Scanning a 35 mm slide - what dpi to use?

What dpi should I scan a 35mm slide to produce a good image, via idvd, to a 36 inch television?

I suggest you read: Preparing images for DVD slideshows at http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/6.0/en/17.html
If you intent to produce a standard format NTSC DVD, you should have 720x540 pixels so you should scan at 540 ppi (say 600 ppi). This will give you a roughly 900x600 pixel image. (The DVD image is in a 4:3 ratio and your slides are in a 3:2 ratio.)
Keep in mind that if you are planning to view the slideshow on a TV set, you will not see the edges of the image due to a TV set ovescan. You can select 'Scale slides to TV safe area' in Preference>Slideshow. If you do this, your slides will have a black border when viewed on a computer monitor.

What dpi to scan photos?

Am about to scan lots of still photos into iPhoto. My scanner has a default setting of 200 DPI. I can go higher or lower than 200 and recognise there is a trade between quality and size. What sizes do others use to scan photos? Any learnings or tips welcome.
Thank you.

What's your ultimate aim?
A rule of thumb is that printing requires 300 dpi, web use about 100.

Have been advised by my email provider (recently blocked account requiring password reset) that they will only reset the password after a proven anti viru and malware scan has been done on ipad and iphone. Is this necessary and if so what do i use

As KP has pointed out, there actually aren't any anti-virus programs in the App Store. There are a few that allow you to scan e-mail or stuff like that, and a few that provide you with information about malware and new threats for other systems. But none are available that can scan your iOS device for malware, because the security restrictions in iOS do not permit any apps to have that kind of access to anything. Which means that you also cannot be infected with a virus (unless you have jailbroken your device).
If your account got compromised, that had nothing whatsoever to do with your iPad. Someone simply hacked it remotely. Happens all the time. It's really amazing that, in this day and age, e-mail providers are so ignorant of technology and how their own systems get compromised that they would try to require you to run software that does not exist!

What is the use of keyword SCAN ABAP-SOURCE

Hello experts,
what is the use of scan abap-source. please explain. what is tokens, statements, levels in that.

Hi
SCAN
This statement is for internal use only.
It cannot be used in application programs.
SCAN ABAP-SOURCE itab1 ...TOKENS INTO itab2
 ...STATEMENTS INTO itab3.
Parts marked with " ..." are interchangeable
Addition 1
... FROM n1
Addition 2
... TO n2
Breaks down the source code table itab1 into tokens not from start to finish, but only from line n1 to line n2.
The additions FROM n1 and TO n2 must, in this order, follow the specification of the source code table itab1.
When using the start specification n1, use the addition WITHOUT TRMAC to ensure that there are no unnecessary database accesses to the table TRMAC.
The end specification n2 is treated as "soft", i.e. a statement that begins on a line <= n2, but ends only on a line > n2, is returned completely.
If the end specification n2 is split in a chain statement, only the split part up to the next comma is returned completely, not the entire chain statement up to the next period.
Negative line specifications are not allowed and result in a runtime error.
A line specification of 0 amounts essentially to no specification.
If n1 number of lines in source code table, the scanner is not called (SY-SUBRC = 2).
If n1 > n2 and n2 > 0, the scanner is not called (SY-SUBRC = 2).

