How to determine the bit rate with button over video subtitles?

I have a project where I've got several questions that come up on the screen. The DVD is subtitled in 14 languages, so depending on the language chosen, it will show the question in the proper language along with navigation buttons to go to the next question or track.
The problem is this: I added several new questions that each have a black only video that runs about 1min with 14 subtitle tracks made from photoshop psds. When I try to build, it fails saying "bit rate too high." When I removed all but 5 of the subtitle tracks, then it would build. I came up with a workaround, but then hit the limit of 99 tracks, menus or stories on a DVD.
I went back and tried combining all 3 questions in to one slide, but now with more information on the psd, it will only allow 3 subtitle tracks before it reaches the max bit rate.
How does it determine the bit rate? What can I do to lower the rate? I tried compressing the video at the lowest bitrate, but it didn't' help. I tried changing the psds to much smaller jpg files, but it didn't change anything. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know!
Thanks.

CS,
Almost all DVD SP Tracks should first be completely constructed in a Sequence in FCP, the markers placed there, and then everything encoded into a single Mpeg 2 clip with matching length audio (even if just low bit rate AC3 silent audio, as the case may be, because all Mpeg 2 clips in the Title domain should be accompanied by an audio stream), and then imported into DVD SP.
Lay your subtitles under that and see what happens.
Take care,

  • Buttons over video, subtitle stream displays on wrong story!

    Here's a quick run down of my project:
    the client has a video program which should play two different ways. the first button on my main menu should play the video program with no subtitle streams on. the second button on my main menu enables the same program to be played only now with subtitles stream 1 turned on. the subtitle stream is serving as buttons that appear over the video which jump to other submenus.
    my problem is that the first button, no matter what i've tried, still displays the subtitles stream though i don't want it to. i have one track of the video with two stories, 1 for display without the subtitle track and the other to display with the subtitle track. the button for the 1st story is set with the "view" option unchecked for subtitle stream 1 while the second is set with the "view" box checked...yet it still displays both! i've checked my disc options and the subtitle track's "view" is unchecked...
    i'm at a loss for what else to try. please help!

    i'm encountering the exact same problem with buttons over video in dvd studio pro. despite of the fact that the simulation within dvd studio pro works flawlessly, after buidling the video_TS folder and opening it in the dvd-player application, you can't hide the subtitles anymore (you can set the subtitle-streams in the menu to whatever you like but the subtitles never disappear). the same problem exists if i burn or build and format a physical dvd.
    help is really appreciated! thanks in advance for every hint!

  • How to determine the slew rate of an amplifier using lab view

    gud evening all
    I have an op amp circuit built on the NI ELVIS board and I input a square wave from function generator to the circuit. I have to determine the slew rate of the op amp.In the labs, one would run the square wave over a range of frequencies and stop when the square wave looks like a triangular wave. At that frequency, one would then measure the slope of the signal and that will give you the slew rate. How can I do that in LabVIEW? How can I check when my square wave starts looking like a triangular wave? please help
    good
    good

    thank you johnsold
    i designed a voltage follower using 741, on an Ni elvis instrument. i can manually do the slew rate experiment by varying the frequency range on the coasre frequency knob( using a square wave) of the function generator until the slew rate occurs at 0.5volts, my problem is how can i do the same experiment with built in vi in labview with out touching the knob on the function generator and once the triangular wave starts to show the lab view program will automatically stop.

  • How can  edit the Bit Rate on my music?

    I have downloaded some lectures that are below 128 Bit Rate, so they are not being uploaded onto iTunes Match.
    I was told to change the Bit Rate to 128, and that would solve the problem.
    How do I do that????

    Thank you Airsculpture- I have gone into the menu bar on iTunes, but I can'rt seem to find the location where to choose or select a highter Biz Rate. Can you give me a little more guidance please?
    Limnos- I understand it will not improve the quality. I just need to increase the Biz Rate so it is accepted on iTunes Match. Any Biz rate lower than 128, will not be accepted.

  • How can I reduce the bit rate of songs in my Music Library to enable me to

    At the moment i can only fit about 1300 songs on my iphone and also have used up half the space on my 120gb Classic with 7000 songs which is a lot less than what i was told would fit on. so............
    How can I reduce the bit rate of songs in my Music Library to enable me to fit more songs onto my iPhone or iPod Classic.. and what is the minimum rate that i should stick to in order to retain good sound quality.

