Unable To Use DVDSP4 Presets for HD-DVD in the H.264 Format

I recently prepared a 23 minute slide show using Fotomagico from high resolution Hasselblad slides scanned in at 1200 dpi. Within Fotomagico I rendered the Fotomagico slide show to Apple ProRes 422 HQ, took it into Final Cut Pro 6.03 and added an intro and closing section. I then sent this to Compressor and selected the 30 minute HD-DVD preset which uses mpeg2. All went fine with the encoding to mpeg2 and I got a successful build and format out of DVDSP4 after importing the resulting .m2v file into DVDSP4. However, while the disk plays back fine in my Mac Pro it plays back with stuttering (audio and video) on my Toshiba HD-A2 HD-DVD player. I used a Verbatim Datalife DVD+R, but several other discs from other manufactuers including a DVD-R disc showed the same problem.
Please note that I have the latest firmware on my Toshiba HD-A2 and I have successfully burned RL HD-DVD discs using my PC and Windows software (Ulead's DVD Movie Factory 6+) which play fine without stuttering on my HD-A2.
I then decided to send the project to Compressor and use the 60 minute HD-DVD preset that encodes to H.264. Once again Compressor successfully executed the encode of my 23 minute slide show and it plays fine in QuickTime or MPEG StreamClip. However, every time I try and import this .mov file encoded in H.264 using the Compressor preset for HD-DVD into DVDSP4, DVDSP4 brings it in to the assets folder, but after a couple of seconds DVDSP4 crashes. Using console I get a message that DVDSP4 quit unexpectedly due to a "segmentation fault".
I also tried to take the ProRes Fotomagic project in Final Cut Pro 6.02 and send it out with Quicktime Conversion using the H.264 codec. Again I have a file that plays fine in QT, but when I try and import this .mov file into DVDSP4, I get the message "imcompatible format".
In summary, I am completely frustrated after many many hours of work at trying to prepare an HD-DVD on red laser of my slide show in DVDSP4. I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong, and I would be most appreciative of any suggestions anyone may have.
Thanks in advance.
Tom

Am I the only person who has ever tried to use the Presets in Compressor 3 for encoding HD-DVD disks? I would like to use these presets for burning HD-DVD's to standard red laser media as I have done on my PC. With the mpeg2 Preset I can get nothing but stuttering video when played back on my Toshiba HD-A2 and when I use Compressor 3 to encode with either of the H264 presets, the resulting .mov file causes DVDSP4 to crash when I import the file. Has no one else experienced this? Does anyone have any thoughts on addressing these issues other than to go back to working on my PC?
Tom

    I looked at KB25882 and my settings are good, so that didn't help.
    I had this problem over a year ago, and someone at RIM found a bit set that shouldn't have been set and fixed it (that is my terminology for what happened).
    I am really looking for a way to contact RIM directly.  I hate going through the mill with my carrier to get it escalated to RIM for resolution......  <sigh>
    Hi mgpainter 
                                Most easiest way to Contact RIM is through your Carrier but as you don't prefer that than there is another way of support called Incident Based Support but just want to inform you that its not free.If you want have a try  BlackBerry Incident Based Support .

    after downloading new version of Firefox 4 I am unable to use touch pad for scrolling. I have tried installing and uninstalling the new version but this problem has always been occuring. I do not know how to fix this problem so I always return to the old version.

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop

    i havent used my ipod for sometime and forgotten the 4 digit passcode what can i do

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone and iPod touch software.
    If the issue continues after updating and restoring your device, refer to this document.

  • Why do I get an error message saying unable to use disk when creating a DVD

    I have successfully burned two DVD's of a group of three I am burning of my last vacation pictures. I have successfully created WMV files for each day of the trip which I have combined to create the three DVD's so they won't be too lengthy. I created a menu with main menu and stop menu markers. When I went to burn the third disk, which is the shortest of the group the program would encode to the 96% and then the disk would eject and it would give an errow message saying the disk was not compatable. This was the same type of DVD-RW disks I used on the two successful disks. I tried redoing the burn 3  times with each time getting to 96% on the encription and then the same error message occurred. I used fresh disks each time. On the forth try I cut the number of WMV files down to 3 to make the DVD half as long. The same thing happened at the 96th% spot of the encription process. Nothing had ever been put on the disks. I am using top quality Memorex DVD-RW disks. Please let me know what else I can do. I am very frustrated. Oh yes, I closed the program down each time I got the error and also shut down and restarted the computer afer each error. I really want to finish this project as I have been working on it now for two weeks non stop. Thank you.

    Good, that gets one possibility out of the way.
    Since the error about the disc indicates that the Transcoding has already finished, I think that we can probably rule out the next step, but let's look anyway.
    Now, for Transcoding to DVD, PrE uses 2-pass Encoding, so it would seem that this problem is comng right at the end of the second pass, at the end of the Timeline. Look very closely at that point, and see if there is anything odd there. Things like gaps in the Video of a Timeline, or sometimes Assets that are not proper, can cause Transcoding to stop. Anything there? [I think that with a disc error, Transcoding HAS completed, and the progress bar is just lagging slightly behind, but more questions are probably needed.]
    Last, what brand of blank media are you using? The reason that I ask this is that some companies, like Memorex, buy the cheapest disc that day, and rebrand them, so in a spindle of 25, you might end up with blank discs by different mfgrs., and some can be much better, than others.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

    It doesn't appear to be listed as a dependency in the developer docs, but would you try putting the ReportPrinter.jar in your RAS app?

