Trying to Use Compressor to get a 24P appearance?

Hello
I made a dumb mistake and shot some footage in standard 29P (my other cameras were set for 24P)
I realize I might have a difficult task trying to make this 29P footage look like 24P
Graeme Nattress mentioned that I might be able to achieve some similarity by exporting using Compressor and advanced settings? But I'm not sure just exactly/what settings to do that?
Here's a screen shot;

Can you guys help with this?
I also have Magic Bullet - wonder if I can use this as well?
Thank you
Mike

Hello again Patrick
I guess you've been quite busy, but I appreciate your replies.
Thank you for your help and reply - I'm trying to understand your suggestions - please bear with me
"The only way you're gonna get your 30P material to feel EXACTLY like 24 is to run it at 24 and add a pulldown"
Patrick can you telll me please what do you mean by a 'Pull Down'?
I'm using FCP 5.1, and I've already captured these shots and saved them as a clip/segment within a FCP File. Now when you say, a 'Pull Down', are you referring to an export of what I already shot?
Or maybe it's another type of process?
Where do I do this pulldown? Would I do this in Magic Bullet's Frames? Or any other application which would allow me to convert 30P to 24P? Or do I do this right on the FCP timeline?
I already tried to use FCP Cine Tools, and converted some of it to 24P, but it does not look any different. It still does NOT look like the other 24P 'Film Look' footage shot with the other same cameras and set with the same aperture settings. It seems to me that I would have noticed a few frames dropped every second, if Cine Tools was working wouldn't you think?
And in answer to your question, a 20% slow down would be welcomed, if it will look more like the 24P stuff that it was supposed to be. The clips are short/brief and yes, I can get them to work with the other 24P clips just fine.
Hope you can help ....
Thanx
Mike

What is the problem? You only redeem it once.
If it shows $23.71, then you still have credit. Just buy something.
Not sure what your issue is.

When trying to use sharing, I get Connection Failed

When trying to use my OSX 10.75 laptop to access files on my OSX 10.6.8 laptop it says "Connection Failed". In the console, it says:
Finder: SharePointBrowser::handleEnumerateCallBack returned -6600
File sharing is turned on in the target computer. I have a user account setup for file sharing. That user account has read/write access setup.
I have tried to turn off sharing and turn it back on.
I have tried to remove the shared folders, make new folders and then share those new folders.
I have tried both guest access as well as access with a specific user account.
Nothing works. I get the error message above no matter what I do.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

I have downloaded Photoshop Elements demo version but when trying to use it I get a configuration error (number 16). I have a PC and Windows XP.

I have tried to uninstall and have down loaded again but I get the same error, does anyone know what to do?

Hi Helenak,
You might try creating a new user acct with admin right and try installing Elements from there.
This might help with the process:

When trying to use software update, get error NSURLErrorDomain error -1100

I don't know if this is a result of anything I did. It started happening after I installed the latest version of Garageband. When I went into that app, and selected one of the instruments, it directed me to use software update to get all the data for the instruments. That's when I first got the message box. Later, I uninstalled Garageband, and still the update problem continues. Obviously, when this problem first occurs, it will have been after installing *some* app, so I have no way of knowing whether Garageband is involved. I don't think I can update any of my applications until this problem is fixed.
The full text of the message box:
An error has occurred
The operation couldn't be completed.
(NSURLErrorDomain error -1100.)

Try this:
Fix for Software Update
See Troubleshooting Automatic Software Update in Mac OS X.
Delete the following files:
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
/Home/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.xxx.plist where "xxx" is a number.
/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate/ (delete entire folder)

Using JMX to get status information about NetWeaver cluster

Hi everybody,
We are trying to use JMX to get some status information about NetWeaver cluster.
For example, using the MBean with the name u201Ccom.sap.default:name=EL1,j2eeType=SAP_J2EEClusteru201D we can obtain the list of all instances running in cluster. Here an instance is a u201CJava instanceu201D in the NetWeaver terminology.
The method u201CgetInstanceNodeIDsu201D provides us with a list of all nodes of an instance.
Concretely, calling this method for a cluster running on one machine with two java processes, we get the following list of node Ids: u201C0, 1476420, 1476450, 1476451u201D where the last two correspond to the two java processes.
What are the first two node Ids from the list?
How can the last two node Ids be identified as java processes?
How can we obtain status information about each java process (node id) ?
Thanks for all ideas,
Radu

As there seems to be a lot of interest in this subject, and since I found some form of solution, I thought I'd share it with you.
In the es-cli interface, there is a thing called browse mode. Activate it by typing browse after logging in.
Now you can easily browse your network and all of the managed objects. Use getattributes at the end of each branch to see the properties of objects. So far, I've indexed all of the kernel reader module, the health monitor module, the common config reader and the config reader for workgroup servers. If my employer allows, I will post results to http://tille.garrels.be/training/sunmc/ - check later this week.

