Large Animation File in Timeline won't run smoothly
Ok.... so I have a large animation clip that runs perfectly on the viewer, but when I play it in a sequence with all the matched settings, it fails on me. it starts runnign with a lot of difficulty. Making it impossible to work with.
The clip format is:
size: 2GB
Frame size: 1920x1080
codec: Animation
I have several clip with these settings that I need to work with, and the only way i found to be able to work with them is by compressing them into a AppleProRes 422 (HQ) codec. I made a quick test using the new codec and it work perfectly.
BUT, I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW IF THERE IS ANY OTHER EASIER WAY to work with these files using the original format. I have over a 100 files to edit and not a lot of time to sit down and convert them all.
Is the ProRes422 (HQ) my only solution? Is the ProRes422 (HQ) my best solution?
I have a Mac Pro 2x2.4 Ghz Intel Xeon , with a 6 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 ECC memory and a ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024 MB graphics card. With FCP7 running.
I will greatly aprecciate your advice on this one!
Animation codec is not an editing codec. It has a HUGE data rate. So huge that playback is impossible. Even if you had a VERY fast drive RAID, it isn't the best solution. The Animation codec is designed to be a lossless delivery codec, but when the editor receives the file, they need to convert to an editing codec specific to their machine. IN your case, ProRes.
Yes, Converting to ProRes or ProRes HQ is your best option.

Problems saving large animation file to any format
I worked on an animation file that ended up being about 600 frames with a resolution of about 1024 * 768 pixels which had hudreds of layered vector and raster objects. This was in CS4 Photoshop on my school's computer as a final project for Graphic Arts class. The animation plays very slowly with a stuttering framerate while in photoshop and will not save to any file format. It saved fine up until around frame 500. I've tried saving it to gif and PSD, but each time it takes several hours to load the save screen and even longer for it to try to save the file only to have it fail to finish saving. I don't really know anything about keyframes or symbols, so I created each object as I needed it. I'm thinking this is a hardware issue more than Photoshop, but is there any other way to save this?
Playing slowing could be lack of ram, but it could also be the incorrect frame rate(especially if someone before you had changed it). Make sure you are in timeline mode, click on the small icon in the upper right hand corner of the animation window, select Document settings(This option is only available in timeline mode) Now set the correct fps(frames per second) Normal video is 29.97, most web videos are 15fps but I have seen videos especially for screen grabs to be as low as 5fps. The smaller the number the slower the animation and the more jumpy it will be. On the other hand the higher the number the smoother the video and the larger the animation file will be. Its up to you to find the compromise.

Hi, I've created a short into flash for a website-to-be but
it pauses and doesn't run smooth when uploaded to the site. The
flash movie is only 600 kb. What can I do to fix this?
http://www.highmarkdesigns.com/Proofing/worldfamous/animation/intro.htmlHi Hanna,
The Save and Compact is an option right under the Save
option. It removes any memory of changes made and objects that no
longer exist. But if everything in that piece is a jpeg, that's not
likely to change it much.
Based on the visual quality of the jpegs, I'd say they are
probably high KB pieces... GIF's would be more appropriate and
would probably provide some file size savings. jpgs are better for
images with lots of colors and shades. GIFs are better for images
with limited colors and large color areas like in that piece.
Is the 600KB all involved with just that one scene? If so, I
personally would redraw it all in Flash, just for the KB savings,
but that's me. As I said, the amount of graphics there would amount
to next to nothing as Flash drawn graphics. -
6800 GT won't run smoothly with sata hd's installed
I was just wondering if any one else has had this problem. My BFG 6800 GT freezes up for 5-10 seconds at a time when I try to run games or benchmarks. I am able to get it to run smoothly when I remove my sata hd's. Also if I put a different video card in and leave the sata's it will run with out problems. Keep in mind that these parts were all running just fine together on an XP Nforce2 board. They also work just fine on a K8t800 pro board that I am using now. If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate the help.

Jar file from netbeans won't run when doubleclicked
Hello,
I've just completed my first java application using netbeans (just a simple "hello world"), it runs fine in the netbeans ide, but when I located the .jar file and double clicked it, nothing happens. I've already verified that the file extension .jar is associated with javaw.exe so that's not the problem.
Anyone how to fix this problem?
Thanks!
Edited by: b-rad311 on Jul 14, 2010 8:44 AMMy guess is he posted something and then edited it and put in nvm for NeVer Mind.
In NetBeans I would try this to make sure the main class setting is fully saved with new version of NetBeans
press Ctrl+1 to go to projects tab
Right click your project click Properties
on left click Run
Make sure you don't have anything in Arguments or VM Options because javaw will read use either of these settings.
Click Browse next to Main Class and click your class again and click Select Main Class. Then click OK to rewrite the settings.
Right click your project and do "Clean And Build".

