File sizes are coming about a bit big

Okay so I've been having this problem for a few days now, and I can't figure out how to fix it. I am rendering a 30 second clip recorded in 1080p in a quicktime format, with H.264 compression and no effects added and the file size is coming pretty large. I also tried it in H.264 format with the same codec and the file size is pretty much the same. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

You say you've been using the same render settings you've always used and the same workflow you've always used, but the result is different. Clearly, something has changed. Computers aren't whimsy-driven, drama-loving, capricious machines. They only do what they are told. Now, it could be that something outside of your control changed, but it would help us all try to help you figure it out if you gave more information.
Have you installed any software recently? Have you installed any codec packs recently (such as k-lite)? Has your computer updated itself recently (Adobe software, Windows, etc.)?
Screenshots of your AE render settings would be useful. Are you running version 11.0.4 of AE? What OS (I'm guessing Windows, but which one)? Etc.

  • Why the files my program create are created twice each file double ? And why sometimes the files size are too small ?

    My program is using Queue of type Uri to create Queue of urls and then i'm using webbrowser to navigate each Uri from the Queue in it's turn and get the url(html) source content and save it to the hard disk.
    The problem is sometimes the text files on the hard disk are small like 90KB or 60KB and sometimes they are as they are suppose to be 300KB or 200KB.
    This is a button click event where i'm calling two methods:
    private void toolStripButton3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    GetHtmls();
    CheckQueue();
    This is the GetHtmls method code:
    private Queue<Uri> myUrls = new Queue<Uri>();
    private bool isBusy = false;
    private void GetHtmls()
    for (int i = 1; i < 49; i++)
    adrBarTextBox.Text = sourceUrl + i;
    targetHtmls = (combinedHtmlsDir + "\\Html" + i + ".txt");
    Uri targetUri = new Uri(sourceUrl + i);
    myUrls.Enqueue(targetUri);
    sourceUrl contain website address: http://www.tapuz.co.il/forums2008/forumpage.aspx?forumid=393&pagenumber=
    And i'm adding to it the numbers and create the pages.
    And add them to the Queue.
    THen the CheckQueue method:
    Uri uri;
    private void CheckQueue()
    if (isBusy)
    return; // We're downloading some page right now, don't disturb
    isBusy = true; // OK, let's get started
    if (myUrls.Count == 0) // No more pages to download, we're done
    isBusy = false;
    return;
    uri = myUrls.Dequeue(); // Get one URL from queue
    getCurrentBrowser().Navigate(uri);
    It suppose to Navigate to each Uri(html address) in the Queue.
    And the browser document completed event:
    private void Form1_DocumentCompleted(object sender, WebBrowserDocumentCompletedEventArgs e)
    // If page loaded completly then do something
    int urlnumber = uri.ToString().IndexOf("pagenumber=");
    string number = uri.ToString().Substring(urlnumber + 11);
    int num = Int32.Parse(number);
    targetHtmls = (combinedHtmlsDir + "\\Html" + num + ".txt");
    StreamWriter writer = File.CreateText(targetHtmls);
    writer.Write(getCurrentBrowser().DocumentText);
    writer.Close();
    isBusy = false; // We're done
    CheckQueue(); // Check next page in queue
    In the completed event i'm getting the page number and build the string for the text file then write the html source content to the text file.
    In the end i have on my hard disk 48 text files.
    The problems are:
    1. Sometimes it seems like it's not finishing navigating to the current uri or maybe some other reason maybe server side problem and creating small size files with source content inside but not all the source content. Sometimes the text files size are each
    file 99KB or 70KB and sometimes the size of them are about 300KB and 200KB and this is the right sizes 300KB 200KB.
    2. The text files on my hard disk suppose to be 48 different files each file should contain the source if the html page of the 48 pages. But on my hard disk the 48 text files are duplicated for some reason.
    This is the file on my hard disk:
    Some of the files are 205KB 350KB 175KB and some of the files sizes are 85KB 94KB 35KB 
    Why some of the files it didn't navigated to the end or maybe didn't got all the source ?
    And why it's making each second file the same like the one before ? It suppose to create 48 different files but i'm getting two identical files each navigation.

    I solved it now.
    This is what i did:
    It's a bit slow process since i'm waiting for each page to be loaded into the webbrowser but it does the work.

