Problems compressing HDV into SD

Friends,
I'm converting HDV into DV wide, and I'm getting unwanted horizontal lines (like "scan" lines) in my final SD Wide movie...
I'm use a Z1 camcorder to shoot, capture it as HDV, Edit as HDV, and export as quicktime HDV 1080i60. The image is great when I watch my edited movie with the quicktime...
Then, I need to convert this movie to a SD Wide format ( 720x480, 1.2 )... When I do it in Compressor, my final m2v file has the horizontal line as mentioned before... It is more noticeable with texts, subtitles...
In Compressor I'm using the following settings:
Video Format: NTSC
Frame Rate: 29.97
Aspect Ratio: 16:9
Field Dominance: Top first
Mode: Two Pass VBR Best
Average Bit Rate: 5.5 MBPS
Maximum Bit Rate: 7.2 MBPS
Motion Estimation: Best
So, could someone please help me? Is it possible to solve this issue? Make my final SD movie with a better look?
Thanks a lot.
Marcelo

Luca, thanks for your help.
I tried thje steps that you told me... but the stimation time to render 30 seconds wwas 12 hours... I'm sure that the quality will be great, but I can not spend so much time with rendering (my main movie has 1 hour and 3 minutes)...
Also, first I tried to turn off Filters, then in frame controls I left Anti-Alias and Details Level to zero... but it was the same, about 10 hours to render 30 seconds...
I do not have a powerful computer, but it is not a turtle... It is a MacBook Pro, Intel Core 2 Dual, 2.33 GHZ, 2GB RAM...
My last test was to render the movie only with the progressive option (in the encoder tab), leaving frame control and filters tab untouched... The results for still images, as text in the menus, subtitles, were great, but when I have a scene with some moves, the quality is terrible, the motion "bumps"...
So I think that the best (or the less worse) is to render using TOP FIRST as the field dominance...
Thanks a lot for your attention and time, and if you have any new sugestion, please let me know.
Regards,
Marcelo Navarro.

  • HDV into DVD SP " Incompatible format"

    I'm having problems getting my HDV project into DVD pro. The film was shot in HDV and exported as a quicktime movie. I sent it to compressor and ended up with these specs once it compressed.
    1920x1080 codecs: H.264. integer ( Big Endian), Duration 44:41 Total bit rate 11,320
    DVD SPsays "Incompatible format". Is there anything I can do or should I convert it to SD?
    Thanks!
    Michael

    Yes, Thanks Studio X. I used the preset in compressor for HDV H.264. Since I shot this in HDV I would prefer to have the final product in HDV. It seems others are having problems importing HDV into DVD SP. I was hoping for a simple explaination Ha Ha!

  • Bringing HDV into compressor problem

    I'm having a problem compressing a HDV file straight out of FCP from my sequence... and I'm hoping someone can point me to some info for help.
    I am done editing my HDV footage, and my sequence and project are set to the correct HDV settings. Now when I export from my sequence, to Compressor, the footage is set to SD settings automatically in Compressor. I just don't get it.
    Now, if I export from FCP as a quicktime movie and create a new HDV file, then import that file into Compressor everything is cool.
    Can I avoid having to export using quicktime movie, and just go directly to Compressor.
    My final file from compressor is H264 (480x270)
    Any advise would be awesome...
    Thanks

    have had similar issues way back as exporting to COMPRESSOR from FCP TIMELINE... just locks up after a while.
    Suggest workaround with FCS 2 workflow, :
    • export as SELF CONTAINED QT movie (transient file for your work flow) - suggest PRORESS 422 - seems to run faster in COMPRESSOR rater than HDV LGOP format. (others will debate this).
    • use above to INPUT into COMPRESSOR
    • purge transient movie when transcode from compressor ok.
    works for me.

  • How to compress HDV files in the browser.

    I want to compress HDV files in the browser to DV 16/9 without having to drag them all into the timeline and combined and compress them all into one file.

    The Sony HDV X1 camera can convert your HDV footage to a variety of DV configurations. I would highly recommend this route to avoid the system performance penalties of working in native HDV. Also the camera gives you a much better HDV to DV conversion than FCP 5 (at the moment).
    The only benefit of staying HDV is if you are mastering to HD.

  • Can I delete files once I compress them into a zip file?

    I am trying to get more space in my hard drive. One of the suggestions is to compress files I don't use. Once I compress them into an archive zip file, it looks like the files are still there.  I'm thinking that I should delete the original files but am afraid to do so. What percentage space do I save when I compress?

