Ideal Settings For HD Playback Of Timeline?

Any suggestions for high def playback of the timeline?  Seems a bit choppy.  The timeline exports the files just fine however. ??  I have Win 7 64 bit i7 980X@ 3.33 6 core 12 GB RAM 1600DDR Radeon 5850 GPU. Is there a BIOS setting that could be tweaked?  I had a serious problem with my RAM, but now it is fixed.  Frustrating that I have a top notch system with lousy playback.  Also, is there a way to cut and paste to this forum? Thanks!

  • VMware Fusion Ideal Settings for Best performance

    Can someone please help with the ideal settings for VMware Fusion on mac for best performance.
    My Machine Details
    MacBook Pro (13-inch Late 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)
    Processor : 2.8 GHz Intel Core
    Memory : 16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    Storage : 750 GB SATA Disk
    Graphics : Intel HD Graphics 3000 512 MB
    Am using VMware Fusion Version 4.1.2
    At Present the resources I have allocated for VMFusion are
    Processor      : 1 Core
    Memory         : 4 GB
    Thanks
    Brij

    VMware Fusion doesn't slow down the Mac just because having it installed. You have 16 GB of memory in the computer and you assigned 4 GB for the virtual machine you have, so you shouldn't have any memory problem. Also, your Mac has got a great processor that run virtual machines without any problem.
    If you feel your Mac slow while running the virtual machine, just reduce the amount of memory assigned to the virtual machine, depending on the operating system you have in the virtual machine. For example, I recommend 2 GB or more for Windows 7, and you can run Linux virtualized assigning only 512 MB of memory

  • Best flash movie settings for HDTV playback

    I am creating a flash video for a trade show for my company
    for the first time, and we are bringing a large HDTV to play to
    movie. Do I need specific settings in flash in order for it play
    corectly on a large HDTV? I have never before created a DVD using
    Flash, Adobe Premiere and Encore either. What are the best file
    size an settings for optimun playback?

    Getting your stuff out on TV or DVD or whatever means you need to experiment and see what works best.
    Make misstakes, encounter unforseen issues, these are the best learning school.
    Oh and get yourselve some dvd-rw´s for testing.
    For the HDwmv 720P wil do just fine (i am not sure Pro2 can do this). I use them to. I have my pc hooked up to a HD projector via hdmi. Looks great on a big screen.

  • What are the ideal settings for my TC with Shaw's Cisco DPC3825 router/modem

    My old 2nd Gen Time Capsule crapped out and now I am about to set up my new 2TB TC.  My provider is Shaw Communications and they have upgraded me to their Broadband 100 Mbps service.  This came with a new modem/router combo made by Cisco and is model DPC3825.  Before I start plugging things in I'd like to know what are the ideal settings such that I gain the most of the BB100 service.  Should I be setting the Cisco modem/router to Bridge mode or the TC?  Should I have Shaw disable anything?  Any insight is greatly appreciated.

    Unless you specifically need to have the TC perform as the main router for your network, life will be a lot easier if you configure the TC to operate in Bridge Mode.
    Whether the Cisco modem/router or gateway can possibly be configured to act as a simple bridge mode modem is one thing to consider.
    Whether Shaw would support you in the event of any connection difficulties with the modem/router configured this way is another.
    Since Shaw is your provider, it might make sense to talk with them about best practice as far as configuring the DPC3825.
    Once you have that information in hand, you will then have the answer on how best to configure the TC.....which will very likely be in Bridge Mode.

  • Compression settings for G3 playback

    Greetings, I'm using EyeTV export to convert recorded clips to QT movies. Although I'm working on a G4, the QT movies will be played on a G3 iMac. I have discoverd altready that the default compression settings create a movie that the G3 can't handle (it jumps frame by frame). It is suggested that I try other compression settings. I would like to, but I don't know anything about this subject.
    For reference, The default settings for export to QT movie:
    type MPEG 4 video (there are a lot of other options)
    frame rate 29.97 fps
    compressor quality high (on a slider from least to best)
    data rate automatic (it can be restricted to some kbits/sec instead)
    Please can someone suggest which settings I might change and in which direction to achieve G3 playback. Video quality does not need to be great, I accept that there is a tradeoff.

    Thanks. After some experimenting, I found that export as Quicktime movie as H 263 seems to play on the G3 with good video quality.

