How to compress a 120 VDV video with compressor?

hello, I would like to know how to compress a video more than 2hours on a DVD of 8.5G

Just to add:
Essentially the same steps that I gave for FCP>Share would be followed in Compressor, except you would select the job in the Batch window and then go to the jobs action tab. (An advantage of using Compressor is that you could insert chapter markers.)

  • Imovie is limited to its import formats and does not allow for storing video in any rawformat.  Which means all videos will contain lossy compression applied to the video-.with no way to edit full format video.  Is this statement true?

    Imovie is limited to its import formats and does not allow for storing video in any rawformat.  Which means all videos will contain lossy compression applied to the video….with no way to edit full format video.  Is this statement true? Does iMovie support HD 1080p @ 60 fps?

    yes and no!
    using the intended Import from Camera routines, iM converts automatically in its very own AppleIntermediateCodec. so, answer is yes.
    but …
    a) Apple claims , aic is non-lossy intermediate codec. working with proRes in FCPX taught me, there are even less non-lossy-ness codecs
    b) iM offers an Archive feature, which is basically a simple Finder/copy operation which 'clones' your SDcards content into some folder on your harddrive; e.g. you can later use these untouched  'raws' in another editor such as FCPX. so, answer is no.
    c) when you 'override' the import routines by manually re-wrapping mts into a mov container, iM handles the 'native' h264s ... so, answer is no.
    d) adding any effect, transition etc. reduces any interlaced source to 540p. (if you're working with 720p source, res is kept) … so, answer is yes. or, in 720p case, no.
    < Johnny Depp's voice >… savvy?
    Does iMovie support HD 1080p @ 60 fps?
    via Import from Camera? No.
    via re-wrapped mts>>mov? I was told yes, some say no.
    one thing to be kept in mind when talking about these 'issues':
    iM, this 12€, is meant as a CONSUMER toy tool.
    it supports AVCHD vers1 (=no 1080/60p, no >24Mbps, no 3D).
    fingers crossed, we'll see soon some iM/QT/FCPX update for support of AVCHD v2 ........
    the main consumer devices are within the specs, iM supports.
    using professional equipments makes usage of professional software (FCPX, AP) optional.
    sorry for lengthy answer.

  • How do I synchronise audio and video with an mpg file created in elements 11 ?

    How do I synchronise audio and video with an mpg file created in Premier Elements 11 ?
    The source files are VOB files, and there is no problem with those source files.  But after creating the mpg file, the audio can be out of sync by 1 second or even 10 seconds, and sometimes zero seconds (ie perfectly OK).  That varies.  The variation might be linked to some of the VOB files.  ie. some are OK, and some are not.
    Can I fix this automatically in Elements 11, or am I doing something wrong ?

    Hartwood,
    First, Premiere (both Pro and Elements) do not handle MPEG Audio perfectly - they like some files, but not all files with MPEG Audio. That makes a VOB a less-than-perfect source file. Still, with a bit of work, one should be able to edit it just fine. One of the factors is that there is a very slight block-size difference between the Encoded Video Stream and the Encode Audio Stream in a muxed MPEG-2 file. That often does not play into things, but can cause slight OOS (Out of Sync) issues. Also, both Premieres need to create all I-Frame files for the Video Stream, which is in GOP (Group of Pictures) structure, so what one sees on the Timeline is really a proxy of the MPEG-2 file's Video Stream. The Audio Stream must also be Conformed to PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 32-bit floating point, to be edited. That Conforming is perfect when one has PCM/WAV @ 48KHz 16-bit for the Audio Stream, but requires more work, when the Audio Stream is MPEG (one reason that some MP3's do not work well in Premiere). Several factors involved here, and a fair amount of work for the program. That is why DV-AVI Type II w/ 48KHz 16-bit PCM/WAV Audio works so perfectly.
    Now, fixing OOS might be easy, or might require a bit more work. This article goes into some workflows, that might be helpful: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/436751?tstart=0
    I can feel your pain, as I almost went crazy trying to fix OOS in a client's Project. They ONLY had the finished DVD, from which to work. The disc met the DVD-standards, so everything ripped/Imported fine, and when the simple edits were done (IIRC, there were four scenes, that had to be shortened, and then several Titles added), everything played fine in the Timeline. However, when I Transcoded that Timeline to be authored in Adobe Encore, two scenes went OOS. I went back to Premiere, and checked - all perfect there. I tried to judge the number of Frames that the Audio was out, in those scenes, and nudged them, tested, nudged, tested, and no matter what I did, I could never get the output files perfect, when Imported into Encore for authoring to DVD-Video. I tried DV-AVI, and letting Encore set the Transcoding automatically (usually a great way to work), I tried manually setting the Transcoding in Encore. I tried outputting to MPEG-2 from Premiere, and Importing that. No matter what I did, those two scenes were just OOS, and I could not even seem to improve them - it was like they were just locked OOS. I finally did some more editing, to break things up a bit, added a cut-away shot here, and there, and minimized the perceived OOS, but could never get it perfect. It was like trying to pick up quicksilver with a pair of tweezers!
    Good luck,

