Is a 17GB mp4 file too BIG for Adobe Send ??

I have a file containing photo images, video and music files which have been mixed together using Corel Video Studio Pro X6 to form a "movie".
There are 18 separate chapters within the folder file, with the total file size being just under 17GB saved in mp4 format.
I now wish to share this "movie" file with recipients around the world (fellow travellers), and would like to know if Adobe Send is suitable, and if so, would I be able to send the entire file in one, or would I need to send the smaller individual files in blocks.??
Cheers for any advice. AAABigDog

We don't support files that large. You would be advised to keep your files to less than a couple of GBs.

59 minute, 337 MB .mp4 file too big for DVD disc in iDVD 6???

Going crazy here!! I have several 59 minute TV shows that I would like to create a menu for & then burn on a DVD that I can then easily watch on my DVD player. The file was originally an .avi file in PAL format. I tried creating the menu using the 'Pass Through' theme and dragged one .jpg image to drop zone 2. I then used 'Add Movie' to create a drop zone, and dragged my 1st .avi file to it. Then, I checked the Project Info window and see that the DVD Capacity is already in yellow, saying it's at 3.3 of 4.2 GBs. Video Mode is NTSC (since I'm in the US), Aspect Ratio is Widescreen, Encoding is Best, Project Duration is 59:37 minutes, Motion Menus is 0:37, Tracks and Menus are both 1 of 99, and in the Media window my file is listed twice, once for video and once for audio.
I thought maybe the format or file type wasn't compatible. So, I then went back and used ffmpegx to re-encode my show twice. Both times to NTSC, once to .mov and once to .mp4. Tried it exactly the same way again for each, with exactly the same results.
I tried downloading Xilisoft's DVD Creator to see if it worked there. No problems AT ALL with the .mp4 versions. Was able to put 4 episodes on one disc on medium quality, but the menus leave a lot to be desired. I'd like to use iDVD. I've made beautiful Photo DVDs with it. What am I doing wrong???

Did you switch to High Quality or Pro Quality encoding?

Archived file too big for DVD

Hello
I have created an archive file that looks to be 7.4 GB - obviously too big to fit on one DVD. Is there a way to put this file onto TWO DVD's, or do I have to try and make two files that are smaller in order to put them on DVD?
It doesn't look like the archive file is much smaller than the originals put together - there was an M4V (iPod movie - 163 MB), a disk image of the same (iDVD - 1.77 GB) and the original file from iMovie (6.6GB). I'm afraid that even if I split them up into two files, I won't be able to get the iMovie file onto one disk just by itself!
I really want them on a disk rather than an external hard drive - at the rate my son is making these movies, I'll have no space left really soon! Please help! Thanks.

"SuperDrive" is just Apple's term for their internal DVD writers. In the last couple of years, SuperDrives have been updated with DL-burning capability.
A "regular" single-layer DVD has around 4.7GB of capacity, which roughly translates to 90 minutes of video.
Commercial movie DVDs have long used the DL format, meaning that they can fit twice the length of video onto the disk. You will specifically need "DVD +R DL" disks to record this amount of data. Apple sells them, but you should also find them at good office stockists.
DVD players/readers can read both formats.

.mov file too big for posting on my website

i am using i-photo to create a slideshow. i've used photos that were 72 dpi on one slideshow and photos that were 300 dpi on another. i have about 55 photos on each slideshow. the 72 dpi slideshow is actually larger than the 300. what gives? i can't post either on my website for display. they are both too big (over 42mb). can anyone help me out on this and maybe give me some insight?
thanks-

Hi GinaP,
Yes, the 55 images equaling 42mb sounds right. What is the limitation that you have?
There might be 2 ways to reduce the total file size.
1: You may need to reduce the resolution (dimensions and file size) of each image. You can do this in iPhoto, select image, use the Share > Export, make sure you choose the 'Scale images no larger than: insert a smaller dimension that original. This will reduce resolution which in turn will reduce the file size. I would create a new folder on your desktop, name it appropriately and export into this folder. Afterwards, just take the folder and drop into iPhoto, will import and make your slideshow... BTW - you can batch export and resize
2: If you want to keep same image dimensions but need to reduce the file size, you will need to use export function again, but then you can open your images in PREVIEW, use the SAVE AS option, you will notice a 'Quality' slide, move this to the left to 'shrink' images... and again import and make your slide show.
It's alot of work, but I know of nothing else you can do to reduce file size w/o downloading another App...