    For existing tracks, see:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1550
    For CDs you import in the future, change the Import settings in the iTunes -> General preferences.
    As to what will be a good bit rate, that's going to be up to you and what quality you find acceptable, but many people find that 128 kbps AAC is the optimum balance between small file size and quality.

  • How do I change the bit rate for dls?? How times can I download one song??

    I'm new to iTunes. I already downloaded 3 songs when I realized that the default bit rate is 128Kbps. I tried changing the bit rate to 192Kbps with a (Variable Bit Rate) checked.....unfortunately when I downloaded the next 2 songs the bit rate turned out to be the same.
    Do I have to restart Windows or iTunes before downloading again?
    And now that I have 5 songs with a lower br than I wanted... in order for me to have(download) the song at the higher bit rate...Is it possible to download one song more than once?
    Thanx.

    You have no choice as to bit rate when purchasing from the iTunes Music Store. The official bit rate of all tracks there is 128 kbps (a very few have been reported to be at higher rates, but that's not a choice you can make, it's how the track was encoded by the record company). The setting in the iTunes Importing preference is for tracks you import from CDs only and has no effect on iTMS purchases.
    Is it possible to download one song more than once?
    No. Except in extraordinary circumstances, the iTMS allows only one download per purchase.
    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Discussions page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic before you post a question.

  • How to restrict the quantity & rate of MIRO with MIGO and PO

    Hi friends,
    Can any body tell me how to restrict the quantity & rate of MIRO with MIGO and PO.
    e.g. if we have done MIGO for quantity 10 and the rate maintained in the PO is Rs.100.Then at the time of MIRO system should not allow to change the quantity and rate.
    How we can do this?
    Regards  
    Purnesh Sharma

    Hi,
    You are misunderstanding the use of MIRO.
    If you change the details in MIRO you are NOT changing anything. You are just entering the price and quantity from the Invoice.
    If this price and or qty is different from the GR aqty and PO price then the system will block the invoice for payment (and it can issue messages toinform the buyer if configured correctly).
    The whole design of MIRO is based on the principle that you enter EXACTLY what the vendor has put on the invoice. By preventing the users from changing anything you will get NO mismatched invoices, but you will not be paying the vendor the amount specified on their invoice. This will surely cause problems.
    If you do want to ensure that ONLY the GR qty and the PO price are used and cannot be changed then why not consider using ERS (Eveluated Receipt Settlement. this is basically self billing.
    Effectively you will be paying the vendor based on what you have received in MIGO multiplied by the price from the PO. (which is what you would be doing if you stop any changes in MIRO)

  • Exch.Rate Type for Determining the Proposed Rate

    Dears,
    I defined, in the document type to be used for Goods Receipt, the field T003-KURST (Exch.Rate Type for Determining the Proposed Rate) equal to u2018Pu2019: exchange rate type used also for standard translation for cost planning.
    Then, I created a Purchase Order using a vendor in foreign currency, and in the header section within tab u2018Delivery/Invoiceu2019 in field "Exchange Rate" I filled in the exchange rate valid at the moment of the Purchase Order creation and I also put the flag in the indicator "Fixing of Exchange Rate".
    Afterwards, I posted  the Goods Receipt against the Purchase Order created at the previous step.
    My expectations were to find in FI accounting:
    - 1 line item for stock increase (transaction BSX) valuated using the exchange rate defined in the document type in field T003-KURST;
    - 1 line item for GR/IR increase (transaction WRX) valuated using the exchange rate defined in the Purchase Order and indicated as fixed;
    - 1 line item for difference (transaction PRD) between stock and GR/IR.
    but when I checked the accounting document, these my expectations were not met, because:
    - the line item for stock increase (transaction BSX) has not been valuated using the exchange rate defined in the document type in field T003-KURST, but a differet exchange rate that I didnu2019t find defined for this couple of currencies;
    - the line for GR/IR increase (transaction WRX) has been valuated as expected using the exchange rate defined in the Purchase Order and indicated as fixed;
    - the line item for difference (transaction PRD) between stock and GR/IR has been created.
    The help (F1) for field T003-KURST, show the following indication:
    Exch.Rate Type for Determining the Proposed Rate
        Rate type under which the proposed rate is defined for foreign currency documents.
    Use
        If no exchange rate is specified in the document header when entering documents in foreign currencies, the system will automatically select a rate from the currency translation rate table.  The system then converts all amounts in the document's line items using this exchange rate.
        The system uses the average rate as a default value as long as no other exchange rate type is entered here.
    Based on this message, my expectation is that all documentu2019s line items have to be converted at the exchange rate type defined in field T003-KURST. And in the case mentioned above, the line for stock (BSX) should be converted at exchange rate type defined in field T003-KURST.
    While, correctly, the line for GR/IR (WRX) has been converted at the exchanged rate fixed in the purchase order.
    Can you please let me know how can be fixed the problem for the line related to the stock allowing the conversion using the exchange rate type defined in field T003-KURST?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jody

