NEED HELP WITH CHOPPY TYPE AFTER BURNED TO DVD

I have about 20 jpgs (RGB) of just copy on a black background. I've brought those jpgs into iMovie HD and they look fine.
When I render those jpgs as a movie (basically a slideshow) to a DVD and play it back on your average television...each slide of copy on a black background, comes out horrible. Grainy, pixelated, and out of focus.
Please, I need to know if there is anything anyone has tried and had work. I feel that I've exhausted quite a few methods for executing the problem...but still nothing better.
G5   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

I don't think the problem is happening in the
"burning" of the DVD, it is happening right when I am
previewing. I can see that the text I have currently
up on screen looks great, it's fine, nothing is wrong
with the copy. But as soon as I view it before I put
it to disc, it becomes completely distorted and
choppy. Like I've imported a low res file to begin
with or something.
The preview function in iDVD should be though of as a 'for position only' function. It DOES NOT represent how the final mpg-2 compressed DVD will look.
Preparing images for DVD slideshows at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/17.html will give you some recommendations on image sizes to use.

  • Need Help with data type conversion

    Hello People,
    I am new to java, i need some help with data type conversion:
    I have variable(string) storing IP Address
    IPAddr="10.10.103.10"
    I have to call a library function which passes IP Address and does something and returns me a value.
    The problem I have is that external function call in this library excepts IP Address in form of a byte array.
    Here is the syntax for the function I am calling through my program
    int createDevice (byte[] ipAddress).
    now my problem is I don't know how to convert the string  IPAddr variable into a byte[] ipAddress to pass it through method.

    Class InetAddress has a method
    byte[]      getAddress() You can create an instance using the static method getByName() providing the IP address string as argument.

  • Need help with a problem after cloning my HD....

    I recently cloned my HD to a backup drive. I did an erase and install of Tiger on my original drive. I recently cloned everything back onto my original drive from my backup drive. Now when I go to boot up on my original drive, for the first time ever I must type a Username and Password to log on to the computer. Trouble with this is, I tried my username and password and it would not work. I double, triple, quadruple checked my spelling and tried different combinations just in case i was being stupid, NOPE. It won't let me log on to my main HD. Can anyone help with this?

    Let me get this straight. You did
    1: Cloned your original boot drive to a external - not a problem
    (did you boot from the clone to check it out?, did you use cloning software or???)
    2: You erased your original boot drive - ok no problem.
    3: You then installed Tiger on your original boot drive - ok no problem there
    4: But you cloned from your clone back onto your original, freshly installed Tiger drive?
    Why did you do this?
    Cloning copies the whole drive, all the little hidden stuff, copy protection etc.
    That's why it's called a clone.
    Did you mean to say you copied certain folders/files from the clone onto the new Tiger install on your original boot drive?
    What folders/files was these?
    You need to copy the contents of certain folders inside your User folder, not the folders themselves.
    What software did you use to clone with?

  • Needing help with crashing PhotoShop after Yosemite OS Update

    I updated to the new Yosemite OS and was using PhotoShop CS5.1, and now the program crashes after trying to open more than one photo at a time.  I have cleared all settings and updated everything I can update.  I can't revert back to my old OS because it wasn't backed up before doing so.  Is there a solution to this? 

    Chris, I was not able to help with this Yosemite CS3 problem, but I did ask for a crash report. If you have time can you go over it?

  • Need help with choppy playback on wnidows 7 browsers (Firefox/IE)

    Hi everyone,
    I am running windows 7 64-bit with Firefox 19.0 and IE 9.0. My current flash player version is 11.6.602.171.
    When I view flash videos, they play fine in a window, but as soon as I make the video full screen it becomes choppy and the sounds clicks and skips making the video unwatchable. CPU is at about 25% (so about 100% of a single core). I do not experience this issue with any other embedded videos, youtube, bluray, etc. I have the latest drivers for my video and sound cards. This problem persists on both IE and firefox.
    I have tried enabling/disabling hardware acceleration to no effect. I have also tried deleting cached data (flash player settings -> storage -> delete all). An example of a video where this problem is particularly bad is here: http://www.c-span.org/Events/Fed-Chairman-Appears-Before-House-Cmte-on-State-of-the-Econom y/10737438367-1/
    I'm at a bit of a loss, so if you could provide some tips in addition to what I have already done, that would be great. I suspect the problem is that the video is maxing out a single core and for some reason isn't making use of the rest of the CPU like other non-flash videos do. This problem persists across many flash videos but no other types of video, so I don't think it's related to any individual website, but flash itself.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Please don't link to existing guides which only contain the steps I have already outlined.
    My system specs:
    Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200
    4GB RAM
    Windows 7 64-bit professional
    Geforce 9800 GTX (driver version 314.07)
    Firefox Shockwave flash plug-in 11.6.602.171
    Arman

    I'd go ahead and enter a bug report at bugbase.adobe.com.  In the bug report, please include a copy of your system's dxdiag report, the c-span video URL, and any other information you feel is important.  It's possible there's something going on with the newest version of the nvidia driver, your gpu and flash player.  YouTube implements StageVideo, which takes advantage of the gpu acceleration.  My guess is that C-span isn't using this, so your gpu isn't be utilized fully.
    You might want to try rolling the video driver back to an earlier version to see if you can narrow something down.  The other alternative is to try using our latest 10.3 release of Flash Player to see if that helps.
    How do I revert to a previous version of Flash Player?

