derivation_Id,
   @cache_Id,
   @topn,
@flt_customer_Id,
@flt_user_Id,
@flt_datefrom,
@flt_dateto,
@product_Id
   SET @strCache = 'SELECT top ' + @topn + 'PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id
INTO #T_CacheTopN
FROM T_CacheSupp g
WHERE g.Cache_Id = ' + @cache_Id +
' ORDER BY g.Position'
   IF @strFilter is null
   BEGIN
SET @query = @strCache + ';' + @strDescriptor + ';' +
'DECLARE @total INT;' +
@dsvalues +
'SELECT @total = COUNT(*)
FROM #T_Condition;
SELECT c.Condition_Index, ROUND(COUNT(*)/CAST(@total as float),2)*100
FROM #T_Condition c
GROUP BY c.Condition_Index';
   END
   ELSE
   BEGIN
   DECLARE @sqlfilter NVARCHAR(2000)
SET @sqlfilter = dbo.udf_chart_dynamic_query_filter_fortopn(@strFilter,@product_Id,@topn, @cache_Id)
SET @query = @strCache + ';' +@strDescriptor + ';' +
'DECLARE @total INT;' +
@dsvalues +
'SELECT @total = COUNT(*)
FROM #T_Condition;'+ @sqlfilter +
';SELECT c.Condition_Index, ROUND(COUNT(*)/CAST(@total as float),2)*100
FROM #T_Condition c LEFT OUTER JOIN #T_NotWanted d
ON c.Data_Id = d.Data_ID
WHERE d.Data_Id is null
GROUP BY c.Condition_Index';
   END
   EXEC(@query)
   RETURN
END
When I execute:
DECLARE
@parameters NVARCHAR(4000)
execute usp_chart_derived_fortopn @parameters
it asks me for a .rpt file.
Why is that? I am not running a report.
Thanks

As other have said, you have set Results to File.
But since you posted your code, I had a look at it. I was not able to understand why you use dynamic SQL. For instance, this:
   SET @strCache = 'SELECT top ' + @topn + 'PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id
INTO #T_CacheTopN
FROM T_CacheSupp g
WHERE g.Cache_Id = ' + @cache_Id + ' ORDER BY g.Position'
Can be written as
SELECT top (@topn) PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id
INTO #T_CacheTopN
FROM T_CacheSupp g
WHERE g.Cache_Id = @cache_Id
ORDER BY g.Position
If you can avoid dynamic SQL, your code becomes easier to maintain, and less vulnerable for nasty surprises.
And if you use dynamic SQL, you should use sp_executesql and pass parameter values as parameters instead of inlining them.

How do I disable Quicktime for being my default player for .avi files?

When I click on a .avi file, quicktime always tells me it's unable to open it because it needs a plugin. So I use VLC media player b/c it's hassle free. When I open an avi file, I select the "always open with" option when I choose VLC. Unfortunately, I have to do that for every single avi file I put on my computer. How do I get Quicktime to stop being my default player for .avi files only? I still prefer it to be my default player, but just not .avi files.

Thanks for the link. Is this perian prefpane all I need to maximize my quicktime experience? Basically, will I never EVER see a "quicktime can't open this..." message again? Can I delete VLC media player now?
Also, what the heck is the point of the Eject button in the top right corner of the keypad. When I tried ejecting the perian "disc" that I got from opening the .dmg, it didn't work. Is that button only good for ejecting actual discs from the cd/dvd rom?

Camera-raw plugin for NEF files, made with the new Nikon D7200

Hi, does anyone know when there will be a camera-raw plugin for NEF files made with the new Nikon D7200?

I think that camera is too new. Even the DNG converter will not support it. If you have Nikon software with the camera, you could convert to tiff and then use the tiff files in Elements whilst awaiting the next Camera Raw update for PSE13.

Looking for a file manager with copy queue

Hey,
I'm looking for a file manager with a file-copy-queue feature.
It is useful when browsing mounted samba shares, and you find something you want to copy.
You'll then start copying the files, and then spot another useful folder. You start copying that as well
and suddenly you got 5 different file copies processing at the same time, which decreases the copy speed.
I also miss the feature when transfering files from my external harddrives.
If there is a lot of FM's with this feature, I prefer one without kde-dependencies, as I am using xfce.

Ranguvar wrote:If MC really does have that as a feature, it's once again proved itself _the_ graphical (sorta) file manager.
sorry for misinformed.
mc has a background job option while copying, it is not exactly a queue like functionality, but simulating to be a queue, and you can stop/resume a background job.

Please and thank you

Hello!!
Actually, you need Oracle Spatial or Oracle Locator. Oracle Locator is free on Oracle Express, and you could start with it. Otherwise, if you want to know more, Oracle Spatial comes with Oracle Enterprise, and Oracle 10g gives you a schema that allow you to store, manage and query spatial data through Oracle functions, etc.
To start using MapViewer, considering that you already have some spatial data stored on the database, you could download the MapViewer kit at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/spatial/index.html.
You could buy the Pro Oracle Spatial book. It´s very good.
Good Luck!

Need to keep record for each response to each question on quiz. Can this be done outside an LMS?

For auditing purposes, I need to keep a record of the user's response to each question of a 35 question quiz.
I don't think my LMS (Halogen) has this capability. Is there a way to keep a record of each slide, outside of screen capturing each response?

What is the best way to export and import updates between WSUS servers for specific KB's with environments that have different data sets?

We are under strict regulations and monitoring at my company. Because of this, we have to define what updates are being installed during a patch cycle by KB Article. Two production networks and one test network. The installed updates have to be the exact
same in the test environment, run for a few days with no problems, and then we install them in our production networks. The issue is, not all of the software in the environments is identical.
I need to figure out a way to take failed/needed updates from production that are unapproved, export that list so I can approve all of those updates in the test env.. Then once I approve those and any other needed updates in test, I need to be able to export
all approved updates from the test env (which includes the needed ones from production) and import those approvals in production.
How can this be done?
Thanks!

the easiest way will be to use a single wsus infrastructre for all your environments.
Tis blog article explains how to duplicate the approvals over groups:

Iphoto 6.0.5 - keeps searching for .mov file that has been deleted

OK, this is my problem...
I am running the most recent version of iphoto. i keep all of my photos in the iphoto library, which i run off of an external drive. recently, my drive filled up so i got a new 120gb firelite drive and transferred my photos AND the iphoto library to the new drive. then i started iphoto and was given the choice to create a new library or locate the library. i chose 'locate' and pointed it in the right direction. iphoto opened, and all my photos everything appeared to be ok in the program. this is when my problems began...
problem 1: if i try to do anything with any of the photos, i am told that the file cannot be located. i tried to re-import the library but the program began complaining about not being able to locate several movie files (that are in the library and on the external drive). then iphoto stopped responding.
problem 2: i then did a force quit, and now EVERY time i try to do ANYTHING (with other programs) while iphoto is open, it begins to look for the same movie file each time. then iphoto stops responding. i've since deleted the movie from my drive and from the iphoto library, but iphoto keeps looking for it each time.
please help!!!! my sanity rests on your ability to help me out....

1. Try rebuilding the Library: Restart the iPhoto while holding down the Apple and Option keys. The resulting dialogue will give you the options.
2. Apart from moving the Libary, have you changed anything within the iPhoto Library Folder?
