Help: footage getting garbled?!?!?!?

let me preface the following question with the fact that i'm working on my showreel.
i have clips that were ripped from a commercial movie dvd using mac the ripper. they were saved as .m2v movies. i used quicktime pro to convert them to .mov files and brought into fcp.
when i view my clip in quicktime pro or in fcp's viewer, they are fine.
when i view them after putting them in the timeline and view them i the canvas, some frames are 'green and garbled' and inverted. i tried exporting the sequence to .mov and it is there too.
i'm on a powerbook running 10.4.7 using fcp 5.1.1 and qt pro 7.1.3.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

One thing to keep an eye on when converting m2v material to .mov... make SURE you set the frame rate to what you want. Don't leave it on CURRENT RATE. I've come up with files that are 30.01 frames a second. Now, THOSE won't even import into FCP... but maybe there are some other issues too.
Try using HANDBRAKE to convert the m2v movies to .mov instead of QTPro. It's a free program.
Good luck,
CaptM

Messages get garbled

Once in a while the body of my messages in my inbox get "garbled", meaning the messages all look like http code and can't be read. And the code in one doesn't seem to necessarily match the message - inside one could be referencing a different message. It only happens in one of my email accounts, the other is fine. And it only happens when I restart my computer after a long while.

Why does pre-rendered footage get re-rendered again for every playback or preview?

Dear Sir/Mdm,
I'm a novice, please bear with me.
I'm using an Asus laptop with:
     1. CPU: Intel i5-3337U @ 1.80 GHz (4 CPUs)
     2. OS: Windows 8.1 64 bits (6.3, Build 9600)
     3. RAM: 8 GB
     4. DirectX: Version 11
     5. On-board Graphics: Intel HD 4000
     6. Dedicated Graphics: GeForce GT 740M
     7. Dedicated video memory: 2048 MB DDR3
     8. Nvidia Driver version: 6.14.13.3523
     9. Total available graphics memory: 4096 MB
I hoped to avoid repeated rendering of footage segments during RAM previews, scrub-through, or playbacks.
I pre-composed related layers of completed segments and pre-rendered the pre-comp, which gave a footage (in AVI format) to replace the pre-comp.
But when I scrub-through, playback (spacebar), or do RAM previews, the pre-rendered footage gets re-rendered again (for every scrub-through/preview/playback).
Need advice.
Thanks.

Thanks for the responses and apologies for the slow reply (I spent some time following-up on the clues from the kind responses and did a more focused reading of AE's Help page based on the clues).
To answer Mr Szalam's questions:
     I'm using AE CS6 version 11.0.4.2
     Memory settings:
          Installed RAM: 7.9 GB
          RAM Reserved for other applications: 2 GB
          RAM Available for AE: 5.9 GB
          [Not selected] Reduce cache size when system is low on memory
     Previous Multiprocessing settings:
          Installed CPUs: 4
          CPUs reserved for other applications: 1
          RAM allocation per background CPU: 1.5 GB
          Actual CPUs that will be used: 0
     Current Multiprocessor settings: [Not selected] (due to advice given in the responses)
Copy that on the RAM part. Time for a little hardware upgrade :-)
For Mr/Mdm bogiesan's advice, thanks. Now I know more of what to look out for in simplifying future projects. For this current case, the pre-dendered movie-layer is the only layer-segment as I intended it to be a completed segment in the hope of avoiding repeated renders ... alas, it didn't turn out the way I hoped ... oh well :-)
For Mr Dave La Ronde's advice, copy that. I've disabled multiprocessing. Indeed, I'm using sub-par hardware for the intended purposes.
To sum up:
From AE's Help-pages:
1. "If you have a nested composition ... you can save time during each rendering operation by pre-rendering the nested composition ..."
     Takeaway: Re-rendering will occur under all situations, be it a plain movie-layer, effects-applied movie-layer, etc. Pre-rendering was designed to save time on nested compositions only (i.e. re-rendering nested compositions take longer than re-rendering the pre-rendered version of the nested composition).
2. "The rendering of a movie is the frame-by-frame rendering of each of the frames that make up the movie.".
     Takeaway: Even plain-movies get re-rendered. Since pre-rendered movies are the same as imported movies, everything gets re-rendered without exception.
Although Premiere Pro CS6 seems to handle movie footages with transition-effects more smoothly (e.g. during scrub-through), but I guess AE CS6 has much more to keep track of if it needs to tell the difference between a plain-movie and an effects-applied one ... perhaps a more optimized approach is indeed to render everything without exception. Perhaps a dedicated no-render-layer-slot can help AE to decide what not to render (i.e. anything dragged into such a no-render-layer will never be rendered) ... but that's just from a novice hobbyist's limited-knowledge perspective (I'm not a professional effects artist, which may be obvious from the sub-par hardware I use ... I bought the Teachers and Students Edition of CS6, which was kindly offered by Adobe at a steep discount ... and I use it to satisfy my curiosity of how those stuff-of-dreams sort of movie-effects are created ... for now, I'm only able to play with basic video montages :-)
Thanks for all the responses. Case closed as AE seems to be designed to render everything without exception.

