Sound file size

Hi,
How do people have music controls on their sites WITH a
selection of 3 OR 4 SONGS? Is there a way to compress file size?
ONE song I have for example is close to 50 megs. I would like to
put a player (soon to be created in Flash, using tutorials) on my
home page, but before I do one song alone is toooooooo large of a
file. And I would like to have a selection of maybe three songs.
What do I do? Can anybody help?
Thanx so much,
Bobbi Jo

Hi,
Thanx for gettin back to me.
Here is something that I would like to do.
http://www.vamapaull.dxwebs.com/
These are more than 30 secs, dont ya think?
I will learn to build the player, but like I said song files
are to be too large. I havent compressed anything, I thought maybe
others were. I dont know.
What do ya think,
Thanx Again,
Bobbi Jo

2 easy questions - one on file size, teh other on sound reduction

Hi, hope you can help:
1. If I make a 30 second movie clip in imovies that I would like to put on myspace it is 600MB and the limit is 100MB. How do I reduce the file size or what other options do I have?
2. When I overlay music from itunes onto a movie clip, is it possible to take the sound off the movie clip, or quieten the sound during the music?
Thanks for your help

1) in the share dialog, you see some presets, mail, web, cd.rom.. choose one of these and your file size will shrink dramatically...
I personal prefer a "manual" setting, choose Quicktime, hit the button, and you get confronted with a second window, with zillions of options...
2) sure, spend some time reading..:

Minimum size/maximum quality MP3 sound file balance

My first objective when creating MP3 files is to compress the sound file as much as possible, and I don't want any file to exceed 1MB, if possible. (One exception was compressing a 30 minute poetry recitation into a 1.8 MB file.) That turned out okay, but music is another story. So, I'd like to know more about how to strike a satisfactory balance between size and quality. For the iTunes MP3 import settings,this means choosing between (1) STEREO BIT RATES (16kbps to 320 kbps), (2) QUALITY (Low to Highest), and (3) CHANNEL (mono or stereo)
In the past, I have always chosen mono, but it now occurs to me that the quality enhancement of stereo might justify the larger files caused by slightly higher kbps settings. That's just one example. Anyway, I'd like to read an article on the trade-offs between the variables that iTunes provides. Any
suggestions?

Stereo Bit Rate is what people are talking about when they say that a song is XXX kbps. (kbps is a measure of bit-rate, a measure of kilobytes per second).
Stereo v. Mono really depends on what type of song you are sampling, and what you are listening to it on. For virtually all music recorded after 1970, though, you'd probably want to use Stereo.
Also, you might get some mileage by making sure that you are importing the music at 41.100 kHz rather than using Auto or 48.000. (This is basically the "speed" at which the music is sampled. The faster its sampled, the more information it contains. It makes it higher quality, but also higher file size. You probably won't notice too much difference between 41.1 and 48.)
Finally, you should also check the Variable Bit Rate box. This will help reduce the file size, as the bit rate will be reduced during silences and other times where the song doesn't need more information.
As for the overall Bit Rate, its really subjective. Your best bet is to just try it at a few different levels and decide which is best for you.

Project file size bloat when editing sound media in Audition

Whenever I clean up a voice-over clip in using Audition, the size of the clip in Captivate remains about the same, but the project file size increases by about the amount of the original clip.
For example, the size of the original sound clip is 1098.90. The size of the edited clip is 1103.98. The size of the original project file is 5416, but the size of the saved file with the edited clip is 6496. I'm using Captivate 7 and the latest version of Audition CC. I've cleared my cache and removed any unused media.
All I am doing to the clip is some noise reduction and EQ tweaking.
It seems like Captivate is saving both versions of the sound clip.
UPDATE:
I've also tried saving the sound file as a .wav from Audition into a folder and then updating the sound clip in Captivate. Same bloat problem.
I have also copied the slides into a blank project. Again, same file size problem.
Any ideas?

How can I use one background jpeg in my ebook without a large file size

I'm guessing that by simply adding a background image or watermark by default adds a separate copy to each page. Since I am intending for them to be the same on all pages except for the title page, how do I shrink the final file size of my PDF eBooks so that the image is stored once but shown on all pages?
Thanks in advance.

