Transcoded a project probably 7 times now with different settings. Still producing screen flickers.

Hey everyone.
This is my first post. I'm still green in the industry and dont know all the intricasies of the ins and outs of encore, but I feel I have a decent grasp on what im doing...
Here's the scoop: Project is an hour and a half, frame rate at 29.97 with an anamorphic aspect. Classical guitar performance; very little movement, a couple camera angels, some pictures thrown in, simple stuff. Photoshop menus; no .mov files or audio in the menu... Every time I have transcoded I have ended up with blips, or flashes, or flickers throughout the project. Basically for a fraction of a second you see video from another part of the timeline. Like Tyler Durden's porn scene prank in the movie Fight Club.
I've tried automatic settings, 2 pass hq 4mb variable bit rate, 1 pass 8mb hq cbr, 2 pass 23.976 4mb (out of desperation, I know it's the wrong frame rate) constant bit rate at 6 mbs, and custom settings for vbr 2 pass and 1 pass vbr. I'm burning at 3x as well.
My next thought is transcoding at an even lower cbr like 3 mbps? I read that you can also transcode a project in multiple sections before a build. Would this be a worth while endeavor?
Any help or suggestions or comments I can get will be greatly appreciated. As you can imagine I need to get this done yesterday.
Thank you!

If you get a network timed out error, try disabling the security software on the computer during the download and install.
You can also try a direct download andinstall by:

View files on Time Capsule with 'different' Mac

After my install of Lion failed, the Apple Store did a clean install and renamed my MacBook (I can't remember the exact old name). Now I need a file off my Time Capsule backup but Time Capsule seems to be thinking the MacBook is not to have access to the existing backed up files because I see no way to gain access to them.
But my question is more general, How can I view and copy particular files residing on Time Capsule with a 'different' Mac? Can it be searched with a utility of some sort?
TIA, Allan

If you're talking about Time Machine backups, when your Mac's internal HD was erased, it's treated as a different drive -- and that drive is no longer connected. See #E3 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
Note that the name of your Mac doesn't matter; Time Machine uses a hardware address to keep track of it. Only if you get a new Mac or have the logic board (which contains the address) replaced, will that become a problem.

Use two Time Machine Drives with different settings?

Hello everybody, is it possible to use time machine with two drives and use different settings for each drive?
For example: at home I currently have two external LaCie d2 quadra drives. My plan is to leave one at home, and take one to Uni. On the drive which I have at home, I have backups of a secont parttion of the drive which I am taking to Uni, which contains some important files (about 500 GB). Is it possible to have a backup of that data partiton on the drive which I'm leaving at home, but not on the drive which I'm taking to uni?
I know that I can set up two drives to work simultaneously, but can I say to exclude folder A on drive A, but not on drive B?
Thanks a lot in advance

Thanks for the fast reply. II'll try to make things clearer. I have two drives (let's call them drive A and B). Drive A has one partition, and is my primary back up drive. Drive B has two partitions (one with files and one for Time Machine). Currently, the files partition of Drive B is being backed up to Drive A. When I connect drive B, Time machine asks me if I want to replace the existing drive, or use both. Using both is what I want. However, I don't need Drive B to back up the files from it's second partition, as that would not make any sense; I do, however, want drive A to back up the data partition from drive B. I guess the easiest way is to manually change the settings, or just live with a larger backup....

SSIS project - read multiple flat files with different formats

hi all,
i need to import multiple flat files with different formats into different tables of the sql server database and not able to figure out the best way out in ssis to do so...
please advise the possible methods in ssis to do so and if possible the process which can be dynamic as file names or columns might change in future.

Hi AK1987,
To import flat files with dynamic columns, we can use Script Task inside a Foreach Loop Container to parse the first row of the flat file to get the columns names and save them into a .NET variable, then, we can create “Create Table” script based on this
variable, and then store the script into a SSIS package variable. After that, we create a staging table based on the package variable, load the flat file data to the staging table. Eventually, we load data from the staging table to the destination table. For
the detail steps, please walk through the following blog:

Different qmaster segments compressed with different settings

I'm trying to compress video for a DVD using a render cluster. This splits it into segments.
I want it to be 30 frames progressive (that is, blend two 720P frames into one, and then split that frame into the two fields for the DVD).
After playing with the settings, I got it the way I want. But, when I watch the final DVD, it will occasionally have a few minutes (which I'm assuming is a Qmaster segment) which is 60 frames interlaced, which looks lousy for playback on a computer screen.
It's always different segments, sometimes more than one, and sometimes none.
I can't change the specified framerate, it's set to "Automatic" and grayed out, which clicking on the gear to the right of it won't unlock. I'm using a modified version of the 120-minute double-pass DVD preset.
I suppose I could compress it without Qmaster, but this would take an inordinate amount of time, since I'm producing about twenty 2-hour DVD's for an educational program, and I don't want to wait for 7 hours for each one to compress.
Before anyone asks, I completely uninstalled the entire final cut suite and re-installed it, and I have all of the newest updates for everything, including the OS and the Final Cut suite.
Why is compressor / qmaster doing this, and how do I get it to stop?

