How do you change the max data when creating a DVD?

I recently filmed a show and am making DVD copies. The show runs 1hour 45mins and is about 79gb in HD. I'm using compressor 4.1 to create the DVDs so it fits on one disc. I've made a few test copies but so far every DVD freezes at around 43 mins when I play it in another computer or dvd player. I heard in a blog that reducing the max data should solve the problem. This is my first time using compressor and I wanted to know where do you go to change the max data and how will that affect the video quality? Also, what is the suggested range of data limits for a project of this size?
Thanks

Duplicate the Create DVD preset from the Settings pane and name it.
Select the MPEG setting in the batch window.
Open the Inspector and click the Video tab.
Choose your "Encoding Mode" (CBR, etc.).
Uncheck Automatically Select Bit Rate.
You can then move the slider: somewhere around 4 Mb per second should be about right.
Just to add that you might also have a problem with the physical media. Try another brand to see whether that makes a difference.

    You could adjust the mailnews.tcptimeout preference, as explained in the 2nd point in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Can_not_send_large_attachments this article]. Also, make sure there's no security program scanning outgoing mail attachments.

  • How do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3?  i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow.  i see how you do it when you just play a slideshow.

    how do you shuffle the image order when creating a new slideshow in apterture 3?  i would like to do this automatically when creating a new slideshow.  i see how you do it with presets when you just play a slideshow, but i don't see an option to randomly shuffle the slide order when you create a new slideshow.  i know you can sort it by different fields, but i want it to be random.  thanks.

    If you want to rearrange images in random order you can try an AppleScript:
    retrieve a list of selected images from Aperture
    shuffe the list properly
    create an album in Aperture and add the images from the list to the album (make sure that the album set to be orederd manually)
    Here  is a sample script that shuffles the selected images and displays them in random order in Full Screen Mode:
    on removeItem(ims, i)
      -- remove the item at position "i" from a list ims
              if ims is {} then return {}
              if (length of ims is 1) then return {}
              if i < 2 then return rest of ims
              if (i = length of ims) then return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims)
              if i > (length of ims) then return ims -- should be error?
              return (items 1 thru (i - 1) of ims) & (items (i + 1) thru (length of ims) of ims)
    end removeItem
    on shuffle_items(ims)
      -- shuffle the items of the list "ims" randomly
              local numitems, ims_shuffled, nextrest, nextpick, i
              set numitems to length of ims
              if length of ims < 2 then return ims
              set ims_shuffled to {}
              set nextrest to ims
              repeat until nextrest is {}
                        set i to (random number (numitems - 1)) + 1
                        set nextpick to item i of nextrest
                        set beginning of ims_shuffled to nextpick
                        set numitems to numitems - 1
                        set nextrest to removeItem(nextrest, i)
              end repeat
              return ims_shuffled
    end shuffle_items
    on shuffleIms()
      -- retrieve the selected images from Aperture
      -- and display them in random order in full screen mode
              local imageSel, shuffled, i
              tell application "Aperture"
      activate
                        set imageSel to (get selection)
                        set shuffled to my shuffle_items(imageSel)
                        set fullscreen to true
                        if imageSel is {} then error "Please select some images."
                        repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                                  reveal {item i of shuffled}
      delay 3 -- chnage that to the time you want
                        end repeat
                        set fullscreen to false
                        return shuffled
              end tell
    end shuffleIms
    shuffleIms()
    Some more code snippets to go from here:
    To create an album:
                        tell library 1
                                  if not (exists album "shuffledAlbum") then
      make new album with properties {name:"shuffledAlbum", image version:shuffled}
                                  end if
                        end tell
    And to add the images from the shuffled list to the album:
                        repeat with i from 1 to count of shuffled
                                  duplicate item i of shuffled to album "shuffledAlbum"
                        end repeat

  • How do you change the iTunes ID when updating apps? 3 people use the same iPad with different iTune IDs.

    When trying to update apps on iPad2, someone elses iTunes ID is already showing when it asks for a password. (all in the family)
    How do I change to my iTunes ID? I checked settings &amp; it is correct there.

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap on the ID to sign out of that one. Then tap Sign in to sign in with another ID.
    If you have problems switching the ID's you may want to restart the iPad before you sign in with the new ID.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Doesn't it get confusing using 3 ID's on one iPad?

  • How do you change the email destination when you forgot your security question?

    Hey! First of all, Thank you for noticing my post! Haha
    Alright.. Soo.. This Apple ID was made a long time ago since my iPhone 5 was bought. I was planning to buy an ingame item but Vertification was needed so I was like yeah ok sure. XD Then it started giving me Security questions.
    I'm extremely sure I forgot both of the answers to my Security Questions so I decided to change it.
    I Went to Appleid.apple.com, logged in successfully, pressed the forgot the answer and it was said to sent to a YAHOO Email.
    I used to have this Yahoo Email but I forgot about it since Yahoo decided to deactivate due to inactivement so now I can't change my security answers so I can't proceed with my purchase.
    I was wondering if there's a way to change the email ( yahoo ) to my current gmail since I'm way more active on it and I
    can access it easier..?

  • How do you change the DB on WLS10 created by ALSB configuration wizard?

    I want to change the database configuration of an existing WLS10 domain that is used for ALSB 3.0 (now OSB 10gR3). The domain was created by the Configuration Wizard.

    Hi, I found out how you can set it.
    You need two registry keys to be set in order to keep the preloaded settings.(HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\MailSettings)
    These are:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\LanguageResources]
    "LangTuneUp"="OfficeCompleted"
    "OutlookChangeInstallLanguage"="Yes"
    both are String entries.

  • How do you change the burn speed when making a CD?

    I have tried burning my iTunes purchases onto a CD, and when I try to play them back on my CD player, nothing happens. It will play back in iTunes on the Mac, but not on my CD player or in my car.
    I suspect it has to do with the speed at which they burn, but I have no idea how to change that?

  • How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view

    How do you change the pink highlight for the present day in calendar when in week view - OSX Maverick

    the current day was light blue in ical in 10.6 but with plenty of contrast, but I recently made the bigger leap all the way to calendar in 10.9. the choice of color is terrible for reasons such as Spile1962 puts below, but also not having any way to tweak it is terrible. I'm on a bran d new imac and can barely see a difference and frankly, while I appreciate the subtlety, I still forget to look for the darker bar across the top of the current week and day. we should be able to adjust weekend and current day bg colors.
    I went into the app's package contents in hopes that they were using a tiff/png file that I could tweak on my own but couldn't find anything for them. all the icons are there, as are the bg sets for all the little pop-ups and things, but I couldn't even find a reference to a hex color in the plist file.
    send apple feedback. I just did myself, except that Calendar hasn't made the list (yet?), only iCal up to version 4.x, and Messages is still only iChat for feedback, and some others are old as well. apparently after steve died, apple's attention to these details just died with him. it's been that long since those other apps should have been relevant on their site.

    Jerry,
    Thanks for replying again. I've got a little bit further thanks to you. I tried the US keyboard layout as you seemed pretty definte that it should work. This time I applied the setting and also started the language toolbar and selected it from there.
    Hey presto, I've got the @ where it should be. Excellent.
    However the single quote ' works in a weird way. When I press it, it doesn't show up on the screen. But when I press another key, I get the single quote plus the next key I press. When I press the single quote twice, I get 2 of them. This is also the same with the SHIFT ' key. i.e. for the double quotes.
    Very strange. I'll look at other keyboards and see where that gets me.
    Thanks,  Maz
