Having trouble converting dvd-rw vr to a format for idvd 3

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to convert my dvd-rw vr dvd i burned to a format I can edit in either idvd 3 or imovie 3? I have mpeg stream clip but it is a bit confusing for this novice.

What does "vr" refer to? To convert DVD files you'll need to have Apple's mpeg plugin ($20 if you haven't purchased it as part of Apple's pro software, etc.) along with MPEG Streamclip. Here's an article about the alternatives:

You'd be converting the files into a format for iMovie (DV Stream, otherwise known as .dv) if you're wanting to do any editing.

Use MPEG Streamclip (free) to convert the DVD files to QuickTime formats.

I'm having troubles converting my raw files from Nikon D5200 (NEF) to DNG. I tried using Lightroom 4, but it didn't identify the folder containing the files. So i downloaded the latest DNG converter but that too didn't identify the files kept in the folder location. So I downloaded DNG converter v7.3 for D5200. It identifies the folder and files; but it is giving me parsing error on trying to convert files. I'm running Windows Vista Home Edition SP1. Kindly advise. Thank you.

I probably missed this detail in what you’ve posted, but do you see the thumbnails of the three cameras’ raw files in Finder if you don’t convert to DNG?
What has happened in the past is that the Apple raw interpreter doesn’t read thumbnails of DNGs it doesn’t like, where at least one thing it didn’t used to like was embedded lens corrections for mirrorless cameras. Are the Olympus and Panasonic mirrorless—meaning there is no optical viewfinder and everything is seen on an LCD screen or perhaps an electronic view finder? If so the reason these are different is that the camera is doing the lens distortion corrections automatically and this information is stored in the raw files and in the DNGs but Apple doesn’t know how to use these embedded lens corrections or doesn’t know how to read the newer DNG spec that does allow for this information to be embedded in the DNG, at least.
Apple could just extract the embedded jpg preview and ignore the other parts of the file it doesn’t understand, but it apparently doesn’t do this.
What I’m not sure about is if the Apple raw interpreter still has this problem or if you’re on an older system without the latest updates for camera raw decoding by Apple.

I'm having trouble converting my RAW files to jpegs. Even though my RAW files are 90MB plus, the jpegs when converted are only around 6MB. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks, A

Dear Forum,
I realise this isn’t necessarily your problem, buy I’m having trouble converting my RAW files to jpegs.
Even though my RAW files are 90MB plus, the jpegs when converted are only around 6MB.
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
A

HHi Barbara, thanks for replying to my post.
No there's nothing wrong with the Jpegs, but I want to srart uploading images for sale in Alamy, but they say they must be a minimum of 17mb un compressed. Does that mean that at 6mb compressed from 90mb they'd be acceptable?
thanks,

Having trouble converting array to spreadsheet string, storing the file and coverting back to array with complex numbers

I am working with a network analyzer. I have arrays made of 5 columns the first consisting of an integer and the next four consisting of complex numbers. I am converting the array into a spreadsheet string and then saving the file using the write characters to a file VI. That seems to work well as when I open the file in Excel all the data is there. However when I try to reverse the process, open file and convert back to array, I loose some of the data. Specifically the imaginary parts of my complex numbers are all going to zero. I have narrowed down the problem to be in the conversion from spreadsheet string to array and vice versa. I
think the problem may be with the 'format' input to the VI. I do not have an adequate resource for this so I am not sure what to put in to accomplish my task. Any takers?

Hi Biz
I don't think there is a direct way of converting a complex number to a
string, so when you convert the array to a spreadsheet string, the
numbers would be converted to real data.
However, you could try separating the real and imaginary parts using the
"Numeric: Complex to Re/Im" function, and then store these - either in
separate files or in adjacent columns/rows in the same file. Then, when
you read in the data again, use the "Numeric: Re/Im to Complex" function
to put the two "halves" together.
If you actually want Excel to interpret the numbers as imaginary, then
you'll probably want to create a string for each complex number of the
form "Re + Im*i" (after separating the Re and Im parts), by using
"String:Format into String" with 2 numeric inputs and the format string
"%f+%fi".
Reading the data back into Labview then would require splitting the
string into the 2 pieces by using "Stringcan from String" with 2
numeric outputs (smae precision as original numbers specified by the 2
Default Value inputs) and the same format string "%f+%fi", and then using
the above-mentioned "Numeric: Re/Im to Complex" function. It worked for
me, so if you can't follow what I am describing, send me an email and I
can email you what I did (LV 5.1.1).

