Record on a large screen

I have a 22-inch (1680x1050) monitor. Most of the time I want to publish my recording to a 600x800 video. So there are several approaches:
1. Record it as 1400x1050, and resize it as 600x800 after recording.
2. Record it as 600x800, and use panning.
3. Do not use the large external monitor. Use the laptop monitor to record it as 600x800.
In my situation, which one is the best?

Yes, if I record it large, and downscale it, it will be too tiny. Sometimes I use panning, but the audience will miss the bigger picture.
Therefore, I think the best way is to use a small monitor and record the simulation in 800x600 window.

Screen recording - recording part of the screen or low resolution

I want to record part of the screen in quick time x, has anybody found a way to do this?
As a work-around, I tried reducing the screen resolution to 640x480 or 800x600 but the recorder doesn't seem to pick anything up at this resolution. After recording nothing happens then when i switch back to full resolution i get the message:
*Recording failed because no data was received.*
Make sure that the media input source is turned on and playing.

I am just trying to figure out how to record a screen shot, i dont care if its full or part screen, any advice for me?
Not sure if there is any difference between OS 10.6.1 and 10.6.2, but all I did was select the "New Screen Recording" File menu option and press the record button (circle with red dot in center) to make a test recording which was automatically saved in the Movies folder when the "stop recoding" key shortcut sequence was pressed. As to SnapzProX, it is a commercial program which you can purchase. It allows fullscreen/partial screen recordings and can be set up to record a fixed area of the screen or a fixed size portion of the screen area which follows the cursor around the screen.

As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.

Do you think this product is possible?

In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

Recently got a MacBook Pro. When I use it for work purposes, I plug in a large screen and key board. When in this mode I would like to shut off the laptop screen or even close the lid. Is that possible?

RECENTLY GOT A mACKbOOK PRO. WHEN USING IT FOR WORK PURPOSES I PLUG IN A LARGE SCREEN AND KEYBOARD, THAT WORKS FINE. HOWEVER WOULD LIKE TO CLOSE LID ON THE LAPTOP, OR AT LEAST SHUT DOWN THE LAPTOP SCREEN WHILE USING THE LARGE SCREEN. IS THAT POSSIBLE?

Hi Jim,
Craig is right on with his post. Hope he won't mind if I add the following link, as recently it has been noted by some posts here that there are some "quirks" with Clamshell Mode:

Using old G5 as large screen monitor for new MacBook

Would I be able to use an old G5 as a large screen monitor for a MacBook or Mac Mini, using a VNC protocol such as ScreenRecycler (or another). If so, to what degree would the G5 OS have to be functional, i.e., if the video card and speakers are OK, but the OS is corrupted, could the G5 be used just as a monitor powered by the other device? I suspect the answer might be that it depends on what's corrupted; if so, how do I determine the G5's capability as only a monitor? Thanks!

In the traditional sense, the iMac G5 cannot be used as a "monitor" because it does not have video input.
I use ScreenRecycler. Here's how it works. Normally, if you use the built-in screen sharing feature of Mac OS X or run third-party VNC server software, you can view that Mac's screen in a window on another Mac (or any computer) using a VNC client program. That's regular screen sharing.
ScreenRecycler acts as the VNC server software, except it creates a virtual second screen and serves it to any VNC client program. You can change the resolution and arrangement of that virtual second screen using System Preferences Displays pane, as you would with any real second display. It is actually very clever.
In your case, the iMac G5 would be running the VNC client program (such as the developer's own JollysFastVNC) and displaying a window that shows that virtual second screen. When you make the program display it in full screen mode, the iMac G5 simulates a second display.
So to answer your question, the iMac G5 would need to be fully functional in terms of the OS, because it has to be running normally in order to run the VNC client program. It is not running in some special different display mode; it is operating like a normal Mac and just pretending to be the second display for another Mac. And it should work well using an iMac G5 because a wired network connection (be sure to use a Cat-5e or better cable) will be at gigabit speeds. You can try the program in limited-time demo mode for free.

