How do you convert PC-ripped DVDs using a Mac?

Got a question about converting/burning video DVDs from PC to Mac.
So I acquired a rip of a Video DVD, which seems to be PC-made, as the original rip was made up of numerous RAR files (pls-amipys.r00, pls-amipys.r01, etc).
I used a program (UnRarX I think) to convert these to a standard .iso disc, with a VIDEO_TS folder that seemed to play just fine using DVD Player program. I then tried burning that folder to a playable DVD (using the Freeware program Liquid CD; Toast seems to be freezing up on me/not doing so for some reason...).
However, when I tried playing the burned disc in my DVD player, every chapter was jumping/skipping, like someone was using the DVD as a **** turntable (please, no hip-hop references...).
Anyway I've never had this problem with any other .isos/VIDEO_TS folders I've tried burning to DVD, so I know it's got to be an issue with my having had to convert it.
Any (serious) explanations for why this may be?? Any suggestions for any other programs I can use to convert/burn the original rip so it'll play properly?
Thank you!!

How do you convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date

Hi everyone! does anyone know how to convert .AVI files for using in iMovie without losing the original clip time and date? Handbrake, MPEG Streamclip and Evon all replace the original timecode with the date of modification. This is very frustrating when you are trying to keep the chronology right. I know that if you upload the files to iMovie from one device the chronology isn't a problem, but I'm adding video files from a couple of iPhones and a couple of camcorders. any help much appeciated.

How can you display to multiple monitors using a Mac book pro

I Need to out put my display to a projector and a vison mixer the projector is VGA and the vision mixer is DVI is there a adaptor that I can use or hardware that will carry out this task for me

Sorry, but your Mac can only support a single monitor. Will need to buy a Mini-DisplayPort to DVI or VGA adapter, you will need to decide what you need best.
The newer (2011 & forward) Macs come with a Thunderbolt port instead, and that supports up to 2 cascaded devices.

How do you convert audio to ac3 in DVD SP 4 without a.pack

how do you convert audio to ac3 in DVD SP 4 without a.pack
thanks
Josh

NO. If you let DVDSP make your encoding you'll get uncompressed audio (AIFF/PCM) what means most probably high bitrate issues during building/playback and a lot of the space of your disc.

How Do You Convert a DVD video to an mpeg video?

I was just wondering...how do you convert a DVD disc that has videos in it and make it into quicktime mpeg videos that can make the computer understand?

Hi Ryan.
The FREE program HandBrake will convert DVDs or just sections into mpeg4 files. They can't be imported directly into FCE but they can be imported into iMovie.
Then you just copy the iMovie files into FCE.
Download it here:-

How can I convert my Tiger DVD into a CD without spending more money?

How can I convert my Tiger DVD into a CD without spending more money and time? I've spent over seven hours trying to upgrade an iMac 350 Hz OS 9.1 to Tiger. I have changed the iMac firmware to 4.1.9, but found that my Panther disc was only an OSX Upgrade, although the 3 cds are labeled as Installation Discs. Since I have a Tiger disc I thought I would use that. Unfortunately, my iMac only reads CDs, not DVDs. I tried networking the iMac to my G5, but upon shutdown, the OSX disc cannot be accessed. I copied the DVD files to my iMac hard drive, but again, the OSX disc cannot be accessed after shutdown.
Is there a way I can burn a CD from the files of my Tiger DVD to get this task accomplished?

Excuse me, but I never thought of that, nor did I have any intention of trying to rip off your company.
I purchased four iPods for my family this Christmas. I have six iMacs just sitting around not being used. I thought that I would turn one into an iPod work station, so everyone can use one computer to recharge and hook up to iTunes 7.
Unfortunately, iTunes does not work very well in OS9. Apple decided not to continue to support OS9 very well. I’ve spent several hours attempting to upgrade the iMac so I could set up iTunes 7. Unfortunately, my 3 Panther Installation Discs were mislabeled, and did not allow me to install OSX over OS9. My OSX 10.2.7 Installation Disc is a DVD, and my Tiger Installation disc is a DVD. Neither usable to update the iMac.
All I want to do is set up a dumb iMac as a network interface to my G5 because I've use all of the G5's ports for our recording studio and the iPods need external power source if they are plugged directly into the G5.
If you could show me an easier way to run iTunes 7 on the iMac I wouldn't be as ****** off as I am at Apple for not supporting the 9 older computers I own with usable help and upgrades.