Addition 3
... KEYWORDS FROM itab4
Does not return all statements, only those specified in the key word table itab4.
If the key word table is empty (i.e. it contains 0 lines), all the statements are selected.
The lines of the key word table are treated as a character field.
To select a Native-SQL-statement or a macro definition, you can specify the pseudo key words EXEC_SQL or DEFINE_MACRO. It makes no difference whether the statements EXEC or DEFINE occur as well. Native SQL statements and macro definitions are returned as one statement (of type E or M even if the expansion of a macro definition results in more than one statement.
If the key word table contains a blank line, blank statements are also selected.
Addition 4
... LEVELS INTO itab5
Stores details about each edited source code unit (source code table itab1 itself, expanded include-programs, expanded macro definitions) in the level table itab5.
Specification of a level table makes sense only with the addition WITH INCLUDES.
The level table itab5 must have the structure SLEVEL.
The fields of the structure SLEVEL - and consequently the columns of the level table itab5 have the following meaning:
TYPE
Type of source code unit with the following possible values:
P (Program)
D (Internal DEFINE macro)
R (Macro from table TRMAC)
NAME
Name of source code unit (name of include program, macro name)
DEPTH
Current nesting depth of source code unit (>= 1)
LEVEL
Index of superior (i.e. including or calling) source code unit in the level table (>= 1, if DEPTH >= 2, otherwise 0)
STMNT
Index of superior (i.e. including or calling) statement in the statement table (>= 1, if DEPTH >= 2, otherwise 0)
FROM
Index of first statement of source code unit in the statement table (>= 1)
TO
Index of last statement of source code unit in the statement table (>= 1)
If the source code unit contains include programs or macro calls, the line range [ FROM, TO] in the statement table also covers the statements in subordinate source code units.
Addition 5
... STRUCTURES INTO itab6
Details of the construction of the source text table are given in the structure table itab6.
The structure table itab6 must have the structure SSTRUC.
The fields in SSTRUC (which are also the columns of structure table itab6) have the following meanings:
TYPE
Type of the structure with possible values:
P (Beginning of the source code)
R (Subroutine)
M (Macro, EXEC SQL)
I (Loop)
A (Case distinction)
C (Condition in a case distinction)
J (Goto command)
D (Structured declaration)
E (Event)
S (Follow-on from simple structured statement)
STMNT_TYPE
The statement type of the beginning of the structure. The values are listed in the type pool SCAN in structure SCAN_STRUC_STMNT_TYPE.
KEY_START
Flags whether the start of the structure is described semantically ('X' if there is a special statement, otherwise ' ').
KEY_END
Flags whether the end of the structure is described semantically ('X' if there is a special statement, otherwise blank).
STMNT_FROM
Index of the first statement of the structure in the statement table itab3.
STMNT_TO
Index of the last statement of the structure in the statement table itab3.
Index of the first substructure of the structure in structure table itab6.
STRUC_TO
Index of the last substructure of the structure in structure table itab6.
BACK
Index of the structure in the structure table itab6 that contains the structure as a substructure (0 if the structure is the root structure of a structure tree).
Addition 6
... OVERFLOW INTO c1
The addition is only allowed and required if the token table itab2 has the structure STOKEN or STOKEX.
If a token is too large to be stored in the token table in the field STR, it is placed in the overflow area c1. The offset of the token in the overflow area then lies in the token table in the field OFF1.
Addition 7
... WITH ANALYSIS
Breaks down each token t = a+b(c) according to the logic of the RSYN key word >ANALY into its three components a, b and c.
Offset and length of components a, b and c are stored in the fields LEN1, OFF2, LEN2, OFF3, and LEN3 in the token table. (The offset of OFF1 is always 0 and therefore not required.)
If you specify the addition WITH ANALYSIS, the token table itab2 must have the structure STOKESX, so that the fields LEN1, OFF2, LEN2, OFF3 and LEN3 are available.
If the token table has the structure STOKEX, you must consider the following:
If the whole token exists in the token table, the offset specifications are relative to the token start. If the token is in the overflow area c1, the offset specifications are relative to the start of the overflow area.
Addition 8
... WITH COMMENTS
