Stripe SIze please help

I am about to setup a RAID 0 array on my K7N2 Delta board with 2 X 80 gig Samsung SATA drives any ideas what I would need to set the Stripe size to for a Windows XP configuration? Also does the array BIOS set it for you for optimal performance by default?

djcla,
I use a 16k Stripe vs the default 64k. I benchmarked all the options and found 16k optimal. Here were my latest Hard Drive Performance Numbers:
Take Care,

DVD Size- Please help

I am in a little bit of a panic right now. I am rendering a movie in IDVD that I brought over from Final Cut Express. It's about 52 minutes long and 11GB. I put in a DVD that's only 4.7GB. I didn't know this was the problem. I put it in last night before I went to bed and this morning I got an error. I am assuming this is why I received the error. I am really new to all of this. Are there blank DVD's that will accomodate this size file and will they work with a MAC? Please help. I have to have this done by noon today.
Thank-you so much.

size doesn't matter in iDVD.. only length.. any under 120min is ok.
recommendations:
in iDVD: don't just 'burn', but select 'create image'.
in FCE: don't 'manually' convert into something by choosing 'Export/Quicktime Conversion', just 'Export/Quicktime Movie' - drag that into iDVD.
be sure, FCE project and iDVD project fit the same framerate/standard (25/29.97fps)
don't 'overwhelm' iDVD's dropzones with 'hours' of content.. those dropzones are meant to fit a few seconds (minute) of material..
be sure, your projects contain 'any' audio (even an audio-track of 'nothing' is audio.. but no 'empty' audio track in iDVD please).
when image is created, launch apps/Utilities/DiskUtility to 'copy' disk image onto a 'real' DVD.. choose Verbatim or Toyo Yuden -r ... burn speed 2-4x .

I need to Paste without Photoshop changing the pasted size, please help!

Hello all,
I'm learning to use photoshop and could really use some help! I need to cut and paste an image from one photoshop doc to another. This I can do just fine, but when I do, it resizes the image I pasted and makes it smaller. Since I'm wokring with scans that need to retain their exact size, this is not good.
Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing woring?
-Also, the piece of the doc I'm cutting from is a little bit bigger than the 8..5 x 11 letter size doc I'm pasting into.
Thanks so much for your input!
Anna

Problem with image size, please help!

I have spent the last week editing several photos I took for my cousin of his newborn baby (removing backgrounds/people, editing colours etc etc).
I went to get them printed but the image size is only around 800 x 400 pixles. I checked my original images from my camera and their 4000 x 3000, why are my photos once imported into photoshop suddenly being drastically reduced in size?
Really need some help here as I'm afraid I might have lost a whole weeks work as the images are now too small to get decent prints from.
Thanks,
Sacred

The pixel measurements are 3000 x 4000 when taken straight off my camera but for some reason after editing the photo its gone down to 800 x 800, this wouldnt be too much of a problem but its at a density of 300dpi where as the original pictures are at 72dpi.
I've tried my hardest to replicate the problem all afternoon going through the various stages of importing, editing and saving that I normally do and I can't get it to do it again? Really confused as to whats happened, its not the first time though I had the same problem back in 2007 after shooting someones wedding, edited a few of the photos (no cropping) then found the sizes had dropped drastically.
As far as I know I don't have any scripts, actions or image processes set up to do anything on any of my images.
When I open the file I've retouched its gone from a printable measurement of 60 x 40 inches to a printable measurement of 3 x 3 inches, this image has been extensivly cropped (just over half to 3/4) but no where near as small as 3 x 3 printable inches (I'm talking in printable size and not pixles because it can be missleading as saying the size in pixles doest equate to a physical size).
From what I can tell the image has changed size after editing and saving, I only noticed a few days later when I attempted to have the image printed that it had reduced in size so much. Which leads me to believe that the image problem must stem from the way its being saved each time??
Thanks a lot for your help and time guys

HD File Sizes - Please Help

Hi there... i imported files from my camera, on my camera is 120GB, and i can film 13 hours in Full HD (1080) when i imported it to my mac, a 5 min clip was 5 Gigs. i dont get why its 5 gigs, i can record 13 hours on 120 Gigs... does anyone know how i can reduce the file size without loosing quality? thanks for all the help.

AVCHD is a compression file storage format. That compression needs to be decompressed in order to be viewable as video for editing. It's like having a zipped or stuffit file backup of one of your programs. While compressed it is small and thus there is room for more info on the storage device. But, when you're ready to use that program, you uncompress it, suddenly it's much bigger.
When you are ready to burn a DVD, iDVD, TOAST 10, or whatever you choose will compress the video again as it burns your disk. As you may see in other posts on this forum, iDVD will compress as much as necessary (within reasonable limits) to be able to fit 2hr. of content on the DVD disk.

Dramatic drop in file size - please help?

