Long format programs

I have a 264-minute anamorphic program that I need on DVD. After saving it as Quicktime Movie and fixing the aspect ratio issue in Quicktime Pro (for import to iDVD,) it's a 8.42GB file. Even for a dual-layer DVD, all three encode settings on iDVD tell me the project is too long and I have to delete content.
What do you recommend I use to compress programs of this type so they'll fit on a DL disc? Maybe I'm just too used to a PC, but I'm assuming Quicktime Pro won't work well because it was only $30. I'd also really like to retain the chapter markers I set in FCE if possible.
Right now, I think my workflow is great - it'd be perfect if my program was about 30-minutes shorter.

There is nothing that can do it and still make it playable on a set-top DVD. You have exceeded the limits of the format. There is only so much the disc can hold.

  • Compressing long format video

    HELLO everyone. I have a live event that I recorded and is approximately 90 minutes in length. I'm not sure the proper way to compress this video so that it fits on one DVD. Really, quick I'm exporting this video via FCP using QUICKTIME MOVIE. My settings I believe are ok. I have:
    1. DV NTSC 48KHZ
    2. INCLUDE = AUDIO AND VIDEO
    3. MARKERS = NONE
    Now, I was wondering if splittling the video in half and make two DVD's is the way to go or is there another way to compress it? I really don't have any experience in compressing files especially long format files. Thanks for your help.
    ERV

    Hey Dave, I just exported another Q.T. file using the same settings now my quicktime file is 9 gigs instead of 18 because I cut the video in half. If the video is 9 gigs when I import it into DVD STUDIO PRO and DVD SP begins to compress it will it still be 9 gigs once DVD SP compressor compresses it or will it be fewer gigs. The reason I'm asking is because I spent all night trying to compress 90 minutes of footage it took 12 hours and still wasn't complete. The Q.T. file was still 18 gigs when I tryed to burn it to DVD and as a result could not fit on a 4.7 gigs dvd. I know you mentioned compressor as a way to burn my footage on but I'm so illiterate on that program is there and easy approach to accomplishing this task using that program?

  • Challenging question: Status report for long running program...

    Hi All,
    With all the control stuff around like cl_dd_document I was wondering if there is a way to give a user a report which shows the progress of a very long running program?
    i.e. If I have a 20 step process and each step takes 1 minute, the following is what I would like to occur:
    Output a status line in a report format, run step, repeat until all steps are finished.
    This is similar to the status bar, but with a history of what is happening.  Obviously scrolling needs to be considered also.  Ideally it would behave like sapinst would but in a reporting format.
    Obviously this has to bypass the PBO/PAI approach, hence why I believe UI Controls must be the answer.
    Any ideas anyone?
    Regards,
    Matt

    Without using a control, you could try the old report refresh trick using set user-command and an action triggered after an RFC in a new task ... see basic demo below:

  • Does win8/8.1/10 kill long-running programs automatically as stated in specs? reasons why?

    does win8/8.1/10 kill/end-task long-running programs automatically as stated in specs? how specifically does it detect a locked-up process?
    has this been put into windows 7 at any time to make it similar to windows 8?
    Please supply accurate answers. thank you.
    My understanding the reason for this change was to handle locked-up programs.
    I do have a number of long-running processes. some examples of mine and scenarios for other users:
    simulations on a Workstation or HPC Server
    doing a directory tree walk on a hard disk with >=1TB of data
    reference articles I have found on the subject:
    windows 7
    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/exit-program-not-responding#1TC=windows-7
    windows 8
    From some of what I understand, you can also get the "Program Not Responding" or similarly titled dialog box when:
    bug in the source code of the program in question. for instance, while(1){} such as forever loops (win7)
    similar program bug when declaring a function one way but defining it a different way and then calling it (mismatch in function signature) (win7)
    similar to above with DLLs in using MSVCRT*.DLL or other
    (?) can't remember for sure on this, but I think some badly formed calls or it was invalid values or data type mismatch to Win32 API can do this from buggy code. (win7)
    for (x=0; x < 16777216; x++) {your code here...} in other words, large values for loop termination (win7)
    this is a repost of http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-performance/does-win88110-kill-long-running-programs/d35c3c9e-c6f4-4bbf-846a-2041bf2167a0?tm=1427518759476
    here due to a request to do so.

    does win8/8.1/10 kill/end-task long-running programs automatically as stated in specs? how specifically does it detect a locked-up process?

