How to estimate gigabites per minute of video/audio recording

Is there a basic equation that I can use when trying to estimate the number of gigabites my original video/audio footage will consume when I download it from my miniDV Camcorder? Thanks

How Many MB/GB per Minute of Video?

I'm trying to decide which iPhone 5S to purchase 32gb or 64gb. Since there's been a few more improvements, since the 4S, I'll be depending on this more to shoot videos of my kids while vacationing, sports, etc. with maybe no place to upload.
Is there a standard, for this quality of video, of how many MB or GB it equals to in minutes and/or hours?
Thanks

Correct. When you did that, you voided all warranty/support, & forfeited the right to an out of warranty replacement.
There was nothing wrong with the screen I bought,
And, exactly, how do you know that? Since Apple DOES NOT sell iPhone parts, there is no official source for genuine parts. Thus, many on the market are counterfeit & produce nothing but problems.
Good luck.

I'm moderating a competition which will be about 8 hours long. I need to have a video/audio recording of the whole thing incase an answer is contested. We will need to stop recording and access the footage as the day progresses. Any suggestions?

Compressor taking about an hour per minute of video

Hi, I've been trying for a week now to get my 1 hour 42 minute HD video to compress for a DVD. I've tried a bunch of different settings and I finally got one that works good. But it's taking about 1 hour for every minute of video that it's compressing and I'm trying to have DVDs made by this Saturday. All of the other setting that I've tried so far have taken days at a time, then failed with only a few hours left. Does anybody know of any faster way of doing this without losing quality?
I'm using a macbook pro, the video is AVCHD 1920 X 1080 using AIC. I'm using MPEG-2 with 2 pass VBR, all frame controls on "Better" in Compressor. I like the quality (I tried a 7 minute clip of it already) and I want these DVDs to be at least that quality, but it doesn't seem like it should be taking so long.
Thanks,
Lisa

Lisa,
you're on a MBP si there really isn't a lot you can do but reduce quality. You have only two cores. I'm hesitant to reccomend that you setup a cluster in qmaster. You'd be using all your cores. I'd want you to have at least one gig of free memory for each core, and I don't know how many you have. On the bigger multicore machines we'd assign 50-75% of the cores to the cluster assuming plenty of ram. Your drives aren't helping but at this point it's processing power rather than drive speed. You could try disomnia from digitalrebellion.com to keep them awake, and set your energy settings panel to prevent drives from sleeping

How Much External Hard Drive Partition Recommended for Audio Recording?

Hi,
I have a glyph 300 gigabyte drive. Does anyone have thoughts on how to partition it? I was thinking 200 gb for samples, etc and 100gig for recording audio? Is that too much or too little for recording audio? Or should I use all 300 gigs for audio recording. I also want to do video editing in FCP eventually.
Thanks

Okay...There are 3 guys and each has a basket full of marbles. The 1st guy has a basket full of red marbles, the second guy has a basket full of blue marbles, and you have a basket full of red and blue marbles. All three of you have your left hand tied behind your back. You are in competition with the other two guys, you are on your own and they work as a team. Someone starts shouting give me 3 reds and 2 blue marbles. You reach in your basket and grab 3 reds and 2 blues as fast as you can, but the other guys are way ahead of you because there are 2 of them and they each only have to worry about grabbing one color of marble at a time. So you lose the contest badly... that is why you need at least
2 hard drives instead of just one (whether partitioned or not). Buy an external firewire drive. you'll be glad you did.

How to connect JVC DVd player and video cassette recorder to QIP 7100 and Panasonic TC-32lx44

What cables do I need to connect my DVD/VCR recorder through my QIP 7100 to see on my TV? I would appreciate any assistance with this since I am a novice.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You cannot run ANY signal through a Set top box to a Television. The only input on the boxes that is actually functional is the coaxial cable. The only way your are going to connect your DVD player to the TV is via one of the AV inputs on the Television itself.
Hopefully your Television has at least 2 sets of AV inputs, because you are going to need them. 1 for the VCR and 1 for the DVD player.
Depending upon the TV, VCR and DVD player, the connections possible are:
1). HDMI cable from TV to DVD if the DVD player has HDMI and the TV has a 2nd HDMI input. It is very unlikely your VCR supports HDMI.
2). Component Video (RGB) plus Audio AV cables from audio and component outputs on the DVD player to a set of component and coresponding audio inputs on the Television. It is unlikely that your VCR supports component video.
3). S-VHS cable from DVD player or VCR to S-VHS input on the TV (if there is one), and audio AV cables from the audio outputs on the DVD/VCR player to the corresponding audio input on the TV for the S-VHS cable. If S-VHS is not available, you can use composite video instead. HDMI and Component video will give you the best picture and composite video will give you the lowest quality picture, but depending upon the equipment, your VCR may not have an S-VHS output available.

