FLVPlayback and preloader size difference

Hello,
I have put a preloader on a movie that plays a FLV (preloader on frame 1 and the FLVPlayback on frame 2). The problem is that the preloader thinks that the file size is only 38Kb and the FLV is 27,000Kb. So how do I make the preloader read the size of the FLV?
Thank you for your time,
Bernie

you need to create a preloader for the flv. i recently answered someone's inquiry about how to do that in this forum.

Pixels and document size differences in Illustrator compared to Photoshop

Why is the pixel ratio of a project in illustrator different than that of the same pixel ratio of a project in Photoshop? Example: A project can in Illustrator can have an artboard of 950px X 950px and be 12in and in Photoshop that same pixel ratio will be 4 3/4in.

The rulers in Illustrator are always with fixed ratio of 1 inch = 72 pixels (72 ppi), you can check this by right clicking on the ruler and choosing inches or pixels and you will see that 950 px will be 13.9 inches and not 12 inches as you stated.
The ratio of the rulers in Photoshop depends on the ppi resolution of the image set by the user in the Image Size dialog box. If choose Image > Image size, and set the Resolution to 72 pixels/inch (ppi) then the ratio of the rulers in Photoshop will match Illustrator. If you set it to something else they will not, in your case with an image with sides of 4.75 inches in Photoshop the Resolution will be 200 ppi in order to contain 950 pixels per side.
When you save an image from Photoshop that contains metadata it has information about the size of the document in inches and pixels. Illustrator will place such images with the size of the inches not the pixels as indicated on the Illustrator rulers, internally however the image will contain all the pixels as indicated next to the PPI on the Control bar under the main menu when image is selected. These internal (actual) image pixels will be used when printing and when zooming on screen to render the image. Also if you copy from Photoshop and paste in Illustrator, it also will paste with the size of the inches and not the pixels (at least this is how it works with CS5 on Windows)
If the placed image is without metadata Illustrator will always place it assuming 72 px = 1 inch (72 ppi). You can check that if in Photoshop save an image using Save for Web and Devices and choose None for Metadata.

SQL Server replication and size differences of source and destination databases

I set up snapshot replication for a DB between two SQL instances. On the source instance, the DB shows as 106612.56MB with 34663.75MB as available free space. I expected that the replica would then end up being 71948.81MB (106612.56 - 34663.75
because it wouldn't replicate the white space). The resultant replica database is showing as 35522.94MB. The required data appears to be present in the replicated DB as the SSRS reports that use it are able to find the data they look for. But
why the large discrepancy in size between the source and replicated DB? The replicated DB is less than 1/2 the size of the source DB. I've searched around and can't seem to find any explanation. I realize this isn't mirroring so the DBs will
not be identical in size but I did not expect to see such a large difference between the two. I am replicating all almost all articles (tables, stored procs, etc.) with the exception of a handful of stored procedures and user-defined functions that either
reference invalid column names in a table (vendor bug) or reference another DB that is not present on the replica's instance. I would expect these 4-5 articles can not account for a 37000 MB size difference between the two DBs.
Please note that this has nothing to do with transaction log size. I am specifically talking about the database size and am not looking at the size that combines both DB and TxLog size.
Any insight?

Another factor could be that on the publisher the data is distributed through pages, paragraphs and extents. Depending on your fill factor and the amount of deletes and your datatype, there could be space in the pages, paragraphs and extents which have not
been reclaimed.
During the bcp process which is part of the snapshot application process on the subscriber all the data will be in the tables in a contiguous fashion. I would suspect this would be why you have the difference in space usage.

Font Size Difference between Exe and Labview IDE

I'm stumped on the following issue and surprizinglycan't find any references that are similar on this forum.
I've developed an application which, when built to an Exe, has different font sizes than when executed on the same computer in the Labview Integrated Development Environment. In each instance the screen resolution is the same. I've used the "Application Font". I'm having trouble figuring why the font would render differently in each case. Of possible signifigance is that I'm running the Exe by simply browsing to the folder where the build procedure drops it instead of building an installation.
I've attached one of the most glaring examples that shows the rendering in each case.
I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction to resolve this issue.

