Non-fluid motion playing a HD project on a Samsung Flat Panel via DVI

I'm editing a TV commercial, I have received telecine files digitized as Apple ProRes HQ, 1920x1080. I want to visualize my final product on a flat panel monitor via DVI (using my mini display port with a DVI converter). The problem is when I play the sequence I have this kind of "refresh image" issue when I have a significative panning on the shoot. I have modified the refresh rates on displays control planel, I've gotten some minors arrangements but it doesn't solves completely... Some times FCP stops and gives me the "some drop frames..." message.
How can I solve this?
Thanks in advance!

That's your problem right there. The consumer drives used in those enclosures can barely cope with DVC Pro HD at 100 Mbits.
You need faster drives in a striped RAID that connect via eSATA, or you will have to convert the files to ProRes LT for the edit and recapture just what you need at higher quality to build the finished piece for delivery.

Choppy/Non-Fluid movement on export

I am in PAL land.
I am having a problem with output of footage. I have also seen this problem on broadcast stories on the news occasionally and cannot seem to put my finger on what the issue is or what it is called.
Please see this example Video 720p on Vimeo Notice the pan is not smooth. It is choppy/jittery?? However the original footage is perfect. I thought it was an interlace problem but the footage is progressive, or rolling shutter but it is not on the original footage. So i have no idea what it is called or what it is that is causing it.
The footage is shot with a Sony HDV Handy cam in AVCHD. 1080 50p. Put on the sequence time line with those exact settings. No effects no alteration in the footage at all. I export the footage in H.264 MP4. I have tried 720p 25 & 1080 25p. They both show this non fluid/choppy pan. I can't quite work out what the cause is. I believe, from what I have read, that it is fine to edit on the time line with the original settings of 1080 50p then just export in 25p. So if that is not the cause of the issue, ? I have no idea what is.
I would love to know what causes this by an educated user. As I said, I have put up with this on many of my projects and also seen in on news clips from time to time?
Any advice on what it is and how to correct it would be greatly appreciated.

I have never seen anything like this at all. I also would try this with a mouse and see if it is related to the trackpad.

Internal dvd drive no longer plays idvd burned projects

My internal dvd drive has been acting strange lately. It will play mass produced dvds but does not play my idvd projects, which it used to do. Anyone know if cleaning will help? If so, can you recommend a cleaner for an imac dvd drive?
If cleaning won't help, am I better off going to apple and having it replaced, or simply buying a compatible external drive? If an external, any recommendations?
Thanks!

You can use any proprietary lens cleaner for a DVD/CD player, except the ones using a liquid.
When you have cleaned the Superdrive, do a bit of maintenance:
Repairing permissions is important, and should always be carried out both before and after any software installation or update.
Go to Disk Utility (this is in your Utilities Folder in your Application folder) and click on the icon of your hard disk (not the one with all the numbers).
In First Aid, click on Repair Permissions.
This only takes a minute or two in Tiger, but much longer in Leopard.

By the way, you can ignore any messages about SUID or ACL file permissions, as explained here:

If you were having any serious problems with your Mac you might as well complete the exercise by repairing your hard disk as well. You cannot do this from the same start-up disk. Reboot from your install disk (holding down the C key). Once it opens, select your language, and then go to Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select your hard disk as before and click Repair.
Once that is complete reboot again from your usual start-up disk.

Then reboot your Mac and try burning a DVD again.

Hello, can I still play Garageband 9 projects/loops in Garageband 10, and how? Thank you

Hello,
Can I still play GarageBand 9 projects/loops in GarageBand 10, and how?
Do I need to re-install iLife11 to be able to play GarageBand 9 projects/loops in 11?
Thanks in advance

GarageBand 10 needs the loops and instruments from Garageband ´09 or ´11 installed to be able to play the older projects with all sounds. Otherwise instruments and loops may be missing. If you uninstalled GarageBand completely, reinstall iLife '11 to be able to use the older instruments and loops in GarageBand 10. before you install GarageBand 10.0.
GarageBand 10. comes only with a basic set of instruments and needs to be expanded by an in-app purchase. If you have GarageBAnd '11 installed, you should be able to get the in-app purchase for free. Expanding GarageBand for Mac (v10.0) content with an in-app purchase

Has anyone had a problem with fcp x not playing back a project since installing 10.0.9 update?

Has anyone had a problem with fcp x not playing back a project since installing 10.0.9 update?