My CR2 files of about 25MB are being reduced to about 1MB jpg's after going through ACR and PS CC and being saved. Sometimes I crop and sometimes I don't, this is not the reason. Also I choose the save as max file size always. Where am I going wrong?
Mac OSX 10.6.8
PS CC
Using Bridge

The best reason for shooting RAW is that its very forgiving. Its like having a peace of exposed film an exposure that does not get destroyed during development. You can develop it over and over again.
The truth is there has not been a huge change in image size in your jpeg image unless you interpolated the image size during raw conversion. If you do not interpolate the image size your RAW data is for the same number of pixels as you jpeg image with the exception of some outer pixels which are only used to realize inner RGB color pixels in your RGB color image.   In fact there are more bytes required for the RGB image. For 8bit RGB image have three 8bit values for each pixels. 8bits for red 8 for green and 8 for blue. So each pixel requires 24bits, 3 bytes. Raw pixels have a single 12 or 14bit value for a single color Red or green or blue. For most digital sensors and there are twice as many green pixels as there are red and blue pixels.
The quality of each pixels varies with sensor exposure lighting etc.   There is also a quality setting for jpeg from 0 to 12 which influences how compression is performed. High values in the 10 to 12 range produce larger files and when the image is encoded into a jpeg file. When a jpeg file is decoded the image quality is close to the image that was encoded with a high quality value jpeg setting but its not exactly the same. Some image quality is lost. You will be hard press to see any difference in print quality at quality 10 and 12. Quality 10 jpeg file are quite a bit smaller then the quality 12 files.
It is not a good idea to work on an image using jpeg image format with repeated edit sessions. For image quality will drop a little with each edit session. If you edit in a single edit session you can save the image over and over again in jpeg format without loosing a much image quality it the same as encoding the image once in jpeg.   You loose quality when you use many edit session. Each session generate a new generation of the jpeg image. Each additional edit session causes a jpeg format decode and a jpeg encode for the save one or hundreds of saves. The original edit session if done through ACR did not have any jpeg decode. It had a RAW conversion that was later save and encoded in Jpeg format.
Its the sequence decode encode decode encoed the cause quality lose each edit session only has a single decode duing open.

I have iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hi, I have the iphone 4s and just bought an ebook for ibook, trouble is the font is so tiny I can't read it and the font sizer is not working? Please help!

Hello Glittergirl68,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like the function to reseize the Font in an iBook is not functioning properly.
I recommend a few things here. First close all the apps that are running in the background:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
From: iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
When you have done that, restart the phone, and try again.
If the issue persists, I would follow these steps from the article:
iOS: Troubleshooting apps purchased from the App Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
2. Check for app updates
You can setup apps to update automatically in Settings > iTunes & App Store, but make sure that your apps are up to date:
Open the App Store and tap Updates. If updates are available, tap Update All.
If prompted, enter your iTunes Store account information. App Store will then download and install the app updates.
Note: Some apps may require a Wi-Fi connection to update.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You can also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
4. Restart the app
If the issue affects only a single app, try closing just that app.
5. Restart your device
Turn the device off and on.
6. Reinstall the affected app
Remove the app from your device and reinstall it:
Tap and hold any app icon on the Home Screen until the icons start to wiggle and show a small "x" in the top-right corner of the app.
Tap the "x" in the corner of the app you want to delete.
Tap Delete to remove the app and all of its data from your device.
Press the Home button.
Go to the App Store.
Search for the app and then download it again.
All the very best,
Sterling

Please help! How can I change the font / text size for the checkout page? I asked Support and they sent me here- thanks in advance for your response.

Hello everyone! I build an e-commerce shopping cart via BC and integrated it with a muse website as seen at sarahcosmetics .com
Everything is great, but my clients clients are complaining they cannot see the text well once they're in the checkout page.
I was able to enlarge the font in my Registration-Buy form in the Online Shop Layouts / Module Templates under the Site Manager. This helped enlarge the font size in the checkout form however my issue arrises on the next page when they have to enter their details like CC information name, address etc. the font is way too small and I'm not sure where to access the tools to enlarge that.
If you could PLEASE help I would greatly appreciate it. I told my client I would handle it asap and I have no idea how to fix this.
Thank you in advance for your help.

This isn't possible yet in the current version of Fennec, but we are working on it. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=590817 for details.

≥≤ Symbols output in different sizes. Please help!

Working in Quark Xpress 9.5.1, on OS 10.8.4 using Font Agent Pro 5.028...
I am having difficulty with the the font Helvetica Condensed. Sometimes the greater than/equal (≥) or less than/equal signs (≤) are different sizes. We have three different macs all set up with same software/versions and using the same font library. Each one is outputting differently. We have struggled with this same issue through various OS and various versions of Quark and Font Agent Pro.
I am not very knowledgeable about all of the things that can go wrong with fonts - and I just don't know how to get to the source of our issue.
This happens using both Adobe and Allied Fonts.
Please help!