I have a Zoom Q3 HD video/audio recorder, that records me playing the drums. How can I add the sound of the song I am playing to to this audio/video mix. Can this be done with Garage Band or iMovie?

Any clues???

Video + audio recorded in Quicktime X is out of sync when used in iMovie

I have recorded video in Quicktime X. When I try to edit it in iMovie, the audio and video are out of sync. They are in sync if I play the video in Quicktime. I am using the latest version of iMovie '11. Anyone know how I can fix this?

You should not HAVE TO but did you try extracting out the audio? This has been a issue for a long time. I am not sure why you never see this problem in Final Cut but it rears its ugly head in iMovie all the time. What do the call it now? Oh yes... detach. Select the clip then Clip -> Detach audio and line it back up.

Version 4+, extensions for video & audio record/save, great. Now, version 5... they are all gone! Why?

Firefox kept putting box on screen to inform me to download new version 5. I finally did. Now, the extensions I did have are no longer there. How do I get them back? Will they work with V5?

Due to security vulnerabilities, rolling back to Firefox 4.0.1 is not recommended. Firefox 3.6.18 would be the safer choice.
Here's the process to roll back:
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
Close Firefox 5.
You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.

Thank you for the warning about 16 bit. I wish you would tell me why it is important to set to 16 bit, though.

How do I add more than one video per track/layer?

Hi.
Could someone please advise me how I can add more than one video to a track/layer?
I'm cutting and pasting parts and each time I paste, a new track/layer is added.
The final video is going to be approximately 5 minutes long.
I am 17 seconds in and have 54 tracks already!
How do I stop this?
Thank you very much
J

More video tracks. This is actually what you want.
Unless you're just making a still image (like Photoshop), multiple layers give you control to animate each individually. (If it's just a Photoshop comp you're after, you may want to create it in Photoshop)
If you want to move ALL OF THE VIDEO TRACKS TOGETHER, you can use
parenting or
precompose those individual layers into a single composition.

How can I download a 18 minute video I recorded from my iPad to either email or youtube or vimeo I keep getting the message the file is too long.

How can I transfer a 18 minute video I recorded on my iPad camera app to email/youtube or vimeo? I keep getting the message the file is too long do want to send clips?
Thanks

Youtube usually had an 8 minute length cap, which may be part of your issue. Also at 18 minutes that is probably a gig+ file size, which will also take a long time to upload and may be another part of the issue.
Edit it down as jim suggested. Or you may need to use something like dropbox, to get it off your ipad and onto a computer where might have more options to edit it down or size it down.
If it's just file size you can transcode it into a smaller file - a lower quality MP4 for example. If it's the length that's an issue for youtube, you'll need to break it up into a couple different files and upload part 1 and part 2

How do I count and display events every few seconds and then convert the counted values into events per minute? (for a heart rate monitor)

Hi everyone,
I'm building a heart rate monitor as a final year project with my lab partner using the NI USB-6009 and Labview 2009. We have managed to obtain a signal using a photo transciever, smooth it out and count the events, however the count is incremental.
We wish to count the number of pulses we obtain for a few seconds (5-10 for example) and then use this value to obtain a pulse rate in beats per minute (e.g. 10 pulses in the first 10 seconds would give an estimated BPM of 60 etc etc).
Does anybody have ides on how we could implement this? We have tried timed loops, elapsed time VI's and other things but nothing gives us what we need.
Thanks in advance for any help that is offered.
Jeshua Graham.

We are very new to Labview. We are taking a raw signal from our DAQ and then using VIs to filter and then trigger counts on rising edges. I have attached our vi file to this post for you to look at (I hope that is what you mean by code).