Hi Doctor,
two notes:
for the font size differences: I would try to change the font settings
to a more 'specific' font like Arial 14pt. The application font is set
somewhere in an ini-file and the setting may change with the
environment (IDE vs. exe-rt).
for your attachment: please convert pictures to jpg or png. This will
reduce size by orders of magnitude :-) And please crop them, unless you
have a very (VERY) beautiful desktop background picture!

File size difference between DNG Converter and Lightroom Beta 4

Hi,
I want to go the all-DNG route and am trying several things ATM. I want my files to be as small as possible, thus I disable previews and RAW embedding and enable compression in DNG Converter. In Lightroom, there are no options at all. What I do get, are pretty amazing file size differences:
Original .NEF as it came from my D70s: ~5MB
.DNG created by DNG Converter: ~1MB
.DNG created by Lightroom: ~4MB
The very small file size in DNG Converter is the one that bother's me most. I get these small files from time to time. I checked both the DNG and the NEF in Photoshop, and they seem to be identical. So my question is: What triggers these small file sizes? Do I loose anything? Or is the Lightroom DNG converter not as advanced as the stand alone version?
Maybe this helps: I get the ridicolous small files for very dull subjects that tell the computer scientist in me that it should be easily compressable by common compression algorithms.
Thanks for any pointers,
Markus

Thanks for the hint! It did make me revisit those files and now I see the reason for the small file sizes: The Apple Finder does note update the file size view once a file was added to a folder. Here's what I did:
Opened a folder full of .NEFs in detail view in Finder.
Converted them using DNG Converter
Looked at the sizes of the files as they were shown in the Finder window allready open.
Unfortunately, those file sizes are not correct. If I open a new Finder window of the same folder, file sizes are correctly reported as between 3.5 and 5 MB.

Size difference between 60GB and 80GB?

Is there a size difference between the 60GB and 80GB iPod with videos? I was looking at a Belkin Tunepower power source for my iPod and it said it has sleeves for 30GB and 60GB iPod videos, but I just checked the Apple store and they only sell 30 and 80 gig iPods. Will my 80GB fit the 60GB sleeve?

Your 80 GB ought to fit the 60 GB case, since the exact dimensions of both iPods are identical:
60 GB: 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.55 inches
80 GB: 4.1 x 2.4 x 0.55 inches
Of course, if you are using a 30 GB, that would be different, since the 30 GB is a little thinner than the 60 and 80 GB models of Fifth Generations.

Difference between batch and lot size

What is the difference between batch size and lot size. How do these quantities relate to production planning & machine capacity planning.
Regards

Hi,
Lot size: Some times specific materials are not referred individually but are represented in groups or lots.
When we maintian BOM/production version/routing it is sometime convinenit to maintain compoenent qty / operaion times ect.. for speciifc lots .. we also call them base qty.
we can create different master data for different lot sizes and it is consider in auto selection of this master data in production orders.
MRP can also intiate procurement / production in speciifc lots and this lot size in size is maintained in material master ans lot sizing procedure is maintianed in MRP customiziation.
Batch Size: some times batch size and lot size can be interheprited same in busienss langauge but they have fundamental
difference from SAP point of view. .
In SAP Batch is homoginious non reproducible Unit of material. The batch zise depends on GR qty of the specific batch.

HUGE size difference b/t iTunes library and iTunes Music folder

Why the huge disparity between the size iTunes reports for my music library and the size of the "iTunes Music Library" folder calculated by Finder?
I'm trying to figure out how much space I actually use to see if I can cram my digital life into a 256 mb MacBook Air. At first, I thought it must be including mobile apps and videos, but those are in separate folders. Where is that extra 57 GB coming from?!?

Right after I clicked "post," I noticed the "Movies" folder inside the iTunes Music Library folder. That accounts for 41.51 GB, but that still leaves another 15 or so that I'm still scratching my head over.

Problem with FLVPlayback and component

First of all I had problem with control component. they are not working so i just named that ppo and change the visibility to false to get rid of problem!
ppo.visible=false;
Question1
(is there anyway to solve the problem? I mean to match the controlbar with screen of FLVplayer.)
Question2
what is the difference btw Flvplayback and FLVplayback 2.5 ?
Question3
whenever I click in btn1 it plays the flv.but sometimes it has no action so i click again and suddenly it plays the 001.flv twice and simultanously(even more than twice!)
how can I solve my problem ?

what are you calling the '..controlbar' and what are you calling the '...control component'?
Question2

remove the click listener so you can only click once. then you may need to wait if testing online.