How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that it can be played and streamed from my Mac?

How can I convert DVD- video into Apple's format so that I can play the content on my Mac and also stream it to my Apple TV? A few years ago, I transferred all of my home videos onto DVD but now would really like to put these onto my Mac and stream them through Apple TV to watch on the "big screen". Any advice would be most welcome!! Thanks

MPEG Streamclip.
Apple do not have their "own" format. You need to convert your DVDs to H.264 though.

Converting a video to mpeg-2 format for a TV station. Format profile set to "main@main" required. How do I do that? Help!

I am converting a video to mpeg-2 format for a TV station and they require me to have a format profile set to "main@main." How do I do that? Help!

Main@main aka MP@ML (main profile @ main level) is the conformance point for most
cable and satellite TV systems.
The station should be able to supply you with specific specs but more than likely they are conforming to what DG deliverable specs also are for MPG-2. One of the big things is in the Xtras tab of the setting.
You must have the YUV 4:2:2 box checked. The caveat being you will not be able to check the files playback on your system. To my knowledge QT/Mac has yet to come up with a way to playback these files(you can play them but there will be no picture).

I own an iPod Classic. In iTunes, some podcast videos cant be played on teh iPod, so I set it to convert the video to the right format for the iPod. It used to work perfectly, but now for some reason, it doesnt convert properly! When I play the video, it is just a white screen, but the sound can be heard. Can anyone help??????

Your source video file is probably muxed.
Neither QT Pro or iTunes has the ability to successfully encode a muxed video file with audio. You'll end up with video and no audio.
See: iPod plays video but not audio of some exported files.
You'll need to use some other third-party software to do the conversion. There's a handful of software available. Just search the forums and you'll find many titles mentioned.
Try MPEG Streamclip.

Having trouble converting a string to a double

Im having problems converting a string to a double in my jsp pages, i have pasted part of the code that is causing the problem. Just a note, i have imported the java.lang.* classes also
while ( rs.next() )
String price = rs.getString("price");
sPrice = double.parseDouble(price);
out.println("<TD>$" + decimalFormat.format(sPrice) + " </TD>");
An error occurred at line: 140 in the jsp file: /cs399/AddToShoppingCart.jsp
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.1.29\work\Standalone\localhost\_\cs399\AddToShoppingCart_jsp.java:277: class expected
sPrice = double.parseDouble("price");
^

double is a primitive. You want java.lang.Double, with a capital "D":
sPrice = Double.parseDouble(price);MOD

Having trouble with Dreamweaver and fireworks willing to pay for support

I'm new to the forum and i was hoping to get some help with
dreamweaver and fireworks.
I built a site on my own using dreamweaver 3 years ago but
have forgotten almost everything. I am planning on building a new
web site and have been messing with dreamweaver for over a week
trying to figure it out, with little success. I bought a web
building package years ago that included fireworks, dreamweaver,
freehand and maybe more, but i lost my books on dreamweaver and
fireworks somehow.
Anyways, I was trying to learn dreamweaver 3 and fireworks
and was having a lot of trouble with it. The dreamweaver bible
assumes you know how to make a navigation bar using fireworks and
that simply isnt the case for me. So I need help with that.
Also, i have been having trouble with my template. This is
how you save your basic page correct? For some reason it doesnt
save the whole page for me. I figured out the editable regions
part, I think, but since i didnt know how to make a navigation bar
I made my own links out of text, and this part isnt saving with the
template.
I have a lot more questions but i think ive taken enough of
your time. I am willing to pay someone to help me build this site,
i cant afford a lot but i think my questions are pretty basic.
Thanks

There is a recent thread on the FW forum that may interest
you - it's called
"Firworks and HTML". The advice there applies in your case,
too.
One problem with your use of DW3 is this -
the browser world has changed quite a bit in the almost 10
years since DW3
was released. Some (many?) of the behaviors in DW3 simply
won't work any
more because of these (significant) changes. Are you
absolutely locked into
using DW3?