  • Need help with output type EDI for ERS

    All,
    I want to be able to run and ERS settlement and have the invoices created sent via EDI/XML to the supplier.   I have several questions on the set up.
    1)  I have output type ERS6 which is defined as ERS EDI.  I assume because it does not start with Z* this is SAP standard, so I shouldn't have to modify any of this.
    2)  I've added my supplier to this output type. 
    3)  I assume I need to create a partner profile for this supplier?  If so can someone tell me the message type to use?
    Is there any set up I'm missing in this process?   I've executed ERS but do not get an idoc and I'm fairly certain it's because I haven't done the partner profile set-up.
    Thanks for your help.
    Sandra

    Hi,
    You don't have to modify thise setup unless you have any customized requirement.
    You are missing partner profile setup.Carry out the setup and run MRRL tcode to create the idocs

  • Need help with DOC type web service

    hi,
    I am trying to write a simple message style ( doc type ) web service but no success so far. I have tried to search for examples but no use. I already implemented some simple RPC style web services like calculator etc and able to use them. I am more interested in the DOC type ( which sends SOAP message and receives SOAP message back). Can Anybody give me an example for implementing this type of service ( very-simple say HellowWorld ) or point me to some website . I am not able to generate the response envelope. I can write the client program which will send a SOAP Envelope to this services with one parameter NAME and the services should return Hello Name but in a SOAP envelope form. I can create a SOAP message in this Client using SOAPConnection and MessageFactory etc. Your help will be really appreciated. There is very little stuff about webservices on the internet as well on this forum.
    Thanks
    Vinod

    Hello kwilding2,
    Thanks for the quick response and pointing to some useful websites. I downloaded the code from web service essentials BUT all the examples are using SOAP RPC calls. They create a call object and call one of the service methods and a response is returned. I am little confused about this stuff. I am looking for something which returns the response in a SOAP envelope for which i think i need to use JAXM API which I already have downloaded. I have created a client which composes a SOAP envelope using SOAPConnection and other MessageFactory classes etc and can send this SOAP envelope to a web service. In return I want the web service to give the SOAP envelope.
    I have gone thru xmethods.net and picked the following stock quote request and response:
    Sample Request envelope:
    <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
    <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <ns1:getQuote xmlns:ns1="urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
    <symbol xsi:type="xsd:string">IBM</symbol>
    </ns1:getQuote>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
    </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
    Sample Response Envelope:
    <SOAP-ENV:Envelope xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
    <SOAP-ENV:Body>
    <ns1:getQuoteResponse xmlns:ns1="urn:xmethods-delayed-quotes" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
    <return xsi:type="xsd:float">133.625</return>
    </ns1:getQuoteResponse>
    </SOAP-ENV:Body>
    </SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
    I also want the things in this order. This webservice at xmethods just returns the price for a stock, so how they say it returns this Response Envelope. Is this Envelope something implied. I am getting more confused.
    any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Need help with HR_INFOTYPE_LOG_GET_DETAIL, before/after tables

    Greetings experts:
    I've searched SDN for assistance with this question before posting but haven't been able to find anything to address my specific question which is, how do I "convert" the data that is in the before and after tables returned by this FM into the appropriate structure?
    I tried concatenating all of the data in DATA1-DATA7 into a string and then using ASSIGN to CAST it into a structure of type P0167 (the particular record I was looking at in PCL4 was a change to this infotype).  I noticed, however, in debug that the data just didn't look right, i.e., the DATA1 began with BAREA but there are many other fields ahead of this in P0167 so it's no wonder when this code executed I got garbage in my data object typed as P0167.
    Any advice would be appreciated!

    Hi Jamie
    Just check that 'FIELD' table is optional/mandatory.
    Also cross-check for 'type' of Exporting/tables parameters with the parameters that you are supplying

  • Need help with error message after failed iSync: Leopard and Palm OS

    I recently upgraded to a new computer which came with Leopard installed. In my old computer, Tiger OS, all was well when syncing to my Palm device.
    I tried going from handheld to desktop with slow synch turned on in iSync and now I get this message re: failure--
    "iSync Conduit starting 9/6/08 8:21:12 AM
    Timeout waiting for Sync Engine, exiting 9/6/08 8:27:31 AM
    iSync Conduit synchronization failed
    “iSync Conduit” failed (error = #-2)"
    Any ideas--please help.