I updated to the new firefox 8. It worked fine until webroot ran a virus scan. It quarantined the ssl3.dll file as a medium risk threat. Is it safe for me to un-quarantine, or is it a malicious file?
Hi Codgerette,
This is Greg from Webroot Support responding to your post.
I checked your Support ticket and it appears that the reason the file was quarantined was due to a false positive detection which has been resolved. I can assure you that Webroot products are thoroughly tested with other software packages to insure compatibility. Occasionally some applications that receive incremental updates may initially get flagged due to the behavioral detection technique in SecureAnywhere. Unlike traditional security software, Webroot SecureAnywhere relies on a cloud database to check files, so as soon as this file was deemed safe, all customers who have Webroot SecureAnywhere installed will not have this file quarantined and the installation should go smoothly.
Thanks,
Greg

My aplication won't run if debugging is not allowed
I am using Labview 1011
I have one application with debugging not allowed in the file settings, it won't run and I have to use task manager to stop it.
this is only with the Application Builder. And my other applications do not have this problem. What can I look for?Well it might be helpful to know what you've already tried; what makes you think that the debugging setting is what is causing your issue? Does the program execute as expected in the development environment? (ie, not as an executable) Does the executable work when debugging is allowed? Just because you can't get a program to respond to the user interface doesn't explicitly mean that it isn't executing; it could be stuck in a loop. Are you using the Current VI Path constant within your program? This will return a slightly different path from the development environment than when in an executable (see the link for more detail).

IDVD won't load large project file..Help!
iDVD won't load large project file once I close the program for the first time since finishing the project. Basically, I made a compilation DVD of numerous individual files spread across quite a few folders/sub-menus totaling about 236 minutes on a Dual Layer DVD+R. I closed the project prior to burning but now, iDVD gets the rainbow wheel everytime you try to load that particular project. What's the deal?
Notes:
-iDVD does still load if I want to load another (smaller/simple project) or start a new one.
-I've tried to start over from scratch a make the exact same project. When I exited out and went to load it, it did the same thing.
-I'm running Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard and iDVD 7.1.2.

attempted to mail an email with a large attachment file. One of the addresses was bad. When my Outlook is running, the Mac tries to send it and shows the progress. However, when I look in my Outbox the files are not there. It does show up in the Outbox progress section but I can not delete it when it is there.
Where do these files reside?
Is there a hidden Outbox??

Aperture import plug-in won't run. After examining my library the number of image files stays at "undetermined" and the import button stays greyed out. Any thoughts?
Others have the same issue, with the import button being grayed out. My trail copy expired, but I believe by poking around in the options and selecting another Aperture library and re-selecting, I was able to continue.
The problem is common enough, that hopefully Adobe will address. In the mean time, try repairing your Aperture library, checking permissions, exporting a subset of your library for a test, or try putting that library subset on an external drive. (Can usually avoid permissions issues.) -
Random exe-files won't run on windows. Driver related?
Hope someone smarter than me can find an answer to this...
I've tried running a bunch of games via bootcamp and random exe-files won't run. A couple of times the setup.exe wouldn't start and other times the installations go fine but the game itself refuses. I get a short flash of a dos prompter that disappears within the fraction of a second and then nothing happens at all.
I get the same thing weather I run XP SP3 or Win 7 x86 and I've probably tried ten games all together.
I'm thinking it must somehow be driver (or else way BootCamp) related since all games have been successfully run on native PCs.
Any ideas?I get a short flash of a dos prompter that disappears within the fraction of a second and then nothing happens at all.
That sounds almost like trouble with your Windows Installer.
What versions of Windows installer are you running for each of your OSes?
A quick way to check: bring up a Run line, type msiexec and hit the Enter key. The Windows Installer version should be at the top of the information screen that comes up. -
Existing piece won't run video files on windows 7 and vista
hi, folks - I need some help.
we have a series of older (2003) authorware pieces that use .mpg and .mov files. We run the lessons (exams, actually) at 10 or so sites across the country, twice a year. They've been running fine for 7 years with occasional updates and tinkering. At the sitting last week we had problems with a lab that just converted to Windows 7 and another laptop that runs Vista Business. In both cases the authorware file loads and runs until a screen that tries to load a video file. The placeholder shows up (a square with an x across it indicating its size), but the piece freezes and nothing runs. The piece runs fine on all the other sites and on a variety of pc's at our location.
In both cases, we are able to load and run the video files directly from the hard drive through Media Players, but they will not load in authorware.
I've tried recompressing the files into .wmv, mp4, mov, and avi. Still won't run. Tried recompressing on a different machine and still no joy.
would really appreciate any ideas or help on this.
thanks,
Ronthanks, Steve and Eric. Replaced it and it's running fine - appreciate the response and advice.

Aggregator EXE files won't run
Hi,
I'm new to using Captivate and I recently created my first Captivate-based lesson. I have 5 discrete learning modules each with their own multiple-choice quiz, so I decided it would be best to make 5 different projects and then stitch them together using Aggregator. I want to publish both an APP file for Mac users and an EXE file for PC folks. The APP file I create in Aggregator runs just fine, but the EXE file won't run. There are no error messages, it just doesn't do anything when you try to run the file.
Here is what I have tried (without success):
Both XP and Win 7 (won't run on either)
Installing newest version of Flash Player
Running the EXE file as an Admin
Oddly enough, if I publish each of the 5 projects as an EXE separately, they run just fine. My back-up plan is to make the PC users open each of the 5 modules separately, but I'd prefer to avoid this if I can.
Am I doing something wrong in Aggregator? It seems pretty simple and the APP file works...
Thanks for any help!
JessHi Rod,
That was a great idea. Unfortunately, none of the 5 Aggregator EXE files (each with one of the 5 projects missing from it) worked. I double-checked the 5 EXE files that I published individually directly from Captivate (without Aggregator) and all of them work just fine. It's looking like I need to go with plan B and just force my users to return repeatedly to the CD-ROM to open each subsequent module.
I asked a friend to run the Aggregator-created APP file on his Mac and it wouldn't run for him even though it will run for me on my Mac. So I'm thinking I will need to publish each of the 5 projects as separate APP files as well and the Mac and PC folks will be in the same boat.
Thanks,
Jess