To project onto a large screen

Hi, I would like to be able to project my photo slideshow on a large screen in an art gallery. What is the best way to save my file to do this. My photos are large at around 6000x4000, however they are all horizontal. The show itself is only around 8 mins long. Thanks

The information that we are going to have to coordinate
Premiere Elements 13/13.1 or Elements Organizer 13/13.1 for creating slideshow file for projecting on large screen.....
a. Premiere Elements 13/13.1 Editor Timeline content to produce the slideshow as a AVCHD.mp4 file (1920 x 1080p25), transitions, effects, no menus.
or
b. Elements Organizer 13/13.1 Slideshow Builder Slideshow with one of five possible themes for export as 720p or 1080p (AVCHD.mp4 file)...no menus.
Elements Organizer Help | Create slideshows
As far as I can tell that Elements Organizer Slideshow is only at 30 progressive frames per second. We cab discuss that later if necessary.
Either way, we need to start by knowing how many photos and the pixel dimensions and frame aspect ratio of each.
We know there will be between 90 to 100 photos. What is the pixel dimensions of each (width in pixels x height in pixels)? If the pixel dimensions are way over 1920 x 1080 16:9, then you may have to crop resize or resize them to 1920 x 1080 16:9 - depends on your computer resources and see Note.
Note: If the photos have a 3:2 or 4:3 frame aspect ratio, then you may have to crop resize to 16:9 1920 x 1080. If you have photos with 16:9 frame
aspect ratio, then you just resize. to 1920 x 1080.
If you use "a", your export will be
Publish+Share
Computer
AVCHD
with Presets = MP4 - H.264 1920 x 1080p25
If you use "b", after you build the slideshow, then you export as 720p or 1080p file to computer hard drive.
The Computer Player and the Projector
I am not sure if you will have a projector available to you or whether you will have to purchase one on your own.
Connections, resolution, etc of the protector may force the modification of the file creation. If your file has a higher resolution
than the native resolution of the project, an automatic scaling may occur for example from 1920 x 1080 to 1280 x 720. As
talked about in this older article on projector native resolution and maximum resolution.
http://www.projectorcentral.com/maximum_resolution.htm
Often you will see the recommendation to match the native resolution of the projector with the resolution of the file being
projected onto your screen...reason to avoid the automatic scaling and possibly less clear viewing.
Once we get more information on the projector, we can decide whether to go for a Premiere Elements 1280 x 720 16:9 slideshow
or 1920 x 1080 16:9 slideshow or other.
If you can do a private mini test run with the equipment that you will be using before the actual showing, good idea.
Just some thoughts for now.

Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

Can iPad Air be hooked up to AOC desktop monitor? How? We have older person in home needs larger screen. Thanks.

YYou can connect with the cables listed above or with an Apple TV device. Keep in mind that and ipad is what it is and was made to be used as it is. I can tell you first hand that what you are trying to do will likely not be of assistance since the ipad is still required as the user interface. Connecting to a larger display maybe fine for watching movies if that's what you have in mind but for overall use the ipad will still have to be used and thus looked at to type and touch. Even with a bt keyboard there are still to many limitations That only a mouse can solve along with a keyboard and display.
All said, you may be better off looking into, and perhaps using along with the bigger screen, some of the features that can be found in (general-text size) and (general accessibility) settings. Other then that, if you are not mindset on the ipad experience, there are other products on the market that are better suited and more affordable. I have provided care for my mother in law from here 80's to mid 90's. Been there, done that.

How can I get an image to stretch the length of my Website when being viewed on larger screens?

Heres an example of my site im working on HERE I would like for the image on the landing page to stretch from edge to edge as needed when being viewed on larger screens. I know it's possible because it's done here I just don't know how to do it PLEASE HELP.

To achieve a similar effect, simply use the Rectangle tool to create a horizontal bar that snaps-to-fit the browser area in Design mode. Then use the Fill options to insert an image within the rectangle; you may also want to change the Fitting option to Scale to Fill or Tile/Tile Horizontally. Refer to the following screenshot.

What are best exports settings for project that will be shown on large screen?

I'm working in AE CS6 and am preparing a two-minute video using type animations and some still cartoons and some still photography. The client will eventually show it through his computer on a large screen to a group of people. What's the best settings in the render queue to output this so it shows pristinely? I'm thinking a Quicktime movie output as Animation but I really don't know. Can anyone help? Thanks.