  • How to record a time-limited video with Adobe AIR for iOS

    I am trying to record a time-limited video with Adobe AIR for iOS.
    For example, I want to implement the following function. Start a one-minute timer before launching CameraUI to record video. When the timeout event happens after one minute, stop recording video, close the CameraUI view and obtain the video data so far.
      I have several questions related to that.
      1. How to stop recording video from outside the CameraUI view(in this case, from the timeout event handler) and then close the CemeraUI view? As far as I know, to close the CameraUI view, the only way is to press the [Use Video] button or the [Cancel] button from inside the CameraUI view. Is it possible to close it from outside?
      2. Even if the first problem mentioned above is solved, then how can I get the video data so far(in this case, the video data before the timeout). I know that normally we can get a MediaPromise object from MediaEvent parameter of the  complete handler, and read the video data from the MediaPromise object. But obviously in this case, we can not access the MediaPromise object just because the complete handler itself will not be executed since the [Use Video] button is not pressed.
      3. Is it possible to add a stopwatch to show possible remaining recording time when CameraUI view is open? It seems that the CameraUI automatically uses the full screen of iOS device(in my case, iPad) and there is no extra space to show the stopwatch.
      Are there any solutions or workarounds about the three problem above? I really appreciate it if anyone has any idea about this. Thanks in advance.

    You'd have more control by using the Camera object, showing the camera on a video object inside a Sprite, and capturing that. Then you could put whatever graphics alongside it on the stage.. I've used FlashyWrappers in a test to capture the video to the library.  It took some work, but the test worked well...

  • How can I create a live video with my mac mini?

    I have a new mac mini and a logitech webcam, ilife 2011, even a professional external mike, if necessary.  How can I create a live video to upload to YouTube and the like?

    If you're talking about LIVE video (as in, people can see what you're doing RIGHT NOW), you can't host that on Youtube (yet), although there are applications (not part of iLife, though) to let you stream to a personal website. If you just want to record yourself, then upload it, sure, you can do so using iMovie 11.
    This page explains iMovie's iSight import feature - provided your webcam is supported, the same should work for you.

  • How to add website name to video with QTX?

    I want to add the name of my website to video clips in such a way that it will be difficult for others to copy the video, remove my website name and republish it without any credit to me. At present I am using QuickTime to 'Save for Web' and then uploading the resultant file (M4V) to my website. The videos are just video blogs so they're not high-tech productions!
    I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.7. I used to have Quicktime Player 7 Pro. I now seem to be running QuickTime Player 10.0
    I cannot find a User Guide to QTP 10. The user guide for QTP7 does refer on page 35 to adding text to a video but a) it refers to a Clipboard I can't find and the menu options don't match what I'm looking at in QTP10; and b) if I can find a way to follow these instructions, how easy will it be for someone to simply download my video file and remove the text anyway?
    I'd appreciate any help or advice you can offer.