The usual problem is that at print time, your printer does not have the exact font available, and substitutes a different font that it thinks should be comparable. The letters sometimes work, but special symbols are rarely the same in all aspects in different fonts.
If there is a Printer option to do so, tell it not to do any Font substitution.

I have an emergency- Trying to convert a PSB file to a PDF files size is 3.58 GB - Please help

I have a few files that I need to make ASAP into banners that are 19ft x 15ft and many other sizes. I can only change into a RAW photoshop or a tiff. I tried saving into a tiff then converting but nothing is working.
I was also going to try to convert into a AI program then into a vector but with no luck. Anyone can please help Thank you

I may not quite follow. But then you don’t really provide a lot of onformation about the file in question.
Even if Photoshop should not allow forsaving a pdf if you can save a tiff you should be able load that into a layout application and export/save a odf from there.

Please help me! Illustrator CS3 can't maintain correct size when saving to PDF!

Hi - please help me!
We run a Mac with CS3 Suite to design our signs for print & vinyl cut.
Most of our files are 50 - 120 cms wide & high, some larger.
If I create a document in Illustrator for exapmle of 100 cms x 100cms, put some artwork (vector) inside, and save it as a high res PDF, then close the file and open the PDF in illustrator, you can gaurentee that the dimensions will have changed by a fraction of a mm. If working with bigger artwork it can be out but up to half a mil. Typically a file could become say 58.687cm instead of 59cm.
Anyone know why the heck this does that??
It's the artwork & the artboard.
Thanks,
Henoch

All of AI's math is based on points and inches and depending on DPI settings, there may be rounding errors with otehr unit systems. Perfectly normal. Has been forever that way. you may try to place an empty dummy frame around the entire artwork to enforce a specific artboard/ crop board size. Sometimes helps, but not always...

Please Help! I need to have fixed .jpg sizes within scaled .swfs - AS1 - Elearning Flash

Hello,
I'm new to this forum by 2 min. and I have been using Flash for a while, but I'm now working at a place that has brought up issues while using images in our E-learning Flash Projects.
The Problem:
1.We have our Flash course open in a new browser window with NO tool bars to optimize size.
2.The Flash content is scaled to fit the screen - Amlost 97% or more of all graphics are Vector.
3. We are running into a project that needs to use screenshot .jpgs and we can not get large images from the client.
4. The .jpgs are being Scaled with the interface and all the FLASH, this is making the client unhappy, and the Jpgs look HORRIBLE, Jaggy.
Solution: - PLEASE HELP!
1. I have searched for days to fix this since we have to keep the whole Flash interface scaling to maximize the Screen area (I don't agree with this but it is the requirements)
2. Does anyone KNOW how to make images/jpgs stay a fixed size even while the Flash .swf that the images are in is being scaled?
3. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome! - I have been searching about HTML and or CSS in Flash and I'm getting lost, not sure if it's possible. Also I have been exploring dynamically loaded .jpgs in Flash. Does an FLV scale when using media components?
Thanks So MUCH!
Kyle

you'll need to code that yourself by detecting the scaling used when you go fullscreen (or full browser), and rescale the images (which will need to be converted to movieclips).
or you could enable the smoothing of your images so their anti-aliased when they're scaled.

Please help! How to increase font size in RemoteApp?

I have weak-sighted user.
There is some RemoteApp running on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standatd x64.
I need to increase scale of fonts to 125% and use 120 dpi fonts for this user.
But increasing scale of fonts disabled on RDP Session.
Option to use 120 dpi font doesn't exist.
On Windows Server 2003 I can locally increase scale and dpi and this apply for RDP sessions of all users.
If I locally increase font scale on Windows 2008 R2 this doesn't apply on RDP Session.
I tried to use desktop customisation to increase fonts of Windows Title, Menu and etc for this user. But I can't increase system fonts on dialogs.
Please help me to increase font size for my RemoteApp.

This is an old thread, but the problem persists on W.Server R2
Interestingly, as Microsoft removed this functionality to solve this problem, wich in my case, with thin client's connected to the server, the problem is aggravated.
It seems that there is not the slightest intention to solve this problem by Microsoft, since it is understood that each end-user settings, is completely independent of the configuration that should be the default Server or System Confg.

How to adjust ALV size in ITS application? Please Help!

Hi Experts,
I have a ABAP program that shows a ALV report using function module - REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.
This ABAP program I have web enabled using ITS (SICF transaction).
When I see the ALV on the browser, It has only 10 rows but still vertical and horizontal scrollbars are dislayed for the ALV itself. Moreover the horizontal scrollbar is shown near the browser status bar. So Unnecessarily blank space is shown in the ALV after 10 rows.
I have even tried ~ALVGRIDPAGESIZE = 10. But it has no affect. I am using SAP 6.20.
So how to control the scrolling and ALV dispaly size?
Please help!
Thanks
Gopal