Spanish characters getting garbled while executing command using Java code

Hi,
I try to execute a command using java code. output of the command contains spanish characters. Few of these characters getting garbled after the command execution.
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
          Process p = null;
String pgm="ipconfig /all";
          try
                    p = r.exec(pgm);
BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader
                              (p.getInputStream()));
while((val = br.readLine()) != null){ System.out.println(val);
          catch (Exception e)
                    return (null);
I tried to run the code using -Duser.language=es -Duser.region=ES -Dfile.encoding=Cp850, but this did nt help. I could see the outputs properly in command prompt,
If i redirect the output to a text file , it is getting garbled,
Please let me know to solve this issue.

Hi apple user. I have lost all iPad safari bookmarks. Tried hold home button with sleep button but it doesn't get back my safari bookmarks. I also have reset without erasing my iPad data but still doesn't work. Help me get back my safari iPad bookmarks.

Hi, I have lost all iPad safari bookmarks. Have tried reset without erasing data and hold home and sleep button together but when go to safari all safari bookmarks still lost. Is there any case help me get back my iPad safari bookmarks ? Currently my safari is hanged, can't surf webs or anything. I saw the safari tab on iCloud is on, but I don't know using iCloud. Please help me get back my iPad safari bookmarks. I have contact Apple but could not set chat session. I have my Apple ID registered same with iCloud, also same during the time I have all iPad safari bookmarks lost. My iPad never synced on computer since I bought it with set at local store. Please help me get my iPad safari bookmarks back, thanks.

Hi, I quitted Safari and press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons silmutaneously unti the Ipad turn off and on with the logo Apple appears but it has hanged on and fixed to the point. I do it again hold the Home and Sleep buttons silmutaneously and the Ipad turn off and on again with the Apple logo but it still is hanged on the same point. I have do it a few more time, it still hanged to the same point for few hours with no change (like picture):
I think my Ipad is fault now. I guess I must connect it to the computer with itune, or something. So my case is this: at the moment everytime I hold the Home and Sleep buttons the Ipad always off and reappear with the Apple logo and be hanged on (like the pic), and I need restoring my Ipad Safari bookmarks... so I guess I need using Itune or something to get back the Ipad then using Icloud or blah. Please guide me for the step, Im not sure if connect to PC, if any that my Ipad data would lost, or is there anyway that I also can get back Ipad Safari Bookmarks after connecting to PC, also the how using Icloud. There is no Apple store or service store in my country so I think I must do it my self. Feel free to share your guide, thanks.

Is there any "mechanical" helper to get my volume levels the same?

I create playlists from ratings,(and comments),- and albums have different volume levels. As I always use my ipod to go to sleep, it is very destructive, to not be able to hear my music one minute, and then have it much too loud the next.
Is there ANYTHING, free or chargeable, physical or software, that can help me get my itunes library to all the same volume level. My problem is agrivated by the fact that I do have some shared downloads, and also someone put my vynils onto cd for me, but at a lower volume.
I might add, that I'm still a learner on the computer. I have been told to change the soundcheck -playback -preferences -itunes. I have tried it, ticked and unticked - it doesn't make any difference.
I'd be very gratefull for some advice. Please HELP, this has been going on for ages. Thank you, in anticipation.