    I am running Snow Leopard 10.6.7. I used to have Quicktime Player 7 Pro. I now seem to be running QuickTime Player 10.0... The user guide for QTP7 does refer on page 35 to adding text to a video but a) it refers to a Clipboard I can't find and the menu options
    If you had QT 7 keyed for "Pro" use when you upgraded to OS X.6, then a Snow Leopard versions of the QT 7 Pro player should have been placed in the "Applications/Utilities" folder automatically. Alternately, if you still cannot find QT 7 on your upgraded system, you could try using the free MPEG Streamclip application. In many ways it functions as a QT 7 Pro alternative for conversions, merging files, and such but does not have QT 7 Pro's layering and masking features. However, it does have a built-in text "watermarking" feature in the "Adjustments" window. I.e., instead of using the QT X "Save for Web" option, you would use the MPEG Streamclip "Export to MPEG-4" option and add your "text" watermark before actually performing the export. Alternatively, many QT 7 Pro users add a graphic watermark or logo as a means of identifying their content. If interested, here are a couple of old QT "Quickie" tutorials for adding a graphic logo/watermark:
    Adding a Graphic Logo
    Adding a Graphic Watermark
    how easy will it be for someone to simply download my video file and remove the text anyway?
    If you embed a watermark or logo before exporting your file to its final compression format for posting to your site, then it is virtually impossible to remove totally without editing each frame of your clip at the pixel level. (It would, however, be easy to cover the logo or watermark with an opaque mask.) On the other hand, if you add the logo or watermark, text or graphic, as a post export edit in its own track layer, then it is quite easy to remove it using an application like QT 7 Pro or, in rare cases, by simply copying the main audio/video tracks to a different file container type.

  • How to create professional quality HD Video with Premiere Elements

    This is a guide for Premiere Elements 11 that can be adapted to other versions.
    Professional video must be at very high bitrates (50-100 Mbps) to minimize quality loss
    from compression across multiple generations, with chroma subsampling of at least 4:2:2.
    (Many broadcasters will reject video below 50 Mbps.)
    The best Computer preset options available in Premiere Elements 11 for professional output:
    AVI: Advanced: Video Codec: Uncompressed UYVY 422 8bit
    QuickTime: Advanced: Video Codec: Uncompressed YUV 10 bit 4:2:2
    QuickTime: Advanced: Video Codec: Uncompressed YUV 8 bit 4:2:2
    Best possible quality, but gigantic file size, may well be impractical.
    MPEG: HDTV 1080p High Quality
    Use Advanced to set the Video: Profile to 4:2:2; check Render at Maximum Depth; and set Target Bitrate (Mbps) to 50-100. VLC Media Player can be used to play the output file. In general, this is the most practical standard option.
    AVCHD: MP4 - H264 1920x1080p
    Unfortunately, only chroma subsampling of 4:2:0 is supported.
    A good alternative to these standard options is to install and use the free Avid DNxHD codec, which is widely accepted professionally. Download and install it from here, and then reboot your computer. To use it in Premiere Elements, select Publish+Share: Computer: QuickTime: Advanced.
    In the Video tab:
    Set Video Codec to Avid DNxHD Codec.
    Click Codec Settings, and set desired Resolution (e.g., 1080p/29.97 DNxHD 36 8-bit).
    Set Width and Height to 1920 and 1080 respectively.
    Set Frame Rate as desired.
    Field Type should normally be set to Progressive.
    Set Aspect to Square Pixels (1.0).
    Check Render at Maximum Depth.
    In the Audio tab:
    Set Audio Codec to Apple Lossless.
    Click OK, and Save your new preset with a meaningful name.
    QuickTime can be used to play the output file.
    Hope that helps!

    While consumers are indeed the intended audience of PE, it's nonetheless usable for professional output when you don't need the full capabilities and complexity of PP. I use both, and while I do sometimes need PP, I often find PE suited to the job at hand,
    PE does support MPEG-2 4:2:2P@HL. (I just tested it in PE11 to be sure.)
    AVCHD, while originally introduced as a format for consumer use, is now widely accepted as a professional format -- Panasonic and Sony both make professional AVCHD camcorders.
    Regardless, I prepared this guide especially for those who don't use PP -- even with the easier pricing of CC, PP can be too steep a learning curve for an occasional professional job when PE can get it done.

  • How would you edit a blurry video with such lightning?

