Project length limitations?

I am trying to burn a dvd with iDVD. I have 5 - 21 min (give or take a min) videos which are about 175 mb (give or take) each. iDVD tells me that this is to large for it. Toast 7 can handle 5 without a problem. Has Apple put some restrictions on iDVD 6 in terms of project length?
thanks

I tried with both, I thought I heard awhile ago, that
iDVD limits your videos to an hour, is that true?
iDVD is supposed to fit up to 2 hours of video to a DVD. After about 90 minutes the quality starts looking worse, though. Toast 7 uses AC-3 audio which provides more room for either better video quality on longer DVDs or the ability to fit more video to the DVD. Also, Toast 7 doesn't need to reserve much space as does iDVD for the menus. My opinion is that IDVD is awesome for DVDs up to 90 minutes on single-layer discs or 180 minutes on DL media.
This doesn't explain why your less than 2-hour project isn't fitting. Five 21-minute videos should fit.
You can monitor what's taking up the space in your iDVD project by choosing Project info in the Project Menu

Project length limitation in Logic Express?

I'm considering Logic Express. Playing with it on a machine at the store though, it appears that it has a 15 minute limit when recording audio? Is this a setting that can be changed somewhere, or is this really all it will record? I'm interested in using it to record my band live, and we play about 1 hour sets.
Anyone have any ideas how this could be lengthened, or is 15 minutes really it?

I Was reading about this on a blog and you should be able to up the recording time if you slow down your bpm.
15min = 120bpm
30min = 60bpm
60min = 30bpm......so on
check this guy uses logic pro, indieguitarist.com
hope this helps.

Web Service URL length limits, LV2013 vs LV2012

(* CROSS POST: http://lavag.org/topic/18435-web-service-url-length-limits-lv2013-vs-lv2012/ *)
(* Please reply in this forum. I have marked the other thread to put replies here. *)
Has anyone noticed a reduction to the limit on URL length for Web Services between LV versions 2012 and 2013?
Under LV2012, a RESTful web service appears to accept URL with lengths at least as long as 4096 characters. With LV2013, the max URL length appears to be 511 characters for both RESTful and Project Item web services. Unfortunately for me the project I just converted trips over this issue. My goal with posting this query to here is to improve my understanding of this limitation before I decide how best to modify my code. Certainly using POST rather than GET with a long URL is an option, but again, I'm looking to understand the change in limitation before I choose a solution.
To illustrate I have attached three mostly identical projects which demonstrate the issue. In each case the project contains a webservice consisting of a single VI, "ComputeLength", which takes a String as an input parameter and which outputs the length of the string. The three projects are as follows.
1. LV2012 RESTful web service.
2. LV2013 RESTful web service.
3. LV2013 Project item web service.
The web service contains a single VI. For the RESTful examples, the web service is started by selecting Deploy from the Build specification right click menu. For the Project Item example, the web service is started by selecting Start from the MyComputer/WebService right click menu. The use of this example is demonstrated with the following URL:
(note that the port is 8080 for the two RESTful examples and is 8001 for the Project item web service if used in Debug mode, which is the default for the above instruction.)
http://localhost:8080/webservice/computelength?string=1234567890
And the output looks like this.
<Response>
<Terminal>
<Name>StringLength</Name>
<Value>10</Value>
</Terminal>
</Response>
To see the issue, extend the string parameter such that the URL contains more than 511 characters beyond the port number. For example something like this, http://localhost:8080/webservice/computelength?string=1234567890123456789012345678901234567890....(keep repeating)
For the LV2012 example the string parameter may be at least as long as 4000 characters, which I've demonstrated using Chrome as my browser. For both of the LV2013 examples the URL is limited to 511 characters after the localhost and the port number.
Anyone know whether this is a bug or this is an intentional design change? How about whether the URL length limit is configurable?
I am also consulting NI tech support and will report back their response.
Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Martin

Solution found. Apparently starting in LV 2013, there is a default limit of 512 to the URL length. The default limit may be overridden as described below.
Martin
This is Brian in Applications Engineering from National Instruments. I am following up regarding the 511 character limit in your Web Service HTTP request following the port number. After some research I've figured out that the issue is related to a default web server setting called "LimitUri," which limits the maximum length of a URL. The default setting is 512 characters which is why we are seeing this issue.
There are multiple ways of changing the URL length limit depending on how you are using your web service. If you are publishing the web service using the Application Web Server then modify "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\Shared\NI WebServer\NIWebAppServer.conf" and add "LimitUri 4096" to the end of the file without the quotes.
If you are running the Debug Web Server by just clicking start on the web service then modify "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2013\resource\webserver\niwsdebugserver.conf" and add "LimitUri 4096" to the end of the file without the quotes.

