Help: Creating, Mounting and Viewing a VIDEO CD/DVD image file...

Hello everyone.
Well, here's another question... I have a 1.5T RAID 5 system for the Mac. On the PC, I put most of my CD / DVD movies/videos on the hard drives as a disc image. That way I have full access to my library without using my DVD drive.
I would like to do the same with Mac OS X. I have used the disk utility in the Utilities dir to create both a .dmg and a .cdr image of a DVD movie. I am unable to get any software play the image. Is this possible on the Mac? What do I need to do this, and how is it accomplished.
Thank you very much in advance.

Kay:
Thanks a bunch for the information. I downloaded MTR, and it worked flawlessly! I can now use VLC or QT7+MP2 to view my DVD movies on the Mac from a file on my HDD.
Again, thank you for the information.

I just downloaded the new Firefox 4, rebooted, and viewed you videos re the new look and new features. Problem is, my toolbars look no different than before. The new icons you talk about do not appear on my screen. Please advise. Thank you.

The Firefox icon is the default feature for Windows Vista and 7 only, it does not apply to Windows XP users.
To have the Firefox icon instead of the Menu Bar:
View > Toolbars and UNCHECK the Menu Bar.
After that, click on the Firefox icon and you'll have the Menu Bar appear again.

When I go to youtube and view a video clip it usually asks if i want to save the video I'm watching. Now all of a sudden it no longer asks the question. How do I get it back?

I believe that might be related to this:
See: http://real.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/7303/p/3/c/2222/r_id/119487
Real is always, it seems, late in releasing updates for new browser updates. They are given the same opportunity during the Firefox pre-release testing as other developers to be sure that their products will work with new Firefox releases.
But, alas, always the same problem!

E62,can i view/save video /jpg/jpeg/pdf files,can ...

I want to know whether i can view/save video /jpg/jpeg/pdf files on E62 and whether i can send them as attachments via email.What is the maximum file size i can send via email from E62

ANSWER FOUND!
Once I finished composing my question I went back and spent some time to figure out the problem. Rather than choosing the "save as" option, which doesn't work, or attempting to choose "export" (grayed out), the correct option is to choose "export creation", which is near the very bottom of the initial drop down options. That works! I still think it would make sense to have it as an option in the "save as" area.

I have downloaded video in MP4 from my GoPro camera, but I cannot open and view the video. Help please.

I have downloaded video from my GoPro helmet camera to my iPad 1 photos, but i cannot open and view the MP4 file. Please help.

Yeah, just as said above, you need to convert it to iPad supported video formats first and then sync it back to the iPad.
Chek the iPad Supported Video and Audio Formats first.

Best way to sync and view other videos formats

hi all,
me and my wife both have iphones and have recenly bought a ipad and apple tv. I am getting a bit frustrated as i cant work out the best way to store and easily view my old pics and video files.
the shops salesman convinced me to by knowhow cloud which seemed brilliant but it wont back up al photos so ill go back to the shops. its just app on the phone that shows all pics stored on my windows pc
i also want to know what way is best to store and view some .mod files or moi files. I have air video which works great for divx files but not the ones i want ex my video camera
any help greatly received
main reason for the ipad is to create a central hub for viewing pics and videos on and streaming to tv in background when we have parties or just remenicising

Unfortunately, the playback of non-iOS-native video formats (everything except mov / mp4 / m4v) is horrible through Apple TV and it, because of the inherent speed restrictions of Wi-Fi, can't be helped other than:
- pre-converting your video files to mov / mp4 / m4v before playing them. (THis is the best solution.) For this, you will want to use the absolutely best and fastest video converter, the free(!!!) HandBrake. Don't ever think of paying any money for any video converter - most other titles are way inferior to HandBrake. (See http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/benchmark-excellent-multimedia-converter-handb rake-vs-commercial-apps for more info on this q.)
- using a VGA or HDMI adapter and connecting your TV directly to the iPad.
In the thread at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18697551?ac_cid=sa123456#18697551 , we've also discussed this problem (AirPlay vs. cabled playback)

Compressor has a preset for youTube videos... Pick the one that closely matches your video:
Compressor YouTube settings has Frame Reorder set to on by default. YouTube doesn't like Frame Reorder, set it to off. Here are YouTube guidelines for Video set to them:

Ntsc video signal to image file with PXI-5114?

Is it possible to use a PXI-5114 digitizer to capture a NTSC video signal and reconstuct a single frame to be saved as an image file?

Hi Jason,
I think the example Kyle posted is for the NI 5112 digitizer, which has to use an IMAQ board to video trigger since it does not support video triggering. However, the 5114 is one of the boards that does support video triggering, including the NTSC format. More information can be found in the digitizers help manual (online here). If you are using LabVIEW, we have a basic video triggering example that you can take a look at and try out (the example is called "niScope EX Video Triggering.vi" and can be found from the LabVIEW Example Finder or by going to Start » Programs » National Instruments » NI-SCOPE » Examples from your Windows start menu). If you need to acquire the entire frame, that will probably require you to sample a very large amount of data, in which case you may or may not be able to stream it to disk. In the best case, you can acquire the entire frame in a single record without having to do any streaming to disk. Otherwise, you may need a digitizer that can stream high throughput to a hard drive RAID or something of the sort if you plan on acquiring a large amount of data. Worst case is that it is just too much data, too fast, and it cannot be streamed. Perhaps with more details of the signal and your expected sample rate, we may be able to provide some additional guidance on the possibilities of acquiring the entire frame. Hope this helps!