Encore CS6 - File Too Big For Disk

My Computer Stats: Imac 3.4Ghz,Core i7, 8GB Ram, About 2 years old.
My Project: Standard Definition, 16x9 Aspect Ratio, About 4 hours of raw footage captured from dv tapes to external usb drive dock with a 500 GB drive in it, footage edited down in Premeire Pro CS6 to 1:55:00 and used Dynamic Link to bring the project into Encore to make a standard definition DVD. Rendering the ISO file to the desktop of the iMac.
I have done this process many times with projects of similar length. Each prior time I was able to make a DVD. I have tried many of the DVD Presets. The lowest quality preset estimates the file size at 3.4 gig. But the resulting file is 5.43 gig. I have adjusted many of the Project Settings and Quality Setting, even setting the quality to its lowest setting. The resulting ISO file will not get any smaller than 4.92 gigs. Too big to fit a 4.7 gig blank disk.
I have tied this process on the iMac listed above and on a Mac Mini. Prior to this project I had not had any issues making DVD's on either machine. The only thing that is different and common to both machines is that I had installed Premeire Pro CC recently on both to test it out. However this project was captured in PP CS6 and edited in PP CS6.
My client wants the DVD's he has paid for. My deadline has passed. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The first preset has been selected.
Okay; but that is why I want to see the project panel. You can "select" a preset in the edit panel, but not "select" it as the actual transcode setting.
The Transcode Settings panel, not the Edit Quality Presets panel, is where you actually set the preset to be used.

Video files too big for Vision W 30

I have movies that I converted to .avi files. They are 480x272 resolution. The problem is that any movie longer than hour 40 minutes (about GB) won't play through. For instance I converted a movie (about 2.5 hours, .7 GB), When I first look at the file on the Zen W it says 2:30 hours (or so), then after I start it, it shows hour 39 minutes and it only plays to that point and freezes. I have tried a few movies and always get the same result. What am I doing wrong?
Any help would be appreciated. I have been using iri'verter to convert. Fimware version .0.0.

An update: I don't even seem to be able to use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files. "unrecognizable file type."

2 gigs of .mov files too big for dvd?

I have 3 .mov files that I want to burn to a dvd. Each individual file is approx 700 meg or so. When I try and add the first file, it appears that it takes up 3.9g of 4g. Dragging the 2nd file in gives me the "Project Duration Error"
"Your project exceeds the maximum allowed content duration. You will not be able to burn your DVD while your Encoder Setting is Best Performance. This can be changed in your iDVD Preferences."
Changing that pref allows me to get the 2nd file on the dvd, but I can't get the 3rd file on the dvd without idvd complaining. Is there really that much overhead to make a dvd? I would think that with < 2g of media there should be no problem burning a dvd..
BTW-I have made sure that I checked that project->project info and set the size to a single layer dvd....
seems really difficult for something SUPPOSED to be easy
thanks in advance for any help....

ahhh, that is the problem then. I have 3 movies, each one is approximately an hour, so that must be why...
On another note, does anyone know if another application will allow me to write the 3hrs of video on 1 dvd? We have DVD studio pro, I figured iDVD would be quicker/simpler to get up and running with, so that is why I tried using that first...
thanks again

Audio files too big for Muse?

Hi -
I just added with the help of the MuseGrid audio widget about 110MB worth of mp3 files to my site. It's suddenly taking a very long time to publish when it used to take seconds. Am I going to crash the site? Is there a limit I am pushing here w regards to file size?
Thanks much -
D

Hi
Are you still facing this issue ?
If file is large then it can take up time to get uploaded, there is as such not limit to add files but its always good to split if files size is too large to load on page.
Thanks,

File too big for dvd???