    My understanding the reason for this change was to handle locked-up programs.
    Hi Jim,
    First, I have to admit that I'm not fully understanding the question, If a program is not responding, it means the program is interacting more slowly than usual with Windows, typically could be a confliction of software or hardware resources between
    two programs, lack of system resources, or a bug in the software or drivers. In that case, we can choose to wait or end the program. This design is similiar in Windows 7, Windows 8 and other OS.
    For deeper analysis, system determines whether the system considers that a specified application is not responding using a "IsHungAppWindow function",
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms633526.aspx
    And this link also give some explanation: Preventing Hangs in Windows Applicationshttps://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd744765%28v=vs.85%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396

  • Payment Format Program Output in XML

    Hi All,
    I am trying to create a new payment format and should display the output in XML.
    For this I created a PL/SQL procedure , created my tags and displayed the out put in XML format. Using this I created one RTF template and did the data def and data Template.
    I defined the payment format, programs and a document.
    When I run the payment batch using this format , It says no output is generated.
    But the xml output is generated, the template is not shown as attached.
    If I run the concurrent program alone of the payment format I can see the template attched and the output generated in XML.
    BUt when I run the same through a payment batch selecting the document from which the program format is run it does not seem to take the template and hence no output even though there is XML.
    Can someone throw some light.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I got it...Now I am able to generated the output in PDF.
    It is a 2 step process, I had to submit XML Report Publisher Program once the format program is run so that it picks the tempalte and generates the output.
    So, Now is there a way to skip this 2 step process ?
    coz finally I have to print the out of the format to a printer.
    Thanks

  • IE 11 with CRM 2011 Lead phone numbers no longer format

    We are experiencing some form issues after we moved to IE11. The lead phone numbers no longer format properly and the Opportunity Estimated Revenue no longer calculates. Has anyone else had any issues with IE11 and some javascript not working correctly?
    This is actually a bigger issue then we first thought. We have also noticed that the administrative tools for workflows do not work correctly and that the ability to change columns in views no longer work as expected. Once I downgraded from IE11 back to
    IE9. All is working as expected again.

    rollup installed? because IE11 is compatible from rollup 17.
    the javascript use only supported code? you can share the script if you want

  • How to get GML data in LAT/LONG format rather than LONG/LAT format

    I want to generate GML from my spatial data but sdo_util.to_Gmlgeometry extracts data in LONG/LAT format where as I need it in LAT/LONG format.
    Is there an easy way to extract data in LAT/LONG format otehr than parsing the gml and then switching the Lat and long.

    Hi,
    I think it would have to do how you store your geometries, you might need a transformation before, notice the srsName from the resulting query:
    SELECT TO_CHAR(SDO_UTIL.TO_GMLGEOMETRY(MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY(2001, 8307, NULL, MDSYS.SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1,1), MDSYS.SDO_ORDINATE_ARRAY(170.5,-43.5))))
    from dual
    -- Result:
    <gml:Point srsName="SDO:8307" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml"><gml:coordinates decimal="." cs="," ts=" ">170.5,-43.5 </gml:coordinates></gml:Point>
    So without a transformation I would say it would be hard to get:
    http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc20_srs_axes
    If I come across a simple solution (without some fancy manipulation of the ordinates on a custom function/package) I will post it.

  • How to set custom remittance transmission format program in AR(r12)

    Hi
    We are upgrading 11i to r12
    In 11i We had a custom remittance transmission program defined and set for a particualr payment method of a receipt classa and remittance method.
    The field to set remittance transmission program is no more available in r12,
    when we are formatting a remittance batch
    In 11i the "Automatic Remittances Creation Program" used to fire "custom remittence trasmission program" , "Print Remittances" which are remittence transmission program and remittance print program that are attched to the payment method.
    In R12 The "Automatic Remittances Creation Program(API) is firing "Automatic Receipts/Remittances Execution Report" and "Print Remittances".
    The "Print Remittances", this i can see attached in the payment method definition. There is no field to attach custom remittance transmission format program and i am not aware where it is picking the "Automatic Receipts/Remittances Execution Report".
    The output of "Automatic Receipts/Remittances Execution Report" contains "WARNING: No format program defined."
    Some one please help us in creating and attaching custom remittance transimssion format to a payment method in r12.
    Thanks & Regards

  • Change to change user email from long format to short format

    Hi, folks:
    I created a new administrator (Preference) and type in an email address. However, there is no place to specify long or short format. I browse the MGMT_NOTIFY_DEVICES table and the TYPE is 1. Right now, I manually changed it to 5 in the table to have short format. Is there anywhere on grid control I can changed it on-line.