    You don't really give much detail on what operations were performed and in what sequence (e.g. duplicate from where to where...) nor if there was any workload running when you did the duplicate. In general checkpoint file sizes amongst replicas will not be the same / remain the same because:
    1. Replicas are logical replicas not physical replicas. Replication transfers logical operations and applies logical operations and even if you try and do exactly the same thing at both sides in exactly the same order there are internal operations etc. that are not necessarily synchronised which will cause the size of the files to vary somewhat.
    2. The size of the file as reported by 'ls -l' represents the maximum offset that has so far been written to in the file but the current 'usage' of the file may be less than this at present.
    3. Checkpoint files are 'sparse' files (unless created with PreAllocate=1) and so the space used as reported by 'du' will in general not correspond ot the size of the file as reported by 'ls -l'.
    Unless you are seeing some kind of problem I would not be concerned at an apparent difference in size.

  • I have a few hundred duplicates in my iPhoto library, but the file sizes are different.  So one is 1.3mb and one is 567kb.  I want to delete the smaller ones, but short of comparing each duplicate, is there a way to do this?

    I have a few hundred duplicates in my iPhoto library, but the file sizes are different.  So one is 1.3mb and one is 567kb.  I want to delete the smaller ones, but short of comparing each duplicate, is there a way to do this?  I've been looking at Duplicate Annhilator but I don't think it can do it.
    Thanks!

    I just ran a test with iPhoto Library Manager, Duplicate Annihilator, iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner, Duplifinder and Photodedupo.  I imported a folder of 5 photos into a test library 3 times, allowing iPhoto to import duplicates.  I then ran the 5 photos thru resizer to reduce their jpeg compression but all other aspects of the file the same.
    None of the duplicate removal apps found set that was reduced in the file resizer. That's probably due to the fact that the file creation date was being used as a criteria and the resized photo would have a different file creation date even though the Image Capture date was the same.
    They all found the 3 regular duplicates and some of them would mark two and leave the 3rd unmarked.  iPhoto Duplicate Cleaner can sort the found duplicates by file size but if the file was edited to get the reduced file size it might not be found as it would have a different file creation/modification date. 
    iPhoto Library Manage was able to find all duplicates and mark them as such if the file names were the same the the filename option was selected.  Otherwise it also missed the modified, resized version.  It allowed one to select the one photo to save before going to work on the library.
    So if a photo has been reduced in image quality or pixel size it will not be considered a duplicate.

  • File SIZES are Different ?

    Hi Experts,

  • FCP file sizes are twice the size of Quicktime's - any advantage to FCP?

    When I capture footage from my Canon HV40 MiniDV using FCP, the file sizes are almost twice the size as when I capture using Quicktime's Device Native setting. Is there any advantage to capturing with FCP, as the quality seems the same in QT? Or is there a way to reduce the file size being captured in FCP?
    I'd like to be able to capture in FCP because if there is a dropped frame in the recording, Quicktime stops recording, whereas FCP keeps going and starts a new file. But the larger file size in FCP puts me off.

    Not all codecs are editable...meaning, not all work in an editing application. I'm not sure what "device native" captures as in QT. Does it say in GET INFO? But FCP captures HDV and DV native, but in a native format that it can work with. HDV comes in as HDV...Dv as DV.
    I wouldn't trust what QT is capturing as DEVICE NATIVE. And 13GB/hour of footage is not that much. That's the lowest data rate format out there.

  • FCE file sizes are twice the size of Quicktime's - any advantage to FCE?

    There is no difference in the two files. They are both DV Stream (.dv).
    If you look in the Movie Properties window you'll notice that both tracks (audio and video) have the same file size.
    Obviously, this can't mean that the audio track is really as large as the video track in data size. It means that the only way QuickTime can "separate" the stream into two editable tracks is to duplicate them (but ignore the video playback of the audio track portion).
    I don't use Final Cut but I would suspect it might make two files (audio and video) instead of a single file made by QuickTime Player Pro.
    Confusing, isn't it?

  • When does Photoshop cc supports the raw files wich are coming from the Nikon D5500 ?

    Hello,
    When does Photoshop cc supports the raw files wich are coming from the Nikon D5500 ?
    Iam a very happy user of Photoshop, specially for my raw files... i find it frustrated that i can't work on my files for now..
    Greatings Danny

    The D5500 was just released and Adobe is working on support. Cannot say how long for sure, but it should be within a month or two. Meanwhile, you could shoot in NEF+JPEG and set Camera Raw to open your JPEGs as well. Not as much data, but will be better than nothing..