I've just had a thought i'm currently working on my own 15 short film and I'm not even finished yet but i exported it out as i wanted to put the working movie on my itouch and then i saw that the file size so far it just around 5gb but my thought is when i come to my movie completed how i'm i going to be able to export and burn on to a dvd. If i use compressor to downsize the file surely its going to affect the quality of the movie???
I believe the final movie size will be under 10gb in total as i've added most of my motions ect ect but how i'm i going to deal with dvd pro come burning day??
all the best guys

When i export do you think there would be a difference in file size if i make it self contained or just contained??
Well, there is no "contained." You can either have a "Reference" or "self-contained" movie. A referennce movie does just what it says, it references other files. So to answer your question, yes a reference movie will be much smaller, but it does not contain all of your movie. To use a reference movie you must be on the same computer you created it on and have access to all of your source media. It is not portable.
What settings do you use in compressor to maximize you movie quality but keep the quality high enough for enjoyment but keeping the size down to fit onto disk??
There are presets in Compressor that are a good place to get started, but compression is a science and an art. Only you can tell what looks the best. Sometimes trial and error is the only choice.
You would probably do well to crack open the manuals.

Movie file too big for DVD

I've just finished a short film using FCP HD 4.5. DV PAL 720x576 and i need to get it onto a DVD.
I exported it from FCP as a Quicktime movie and it weighs 5.41Go. How do i make it lighter to go on a DVD of only 4.7 Go? I tried reexporting it by using Custom settings in the window that pops up when ur about to export. In this window I tried to lower the quality from 100 to 75%. The resulting file was the same size. I tried to use a smaller resolution 600x480. File was same size. What is the secret to getting movies on DVD's?
The DVD needs to be able to work with a living room DVD player. Is Toast Lite 6.1 ok for doing this? In all that jungle of DVDs with R's and RW's and +/- etc etc what is my best bet for a DVD that can be seen by a majority of people? Would be grateful for any help, and in the meantime i'm going to check through the forum ... i'm sure i'm not the only one who's had this problem.
Thanks

What is the secret to getting movies on DVD's?<<</div>
The secret? It's no secret at all ... its called compression. In particular, MPEG-2 compression.
Regular DV25 (DV/DVCam/DVCPro) takes up about 13gb per hour. Since a single layer DVD (DVD-5) only has about 4.3gb of space available, the video will have to be compressed to MPEG-2, which is the current standard format for standard definition DVD-Video. Since your final program is to be view on TV sets, you'll want to maintain the same settings, frame rate and resolution as you have in FCP.
The process of compressing is also often called encoding. The basic process can be done from FCP via several methods;
1. Export from FCP "Using QuickTime Conversion" (no longer available with QT 7) - select MPEG-2 from the format menu of the export dialog, then use the options button to specify bit rate and other parameters. The result will be an MPEG-2 (.m2v) file along with an AIF audio file of the same name. Normally you'll need to convert the AIF files into AC3 using APack (bundled with DVD-SP) in order to save room on the DVD for video and menus, etc.
2. Export from FCP "Using Compressor." You can choose an appropriate preset or modify one to suit your needs. The result is the same as above so you'll still need to convert the AIF file into AC3. If you have Compressor 2, they've added the option of AC3 encoding so you won't have to use APack.
After you've done either 1 or 2 above, import the .m2v and AC3 files into DVD-SP for authoring, compiling (muxing) and burning.
Or you can export from FCP via "QuickTime Movie" (either self-contained or reference) then encode that file in Compressor or import it directly into iDVD or DVD-SP for encoding, authoring and muxing.
Toast and other third party programs can do MPEG-2 encoding, but in tests I've run, the quality of the compression from Toast was among the lowest.
so that it can be read both by an ordinary living-room dvd player (what's the english expression for that?!)<<</div>
We generally just call them DVD players or set top players.
In all that jungle of DVDs with R's and RW's and +/- etc etc what is my best bet for a DVD that can be seen by a majority of people?<<</div>
Don't use RWs for distribution - they have a much lower compatibility rate among DVD players. Currently -R has a very slight advantage over +R but the gap is so close it shouldn't make much of a difference with most later model DVD players.
I notice that the colour seems a little faded when i watch the DVD on my TV<<</div>
This can happen if your DVD player adds set up to the video signal output. Basically it increases the black level by about 7.5 IRE which has the effect of reducing contrast and can make colors start to look a little flat. Some models that do this have a black level control in their menu.

Receive file too big for email

For me, the most significant function missing from iCloud is the iDisk Public Folder option so clients can send me files which exceed email attachment size limits.
These are not files to be shared publicly, and most of my clients are governmental entities with restricted networks so users cannot join a file-sharing service, but they could simply upload files to my iDisk Public Folder.
Without Public Folder we're back to burning CD/DVD and snail mail.
Alternatives?

