Understanding audio minutes vs total file size

I'm trying to figure out the relationship between audio minutes and total file sizes, when burning files from my library to an audio CD.
I'm using 700 MB CDs, which, on the labels, indicate 80 minutes. The selections I want to burn total 6 hours of audio, but only 560 MB of data, as shown at the bottom of the playlist.
Is the total amount I can burn really limited to the number of minutes?

When burning AudioCDs your are limited to those 80 min.
If burning MP3 disks your are not limited by playtime but filesize (approx 680 MB)

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 get the library items total file size

Hi All,
I want to get the total file size of the library and count how many file in library.
would I use getItemsRequest can get them?
or have another ways to do that?
Thank You
Jimmy

Sorry, I don't have any ideas.
Just so you know, the document management support is the lowest priority.
There are not any active enhancements planned for document management.
We added some support in 12.0.x for WebAccess, but there is none planned
further.

Web Inspector how to see total file size transferred to browser

Hi
After seeing several tutorials with Safari 4/5 I have bin looking for the total file size that is transferred to the browser when loading a website.
These statistics where easy to find on the old Web Inspector. Does anyone know where I can find this now?
It would be a very big help! Thank you for your time!

Does ScriptingListener.plugin record AM code for this specific step?
No. When you specify the desired file size, PS immediately computes the required compression/quality value necessary to achieve that desired size. The AM code has only that computed Quality value and not the desired file size.
In other words, you still can't programmatically specify the desired file size.
As far as slices, I don't have a clue. I've never had the need to use them.

SharePoint workspace shows error of the total file size limitation has been reached

Hi,
An error occurs while syncing to a doc library :
why I am having this error can you please advise?
How can I avoid this in future?

Hi Tim,
Thanks for your reply mate!
surprisingly, my work space syncs all other files that I added after, but it does not sync only this file which was uploaded by my colleague.
if it is the case of reaching file size limit, How can I increase my workspace limit to add some more files in the same doc library.
Thanks for your consideration.
Thanks,

Discrepancies in total file size report between v$asm_file and dba_data_files

Hi Friends,
I have an issue, where there are differences of around (70 GB - 90 GB) between what v$asm_file is reporting and what dba_data_files reports. (I have taken TEMP files into account as dba_data_files does not report TEMP files), but still there are differences. Does any one know why is that ? I have checked two RAC installations and its the same in both of them.
Regarsd,
Rose

Can you give the output of :
select * from dba_data_files;
select * from v$asm_file;

Audio (PPC) File Size

Hello. We have been working with Adobe Presenter to create
presentations/lectures which we ultimately upload to our University
Adobe Connect server. We have been seeing some very annoying
problems with the size of the audio (PPC) file.
On one system, I recorded a lecture that had 60 slides and 60
minutes of audio. The PPC file size is roughly about 30MB.
On another system, I recorded 18 slides with 23 minutes of
audio. The PPC files size is roughly 130MB.
I then took the 2nd presentation I created (130MB) and
attempted to split it into two presentations to get smaller lecture
sizes. I did this via Adobe Presenter and PowerPoint. I cut the
presentation into two presentations, A and B. I then had 2 audio
(PPC) files per part (A & B). The very strange thing was that
the size of the PPC file for each of them (130MB) was the same as
it was when they were combined (130MB). I would think it should
have been less, roughly half but it stayed identical. If I looked
at the audio for part A and then for part B via the 'Audio Editor'
it showed just their audio (so half the minutes as the original)
but why is the size of the audio file the same as the combined
version?
One both the systems I am using to create/record these
presentations, I am running Windows XP with Office 2003. Also, on
each system, the audio quality level is the same.
Please let me know what you think. I appreciate the help.

Bob,
I would guess that the file size has mostly to do with the
audio file that was used and what it's recording quality setting
was.
In the end does the PPC file size cause any problems? The
audio may be in WAV format which is good quality but large. When
published the audio is converted to MP3 so the file size should
drop.

DVDSP audio file size

I'm building a four hour program in DVDSP 3.02. I import an AIFF audio file made in compressor thats 136 MB. The video file is 2.6 GB. When I import the audio file into DVDSP it says the audio file is now 2.06 GB and my total file size is now too big to fit on a standard dvd!
What gives?
W.

