Maximum Movie Length

How do I know how long a movie I can make in iMovie09 so it will fit on a single sided DVD made in iDVD?

120 minutes incl. menus etc.
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)
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 abo
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.

  • Is there a maximum movie length?

    Mine is 2 hrs 43 mins - maybe that is why I cannot publish?

    While this is no real answer, if you do a search on publishing long movie, you will find others having the same problem with long movies

  • Movie length and dual layer burning - please help!

    I just posted this question in the iMovie forums but thought it might be more appropriate here:
    Hi everyone,
    I've just finished my first iMovie project, and the total movie length is 2hours, 31 minutes. I've noticed from a few other posts that people say the maximum movie length that iMovie can export or that will fit on a dvd is 120 minutes.
    I do however have a dual layer dvd burner on my iMac - does this mean I will be able to export/share my iMovie project to iDVD and fit the whole movie on an 8gb dual layer disc? if so, could someone please give me some advice on the best way to go about doing it?
    I'm relatively new to Macs and haven't burnt a dual layer dvd yet. I'm sure that I've burnt projects of this length before on a single layer dvd using Premiere Pro and Adobe Encore DVD, but I suppose iDVD must have its own length limitations on what can fit on a single layer disc.
    Anyway I hope someone out there can answer my question,
    thanks!

    Welcome to the Discussions Art,
    If you use System Profiler (Apple logo/About This Mac/More Info...) and see that the burner is supported like here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301556
    Then when you are in iDVD the Status window should look like shown here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301557
    You can make a 4 hr DVD if you set the encoder preference to Quality (limited to 2 hr if on Performance), your set!

  • General movie length vs. preset suggestions

    Generally speaking, can anyone give maximum movie length based on the 4 (or is it 5) presets available in Encore?
    In other words, if I transcode at preset VBR 8MB and default sound, the movie length shouldn't exceed (blank) hours.
    I realize these would be approx. with menus and other items added but I'm strickly looking for movie length maximums at a given transcode preset. Thank you!

    For MPEG-1 Layer II audio it would be the same, assuming that you are using a bit rate of 192Kb/s (which is roughly 0.2MB/s).
    The quick and dirty method (600 divided by [video plus audio bit rate]) is my own invention. :p If you want a very precise method check Neil's
    An Alternative Bit Budgeting Method
    There are several online bit budget calculators. E.g.:

  • "Maximum Session Length in Seconds" Not Working In Apex 3.2

    Hello.
    I am using Apex 3.2 and have noticed that pages are session timing out after just 10 minutes of inactivity. I am aware of the new security attributes "Maximum Session Length in Seconds" and "Maximum Session Idle Time in Seconds".
    I asked our Apex admin and he reported that these attributes are set to 8 hours on the instance level. Within my own Apex application, these two attributes are not set at all. According to the popup help window associated
    with these attributes, if they are not set, then there is no timeout at all that is enforced.
    So, does anyone know why my application pages are session timing out after just 10 minutes of inactivity and users are forced to login again?
    Thank you.
    Elie

    Scott,
    Thank you for your help on this.
    I've uploaded my Apex app called "Online Model", App ID 62063 in my workspace EEG on the Oracle hosted site apex.oracle.com.
    Workspace = EEG
    Username = [email protected]
    Password = galaxy (I'll change the password after you're done helping me)
    Orginally, this app had "Database Authentication" set. I changed this to "DAD Authentication" so that you can simply run it without having to login.
    If I open up the app in developer mode and simply leave it alone for, say, 30 minutes and then click on the "developer bar" to see the definition of one of the pages, Apex instead prompts me to re-login again into Apex. I've not placed any values in any of the "Session Timeout" fields on any of the pages in this app.
    When the same app is run as a user (that is, no "developer bar" appears at bottom of pages), again the page will time out after about 30 minutes of in-activity.
    And as mentioned in my original posting, our Apex Admin has the "Administrator Timeout Session" field set to 8 hours.
    The Apex 3.2 docs say that if no value is placed in these Timeout Session fields, then there is no timeout imposed.
    Thank you for your help. It's much appreciated.

    As a second guess, the terminator changes or goes missing at some point in the data file. If you are running on *NIX, try wc -l data_file_name.  This will give a count of the number of lines (delimited by CHR(10) ) that are in the file.  If this is not close to the number you expected, then that is your problem.
    You could also try gradually working through the data file loading 100 records, then 200, then 300 etc. to see where it starts to fail.

  • Maximum record length in internal table?

    Is there a maximum record length in an internal table?  Please note:  My question is NOT related to table space.  I'm referring only to the length of an individual record (A.K.A. row length).
    I am using a work area to insert data into an internal table.  Both the work area and internal table are defined by the same structure.
    The structure has a total length of 672 bytes.  For the sake of this discussion I'll point out that at the end of the structure, bytes 669, 670, 671, and 672 are four separate fields of 1 character each.
    When viewing the work area record in the debugger I'm seeing all the fields and all the values.  When viewing the internal table in the debugger after a record is inserted, the internal table ends with the field defined at Byte 670.  The internal table does not include the two fields defined at Bytes 671 and 672.
    Am I to assume from the above explanation that the length of a record ( A.K.A. row) in an internal table cannot exceed 670 bytes?
    Thank you.