    Hello Jody,
    kindly consider the information contained under the attached note:
    191927 - Posting logic: GR for foreign currency PO.
    As stated in it:
    Postings to the material stock account (BSX):
    In order to be able to determine the value of the stock posting, the
    valuation methods which exist in the material master in local currency
    (standard price, total value of stock) must be converted into document
    currency. This translation is thus carried out on the posting date with
    the exchange rate type that is assigned to the FI document type used,
    that is, independent from the exchange rate defined in the purchase
    order!
    If no exchange rate type is assigned to an FI document type, the system
    uses exchange rate type M.
    Please, check in your system the settings stored in the customizing
    transaction OBF4 for the document type WE (Goods receipt). If the field
    'Exch.Rate Type for foreign currency documents' is empty, the exchange
    rate type M is used.
    The fixed conversion rate in the purchase order refers to the valuation
    approach in the purchase order and, therefore, to the costs for the
    purchased material. Therefore, the posting amount to the GR/IR clearing
    account (WRX) is converted according to the fixed conversion rate in the
    purchase order header.
    On the other side the fixed conversion rate in the purchase order is not
    designed for converting the posting values to the material stock account
    (BSX). This conversion reflects the situation of the valuation of the
    material stock and is therefore designed to be independent of the
    conversion rate defined in the purchase order. This is what note 191927
    outlines.
    In the note 191927 you will also locate relevant information about the
    postings to the KDM key:
    Exchange rate differences (KDM):
    As of Release 4.0A, exchange rate differences (KDM) can be posted to a
    separate account. The exchange rate differences result from the
    difference of the clearing value on the GR/IR clearing account (WRX) in
    document currency that is translated to the current exchange rate stored
    in the system in local currency from the clearing value in local
    currency that is determined with the conversion factor from the purchase
    order or the invoices.
    The offsetting entry for the exchange rate differences is settled with
    the price difference.
    (Price difference = GR/IR amount - stock value - exchange rate
    difference)
    KDM is only posted during the GR if the flag T169P-XPLCU is initial,
    therefore, KDM postings will not occur during incoming invoices.
    This is determined in the IMG path:
    Materials Management
    -> Logistics Invoice Verification
       -> Incoming Invoice
          -> Configure How Exchange Rate Differences Are Treated
    Here, you have the following options per Company Code:
    .- The exchange rate differences will be calculated from the difference
       between the exchange rate at the time of the goods receipt and the
       exchange rate at the time of the invoice receipt.
    .- The exchange rate differences will be calculated from the difference
       between the exchange rate at the time of the invoice receipt and an
       assumed exchange rate that is valid for a specific amount of time,
       such as a year or a season.
    .- No exchange rate differences will be calculated. Instead, differences
       from exchange rate variations will be considered as price differences
       and posted to a price difference account.
    The field T001A-CURDT for the company code will determine which date is
    relevant to calculate the exchange rate difference.
    This is set under the IMG path:
    Financial Accounting
    -> Financial Accounting Global Settings
       -> Company Code
          -> Multiple Currencies
             -> Define Additional Local Currencies
    So, finally, the value for KDM calculates as difference between
    GR/IR amount in local currency - GR/IR amount in foreign
    currency*exchange rate.
    I hope this information can be of help.
    cheers

  • What are the Bit Rates of the Music Store and Podcasts?

    What is the bit rate quality and format of a song downloaded in the Music Store? And podcasts? Are they perfect, Apple Lossless quality or what...?

