I really need some serious help with Encore import

Ok I will start off by saying Iam a complete and total newbie to this field. I have produced a few small projects in premier and encore but nothing advanced until now.
Here is what I have done
I am using CS04 Suite
I have built a Premier Project using AVCHD footage that is 2.5 hours long (roughly)
I exported the final project using AME to H.264 so that I could import it into Encore
The files is 16 GB in size
I am trying to import the file as an asset into encore to build the menus, I need to create 2 images in encore, one DVD image and 1 Blueray Image. I am trying to do the DVD image at this time. Encore allows the import, shows the video in the asset list but my hard drive has been running like a fool for 3 hours now, I cant seem to drag it to the timeline, if I right click I cant even access the Transcode setting of the file, my system is very sluggish. It almost seems like it is pre-transcoding but I see no progress bars anywhere.
Is Encore simply still importing the file?
Am I doing this correctly?
Should I break up the video into smaller files? Will I need to create multiple Premier Projectes to do so?
If I wait long enough will it be ok?
I have 6 days to finish this project... I really need your help !!!

An external ESATA would do just fine.
Keep all of your media on the external drive. Only use the internal drive for Windows and your applications.
Your quad-core and 4 GB of RAM is OK. Not great (I'd get 2 GB of RAM per core), but OK.

I need some serious help with MPEG Streamclip and iMovie 11

Hello, everyone!
I hope that some kind soul here is able to help me. My sister-in-law asked me if I could help her re-edit a video that they made of a conference she gave because she didn't like the way some parts were edited. I oh-so-kindly (and perhaps stupidly) offered to help her out!
A little background: even though I studied audiovisual communications in college, I leaned (a LOT) towards the audio production part of it and, lately, photography, too. That means that I'm not very good at the whole creating-a-movie-in-iMovie thing, even though I know it's supposed to be easy.
So, here goes: I have a DVD from her which has the typical TS files for audio and video. I downloaded a program called MPEG Streamclip and then it said I needed to buy the QuickTime MPEG-2 Playback Component so that I could rip the DVD my sister-in-law gave me. I bought the component.
I've converted, done small, 1-minute tests, of the DVD with MPEG Streamclip to DV and also to MP4 (just in case). I do it, then import them to iMovie 11. I don't edit anything at all, just a test to see how it looks, so I immediately send the project to iDVD to see how it looks. It DOES NOT look good.
Compared to the DVD she gave me, which looks all smooth (picture-wise), mine has a certain amount (NOT HUGE) of pixelation. I can tell especially because there are some slides that were added to her project, so I can see the pixelated parts around the edges of the letters.
The DVD she gave me does NOT look HD. In fact, it looks SD (4:3), so I don't believe it's that.
If anybody here knows about this, what am I doing wrong? Am I not ripping it correctly using MPEG Streamclip? Am I not making the iMovie 11 project right? Am I burning in the "wrong way"?
If it's the MPEG Streamclip ripping that I'm doing wrong, what are the settings I should be using? What format should I be using so that it is VERY iMovie-friendly?
I want the final video that I would edit to look exactly as the one she gave me. That IS possible, right?
For extra information, if needed, I am running a MacBook Pro, 13", i7 with 4 GB of RAM and am running OS 10.6.6. I've been a Mac user since the OS 9 days.
Thanks in advance for anyone who helps me out.
Serge

Ok. Got it!!!
Z, thanks a lot!! Now things don't look pixelated and my test burn looks exactly like the dvd my sister-in-law gave me... except for ONE THING:
There are these graphics done in I-don't-know-what program with a cube transition. They look like when you do 3D cube transitions in virtual desktop, you know?
Anyway, HER dvd looks completely smooth when you see these transitions but MY dvd looks... well, not right. It looks a bit like the screen or the letters "tremble" or shake a bit. I hope you can understand what I'm saying.
I followed your advice to the letter and everything is perfect with the exception of those transitions (because after the transition passes and you see the slide with the writing, it looks completely smooth).
Do you know of something that I can do to help with this problem?
Thanks again!
Serge

Hi,
Firstly please try to deal with "can't mount iPod" issue

Need some URGENT help with 3 DVD mastering issues PLEASE! :