Tried to use messages with get started but it would not accept my apple id

I'm guessing it needs a password to update your system - that is, the administrator password. Most software needs this when you install it.
This is the password you (or someone) chose when you first switched on your computer.

Closed Captioning using Compressor to output HD video

Has anyone tried to use Compressor to insert a scc closed caption file in a 1080p 23.98fps pro res file, then output it using Kona or Black Magic for broadcast specification?
Knowing that Kona nor black magic does NOT allow you to add a scc file to a HD 23.98fps file, is there as solution to make a Broadcast HD caption tape?

You need to use MACCAPTION to encode QT files with the .scc file. You can't do it with Compressor. QT has a CC track, but you need the right application do to it. MacCaption is the best option. Sorry, it isn't cheap...but it works well.

Using applescript to get iCal to open a file

I'm trying to use AppleScript to get iCal to open a Word doc at a specified date/time.
As a complete novice to AppleScript, I'm sure I have misunderstood how the syntax and grammar of the language work. Would you please advise me how to change this script --
set filepath to POSIX path of "Microsoft Word:Users:mtmanner:Documents:Family JY & Friends:Craig:Craigs Goals:Socializing:Being with people.doc"
try
set command to "open Users/mtmanner/Documents/Family JY & Friends:Craig/Craigs Goals/Socializing/Being with people.doc"
do shell script command
end try
Thanks for your help.

There is a useful book called 'AppleScript for Dummies'. Don't be put of by the irritating title: it's actually quite sensibly written and informative (just ignore the occasional facetiousness designed not to frighten nervous readers off). When I was looking for a manual the other books available were much more expensive; I've found this one covers most requirements.
We had three weeks of heatwave: not it's gone unsettled again with rain (which we needed) and temperatures up and down loke the proverbial yo-yo - typical British summer, in other words.

I suspect you are attempting to burn an HD DVD, which will not play on a DVD player...
But if you provide more details such as the settings you are applying in Compressor, then we would be able to provide you more accurate information.
How are you adding the files to Compressor?
In FCP, what are your footage properties (command-9) and sequence settings (command-0)

Im having a problem with the dvd quality, I'm using compressor to convert the video fils from apple prores to mpeg2 .It doesn't matter how long my video is even if its just 5 minutes I'm getting cut edges/lines in the video specialy if i have titles it comes up really bad , I took the same video to a friend of mine who have PC and he uses Encore , did the encoding there and it was just fine no problems! BTW I tried using doferent setings in compressor from CBR and VBR I even pushed up the setings to 8 or 9 BR and still no luck !
does anyone have any idea ?
Thanks in advence ...

Let's focus attention on just the Sony. (What model and what resolution are you shooting?)
For now, I'll assume you're shooting 1080i.
Take a representaive clip into a new sequence. Add a title.
In your sequence, make sure field dominance is set to Upper.
Set render settings to Pro Res 422.
After rendering, export QT self contained.
Import into Compressor (I'm now referring to v3.5).
Select the 90 minute Best quality DVD preset.
Open frame controls and turn on (click the gear icon). Set Resize filter to Best.
Submit burn and check quality on TV.
Good luck.

HT1925 I get a message saying The feature I am trying to use is on a network resource that is unavalable when I try to open iTunes.

When I try to open iTunes a widow appears called Windows Installer. It tells me that the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavalable. It tell me to Click OK or try again or enter an alternative path to a folder containing the intallation package iTunes.msi. I suggests I should find this in a drop down box in the window. There is a box but no folder iTunes.msi. If I click the cancel button iTunes will open and work. I wish to uninstall iTunes and then reinstall it. I am finding that I can play music on iTunes OK through my sound card but if I try to play streamed music from the web in YouTube and fom My Space the music is a poor quality with crackles and distortion. Other forums suggest uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing it. I ahve tried to uninstall iTunes but it comes up with the Window noted above and then stops. I need to stop the crackle when streaming music. Please help.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