    You have two questions
    - Login your GC with sysman and change in preferences the long format for shor format. This option is possible if you edit the emoms.properties file in the sysman\config directory of your oms machine
    - your other user
    have notification rules of himself or he suscribe to sysman rules
    In the second option you must change the sysman options.
    In the first option you must change your preferences for this user
    If the situation is combination of both, change the preferences in all the administrator users

  • After 10.5.4 upgrade Disk Utility does not longer format UBS FlashDrive to

    After 10.5.4 upgrade Disk Utility does no longer format disk to FAT32 only FAT16.
    I have use 2 different Mac to format my USB Drive and I still get FAT16 there is no drop down selection for FAT16 or FAT32. Both Mac are Intel and running the latest OSX 10.5.4. Actually, this happen after I upgraded to 10.5.4.
    just wondering is anyone out there having the same issue, if someone know a way to fix this will be greatly appreciated.
    P.S. The USB is a Lexar (it never gave me any trouble).

    In that case, you're looking at doing an Archive & Install installation. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1545?viewlocale=en_US for details.

  • Show long format date in menue bar

    how do i get the long format -- i.e., Sat. Mar 5, 08 AND the time -- to show in my menu bar? as the help menu suggested, i pulled up the date and time window and specified the long format in international but the menu bar still only shows Mon and the time but no date. many thanks, steven totosy

    Thank you. I will try this method when I have the courage. There was a cut and past technique with time and date in international preferences which I read as a tip which I could easily do with my MacBook Pro but not with my wife's. I can't find that reference now.

  • Compressing Long Format HD Show in Quicktime

    Anyone working on long format shows and sending quicktimes for client review or as working copies for composers?
    We are cutting a show in DVCProHD 24p and currently have a 3 hour rough cut that we need to get to various people. We have been periodically sending smaller chunks by compressing to Quicktime with H.264 and sending via FTP, and have had excellent success. But now that our show is long we can't make QT's without it starting to take a day or longer to do the compression, and projecting file sizes of 8gigs or more for a half size H.264 QT.
    We've tried other compression settings as well, such as Sorenson, with similar results.
    Is anyone out there using QT for long format files from HD footage? Any suggestions?
    Thanks.
      Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Compress Sorenson 3...320x180...or slightly bigger. Takes FAR less time...and still looks pretty good.
    E-Mail me and I can send you the compressor "droplets" I use.

  • SD: entry is too long; format is _-_

    Hi guys,

    hi ,
    The attribute to be bound can be of type STRING or STRING_TABLE. With STRING_TABLE rows from TextEdit are stored as table rows. A line break is always stored as a line feed in a STRING (CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE, ASCII decimal 10). The Web Dynpro framework carries out the conversion for the client platform.
    Note that a string to be displayed in TextEdit, must only use a line feed as a line break.

  • How to format programming source-code in a Framemaker document?

    I have to write up a technical document in Framemaker that explains various programming source-code.
    So my document consists of a bunch of text, followed by a bunch of source code (Java, XML) and then followed by more text, etc.
    What I'm confused about is how to format source code as part of my document. Has anyone done this for a technical document and come across any instructions or tips? So far my Googling hasn't produced anything relevant to what I need to do.

    If you haven't created a paragraph format that uses a fixed-width font, such as Courier or a console font, you need to do that.
    If you want to preserve line breaks in the code, and if it has fairly long lines, you're likely to need to specify a font size of 7 pt. or so. For really long lines, you may need to go to a landscape page format or incorporate a way of telling your readers that the lines wrap.
    Those are the basics. If you want to get fancier, I usually set up a table so I can apply a contrasting background tone, and format each line of code as a cell (it's a one-column table). You can also add a second column to hold line numbers, if you want.