I want it to be 30 frames progressive (that is, blend two 720P frames into one, and then split that frame into the two fields for the DVD).
This statement makes no sense. If the original material is Progressive, there are no fields to be blended.
If you start with progressive material, you do not need to generate an interlaced file for the DVD. Most DVD players are perfectly capable playing back progressive material. If you are playing to a HDTV, you'll get a progressive feed. If a CRT device, you'll get an interlaced output.

Two adf components sharing same VO with different params on same screen

Hello everybody,
My current problem is that I need to create a screen with multiple graphs sharing the same VO but with different parameters for each one.
Lets suppose that I want to use EmployeesVO to show 2 graphs on the same jspx page.
One graph will show all employee salaries for department "Marketing" and another will show all employee salaries for department "IT".
Remember that I want both on the same screen.
The read-only VO will look like this:
SELECT First_Name
, Salary
FROM employees
WHERE department_id = :p_dept
To do this I did the following:
For each graph I created one Iterator.
For each Iterator I created one ExecuteWithParams. (one receiving "Marketing Depto" and anther receiving "IT Depto")
For each ExecuteWithParams I created one InvokeAction .
While running the application all graphs show the same information. All of them show only one department (the last InvokeAction in the Executables List).
The question is: How to keep each graph with their own parameter on the same screen?
I'm using JDeveloper 11.1.2.1 on Windows 7 x64 SP1.
Thanks in advance!

Why dont you add 2 instances of the same Vo in the AM. For each instance set the different VC.

Problems with my MacBook freezing and screen flickering

Feasability and approach? I want users to book "shared project calendar" open time slots with me to do a device upgrade.

Brought in for a limited short time / term project. I am seeking to minimize the amount of time spend making appointments with individual users who have been selected for a computer upgrade. 2 morning and two afternoon time slots are available
each day. How can I create a public calendar that I email in a link to a groups of users to select the one on one meeting time slot most convient for them to meet with me for the upgrade? Do I need to set myself up as a resource? Please advise or
suggest an appraoch. Thank you.

Hello,
I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the specific intricacy of your situation (a hosted domain at Outlook.com), and so do not know if indeed that is causal to your issues. But perhaps a workaround will be useful? For example, if you indeed use your hosted domain for your email, but create a true Outlook.com account for the use of only Calendar and Contact synchronization, then that might work?
You can find complete instructions here:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/General-BlackBerry-10-Smartphone/How-To-OTA-Sync-BB10-and-non...
For your email account, you simply use the domain they are hosting, and for Contacts/Calendar, the true Outlook.com account that you create for that purpose.
Good luck!

My Mac won't shutdown all the time now with Lion

I can't shutdown all the way now most times, the fans keep running. Sometimes it will shutdown all the way on its own but usually not.
Done the usuals to help it but no soap.
I'm so tired. Can't figure this one out. BTW never had this issue in Snow Leopard. Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

have you tried shutting down the laptop with the 'reopen windows when logging back in' unchecked?
i had this problem and it was something to do with an 'app' and the 'reopen windows at login' part of lion

JPEG images burned to DVD are viewed fine on my Macbook Pro, but my clients PC says the disk is blank. Have tried several times now with same result. Please help.

The JPEG images I have edited on my Macbook Pro and then burned to DVD view fine on my computer. But when I give the same disk to my client with a PC (Windows Vista), his computer says the disk is blank. I have tried several times, first I burned the entire folder to the DVD, then tried burning just the images (not in a folder), and I also tried renaming the disk (shorter name, six letters), but always with the same result. His PC says the disk is blank and needs to be formated.
Please help,
Tim

I used "finder" to select the files and move them to the mounted blank DVD then selected "Burn to DVD" it then asks you to name it, and says "this disk can be used on any mac or windows based computer" or something to that effect, and I click "Burn" and it burns and verifies the contents. But it hasn't worked so far.
I will try again the way you suggest (fingers crossed).
The problem is likely on the client's computer.
Some computers can't read certain brands of disks, same thing occurs on Mac's.
If you work with this client often you can find out which brand of disk works best with yours and their computers.

Migration Assistant stalls every time, even with different backups

I recently had the hard drive replaced on my 2009 intel iMac. I have tried using Migration Assistant to transfer user settings and applications from both the USB backup drive of the iMac as well as my Macbook Pro but in both cases, Migration Assistant stalls at either 1hr 47min ot 1hr 53min and doesn't progress past that point. I've let it continue for hours but it just doens't go any further than that.
I assumed it was coming to a corrupt file but now I'm not so sure as it does the same thing when I try migrating from my Macbook Pro, which is a completely differn't system.
Any suggestions? Next, I'm going to try just transferring applications to see if I have any luck with that.
Any way to transfer applications manually? I have so many, it would take days to re-download and install everything.

It may have completed the migration. Have you logged out and then looked for a new user account to see if your migration was completed?