Not here; updated three systems without issues.
Can you provide more details on your system specs, the projects you're referring to, and what kind of behavior you're encountering?

Can I play my iMovie project on my hdtv via an HDMI cable and adapter?

Greetings. Wondering if I can play my iMovie project directly from my MacBook Pro to my hdtv via an hdmi cable with adapter for the MacBook? Thank you!

Hi Paul,
The sound was coming out of the laptop and not out of the tv though
Connect an audio cable from your Mac's audio out socket to the TV's audio in socket. Adapter cables often need audio to be connected separately. I had a similar problem connecting the mini display port to DVI cable, then DVI to HDMI adapter from there.

Panasonic SD5 and Sony CX7 - Fluid Motion or Stuttering?

So I am a backcountry skier and I've been looking for a new video camera and have narrowed it down to the Panasonic SD5 or Sony CX7 as these seem to fit my needs (high altitude use, cold environments, light weight, size, reliability and shock resistance) best. The problem is that I have downloaded many sample clips from various sites and many samples exhibit the same problem...motion is "stuttery" versus fluid. Keep in mind that since iMovie won't let me import the files, I must convert to Quicktime using Voltiac.
When you hook up your CX7 or SD5 directly to your HDTV, is the motion smooth, similar to a conventional camcorder? When you import the video from the camcorder to iMovie 08, how are your movies and DVDs turning out? Of course if you have any sample video posted on the web, that would be great to check out.

They shoot 60fields per second which renders fluid motion of conventional TVs, so that won't be a problem. But iMovie 08, unless you are using the high end Mac Pro with powerful graphics card, will discard one field of your 60i footage for real time performance. This will make your footage only the half temporal resolution and fast motion would look will look stuttery. In short, don't use iMove 08 for fast motion footage if you want fluid motion.

Editing Working Days/Non Working Days in the base Project Calendar PWA

Hello Experts,
I am attempting to edit working days/non working days in the base project calendar PWA 13. I receive an error message when I attempt to open the base project schedule.
I click the "edit" button under "Enterprise Calendars" page. The error message states:
"This Project Web App feature requires at least Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0" (using Chrome)
Attempting to Opening PWA in I.E. I receive a different error message stating that I need Project Professional installed on my computer and it cannot find the current project.
I have Admin rights, I have project pro, and Im able to access any project or function using PWA and Project Pro. Can you tell me what I am missing (detailed steps--kinda new to PWA)
Thanks so much.

If you allow me to jump in, I'd advice you to first open MS Project Pro and then try again.
Also check that your MS Project Pro URL account do not finish with /default.aspx.
Finally ensure that your PWA URL is in the trusted site and eventually add it to the compatibility sites.
Hope this helps,

It it the one on the right hand side of this page with the green checkmark.

Given a User, find out all Roles he plays in all Projects.

We have a Role record, which has a Project field (one), and Group (a list) field. We have a User record which has the Group (a list) field. Now given a userid (has a list of Groups), I want to find out all Roles he plays in all Projects.
How can I write the query? Obviously I am not good in SQL so please give an example. This is for Rational ClearQuest query.
Thanks
Jirong

Well, for starers you should give us your database version and some create table statements and some insert statements with some example data and then, from that example data, show us what you expect the output to be from your query.
Then we will be able to help you.

I am trying to connect my Apple TV to an older Panasonic projection TV using an HDMI to a DVI cable to the Digital IN. I cannot get any sound. Can you help?

DVI interface does't allow audio. Is there optical IN from your Panasonic TV? By then you can connect your ATV to Panasonic using optical together. It will work.

Hey everyone in Apple world!
I figured out how to fix the flashing yellow screen problem that I've been having on my MBP! Yessssss!!!
I found this super handy website with the golden answer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
I followed the instructions on this page and here's what I did:
Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.
I went through the 6 steps above twice, just to make sure I got rid of whatever stuff was holding up my bootup process. Since I did that, my MBP boots up just like normal. No flashing yellow screen anymore!!
(Note that I arrived at this solution when I first saw this page: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570?viewlocale=en_US)
Let me know if this works for you!

Not all apps support airplay.
If NBC does not support it, there is nothing to fix.

Can I play separate music content to different speakers using Airplay via the Airport Express?

Can I play separate music content to different speakers using Airplay via Airport Express?

If you mean can you simultaneously stream different audio sources to multiple speakers the answer is no. You can only stream a single source to one or more speakers.