Motion project length for FCPX effects templates.

When creating a Motion Effect Template for FCPX, is there a recommend project length? Is shorter better since the effect will change based on the clip length in FCPX? Or does it really matter as long as it is long enough to cover all included behaviors, etc? Thank you.

Generally the 10 second default duration works quite well.

Cannot move the Project length marker! GB 10.0.2

Hi, I'm having problems moving the project length marker in my GarageBand 10.0.2 file. I need to export 2 short tracks, and so I need to move the project length marker to the end of the short tracks before I export them. But the project length marker stops at the end of the longest track even though the track is muted out...and this means I cannot move the project length marker to the proper position. It worked fine and then it stopped working. Please help!

Then mark the section of the song that you want to export with the cycle region. The end-of-song marker does not matter, if the yellow cycle region is active. Only the cycle region will be exported.

Item number field length limitation?

A non-SAP client is presenting a business proposal to a SAP customer and what they want to know is what is the limitation on Item numbers for products for a manufacturing company running SAP ERP? No, we cannot ask the customer, yet!
I know the SAP is highly customizable but is there a field length limitation or anything else you can tell me?
Many thanks!

Are iDVD projects still limited to 2 hours?

I have spent more than an hour searching the Apple web site for the answer, with no result. So I am posting this here even though it is a very basic question.
I currently have iLife '04 including iDVD 4.0.1, which came on my eMac when I bought it in 2004. iDVD 4 allows for a maximum project length of 120 minutes, including all menus.
I am considering upgrading to iLife 06, but my real reason for upgrading would be to produce a DVD with a running time longer than 120 minutes - yet still be on a single-layer DVD which I can burn with my SuperDrive.
From what I have read, in the iDVD 5 and iDVD 6 upgrades, the 120 minute limit was unchanged. Is this still true? If I upgrade to iDVD 6, and using my SuperDrive, I will still not be able to burn a DVD with a running time longer than 120 minutes? If so, that would defeat the only compelling reason I would have to upgrade.
If that is still true, is Apple ever going to change that 120-minute limit? Other programs allow more than 120 minutes on a single DVD.
Thanks for your help.
eMac 1.25GHz, 512 Mb RAM, 80Gb HD Mac OS X (10.3.9) iDVD 4, QT 7.1.5

benchmarks are still 120min/SL, 240min/DoubleLayer media ...
(in reallife a little less.. iDVD needs a few 100MB for menus, buttons, blinkblink)
... I understand your frsutration, but, the iApps are consumer toys tools, the average Daddy-does-movies guy as me has no need for sooo much videoDVD.. (my audience usually falls asleep after 20min...)
consider Toast, which claims to 'press' more onto 4.7GB disks, ... or, maybe a workaround, have a look at
VisualHub
http://www.techspansion.com/visualhub/tryit.php
hcih claims to make up to 18 (!)h onto a disk...
... ok, probably, you'll see just a few 'Lego bricks' moving on screen..
= Apple tries to offer a max. of quality, so, 120min/dvd is... for good reasons.

E1 Cable Length Limitation

I need to know the E1 cable length limitations,in meters? Actually i've a customer who needs to extend their E1's from the basement to DataCenter Room and you people know the UTP Cable limitation. So which type of device should i refer to them for this purpose.

UTP gauge 22, typical attenuation, should cover 1000 feet ( > 300 m) without problem.
Make sure you use proper cable and respect the pair twisting, that is NOT like ethernet.

GPS Cable length limitations?

Does anyone happen to know the length limitation on the GPS cable?
I believe I received a 25 foot section of RG174 with the original unit. However, the ideal location in the warehouse would be about 100 feet from the nearest window. Would that be too long? If possible to run that far, would anyone know where to purchase a continuous length of 100 feet?

Page Length Limitation

I would like to know if there is any page length limitation in a PDF page. I was told that it is 34 inches. Is this true?

