Maximum length of project on BR ?

Hi again,
I am in the process of making my first BluRay and I need to know how much of my project will fit on a BR 25 or 50 G.
I understand that 25 is roughly 2 hrs video and 50, 4 hrs but I guess it all depends on the compression I use.... Right or wrong ?
Can someone please help me figure how long FCP project I can put on a BR after compression ?
Thanks in advance
Ivan

I don't know what the OP started with but I shoot in HDV. If you are clever you can capture the native stream, and put it onto a BD with only muxing, building, and burning. You have to trick Toast into not reencoding it.
Here's a thought experiment: 1080i has six times the screen area of 480i. A sweet spot of SD m2v could be 4.5mbps. Six times that is almost exactly the bitrate of HDV. So I am essentially using twice the bitrate of a DVD, on a disc with five times the capacity. Or, cutting the bitrate of the HDV in half (or more) by using H.264.
Again, I could go lower. But four hours of home movies per disc seemed just about right. Also, I have a mini that I use for encoding. I let it run for 50 hours on one of these discs. Occasionally I have problems, and I have to try it again. 50 hours is plenty for me. So It seems to be a good amount. Also, I end up with about 60 chapters for each of these discs. Five hours would mean even more chapters.

I made a sellection of video clips > pressed on "share" > on iDVD > after one hour of formating the message was under "project duration" : "Your project exceeds the maximum content duration. To burn your DVD, change the encoder setting in the Project Info window."
I have edited out some of the clips and waited anothe hour or so bu the same message appeared !
I want to know in advance how long can be the video clip sellection for the quality of video chosen ( the best before HD).

It's trying to tell you to change the encoding setting:
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned about the time taken.
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

Maximum length of movie

I have just barely under 2 hours of video that I have imported into iMovie. For best quality should I make this footage into 2 separate iMovie projects and burn on 2 separate DVDs (the video lends itself to being divided at the 1 hour mark), or will I be okay having a 2 hour movie in both iMovie and iDVD? Thank you for any help.

Yes, 2 hours is the maximum length of a single layer DVD (iMovie has no such limitation), but that includes menus, transitions, titles etc.
In iDVD:
Best Performance is for movies of up to 60 minutes.
Best Quality is for movies of 61 - 120 minutes.
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc).

Maximum Length Moviein iDVD?????

What is the maximum length movie that iDVD can handle?
is it based upon duration or file size.....or both?
I have a 3.8GB 156 minute movie I am wrestling with and I am wondering whether I need to split it
thanks

I'm not an expert, but I think I can help.
It's file size, but that will be dependent on the length of the video, the quality you at which you are encoding and the aspect ratio. The other major factor is whether you are using a single or double layer DVD (4.2 or 7.7 GB). Go to the Project Info in the Project menu and look at the options and how full the bar is. It's pretty self-explanatory. (If you change options, you'll have to re-encode.)
The only other hints I can give are, make sure you have loads of free space on your hard drive. I had issues until I cleared off some space. My most recent changes were correct and saved in the project, but were not on the final burned DVD even after re-encoding the entire project. I think that I had 20+GB free for a 4.2 GB DVD when it worked right. Also, before you make multiple dupes, check the first DVD to see that all the menus, slideshows, audio and video work as expected. I know of someone who burned 20+ dupes of a project where the everything worked on the menus and slideshow, but the main movie had no audio. (Dohhh!)
Good Luck.

Slideshow Maximum Length??

I just burned a tester DVD last night. I'm checking it out on a windows machine today and for some reason all my Photo slide shows with music that are about 4:30 minutes or longer are all ending pre-maturely and not returning to the menu. I have to re-open the DVD every time this happens. I have about 60 slide shows and maybe a 1/3 of them are longer like this. Is there a maximum length for photo slide shows?? I would have thought that if I made them too long, the program would have told me that. I still have extra space still on the DVD (not much though).
I've had crashes and troubleshooting, had to completely re-do the project once already... it's been more than I can really take. I have been working on this project (collecting photos and such) for almost a year now!!
PLEASE, can someone help me?