How do you convert channels.dvb to channels.conf

Title says is all. How do you convert the kaffeine file channels.dvb to a channels.conf file which can be used by mplayer.
The winterhill transmitter in the UK is now totally digital, since the change over I've not been able to get BBC channels properly in mplayer. The receiver is a Freecom DVB-T USB. I've manually edited the uk-WinterHill file with the transmitter info to update it and used it to create a channels.conf file.
scan /usr/share/dvb/dvb-t/uk-WinterHill > /home/~/channels.conf
This picked up pretty much all the channels & I can tune into BBC channels but receive no picture. I've googled a bit and it seems other people have this problem too and they think it's a problem due to the increased power of the signal after the change over to digital. I've tried a variable attenuator which did no good.
I've now found that kaffeine can scan for and find the BBC channels AND it can also play them back properly. So the theory about the signal strength being too much for the freecom sticks attenuator is probably a load of guff, at least in my case.
The data for BBC One from the kaffeine channels.dvb is:-
TV|BBC ONE|101(2)|102(eng),106(eng),|0|4168|4168|Terrestrial|802000|0|v|-1|-1|-1|-1|8|-1|-1|-1|45|105(16)(1)(1)(eng),||9018|-1|0|
The same data from the mplayer/scan channels.conf is:-
BBC ONE:802000000:INVERSION_AUTO:BANDWIDTH_8_MHZ:FEC_2_3:FEC_AUTO:QAM_64:TRANSMISSION_MODE_8K:GUARD_INTERVAL_1_32:HIERARCHY_NONE:101:102:4168
I really don't want to keep kaffeine installed and any links or info that would help convert these channel data files would be greatly appreciated. Seems there are ways to convert them the other way round, but so far I've found nothing to do it fron channels.dvb to channels.conf

Do you want to capture a single frame of the video as a separate image? You can play the video full screen in QuickTime, pause it at the appropriate frame and take a screenshot using shift-command-3.

How do you convert a jar file into a java file, ?

how do you convert a jar file into a java file ?
I am new to Java ,but have a little experience in C++ and Visual Basic.
I want to edit and maybe create my own mobile games that are written or converted into jar files.
At the moment I am using Java NetBeans , and Easy Java( the java pad).
However the only solution I tried was to open the JAR file in winrar and see that its made up of png picture files,
midi music files and class files. Unfortunately when I uncompressed the JAR file , there was NO java file to be seen and the JAVA editors Do not show the class file like a Java file. So why is there no extension Java file in the mobile JAR game ?

Are you saying you want to take existing games and modify them? If the creators allow you to modify their source, then they'll provide you with that source (the .java files). If you're allowed to add things but not modify, you don't need .java files. Just documentation, which, again, the creators should be providing.
Or are you saying you want to create your own games and distribute them in jar files? If so, there's no need to turn jars into .java.

HOW DO YOU CONVERT IPHOTO 8.1 TO APERTURE FILE FORMATT

how do you convert iphoto 8.1.2 photos to aperture file formatt?

I believe this is still possible if the iPhoto library has not been up graded.
No joy, Frank. This is what I get, when I try to import an older iPhoto Library into Aperture 3.4.3 using "File > Import > Library":
Aperture 3.4.x insists on the library being converted to 9.4.x. To be able to import earlier iPhoto Libraries you would have to fall back on Aperture 3.2.x; temporarily install a second, older Aperture version, create a new Aperture library with this version, import the iPhoto Libraries, then open this Aperture library in Aperture 3.4.3 to convert it to a current version.
bertpa, how many iphoto photos are we talking abourt? If you are having several iPhoto libraries with thousands of edited photos, it really would be worth it to upgrade to iPhoto 9.4 to convert your libraries. iPhoto 9.4 will convert your library to a format with Master-version pairs like aperture uses. If you import this to Aperture, you will be able to import each edited image as a single image with two versions (original and edited)- importing from previous iPhoto versions you would be importing each edited image as two separate images - an edited image and the original. This would be wasteful, if you have many photos in Aperture, and it would cause a lot of additional work to get these duplicates sorted out. But if you only have a handful of iPhoto images, launch iPhoto and use the "File > Export" command to export your photos from iPhoto to a folder. You will have to do it twice - once to export the originals and once to export the edited versions. Then import your exported iPhoto photos into Aperture.