Thank you, I understand, yeah, I knew that, my phone is factory unlocked and I am going home, which is obviously not in the States and I am thinking of buying a local carrier there. However, I still have 2 weeks before I leave and cannnot wait to start using my Iphone 4. I thought at least I could use the mp3 player function. So as far as I understand, I cannot activate it without a sim card. I have been using metropcs for about two years and it does not have a sim card. In this case, do I really not have another choice but wait for two weeks to listen to music? My Mp3 player just failed me and I really need to listen to music but on the other hand, while I can use my iphone as an mp3 player in two weeks, I don't want to spend more money on a new one. So, do you have another suggestion? For instance, can I use a friend's sim card to activate mine? Would this cause any trouble, when I go home and buy a local carrier? I think these questions might kinda sound weird to you, but first time with an Iphone, extremely excited to start using under my circumstances, I need help thanks,

Export QuickTime file with new audio and maintain the file size and quality as the original.

I shot some footage for a client yesterday and ran into an issue. To make a long story short I have QuickTime mov files shot with my Panasonic GH4 that have a buzzing sound in the audio track. I have clean audio from a recorder that can be sync'd. Is there a way for me to do this for the client and deliver them as the same QuickTime file but with the clean audio and keep the file size close to the original and not have quality loss in the image?
If so I will probably put all of the spanned clips together from each interview and sync the audio before delivery. I am just not sure which codec will give the client the same quality footage compared to the originals and not have a massive difference in the overall file size. They did request that they be Quicktime MOV files though so that is a must.
I don't see this as an option in the codecs in the export settings in PP, but is there a way to export as ProRes or another MAC native codec that will save them from having to convert it on their end? I am on a PC with Adobe CS5.5 so I am not too familiar with MACs, but from what I understand they would need to convert the files if I sent them straight out of the camera.
I found some related search results for this but they pertained to "Best quality" for export. I am not sure how the varying options work but I don't want to create files that are considerably larger, just not less quality.
If anyone has experience with this it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Cole

Here's the workflow: I imported the video footage into iMovie '08 and did my edits. Then I exported it (share) to my desktop with compression set @ 740 X 480. Then I used QuickTime Pro to fix the audio track. The file plays perfectly with both audio tracks working. It's a QuickTime file (.mov).
I hope this jars any replies as to why the file when uploaded to my iWeb gallery drops the second audio track.
Hmm,

How can i find out the file size of a Keynote on an iPad please?

How can i find out the file size of a Keynote on an iPad please?

I think a rule of thumb is what you're looking for.
Full bandwidth CD audio (AIFF): about 10 MB/min
Apple Lossless: about 5 MB/min
MP3 @ 256k: about 2 MB/min
MP3 @ 128k: about 1 MB/min
Of course the MP3 file size is exactly linear with bit rate.
As for sound quality:
Apple Lossless is, as the name says, lossless.
MP3 @128k: fine for listening in the car or the kitchen etc. If you have an audiophile sound system, this will remind you why you spent all that money.
MP3 @256K: barely distinguishable from CD on very good equipment.
MP3 @320K: probably not distinguishable from CD.
I presume that since you're talking about importing classical CDs these are ones you own. Remember you can always do it again if you need higher fidelity or if better technology comes out. I import most CDs at 128k, since most of my MP3 listening is in the car, or walking, or as background. And I can always play the CD if I want to sit and listen.
The logic for purchased music is totally different -- you probably won't get to upgrade that without buying it some different way. So buying 128k MP3s (or AACs) is something you'll probably regret later. Buying 256k MP3s is a lot less problematic.

How do I find out the file size of my photos, and change them to the size

This will sound inane, but I cannot figure out where to find the file size of my photos in iPhoto. I need a jpeg of a certain file size and image size for my blog background, but can't figure out how to even start.

If the limited quality options do not get you the file size you need export the full size image files to a folder on your Desktop and use Resize! to batch resize the image dimensions and file size (jpeg compression level) to what you need.
Click to view full size
With Resize! you can fine tune the pixel dimensions and file size.

Premiere Elements 11 file sizes

Premiere Elements 11 file sizes?
I recorded small 170MB and larger 570MB videos with audio using HyperCam 3.
Both load and play back in Windows Media Player (ver 12.0.7601.18150) without a problem.
I can load and play back the small files in Premiere Elements 11 without a problem.
But, when I load the larger file into Premiere Elements 11, only the sound track loads and plays.
No video track and the preview screen is a solid black box on my monitor.
Is there a file size restriction in using Premiere Elements 11?