Animation Quicktime is NOT the way to go. This codec will only playback in real time reliably on a super computer. You need to pick a good distribution format that will stick around. PICK H.264. Read on...
If by large screen you mean a really big TV then make a standard HD 1920 X 1080 comp at 29.97 fps and render using the Adobe Meida Encoder. You can put your Animation Codec Quicktime in the AME if you like but I think there are better DI formats (Digital Intermediate). Pick h.264 as the format and pick the Vimeo or YouTube HD preset and jack the data rate up to 40 or even 50 and enable Multi Pass rendering. You will have a file that will playback smoothly on any modern system, even from a newer iPad or other tablet.
If you mean a 4K display then use the same technique but create your 4K composition using the standard 4K display size of 3640 X 2160 and use the YouTube 4K preset.
You can jack up the data rate for that preset also but don't go above 50.
This will give you a file that is technically as good or better than you would get with a fiber connection to a 4K broadcast. How the project looks when played back will depend on how good you are at choosing the right techniques for your animation and color grading taking into account the color space you're working in, the gamut of the display, and the motion of animated elements as it relates to frame rate. (Hint: that's why I said to choose 29.97 as the frame rate because animating illustrations and text to look good on a big screen is a lot more difficult at 24 fps than it is at 29.97 and you don't need 60fps because what you gain in the elimination of judder you loose in the addition of compression artifacts when the data rate is the same.)
One last piece of advice. Obsessing about the quality of your playback format to achieve the MAXIMUM result is for the most part a huge waste of time and energy. Get the color right and tell the story well and avoid juddering animations and you'll blow the audience away even at 10 or 12 Mbps HD. 90% of all quality issues in rendered animations that I've seen are issues of design and animation technique, not issues of rendering with the wrong settings.

Hey guys, question; I've produced 3min piece that is to be viewed on a large screen at a conference

Hey guys, question; I've produced a 3 minute piece that is to be viewed on a large screen at a conference of about 5,000.
Is there typically another process involved in preparing the video to be viewed in that capcity?
Thanks in advance!

I would ask the venue what their capabilities are.
If your project is HD, ask if their project accepts 1080i or p

Nikon D3 NEF thumbnails won't expand into larger screen on clicking

Help Please. When viewing the raw 14 bit files from the new Nikon D3 in Bridge we see broad black bands down two opposite sides of the thumbnails and the thumbnail will not expand to larger screen view when clicked on; they stay at thumbnail size in the larger preview window. Jpegs created at the same time have no such problem. Funny thing is that sometimes these raw files will not have the large black border bands when Bridge starts afresh but new files imported into Bridge have the problem. Older files that had the problem often are self corrected but no amount of idle time in Bridge seems to assure the correction process to work out or catch up. Very hit and miss, mostly miss. >>>Maybe not surprisingly, if an NEF file is opened in ACR and processed and closed it then works properly in Bridge afterwards.<<<
A few technical notes: Bridge v2.1.1.9, ACR 4.3.1 and CS3 v10.0.1 Images are imported through Nikon Camera Control Pro 2, v2.0.0 or Nikon Transfer v1.0 or card readers; makes no difference. When opened in CS3/ACR all files are normal.
Any thoughts on how to make these files work normally in Bridge without going into ACR first?
Thanks for your help.

Now I understand the reason for very large screen monitors

I now understand why many people want to buy the new very large screen Macs. I have always loved my 17" flatscreen iMac G4 and since the picture itself is the same and the only thing that changes is the real estate around the picture, I always felt that getting a larger monitor would be an exercise in self-indulgence.
Well, now I see that all of the surrounding real estate would be very useful for putting folders, documents, pictures, etc on the screen and having them visible and accessible. For someone making a webpage, and I imagine also for making iMovies, which I will soon do for my website, a 19" or larger screen would be VERY helpful. But when a person buys a new computer, then all of that information has to be transferred....... and that is enough to make a person stick with the 17" monitor (that and the price of a 21").

Have you tried using Exposé to make that smaller
screen more expansive? You can drag from one window
to another with an Exposé transition in between.
While not a replacement for a larger screen, it does
help when I need it.
Ken, I've had Tiger for about a week and the only things I've been working with are iWeb and iPhoto! Later I will explore Exposé. It sounds like they were trying to help us out and that's good.