I'm new to photoshop and I want to convert an image file to a fabric file like .zfab or .fab...is this possible? I want the image to be in color and the images are .png. I am using windows 8

HI I am using software for fashion design called Marvelous Design . I want to import my fabric patterns which are .png image files but they have to be in .zfab or .fab format. can adobe convert these files into these extensions? If so, how do I do it? Thanks for any help!

This is from File extension FAB - Open .fab files :
The FAB file extension is associated with the Fabmaster software, or file format developed by the Electronic Source Company.
Fabmaster seems to be obsolete product that is not supported by its developers.

As for the software, did you mean Marvelous Designer?

PSE10 and PSE11 changing original date of image file on loading file to editor.

There seem to be a problem with PSE10 and PSE11 on my computer when loading image files digitized on my film scanner. When loaded into the editor the image file immediate takes today’s date and time, and thus changes place on the timeline. However, sometimes the original image file date remains intact, for no obvious reason. I find this very frustrating.
My setup is an HP computer running Windows7 Ultimate 64 bit, with i7 processor and 12GB memory. My film scanner is a Minolta Dimage Elite II working with a Windows XP-based computer, and data are transferred using memory stick.
Is there anybody out there able to advise me on what to do about the problem?
It might be mentioned that I have made tests with a fixed set of image files on several computers running WindowsXP 32 bit, and several versions of PSE , including PSE10, without seeing this problem.

If you have had a look at your other post,
Why does PSE10 change my file date to today?
you may be able to spot what can have triggered the updating of the catalog. There are too many date types in the exif, some of them are misleading. What is really interesting for a scan? For me (familiy history, genealogy) it's the supposed 'Date taken' or 'CreateDate' to display file chronogically. The file date in the OS is useful for backups.
It's possible that the date digitized has some meaning for you.
If you want to compare the different dates shown by John R Ellis in the Organizer database with those you see in an exif browser (or the properties in the editor, or the information panel in the organizer), you have to note that the 5 types of dates stored in the catalog database are;
-pse:FileDate
-Pse:FileDateOriginal
-xmp:CreateDate
-pse:TagDate
-pse:LastOrganizerModifiedTime
What's important to troubleshoot your problems is to find what operation triggers the updating of the catalog from the files or vice versa.
That can be: Update thumbnail, Write Metadata to files or...

Help creating a smart playlist - all video from one group and fill to size

I have two classifications of videos:
A) current videos added randomly to iTunes
B) old videos I'm trying to work through in chronological order but are less important than 'A'
I have a 8GB Touch so space is limited. I always have 2500 MB available for videos.
It was easy enough to separate the two classes of videos into two smart playlists, A and B.
Now I need your help to create a third Smart playlist that contains everything from A , then fills whatever is left of the 2500 MB with videos from B.
Or, if playlists aren't an option, do you have any other ideas?
Thanks

The new tools in iTunes 9 made this possible, at least good enough.

Help needed with limiting views of video

Hello Board,
I'm using Keynote to make a slideshow showing the way my buisness works. I want to export the slideshow to quicktime/flash for others to view online but heres my problem:
I don't want this file floating around the web as a "DIY" video on how to fix a slate roof properly, I would like it to be "streamed" from my computer with my permition e.t.c. I emagine it being slightly like youtube in the way you can see how many times the videos been played and that you cant copy the video from the site. (I could put the video up on my .mac webpage)
Any advice on how to do this would be great, and I'm sorry if my question doesn't involve keynote that much!
Regards
Rob

The space a dedicated to the user.
Master table = address file
View = Address file by street nameI have no idea what any of the above means. Please explain.
How exactly are you creating the view?
(CREATE VIEW blah AS SELECT ...)
When view is queried a cpl days later view dows not exists.What's the exact error message?
When we goto the system to check the view, it is not there.What do you mean by "go into the system"?
View don't just vanish.
Did you check USER_VIEWS like I asked above?

After Effects Help | Creating shapes and masks

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/after-effects/using/creating-shapes-masks.html

Hi Todd,
I don't think either approach accomplishes what I am trying to do. Just as when using a shape tool on an existing layer to create a mask, none of these approaches lets me alter a shape path after creating it, in terms of number of points, inner/outer radius and inner/outer roundness. Nor can I animate those characteristics.
The Help file creates the impression that you can copy/paste a Shape path from a Shape layer. If that were true, I could create a shape, copy/paste that path to a mask path, keyframe it, go back to the original shape layer, change its propertie and copy/paste that new shape path to the mask path at a different time, thus morphing from one shape to another. I don't see any way to do that.

Unable to create followup and view transaction types for InteractionRecord

Hi,
We are currently working in crm 7.0 environment.
we are not able to create followup transaction for Interaction Record -
Transaction Type - Business activity(0010).
We are not even able to view the standard transaction types available
when we select followup both in UI and GuI.
Any inputs in this regard are rewarded and appreciated.

Hi sreenicrm,
Have you configured anything in the "Allowed Channels for transaction types".
If not, it may be worth copying the standard transation type and then setting the values in the above screens.
if you set a values of "interaction Center"(IAC) and "CRM Server"(GUI) then you shoudl see the activity.
I am using CRM 5.0 but would imaging it is similar in 7.0.