InDesign Transparency Effects - Problems with Image Quality and File Size

Hello,
We are experiencing new problems exporting InDesign files to PDF.
To summarize, though our largest workflow is to create files for offset printing, we also deliver our work to PDF for mounting on a website so our clients can download directly from the web. Our new problem is Transparency Effects, and creating a PDF that will both have a high quality (or resolution), and be a small file size.
We are working with multiple page documents (24 to 48 pages), and would very much like to work with InDesign Transparency Effects. However, after spending much time testing a variety of PDF types, we are finding there is a radical difference between quality and file size. I was curious if anyone has had these problems, and if there is a simple answer. InDesign is an incredible program that allows us to design on the fly with Transparency Effects, but, if we are going to experience these problems, we will have to eliminate these wonderful tools.
Can you help me or lead me to information online that will help.
Thank you,
Lain

Please don't post in multiple forums. Your question has nothing to do with the PDF language and specifications, but rather PDF workflow or InDesign. I've responded to your other posting and am closing this thread.

DASYLAB QUERIES on Sampling Rate and Block Size

HELP!!!! I have been dwelling on DASYLAB for a few weeks regarding certain problems faced, yet hasn't come to any conclusion. Hope that someone would be able to help.Lots of thanks!
1. I need to have more data points, thus I increase the sampling rate(SR). When sampling rate is increased, Block size(BS) will increase correspondingly.
For low sampling rate (SR<100Hz) and Block size of 1, the recorded time in dasy and the real experimental time is the same. But problem starts when SR>100Hz for BS=1. I realized that the recorded time in dasylab differs from the real time. To solve the time difference problem, I've decided to use "AUTO" block size.
Qn1: Is there any way to solve the time difference problem for high SR?
Qn2: For Auto Block Size, Is the recorded result in dasylab at one time moment the actual value or has it been overwritten by the value from the previous block when AUTO BS is chosen.
2. I've tried getting the result for both BS=1 and when BS is auto. Regardless of the sampling rate, the values gotten when BS=1 is always larger than that of Auto Block size. Qn1: Which is the actual result of the test?
Qn2: Is there any best combination of the block size and sampling rate that can be used?
Hope someone is able to help me with the above problem.
Thanks-a-million!!!!!
Message Edited by JasTan on 03-24-2008 05:37 AM

Generally, the DASYLab sampling rate to block size ratio should be between 2:1 and 10:1.
If your sample rate is 1000, the block size should be 500 to no smaller than 100.
Very large block sizes that encompass more than 1 second worth of data often cause display delays that frustrate users.
Very small block sizes that have less than 10 ms of data cause DASYLab to bog down.
Sample rate of 100 samples / second and a block size of 1 is going to cause DASYLab to bog down.
There are many factors that contribute to performance, or lack there of - the speed and on-board buffers of the data acquisition device, the speed, memory, and video capabilities of the computer, and the complexity of the worksheet. As a result, we cannot be more specific, other than to provide you with the rule of thumb above, and suggest that you experiment with various settings, as you have done.
Usually the only reason that you want a small block size is for closed loop control applications. My usual advice is that DASYLab control is around 1 to 10 samples/second. Much faster, and delays start to set in. If you need fast, tight control loops, there are better solutions that don't involve Microsoft Windows and DASYLab.
Q1 - without knowing more about your hardware, I cannot answer the question, but, see above. Keep the block size ratio between 2:1 and 10:1.
Q2 - without knowing more about your hardware, and the driver, I'm not sure that I can fully answer the question. In general, the DASYLab driver instructs the DAQ device driver to program the DAQ device to a certain sampling rate and buffer size. The DASYLab driver then retrieves the data from the intermediate buffers, and feeds it to the DASYLab A/D Input module. If the intermediate buffers are too small, or the sample rate exceeds the capability of the built-in buffers on the hardwar, then data might be overwritten. You should have receive warning or error messages from the driver.
Q3 - See above.
It may be that your hardware driver is not configured correctly. What DAQ device, driver, DASYLab version, and operating system are you using? How much memory do you have? How complex is your worksheet? Are you doing control?
Have you contacted your DASYLab reseller for more help? They should know your hardware better than I do.