Martyson 2010
By the time I downloaded and looked at your sample video, I see that you and nealeh have worked out a workaround, that is, converting your Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi (1920 x 1080 @ 10 frames per second) to H.264.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second.
I was able to convert your sample video into H.264.mp4 (1920 x 1080 @ 30 frames per second using the free HandBrake program). All 11 minutes 52 seconds of the H.264.mp4 imported into Premiere Elements 11 without issue.
In the case of these converters, we are dealing with changes in at least video compression, file extension, and frame rate.
However
The tests brought up some interesting questions
1. When I ran your file through the gspot utility, the video codec was shown as Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM), but it listed Codec NOT installed.
2. In spite of the Codec NOT installed, I was able to play back your video in Windows Media Player and VLC Player.
3. Your Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi imported with the complete duration of the file, but only audio, no video.
Further
4. When I ran my own Premiere Elements 11 created Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi (30 frames per second, 11 min duration) through gspot, the video codec was shown as Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM), but it listed Codec NOT installed - same as yours.
5. Yet, my file imported into Premiere Elements 11 completely (video and audio).
6. I need to run a Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM).avi 10 frames per second, 11 min duration) to see if I get the same results as in 5.
When you record your video, do you have the option of changing the frame rate from 10 to 30 frames per second?
So, some of the questions that the remain for me
a. Why is my Premiere Elements 11 created Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) appearing to be different from the Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) that you use in your file?
b. Why is gspot telling me that the Microsoft Video 1 (CRAM) codec is not installed when I can use it in Premiere Elements 11 for the import and export of my own file?

What is the best seeting to export as smaller file size AVI from FCP?

Hi, I know the topic sounds very similar to many of AVI post it had been up, however, somehow, I do not find the right answer that I'm looking for.
I have a couple animation created from QT as "image sequence".
I simply want to export as avi file.
Here is the question I have.
1. If I choose DV/DVCPRO-NTSC, and choose scan mode as Progressive, I get interlacing looking quality video.
2. If I choose compressor type as "NONE" then even I set as "least" quality, the file size will be over 1G..although, that's the quality I'm trying to archive.
Is there any other setting I can choose to get good quality with lower file size avi? I have seen or download avi file on the net with very good quality and still download-able file size...

What is the QT method? (Export from QT Player?)
Yes, 10 hour plus is ridiculous. I'm guessing that there was either something wrong with your Internet connection and/or at the You Tube end of the uploasd/compression process.
Innocentius and Hugh are right; using Compressor (or MPEG Streamclip) and using YT's uploader is the most reliable workflow.(Since Google changed the account verification process, there have been reports of upload problems using Share>You Tube.) In addition, you have more control over the quality of your movie. You can create multiple custom settings in Compressor and then Share > Compressor custom settings. It will go faster if you export out of FCP as a Pro Res 422 file; should take 3-4 minutes top. The Web encode for a 3 minute video in Compressor might take 15 minutes, depending on your system. MPEG Streamclip is probably a little faster.

Why is file size of exported clip so large?

I have a movie clip in MPEG-4 format, 3 minutes in duration, 720x400. I ripped it (using Handbrake) from a DVD I own. Let's call this clip Clip A. I wanted it to be smaller, so I used Quicktime Pro 6.5.2 to export it. Let's call the exported clip Clip AE (E for exported). Clip AE has these properties:
Compression: Sorenson Video 3
Quality: High
Frame rate: 15
Width x Height: 310 x 200
Sound format: QDesign Music 2
Sample rate: 22,050 kHz
Channels: Mono
File Size: 5.5 MB
Great. That's just what I wanted. Now I go to a second movie clip I have in MPEG-4 format. This Clip B is only 90 seconds in duration, 720x400. I export it to Clip BE. Clip BE has these properties:
Compression: Sorenson Video 3
Quality: High
Frame rate: 15
Width x Height: 310 x 200
Sound format: QDesign Music 2
Sample rate: 22,050 kHz
Channels: Mono
FILE SIZE: 25.8 MB
In both exports I set the Key Frame Rate and Data Rate to automatic. So, everything is the same except Clip BE, which is half as long in duration as Clip AE, is 5 times larger in file size.
I'm no expert at using QT Pro, but this result just does not make sense to me. Why is the second exported clip 5 times larger than the first one. I wanted to email both of them to my wife at work as a little surprise, but the second one is way too big for my email account. How can I get the file size of that second clip down to the size of the first one? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
iMac G5, iBook (dual USB) G3 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

The second clip probably has more detail or motion than the first.
Open Clip AE and choose "Get Info." Note the data rate of the video.
Now export clip B again, but instead of setting the data rate to automatic, set it to the same number as Clip AE's data rate.
You will lose video quality, but the file should come out smaller.

Hi
I Learned how to read a file text and Parse as StringTokenizer. But still i don't know how to read the Individual tokens into to database.
But now i face a new Problem, i am not able to sort it out.
i am posting my code
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class CSVExample {
 public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
 BufferedReader inputStream = null;
 PrintWriter outputStream = null;
 try {
 inputStream = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("file.csv"));
 String text;
 while((text=inputStream.readLine())!= null)
 StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(text);
 if(st.hasMoreTokens())
 System.out.println(st.nextToken());
 } finally {
 if (inputStream != null) {
 inputStream.close();
}Here the Problem is The file.csv has got two fields ID, NAME The content of this file is as follows
T12,MR.RAJ KUMAR
T13,MR.EARNEST DIES
T14,MR.MATHEW HYDEN
Now when i StringTokenize this File The Output printed as follows
T12,MR.RAJ
T13,MR.EARNEST
T14,MR.MATHEW
That means when it finds the Space it is not printing the Remaining Text.
Please Help me in this and then Tell me how to INSER The Tokens into the Database Table
Thank you for your service
Cheers

Trying to reduce file size of my opening page in a flash site

I'm using the Flash CS4 IDE, and the first page of my site takes a lot longer to load than I want it to. So I wanted to go through the varied images / symbols / movie clips / sounds and so on to see where all the memory is being chewed up.
When I go into my library, however, I can see the Name, LInkage, usecound and Type of my elements, but no mention of file size and I can't seem to find any right click menu that lets me add file size to the list of details being displayed.
Is there a way to make it show file size? Or some workaround?
And are there any best practices to reduce file size aside from using symbols for anything that's used more than once and reducing image and sound quality?
Thanks

I was actually using the term pretty loosely. I'm building a Gaia site which works by loading an Index page, then a Nav (navigation) page on top of that, and then lets you load and unload pages as necessary on top of those.
Since the Nav page never gets unloaded it's a good place to park certain content. So it's actually my Nav page that's gotten too bloated. And the coding is handled through a separate Nav.as file (so it's not the first frame of my nav.swf, it's all the varied movie clips I had to incorporate into my Nav.fla
I'm just looking for a way to identify which MovieClips & sound files (only have a couple of short ones) and other assets are taking up the most memory so I can see if I can cut those down.
Also, do unused symbols use up memory or is it only the assets you actually end up adding that count toward file size?
Thanks

Acceptable File Size and Resolution for Still Photos in Keyframe Motion

Hello Hello
I know that FCE HD (as other Video Editors), will automatically fit a still photo's size to it's default capability of 720 x 480 Correct?
Well, in regard to making the best possible ZOOMS, and Pans from Still Photos, is it neccessary to re-size all your photos (from an external editor like photoshop), to a specfic size?
According to an older book for FCE, it sez that actually photos re-sized to 720x534 with a resolution of 72 are best. *The proper proportion for NTSC.
And I noticed that when I inserted larger JPG still sizes (like about a meg), on the FCE timline, and when applying Panning, or Zooms, some of the rendered images with motion didn't pan or zoom smoothly.
Is that because those file sizes were TOO large?
Well I have soooo many stills that need to be imported into this particular project that it would be a lot easier for me to just generally reduce these stills (by percentage).
And is the magic resolution amount supposed to be 72?
Because if that's the case I can re-size all my photos to 72, and try to keep the file sizes down to say 300 KB's or so.
Sound like a plan?

Thank you guys
"basically, you should try to make your images large enough so they never have to be scaled beyond 100% in the motion tab in fcp."
Actually as I mentioned some of these file sizes are very large. About 800-900 KB's - and what as a result, what I've noticed is that I actually had to DECREASE the viewing area in both the Browser Window, and the Canvas Winbow just to be able to see the whole image.
Ok - so the 72 DPI is not as important as the dimensions of the photo. But as I said I have soooooo many of these that it would take me forever to manually re-size them all not to mention the fact that re-sizing some of them (odd shapes),would throw the images out of balance.
So again I ask - if there is NO motion applied to the photo, file sizes of about 200 to 350 KB's appear just beautifully ....
BUT
If I need to PAN or ZOOM, is it ok to laod a 1 MEG sized JPG onto the timeline and start working with Keyframe?????
In fact in some cases I'm actually using these larger file JPS's (1 meg or more), so that they TOTALLLY fit the canvas window (cropping them by enlargment)
*With some clipping of the original image of course ...
Why do I do this?
So that you don't see the usual border with horizontal images, or vertical images - know what I mean?
Thanx

Can't get large sound file to work

Hi all,
I just upgraded to LR 3, and now can't get a large MP3 (8MB) to work with my slide show. Is there some new limitation on size? Something I am doing wrong. My plan is to just use a single slide to hitch a 1-hour "radio" show, create an MP4 to upload to youtube. I will embed this on my client's website -- so that I have a streaming thing. Get it?
Thanks in advance for any answers.
Pam

The sound file is an MP3, and the little alert dealie shows, saying the file is not a valid music file -- even though it worked in LR1. (I just couldn't save the slide show as an MP4, that's why I upgraded.)