Hi there,
Firstly, I am running DVD SP 3.0.2 on Mac OS 10.4.7 on a G5 Dual 2 GHz 3Gb Ram plenty of HD space...
I am creating a DVD with: An intro sequence, a main menu, 4 sub menus, and 4 sections with around 12 chapters each.
I am having some big problems, and a pretty stuck. I will lest them separately below, numbered. If you are able to help, please refer clearly to which number you are helping with. Any help is MUCH appreciated! Many thanks!!
1. Each of the 5 menus (1 main, 4 sub) have a background video, and a separate audio track. I added the background videos by simply dragging them to the assests panel, then from there onto the menu editor window. They are created in FCP and are properly encoded. However, when I click the motion button, or use the simulator, the videos do not show up. The music plays, but all i see is plain black.
What is going on?!?!?!
2. I am really struggling with rollover buttons. I have custom created buttons, and I wand them to have a soft red glow around them when hovered over. HOW ON EARTH DO I ACTUALLY DO THIS??
The buttons are in photoshop so can be exported with/without background/glow in any format.
3. Is it possible, once I have got the above rollover working, to have an image to the right hand side of my buttons which changes with the the button rollover. i.e. hover over button 1, see image 1. hover over button 2, image changes to image 2.
PLEASE PLEASE give any help you can, I have a deadline coming up and am quite stumped. Thanks again!!

I am still having problems regarding issue Number 1. PLEASE ANYONE HELP?!
Sorry, I'm not sure about the motion menus. I avoid those whenever possible. But you might click on the menu in the storyline tab (whatever it's called -- the hierarchical view with the disc, tracks, slideshows, etc.) and look at the properties and see if there's anything you have to enable specifically for motion. And be sure the motion button is on on the main display/preview area, but it sounds like you already know how that works.
For your information, here is a screen grab of the menu I am trying to create:
http://www.redhavoc.co.uk/stuff/menu.jpg
I think it is obvious that when a button is hovered over, I want it to glow red, and the image to the right will change to match the respective button.
IS THIS GOING TO BE POSSIBLE????
Yes.
First, your menus have to be layered menus. Unfortunately, there's no way to convert non-layered menus to layered menus, so if you already have non-layered, you'll have to just delete them and create new layered menus. The button (and menu item) to create a layered menu should be right by the normal new-menu item.
Next, the graphical work is all in Photoshop.
Side tip: You may already know this, but I found it's best to use 640x480 for the Photoshop document. When I do text and leave it as a text object in the Photoshop file, it resizes poorly in DVDSP. So this ends up being another 720x480 vs. 640x480 square/rectangular pixel conversion thing. DVDSP plays in the 640x480 world, at least as far as the designer can see. So I keep my images at 640x480, and it doesn't have to resize, and everything looks right.
Moving on... Set up your basic background, the part that won't change (or will have other things covering it, like for your square image).
Then put in all the buttons and images you'll be using, each part in a separate layer. This could have fifteen buttons (you have five buttons, and there can be three versions for each -- inactive, selected, and activated versions) and five or six square images (you said one for each button, and you might want a blank default if, say, you want to add a "back" button on the menu and want some blank or default image for the square when they're on the "back" button).
Sometimes people don't bother with a separate "active" button state, but you usually want some visual feedback that they clicked the button. Also, I usually just build the default (unselected) button into the background; that's less hassle later on, and it will just draw the selected or activated buttons over that when the user is on that button.
Line up all your buttons and images. All the square images lined up perfectly on top of each other, all the buttons in the right places (so you'll have three buttons stacked on top of each other in each spot). Give each layer a short but quickly recognizable name, and line them up in a consistent order. (button1-default, button1-selected, button1-active, button1-squarepicture, then button2-default, ... etc.) Photoshop and DVDSP don't care, but it makes it easier for you later.
Note that earlier versions of DVDSP won't show Photoshop layer effects. (They handle layers, just not the effects, like inner glow, outer bezel, etc.) I don't remember when they changed this, but I think it was version 4.something. So if you're using that method to make your buttons glow, you may have to flatten each selected or active button layer, and you may even need to create a dummy blank layer underneath it first to give it something to flatten onto.
Save the file as a standard Photoshop file (.psd). Drag the file onto your DVDSP layered menu and set it as the background.
Now, in DVDSP, create all your buttons. Just drag boxes over/around the button pictures you have. Feel free to make them extra-big; users won't see the actual area you've selected, and bigger areas makes it easier for people to hit them if they're using a mouse on a computer to watch the DVD. You can point the buttons to their targets now if you want, and set the end jumps on the tracks if you want. (I tend to set the end jumps on the tracks so they automatically select the button for the next track.)
Now's the fun part, since it will actually hook everything up and should be easy if your naming layer order were consistent. Click on the layered menu (in that hierarchical view) and look at the properties window. (Sorry I can't remember the technical names for all these windows; I'm doing this all from memory. So feel free to ask more questions if you can't find what I'm talking about.) One of the properties tabs should have a grid of checkboxes with a list of your layers. Make sure the background is checked for all of the states. Then check the layers you want to show for each button state, as well as the corresponding square image to show for each.
Again, I'm doing this from memory, and I can't remember exactly how things are listed in that grid. But I remember it keeps your layers in the same order you put them in the Photoshop file and shows you those names, so it should make it easy to go down the list and check the right boxes.
And another side tip: You can update the Photoshop file, but once you've put it in DVDSP, if you change the layer order, it will screw up the check boxes you checked. It always shows you the layer names correctly, but it keeps the checkboxes in DVDSP simply assigned to the layer number, so the fifth layer will keep the same checkboxes even if you juggle them so some other layer is now the fifth layer. So if you do juggle the layers in Photoshop, go back and fix the checkbox list in DVDSP.
I put a sample Photoshop file based on yours in
http://dan.black.org/layered-menu-sample.psd
It's quick and dirty, but shows the layer layout, and you should be able to drop it on DVDSP to play with. (I also won't leave it there forever, maybe a few weeks, so anybody reading this in a month or more probably will get a 404 for that url.)
Again, doing this from memory, so feel free to ask if anything doesn't work or doesn't make sense.