    Hello there! It's my first video and I really need your help guys. I have no idea how to adjust this to look less blurry, the lighting was bad so nothing works as I would want to. Saturation just makes it more blurry, same for contrast. Sharp doesn't work at all. I've already tried to mess with three way color corrector but I have no idea which to choose, and anyway it won't remove the blurry effect for sure. Just give me some combinations, I hope someone already made a room video look nice. The problem was the camera - it was recorded with my phone, so that's probably the main factor. I work in CS6, and it's an amazing program, props to all of you that know it well!

    Have you tried the Make Beuatiful Filter?  Just kidding!  First of all if you want good video, don't use your phone.  Video production is not cheap and you can't cut corners if you want it to look good.  Okay enough of the lecture. 
    You could try shriking the video, that may make it look less blurry.  If you shot in in HD, resize it down to an SD size.  Not the best for full screen playback, but mayby good enough for youtube.
    Look into renting a small video package for your next shoot.  You will be glad you did.
    Good luck.

  • How to use itunes for making video with software Studio

    How can I use my downloaded music files with my video making software?

    Purchased music from the iTUnes store is in a "AAC protected" format. It can only be used in iTUnes. Any music you buy online these days will have some protection on it where you can only use it in there program.
    The way around this is to burn the purchased songs to a CD in iTUnes. Then goto edit>preferences>advanced tab>Import sub tab and set your import settings to something like MP3.
    Now put the burned CD back in the PC and "Re"import it into iTunes so its imported in a MP3 format so you can use it in any program. Before importing it tho you need to manually add the name of the song, artist album ect ect

  • HT3775 How can I open an AVI Video with my MacBook Pro?? Do I need to do something special?

  • How can you create a karaoke video with the music lyrics?

    I'm working on a generic music video.  I want to add written lyrics to the video so that people watching can follow along with the singing.  What is the best way to create trailing lyric highlights to the way the song is sung?  

    QuickTime Player Pro ($30) and lots of patience.
    QuickTime Player supports "text" tracks and, with some special manipulation, can display the text "karaoke" style.
    QuickTime Player 7.6.6 (not the X version) can play ".kar" files. Millions of them found on the Web and easy to download. They include MIDI audio (computer generated sound) and are very tiny in file size.
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/64/
    I downloaded a .kar file using QuickTime Player Pro and the Movie Properties window, extracted the text track and then changed the text using TextEdit. I then added my new text track and deleted the original.

  • How to achieve streaming audio and video with SBS 2003

    Basic Fact:  SBS 2003 is frozen at SP1.  I am connecting to Verizon DSL--now Frontier DSL-- using their DSL modem, which is a Linksys 7550 modem.  The gateway on the modem card is 192.168.254.254.  Communication to and from the internet
    works, but there is apparently a lot of noise on the line and SBS2003 responds by disconnecting the WAN line.  I have to get to the Network Connections page, select the WAN connector, right-click it and tell it to repair itself (an image that is definitely
    R-rated).  Where can tell the system to not disable the WAN line if it detect some noise?  This process of repairing the line is inconnevient when I am in the room with the SBS box, and impossible if I am trying to stream video to the set in the
    living-room.

    Hi Hollis:
    It is not clear why the server is in play here.  If you have a "better than average" firewall at the edge you can use SBS in a single NIC config and from your living room go straight to the internet through the firewall and the ISP device
    without impacting the SBS other than for DNS.
    And if you don't care about who accesses your internal network from the internet a "better than average" firewall would not be required.
    Larry Struckmeyer[MVP] If your question is answered please mark the response as the answer so that others can benefit.
    Larry,
    Thanks for the reply. What you are really saying is that SBS server is so complicated and. because so little is documented about its guts and internal workings, that it is better to treat it as a black box and use an external solution. That is a sad commentary
    on a really good product, even if I am frozen at 2003 SP1. There really has to be somewhere that the wan line is set to be disabled on the lowest level of noise. There should be a means of boosting that trigger level. If we just knew where it is done.
    Given that that we really are dealing with a black box here, can you give me the names of a few firewalls qualifying as "better than average". I do recognizing that I am living at that queasy stage where any major catastrophy with the server will
    cause complete abandonment of the server, and all the conveniences it provides. When the motherboard died last time I bit the bullet and replaced it at not too great a cost. So, here we are again--do I convert to just Frontier security offerings and google
    apps. Google is notorius for providing no support. Then again, the Microsoft products are so bloated that I use less than 10% of any one. Fortunately, that 10% has really never needed any support. And I have pretty much given up pondering the use of XML due
    to a dirth of info from Microsoft about it. Sigh. I think I had better take a dramamine before going farther into the murk here.

