How to estimate the size of Encore DVD finish product?

Hello again!
I have a large holiday project that will spread over several DVD. But I would at least arrange things is a logical way on a mix of single and dual layer disks.
I have put together two time lines that by my calculation were over the DVD Capacity but it seems that I had plenty of room to fit them in (hoops used a double layer for 5.6 gig!) just the same I'd like to know if I can rely on what I see .
I thought may be the encoded file is smaller than it's AVI source but no it the same (since a found out that you can encode in the background whilst working on the rest of your project.)
So are those files, once in the DVD, exactly the same size are they show in the project window? and do I need to account for the other extra things done in Encore ie Menu, menu animation, chapter etc.
What would be the right way to go about it.
I had two files adding to 8.47GB that should really go together but I feared I was too close to the D/L full capacity and started to search for answers
Thank you
Michel

I have to say my question has been answered even if I have problem to understand the answer! But thanx Mylleneum, my search got me to Ken Stone (final cut pro web site) who offers bit budgeting calculator on Excel ( and Mac too). All I need to do now is get my brain around it!

How to estimate the size of Encore final authoringoutput for a dvd or .iso image?

I animated a lot of pictures on timelines, but did not realised some are over 10 gigs!, meaning it won't even fit on a double layer dvd! Is it possible to reduce this size? I thought I'd run into this problem only with HD clips! I know I can always divide them but I did not want too many dvd.
Well I did not post this and went on authoring instead to see what would happen. I had a few 300mb files and two over 10 gb but after encoding (the lot), it was only 2.6 gb! What a relief, but how can I predict my output. I put the question to the forums in various forms for previous discussion but somehow it did not return anything relevant. ( I seem to have run into this problem b4 but can't recall the outcome!)

How to estimate the size of the database object, before creating it?

A typical question arise in mind.
As DBA's, we all known to determine the objects size from the database.
But before creating an object(s) in database or in a schema, we'll do an analysis on object(s) size in relation with data growth. i.e. the size we are estimating for the object(s) we are about to create.
for example,
Create table Test1 (Id Number, Name Varchar2(25), Gender Char(2), DOB Date, Salary Number(7));
A table is created.
Now what is the maximum size of a record for this table. i.e. maximum row length for one record. And How we are estimating this.
Please help me on this...

To estimate a table size before you create it you can do the following. For each variable character column try to figure out the average size of the data. Say on average the name will be 20 out of the allowed 25 characters. Add 7 for each date column. For numbers
p = number of digits in value
s = 0 for positive number and 1 for a negative number
round((( length((p) + s) / 2)) + 1
Now add one byte for the null indicator for each colmn plus 3 bytes for the row header. This is your row length.
Multiply by the expected number of rows to get a rough size which you need to adjust for the pctfree factor that will be used in each block and block overhead. With an 8K Oracle block size if you the default pctfree of 10 then you lose 892 bytes of storage. So 8192 - 819 - 108 estimated overhead = 7265 usable. Now divide 7265 by the average row length to get an estimate of the number of rows that will fit in this space and reduce the number of usable bytes by 2 bytes for each row. This is your new usable space.
So number of rows X estimate row length divided by usable block space in blocks. Convert to Megabytes or Gigabytes as desired.

How to estimate the size of query results

i have 3 tables
table_h : 10,000 records and 50columns
table_l : 13,000 records and 75 columns
table_ld : 25,000 records and 120 columns
i wrote a query to fetch data based on the 3 tables, and fetching 25,00 records.
ie ( 5 coulms from table_h, 12 coulmns from table_l and 120 columns from table_ld)
how i have to get the size of this query results.

What "size" are we talking about here? There are many different ways to interpret that-- it could be the size of the memory buffer that would be allocated on the client. It could be the size that would be required to store the result in a table in the database. It could be something else. But the answer may differ substantially.
Regardless, it's probably going to be something like (number of rows) * (sum of sizes of each column). But the size required for each column is a bit variable
- Client applications, in general, are going to allocate a memory buffer based on the maximum size of the column (LOB and LONG columns excepted). So if you declare a VARCHAR2(4000) but only store 1 byte in that column, most client applications are going to allocate 4k for that column for each row. It might be even worse than that-- if the client application happens to treat character data as Unicode, it probably uses the UTF-16 encoding in memory, which means allocating 2 bytes for every byte in the database (assuming the database character set supports single-byte characters primarily).
- The Oracle database, on the other hand, is not going to allocate more disk than is actually required to encode variable width data. So the 1 byte column only requires 1 byte of storage (plus a length). That's great for storage efficiency, but that makes computing the actual size a bit more complicated because you now need to know the actual size of data stored in each row (or at least the statistical distribution) rather than the table definition.