  • File sizes shown to be twice as big in Finder

    I work with 2 different Mac Pro towers.  The one at my home has Photoshop cs4 and the one at my studio has Photoshop cs6.  The other day I noticed that Finder on my studio computer shows the file size to be twice as big as the finder on my home computer.  The pixel dimension size doesn't change, just the file size.  It shows up that way after I save it on my studio computer. If I take that file home and resave it on that computer then the Finder shows the smaller file size again.  I guess the questions I have are: Is the file size is actually increasing and if so, what could be causing that to happen?  Photoshop shows the files to be the same size, but in the Finder window is where I see the difference.  Holla!!

    Sounds like you have "Maximize Compatibility" enabled in the Photoshop which saves the bigger files, and have it disabled in the other Photoshop.
    See the control in Preferences > File Handling.

  • My jpeg file sizes are much larger than they used to be.

    Just recently the file sizes on my .jpeg files have become excessively larger than they used to be just a week or so ago. Where I used to go almost a week to need to archive to DVD a bunch of saved images, I've now got to save to DVD almost daily.
    For example, a 300x300 pixel image which shoud be about 32 Kb reads 383 Kb in the finder. I'm not doing anything to these images, just draging and droping.
    Where I used to get 7 K files on a DVD, I'm now getting less than 2 K files to each disc.
    Any thoughts on what's changed and how to fix it?

    What App & JPEG compression rating are you using, some apps can reduce file size by dropping colors for instance...

  • LMS3.0.1 Log files' size are not purged.

    There is a LMS 3.0.1.
    Every day size of all log files only are increased.
    I have a 12G particion for log files but it's full every 2 weeks.
    In this case I have to stop LMS, delete all log files and start LMS manually every two weeks.
    Also, there is following message:
    CiscoWorks Folder Utilization is 8%Processes DFMCTMStartup, DataPurge are down.
    I tried to start these services several times but it failed all time.
    Hot to make LMS to prevent of increasing of log files over Recommended Size Limit?

    These two processes should be done in normal operation.  Do not try and start them manually.
    To rotate log files periodically, you will need to configure logrot.  Search the Common Services online help for "logrot", and you will get the instructions for configuring it.  Essentially, you will need to run NMSROOT/bin/perl NMSROOT/bin/logrot.pl -c, then walk through the menu prompts to configure the files you want to rotate.

  • Adobe Illustrator CS5 File sizes are huge!

    Try this:
    open a new Illustrator document
    create a simple box, black stroke, white fill
    save the file
    you're looking at something like 1 Mb for these 4 anchor points and the fill and stroke definition!
    now, back in Illustrator, downsave to Illustrator 3 format
    file size is in around 6Kb - much better!
    Okay, I know we can disable ICC profile embedding, PDF compatibility etc, but none of that even comes remotely close to the "correct" file size of < 10Kb.
    C'mon Adobe, what are you putting in that CS5 file that's so darned important? This isn't a complex illustration with gradient masks, 3D transforms and thousands of points.
    I get it, everyone has terrabyte drives and high-speed internet. Is that an excuse to make really inefficient file formats?

    hmmmm......
    As Monika pointed out... deleting the defualt library items will make files sizes drastically smaller.
    I'd guess that version 3, since it lacked the ability to work in preview mode, didn't save file previews with the file either... that could easily account for 50kb.

  • ITunes file sizes are double my new computer

    Hello
    I am hoping someone can help me. I recently got a new (to me) computer and I am loading my CDs into iTunes on it. They were previously in iTunes on my husband's computer. I noticed after about 40 CDs (550 songs) that they were half the space (4gb) of my 8gb iPod. I had 2100 songs on my iPod off my husband's iTunes. I looked that at the size of a CDs on his iTunes and it was about 50mb. The same CD on my iTunes is 110mb. It's the same version of iTunes and we're using the same import settings.
    Also, I looked around all over the support page and there seems to be no way to get tech support from apple. We just use these forums and hope that other users know the answers to our questions, is that correct? Or are apple tech support people on here to answer out questions?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hey
    I figured it out. There was no iTunes Plus import setting on the version of iTunes he had back two years ago when I put all my CDs into his iTunes. So the files are in a 128mb import setting, even though it's set to iTunes Plus now. I couldn't figure out how to delete my post though, just edit it. Thanks.
