H264 - Can anyone beat these settings for quality ?

I am preparing a couple of projects for the web.
My task is to get my exported MOVs to the web guy in the best quality and then he can work with them and convert them to FLV.
I am using H264 (settings below).
Can anyone confirm that these settings are the best possible to use to get the highest quality, or suggest something else?
File Extension: mov
Estimated file size: unknown
Audio Encoder
IMA 4:1, Stereo (L R), 48.000 kHz
Video Encoder
Format: QT
Width: 720
Height: 480
Pixel aspect ratio: NTSC CCIR 601/DV
Crop: None
Padding: None
Frame rate: (100% of source)
Frame Controls On:
Retiming: (Better) Motion Compensated
Resize Filter: Linear Filter
Deinterlace Filter: Better (Motion Adaptive)
Adaptive Details: On
Antialias: 0
Detail Level: 0
Field Output: Progressive
Codec Type: H.264
Multi-pass: On, frame reorder: On
Pixel depth: 24
Spatial quality: 100
Min. Spatial quality: 25
Key frame interval: 24
Temporal quality: 50
Min. temporal quality: 25

Looks pretty good to me. Have you read this article before? http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/h264.html
You know Flash Player 9 supports H.264? No need to re-encode to flv, if you can avoid it. Depends if you want to support earlier versions of Flash Player.
I would strongly recommend doing some short tests before you start encoding everything. It will save you a lot of time doing some short 10-20 second tests (just set in/out points in the Compressor Preview window). I would maybe try setting the keyframe rate to Automatic too.
I see you have frame controls activated. If you would like to save time, you could try this tip (same principle): http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7309534#7309534
Web compression is all about testing to find the optimal settings for best possible quality/filesize ratio.
If you want the final result to end up as the best quality flv file, I would recommend encoding directly from your source to flv. Going through a heavily compressed long-GOP format like H.264, before encoding to an other heavily compressed format is not a good idea. You would want your video to go through as few generations as possible to maintain quality.

Can anyone beat this? now waited over 9 months for...

Can anyone beat this? now waited over 9 months for BT to fix my BB

I have thanks, I was just answering 06jpearce
This is what I wrote:
Over 9 months and 20 openreach appointments and my broadband is still not fixed. They have tried the "put up with it or we will just say your line is too long and we will stop all broadband service" about 3 times now, but when I point-out my next door neighbour is with TalkTalk, and their BB is fine, and also point out I've had much faster BB for years, they back down.
My speed has gone from 2Mbps to 384Kbps, and every time the phone rings the broadband disconnects.
I am an IT engineer that works from home and about 5 times a day I have to tell my customers that my BB has dropped out and then I explain that I've been waiting 9 months for BT to fix it.
Also I used to set up my customers on BT Broadband but obviously I haven't been doing that for the last 9 months.
I'm sure that the fault is in the old aluminium cable that Openreach don't want to touch (in fact that is what the last engineer told me) .
When you add up the cost of all these engineers calls, and the loss of business from the bad name you are getting, it would have been far cheaper to replace the cable.

Palm Pro on AT&T I can't access internet, anyone have ATT settings for internet?

So I have a new PALM PRO, I love it so far. HoweverI can't access the internet when out and about. Only on WIFI. I have the H showing it's receiving a data connection, however the device won't connect to the internet. If I click internet explorer, it's a white screen, if I click my www.skyfire.com browser, (which I love) it says trying to get a connection etc. So, I called ATT, they don't have the PRO in their system yet and could only help so much. DOES ANYONE have the settings for ATT so I can put them in, proxy, etc, whatever needed to make a internet connection to my wireless provider? (ATT)
THANKS!

Anyone have these settings in their Quicktime?

