I cannot pick different transcode settings

Hi everyone.
For some reason i cannot pick different transcode settings. When I go to file>transcode>transcode settings everything is greyed out.
I have 1 timeline with DV .avi footage that I've imported from Premiere.
Anyone else have this problem or am I doing something wrong?

>So does this mean I can transcode different sections of the DVD at different transcode settings?
Absolutely you can. Every timeline can be encoded differently.
>And do I have to pick a transcode setting for each clip because I have 4 different clips or can I just set it so that it will transcode all 4 clips at the same settings?
Yes you can, and yes you can! It's your call.
If you leave everything at the default setting of "Automatic", Encore generally does a pretty fine job of getting the most quality possible from your AVI files.
However.
There may well be cases where you want to maximize the bitrate of, say, the main movie or main timeline at the expense of perhaps the bloopers reel. This is common practise.
There is a major GOTCHA waiting here though, and that is MPEG-2 encoding is an art form, and best results are not usually obtained from custom presets unless you really know & understand
i exactly
what you are doing. Hollywood will employ people to specifically sit there & encode video to MPEG-2 all day, every day. Applications like CCE-SP can even set different bitrates in a single clip by using timecode references to determine where things change if you have, say, one sequrence that requires scads & scads of bits (Explosions, rapid motion, high detail etc) and other sections that have large amounts of nothing much at all going on (Scenic panoramas, etc).
The point is, it can all go horribly wrong if you are not careful & I would highly recommend investing in some RW discs to avoid the inevitable coasters when learning all the settings & options (I know I wasted many discs until RW became available).
Lots & lots of luck, but in the main it is (usually) better to let Encore handle the most important timeline automatically, and tweak where it doesn't matter.

I have recently unlocked my iPhone 4. I got the comforation saying it was unlocked. For some reason I cannot access my network settings? Any suggestions. I am trying to use the phone on Net 10 network.

I recently unlocked my iphone 4. I am trying to use it on Net 10's network. However, i cannot access the network settings. I have the Net10 Sim already in it. A few notes listed below of what i have tried:
1.) I downloaded the iphone configuation utility. But cannot get the right settings to apply. (so if you have the correct ones i could use those)
2.) i have watched 1000 youtube videos and been on practically every page online and tried 1000 different versions of APN settings through the configuration
3.) I do not have another SIM card from another carrier to try.
Open to suggestions on how i can get the APN settings to change. Not worried about picture messaging or anything, but would like my internet to work. Calls and text work fine.

i have seen this option..problem being...i dont have access to WIFI i live in the middle of ten buck too! We cant even get internet out here i have to go a friend house to get internet. I was going to try that once i did get to town but was looking for other options here at home frist.

IPhone 4 cannot pick up a network properly after iOS 5 upgrade

After I upgraded to iOS 5, my iPhone 4 cannot pick up a network if it loses it. If I switch the phone to the airplane mode and then back, it finds something but I cannot neither hear anyone when I make a call nor send sms. I cannot properly cancel a call either, the phone app freezes once I press the cancel button.

iPhone 4S turned out to be a really bad apple..
I have, as many others, catastrophic reception on my new iPhone 4S. I might add that I also have an iPhone 4 and if I put the same MicroSim in this phone then the reception is flawless.
The problem is essentially the same as the one that many other experiences, five full bars, and (in my case) Tele2 3G. If someone tries to call me they are immediately sent to voicemail. If I try to make a call it fails, then the bars go down one by one until no service is shown, then the SIMsearches for reception and usually succeeds after about 1 minute the bars appear again. Sometimes I then can make a call but nine times out of tenthe procedure will just be repeated again.
I can of course manually get my bars back again via either reboot or by taking out and putting in the SIM again or by activating and then deactivating flight mode, this does not mean that I get actual reception, I just get the bars and operator name back and the phone seems to have reception. That is until I try to make a new call...
One can't turn off 3G in new iOS5, however, one can select operator manually. Carrier settings in iOS5 defautls to "Auto". If I turn off auto and select Tele2's 2G network nothing happens. I can turn off the "auto" but it is just says "Searching...". If I go back to settings and then back again the carrier settings are in "Auto" mode again.
I have made several re-installations, both from backup and as a new phone, turned on and off the PIN code, deactivated and activated Location services, made hard resets, etc. Even after the latest beta, which was released developers today, was installed and all procedures were done all over again with this OS the problem persists. It is simply impossible to either make or receive calls with my new iPhone 4S. It can do lots of fancy stuff but as a phone it is completely useless and I am compelled to to go back to using my iPhone 4 for now.
You would think that Apple would ensure that at least the telephone part in both hardware and software are operating properly before releasing them to consumers. It's called "iPhone" - not iPod, iPhone, iGame...iPhone is primarily a phone and customers buying it would at the very least require it to be able to make and recieve calls or maybe it's asking too much?
What is also very strange is that even if a lot of consumers complain about the above bug, not only in Sweden but all over the world, Apple does not mention this anywhere. Not on their support pages, not in their developer community, not to their dealers who certainly had a lot of support calls from unhappy customers who believe that it is an operator error.
Incredibly bad service by Apple to release a phone that can not be used as a phone and even worse to not quickly recognize this error and publish what's causing the error, that they're working on resolving it, and when it will be resolved.
I work myself as telephony manager at a company that uses just the iPhone and there are now quite a few new unhappy iPhone 4S, and where I take a lot of support concerning these bugs and have to get them temporary solutions until the bugs are fixed.
I use to commend both Apple and their products, but my conviction on Apple's excellence has been significantly tarnished. This is BAD Apple, hope you get your acts together a.s.a.p. cause both your phone and your service really ***** in this case.
Only way to get attention is to flood apple with info on this matter: fill in form at: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and let them know..