Returns comments also, with each individual comment representing a token. The system additionally stores entries for each full block of comments in the table itab3, differentiating between comments that occur within statements and those that occur at program level. In itab3, an entry for a comment within a statement always comes before the statement containing the comment.
Example
Look at the following program fragment. The preceding numbers are the indexes of the tokens.
1 * An example *
2 * with scattered comments
6 MOVE
3 * Inserted comment 1
7 X
4 * Inserted comment 2
8 TO
9 Y
5 * Inserted comment 3
SCAN then enters the following values for the components TYPE, FROM and TO (in this order from left to right) into itab3.
'P' 1 2
'S' 3 5
'K' 6 9
If the addition ... WITH COMMENTS is used, the table itab2 must have the line type STOKES or STOKESX.
Addition 9
... WITH INCLUDES
Also breaks down subordinate source code units (included programs, called macros) into tokens.
You should normally combine the addition WITH INCLUDES with the addition LEVELS INTO itab5.
If (at least) one included program does not exist, SY-SUBRC is set to 1 and the relevant INCLUDE statement is flagged in the statement table itab3 by the statement type J (instead of I), but the breakdown process continues. The level table itab5 contains no entry for include-programs that do not exist.
If you combine WITH INCLUDES with WITHOUT TRMAC , TRMAC-Macros are not expanded because the system does not recognize them as subordinate source code units.
When macro calls are expanded, no position specifications are available. The corresponding fields in the token table itab2 and the statement table itab3 are then set to 0.
Addition 10
... WITH TYPE-POOLS
This addition has the same effect as the WITH INCLUDES addition, except that with the former include programs belonging to type groups are broken down into tokens.
Addition 11
.. WITH LIST TOKENIZATION
Tokens of the form (a1, a2, a3) are not returned as tokens but broken down into the elementary components.
Addition 12
... WITHOUT TRMAC
If a statement begins neither with an ABAP/4 key word nor with a DEFINE macro, the system does not check whether this is a TRMAC macro, but assumes an unknown statement. (Unknown statements are flagged in the statement table itab3 with a U in the field TYPE.)
To avoid unnecessary database accesses to the table TRMAC, you should use the addition WITHOUT TRMAC whenever you assume that the source code to be scanned contains unknown statements. Unknown statements are particularly likely to occur if you use the addition FROM n1, because the scanner does not start at the beginning of the source code, but from a specified point.
If you use WITHOUT TRMAC with WITH INCLUDES, TRMAC macros are not expanded because the system does not recognize them as subordinate source code units.
Addition 13
... PROGRAM FROM c2
Addition 14
... INCLUDE INTO c3
Addition 15
... MESSAGE INTO c4
Addition 16
... WORD INTO c5
Addition 17
... LINE INTO n3
Addition 18
... OFFSET INTO n4
The above additions have the same meaning as those for the
SYNTAX-CHECK: statement: c2 is an input field for a program name to be assigned to the source code, while the fields c3, c4, c5, n3 and n4 are output fields in case an error occurs.
To be able to analyze errors without modifying programs, use the additions INCLUDE, MESSAGE, WORD, LINE and OFFSET. These provide information about the errors which have occurred.
Variant 2
SCAN AND CHECK ABAP-SOURCE itab1 ...RESULT INTO itab2.
Parts marked with " ..." are interchangeable
Extras:
1. ... PROGRAM FROM c1 2. ... INCLUDE INTO c2
3. ... MESSAGE INTO c3
4. ... WORD INTO c4
5. ... LINE INTO n1
6. ... OFFSET INTO n2
The syntax of the program in table itab1 is checked. During the check, all of the information from the program, such as statement structures, statements, tokens, data objects, types and do on are placed into the result field. This field must have the type SYSCH_RESULT, which is defined in type group SYSCH. You must therefore declare type group SYSCH in your ABAP-program using a TYPE-POOLS statement.
&ABAP_ADDITION _1&
... PROGRAM FROM c1
&ABAP_ADDITION _2&
... INCLUDE INTO c1
&ABAP_ADDITION _3&
... MESSAGE INTO c3
&ABAP_ADDITION _4&
... WORD INTO c4
&ABAP_ADDITION _5&
... LINE INTO n1
&ABAP_ADDITION _6&
... OFFSET INTO n2
The above additions have the same effect as the corresponding additions in the statement SYNTAX-CHECK: c1 is an input field for a program name to be assigned to the source code, the fields c2, c3, c4, n1 and n2 are output fields, used when errors occur.
To enable you to analyze errors without having to modify the program, you should specify the INCLUDE, MESSAGE, WORD, LINE and OFFSET additions for the information about the error that occurred.