Dolby 2.0 and .aiff are both audio files - the .aiff is not compressed, but the Dobly 2.0 is an AC3 file and will be about a tenth the size of the other, and run at a far lower bitrate.
Compressor produces both files by default when you use 'All' with one of the pre-sets. If you don't want them both, remove one from the batch window, or create your own pre-set which doesn't include the unwanted version.
Dolby 2.0 refers to it being a stereo track with 2.0 channels, it isn't a later version of Dolby.
When the encoding is complete, bring both the video and the required audio (I suggest the AC3 for space and bandwidth) into DVDSP and use them in a track for authoring to DVD.

Attach/open file window too big for screen

Just recently I've found that when I go to attach a file in email for example, or open something in the finder the window that comes up from which I can choose my file is too big for the screen. So the bottom corner, which has the "attach" or "Cancel" buttons, is obscured. It's very frustrating... I can hit enter to attach a file but can't cancel it if I change my mind. Hope that makes sense... I've moved the dock out of the way but that doesn't help at all, and I can't use the green button to resize or anything.
Hope someone can help... I've also restarted the computer but the problem is still there. I'm using a macbook pro, and I have upgraded to the latest OSX software.
thanks

I have my iTunes library on an external HD because it is too big for my iMAC 500GB HD. I want to backup my external HD. Can I do this with any Apple cloud product or should I look elsewhere? Also is it worth just buying another external HD to back up

I have my iTunes library on an external HD because it is too big for my iMAC 500GB HD. However, it is not backed up, so I need a solution to backup my external HD. Can I do this with any Apple cloud product or should I look elsewhere for cloud products? Will it be cheaper/easier just to buy another external HD to back up my existing external HD? Thanks

I don't know if this is me adding files to iTunes when the external wasn't connected
it is.
is it OK to just keep deleting that library on the Air?
i wouldn't - at least not until i
mount the external
point iTunes media folder location back to the external via preferences > advanced
consolidate my library via file > library > organize library
The ntfs hasn't seem to be causing any problems, but I've always wanted to know.
in order for your Mac to write to NTFS drives, it needs some help by installing e.g. the NTFS 3G driver. apparently that or something similar is installed on your Mac already. preferably, it would be formatted for Mac but then windows machines would need to have e.g. MacDrive installed to recognize the drive.

Scanned doc now too big for print

Hi,
I have scanned this sheet and modified it, now i need to print it back but photoshop says its too big for print.
Indeed it just printed a portion of it.
Can someone with experience of this kind of issue explain me the technicalities and what should i do?
I know photoshop only when it comes to chop pictures, put loads of filters and make them jolly, i am not into stuffs like scan/sizing/printing, etc., so please don't explain to go down to the basic basics in your explanation.
Thanks

Well, when you say "Manufacturer's software" I assume you mean the scanner's software and NOT Photoshop. It is best to scan directly into Photoshop by using the menu File>Acquire Image>[select your scanner source--either the scanner name or TWAIN driver]. When this is chosen your scanner's driver will launch a "plug-in" software interface that will allow you to scan the document and set a marquee around what you want to scan and also choose the resolution. After that you will be able to save the document -- give it a unique name like "file.psd" -- and then make changes -- again give it a unique name like "file_edited.psd". The document measurements you gave us seem to fit within the bounds of a United States (US) Letter size document which is 8.5 inches x 11 inches. If your printer has the ability to print borderless documents you should be able to print this document without a problem with a resolution of 300dpi. It is possible that it would not be able to if there is not enough memory on your printer and that is why you get the error message. (But as a JPG image the file size will be compressed, so I'm not really sure why your document would be too large.)

ODI-40406: Bytes are too big for array error

There is a possibility of mismatch of datatype, that can cause the problem.
Say in ODI model, you have defined a 'Date type' field to be stored as 'String' however at the time of mapping in 'Interface', no conversion happens (from date to string) for this particular object. This causes the problem.
The original query remains valid at DB side (fires for datetype) however fails while integrating (anticipating String which may be longer than defined in modelbecause of your NLS setting in DB). Therefore the best way would be to apply conversion for that particular field (in this case, use TO_CHAR(Date type,'Desired Date Format').