Need some quick help with redoing a website

Hi, I did my website done in iWeb in 2008, published it, and have it hosted by GoDaddy. I want to take it offline for now and design a new 'under construction' site, but there is a chance that I might want to still go back to the original version.
I see the current 'Domain' in Home Folder>Library>Application Support>iWeb.
Can I just redo my site (still working in pre-2008 iWeb), publish it, and if I need to, use the old 'Domain' to revert to my current website?
If yes, how do I do that....and, if 'no', what should I do?
Thanks!

Hi and thanks. To reply....
I published the website in iWeb and it is on my MobleMe. It was done in iWeb v 1.1.2, and I have not upgraded iLife on the computer that I designed the website on, as I feared losing some/all of it in an upgrade.
I do, however, pay GoDaddy for my corporate URL AND hosting....which I suspect is the forwarding and not 'hosting' per se....but on my Hosting account on GoDaddy it does say 'Shared Hosting'.
I do not want to 'overwrite' my current site just yet, as I am uncertain about the next one's content or the time to do it the way I envision it. What I want to do is SAVE my current site in case I want it back and, in the meantime, put up a page that says Under Construction. Can you help with that?
Much appreciated

I need some basic help with Email setup

Hello, I ve just been connected to infinity and I m trying to setup a few email addresses but the BT yahoo system is confusing me.
I managed to create a new email (sub account) for my wife but I m struggling with finding a way to have a couple more for myself. Do I really need to make a sub account for each email?
The default email has my name and surname in it which is not something I generally use for that purpose, I would only use that one for close friends and family, I would like to setup another one for general use and one for when there is a likelyhood it ll get a lot of spam.
The way to add extra emails is usually very simple (with previous isps) , login to "manage my account" and choose username and password then enter the details in outlook express.
With BT I m having to deal with the Yahoo thingy, which does a lot of more than just emails but at this time I have interest in it at all.
1 - I would simply like to setup a few emails to use with outlook express, what is the best way to achieve that ?
2 - The yahoo email seems to be part of a network like facebook, as I don t intend to use that side of it I would prefer not to have my personal details associated with a profile that I do not need . It seems to be for public viewing by default.
Can I set up and use my emails without having an online profile for yahoo?
How do i keep my details offline (not publicly viewable in yahoo)?
thanks.

yes!
you get one prime email address. the one you agreed to and the one to set up your bt mail, it was in letter confirming bt set up. (order ref)
for more for yourself, or anybody else, its got to be sub. up to ten for INF2
I have set up 4 sub accounts with different names, etc. but use the same password for all 5 .
I then had them set up with outlook express, there is a bt prog to do this. look on site.
Then I use incredimail as my final mail client, this also has a prog to set up from outlook express.
so all my mail to and from me ends up in incredimail with my 4 sub accounts, using one as my prime.
my bt prime I do not use, as it is my full name.
so far so good, just a bit slow finding its way, like you my previous ISP (tesco) was less complicated, but slow copper wire.
good luck

In the end we will all be star dust.
Then start all over again.