When adding a mp4 videos as a slide, what should quality be changed to?

When adding a mp4 videos as a slide, what should quality be changed to? (Optimized, J-Peg or High 24-bit)
What will this do?
Thanks,
Mike

Himanshu, if loading a video on a slide, would the slide quality setting for that slide have any effect at all? It's my own understanding that the videos are always separate and loaded when needed. So I'm curious if the slide quality would remotely matter in this case.
Cheers... Rick

What DPI should I have photos at for iPad?

I understand the ideal resolution for photos on the iPad is 1024x768. What DPI should I save them at for the optimal display quality?

But it won't make a large file size smaller right?
If your files are managed by iPhoto or Aperture on a Mac, then yes it will. You need only compare the storage space allocated for your iPad photos against the storage space required for the original photos in the managing application. For example, I have 3 April Aperture albums currently installed on my iPad. On the iPad they require a bit more than 200 MBs of space. The original files that remain stored on my hard drive by Aperture take up 600 MBs of space. The amount of storage space saved will depend on the format and dimensions of the original files. I.e., the less compressed and larger the original file, the more space you will save during this automated optimization by iTunes as it syncs the content. Conversely, the smaller and more compressed the files you sync via iTunes, the less savings your will realize until you reach a point where no optimization takes place and the iPad file is the same as the original file. I don't think we can explain this in any simpler terms here.
As to the dpi vs. ppi (and/or lpi for that matter), I assume the poster was left-handedly attempting to point out that the terms have somewhat technical differences and should be applied more judiciously with respect to the medium or device to which you are making your reference. However, most of us did realize what you were trying/meant to say.

How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s? And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.

How do I take 300 dpi photos with my iPhone 4s?
And how do I export them to my MacBook Pro at 300 dpi to use as I want to print photos.
I have been using the standard camera on the iPhone and require 300 dpi to create photo books as the photos are resized according the layout.
Your time and assistance in appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks Tonefox!
After looking at a few of the links I found a mathematical equation that assisted me.
Inches = Pixels/DPI
eg: 3 inches = 300 pixels/100 DPI
Using this equation and the fact that iPhone 4s takes photos that are 3264 x 2448 I was able to work out the largest print I could make with 300 DPI.
Width 3264 pix/ 300 DPI = 10.88 inches
Height 2448 pix/ 300 DPI = 8.16 inches
Therefore, the largest print (with 300DPI) I can make of these photos is 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches.
Which is great!
So is it critical for me to change the dpi in say photoshop or does it not matter as long as I don't go above the 10.88 inches x 8.16 inches?
From what I can gather the smaller I resize the photo the higher the DPI and the bigger I stretch the photo the lower the DPI?
Further clarification will be much appreciated. Thanks

What is the use of initial value in a database table?

Hi can anyone help me in knowing what is the use of initial value which is present besides primary key while creating a table?

Initial Value:
Indicator that NOT NULL is forced for this field
Use
Select this flag if a field to be inserted in the database is to be filled with initial values. The initial value used depends on the data type of the field.
Please note that fields in the database for which the this flag is not set can also be filled with initial values.
When you create a table, all fields of the table can be defined as NOT NULL and filled with an initial value. The same applies when converting the table. Only when new fields are added or inserted, are these filled with initial values. An exception is key fields. These are always filled automatically with initial values.
Restrictions and notes:
The initial value cannot be set for fields of data types LCHR, LRAW, and RAW. If the field length is greater than 32, the initial flag cannot be set for fields of data type NUMC.
If a new field is inserted in the table and the initial flag is set, the complete table is scanned on activation and an UPDATE is made to the new field. This can be very time-consuming.
If the initial flag is set for an included structure, this means that the attributes from the structure are transferred. That is, exactly those fields which are marked as initial in the definition have this attribute in the table as well.
hope it helps,
Saipriya

What should I use: removeChildAt?

Hello!
I have the following code which brings pictures from xml into a slideshow and upon pressing btnNext the next image slides on and the one that was on stage slides off... Now when I press btnBack the previous images slides on but a next image slides on too and they collide!!!
Would you be so kind as to review my code and tell me what I should use to eliminate the casualty toll! I was thinking something like removeChildAt, but that does not quite work how I have it set up. When I publish it, it removes my stage background... and then my btnNext... and then my btnBack... and then I can't do anything...

How to make the dblink and what is the use of this

plz any body tell me "how to make the dblink and what is the use of this"
sujit

Do you understand how to make the Slider work using code to read its value? You will need to look into that in order to do this.
What you can do is have the yello rectangle be a movieclip that sits over the red rectangle and use the Slider to control the yellow rectangle's alpha property from 0 to 1. That way the yellow will gradually fade as you slide.
What you will then need to do is figure out how to make the number of dots that appear reduce from 15 to 8 over the same range of the slider. You need to use the fractional value from the slider to decide how many dots either appear or do not appear.
You should not start new postings for the same topics that you arlready have postings for. Doing so in the future might result in them being removed.