When I changed my Apple ID the ID did not change on my iCloud account. there appears to be no way to change the ID because I cannot get into account settings for iCloud

When I changed my Apple ID the ID did not change on my iCloud account. there appears to be no way to change the ID because I cannot get into account settings for iCloud

If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID and that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

Where Do I Find Encore's Automatic Transcode Settings?

I am putting the finishing touches on a 1.75hr, NTSC 4:3, 5.1 (AC3), 2 lead-in AVIs, one Main Menu + 3 Scene Selection Menus (non-animated) and one Play All Playlist Project and have done several +RW burns to check things out. Everything fits nicely on 4.3GB +RW.
Now my questions: everything has been set to DVD-5, and Encore to Automatic. I have looked for the Transcode settings, but cannot find them. I have read through the manual, F1 and Jeff Bellunes Encore Focal Guide, but cannot find what I am looking for now. The Audio and Video quality are good, but I do not mind going to a DVD-9 (DL), if I can increase either. Where do I look to find what Encore chose? If I want to do DL at max. quality and bitrate of 7, do I need to set the Transcode settings of each Video Asset? This project will only play on set-top DVD players, and most are fairly recent models, that all handle DL.
As is, it works OK, but I am wondering how to tell if I can go higher quality at some point, if DL is a viable option. I dont want to just waste a DL, if what I already have is as good as it gets.
I know that the answer has stared me in the eye on many occasions, but I just cannot find, what I think I am looking for.
TIA,
Hunt

Bill.
Try running a sort of "manual Bit-Budget" to see what the numbers say.
DVD5 = 37,600 Megabits.
DVD9 = 68,000 Megabits.
Ideally, we subtract an overhead of 4% to allow for variables.
This gives us the following values:
DVD5 = 36,000
DVD9 = 65,000.
Let us first subtract the Audio.
1.75 hours at 0.448Mb/sec = 2,882.4 Megabits
(0.448 (The data rate of DD 5.1) * 60 (seconds) *105 (minutes) )
This leaves us with (36000 - 3000) = 33,000 Megabits.
I do not know the running tome of the lead-in AVI clips, but let us assume 5 minutes in total.
This gives us 33,000 megabits to fit 110 Minutes of Video.
So.
110 minutes = 6,600 seconds.
33,000 / 6600 = 5 Megabits/second available for film.
This is under 6, so will be a VBR encode with an average bitrate of 5Mb/sec.
For DVD9.
Same Audio.
Same sums except the total megabits for video is larger, so we have
65,000 - 3000 = 62,000.
62,000 / 6600 = 9.3939 Mbits/second for the video is available.
Now, the highest possible allowed rate for DVD-Video - 10.08 for all combined.
For Audio & Video combined it is taken as 9.8 Mbits/second.
On a pressed, or replicated disc this is fine.
On written media we need to be more careful, so we set a peak video bitrate of 7Mb/sec - which although will not fill a DVD9, will present the highest possible compromise between playability on maximum number of players & highest quality.
You may experiment & go as high as 8Mb/sec, but I would generaly not recommend this to written media, DL especially.
There is a chance players will choke due to the higher error rate from the reduced reflectivity available with written media & DL media in particular.
It does give you almost a 50% increase in bitrate on your video.
Minimal is 40% gain in bits.
This will certainly make your film look better.
I think it is worthwhile going to DVD9.

Is there a way on how to create different Synch settings for iPhone / iPad

Okay,
My first time in this forum. I have an iPad and an iPhone. Everytime I sync my iPad and my iPhone with iTunes the sync settings are the same in both devices. So everytime I sync devices Apps that I have in my iPad show up in iPhone and vice versa. Is there a way to create different sync settings for my iphone and iPad?. Basically I do not want Apps from my iPads to be synched with iPhone and Apps that I have in my iPhone to be synched with my iPad. It is kind of annoying that everytime I synch I have to remove apps from my iPhone.
Can I also do the same for playlists?

Each device has its own set of sync preferences. What you may be seeing is the result of the Automatically sync new Apps option listed underneath the list of apps on the Apps tab. Untick this for each device next time you sync and then purchases made on one device won't automatically turn up on the other. You shoud also make sure automatic downloads are disabled in Settings > iTunes & App Stores.