I am in need of some serious help with my camera

I have a new computer and of course I was trying to put my camera (Live! Cam Video IM (VF0220) on this computer.
I do not have the disk for this camera so I went on the site and tried downloading the driver along with the application for the camera.
None of these worked whatsoever.
I was up very late last night dealing with trying to find the right download for this camera to set it up on my computer and none of the drivers or applications that is on the site work for my computer.
Whenever I try and hook up my camera to the computer, it goes thru that found new hardware wizard thing and of course since I do not have the disk, I can't do this.
I have downloaded the drives and applications, restarted and restarted my computer several times over and NOTHING has gone right with showing that the thing is set up on my computer.
Now mind you, it shows in my computer that it is on there, but for some stupid reason, it doesnt want to show that my camera is on cause of course its not wanting or letting it download the camera on here.
Can someone tell me where can I find the RIGHT DOWNLOAD to hook up my camera so that I can stop looking on other site for the right one?
I mean cmon, it should have the right one for the camera that I have, but you guys dont seem to have it.
And please do not tell me to go to that support thing cause I have done that and it aint working whatsoever.
I have never had a problem with this company whatsoever with your cams much less your microphones cause they have all done me pretty good so far, but this is unbelievable how this is making me get so aggravated today.
All I need is one simple link to get the right download for my camera.
If anyone has this camera and does have the download to install it onto your computer, please feel free to share it with someone whose going thru a time with trying to get it on theirs.
Thanks,
PMYODB1

ok well dont uncheck the song just delete the song you dont want from your play list and the song your brother dosent want from his playlist so that if u delete it from the playlist you'll still have the song in the libary but the only time u uncheck and check the songs is when your updating songs onto your ipod and so and so....but still...just make sure for saftey you just delete the songs you dont like from your playlist not from the libabry and checking and unchecking is just temeraly distortion so make u only use it when ur updateing new songs on your ipod or iphone etc.

IPod not recognized, therefore I can't factory reset...Need some serious help.

I received an iPod that used to belong to someone who used it on a Mac. I can tell this because under "About" it lists the serial number, which indicates it was used on a Mac and not Windows. Because of that, it can't sync with a windows computer. I need to factory reset it so it will be optimized for a Windows computer. However, when I connect it, neither the computer or itunes recognizes it. It doesn't recognize it in disk mode either. I get the message "USB Device Not Recognized". I searched for newer drivers and it says that my "Unknown Device" has the most up to date drivers. I've also reset the ipod, and uninstalled & reinstalled itunes. The ipod will charge with the usb cord connected to the wall, but not while connected to the computer with that same cord. By the way, the ipod works fine, it has music already on it and will play the music just fine.
I've followed the 5 "R" steps to try and fix my ipod, ending at the last step which is restore. I can't restore my ipod, because I can't get it to connect to itunes.
Please help me!

Hello cierra.estelle,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your new iPod nano. You have taken some really good steps to troubleshoot this issue. I found an article with a few additional steps you can take when your iPod is not recognized by iTunes or your computer.
I recommend continuing with the following article (you can skip the steps you have already taken). Additionally, if you get to the step to uninstall iTunes, it is important to remove all the listed components in that step:

I'm new to java and I need some quick help with NetBeans.

Hi. To whomever can help here's the problem. I've been trying to install netbeans ide 5.0 on my computer for a while now and i can't seem to find out what is wrong. I'm in a java programming course and i need the J2SE Developement Kit 5.0 Update 7 and NetBeans IDE 5.0 Installer on my comp. Whenever i go to install it, it can't automatically create a directory and has erroe null in place of it. Whenever i made a new directory for it a page would come up telling me all of the errors during the installation which are null. Since i have administrator privelages and plenty of free space on my hardrive.