Walt.
The use of uncompressed AIFF audio is not recommended for DVD usage. You need to convert that AIFF file to an AC3 (Dolby). It will greatly reduce the filesize while not sacrificing quality. Uncompressed audio will also take up a lot of bandwidth on your DVD as well.

Exporting a smaller file size

I have a client who wants me to upload his 2 min acting reel to a web site that requires the reel to be 15 MB at the most. I have no idea how to get a video that small. It seems to me that the quality would be horrible, but that's what they're asking for. I have uploaded videos to youtube that requires under 100 MB that's no problem. The smallest video I could create from 2 min was about 50 MB. Does any who know how to get videos that small?
Thank You
Vince

In the custom options area of the settings, the things that will make the difference are the keyframing and the "limit data rate" settings. I usually set my keyframes to about 1/2 my frame rate. I think this defaults to "none" which will greatly increase file size. The "limit data rate" setting will force the average data rate below a certain limit, which can help put a ceiling on the total file size. The final file will be a bit larger because of the audio data.
If you are testing different settings, Compressor is great for this because you can save custom presets, and queue up a load of tests from a single source. I recommend testing with a 6-second piece, because you can multiply the result by 10 to figure the file size or encoding time per minute.
Hope this helps -

ITunes(7.3.1) Issues. File size adjustments. Burning to CD

I notice that there seems to be issues with 7.3.1 perhaps this is one.
Main Issue. I have 'imported' some mp3 files of non copyright speeches from an mp3 CD into my library .I would like to re-burn these (Using Toast 8.0.1) to a single CD but the total files size is 811.9MB, too big for an mp3 CD.
I copied these files into a folder and tried re-importing them individually using the import function experimenting with different settings in Preference>advanced>importing>custom but to no purpose. The file sizes remain stubbornly as they were.
Secondary Issue. I notice that inserting an mp3 CD into the mac does not result in it being recognised nor playing automatically even though the preferences have been set to "Begin Playing on CD insert".
I have visited the usual suspects, Discussions , iTunes support but to no avail...why don't the files reduce in size when I set the system to do so...each file imported individually...the help material is quite specific but dinada!
Life is too short; any passing Samaritan?

Because you are not changing anything with files.
When you use Import for MP3, AIFF, WAV, AAC or Apple Lossless, it simply adds the file to iTunes.
If you want to convert them, set your *iTunes prefs* -> Advanced - Importing to what you want to convert to.
Select the file in iTunes, then menu Advanced -> *Convert selection to* {what is in yoru prefs}.
Importing only converts audio CD to what is set in *iTunes prefs* -> Advanced - Importing.
*Secondary Issue. I notice that inserting an mp3 CD into the mac does not result in it being recognised nor playing automatically even though the preferences have been set to "Begin Playing on CD insert".*
Begin playing on CD insert applies only to audio CDs.
If you want to add these files to iTunes, use File -> Add to library.

Project file size

Is there an easy way to determine what your project file size is before you burn to video. I have 1 hour 15 mins of video which should write Ok to a 4.7Gb dvd but adding the audio seems to take the whole project over the dvd file size limit. is this correct? and how do I find out what the total file size is on completionY
Thanks for any help.

In iMovie, select your project then click on Share > Export Movie.
At the end of each row of the varying sizes there is an i - information button.
Place your cursor over this to see the file size.
In iDVD, once you have loaded your project, click on Project > Project Info.
Here you will see the duration and file size and how it fits onto the disc in 'Capacity'.
I would advise you (in this window) to bump the Encoding up to 'Professional Quality'.
Best,

Files sizes too big when I burn CDs

I am fairly new to itunes and the imac. It seems that file sizes are pretty big when I burn a CD to itunes and are going to take up my ipod nano quickly. For instance, a 10 song CD took up 423 MB. The import settings I have use the AAC Encoder option and the quality is 128 kbps. Should I be using different settings to get the copied song size down? If so, what do you recommend?
Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Please double check your import settings as the avg 4 minute song imported in AAC @ 128 should yield an approximate file size of 4mb, for a 10 song disc, 40mb. A total file size of 423mb really sounds like an uncompressed format such a Lossless, or AIFF. Also, verify the format/bitrate by ctrl-click on any song in iTunes, the "get info" . The summary tab at this point will give you the format/bitrate used to import the song. I just imported a 3 disc set tonight by "Genesis" in AAC @ 256kbps, the 40 songs on this set using the above settings only gave a total file size of 438mb.