Anyone have these settings in their Quicktime? I got this tip from Worldstart.com this AM. I have this problem with I-Tunes when a song starts to play sometimes it stutters,skips. I tried to get QuickTime settings she tals about but I don't have them in Win QT 7.5
Tip #3174 - iTunes Skips
Every once in awhile, my iTunes music skips. It's fine when I'm listening to the music on my iPod, but if I'm just using my computer, it all skips. What's going on?
A:
Okay, so we have established that iTunes is a great musical discovery, but it leaves much to be desired when it starts to skip. Nobody likes to listen to their music with a bunch of stutters in between, am I right?! So, let's look at some reasons why iTunes might be doing this to you.
You can use the task manager to shut down other programs to see if that stops the skipping, but that's not really too convenient for anyone.
A lot of times, the skipping problem lies within the QuickTime program that you need to have in order for iTunes to work. There are a couple settings you can change in QuickTime to combat the stuttering issue. To do this, make sure your iTunes is shut down and go to Start, Control Panel. Once in there, double click on the QuickTime icon. You must be in the classic Control Panel view for this to work.
(Tab is called QuickTime settings,I don't have in mine, only Preferences)
Once in there, use the drop down menu at the very top of the dialogue box and choose Sound Out. This will allow you to work within the sound output elements of your QuickTime.
(These also are tabs within QuickTime I don't have, and I have the very latest 7.5 QuickTime installed)
Now, under the choice that says "Choose a device for playback," use the drop down menu and select "waveOut." You can then just close the QuickTime window. You don't need to press OK or anything, just completely close it out.
Next, restart your iTunes and your skipping problem should be resolved. You can start listening to your music again, while doing your other work as well, without any further problems. Like I said before, you should try this little suggestion before you go out and get more RAM, but if the problem persists, that may be just what you'll have to do. Either way, it's worth it for your music, right?!
~ Erin

That site is either a bit inaccurate or describes an earlier version of QuickTime. Go to the QuickTime control panel, double-click on it to open it (it will indeed open QuickTime Preferences), click on the Audio tab, and check the box that says "Safe Mode (waveOut only)". That has in some cases cured the "stuttering".
Good luck.

Can anyone recommend plug-ins for vocals?

Can anyone recommend plug-ins for vocals? I'm looking for an average "radio" sound. How can I get that?
Thanks
Anya
imac 20 inch 2 gig Ram Mac OS X (10.4.7) apogee + miroslav + looking for great midi controler

well
Let's start again:
I use imac and ensemble by apogee as my audio
interface with and rode ntk microphone. that should
give me a preatty decent sound, but it comes out
kinda hollow and unnatural.
Hi AnyaS,
It seems like the room you are in might be adding it's "sound" and making your vocal sound like it is going through a tunnel,or "hollow" sounding.
Where are you doing your vocal recording? When you sing,do you hear your voice come back at you funny,like from a wall,or like you hear a faint "echo" or repeat in the room?
I could help you,but without actually listening what you are talking about it is almost impossible to know what problems you might be encountering,and also if you can point to a reference CD or artist that you are trying to sound like,I can't really give you concise advise as to what to do to get you there.Do you have any way of showing us some of the sound you are getting so we can listen to it? That can help a lot more than describing in words what you are not liking about your voacl sound.Again a lot of this is subjective use of language,so when you say "hollow sound" it could mean something else to me.
And as to the radio quality - I mean sound more round
and defined - someting that I could send to radio
and/or AR.
Well,I think you are putting the cart ahead of the horse here...try to get your sound "there" to where you like it first,before trying to be judged by "radio and A&R" people.
I am not sure how I can improve:
- better/additional hardware or
- better mastering/playing with software (I have IK
studio bundle - that I have only utilized so far as
sound source).
I am willing to spend additional $1000 if needed but
rather not.
I think you do not need to throw money at the problem...that never usually works.It is better to understand what sound you want to get first,and then try to get there.
I'll listen to what you have posted,but if you can have a link to a vocal without ANY processing,i.e. as you record it in your usual place,that would help more than a full mix of your music.I can tell easier what to do if your vocal is by itself.
you can listen to working draft here:

sorry I don't know how to create a link here.
Thank you for your help.