Where are the jvm min and max sizes set?

Guess I should know this. EAC, Workbench, dgraph - were are the minimum and maximum sizes of these jvms set? I don't see them set up as part of the command line arguments.
TIA

I am sure you are correct, but I see this when I do "ps"

which is why I say "dgraph process".
It is a process so it shows up in a ps command (or top, etc.) but it's not a Java process. The MDEX Engine is written in C++, not Java, and it runs in its own "container" unlike something such as the EAC which runs inside of Tomcat.
And on the first response I don't understand the differenece between PlatformServices or EAC. I always think of these as being the same.
Probably just a semantic difference. Platform Services includes the EAC among its components (another would be Forge) and is the software package you install. EAC is a part of that and it runs inside of a Tomcat container that is installed when you install Platform Services.
Hope that helps...

Database size difference.

Hi how can i check the database size difference.
I have one cube , which is about 2GB.
loaded some data to that cube ,want to find how much more it got increased in size ?
is this the right way to check from EAS
Database -> Right click edit -> Properties ->Storage
Add the index size values and Data size values to get the database size.

Yes -- although you should understand that this "raw" number can and will change with a lot of events.
I presume that the reason is so you can get a good feel for how much disk space you need down the road, or backup needs, etc...
If so, then it's good to have a basic understanding of the size so you can predict growth patterns and plan your needs. However, aside from this, there is little to be gained from knowing that the database "grew" by any given amount for any given process. The increase in size can come from fragmentation, for instance (or more accurately, a part of that increase is likely due to additional fragmentation).
Were you looking for something apart from this?

SaveForWeb file size difference of scripted versus manually created

I've got a VB script that uses Save For Web to make thumbnail images from a folder of larger images. Most perplexing is the file size difference of these thumbnails using the script versus making them one by one manually.
The thumbnails are 180x120 pixels. Using Save for Web from the file menu to manually create jpegs (50 quality, optimized, no profile, no progressive) the typical resultant file sizes are 9 to 14 KB. Using the script, the file sizes end up from 20KB to 30KB! Additionally, if the original file has any metadata (caption, contact info, copyright, etc) the manual process strips all the metadata out except the copyright notice, which is fine. Using the script however, all metadata remains intact!!
Can anyone explain why this is occurring? I'd sure like the smallest file size possible. Am I missing a parameter in the ExportSaveForWeb options?
Here's this save section of the code:
     Dim sfwOptions As New ExportOptionsSaveForWeb
     sfwOptions.Format = psJPEGSave
     sfwOptions.Quality = 50
     sfwOptions.Optimized = True
     sfwOptions.IncludeProfile = False
     SaveFile = OutputFolder & ImageNumber & ".jpg"
     docRef.Export SaveFile, PsExportType.psSaveForWeb, sfwOptions
Thanks in advance for any insights and guidance.
(BTW, I get a similar file size disparity with javascript too although they end up a tad smaller than the VB script, go figure...)
Tom
PS - The VB Scripting Guide has the wrong name for the Export Document method. It is not "ExportDocument" but rather, simply "Export". Hopefully this tip will save someone hours and hours of frustration and confusion ;-)

Eureka, I found the issue! Now pass the ********...
In the options in the Save for Web window (the two small gray arrows next to the Preset drop down list), on one of the panels there is a checkbox to Preserve Metadata. This was unchecked. Apparently, it was not seen as unchecked when running the script yet behaved accordingly when I did a manual save. Checking this box and clicking apply, run a manual save, then unchecking the box and clicking apply appeared to "reset" it to not save metadata (other than copyright info) either when saving manually or then using the script.
Case closed.

IPhoto09 Export has both a "JPEG quality" and a "Size" option

In iPhoto09 Export has both a "JPEG quality" and a "Size" option. What is the difference? iPhoto Help does not clarify. Size seeems to constrain the size of photo on screen, and it is not stretchable. 300 dpi no matter what options are selected.

Jpeg Quality is the amount of compression applied to the file.
Size is the dimensions of the shot - length by breadth - measured in pixels.
There is no dpi setting, nor any default setting for dpi. Dpi is sent when you decide the dimensions of the photo when you print.