Hi,
I want to suggest you that
1.please check if any prerequisite is require before installing the NetBeans IDE,i hope there is nothing like that except proper jdk on your machine.
2.if you already having JDK on your machine check for the compatibility of that jdk version with the required NetBeans IDE version.
3.follow the steps provided to install the NetBeans IDE 5.0 for that refer the below link
http://www.netbeans.org/community/releases/50/install.html
hope you will get rid of the problem .....

Offtopic, but i really need some urgent help

Hey guys,
I just noticed that ive got a really wasted virus :/
Its renaming all my files and folders to what lookes like Japanese characters, but because i havnt got a interpreter, they appear as those little block thingies. After its done renaming the folder, it declares it as empty, and when you try to open it, it says something about : "#Folder Path# is not accesible. The file or directory is corrupt and unreachable." Ive been watching it slowly spread, trying to scan and disinfect it with my Anti-Virus (F-Secure), but it wants nothing of the sort, coz it sees the folder as empty and skips the search. Ive already lost WEEKS of dowloaded material (Mostly Anime and music, but irresplacable none the less)
already, and im about to freak out. Any help would be very very very much appreciated. If you could direct me to a Anti-Virus that you think will solve the problem, that would be really cool. This is really important, im only guessing, but its prolly only a matter of time before it starts attacking my windows folder, then im gonne be in really deep trouble :(

My Computer is gonne be dead and buried by the time
this site loads, That is the problem with downloading stuff on a Windows box without having a virus checker or a firewall.
and this isnt a cheap computer
either :/ Which will be cheaper? A virus checker or re-installing your oprerating system and downloading all your files again.
>
What do you think about removing the infected/useless
harddrive? Think that might slow the infection down?
Im open to all sorts of suggestions, as long as the
are fast acting :/I think you are stuffed!

Need some serious help asap please

My boyfriend got drunk last night and changed his passcode on his iphone 3GS. Goes to use it this morning and couldn't remember it whatsoever, tried so many times that his phone is now disabled and asks to be connected to itunes.
Tried syncing it but I must've not done something right. The phone IS his and we do own the first and only computer the phone has been plugged in to.
So my questions are as follows:
How do I find the serial number on itunes?
How do I restore his passcode without having to completely restore his phone?
We are both still very new to the iphone thing and a little overwhelmed. I need to get this fixed asap as my boyfriend needs his phone for work. I might add that I'm still quite unfamiliar with itunes so be gentle lol
Any help will be greatly appreciated

How do I find the serial number on itunes?
Under the Summary tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
How do I restore his passcode without having to completely restore his phone?
Not possible. If this were possible, there wouldn't be any reason to have a Passcode Lock feature to prevent unauthorized access to the iPhone in the first place. The iPhone must be restored with iTunes. It can be restored from the iPhone's backup since the Passcode Lock is not included with the iPhone's backup.

Tap your iPod firmly on either side several times with your hand. This may work to tap your iPod's hard drive back into its correct place. It actually has worked for a lot of people, so it isn't just a joke!
I hope this solves your problem!

Ok I need some serious help..PLEASE HELP ME

Hey here is my issue i need to do the following things and i do not know how or can't figure it out by reading the manual...
1. I need to convert .m4p AAC files into MP3's and i cant find anything to do it with
2. I need to change the bpm of the song without changing the pitch, basically holding the master tempo while increasing the speed
3. I have a midi controller with 8 assignable knobs and i cant figure out how to assign anything to any of them
Thank you for your help
Alex Eljaiek

Alex,
Isn't the m4p the "protected" file from iTunes. The only way I know of to switch the m4p to mp3 is to burn the file to an audio cd (in iTunes), and then rip the track off of the CD as and mp3.
You'll want to check your preferences in iTunes to verify the burning and ripping settings are correct.
Hope this is helpful,
Mitch

Unable to switch on my phone need some serious help

everyone, i got some issues while switching on my phone. Today my phone has automatically downloaded system update, after completion i installed that update and few minutes after installation, phone restarted and shows this massage "The software update failed. Make sure that your phone is connected to computer and try again."I connected my phone to the computer but still shows the same message and shuts down automatically and im not using any custom recovery.what should i do now??? Please help me with that..

Try performing a system repair using PC Companion as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data
Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP
