Need more than 90 minutes of continual video

,Need more than 90 minutes of continual video? Hi all,
I'm using the Vado HD [first gen] as a "hidden cam" type of thing for a play that I am filming. I have 2 normal cameras set out in the audience, but I want to mount the Vado HD above the stage for a bird's eye view of a sword fight scene that I can cut to when editing footage. The problem is that the fight scene happens near the end of the play and there are no intermissions.
Since the filesystem used on the Vado HD is FAT and not NTFS or HFS+, I run into the 4GB limit and the camera simply puts itself to sleep about 45 minutes into recording even though there is more space on the dri've and the battery is fine.
Can I reformat the Vado HD with HFS+ or NTFS? [i use a Mac but can run windows via VMware Fusion if need be]. Is there any way to squeeze 90 minutes of video in one file on this camera? If I reformat the camera, will it mess it up? [i don't use any of the apps that were installed on the camera - i moved them from the vid camera to my laptop actually, so i don't care about losing anything valuable on the vid camera].
Thanks for any tips you might have!

Could the reason be that you are capturing to an FAT32 format hard drive and it is only allowing you a limited maximum file size? Not sure but I think it is 4GB which would equate to 1/3 of a DV 13GB hour ...or about 20 minutes.
If that is correct, and you should be able to tell because the capture window will display the file size limit as space available during capture, you could do one of two things:
* reformat the drive as NTFS which removes the file size limitation (I have just done this on an external drive for exactly the same reason), but do look up online instructions for this and do it carefully.
* if the material is not long continuous shots of over 20 minutes, switch on Scene Detect during capture; it's wise to cut material up into smaller chunks in any case as huge files become very unwieldy and handling them could slow your machine right down.

  • PS CC Says I need more than 512 Vram ...

    I was using Photoshop last night just to prep a couple of photos for class submission (3 pictures, just reducing their size for web consumption), and I got the message stating that I needed more than 512 Megs of Vram, which was odd to me, as I have 1024 Dedicated available on my video card. I don't run a dual monitor setup any longer, but I do have an ASUS PBs278 that's running at 2560 X 1440. My current graphics card is an ATI Radeon 6800 HD, and my windows 7 system is running on 8 gigs of ram. Up till within the last week, CC has worked just fine, but the other day on boot, it took an unusually long time to get into the software. It eventually did, and I'm wondering if that was an update or some such that's now made the software decree that if it doesn't have the 512 it thinks it should have, the 3d functions won't happen. I don't know if it's a consequence of the larger quantity of pixels being pushed, or if it's the video card getting too old to support CC at such a high resolution now, but some help would be amazing.

    Windows 7, 64 bit. I haven't been able to replicate the error, but I have the new drivers as well. I hope this just ends up being a fluke.

  • In Imovie '11, how can I drag more than one set of video clips to my project?

    In  Imovie '11, how can I drag more than one set of video clips into my project.  I know how to highlight in yellow and drag the set, but can I drag a group of sets?  Thanks

    To select multiple clips, hold down the command key as you click multiple clips. Then you can drag them all at once.
    To drag all clips at once, select one, then Edit/Select All. Then drag them all.

  • I need more than the maximum allowed 30 profiles - how do I change this?

    I need more than the maximum allowed 30 profiles - how do I change this? Once I reach 30 profiles and I try to add one - it just deletes one automatically thus only allowing a maximum of 30. Please help.

    You are talking about 30 Firefox Profiles on the same Windows Logon User Account?
    I never saw that as a limit myself. I had 53 Profiles at one time, although I haven't done that since Firefox 3.0. It was causing an extended launch time and I started using "remote" Profiles that weren't controlled by the Profile Manager and weren't in the '''profiles.ini''' file; launched by command line. Like this in the Target line for the desktop shortcut: <br />
    ''' "C:\Program Files\Firefox_4.0_zip\firefox.exe" -Profile D:\Mozilla\Active-Profiles\4.0_10-15-10-N '''

  • NEED more than 15 menu item in Context Menu ????

    Hi,
    I really need to have more than 15 menu item displayed on Context Menu. I desperately need some workaround or ideas to achieve this
    My client has invested thousands of dollar in Flex Project, he definitely need more than 15 menu item.If this project failed , client will NEVER think to invest in flex.
    Had I been  aware of this limitation before I would have thought some solution by now.This comes as a surprise to me at the last moment ,just fews days before Prod Date.
    I cant also user java Scrip heck  as my Flex application is running inside Dot net Container , I do not access to the luxury of java script
    Pls gents help me get rid of this ...PLEASE provide some ideas.
    Thanks in advance.
    Thanks,
    Dharmendra

    Thanks Natasha,
    I got your point  but as for as I  know grouping like Quality is not possibel in Flax Context menu. I also cant go for window style menu(file,edit) because I need them to be displyed on DataGrid right clk . I am designing a trade datagrid where in trader can see all trades and he can approve/reject etc by just right clk and  selcting proper menu item form Context Menu.
    In case of window style (acrobat.com) menu trader will have to reach to  menu instead of  getting all options on mouse right clk
    I will have to think other alternative wich provides same ease as cotext menu.(God knows what is that )
    Once again thanks for suggestion.

    Hi, does your MacBook have Firewire, or just USB?
    FW is far faster if you have that.
    Avoid Bus powered ones.

  • Why do we need more than one retained earnings accounts & what is the use?

    Hi FI Experts,
    Why do we need more than one retained earnings accounts, what is the precise use of two?
    I know the retained earnings account is used to carry forward the balances during the year end to the balance sheet and there by making the p&L A/cs balances as zero.
    I guess the second one is used for different valueations for example  as depreciation accounts for different valuations will have different retained earnings accounts.
    Kindly correct me if I am wrong and eloborate on the use having more than one retained earnings accounts.
    with regards
    Ramesh Y

    Hi,
    Well, separate retained earnings accounts are used for parallel financial reporting, it means when you need to report in accordance with, for example, local GAAP and IFRS or US GAAP at the same time. Several retained earnings accounts  are necessary when the company chooses account based approach for parallel reporting. (GL accounts are broken down into several groups, for example you use different accounts for IFRS valuation, for local GAAP and they are also shared accounts common for both principles.)

  • Business graphics need more than one category

    Dear All,
         We have a issue for business graphics need more than one category about web dynpro abap.
       Our data:
       plant   month   qty
      1000   201101  10
      1000   201102  30
      2000   201101  30
      2000  201103   40
    Now we need one category for "plant" and other category  for "month", Data is qty.

    Hello Bill,
    could you explain bit more about your requirement? How would you like the graph to be renderded with two categories. Can't you club Plant and Month into one single category (1000-201101) and display it?
    BR, Saravanan

  • Firefox is the only browser that need more than 700 ms accesstime, when others need only 10! Why is that???

    I have tested Google Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer. Firefox is using between 500-1100 ms accesstime, using Bredbandskollen.se, while the other two only uses around 10 ms!

    First of all, thank you for your response.
    Below you can find the answers to your questions:
    1) YES, I am using version 4, build 0024.00. Forgot to mention that I use Windows 7 64-bit and Firefox 11 (I don't use Chrome or IE)
    2) I cannot confirm that, because the problem doesn't appear every time. For example, today EVERYTHING works OK! I haven't change anything or done something different, but since I boot my T410s, every site log in with ONLY one swipe (today even Yahoo for the first time). As I said, SOMETIMES PWM asks for one swipe, other for 2 and rarely for 3 swipes. But I think that when the problem appears, PWM need more than one fingerprint swipe every time I go to the website.
    3) The setting for "before logging me into a Web site or application..." is "Every time". As I said, I need this setting to be "Every time", as my notebook sometimes is being used by other persons.
    It is really a stange problem and when it appears it is very annoying. Have you any other ideas about what it's going on?

  • Why do I need more than 1 disk on a NLE system?

    This question is often asked and a lot of people still think they can get away with a single disk or maybe 2 disks for a video editing system.
    It would be relatively easy to tell you that a SATA disk is half duplex, so traffic can go only one way at a time, either reading or writing, and the other traffic has to wait until the first data streams have completed, before the next direction gets full attention, but that is rather technical and may not appeal to many, so let me put it to you in another way.
    Whatever you do during editng, there comes a moment when you have to export your final result, be that for the web, to BD or DVD, it does not matter, the only thing relevant is that you need to EXPORT your final results and that is where the disk(s) come into play.
    Bill Gehrke and I have been testing this extensively and let me make my final argument here.
    We have a very simple SD DV AVI timeline of three hours duration, no effects, no transitions, single track only. We exported that to SD DV AVI and wrote that file to disk. Simple, no calculations required, no effects, no transitions, no scaling, no frame blending, nothing to complicate matters further. The intent was only to show the impact of the disk setup on export times. It may not be relevant to your case, but it does show the impact of a good disk setup and as such translates to your EXPORT times equally.
    We tested with the following disk configurations:
    Harm i7-3930K, (OC) 4.7, 64 GB, GTX 680, 3 x 7 Raid3 striped to Raid30
    BillG i7-980X, (OC) 4.4, 24 GB, GTX 680, 1 x 8 Raid0 15K SCSI disks
    BillG i7-2600K, stock, 32 GB, GTX 660, single SSD, OCZ Vertex4
    BillG i7-2600K, stock, 32 GB, GTX 660, single HDD, Seagate 7200.12
    This is what we found after many test runs:
    This clearly shows the impact of disk setup on export times.
    I rest my case.

    The test is supposed to demonstrate "the impact of disk setup on export times" yet there are no changes or variations in any of the bench configurations?
    What do you mean? Your major complaint about PPBM5 was the changes or variations in configurations, something taken out of the picture.
    Why not test the most common configurations (2- or 3-drive RAID0) and vary the setup for each, e.g. break a 2-drive RAID0 and see how that impacts export times?
    For the illiterate benchmark readers,  export times are linearly related to sustained write speeds, so breaking up a 2 disk raid0 into 2 single disks will almost double export times. Breaking up a 3 disk raid0 into individual disks will almost triple export times. And what both you and Jeff forget, is that benchmark tests have to be short in duration. It is easy to make a benchmark that takes at least 30 minutes on a very fast system, but cripples an average system and will take more than 24 hours. Not very feasible, right?
    Also really curious about the alleged evil of SATA's single-duplex operation.  Any proof yet?
    SATA is not single duplex, it is half duplex. Yes, when the timeline does not fit memory and has to be read from disk and then be written to disk the penalty in export times can get as high as 40-50%.
    The point that Jeff and you seem to miss completely is that a single disk will be around 17 times slower than a fast disk setup in the best of circumstances and that will go up to around 30 times slower when fill rates increase. In this test it may not amount to much total time, what is 6 minutes, but with - as you like to put it - many short YouTube exports daily, it will add up quickly.
    Writing a 25 GB ISO file to disk for later burning to BDR will be between 17 - 30 times slower on a single disk system than on a fast disk system. If you both want to tell me that is irrelevant, go ahead and make your opinion known,
    export times are not relevant for editors... but I wonder how many would agree with you.

  • PP 2.0: can't render more than a two-hour video

    I have an AVI file (34 gig) that I'm rendering into an MPEG4 file. The original is 2 hours and 45 minutes long. However, when I render it, the MPEG4 version truncates at roughly 1 hour and 55 minutes in.
    I have no idea why this happens: I've specified rendering the full project (it's just the one clip), and specifying a work area that's 2h50m long.
    I _suspect_ that it may be disk space; the original AVI is 34 gig, I have about 26 gig free on the hard drive, and the final MPEG4 can't be more than six gig or so. And Premiere doesn't give me any "out of disk space" errors. So I'm stumped.

    I have about 26 gig free on the hard drive
    I'd definitely say that Harm is right on this one. Besides the MPEG file, PrPro needs to create some working files too. Actually, if you are going to a muxed file, it will also do yours as two files (Audio & Video) and then "join" them for the final.
    You need much more space, than just for your resultant file.
    I use externals for portability between machines. For me, the FW-800's work well, and I have their drive letters set in the OS of each machine. Though not the ideal setup for speed, and ease of editing, I have each Project contained, with Scratch Disks on the external. Again, to stress, this is NOT the ideal allocation of HDD's for editing, but allows me to whisk an external upstairs, and all is contained. I live with the performance hit incurred with this scheme.
    I do agree with Harm also on the eSATA 7200RPM. To use FW-800, you'll incur about the same expenses, as the eSATA, and it WILL be better and faster. I have tried FW-400 HDD's, and found them to be so horribly slow. I could not stand the wait, so relegated those to archival storage only. Still, if one gets your Project done (just be very patient), the FW-400 should work. I found earlier on that USB just had too many issues, as well as slowness. I would strongly recommend against going USB, if at all possible.
    Good luck, and start shopping for two more internals. They are getting cheaper by the week.

  • Dear Adobe:  We need more "Data Centric" examples and videos

    Many of my data centric questions are unanswered (for days now).  This tells me that no one in the community knows the answers, which is probably because FlashBuilder 4 and using it against a ColdFusionBuilder 1 server are still so "new".  My customers are not impressed with bandwith sucking flashing, flipping, popping, spinning effects, with help hints. That's "kid stuff".  They only want and care about lightning fast response time, tons of data at their fingertips, and reliability.  They'll add their own images and suffer the bandwidth downside if they choose, but that's up to them.  The things I need to know how to do are very very simple:
    1) Fetch data, into a grid or form (nailed, thanks for the video and examples)
    2) Commit data  changed in the form or grid back to the DB (Not answered)
    3) Create a new record from within the form or grid  (Huh? No video or examples)
    4) Create new form popup windows based on a record selected in a grid (Got it, working good)
    5) Refresh a row in a grid without mucking around with the user's selected row or indexed column (How? Unknown)
    6) Delete a record in a form or a grid and commit the delete to the back end (Again, unknown)
    Basically I need to know CRUD.  Create, Retrieve, Update, Delete
    I'm really struggling with getting the answers to these simple questions. The helps are GREATLY DETAILED but the other side of that same coin is that they give me information overload explaining all the things that CAN be done, when I just need to know the CRUD basics.  Please make some more videos showing CRUD.  FlashBuilder and ColdFusionBuilder are going to be serious candidates for massive data handling only if we can get developers onto this product quickly.
    Massive Data Handling = 200 Tables, 200 fields in each table, 200 indexes, 500 constraints, one third of a billion records total in all tables, and I want to find a specific 4 records, in no more than 4 mouse clicks, and response time of 2 seconds or less.
    Unless I'm being unreasonable, and Adobe products are not the way I should go to achieve these goals.

    Hi Mayank,
    These instructions look fantastic.  They cover the stuff I need to know how to do.   I appreciate your efforts VERY MUCH and am following along dilegently.  I'm trying to transpose your very good and detailed instructions into my own project.   I'm stuck on the following line:
    In your example:
    productService.serviceControl.autoCommit = false;
    I'm transposing it to my project, which should read:
    baa_data_svc.serviceControl.autoCommit = false;
    Because I have a <Declarations> tag of:
        <fx:Declarations>
            <valueObjects:BAA_SBJ id="bAA_SBJ"/>
            <s:CallResponder id="getSBJsResult"/>
            <baa_data_svc:Baa_data_svc
                id="baa_data_svc"
                fault="Alert.show(event.fault.faultString + '\n' + event.fault.faultDetail)"
                showBusyCursor="true"/>
        </fx:Declarations>
    When I try to run the project, I get the following error:
    Error: Cannot assign operations into an RPC Service (autoCommit)
    I have tried including and excluding the import:
    import mx.rpc.events.ResultEvent;
    but it makes no difference.
    What am I doing wrong?  I need the autoCommit to be shut off, just like in your example.
    Thanks for your kind help in this matter.

  • Why does it need more than one click to follow a link on my friend's laptop?

    I sometimes uses my friend's laptop when in room.
    but when I use the laptop, I always have to click numerous times before it follows the clicked link.
    On facebook, google, yahoo.. just everything as long as it is a web page.
    But it does not happened when I use my pc in the office. so it must be the laptop..
    any setting needed? I tried to reinstall FF 3.6.15 and windows xp professional sp.2 but nothing solve the problem.
    Like following the email confirmation link from this forum as I register, I need to open and close new tab more than 7x before it says 'email confirmed'.
    Please help...

    It isn't, something has gone awry. Hold the power button for about 10 seconds to perform a forced shutdown. Then restart as normal. When you turn to the System Preferences, Users and Groups tab you will probably find that the account was deleted. But it may not be. If you chose the option to delete the user's folder, make sure that it is indeed deleted. It will probably be a good idea to start in recovery mode - restart holding the command R key - and use Disk Utility to repair the hard drive, just in case.