  • Best settings for Flash playback on Website

    Hello,
    1. Whats the Best Settings for Quality and Fast loading for Video playback of Flash Video??
    Website features a :30 Second TV Commercial, takes too long for website to load. any Tips to get it to load FAST but have GREAT Looking Video
    Quality.
    Thanks a lot
    Joe

    Best thing is to use the Adobe Media Encoder bundled with Flash CS4. Play with the settings until you get the optimum settings and the import the .flv to the stage. Then publish the movie "best".

  • Ideal settings for warm, high quality voice over?

    Are there ideal settings to get a high quality voice over? I am using a good Samson mic, but need guidance with the settings? I don't suppose there is an existing preset that could be applied for this--I imagine I'll have to create one.
    Thanks.

    There are plent of presets that will add ambience to the voice over, but to make it "warm" and not sound "recorded" isn't easy if at all possible using the presets in SB.
    The best solution is to make sure the voice track is recorded at as close to "studio quality" as you can get before adding it.
    "Egg crate" foam, carpet, fiberglass, mic baffling, all help to minimize background noise and that slight echo that can turn what would otherwise be a really good voice over into an amateurish sounding affair.

  • Ideal Settings for 7 hour Battery Life

    I just wanted to know what the ideal settings would be for a 15" MBP Mid 2009 Unibody to reach the 7 hour battery life as advertised.

    Apple states that the Better Battery Life setting was used, and +"The wireless productivity test measures battery life by wirelessly browsing various websites and editing text in a word processing document with display brightness set to 50%."+
    You can bet that the 'various websites' chosen were simple ones (no Flash animation, etc.). Also, 'editing text in a word processing document' with the autosave feature turned off will allow the HDD to spin down, saving power.
    So, what you'd need to do to get 7 hours on battery is set the brightness to 50% or less and do only +really simple+ tasks on your MBP. IMO, the 7 hr estimate isn't 'real world', it's marketing.

  • Ideal settings for mouse

    Hi,
    Using any of the mouse curve fix utilities (USBOverdrive, Steermouse, Mousezoom etc..) has anybody found ideal settings yet? Mine still leave me missing the naturalness of windows.
    Thanks

    Hello Ryan, and thank you for your interest. Please be sure to review my original post when reading what follows.
    My desk was made to fit the tiny room it is in before I bought my Mac. Because the desk is small, is an odd shape and has a knee hole in a particular place, I have little option but to set up my Mac as I have.
    The result is I have insufficient room for a mouse mat without it impinging on space needed to maintain a stable base for the keyboard. And a supersize mat is not available.
    So I don't use a mouse mat ... but you should note that that has been the case for the past two years without incident until recently. I use a desk top which is made of a plastic laminate, light golden oak in colour; this allows me to manoevre the mouse around the various obstacles more easily.
    The mouse is connected to my Mac (not the keyboard) and has to be moved by my right hand. My left hand rests on my knee.
    It may seem a touch cramped but I managed fine until recently and even now the problem is erratic rather than persistent.
    One thought, I have been perilously short of memory of late and am about to upgrade from 1GB to 3GB. Could this make any difference?

  • Optimum settings for video playback on 5800 Xpress...

    Hello.
    I want to find out what are the best setting to use for converting videos for watching on the 5800.
    I will be converting from EyeTV files using a Mac. I can use either the ‘Export’ function from EyeTV or VisualHub – both have a huge range of formats and settings.
    I could spend considerable time playing around with settings, but thought it easier to ask, as someone might of done this before.
    The fact that I am using a Mac is unimportant - what I need are the optimum settings for: format, bitrate etc?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    i have h264/aac working in either a mp4 or a 3gp container, settings are 352x198 1000kbps ABR video 128kbps audio, baseline level 1.0, no b-frames, no cabac are the main things to remember. this is the largest size 16/9 aspect h264 the 5800 will play,  this gives really good watchable video though and even dropping the video bitrate to 600kbps ABR still gives watchable video. i have attached a mediainfo output file for you to get the full settings i use, hopefully someone will find good use for this

