Help me to make the best setup

Hi all,
I would like some help on setting up Premiere CS4 so it works as well as it could.
I am editing .mov or .mts files and exporting them as flv files. The bitrate is 250 and I am encoding them to be used on-line. No effects or such are used.
I am using:
Mac Book Pro - 2009 model
1066 bus speed
2.8 GHZ
4 GB memory
500 GB 7200 Seagate disk
External FW 800 Seagate 500 GB 7200 disk
I would like to know how it is best to set up the program and the disks. I know I am only using one external disk and I a getting some annoying delays when I am trying to play the clip in the preview window. Even with no other programs open.
Where is best to keep the original files?
Where should I put the preview files?
Should I export the files to an external drive or internal?
I am thinking of getting a bracket to put another 500 GB 7200 disk as an internal disk, would that help?
Any ideas would be great.
Cheers...

Thanks, didi it. Still getting major stalls on video and more on audio in the preview window. Stalls alot. IS there any other global settings than can help out?
I am getting this when not editing at all. Video ready and I want to preview.
Cheers....

How can I make the best of my ipod touch screen with no internet connection??

I've been offered an ipod touch screen last Christmas and it's only a week ago that I took it out of its box. I still can't figure out how to transfer my music library from my laptop to the ipod. But I've installed some apps thinking I would be able to listen to my favourite radio station and play some games wherever I go and to my disappointment nothing's working if not connected to an internet connection. I thought an ipod was an improved walkman and actually it is nothing but a device that should be connected to the internet to work.
Considering that I don't have a free internet connection to the internet on my mobile phone, I was just wondering wht's the purpose to have an ipod? I really consider to go back to my old walkman... Thank you for your comments to help me to make the best of my Christmas present.

The message you are getting is saying that the iPod was previous synced to another computer. You can only sync with one computer. If you sync to another computer then the iPod media from the iPod get erased (as the message says) and is replaced with what is in the iTunes library of the second computer.
Syncing means copying (syncing) media from your iTunes library to your computer)
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
For not showing in iTunes:
- Try entering the screen lock passcode on your iPod if not done already
- Go to Windows Device Manager and see if there is any problems/unknown devices
- Can you not import photos from a digital camera? The iPod appears in My Computer like a camera does.

Which webcam makes the best pictures?

I need to take pictures of different products from the same camera position.
So I want to mount a webcam on the ceiling and use photobooth to take the pictures.
the distance from the camera to the object will be about 4 feet.

or do I need to mount a normal photocamera to the ceiling? (which will be difficult to turn off/on
Ipevo P2V? Logitech?

Camera Awesome is excellent. As a professional photographer, I find it quite amazing.

What is the best setup to encode h264 (1080p) and to avoid stuttering, dropped frames?

Hello,
What is the best setup with AME to encode h264 (1080p) and to avoid stuttering, dropped frames using a classic video player .I am looking to have the smoothest experience (in fast horizontal motion for ex!).It also can be another format (intra codec’s etc...)it doesn’t matter as long as readable by most players. Anyone’s to tell his favorites presets for that?
thanks

I should have included the following:
1.) Why can't I make a silent project in GarageBand? I have to instead find a project with a long enough song, make an "iLife preview" of it (see (2) below), copy it from the iMovie Music and Sound Effects browser to the end of the movie, and then open the audio panel and turn the volume to zero. And all this so that video websites don't get confused by a soundtrack that starts in mid-movie.
2.) Why do I have to "render" them by the following process: Double-click a song in the iMovie Music and Sound Effects browser. You get a dialog box saying "The project "The Great Race" cannot be used because it was not prepared with an iLife preview. Would you like to open "The Great Race" in GB so you can save it with an iLife preview?" What I don't understand is why this new thing was introduced and why I have to do it via iMovie.

TS2646 Settings to record in on Canon HD Vixia HG20 for easy migration into iMovee'11 v.9.0.9? It would be most helpful to list what the best possible settings are.

So, what are the best settings to record in using Canon HD Vixia HG20 for easy migration into iMovee'11 v.9.0.9?
It would be most helpful to list what the best possible settings are.
frame rate?
format? FXP?

I suggest filming in 30P with this camera. That should be the MXP setting.
You could also use 30i which would be the FXP setting.
You will get the best results in iMovie by shooting progressive.

Can you use Apple TV 1 and Tv 2 together And what is the best setup

Hey guys
Can you use Apple TV 1 and Tv 2 together?
And if you can what is the best setup with teh two devices above and the need to hook it to one TV.
Thanks in advance.
-David

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If I understand correctly you want to use both the Apple TV's with one TV.
There wouldn't be a problem with that, they will each need there own network connection and should be connected to different AV inputs on the TV so that you can switch between each Apple TV as a source with your TV remote.
If you don't have two HDMI ports on the TV, the Apple TV 1 will connect by component cables, if this isn't possible you would need to get yourself an HDMI switch.

IMovie '08 option to make the best quality video on a DVD using iDVD '08

Which iMovie '08 option will make the best quality video on a DVD using iDVD '08?
1. Share-Media Browser-Large-Publish
2. Share-Export Using Quicktime
3. Or can you use an unpublished iMove in iDVD?
(Of course I'll have to first get iDVD to open without crashing...)

