H.264 What is the best use for this? H.264 Pros & Cons?

I wanted to know since I am using DV what if any role can H.264 play in my workflow? What are the intended or best uses for this? What are H.264 pros and cons? Will it produce higher quality than DV?
As always thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post,
Sebastian

It will not make DV look better, it is a MPEG4 based compression format for material to be delivered over the web. As such, encoding your material to it it is the last step in the editing process.

  • What’s the best practice for this scenario?

    Hi,
    My users want the ability to change the WHERE and/or ORDER BY clause at runtime. They may define user preferences on each screen ( which is bind to a view object). They want to see the same records based on WHERE/ORDER BY defined on the last visit. That is why I keep the users preferences and load the screen based on that, using :
    View.setWhereClause(...);
    View.setOrderByClause(...);
    View.executeQuery();
    This works good when only one user working with the application but faced low performance when more than one user working with the application.
    What are the points to increase the performance and what is the best practice for this scenario?
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Sung,
    I am talking only about 2 users in my testing. I am sure i missed something but could not recognize that.
    This page is my custom query page including a tag to instantiate app module in stateful mode at the top <jbo:ApplicationModule..> and a tag to instantiate data source <jbo:Datasource...> and release tag at the bottom <jbo:ReleasePageResources..> and some java code in the middle(body). The java code constructed the query statement and then fires the query to set the view object based on the query statement using the above methods.
    So, I am facing very slow performance(speed) when two clients load this page at the same time. Looks like the entire application locks for others when one client load this page and fire the query. i realized the battle neck is where executeQuery() is executing.
    what do you think.
    Thanks in advance for your comments.

  • My requirement is to update 3 valuesets daily based on data coming to my staging table. What is the API used for this and how to map any API to our staging table? I am totally new to oracle and apps. Please help. Thanks!

    Hi,
    You could use FND_FLEX_LOADER_APIS.UP_VALUE_SET_VALUE to upload them from staging table (I suppose you mean value set values...).
    You can find a sample scripts if you google around.
    What do you mean "how to map any API to our staging table" ?
    You should do at least the following mapping (which column(s) in the staging table will provide these information):
    - the 3 value sets name which you're going to update/upload (I suppose these are existing value sets or which have been already created)
    - the value set values and  description
    Try to start with something and if there is any issues the community could then help... but for the time being with the description of the problem you have provided, that's the best I can do...

  • What's the best Mac for running Final Cut Pro X?

    Title says it all. What's the best Mac for running Final Cut Pro X? I'm not looking to make a feature length hollywood film. But I'd like to be able to edit video without lag.

    Yes. Begin with the fastest processor / graphics card / and as much RAM as you can afford. (As all three will become obsolete over time.)
    I started from scratch. I have a 27-inch iMac with a 3.4 G Intel Core i7. (currently the fastest processor for an iMac) I also ordered the best graphics card--AMD Ratheon HD. I ordered 16G of RAM, but recently added more RAM to equal 24G. (OWC makes good after-market RAM for iMACs.)
    Last, I ordered a flash drive / SATA hard drive combo.  (250G on flash / ITB on SATA). The OS and all of my applications run off the flash drive. (for fast start up!)
    I put all of my media and FCP projects onto the SATA hard drive.
    Now, I had the option to order a 2TB SATA. But, I realized I can always buy more external storage as I edit more and more projects. ALSO! FCPX is GREAT when it comes to editing projects on external drives! I can segregate an entire project and its media files onto a removeable drive. I simply launch FCPX, plug in the drive and--poof!--I'm ready to edit. It sees the project and the media right away. When I'm done editing, I can then send this drive to another editor (also using FCPX) or attach it to my MacBook if I want to edit the same project in the field.
    This has worked for me. I wish you luck.

  • What is the best product for keeping a mac pro running fast?

    What is the best product for keeping my mac pro running at optimal speed?

    Enough RAM. More than just so there are no pageouts.
    A fast small SSD for boot system drive that is only OS and apps and 50% free
    Backup clones of your system and data plus TimeMachine
    Avoid security suites from 3rd parties and other would be helpers (unless instructed to for a specific need and purpose).
    Replace and update older components. could be graphic card, no longer suffices wtih Lion, or causes heat and dust. And make sure that the fans cool the system properly. May need to boost the low default fan speed profile and that is one utility that can be a must. Also monitor system temp readings.
    Don't jusst idly restart after a crash or freeze, use Lion Recovery Mode and Safe Boot instead.
    Make backup clone before making updates and changes to your system.

    Hi Ashok,
    this is easy to do.
    Open Two SAP Screen with same user ID.
    Run SQL trace using ST05 transaction.Open ST05 transaction in One and make
    Trace on ,Run the report in another screen.
    Once report run is over.End the trace process and click on display trace in same ST05 transaction.There is a click button on ST05 Transaction screen to start trace
    process,End trace process and Display track process.
    The SQL trace will  give you all the table details which is used in that particular report.
    You have not mentioned about the report name so I have suggested this way.

  • Adobe v. Apple - Flash v. H.264 - what's the best format for web?

    So the iPad doesn't support flash.  I guess that means that if I upload my projects as flv's or f4v's and use a flash player then the apple obsessed people won't be able to watch my videos
    http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2010/05/02/apple-vs-adobe-is-flash-dying/
    Personally, I don't really care if flash lives or dies.  I just want to be able to publish videos that anyone can watch in a player that anyone can use without having to download a plugin.  SO, what is the best format to use?
    To date, I've been shooting my footage in HD 1920x1080i, saving my PE projects as MPEG2 HD 1080i, and then converting to f4v's.  Now I'm wondering if I should be saving them using the H.264 preset instead and then presumably some lower quality settings for the web file?  And if so, what kind of end user player should I be looking for?
    Help anyone?

    Well, unfortunately Flash was the universal format, and then Steve Jobs decided that he did not like Adobe. As most browsers on Earth were FLV playback enabled and if not, were only a quick, free download away. Now, it seems that Apple's devices will only work with flavors of MOV. One can still download and install Apple's QT Player (though several recent versions did not work well with Adobe programs - Steve Jobs sabotage?).
    Instead of coming together on universal formats/CODEC's, it seems that many wish to fragment the market to support just their products. One is at the mercy of these hardware and software companies. Producers probably should now do several versions of everything, if they wish to cover all bases. Someone will have to download and install something.
    Good luck,

  • What is the best way for this situation?

    Hi I have an xml file in my application. over a period of time i have to add few nodes to the existing xml file.
    In my business logic when a specific requirement is met i have to add one child node to the existing parent node for an existing xml file.
    what is the best way to do this? which api is the best for this?

    using DOM parser we can parse the xml file but can we write to XML file?Sure. That's the inverse operation of parsing, and it's called "serializing".
    The usual way to serialize a DOM to a file is to create a Transformer and apply the identity transformation to the DOM. However there are also third-party XML serializers that don't take that approach.I have not understood what the identity transformation mean. but i have searched for an example and found the following way to do it using Transformer. I hope what i find is right.
    Transformer tFormer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
              tFormer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "xml");
              Source source = new DOMSource(doc);
              Result result = new StreamResult(new File(url.toURI()));

  • What is the best practice for this?

    Hi,
    I have a huge package, let's say including 100 procedures.
    These procedures(with package name qualifier) are called all around the application. Now i want to divide it to 5 packages each one including 20 procedures.
    What is the best practice to do this with minimum changes in the application?

    First step before doing anything with OD is to make certain that local DNS services are correct.  To verify that, launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities on the test server, and issue the following harmless, diagnostic command:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    You'll need to enter your administrative password for the sudo to be accepted. 
    If the output from that command reports no changes are required, then an export from the original OD and an import into the test system would be typical for testing, if you trust what's in the original OD.

  • 4K footage to DVD: what are the best settings for exporting in Premiere Pro CC v7.2.2?