  • HT1807 I travelled to a different country & using a new sim; with the change in sim, I have been unable to use iMessage & FaceTime. Cant replace replace the earlier no with the current one and it reads error. how to correct this?

    I traveled to a different country and using a new sim/new carrier. With the change in the sim, I have been unable to use the iMessage--outside of WiFi coverage area, and FaceTime at all time. I believe it is due to the phone number registered as an address in the phone, which has not changed with the change of sim; so it countinues to showing as an error while varifying the data.
    Wonder if any of you are in a position to advise as to how to address the following.
    1. I need to input correct phone no, meaning the number I am using in the correct location.
    2. I need to activate FaceTime and be able to use it.
    3. I need to be able to use iMessage and/or ordinary sms while outside of WiFi coverage area.
    It may be mentioned in my current location I don't have GPRS on the cell phone which is the case in my regular station.
    Thanks for your help.

    ...and results in yield signs indicating an error:
    Hi Wayne,
    Yield signs must be different in Texas. Here (and in much of the rest of the world) they're white with a red border, and installed with an apex pointing down:
    Some still include the word "Yield" (or in Quebec, "Cedez"in black letters.
    Maybe you're thinking of the "Warning triangle", which is similar, but installed base down, and often including a symbol in the white space:
    These are more common in Europe, with the exception of the portable version, which I've seen used at road construction sites or as 'flares' to warn of a disabled vehicle on the road.
    Or maybe you were thinking of this
    (Most of these 'slow moving vehicle' triangles have an orange center. This one looked a bit more 'Texas,' though.)

  • Diary of my painful attempts to use a program for which I have the license

    Hi: I will summarize my painful experience with Excelsius 2008 in the following diary
    4-2011:
    Excelsius 2008 is working OK in the computer where it is installed.
    (5 months pass by)
    9-2011:
    Excelsius 2008 shows that there is  a "mising or inactive" license and it does not run.
    We contact SAP to get information on how to solve this issue.
    Many emails go back and forth. Next goes an excerpt of one of them:
    10-11-2011:
    "I have tried to reinstall and then run the update.  I still receive the same error message.  I went into control panel> add/remove programs>xcelsius 2008 to try and repair it and I receive the same error message.  Its strange that even when I try to remove it the program I receive the error message.  Help?"
    10-20-2011:
    I am trying to reinstall my Excelsius 2008. The program is looking for a file called "xcelsius.msi" but it doesnot locate it. I direct the path to the place where the file is located. The program tells me that is not the one I am supposed to find.
    I cannot unistall the program. I cannot use it either.
    10-21-2011:
    I try to install the program from scratch in another computer following instructions given by SAP.
    The program asks for key code activation. Enter the 26 characters string of data and program says that activation key code is not valid.
    Try replacing the 0 for O, in all possible combinations, same message is displayed.
    I need to use Xcelsius 2008 for my work, I have a valid license, and the program is not working.
    Can anybody help??
    Thank you,
    extremely unhappy customer

    Maiko,
    I'm confess I'm still trying to get a handle on your problem. You do a fantastic job of describing it ... but I'm just trying to picture it accurately in my head.
    I think, were I in your shoes, I'd begin by looking at what the debug page has to say for the specific destination in which you're interested in fixing. In other words, I'm not clear on where, exactly, this destination points ...
    Destination illinois.edu.1945806043
    Is that your site, or the division within your site that you want to fix? "Normally", you do not need to specify a site handle to get to your site within your transfer CGI ... if you say "uillinois.edu", it's enough to transfer your users to iTunes U ... but every site still has a handle, and you could, if you wanted to, actually specify it in your transfer CGI. For example, this:
    Destination uic.edu.1139051993
    is for my entire site ... it's my site handle. Whereas this:
    Destination uic.edu.1991288441
    is for a division within my site ... but it's impossible to tell the difference between "site" and "division" from just the handle (I mean, if I didn't say "this is a site" and "this is a division", there'd be no way for you to know). So when I look at your creds and permissions on your debug page, I can't quite tell if they give you download access for your site, or for the specific division you want to fix. If you could open the debug page with your division as destination (or confirm that that's what we're looking at), it'd rule out some things.

  • Using 1 dataset for multiple tables in the report

    All,
    Say I have a stored procedure with some parameters and the result set looks like this:
    State   ACount    BCount     Description
    VA           10            20           Category1
    TX           15            25           Category1
    VA           30            40           Category2
    TX           40            50           Category2
    NY           5              5             Category3
    NJ           10            10           Category3
    Now, what I want is 3 separate tablixes (tables) in my report using my stored procedure (just 1 dataset for all these tables). I want the result to be dispalyed something like this:
    Category1 (1st tablix)
    State   ACount    BCount     Description
    VA           10            20           Category1
    TX           15            25           Category1
    Category2 (2nd tablix)
    VA           30            40           Category2
    TX           40            50           Category2
    Category3 (3rd tablix)
    NY           5              5             Category3
    NJ           10            10           Category3
    I want Category1, Category2 and Category3 to be 3 different tablixes in my report using the same stored procedure.
    How can I accomplish that? Let me know if you have any questions.

    Hi SqlCraze,
    I also design the report using Report Designer. So you can directly do the same steps as I post.
    In the fourth step that "Insert the corresponding fields to the second table" means directly insert State, ACount, BCount and Description fields. Please note that the list control is used to split one table into several tables based on the
    Description group: one table only displays the values when Description=Category1, one table only displays the values when Description=Category2, another table only displays the values when Description=Category3. We needn't add filters in the table, just add
    the list.
    For more information about the list control in Reporting Services, please refer to the following blog:
