Settings for 30 second TV spot?

I have a client that needs a part of a video I produced for his website to be used for a 30 second TV spot.  I have never produced for broadcast and need a little help.  What is the best way to get a TV ready file; straight from FCP or export to Compressor?  What are the proper settings I should use?  Thanks.

Haven't cut for broadcast TV? Then you need to hire an online editor to do the finishing work.  There are a lot of very technical broadcast specification for both video and audio that need to be met. If you don't know how to meet them, you need to find someone who does. And then find out how to get trained so that you can in the future.

  • Jumper Settings for Second SATA-II drive Installed Into Dual 2.0Ghz G5

    I have installed a second SATA-II 500GB Maxtor drive into a brand new (purchased as re-furbished computer from Apple) dual 2.0Ghz PowerMac G5. The drive has four connector pins with a jumper slide over the last pin on the right. Before I power up the computer I want to verify the correct jumper settings. According to the Maxtor website, no jumpers are required since the "serial ATA host automatically determines the master and slave hard drive." And according to a MacSales tech (this is the vendor where I purchased the Maxtor drive) I should pull off the existing jumper. Can anyone verify if this is, in fact, the correct jumper setting (no jumpers on the connector pins) for this drive on this system?
    G5 dual 2.0 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hello! From the Maxtor web site.
    "PLEASE NOTE: Unlike standard ATA drives, Serial ATA drives DO NOT require the use of jumpers to configure the drive. Please disregard any references to jumper settings and Master, Slave and Cable Select configurations in the Maxtor Installation Guide."
    I'd leave the jumper as is came when you got it. tom

  • Mail server settings for second XServe

    Okay, I have the following problem in configuring mail service:
    One XServe we use is exclusively for our company, sites and mails. It uses our main domain for handling mails (SA: Mail service / Settings / General: domain name is "domain.com", host name is "domain.com").
    The domain has this MX record: "domain.com. IN MX 10 domain.com."
    The other XServe is intended for some of our clients. However... it has not a real domain assigned. Only the DNS server alias points to this server (dns2.domain.com, our first XServe is the primary DNS).
    So what do I type in at "domain name" and "host name" ? I guess it has to be filled - I would use "domain.com" as domain name and "dns2.domain.com" as host name.
    But... can users also use their own domain name as mail server when configuring their mail clients (of course, their domain would get a matching MX record in its DNS configuration) ? In this case I would use dns2.domain.com since it does not play a role.
    Can I proceed this way or is an other proceeding more recommended ?
    Do I need to add a MX record to our domain.com DNS config like "dns2 IN MX 10 domain.com." - not sure if this works overall ? Note that we don't want to send or receive mails by dns2.domain.com, it would just be that there is a value at SA mail service configuration.

    Confessed, I don't know anymore even it was just a few days ago... anyway, I can explain it, maybe it helps you:
    My problem was that I have two XServes - one with my company's domains and the other with domains and websites of my clients.
    On SA, mail service, tab "Settings", "General" you need to specify a domain name and a host name for the SMTP service.
    So far so good. On my first XServe (with my own domains), I simpy used "starenterprise.com" for both fields. Not really correct, but it works fine
    However for my second XServe I had no free domain that I could add there (and I refused to register one "just" for this purpose).
    So I finally decided to create a subdomain in my main domain's DNS records (in fact, since I run my own primary/secondary name servers, I simply used the alias for the second nameserver that resides on the second XServe).
    Therefore on the second XServe I used "dns2.starenterprise.com" for both, the domain and hostname. Again, not really correct, but it works.
    Since I have now some clients moved, I can state that anything works correctly.
    Originally I feared a bit that due to the "strange" domain/hosts the mail users could be punished by spam filtering software, but this was not the case.
    I hope I was of assistance. Let me know if anything is unclear

  • Settings for second install

    I've istalled LR4 on a second computer - did it from the disk. What's the best way to get all my settings (metadata, presets, preferences, etc) to match the old computer?

  • ITunes looses photo sync settings for Apple TV (1st gen.)

    Since the update to the new Photo app on my Mac, iTunes forgets the photo sync settings for my Apple TV (1st. generation, 160 GB HDD).
    Every time I open the photo section of the Apple TV sync settings, all the options are turned off. Then I mark a couple of albums and sync the Apple TV >> all album appear on the Apple TV.
    But after closing and re-opening iTunes in the photo settings everything is unmarked again. So on every following sync the photos on the Apple TV are easily erased :-( Resync them to the Apple TV takes hours (>30'000 photos!).
    All the other sync settings in iTunes remain intact.
    Environment:
    - MacBook Pro Retina 15" with the latest SW (Mac OS, iTunes, Photo App, etc.)
    - Apple TV 1st gen 160 GB HDD

    Restarting iTunes resolves the issue in the majority of cases, if it doesn't my second guess would be your security software.
    What really seems strange here is that there have been no updates since well before Xmas, so after initially setting it up, the first update would have brought you right up to the most recent (and indeed the very last) .
    Agh, how silly of me, I see it's iTunes you have updated.
    If that's about all you've changed, you might want to try reinstalling iTunes and bonjour.

  • How to change default settings for a video generator?

    I'm using a video generator (Lyric Media's Pan Zoom Pro) many times in the same project, and have to change the default settings for each new instance of the generator that I create. I'm wondering if there's any way to change the default settings for a generator (i.e., length of clip, individual slider and checkbox settings in the "controls" tab) so that each new instance automatically has my customized settings when I first open it.
    Thanks.

    That works for the all the controls/filter settings. The clip length still defaults to 10 seconds, but that's OK, since the main thing I was looking for was to change the clip's internal settings. Thanks for your help

  • HELP !!! can i change page-settings for a single page ??

    hi all,
    i´ve got a problem with my document settings:
    can i change the settings (especially the documentborders) for a single page, without changing the settings for the whole other document pages ?
    for example: page 1 --> border left 2cm , right 1cm
    page 2 --> border left 4cm , right 1cm
    PLEASE HELP ME !!!

    Hello mamamague
    All you need to do is select Insert->Section Break. A new page will be started. To adjust the margins you need to select the Layout Inspector (second icon on the top of the inspector) and adjust the margins in there. The Document Inspector still makes global changes and the layout ones are relative to them. It helps to turn Show Layout and Show Invisibles on so you can see what's happening to the document format as you play with these settings.
    Good luck!

  • Lack of settings for photo slideshows

    I've got to the stage of extreme frustration now trying to change the way that Front Row displays photos from iPhoto events (basically any photos in iPhoto).
    When I use the remote to envoke Front Row, select photos and select an event, Front row uses Ken Burns and a cube transition set to about 1 second delay. Frankly the whole experience makes me a little sea sick. I've looked at the settings accessed by the remote but there's nothing there. I've applied some slideshow settings to the event and played it in iPhoto and it works fine...it just doesn't uses these settings when the event is played in Front Row.
    However, if I set up an actual slideshow in iPhoto the settings are carried over to Front Row.
    This is extremely frustrating as it means that I can't simply trawl through my photo collection at random, sans Ken Burns, cube settings and a general feeling of nausea . I have to set up a bespoke slideshow each time I want to view photos in Front Row. Clearly the settings can be carried over, it just seems that Apple haven't got around to providing access to custom settings for Events....or am I missing something.
    Any thoughts?
    Regards Mr B

    I'm running iLife '09 and I have noticed that with photos/Events...
    However, if I create an Album, I can assign custom music, themes or no theme like Ken Burns, the duration of the photo and several other settings.
    Try creating an album with all the settings you prefer and then open up Front Row.
    Mine works just fine for albums.

    You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
    there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.

  • System settings for bdc?

    hi frenz!
    are there any system settings for running a bdc automatically in background?
    the problem i am facing is that my bdc code is running in the background as required in the devlopmant system whereas when i move the same code to the quality system i have to go and execute the bdc explicitly in sm35. Please advice.
    as an additional peice of info im using call transaction method and the mode used is P..

    HI Payal
    I was also once getting the same value of sy-subrc.
    My problem was with recording.When i was running in foreground,I was pressing the buttons(ok_code)
    but in background it was not possible very obviously
    so I checked my recording and the problem was solved.
    Secondly, check if you are hardcoding a request no somewhere
    as while running a bdc it may asks for a request
    but it wont be in quality.
    Please revert back in case of problems
    Please reward points.