    What percentage space do I save when I compress?
    That depends on the type of file. Files that are already compressed, such as most media files, won't get smaller, and they may get larger. Text files will compress by about half, on average, but that will probably save a negligible amount of space.
    The right solution to your problem is to move the files you don't often need to an external hard drive. That drive must be backed up along with the internal one.

  • Problem while inserting into a table which has ManyToOne relation

    Problem while inserting into a table *(Files)* which has ManyToOne relation with another table *(Folder)* involving a attribute both in primary key as well as in foreign key in JPA 1.0.
    Relevent Code
    Entities:
    public class Files implements Serializable {
    @EmbeddedId
    protected FilesPK filesPK;
    private String filename;
    @JoinColumns({
    @JoinColumn(name = "folder_id", referencedColumnName = "folder_id"),
    @JoinColumn(name = "uid", referencedColumnName = "uid", insertable = false, updatable = false)})
    @ManyToOne(optional = false)
    private Folders folders;
    public class FilesPK implements Serializable {
    private int fileId;

    @EmbeddedId
    protected FoldersPK foldersPK;
    private String folderName;
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "folders")
    private Collection<Files> filesCollection;
    @JoinColumn(name = "uid", referencedColumnName = "uid", insertable = false, updatable = false)
    @ManyToOne(optional = false)
    private Users users;
    public class FoldersPK implements Serializable {
    private int folderId;
    private int uid;
    public class Users implements Serializable {

    @GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
    private Integer uid;
    private String username;
    @OneToMany(cascade = CascadeType.ALL, mappedBy = "users")
    private Collection<Folders> foldersCollection;
    I left out @Basic & @Column annotations for sake of less code.
    EJB method
    public void insertFile(String fileName, int folderID, int uid){
    FilesPK pk = new FilesPK();
    pk.setUid(uid);
    Files file = new Files();
    file.setFilename(fileName);
    file.setFilesPK(pk);
    FoldersPK folderPk = new FoldersPK(folderID, uid);
         // My understanding that it should automatically handle folderId in files table,
    // but it is not…
    file.setFolders(em.find(Folders.class, folderPk));
    em.persist(file);
    It is giving error:
    Internal Exception: java.sql.SQLException: Field 'folderid' doesn't have a default value_
    Error Code: 1364
    Call: INSERT INTO files (filename, uid, fileid) VALUES (?, ?, ?)_
    _       bind => [hello.txt, 1, 0]_
    It is not even considering folderId while inserting into db.
    However it works fine when I add folderId variable in Files entity and changed insertFile like this:
    public void insertFile(String fileName, int folderID, int uid){
    FilesPK pk = new FilesPK();
    pk.setUid(uid);
    Files file = new Files();
    file.setFilename(fileName);
    file.setFilesPK(pk);
    file.setFolderId(folderId) // added line
    FoldersPK folderPk = new FoldersPK(folderID, uid);
    file.setFolders(em.find(Folders.class, folderPk));
    em.persist(file);
    My question is that is this behavior expected or it is a bug.
    Is it required to add "column_name" variable separately even when an entity has reference to ManyToOne mapping foreign Entity ?
    I used Mysql 5.1 for database, then generate entities using toplink, JPA 1.0, glassfish v2.1.
    I've also tested this using eclipselink and got same error.
    Please provide some pointers.
    Thanks

    Hello,
    What version of EclipseLink did you try? This looks like bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=280436 that was fixed in EclipseLink 2.0, so please try a later version.
    You can also try working around the problem by making both fields writable through the reference mapping.

  • How can I use my Mac G3 (OS 9.2.2) to make Windows disk images and compress them into Windows stuffed archives?

    I have a collection of old Windows diskettes, 800 K and 1.4 MB.  I want to make disk images (or whatever is the Windows equivalent) and compress them into Windows stuffed archives.  I want Windows users to be able to download them, expand the stuffed archives, extract the disk images, and use the softsare on old Windows computers.  I need to do the work on a Power Macintosh beige G3 Tower using OS 9.2.2.  What software can I get to do it?

    To Jan, Greetings
    Thank you for your message and for your suggestions.
    Is WinZip a Mac application that makes compressed files that can be opened on a Windows computer?  If so, then do you have any notion where I could find a version old enough to run on OS 9.2.2?
    I noticed that DropStuff 6.0, which I use on my G3 Tower, has an option to make compressed files that are self-extracting on Windows.  Do you know if that works?  I suppose that I could make such a file and then find somebody with a Windows computer to test if for me.
    Yes, I could (shudder) get an old Windows computer somewhere, learn to use it, and do the project that way.  Do you know if the old versions of Windows include disk image programs and file compression  programs?  Or, would I need to buy some old software?
    Thank you for the information about the size of the diskettes.  As you've probably noticed, I don't know very much about Windows things.
    Sincerely,
    Frontiersman

  • Problem in logging into SDM

    Hi,
    I am facing a strange problem while logging into SDM server in J2ee WebAS.