Encoding for Encore from Premiere Pro - File Size

I'm working on a Blu-ray project that contains four separate tutorials, each with several individual clips. I exported each clip (chapter) out of After Effects CS6 using the standard H264 preset. The tutorials range from 2 to 5 hours each. After all was said and done, the total file size of all H264 video clips was just under 25GB, perfect for a Blu-ray burn.
I created four sequences in Premiere Pro, one for each tutorial. All of the H264 video files were brought into Premiere Pro, chapter markers were added, ready to rock.
When I attempted to export each sequence using the H264 Blu-ray preset, I found that using that preset would result in a grand total of about 75GB worth of data. So I selected the MPEG2 Blu-ray preset, and it was almost the same. I manually adjusted target bitrate settings, dropped quality to as low as it would go, and still the estimated file size far exceeded the 25GB I had available.
All tutorials total about 15 hours of 1280x720 30p content. I realize that's a ton of data, but AE exported all of this content using H264 and the grand total file size was under 25GB. But bringing those very same video clips into Premiere Pro, assembling them, and exporting them results in much, much larger files. I even attempted to import the AE exports directly into Encore to avoid having to re-encode anything, and still it estimated that the project's file size exceeded 75GB, even though the source footage of H264 video was less than 25GB.
Right now I'm down-rezzing all of the footage to 720x480 and the file sizes are smaller, although I'll still need to decrease the bit rates significant if I have any shot of dumping all of this onto a single 25GB Blu-ray.
I do realize that 15 hours is a lot for a single disc, but what I don't understand is how I can have 15 hours of H264 exported out of AE result in less than 25GB, but using that exact same footage in PPro/Encore results in over 75GB of footage.
Any insight would be appreciated.

The thing is, the AE exports look just fine. (The tutorials are just a bunch of screen capture/software stuff.) I didn't mess with any of the default preset settings for H264 out of AE, but yeah, they must've been encoded at pretty low bitrates.
I wasn't aware that BD specifications have minimum bitrate requirements, so that would explain why I'm unable to decrease the bitrates within PPro or Encore. Thanks for the info on that. I just figured as long as the footage was at least 720P with square pixel ratio encoded in H264 or MPEG2 I'd be fine, but apparently not!
The tutorials are for my own personal use, so I'm not too concerned about decreased resolution if I am able to make the SD content fit. Otherwise, yeah, burning multiple discs is my only option.
Thanks for the prompt feedback.

How to reduce image file size in spreadsheet

I have created a spreadsheet that contains cells with small amounts of text, and images that I brought in from the Media Browser from iPhoto. This has caused the file size to become HUGE, on the order of 234 MB. Saving it as a pdf only reduces it to 220 MB.
I have tried the Format>Image>Reduce Image File Size, as well as File>Reduce File Size, but in both cases, those options are grayed out.
What am I doing wrong? All I really want is thumbnail versions of my image files.
I don't understand what the Reduce Image File Size command would be used for, if it doesn't work for this?

When you insert a picture in a cell, it's used as a background.
To do that, the app keep it in a size allowing it to accomodate the larger cell size permitted.
If you want to get small images matching the cell size which you use, you must reduce the picture by yourself before inserting it. For instance, cells are often 72 * 16 pixels ones so you may reduce your pictures so that thir width become 72 pixels.
Of course, if the user enlarge the cell, the picture will become highly pixelated.
Look at this example.
In B4 is the original : 202 x 177 pixels
In C3 is the reduced one : 72 x 63
in B2 is the reduced one in a 202 x 177 pixels cell. It's awfully pixelized
We must arbitrate between size and quality.