  • Suitable share settings for movie playback

    I have a MacBook Pro with dual core I7 2.66 Ghz processor and 8 GB of Ram. Operating system is OSX 10.7.5.
    I processed my movie project using Final Cut Pro X. The project consists of a narrator with other media connected to the main storyline.
    I had no problem processing the project. I imported optimal media and created proxy media for playback. Playback using the timeline browser works fine.
    I just shared my movie using the default “Master File setting.” Playback using VLC player is halting for both video and audio, even when all other applications are closed.  
    The video is to be shown at a family gathering a few days from now.
    1. I shot the video with a digital camera Panasonic DMZ F150 using the built in-microphone. FCPX decided it was a stereo project and I went along, but I am not sure that much is added by this stereo setting. If I were to change to “dual mono”, the only option that FCPX seems to give, would playback performance of the new movie improve? Would sound quality be much affected?
    2. Another possibility would be to just show the movie from the timeline browser (full screen). Playback would be “proxy media quality”. Does this make sense?
    3. Are there other share settings that might improve playback performance without affecting quality much?
    4. Would using Compressor to create the movie help improve playback performance? If so, that would be a good reason to buy Compressor.
      Any advice or guidance will be appreciated.

    Thanks. After some experimenting, I found that export as Quicktime movie as H 263 seems to play on the G3 with good video quality.

  • Best Export Settings for PC Playback H264 or Quicktime w/H264

    I searched the forum and found a tip about Exporting Quicktime with H264, and have had really good success.
    However, trying the H264 directly, which results in an MP4 file, I have poor results. Even with the same Width and Height and bitrates for QT MOV files, they either playback jerky (same bitrate in QT plays fine), or when I scale down the width/height the video flashes green frames and at the end of the clip even reverses and goes forward Using the QT Pro player for Windows).
    Also, cannot find an explanation of the "Profile" and "Level" in the Video settings screen.
    PS - Yes, this is all new to me, and Yes I am putting the bitrate down to accommodate my older PC. Video source is the MOV 1080p files from the Canon 5d Mark II.
    Thanks!

    PS I spent all my money on the new camera and I cannot afford a MAC, although it is a long term goal.

  • HD WMV best settings for HDTV playback?

    Hi All,
    I have been recording in HD for a couple of years now but have never made use of the high quality, preferring to work with SD as I never had a HD player. I now have an Xbox 360 which allows the HD WMV file format to be played. Superb!
    I have captured video on a Sony HD HC3 which at 1080i has a resolution of 1440x1080.
    I would like to create HD versions of my tapes in the HD WMV format (or possibly another preffered HD format that can be encoded in premiere pro 2.0?) and also create DVD versions for family who do not have a HD player.
    So, without further ado the questions: -
    1) What is the best video/audio options to use when encoding the HD WMV considering the playback will be on a 42" HDTV via HDMI cable?
    2) I have seen the Dan Isaacs HD to SD conversion. I was going to use that workflow to create an SD version of the video. I'd just like confirmation that there are no unforseen issues with that...?
    Looking forward to watching my vids in HD!
    Cheers,
    MJ

  • Best settings for 4k video in Premiere Pro CS6

    I am trying to nail this down. I have an (Asus G20AJ Series) ASUS i7 3.6 Ghz with 16GB RAM 64 bit. I now have a drone that uses 4k video. I am pretty sure I have the rendering down but I wanted to ask if you guys can suggest options for all the best settings for setup, playback and export of the video. My drone does video of 4096x2160 @23 fps. When I went to render the 6 minute file, wow, it was going to take more than 4 hours! Is this right? Any info you can suggest would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank you!

    4 hours sounds about right for this source material on such a system. Better hardware may be needed to reduce the exporting time or you have to convert the source material to a less demanding format.

  • Best export settings for HD video playback on computer?

    I have shot my video on 1080p witha DSLR and edited it in premiere pro. I exported the video in .mp4 format.
    Now i imported the video in after effects and added loads of animation. I want to export it to the best quality for playback ON COMPUTER ONLY. Which is the best export settings for this purpose.
    I rendered it in .avi and my 12 minute video had a size of 55GB after render and did not play smoothly in the computer.. PLEASE HELP WITH THE BEST SETTINGS for the above purpose.

    You messed up. You should NOT have rendered MP4 out of Premiere to use in AE. You're adding compression and quality loss in between stages. BAD video person!
    The easiest thing to do would be to import your Premiere project in AE. That way it can use the original footage too. If, for some reason, you can't do that, you should render a lossless file out of Premiere. Speaking of lossless files, that's what you rendered out of AE. This page explains your large AE file issue.
    Anyway, take that large file you render out of AE into the Adobe Media Encoder and render out your final compressed file. Either H.264 or WMV should work well for playback.