    Manish,
    False alarm!  While, technically, you didn't answer my question, your request for code ended up helping me answer my own question.
    To provide you with some code I wrote a simple test program using the record layout referred to above, with a DO loop to put some records into the internal table, followed by a LOOP AT, with accompanying WRITE statements to display the contents of the internal table and demonstrate that the last two fields weren't being stored.
    However, when I ran the test program, the last two fields were being displayed.
    It was at that point, when stepping through the debugger that I noticed the scroll arrows above the last column of my internal table that allowed me to scroll to the right and see my final two fields.
    Apparently, because of the large number of fields in my internal table I had reached the default display length of the debugger.  While I was obviously aware of the scroll bar found at the bottom of the display, I had never worked with an internal table of that width in the past and hadn't even noticed the scroll arrows above the last column before.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond helping me get to the solution.

  • SQL Azure Reporting - There was an exception running the extensions specified in the config file. --- Maximum request length exceeded.

    I am trying to deploy an RDL file (5MB) to SQL Azure Reporting server in South Central US using the deploy function in SQL Server Data Tools but facing the following error during deployment to Azure Reporting server.
    "There was an exception running the extensions specified in the config file. ---> Maximum request length exceeded."
    Is there any limit on the size of RDL files which can be deployed to Azure Reporting server? I have seen some online posts which talk about increasing the maxRequestLength in httpruntime of web.config in Reporting server. But in case of Azure Reporting server
    how can be make modification to this configuration?
    I have tried to upload it directly to SQL Azure Reporting server from the Management Portal --> Upload Report function which still resulted in error.
    Thanks & Regards, Deep

    Thanks for your question. Unfortunately we are in the process of deprecating SQL Reporting services.  Full details are available at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg430130.aspx

  • Maximum cable lengths for USB / FW / DVI & sVGA?

    I've hunted around on the net and can't find any kind of definitive answer regarding maximum cable lengths for USB, Firewire 400/800 and DVI / sVGA monitors. Can anyone shed some light?
    I'm about to shift my studio into a new room, and have the oppourtunity to stick my G5 and external drives into a corridor cupboard adjacent to where my studio is - in other words, noise free bliss! But....
    ...if I map out how far my computer monitors, keyboard and audio interface will be from the cupboard, and take into account the twists and turns involved in neat routing, I'm looking at a distance of about 10 meters. I need to know if any of these devices will be OK with such a long run of cable, and if not, if it's possible to achieve a good result using hubs or repeaters?
    So, can anyone help me out with info on:
    an Apogee Ensemble (Firewire 400)
    an Apple keyboard (USB 2.0)
    an LCD flatscreen (DVI)
    and another LCD flatscreen (sVGA)
    Many thanks!

    I was just researching the very same thing, though it does not  sound like my studio setup will be as sweet as yours. Here are a few things I ran across:
    FIREWIRE-
    "The maximum cable length specified by the IEEE1394 standard is 4.5 meters. However, more recent tests have shown that certain high quality firewire cables can achieve longer lengths without significantly affecting transmission quality. Several manufacturers sell firewire cables longer than 5 meters (some up to 50 meters)."
    ~http://www.focusrite.com/answerbase/article.php?id=206
    I found an example of a company who claims to sell a firewire cable of that length:
    http://www.expansys.com/pf.aspx?i=102956
    USB-
    There is forum discussion on the topic I was reading yesterday:
    http://www.everythingusb.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=804
    But don't go past the 11th post or so, they go off on another subject... the use of hubs & the words "active extension" in that post caught my eye. A quick google search came up with this site:
    http://www.everythingusb.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=804
    There were a bunch sites with devices claiming to do this.
    Finally I have this chart, which seems to support what what the articles say, without of course any other extension technology/solutions:
    http://www.extron.com/company/article.aspx?id=dedigform10
    I'm not making any claims at all about how true these sources are, I just have the same questions and decided to toss what I've been looking at into the discussion. Feel free anyone to jump in and tell me its all wrong - I'd love to hear whats right.

    Hi Nick,
    Per my understanding you got this error "Maximum request length exceeded" about your reporting services, right?
    It seems the issue is caused by the request reach the max length.
    To solve the issue, please made the changes in web.config of both the Report Server and the Report Manager:
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout = "9000" maxRequestLength=" 2097151" />
    If the solution above does not help, please post the error logs of the Report Server. The error logs will help us more about troubleshooting and also provide us details information about what actions you are doing when causing this error.
    We can get the logs from:

  • Maximum request length exceeded

    I'm trying to upload a file to mobile services .NET backend, however I'm getting the error "Maximum request length exceeded". I tried increasing the limit in web.config file, but it only worked on the local version and still throws the error when
    published to Azure.
    As far as I understand the mobile services is ignoring the web.config file. So is there any other way to increase the upload limit?

    good news.. found a fix for this.
    it's actually the same fix for file uploads that exceed the default 4mb set by IIS. however, the change needs to made to the report manager web.config file and not the report server web.config file. that's why it didn't work for me the first time.
    here is an article that talks about it http://support.softartisans.com/kbview_825.aspx
    if you have kept the default installation directory, the file you edit is:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.3\Reporting Services\ReportManager\Web.config
    Just add the maxRequestLength property here and set a size appropriate to you. Not to large to discourage DoS attacks.
    The example below is 10mb
    <httpRuntime executionTimeout="9000"  maxRequestLength="10240"/>
    hope it helps.