    First some tests, try to change the value with transacions FB02 or FB09, if you cannot that may come from the Field Status Group associated with the account and posting keys.
    - FS03 to find Field Status Group of the account
    - SPRO then Financial Accounting, General Ledger Accounting, Business Transactions, Carry Out and Check Document Settings, Maintain Field Status Variants to find Field Status Group definition  (or SM34 on view cluster V_T004V)

  • ALL the Icons disappear for seconds after using five-finger-gesture and swipe to another page in the home screen

    Hello,
    iPad Air, 8.1.2
    This issue has been making me annoyed for a long time...
    You can find the bug by following steps:
    1). Go to Settings APP.
    2). Use five-finger-gesture to close this APP, and quickly swipe to another page of home screen before the icons in the current page haven't dropped down.( I mean...The animation that likes icons dropping down)
    3). You can see ALL the icons will disappear for seconds.
    I've restored the firmware again and again, but it doesn't helped at all...
    And if I turn on the "reduce motion" option, the icons won't disappear.
    And...Some little bugs:
    1) In APP switcher, when swiping up to close APPs, the icon's animation is lost. (I mean...The icons shouldn't disappear without any animations. In iOS7, the icons should have a "closing animation"
    2)In lock screen, press the power button with a very high speed, and you will see the "time" in the lock screen is being appeared and disappeared, appeared and disappeared, appeared and disappeared...
    I hope you can understand me, I'm sorry for my bad English, I'm a middle school student in China, and I have to report these bugs.

    I am not seeing that problem, however, this is a user forum. You aren't talking to Apple here.

  • What target settings for LCD monitor calibration?

    I have recently installed Spectraview II to calibrate my NEC LCD 2180WG monitor but have some doubts on which target settings to use as there are different opinions on color temp, gamma and intensity choices.
    I use my system purely for photo post-processing and printing on color calibrated printers. I use AdobeRGB color space and have no interest for processing images for web.
    - What color temp do you use/recommend? D50, D65 or something in between? I see that some folks use D65 and others swear by D50.
    - What about Gamma choice 1.8, 2.2 or L* ? Same here, no common choice here too.
    - Lastly what about intensity (brightness in terms of cd/mm2)?
    NEC recommends Target Settings for Printing, which are D50, 1.8 gamma and Max. Intensity, but I'm not sure.
    I'd appreciate if you could recommend correct settings for my type of work.
    Thank You

    Charles,
    I arrived at 5100K by measuring a few of my favorite printing papers with my spectrophotometer. This was a good compromise (most measured between about 4800K and 5300K). I confirmed the results by trying various calibrations them comparing the monitor to prints (using custom printer profiles). Anywhere near 5000K looked great, but 5100K was the best match of the bunch. I used 5000K lighting for viewing (Solux and Philips light sources).
    Luminance settings were done in a similar fashion. First I compared a ppure white Photoshop document (on the monitor) to the intensity of a sheet of white printing paper displayed under my viewing light. With the monitor luminance set to the 85 cd/m2 range, the two documents look about the same brightness of white. I try to view my prints under "moderate" light levels rahter than ultra bright levels, since I know they won't be lit by spot or flood lights when placed on a wall. If you do have spots on your hung prints, there is a case to use a higher luminance level on your monitor. Anyway, on many LCDs, if you set the luminance too high, your blacks can start to look a little washed out. When set to about 85 cd, my tonal range in the print is a great match to my monitor. If I have the monitor luminance set to 100 or higher, I find that my prints look dark and muddy in comparison (unless viewed under unrealistically bright lights). So, a lot of trial and error, plus some initial brightness comparisons.
    Gamma is a tougher one. I have a special viewing target that I bring up in Photoshop (Lab based to prevent any possible conversions). When viewed in Photoshop at full magnification, it helps me to set the gamma, which affects mostly the midtone density. On my LCD, I found )again by trial and error) that 2.0 gave me the best tonal distribution. My old CRT worked best at 1.8 gamma, and other LCDs sometimes work best at other gamma settings, such as 2.2.
    The above settings work beautifully given my equipment, my viewing levels, ambient working conditions, etc. My monitor to print match is excellent from both a color and tonal range standpoint. Hope that helps clarify my thinking and approach.