How to estimate the size of dump file

Hi,
I would like to export my full database.
My database size is nearly 50G.
How to know how much space the export dump will occupy?
Thanks,
Kavitha

SELECT SUM(AVG_ROW_LEN * NUM_ROWS) FROM DBA_TABLES;
you should then add an 10-20% to the result due to the definitions in the export file.

How to calculate the size of DB given the transaction and the INVT

Hi,
I need to know the size of a database
transactions/day-900
Total Items=12,200
We are preparing for a proposal .The above is the descriptions given by the client.
How to estimate the size of database We need to design a hardware configuration
Can anyone help me
Maran.

Any clue regarding the size of the row in the 900 transactions per day?
Will there be a single table updated per transaction or multiple tables?
Will the transaction be of type insert mostly?
If it is going to be insert only, then probably you can estimate the database size based on size of row * 900 transactions per day... You need to consider if there will be other tables affected via triggers.
Also, the size of the indexes defined on these tables will contribute to the database size.
No idea as to what do you mean by 12,200 items.

How to estimate the database size?

Hello. I have a database model in SQL data modeler. Also I've created it on the test server, but it is empty now.
Now I need to estimate the size of the database for understanding the requirements to production hardware.
For, example how many gigabytes I need in two years for my database. How can I do it?
Thank you in advance.

How to calculate the size of web forms in hyperion planning?

Hi Experts,

Can you pls explain how to calculate the size of web form in Smart view?
--- Srini.

Hi Srini,
First, here is what Oracle says:
Data Form Size Estimation:
To get a rough estimate of data form size, open the data form and select File > Save As from the browser. The size of the .HTML file is the portion of the data form that changes based on grid size. The .JS files remain the same size and can be cached, depending on browser settings. Information such as data form definitions, pages, and .gif files are not compressed when data forms are opened and sent to the Web browser.
I have not been able to find out using their method.
In any case, you can find out the size of grid by using below
1. Right click on the form grid and click "View source"
2. Save the source file as "Example.html"
3. Right click the saved file and click "Properties"
4. The Form size whould be same as that of file..
Let me know if it helps.
Cheers

How to initilize the size of rows in an jtable in run time

i am trying to retrieve data from a oracle database and display them in an jtable ,but i could not figure out how to increase the size of the table based on the number of records fetched in runtime. i also want to add checkbox for each enrty made in the jtable such that by cheching the box ,i could select the data and process it in futher frames. i use an netbean5 version for design.kindly give me giudence.

Best thing to do is write your own table model and a Cell Renderer for the check box.
Please follow the "How to use tables" tutorial.

For the life of me, I can't find out what size a photo is in terms of inches or how to change the size of the photo[s] so I can print them. I think I read somewhere to click edit, then click adjust. Nothing there about sizing.

For the life of me, I can't find out what size a photo is in terms of inches or how to change the size of the photo[s] so I can print them. I think I read somewhere to click edit, then click adjust. I don't see anything about re-sizing when I click the adjust tab: only saturation and tint levels. Thank you.

With respect to digital images, there really is no size in inches. The size is given as number of pixels horizontally and vertically. In iPhoto '09 you click the little "i" inthe lower right side of the window and it will display information related to the selected photo, including the pixel dimensions. I do not have iPhoto '11 installed so I don't know if it is the same there.
In some applications, such as preview, it has something additional called Dots per Inch (DPI) which you would think would allow you to convert the pixel dimensions to inches. It is not a real thing, though. The DPI is determined by how large or small you have chosen to print your photo and the capabilities of your printer.
There is also something called Aspect Ratio, which is usually expressed in inches x inches such as 6x9 but that doesn't mean the size on the screen or when printed is 6x9. It is the ratio of the pixel dimensions. When cropping your photos, you will have several standard aspect ratios to choose from plus any custom ones you create.
In iPhoto '09, after you choose Print, in the Print Setting window are the settings for the size you want the photo printed. You want to shoose a setting with the same aspect ratio of your photo. Otherwise, iPhoto will resize and/or crop your photo to fit the size you have chosen.

How to change the size of control´s prompt?

HI,
In order to change the size of a radio button... one way you may consider is to Customise the Radio Button.
Place a Radio Button (RB) on the FP of a VI, Right-Click the RB > Advanced > Customise...
Click the Mode Button (most Left button) for Edit Mode
Right-click the radio button (the round image) now, you will see a list of actions i.e. Copy to clipboard, import picture ...You will see Four images under the 'Picture Item', those are the images that you will need to replace.
Prepare Four Images of the similar but larger expected size
*** Copy the 1st new image to clipboard. Back to the Picture Item and select 1st image. Then, select Import Picture (to replace the existing image)
Repeat *** for all four images.
Once done, change the mode back to original. Save the *.ctl
You are now ready to use the customised radio button!
Quick sample attached (sorry for the poor images created )