    I wish you success.
    I have an older Palm, the Zire. Once I got the most recent Palm software and chose, at least for now, to use iSync, I haven't noticed any problems.
    Since I haven't used the "T" family of Palms, I can only guess that the process is much the same as with the Zire. You can disable the MAc syncing, move your currently disabled conduits back into Palm syncing, reinstall what Palm lists as your most recent software (and make sure all of your calendar and contacts info is just as you want it), do a sync through the HotSync Manager (ignoring iCal). I'd do a restart just to clear the system. It appears there is a warning note on resetting the iSync history, so you might not want to do that but just manually clean up any inconsistencies in iCal before you try once again.
    [I actually wanted to just accept my Palm calendar so trashed my iCal calendar after some questionable syncs, but you can do an export to save the iCal calendar before you wipe it out.]
    But my impression is that to get pass the messages you initially wrote up, you'll have to ask the Palm discussions folks for help. They are very helpful.

    Place the PSU in and connect the 20 pins connector and the 4 pins connector will do.

  • Need help with FLV type SWF playback in flash movie

    Hi,
    I have three external SWF files from a client without FLA
    sources. The SWFs were done 3 years ago by someone else so there is
    no way to modify the existing SWF files. These contain no
    interactivity but may involve nested clips on the main timeline.
    They are AS1 or AS2 files so they need to be done with AS2
    scripting to keep it simple.
    I need to call these SWF files inside another flash movie and
    play them in a player window as if they were video files with
    play/pause, seekbar and volume controls. The needed functionality
    is similar to FLV players. My controls will use custom graphic
    buttons and sliders mimicking the look of CNN video player window.
    Does anyone know a good tutorial on how to script these
    controls for SWF?
    Most likely I think I will load it in a clip and I am
    thinking that I will need to get the duration of the loaded swf in
    order to set up the seekbar.
    Thanks in advance,
    Attila

    I think your professor, or somebody, gave you directions with ActionScript 2 programming. In AS2, what oyu have here would have worked just fine. But, in AS3, you need to use a fairly different approach. Your buttons, and their instance name, can remain the same. But now, in AS3, you have to add event listeners in the following manner:
    yourButtonName.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, yourListenerFunction);
    In your case, you can do one of two things - A) assign a unique listener function to each button, or B) assign the same listsner to both functions:
    A)
    start_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, startPolygon);
    stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, stopPolygon);
    function startPolygon(e:MouseEvent):void{
        polygon.play();
    function stopPolygon(e:MouseEvent):void{
        polygon.stop();
    B)
    start_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, controlPolygon);
    stop_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, controlPolygon);
    function controlPolygon(e:MouseEvent):void{
       if (e.target.name == "start_btn") {//Test for the name of the object that dispatched the CLICK event
          polygon.play();
       } else if (e.target.name == "stop_btn") {
          polygon.stop();
    When I'm using several buttons that do the same/nearly similar things, I favor approach B over A, as it keeps me to jsut one single function to deal with.

    I assume that you have added this field to the field catalog, so make sure that the name in the field catalog is exactly the same as in the internal table which holds your data, and make sure that you are filling the field name as uppercase.

  • Choppy playback after burning data dvd in toast

    Hi Ive just finished burning a copy of various short clips which I exported as a quicktime files from FCP onto my desktop then saved them as quicktime mov. through QT player which was successful enough.I then burned a copy of this QT movie in toast as a data dvd compatible for Mac & PC viewing.When I played the dvd in QT 7.4.5 the playback was choppy but the sound was fine. I then played the same disc on my G5 desktop running panther and QT 7.4.1 and it was absolutely fine.Is this process rather a roundabout way of doing things ? and what could be causing this choppy playback on my laptop?

    Data DVD's and regular movie DVD are not read in the same way. A regular movie that is being read by your DVD player app is being stream too...and the player is set up to read from a DVD that way.
    On the other hand a data DVD the data is just setting there...The DVD player can't send the video to Quicktime fast enough to play smoothly. That's why you need to copy the data DVD to the hard drive.
    It would be if you had a 1gig image on a DVD and tried to edit it with Photoshop from the DVD. Photoshop would constantly bog down trying to read from the DVD while editing the image. Same if you had video files on a DVD tried and to it them from a editing app. The editing app not getting the data fast enough making editing very slow. Sometimes the program that's trying to read the from the DVD will freeze or crash. Best to copy the data from the DVD to the hard drive.