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Hi all, I upgraded my MBP to Lion , but on the screen where i need to type my password, click on my photo and it does not appear the place for me to type my password and it stay stuck there. Can anyone solve this problem for me?

Reboot the machine holding Command and r keys down, you'll boot into Lion Recovery Partition
In there will be Disk Utility, use that to select your Lion OS X Partition and Repair Permissions.
After that is done reboot the machine and see if you can log in.
If not repeat the above steps to get into Lion Recovery, get online and reinstall Lion again, it will overwrite the installed version and hopefully after that it wil work.
Reboot and try again.
If not follow my steps to create a Snow Leopard Data Recovery drive, then option boot from it and grab a copy of your files off the machine.
Then reinstall all your programs onto the external drive like setting up a new machine, then use Disk Utility to erase the entire internal boot drive (select the drive media on the far left, not the partiton slightly indented) format Option: GUID , 1 partition OS X Extended and then use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the external to the newly formatted internal drive. Once that is finished reboot and disconnect the external drive.
Once you go that, boot into Snow Leopard and update to 10.6.8, use the AppStore and option click on Purchases and download Lion again and install.
Lots of work, but there is no Lion disks.

I am sorry but this isn't something that you can set. The system has timeouts built into the code.

Thanks for the advice. Just don't want to waste money on apps trying to get the right on. Not looking to do too much, just add filters maybe create a pie chart. Will the app you mentioned give added sums at the end of the spreadsheet like it would on the windows version?

Can anyone explain data usage for streaming music like Pandora

According to Pandora when you're using it on your phone it uses 64 kbps or roughly 28 MB per hour roughly 36 hours of use to use 1 GB. I'm not sure if the Premium version is the same bitrate.

Can anyone explain with senairio for textvariables with replacement path?

can anyone explain with senairio for textvariables with replacement path?

Hi
your query contains 3 columns...
column1(year executed by user) column2(year-1) column3(year-2).
when user enter 2006 key figures headings should appear like this
2006 2005 2004...
How can you solve this??
so create a text variable of replacement path..replace with object year..
so you will get the above out put..
you can concatenate like
actuals 2006 actuals 2005 actuals 2004...
Hope it clears...
please assign points if useful
Thanks

Can anyone recommend a process for moving just my OS and Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom to the SSD?

I have an early 2011 MBP running Mountain Lion. I just removed the superdrive and added an SSD. I want to use it to boot from and also run Photoshop and Lightroom from. Can anyone recommend a process for moving my OS and those programs to the SSD?

I'm assuming your doing this because of data you don't want pernament on the SSD as they can' be scrubbed like hard drives can.
Disconnect any other drives.
1: Format the SSD 1 partition, click the box, option GUID and OS X extended journaled as the format.
2: Download Carbon Copy Cloner.
3: Clone your MacintoshHD partition to a blank powered external drive also formatted the same as above.
4: Hold option/alt key and boot the machine (wired or built in keyboard) and then select the clone to boot from,
5: Once in the clone, click it's drive name and change the name if it's the same as the OS X boot volume.
6: On the clone, head to System Preferences > Accounts and create a new Admin account.
7: If you need to move files between accounts on the clone, see this. Combine two+ Users Accounts on the same machine (be careful that your selecting the correct clones other account)
8: Once your moving files on the clone is complete, then log into the new user account and delete the old user account.
9: Use Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the clone to the SSD.
10: Use Disk Utiltiy to repair permissions on all drives.
The SSD should be moved to the HD slot and the HD to the optical slot and used as a file drive.
CCC has a option to not include certain folders like the other user account you don't want, however I tend not to recommend things that are not too far out of line with Apple's ways of doing things as it usually results in bad things occuring. Somewhere in OS X it's recorded of that other user account, so it might still show up in logins and such.
Also you may want to transfer some files to the other account, so that's why I recommend this method.
Good Luck