  • How do I save photos and videos with Photo Stream that don't come back to my phone once they stream to my computer?

    When I take pictures they stream to iCloud and the photo stream works fine. But when I delete photos on my iphone4S they end up being put back on the phone by photo stream and or when I sync the phone.

    There are a few reason why the songs might not have "matched." The bit rate is too low or too high (probably not the latter), or the files are over 200 MB. Or perhaps the songs were purchased from the iTunes Store using an account your iTunes is not authorized for.
    So you can use Get info... to get all this information on the songs. If the tracks is encoded at lower than 96 Kbps it will be ineligible. One thing you can try is converting the songs to AAC, then add them to iCloud.

  • How to achieve good non-interlaced video using compressor (newbie question)

    Dear all,
    I am completely at sea but I know that I have to use the "none" setting for the field order and cannot for the life of me work this out.
    Now- I usually export direct from Final Cut Pro (H.264, best quality etc etc) but this time the exported QT file just will not de-interlace (not my footage but I have to deliver the edit), come **** or high water.
    So- a kind soul said to use Compressor... And to not use any field ordering.
    But HOW? I watched videos, sought to use the instructions given me here but am still totally lost.
    What I did:
    1. Launched Compressor,
    2. Dragged in the self-contained reference QT file from my desktop,
    3. Picked a setting (H.264 which has field reordering ON by default),
    4. Dropped the "setting" into the blue field to right of clip thumb,
    5. Double-clicked the "setting" and then-
    6. picked the "Encoder" button, as instructed but cannot change the Field Order.
    Because Compressor is completely new to me I don't know if I ought to NOT pick a setting until I have it how I want it, saved it as a "custom setting" and THEN bring it into the project or if I am to do it once brought in to the project. Either way- how to change the field order to "none". Or should I pick a de-interlace filter? Just that I have been looking and testing and nothing I do creates a de-interlaced final file.
    All the tutorial videos I have watched (erm- about 5 now) go over exporting and how to pick your settings from those which exist but what I need to know is how to change a setting to suit (ie get rid of the evil interlacing).
    I am hoping someone here can give me a very simple step by step or point me in the direction of one.

    Let me see if I can wrap my head around what you're trying to do. You started with an HD timeline 1280 x 720 (16:9). Into this you want to add your SD PAL clips, shrunk down for a picture in picture effect (a completely different concept from multicam.) But your shrunk down clips have nasty interlacing, and the one clip which was meant to be full frame looks like rubbish, right? Sorry but there's no way to blow a clip up 180% and have it look even halfway decent. At least not in FCP. Compressor has an upscale algorithm, available in the same Frame Controls tab where you did the de-interlacing, which can give you somewhat better results. There's also a plug-in from Red Giant called Instant HD which may or may not yield better results than Compressor.
    Here's where you went wrong. The clips to be shrunk should have been deinterlaced before bringing them into FCP, and into your sequence. Go ahead and do this, using the ProRes 422 setting, with the deinterlacing technique from before.
    Your sequence in FCP is fine, except that you want to change its compressor to ProRes 422 so that it matches your newly imported de-interlaced clips.
    You want to de-interlace your P2 1080i clips beforehand as well. The other change to make to your sequence is to change Field Dominance to None.
    If you've already finished your edit, you can still do all of the de-interlacing, outputting all of the results to a new folder. But you have to do every source clip in its entirety if you want to re-link to retain your edit.
    When Compressor's done - this will probably take all night - open your FCP project, select all the source clips, right-click and choose Reconnect Media. Locate the newly de-interlaced ProRes clips and Connect.
    Then you only need to export your sequence as a Quicktime Movie, Current Settings, Self-contained. This will give you a pristine master which will play fine on your computer, and from which you may then use Compressor to create a web or dvd version as needed.

Maybe you are looking for