Having trouble getting waf to create a pc file for pkg-config

Hello Arch Linux forums!
After successfully building and installing some monome tools on my debian machine, I thought I'd migrate over to developing things on arch linux.
However, I'm having trouble building my project because pkg-config cannot find libmonome after a fresh build. It complains that there's no libmonome.pc in my $PKG_CONFIG_PATH. Sure enough, libmonome.pc does not exist, while it does on my debian machine.
I suspect it's some sort of permissions / path issue that I need to account for, but I'm unaware as to where to start looking. Has anyone else used waf and encountered similar issues?
Thanks in advance!

Well the configuration file you chose does not allow users created in NetWeaver to be created in the LDAP. That's why it's a "readonly" configuration. I would guess that you need a custom configuration file specifically for open ldap.
This should help get you started on a custom configuration file:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/b7/14d43f2dd44821e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Then again, if the only problem with the .XML file you chose is that you can't write to the LDAP, give the dataSourceConfiguration_ads_writeable_db.xml configuration file a shot.

Having trouble converting video to dvd

Hi there. I am trying to convert an 8mm tape to dvd. I imported using FCP, i made my necessary edits and then converted them to a quicktime file and imported the clips to iDVD and burned my disc. the problem I am having is that when I playback the dvd anytime there is motion it gets very pixelated and looks like garbage. I am sure there is a setting that I am missing, or not converting it properly. I really need some help on this.
here is the process by which I am exporting the edited piece to burn to DVD,
Export: Using Quicktime conversion. My settings are: Compression H.264, Quality: best, Key Frame Rate:24, Encoding:multipass, and Dimensions 720x480(4:3)
I am just looking for the most convenient way to transfer and edit these tapes to dvd without the glaring pixelation problems.
thanks
Jason

First, you must feed iDVD with an uncompressed copy of your movie, what means, same settings that your timeline. Select Export > Quicktime Movie (not conversion!) > Same settings. Then use that file as soure in iDVD. iDVD will encode this file to MPEG2 video.
Second, I suggest you learn to use Compressor and DVDSP. iDVD will not give you too much encoding control. With Compressor you can set the exact encoding parameters you need, including AC3 (Dolby) audio. iDVD uses AIFF audio that can cause skips when playting in stand alone players because the high bitrate.
Hope that helps !

For those of you having trouble Ripping DVD's importing to itunes etc.

I've read quite a few posts about people not being able to rip/convert or upload to itunes, I am one of these people, but managed to figure it out. No one seemed to be able to help me, so here you go guys and gals.
To put DVD's on your ipod video you'll first have to rip them to your computer. I downloaded Handbrake for mac and it works perfectly. Follow these steps and all should be good....
Once you have Handbrake downloaded, which takes round about 5 mins. Load your DVD Moive, tv series etc. Just close the DVD player if it automatically starts.
Open Handbrake, select "Detected Volume" and click open.
Once that's done, then it will take you to the main screen.
Under "Source" select which part of the DVD you want to rip.
If it's a comedy DVD then you'll want to select which episode you want to copy, 1,2,3,4....etc.
Then under "Destination" click "browse" and select where you want the ripped
video to save. I just stick them all in "Moives"
Finally at the bottom click "Picture settings" which is where some people may be having problems. When you click that, you'll see a preview screen of the DVD, and it will be quite large. On the Right reduce the size right down to 256, and you'll see the picture size is pretty much set for the size of an ipod screen.
Click close, and then hit "Rip"
Once completed as it does take a bit of time. Close Handbrake and load Itunes, click "Videos" on the left. Then "File" and click "Add to library" and you can add your copied video depending on where you've saved it
And that's pretty much it for copying DVD's
For other files such as MPEG's use Isquint, it's tops and easy.
All done

How can I change my file extension from m4p to something else? I have had no success being able to play or burn my purchased music. I keep getting error 2122. If I can change the format I should be able to move it to another player or at least burn it in Nero. Thanks.