    This might be true, but you won't experience any improvement in sound quality. Here's some info on bit rates:
    This was originally posted by the incredible Sparky the wUnderdog
    "As a general principle, you can fit more CDs on your iPod if you encode at lower bitrates (making smaller files), but at the cost of audio quality. Lossless promises to capture all the data on the original CD (thus preserving quality) but coded so the file takes half the space. MP3 and AAC (an implementation of variable bit rate MP4) both eliminate some of the information on the CD in order to compress the digital recording into ever smaller files--the lower the bitrate, the smaller the file, but smaller files mean more information lost and consequent poorer sound quality.
    iTunes's MP3 encoder is so-so; the LAME encoder is better at preserving sound fidelity to the original. AAC files ripped in iTunes certainly sound better than its MP3s, with audio quality close to the best LAME MP3s at higher bitrates. With the type of music I listen to most often, sound quality declines substantially as bitrates fall below 256kbps, but LAME or AAC @ 256kbps sounds pretty darned good, and at 320kbps LAME alt-preset-insane is amazingly faithful to the original. However many users claim that with the music they listen to they can't hear the difference between 192 or even 128 kbps files and the original CD source, so they naturally choose higher compression rates to fit more "songs" on their iPods.
    CDs take approximately 10MB per minute of music; Apple lossless takes 5MB/minute; LAME insane takes 2.5MB/min; AAC or MP3 at 256kbps take 2MB/min; and iTunes Store files (AAC@128kbps) take 1MB/min. At these rates, a 20GB iPod (really 18.6GB) can hold anywhere from 30 hours to over 300 hours of music. (iPod marketers express this potential playback capacity as "songs," figuring 4 minutes per song--thus 300 hours at 128kbps = 4500 "songs.") You will need to listen to samples ripped with different bitrates and codecs to determine the optimum tradeoff point for you between quality & quantity. It's worth taking some time to do this at the start as it sure beats reripping everything in your collection 2 or 3 times to get it right later.
    So far as convenience goes, nothing beats iTunes's one-step process. To change bitrate as you import from CD, go to the iTunes menu > Edit > Preferences, select the Importing tab, choose AAC or MP3 encoder in the "import using" selection box, then choose "Custom" in the "setting" box, and the window permitting bitrate selection will pop up. If you choose iTunes MP3 encoder, at least use VBR (variable bit rate) to maximize the sound quality. (VBR increases sample size as data complexity increases.)
    If you would prefer LAME MP3s, fear not, for the easy-to-use CDex ripping software is a free download and requires only one simple extra step to get the files into iTunes for transfer to your iPod. Now if AAC sound quality is comparable to LAME MP3, you might wonder why you should even consider LAME: Because of portability to other devices. At present, hardly anything but iPods can read AACs or Apple Lossless, but almost everything reads MP3s. So if you plan to burn CDs of your compressed files for playback on your home or car CD player (for instance), it would be wise to choose MP3.
    One other consideration specific to the iPod: It has a 32MB cache. If you choose a compression rate that results in large files (i.e. lossless), then the cache won't hold very much 'music' and the hard drive will have to spin up frequently to fill it, and that will shorten your battery life somewhat."

  • How to determine the ROWNUM in a Master Detail Form

    Hello,
    I am working in a Master Detail Form with Orders and Order Items Information; and I created a process that allows the users to select a Product ID on a tabular form, and the next column is populated automatically with the Product Description.
    To achieve that, I followed some instructions by Denes Kubicek (http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:241), but my case is slightly different:
    <ul>I am using a wizard-created tabular form, instead of a manual tabular form; and </ul>
    <ul>Instead of using another page as a Popup to pass the parameter of the ROWNUM, I am using a plug-in called “Tabular Form Super LOV” which is a modified version of the SkillBuilders’ Super LOV that works on Tabular Forms. </ul>
    The Product ID is returned in the correct row by the plug-in; but in the case of the Product Description, it is always returned into the first row; and my problem is that I don't know how to determine the row where the user clicked to call the plug-in.
    I set up an example in apex.oracle.com in case someone would like to look at it:
    Workspace: ediazjorge
    Username: test
    Password: test
    App Name: Sample App
    App Number: 1550
    BTW, I am using Apex 4.1.1.00.23 and Oracle DB 10.3.2.
    Thanks in advance,
    Erick

    Hello VC,
    Thank you for your time and help.
    Unfortunately, it is still not working properly:
    1. When the Popup LOV opens, the first row of the tabular form is 0, the second row is 1, and so on. How can I assign the values starting with 1 and in the format *0001* ? (I am still a novice on Apex and new to JavaScript :-), sorry about that).
    --2. Also, when I close the Popup LOV, the value of P1_ROWNUM is ‘undefined’ again so I'm not sure if the Product Name column will be populated.--
    3. And finally, you are using the jQuery Selector uPopupLOVIcon, which is an attribute of the Cloudy Theme. In my real application (Apex 4.1.1.00.26), my element looks like: *<img src="/i/lov_16x16.gif" width="16" height="16" alt="Popup Lov" alt="List" style="vertical-align:middle;" align="middle" />*. What do you recommend me to use as a jQuery Selector?
    Again, I really appreciate your help and time. I think you solved the most difficult part.
    Thank you so much,
    Erick
    Update: I just found out that the problem with my comment 2 is because I didn’t delete the previous dynamic action that set the value to P1_ROWNUM.