I'm SO very grateful for your help! Have downloaded it, and have started to use it, but havn't listened to results yet.(just about to) THANKYOU SO MUCH.
Thankyou so much again, this could be the end of a long (negative) era!
A bit later: have listened to a little, seems a huge amount better. will update when used properley.
I'm anticipating some being way out. Though it says it can overcome old changed volume levels, is it best in your opinion, to put them back to original setting?
Many Best Wishes Vonnie

Can anyone help me get a serial number from Adobe & Identit-e?

I bought the Adobe Creative Suite 6 Design Standard Student & Teacher edition through Amazon online. I followed the instructions inside the package to verify my eligibilty as an educator. I received a message on the screen after submitting my materials that I was verified & I would be receiving a serial number. This was on June 1. I contacted Adobe Chat and a rep. told me to wait 2 -3 business days, but still no email with serial number had arrived. On June 7, I contacted Adobe Chat again and the rep told me to contact customer service at identit-e. I have sent identit-e two emails with no response. It has been one week of trying to get my serial number from either Adobe or identit-e. Can anyone help me get my serial number?
Product Code <removed by moderator>.
My work email is <Removed by moderator>

Jeff,
I ordered through Amazon and not through Adobe so there is not a record of my order on the Adobe website. I do have a record of the order with Amazon so I requested a refund through Amazon. The product is unusable without the serial number. It has been 8 days since my eligibility was verified with identit-e. I have spoken with three Adobe rep.s and two unanswered email to identit -e trying to get the serial number since I was verified as eligible to receive the student/educator version of Creative Suites. I am very disaapointed with the lack of help I have received from Adobe with this issue.
Being referred to identit-e or to a FAQ page is not what I needed to solve the problem- I needed the serial number I have lost complete confidence in Adobe's customer service and that the serial number will ever be provided.

Can someone help me get my web address bar back up on Safari?

I don't really know what you call it, but the bar that you type web addresses in, at the top of the page, somehow disappeared. If I use this browser it is only to visit pages that I had bookmarked, because I have no way of typing in new addresses. I'm not really sure what I did, but it's gone...
I have Safari 2.0.4, but I just don't see anything in Preferences or anywhere else that will help me get bar back on the page. Can someone help me?

lol that was easy... I had been over that but apparently didn't drag it over to the bar correctly last time I was in there.
Thanks

IMovie no longer displays my iTunes or my iPhoto libraries. Can anyone help me get them back?

My iTunes and my iPhoto libraries no longer display in iMovie. I have to drag and drop directly from the applications. Can anyone help me get the them back?

I tried to restore from back up but this was the first time I connected my phone to my computer so when I ran backup my contacts did not return. When I go to mobileme.com my calandar shows up but not my contacts. I could cry.

Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot? I get a gray "curtain" over the start up screen saying I need to restart my computer but it won't restart. I just keep getting the same message every time.

Can anyone help me get my iMac to reboot? I get a gray "curtain" over the light gray start up screen with a message that I need to restart my computer and to hold the power button until it powers off and then press the power button again to restart. It just does this over and over again and won't restart.

Yeah, as necronym stated, it is a hardware issue and more than likely a RAM problem. Disconnect everything from the computer except keyboard and mouse and try again. If it still happens try removing one and/or swapping your RAM sticks over. Keep trying until you have eliminated all possible combinations. Just put a mark on one RAM stick so you know what have tried. If it still fails to boot properly you should probably replace your RAM, but that is no guarantee of success.

Help to get text objects in ABAP

Hi guys!
I've created my first report program and need some help to get text objects into the report. The program combines the tables KNA1, LIKP, LIPS, VBAK, VBAP and VBKD to create a deliverylist which we import as excel info a shipping service. The issue at hand is that our website allows customers to change the ship-to party's address when creating an order. The adress are not updated to KNA1, but are comitted as a text on the ship-to on the delivery itself.
The text I need in the report is RV50A-TXTWE.
Can you help me get going on how to add this from the delivery?
Thanks a lot!

Your problem is that its a structure. Structures are filled in a program and no longer exist after the program is closed. They are temporary data. It will have been moved to tables somewhere most likely. The next step is to debug / trace through the code to find out what was done with it.
What program were you using that created the structure?