HT3825 so how do you convert the raw files to jpeg in iphoto?

how do you convert the raw files to jpeg in iphoto?

Many thanks Barbara and dj_paige.
What I didn't mention is that I'm using PSE 5 with ACR 4.6, if its relevant. I'm thinking of updating to the next version when its out in the hope that it will run with Windows 7 64 bit or I may go to Lightroom.
I can now see that I can batch convert a whole folder of files using "process multiple files" as dj_paige suggested but that is too many at once as the settings I choose won't be relevant for all the pics in the folder.
I was hoping to batch convert say 5 or 6 similar photos at a time with the same settings. I'm not quite clear what you're suggesting but I'm hoping that its a "work round" using two stages to achieve this.
I can't see a list of open files within ACR to ensure that they are all selected as you suggest.
What does clicking Open rather than Done mean? Does this amend the original RAW file to the settings selected so that if I then "process multiple files" on the whole folder to convert from RAW to JPEG they will in fact have already been processed in smaller groups so I can convert without applying any further changes?
If so, what settings should I apply to "process multiple files" to ensure a simple conversion of file type rather than any further adjustments?
Any further help on this would be much appreciated.

How do you convert 60fps to 24fps in FCP X

How do you convert 60fps to 24fps in FCP X for or do I need to figure out the percentages and use that optical flow tool, because I have tried to figure it out but there is a blurry trail when I use the optical flow tool.

Thanks Tom, so can you do that after it's already been imported? I am out shooting this afternoon, but I will look for it when I get back to the studio. I appreciate the help, I haven't had a lot of time to spend relearning FCP, so any help I can get to make my life easier is super appreciated.
Cheers,
Matt

How do you convert a Modbus Datatype TIME in Lookout

How do you convert a Modbus Variable with a Datatype of TIME in a Lookout Expression to display MMS.

The URL provided above must be an internal N.I. link - for us folks on the outside it's
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/1A3BB7B3299C11C78625680C004DA744
I use a time_to_word function in the modicon when I need to display a data type of time in Lookout. What you get when looking at the register with the modbus object in Lookout is the time in msecs - just divide by 1000 to get the seconds. But you must 'build' the display for minutes, hours, etc. The numeric displays in Lookout are not
based on seconds, they are based on days as the above knowledge base article indicates. The following will work on a word read from the modicon, and may or may not work with a data type of time. The expression
(Modbus1.400001/86400000)
first takes the number in msecs and divides by the number of msecs in a day. This puts the number into a fraction of a day that Lookout can then display using the numeric formats such as "HH:MMS". I know it’s a little clumsy to divide that number for every time value – but hopefully you don’t have a lot of these expressions. Hope this helps.

How do you convert mov to wav files?

How do you convert .mov files to .wav files in iMovie 10? I can no longer find the Share/Quicktime/Options tabs.

* the .mov container can be handled by any PC with a free download of Quicktime for Windows; but many PC users hesitate doing so, because on the Apple website it looks like you instali iTunes too... many PC don't like that...
* .mp4 can be handled by any actual PC mediaplayer... again: PC users are used to import .wmv (or the very old .avi container/not supported by YouTube)
* for exporting .wmv on a Mac, you need to buy a licence at www.flip4mac.com
* mpeg... the MotionPictureExpertGroup published many codecs... mpeg1, mpeg2, mpeg4, h261, h264. .... but using iM as exporter, all these mpegs will be "hidden" in the QT container .mov... with QTpro you can strip-off the container, but I recommed the beginner to use one of the above mentioned options......