BKYCHAN wrote:
If we lower the ppi from 300 to 100, the PDF page can be bigger and longer.
Has anyone heard about the PDF page pixel limitation?
Never heard of it no.
BKYCHAN wrote:
Besides, is there way to get around the PDF viewer limitation, i.e. 200 inches X 200 inches, such as using Acrobat 9?
200" is it. I'm not sure what applications can build a document bigger than that (by much).
InDesign even has a 216x216 limit (although export to PDF only allows the 200x200 size max).

MDM number generation with length limitation

Dear experts,
I'm currently working on an MDM project, and creating a repository that will auto-generate Project Master number.
The tricky part is that the project number is alphanumeric: it is a combination of AABBCCCC.
AA = Site code (like CZ, XJ, etc)
BB = year (like 14)
CCCC = 4 digits auto ID (0001, 0002, ...., 9999)
I'm thining of using calculated fields, but I'm not sure how I can control the length of auto-id.
Any suggestions?
Thank you!
Best regards,
AZ

Hi AZ,
You can't control the length of auto-d, because its automatic generated unique integer key repersenting the count of the record in the table. The autoid is non editable and once deleted you can not get the code back for other records.
Kindly note there is no limitation for Autoid, as much records get created in the MDM table where autoid field is called,that much Autoid will get generated.
the below calculation you can use to achive your result.
Note:In the calculation field Right (Autoid,4) is holds value 4 so the autocodes will only generated till autoid9999. If you want to increase you can increment the value to 5, by that you can get the autocode till 99999.....
As you know any modification to the calculation field you require to stop the repository, to avoid this you can achieve this by using Assignment.
the below thread will explain and give you some idea regarding calling the assignment in the workflow.

Length limits of Motion?

I've been working on preparations for a rather large DVD project for a month or so now, and I have been experiencing some trouble with exporting from Motion. In total I aim to make 3 DVDs, and I have mapped out the first disc to be about 60 video tracks, 13 motion menus and about 90+ still menus... and thus far my plan has been to export these all from Motion.
About half of the clips I need to make are between 1 and 2 min, and those are working just fine ( aside from client style choices... grrr). But the other half of the clips range from 3 min to as long as 15 min. When I try to export these they fail overnight and result in a file I can't open anywhere (I've sent Apple a lot of error reports lately). Last night an export 'died' rather than failing? Er... well... the resulting file was viewable, but it ended early and the last few frames looked like this:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/12765641@N08/sets/72157624426471397
Just recently I upgraded the graphics card in my Mac Pro from a standard 'NVIDIA GeForce GT 120' to the 'ATI Radeon HD 4870' (as far as I could tell in my research the best card currently available for Motion, best being very near the speed of and less bugie than Nvidia's Quadro FX 4800). Preview frame rates and estimated render times are much improved, but the same renders are crashing overnight...
I am currently considering upgrading the amount of RAM in the machine from 6Gb to 12 or 16 or ? But I found this post and was looking for further insight...
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=635107
"20 minutes! Holy Frijole! Motion is not made for something this huge. Motion loads everything into memory. 20 x 60 x 30 = 36,000 megabytes - or 36 gigabytes."
Please explain 20(min?) x 60(sec?) x 30(fps?)? is 1 Mb pr frame an actual metric for Motion? so at 6Gb of RAM I should be able to export a 3:30 length clip? (this seems consistent with my lengths of failed and successful exports thus far)
Is there an 'Apple suggested' or 'community known' length recommendation for a Motion Project? If so, does the content complexity or resolution of a project affect this length? (I'm creating the whole thing HD for possible future Blu-Ray authoring, but this project in it's current form will go to standard definition DVD)
Why do I want to export 15 min clips from motion in the first place? My project is a 'Video Textbook' with multiple ways to traverse the content (thus the ridiculous number of menus and tracks). There are 3 components to pretty much every frame in the project. Video or animated still images on the left, text fading in and out on the right summarizing some of the dialogue or Voice over and verbatim transcript for other parts, and at the bottom of the frame a timeline showing the user where they are, progress wise, at all times on the disc. The video I have been given is all poorly shot Green Screen footage, some of it I have been able to squeeze a Key out of, but with a good chunk of it I am just conceding defeat and making it look like a white room on an old TV screen...(Re-Shoot has been begged and pleaded for...) Essentially all the video content have motion effects applied to them, the amount of text would be far to un-wieldy for Final Cut, and the Timeline is all built in Motion as well... far as I can tell, everything capital 'N' need's motion, is there a better way?
....I have conceded at this point that I will probably just have to make some changes to my proposed workflow for this project... But regarding which changes to make, would it help to export each of my three parts individually and then combine them in Final Cut or will the lengths of segments still kill motion even at much less complexity? Or is it the case that I should just export everything in chunks no bigger than 3 min? How else could I get this stuff exported?
Running Motion 4.0.2 and FCP 7.0.2
Any ideas, thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Custom Infotype length limitation