3. Or can you use an unpublished iMove in iDVD?
As always, this depends on a number of factors which you failed to cover in your original question.
1) If you source files are SD, other than an increased loss of time in converting you gain nothing in scaling the files up in iMovie '08 only to scale them back down in iDVD. On the other hand, if your source files are HD, then you will likely see a marginal increase in quality which may or may not be worth the price of increased processing time. In this latter case, you are allowing the MPEG-2 compressor to get the most it can out of your file at the P- and B-frame level.
2) Export using QT allows you to customize your output with regard to both compression format and settings. For instance, you can use a codec with extremely high data rate (e.g., VGA dimensions with DV at 28.5-57.0 Mpbs, AIC at 18.0-22.0 Mbps, or even unlimited H.264/AAC at 16.0-20.0 Mbps). High video data rates generally translate to less lost quality during the re-compression process. Thus, if the intermediate file produced by iMovie '08 and passed on to iDVD retains more of its original quality, the MPEG-2 compressor can get more quality out of the final conversion as stated above.
3) Since no physical file actually exists until the project (simply a set of instructions detailing how the final file will be created) is published, there is nothing to be physically sent to iDVD. basically you must create a physical file from the project in order to do anything at all whether sending it to a gallery, iTunes, YouTube, iDVD, etc.

This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

This community is great -- very helpful. What is the best way to read "word" docs on my brand new iPad 2? Is there an app for that?

If you're just reading them from email attachments, you can just open it to "view" the document.
However, if you wish to do editing and work, you'll need an application. I use Documents to Go, but there are other versions that people are happy with - do a search in the App store for "office suite" or "word processing".
The next challenge is getting docs back and forth. Doc2Go and others have their own ways to physically sync docs when connected to a computer; you can also email changed/revised/new documents from the iPad to yourself. However, I use a "cloud service" called DropBox that stores docs in the cloud (so I can get to them anywhere) - I paid for the Premium version of Docs2Go to allow that kind of syncing.

Just bought a 3TB Time Capsule for a small office. Will have 4 users with MacBooks. What would ne the best setup for time machine individual backups and internet sharing in a secure way?

Just bought a 3TB Time Capsule for a small office. Will have 4 users with MacBooks. What would ne the best setup for time machine individual backups and internet sharing in a secure way?

Set up each Mac for Time Machine backups in the normal way. Time Machine will keep each backup separate on the Time Capsule, so users will only be able to see the backups of their own Mac.
Yes....there are convoluted workarounds that might allow one user to see the backups of another.....IF...they know the administrator password of the "other" Mac.
As far as Internet sharing, all users will have access to the Internet if they have a wired or wireless connection. If a Mac connects using wireless, it is possible to limit the time that they are allowed to connect to the network.
For example, you might limit the ability to connect to the wireless from say each Weekday from 8 AM to 6 PM.
With a wired Ethernet connection, you cannot limit access times to the Internet.

DO I have the best setup...? please help

I am running the MI424WRI fios router, and I was seeing other modles out and was wondering if I had the best wifi router or is ther something else I can upgrade to by verizon....?

You have the Actiontec Rev I which is a N wireless capable router there is a newer model which Verizon calls the Fios Quantum Gateway which is an AC wireless capable router. The FQG costs more money and quite a few users have reported that the wireless range is worse than the Actiontec Rev I so it is up to you if you want to spend more money to change over to the FQG.

Please help : How to make the anomalistic table just like below?

Hi all,
How to make the anomalistic table just like below? Anyone can give the way detail or thoughtway ?
http://61.132.17.188/webber/table.gif

This is just a suggestion.
If you put your "JTable" in a "JScrollPane", then you can add any "java.awt.Component" to the corner of the "JScrollPane" -- using the "setCorner()" method (of "JScrollPane").
I would suggest making a custon "JPanel" and overriding its "paintComponent()" method to draw a diagonal line (and the required text) on it.
You can find out more about how to do this from the links I provided in my first reply.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,
Avi.

HELP! What's the best book/resource for learning more complex interactions in EdgeAnimate?

Hi there,
I'm completely new to the world of HTML5/javascript etc and I'm looking for a book/person that will teach me (in a comprehensive, 'from the ground up' kind of way) how to apply these sorts of interactions.
1: Drag a symbol and 'throw' it so that the object continues moving at the velocity of finger swipe after the user removes their hand from the screen, slowly decreasing with a pre defined 'inertia' variable.
2: Drag a symbol away from its initial location so that it 'springs' back to it's initial starting point.
3: 'Hit test' principles so that if the user had 'thrown' a symbol I could detect if it had collided with a 'floor' or 'wall' and it would then bounce or would affect the inertia.
4: Smooth drag and drop so that the symbol you are 'carrying' is subjected to a easing formula that makes the motion smoother and less erratic than whan just dragging the actual object directly.
5: Drag and drop in a constrained arc with the symbol rotating back to it's original point as if it were a pendulum. So, the higher you initially drag the item, the faster it would swing back, initially overshooting it's original point, until an inertia variable would eventually mean it would settle at it's origin.
I've seen a few books about EDGE in general, but they seem to be more about how to use the drawing tools and perform basic interactions (on click stop at frame whatever etc).
I guess I need a book on java script, but I'm very keen for something that can communicate how to do these things directly within edge (so wether you enter the code on frame update or touch start etc)
If anybody out there knows of a useful resource to achieve these kind of results I woudl be REALLY greatful. I know there are some posts on the forums that detail some of these things, but I need something that explains in a simple way how and why you do something so that I can properly grasp it.
Cheers,
Tom