    A)
    are you able to login to Visual Admin tool?
    B)when you start the SDM GUI, one commend prompt window will open, could you let me know last few lins of that.
    1)     Access the  usr/sap/<SID>/<INSTANCE_NAME>/SDM/program directory.
    2)     Access  the this script file :
       (i)     RemoteGui.bat  (In Windows)
    C) if B) looks fine then
    I think the SDM password is wrong..

  • ABPA  code to compress table into a table of fixed-length strings

    Hi all,
    I need to compress a large, sparse table into a table of fixed-length strings in my ABAP code, and then uncompress it.  Is there a standard format or facility to do this?  I seem to remember a function that does this, but any other hints would be appreciated.
    Thank you in advance,
    Sunny

    For example, given a table like:
    Column0    Column1    Column2
    abc            C               !@#&@
                     P
    def                              $*(
    Compress it into a table consisting of one column of fixed-length strings, like:
    Column0
    0abc1C2
    !@#&@01
    P20def1
    2$*(
    ..and then uncompress it back out to the original table.

  • After i installed ios 7 in my iPhone 4s and I got problem to login into my icloud account. There is a message appear and said  "the operation couldn't be completed (com.apple.appleaccount error 403)" can you help me ? how can i fix this problem ? iPhone 4

    After i installed ios 7 in my iPhone 4s and I got problem to login into my icloud account.
    There is a message appear and said  "the operation couldn't be completed (com.apple.appleaccount error 403)"
    can you help me ? how can i fix this problem ?
    iPhone 4, iOS 7
    iPhone 4S, iOS 7, (com.apple.appleaccount error 403)"

    Error: com.apple.appleaccount error 403
    Recreate Error: On a Iphone/Ipad device that has "already" created the maximum of 3 per device Apple limit of ICloud account creation attempt to create or login to ICloud service tab in Settings. You will be presented with "com.apple.appleaccount error 403" which does not tell the laymen anything useful.
    Cause: IOS 7 reports a "best guess" error instead of detailed error explanation.
    How To Resolve Error: Find a device that has not been used to create an ICloud account the maximum 3 times and use it to create the ICloud account by logging into the Settings/ICloud tab with the Apple ID you want a ICloud account created for.
    Keep in mind this will use up one of the three lifetime allowed ICloud account creations allowed by Apple on that device.
    Also per support: If an existing account is logged into the ICloud service. A. Backup phone using iTunes on a mac/pc. B. At bottome of Settings/ICloud Delete the account "AND" all the user date from the phone. It will offer the Delete all data option. The reason for Deletion(and is why we backed up on a pc vs. the cloud) is when you create the new ICloud account it will backup all of the Device owners information to the wrong persons account.
    Once you have created the new ICloud account log into that account on device that was presenting error: "com.apple.appleaccount error 403" it should allow the ICloud login.
    Once you have verified the "device with error" is ICloud functional delete the ICloud account from the device used to seed the ICloud account and delete again all user data from cloud. Restore the recently created mac/pc Itunes locally created backup to the phone and then go to Settings/ICloud and login with the device owners Apple ID and password and verify your backup to the ICloud settings and Eureka! your done.
    It took less time to do that for me to type this lol.

  • My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook.  All software is up to date.  iTunes just gives me an error.  No problems when plugged into a PC.  Why the nonstop vibrating!?

    My iPhone won't stop vibrating when plugged into my Macbook.  All software is up to date.  iTunes just gives me an error.  No problems when plugged into a PC.  Why the nonstop vibrating!?

    When I connect it to my iMac (with up-to-date OS X Yosemite 10.9.5) - it doesn't work.
    Specifically - iTunes automatically launches, but then quickly shows a dialog window that says, "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone. This device is no longer connected."
    Meanwhile - on my iPhone - in the upper right-hand corner (where the battery life is displayed) - you can see the "plugged in" icon (lightening bolt) rapidly blinking on and off.
    In other words - it seems like, when it's plugged in - it's rapidly connecting and disconnecting (several times per second).
    If I click "OK" on that dialog window on iTunes - it instantly pops back up, and continues to do so as long as I keep the iPhone plugged in.
    I have tried all and stile did not resolve my problem. I tried to restart both devices, try different cable (I have original cable). Both devices are new and software's are update it on latest versions.
    Thanks in advance for any help!