I forgot to mention that the slideshows would play to completion fine on my mac last night before burning... but I have not had a chance to try the burned DVD on the mac, but I'm pretty sure it was a burning problem.

HI,
the problem is delimited data defaults to char(255)..... Very helpful I know.....
what you need to two is tell sqlldr hat the data is longer than this.
so change notes to notes char(4000) in you control file and it should work.

Hi,
Setting row and height is for layout purposes and not for the limiting of text in a TextEdit UI Element.
To ensure that the Text Exit has only 40 characters in 04s - you can do as Alka has suggested.
For doing the same in CE 7.1 - you can use the onChange Action and write code inside that method to limit the number of characters.
I would suggest that you use IWDMessageManager to show a message in the MessageTray whenever the user goes over the limit of 40 characters - rather than accept the whole text and then show some sort of popup.
Thanks.

Lax validation errors on schema import ('version' exceeds maximum length)

I have a schema as per below. I'm trying to import it into Oracle 10.2.0.2.0. However, I'm getting the following lax validation error:
Error loading ora_business_rule.xsd:ORA-30951: Element or attribute at Xpath /schema[@version] exceeds maximum length
I can fix it by modifying the attribute and shortening it but I'd like to know why it's occuring. Insofar as I can tell there is no imposed limit on the size of schema attributes according to the W3C standard. Which then makes me wonder: does Oracle impose limits on the length of all attributes or is this specific to 'version' ? If there is a limit, what is the upper bound (in bytes) ? Where is this documented?
Cheers,
Daniel

SDO_ORDINATES.X.Field in data file exceeds maximum length

Hi All,
While loading data in .SHP file into oracle spatial through SHP2SDO tool following error message appears:
Error message:
Record 54284: Rejected - Error on table GEO_PARCEL_CENTROID, column CENTROID_GEOM.SDO_ORDINATES.X.
Field in data file exceeds maximum length.
I read some where this is due to the SQL * Loader takes default column value to 255 characters. But there is confusion to me how to change the column size in control file because it is object data type. I am not sure this is correct or not.
The control file show as below:
LOAD DATA
INFILE geo_parcel_centroid.dat
TRUNCATE
CONTINUEIF NEXT(1:1) = '#'
INTO TABLE GEO_PARCEL_CENTROID
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
TRAILING NULLCOLS (
CENTROID_ID INTEGER EXTERNAL,
APN_NUMBER      NULLIF APN_NUMBER = BLANKS,
PROPERTY_A      NULLIF PROPERTY_A = BLANKS,
PROPERTY_C      NULLIF PROPERTY_C = BLANKS,
OWNER_NAME      NULLIF OWNER_NAME = BLANKS,
THOMAS_GRI      NULLIF THOMAS_GRI = BLANKS,
MAIL_ADDRE      NULLIF MAIL_ADDRE = BLANKS,
MAIL_CITY_      NULLIF MAIL_CITY_ = BLANKS,
MSLINK,

CENTROID_GEOM COLUMN OBJECT
SDO_GTYPE INTEGER EXTERNAL,
SDO_ELEM_INFO VARRAY TERMINATED BY '|/'
(X FLOAT EXTERNAL),
SDO_ORDINATES VARRAY TERMINATED BY '|/'
(X FLOAT EXTERNAL)
Any help on this would appreciate.
Thanks,

Hi Toni,
Thanks for the reply.
Do you mean this?
CREATE TABLE "TEST"."TEST_TAB"
    "STR" VARCHAR2(4001),
    "STR2" VARCHAR2(4001),
    "STR3" VARCHAR2(4001)
);However this does not work as the error would be:
Error at Command Line:8 Column:20
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-00910: specified length too long for its datatype
00910. 00000 - "specified length too long for its datatype"
*Cause:    for datatypes CHAR and RAW, the length specified was > 2000;
           otherwise, the length specified was > 4000.
*Action:   use a shorter length or switch to a datatype permitting a
           longer length such as a VARCHAR2, LONG CHAR, or LONG RAW*009*