Hi there,
Well, I've found a great blog post by a guy called Burak Kanber on how to use Hooke's law in javescript.
http://burakkanber.com/blog/physics-in-javascript-car-suspension-part-1-spring-mass-damper /
The principles all make sense to me and I can kind of see what's going on with the javescript (whan I say, 'kind of', I mean pretty vaguely) but I can't fathom out how to apply that javescript in Edge. Can anyone describe how to apply this code to Edge directly - ie. Where should I put each section of code to ensure that the drag actions work etc.?
I don't need the canvas stuff as I'll be using graphic objects anyway.
Any help would be massively apreciated!
Thanks,
Tom

Help me to choose the best, it will be a gift T_T

Greetings to all
Im going to buy a camera for my husband
I know his type is the DSLR
He had one long time, but sold it so i dont know what itz model
Am thinking to get him the latest by Canon
I read many reviews now I need to know the best for someone likes to shoot portrays
According to what I read 650D is good and 70D
I went amazon and I saw many options goes with that
so I found about lenses and other accessories which i dont know, and now I find myself lost
like what is the difference between
18-55mm EF-S IS STM Lens vs 18-135mm EF-S IS STM Lens ?
I wanna give him everything that he needs a full package
price doesnt matter
so please guide me
what is best for portray shooting
what all accessories that essential and must have
Solved!

The body needs to be good enough to be up to the task at hand. Example:
Suppose I want to take an image of a flowers in a vase in excellent lighting. The camera is on a tripod. The subject is not moving (no "action" to capture.)
In a situation like that, you basically have all the time in the world to frame up and capture that shot. This shot isn't going to test the limits of what a camera can do -- any camera body would be fine.
If, on the other hand, you're shooting in very poor lighting, then a body that can handle high ISO senstivity levels while keeping the image "noise" levels low would definitely have an advantage. If you're shooting "action" photography then a camera with a great focus system and a fast frame rate would be definitely have an advantage.
Since portraits tend to be posed and aren't "action" photography, the focus system and frame rate isn't usually critical. You also usually get to control the lighting in portraiture rather than having to make-do with whatever lighting happens to be available -- so even the ability to shoot at very high ISO settings isn't actually very important (again... for portraiture. For some other type of photography that might be really important.)
The new 70D will certainly be a more capable camera than the 650D.
The 650D is part of Canon's "Rebel" series. These are all entry-level bodies... the T3 being the low-end of the range and the T5i being the high-end of the "Rebel" range.
The 70D is part of Canon's mid-range bodies... these are bodies that start to have the benefits of the pro bodies (e.g. the control layout on the camera is much closer to the pro bodies.)
The big new feature on the 70D is Canon's new hybrid AF mode which is especially nice for shooting video. The 70D also has basically the same focus system as is found on the Canon 7D (the 7D has a lot of optimizations which make it ideal for action photography). It has a 19 point auto-focus system (vs. the 9 point system found on the Rebel bodies.)
Again... if you're subjects aren't moving then having a more advanced focus system isn't a big deal.
What would be a big deal for portraiture... is lighting gear.

Need advice on the best setup of a TC and 2-wire wireless gateway to a 2011 iMac.

I upgraded to the Gateway so I could wirelessly stream HD movies to my TVs. Current setup: Ethernet cable from the wireless Gateway to the TC and Ethernet cable from the TC to the iMac; wireless turned off on the iMac and the TC is in bridge mode. I would think a more direct route from the gateway to the iMac using the Ethernet WAN connections on the gateway and iMac would be preferred. I want to use the TC solely for a backup. Can the USB ports on the TC and iMac be used for connection the two? (available connectors on the TC- 1 Internet WAN port, 3 Ethernet ports, 1 USB. The iMac has only 1 internet WAN port with multiple USB ports, 1 firewire port). THANKS

I would think a more direct route from the gateway to the iMac using the Ethernet WAN connections on the gateway and iMac would be preferred
You already have the best connection path. There is no WAN port when the TC is in bridge mode. All ports behave the same....as LAN ports when in bridge mode. Connect to any port you wish.
Another way of saying the same thing.....the ports behave as a simple Ethernet switch when the TC...or any other router...is configured in bridge mode.
Another thing that you might not have thought about.....the ports on the gateway are only 100 Mbps ports. So, if you connect from the gateway to the TC, the maximum speed will be 100 Mbps.
The ports on your TC and iMac are 1,000 Mbps ports.....Gigabit Ethernet. You will have a much, much faster connection and much much faster backups with the iMac connected to the TC.
Can the USB ports on the TC and iMac be used for connection the two?
No

Help me to make the best setup