    Hello everyone!
    I am editing a big bunch of short 4K clips (XAVC in MP4) which will then go onto DVDs. The idea is to get as many of those clips on a DVD as possible. Using Premiere Pro 7.2.2 on Windows 8.
    What I would like to know is whether I'm actually using the best possible settings for this case, because the video exported to MPEG2-DVD doesn't look that good. Or maybe it needs to be exported to a different format and rather converted to DVD format after?
    The sequence setting are the following:
    RED Cinema
    Frame rate: 29,97 fps
    3840x2160 (16:9)
    Square pixels
    The export settings I've been using:
    MPEG2-DVD
    Aspect  ratio: 16:9
    TV Format: PAL
    Field order: progressive
    Frame rate: 25
    Video quality: 100
    Bitrate: VBR
    1, I've tried different bitrates, also setting minimum at 9, but this blows up the file size too much (as i mentioned, the idea is to get at many clips as possible on a DVD)
    GOP: M - 3, N - 15 (haven't touched those)
    Multiplexer: none (should i put DVD?)
    I'm using maximum render quality
    Have I given all the information?
    Any help will be appreciated!@

    As Ann has advised do not expect too much, you are going down a lot in quality.
    Why are you also going from NTSC to a PAL output?
    Premiere will drop frames to get from 29.97 to  25.
    PAL DVD players read NTSC discs fine as long as they are region 0
    Why are you trying to produce a DVD anyway?
    A Bluray would be far better quality.
    Also a minimum 9 is way wrong, c9.6 is the max in the spec and hence avoided as your system is trying to push the spec limits to close.
    I used to use 6 - 7.5 - 8.8 in my VBR and they looked fine, now I am all HD.

  • What are the Best settings for GEforce GTX680 & Premiere Pro CC

    I have purchased the Geforce GTX 680 mac edition and installed in my Mac Pro 2012. However, there are some settings in Premiere Pro that are a little  perplexing to me. To maximize the effectiveness of video card and get  the best render times I want to make sure my settings are correct.
    I  read that under Sequence Settings it is best to check off Maximum  Render Quality and then under Preferences > Memory I should check off  Memory instead of Performance. Am I correct in doing this?

    I own a Mid 2012 Mac Pro which had a ATI Radeon HD 5870 and replaced it with a GeForce GTX 680 bought from Amazon in the UK.
    Card Installation - first issue I had was getting the old ATI card out, after undid the obvious screws it just wouldn't come out, so I read the Mac manual reminding me to press the button on the grey plastic card holder which moves a metal bar out the way, then it came out easily! Once card was installed I switched on the power and the Mac stayed on the grey Apple logo screen for 20 minutes. Called Nvidia in Germany and got a guy who only knew Windows who told me to reinstall the old card, delete the ATI drivers and try again, such a Windows tech support response! I knew this was not how Apple work, so I searched the forums and it turned out I need to fully turn the power off at the wall for both the Mac Pro and my 27" Apple Cinema Display as they seem to retain some settings from the previous setup. Once I did that, the Mac booted up correctly :-)
    CUDA Drivers: It is very odd there is no mention of having to install the CUDA drivers in any of the documentation you get from Nvidia, but thanks to this forum thread I knew to go to the CUDA drivers page at http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/mac-driver-archive-uk.html
    and downloaded the CUDA driver, it installed and when I ran my old premiere projects with an embed After Effects clip in them, unlike before wiht the ATI the timeline rendered them in real time, so that is a major improvement.
    Dilema: only question left is whether to be using the CUDA settings or OpenCL option in the Premiere Pro CC > Projects Settings tab?

  • I really need to speed up my IMAC.  I purchased a new external drive specifically formatted for apple.  I also would like to move some other media (movies and music) to this external drive.  What is the best method for this?

    Please help...I need to delete iphoto pictures and back up to external drive without losing pictures. I have the external drive and would like to start this process.  Can you help?

    Formatted for Mac is not a format - for iPhoto you MUST verify that it is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled)
    and putting your iPhoto library on an external drive is NOT a backup - you MUST have a good backup plan like Time Machine running or you are 100% guaranteed to lose your photos sooner or later
    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive
    other media questions need to be ask in the forum for the software you use for them - this forum is only for iPhoto and the above instructions are only for iPhoto