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a custom infotype in ECC 6.0 with a table control which can have a maximum of 50 line items. Something similar to basic pay infotype and PA0008. While going through the SAP documentation I found the below statement .
"A new infotype is limited to a maximum of 1000 positions. This restriction is due of the length of structure PRELP, which is used as a container during infotype processing."
This is available at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60/helpdata/en/60/d8d8c7576311d189270000e8322f96/frameset.htm
In our implementation, each record of standard table PA0008 could go upto 1200 characters with a maximum of 40 line items in the table control. We never used more than 5 line items and never had any problem.
Since the custom table control can have upto 50 line items, each record of my custom table pa9xxxx could go upto 4000 characters and I'm concerned that if this is going to be an issue. Any suggestions in this regard please ?
Thanks for your time,
Kumar.

Hi Venkata
Please see notes 563145 and 1168062 for help
Please also be aware that custom infotypes and the effects of changing structures are the customers responsibility

Font name length limitation...

Hello all,
I have a serious problem related with .PFB font files. Is there any relation between font name length; I checked and if font name length is more than 30 characters I am getting an error that "the requested file C:\....\....Pfm,C:\....\....Pfb was not a valid font file". Although I am using the same way to install all fonts.
Please help me and give me any solution. Please let me know if there any limitation with windows XP, or its a limitation of Type 1 fonts.
Thanks in advance and pardon my English.
Thanks........

I believe the answer is "both" for practical purposes. Although, my recollection would have been that the limit was 31 characters, not 30.

Query Rules - length limitation on query conditions set via powershell

My current client has 200 custom keywords in SP 2010 which they would like to migrate to SP 2013 query results. I have powershell scripts to perform the export from SP 2010 and import into one of three SP 2013 environments.
One limitation I have found in powershell -- that does not happen in the search service application UI! -- is a 100 character length limit on the keywords used for matching query conditions (synonym data in SP 2010). The keywords can be set through
the UI without limitation but are limited to 100 characters when using powershell! It makes no sense!
I suppose my final update could be done by hand (ugh!) and I would much rather be able to script these updates.
Any pointers or help?

Hi grobinson,
If you used this code line in your Powershell and have the following error:
[string[]]$QueryRuleTerms=@($QueryRuleConditionTerm)
Exception calling "CreateKeywordCondition" with "2" argument(s): "The value must be at most 100 characters long.

You need to use the following code line with Split() method to add the multiple terms, it will work.
$QueryRuleConditionTerm = "a1;a10;a100;a101;a102;a103;a104;a105;a106;a11;a12;a13;a14;a15;a16;a17;a18;a19;a2;a20;a21;a22;a23;a24;a25;a26;a27;a28;a29;a3;a30;a31;a32;a33;a34;a35;a36;a37;a38;a39;a4;a40;a41;a42;a43;a44;a45;a46;a47;a48;a49;a5;a50;a51;a52;a53;a54;a55;a56;a57;a58;a59;a6;a60;a61;a62;a63;a64;a65;a66;a67;a68;a69;a7;a70;a71;a72;a73;a74;a75;a76;a77;a78;a79;a8;a80;a81;a82;a83;a84;a85;a86;a87;a88;a89;a9;a90;a91;a92;a93;a94;a95;a96;a97;a98;a99;a991"
#use the following codeline, it worked for me
[string[]] $QueryRuleTerms = $QueryRuleConditionTerm.Split(";")
$QueryRuleConditions = $QueryRule.QueryConditions
$QueryRuleCondition = $QueryRuleConditions.CreateKeywordCondition($QueryRuleTerms,$true)
$QuerySourceContextCondition = $QueryRule.CreateSourceContextCondition($ResultSource)
$QueryRule.Update()