Project Setting - Transcoding Settings question

Hello all,
I am a bit confused on the Encore settings.    Should I leave them as the default or should I tweak them??    The DVD tests that I have made seem to have a little bit of interlacing during playback in the Sony player that I am using via HDMI to the Sony TV.
When I check "project settings" in Encore it shows: Transcode Settings:   Codec MPEG 2, 720x480 Frame Rate 29.97 (my project is 23.976fps)
                                                                                                              Fields : Lower Field First
When I check "edit quality presets"   It shows Export Settings - MPEG2 Blu-ray,    1280x720p 23.976
                                                                    Summary:

                                                                     Source           1920 x 1080 23.98, Lower

                                                                                                     1280x720, 23.976

I guess It just seem like there is conflicing info with the Fields and with the Frame Rate.
Is this the way it is supposed to be or do I need to customize the settings?
Thank you in advance for being nice.

Stan,
Ok..just to clarify. Sorry for the long delay.
   When I start encore and I get the "new project" window, I select DVD and
under the transcode settings, it shows Fields: Lower Field First.
Is this ok?   I guess I would think it would be None or Progressive
Thanks
Ted

In iPhoto '11 I cannot change the book settings. For example, adding page numbers. There is no "option" button as is suggested by the help item.

In iPhoto '11 I cannot change the book settings. For example, adding page numbers. There is no "option" button as is suggested by the help item. How can I change to book settings?

The "options" button should appear at the bottom of the iPhoto window, when you view your book, then the Book Settings Button should be available and you can activate page numbers.
But remember, that the settings available will depend on the Book Theme you selected. The above shows the settings for one of the "Travel" themes. In a Picture Book Theme, e.g. you cannot add page numbers.
What theme and book size are you using?

Transcode settings in Encore CS3 for 24 frames?

Ok so I exported my 3 short films (all 23.976) and then dropped them into encore. Used the "automatic" transcode settings, and burned a DVD. Looks like crap. I found I can make my own preset for transcoding, so what settings should I be using to make the video not jittery and blurry.I tried putting the transcode setting to 23.976, and it sped the video up, and left the audio at the same speed....which doesn`t make sense. My source video is 23.976....so thats not the right way to do it. How do I make a 24 frames DVD?

How do I make a 24 frames DVD?
My own experience with this is that you must create a 24p MPEG2 file with appropriate pulldown flags for use in Encore. Any other option and Encore will mess up the pulldown.

Cant make a 720p Blu ray as all transcode settings come out as 1080

HI
Im trying to make a 1280 720 59i blu ray disk. My input is 29.97 progressive 1080p from Premiere.
Whatever settings I use my encoded BD-Folder build always appears to be in 1920 1080.
I choose my default transcode settings after dynamic link from premiere as 1280 720 59i.
If I import the folder into premiere it says it is 1920 1080 progressive, even though it cant be progressive but I wish it was!
When I watch the outputted folder in VLC it always says it is 1920 1080 in media info and plays at that size.
Even when i import a 1080p clip to a 1280 720 timeline in encore my output is still 1080i.
What Im I doing wrong?
joe

Are you using Encore CS4 or CS5?
If you are using CS5 then you need to do the below steps for this -
1. Right click on your asset in Encore
2. Click on Transcode Settings
3. Select Dimension as 1280x720
4. Select Frame Rate as 59.94
5. Click on ok button
Build your project and the output will be 1280x720 with framerate 59.94.
In CS5 Encore generates the output, based on asset.

Having Multiple Adobe PDF printers with different output settings

Hello,
My company is using Adobe Acrobat X and XI on Win 7 Pro, and we would like to create 2 separate Adobe PDF printers that have 2 different output settings. So I installed a second Adobe PDF printer using the same Adobe Converter Driver as was used to install the first one. Then, I went into Devices and Printers and I edited the printing preferences of one Adobe PDF printer, but what I found was when I changed the preferences of one printer, it automatically changes the other one as well. Is there a way around this?

Thanks for pointing me to the iTunes Folder Watch program. It looks like this will solve my immediate needs. It's a little clunky in spots, but does handle adding new files very well. And it only cost about $10 to get the fully functioning version with the automatic monitoring in the background.
I copied the iTunes library files to each account, setup a watch folder that points to the location of the iTunes library content and all the music syncs up perfectly without duplicates. I have yet to test the applications, but music, movies, TV Shows, audiobooks, and podcasts all work fine.
If anyone else is considering this product, just make sure you double check your file location in the iTune settings to make sure each account is pointing to the same location and is organizing the content in the same way or else the individual account libraries will fight against each other to organize all the content where it is configured to put it. Copying the library files isn't enough since some of these settings are in the Windows Registry.
I made this mistake at first. I had all the accounts pointing to the same folder, but one of them (the original) had the "Upgrade to iTunes Media Organization" turned on which categorizes all content into folders based on type such as music, movies, podcasts, etc. Since the others were organizing just based on artist and album this caused the accounts to try to reorganize the files when Folder Watcher would tell it there were new files to manage.
All in all, this solves most of my concerns, but I'm still surprised Apple hasen't added this natively into the iTunes product. Especially when this guy figured out how to write the software to do it and is only charging about 10 bucks to do it. Well I hope this guy makes a million bucks off his little product bacause he surely deserves it!