  • How to determine the mount point for directory /tmp ?

    Folks,
    Hello. I am installing Oracle 11gR2 RAC using 2 Virtual Machines (rac1 and rac2 whose OS are Oracle Linux 5.6) in VMPlayer and according to the tutorial
    http://appsdbaworkshop.blogspot.com/2011/10/11gr2-rac-on-linux-56-using-vmware.html
    I am installing Grid infrastructure. I am on step 7 of 10 (verify Grid installation enviroment) and get this error:
    "Free Space: Rac2: /tmp"
    Cause: Could not determine mount point for location specified.
    Action: Ensure location specified is available.
    Expected value: n/a
    Actual value: n/a
    I have checked the free space using the command:

    As you see above, the free space is enough, but could not determine mount point for /tmp.
    Do any folk understand how to determine the mount point for directory /tmp ?
    Thanks.

    I have just checked "/home/oracle/.bash_profile". But in my computer, there is no "oracle" under /home directory.Is this your first time Linux and Oracle installation? I had a brief look at your referenced link. The reason why you do not find a "oracle" user is because the instructions use "ora11g" instead, which, btw, is not standard. The directories of your installation and your installation source can be somewhat different from known standards and you will have to adjust it to your system.
    My best guess is that you have either missed something in the instructions or you need to ask the author of the blog what is wrong. The chance to find someone here who has experience with these custom instructions is probably unlikely.
    I suggest you try to locate the cluster verification tool, which should be in the bin directory of your grid installation. Alternatively you might want to check the RAC, ASM & Clusterware Installation forum: RAC, ASM & Clusterware Installation

  • How to determine the solution's ID in absl?

    Hello Community,
    I have a simple question yet I fear there is no simple answer (possibly no answer at all).
    The question is:
    Does any body know ways how to determine the ID (e.g. Y123ABCDY_) of the solution the code is running in?
    My use case is the following:
    We have a solution template which will be deployed in different customer tenant.
    Thus, each deployment will have a different solution ID.
    Now, somewhere in code, we generat PDFs using the OutputManagementUtilities.GetPDF reuse library.
    This method requires the form template code of the pdf to be generated as a parameter.
    However, this PDF form template code is composed of the solution ID and a fixed suffix.
    Thus, currently I need to modify the absl code in each customer installation to manually modify the form template code prefix to the solutions solution ID.
    Therefore I'd like to construct the form template code in absl but for this I need a way to determine the solution's ID.
    Any ideas?
    Best regards,
    Ludger

    Hi Fernando.
    After reading your post I initially thought "what is the ObjectTypeCode" supposed to do any good to determine the solution ID"?
    Using the Object Type code of a custom bo is indeed a way to solve this problem.
    With a little additional code I can extract the relevant solution ID part from there.
    Thanks for the hint, that was really useful.
    Best reegards,

  • How to determine the maximum allowable length of a filename for Window ?

    Hi all,
    Could I know how to determine the allowable file length (the length of the absolute path) for a file in Window environment?
    Due to some reason, I generated a zip file with a very long filename ( > 170) and put in a folder(the length of the folder path around 90). The length of the absolute path is around 260.
    I used FileOutputStream with the ZipOutputStream to write out the zip file. Everything is working fine while i generating the zip file.
    However, while i try to extract some files from the zip file i just created, i encountered the error
    java.util.zip.ZipException The filename is too long.
    I am using the class ZipFile to extract the files from the zip file like the following
    String absPath = "A very long filepath which exceed 260";
    ZipFile zipF = new ZipFile(absPath);  //<-- here is the root causeIs it possible to pre-determine the maximum allowable filepath length prior i generate the zip file ? This is weird since i got no error while i created the zip file, but have problem in extracting the zip file ......
    Thanks

    Assuming you could determine the max, what would you do about it? I'd say you should just assume it will be successful, but accommodate (handle) the possible exception gracefully. Either way you're going to have to handle it as an "exception", whether you "catch" an actual "Exception" object and deal with that, or manually deal with the length exceeding the max.
