Using firewire to output presentation

Hi
Odd question this i know... but is it possible to use firewire to output from keynote (either just a mirror of the screen or as a second screen)? Intending on connecting this to a DV recorder.
Thanks
Rob Kettridge

No, I don't know of any way to output Keynote via FireWire.

    I would appreciate it if someone could advise me as to the optimum resolution, dimensions and dpi for actual photographic slides that I am scanning for use in a Keynote Presentation, that will be projected in a large auditorium. I realize that most projectors in auditoriums that I will be using have 1024 x 1200 pixels, and possibly 1600 x 1200. There is no reference to this issue in the Keynote Tutorial supplied by Apple, and I have never found a definitive answer to this issue online (although there may be one).
                Here’s my question: When scanning my photographic slides, what setting, from 72 dpi to 300 dpi, would result in the best image quality and use up the most efficient amount of space? 
                Here’s what two different photo slide scanning service suppliers have told me: 
    Supplier No. 1 tells me that they can scan slides to a size of 1544 x 1024 pixels, at 72 dpi, which will be 763 KB, and they refer to this as low resolution (a JPEG). However, I noticed when I looked at these scanned slides, the size of the slides varied, with a maximum of 1.8 MB. This supplier says that the dpi doesn’t matter when it comes to the quality of the final digital image, that it is the dimensions that matter.  They say that if they scanned a slide to a higher resolution (2048 x 3072), they would still scan it at 72 dpi.
    Supplier No. 2: They tell me that in order to have a high quality image made from a photographic slide (starting with a 35 mm slide, in all cases), I need to have a “1280 pixel dimension slide, a JPEG, at 300 dpi, that is 8 MB per image.” However, this supplier also offers, on its list of services, a “Standard Resolution JPEG (4MB file/image – 3088 x 2048), as well as a “High Resolution JPEG (8 MB file/image – 3088x2048).
    I will be presenting my Keynotes with my MacBook Pro, and will not have a chance to try out the presentations in advance, since the lecture location is far from my home, so that is not an option. 
    I do not want to use up more memory than necessary on my laptop.  I also want to have the best quality image. 
    One more question: When scanning images myself, on my own scanner, for my Keynote presentations, would I be better off scanning them as JPEGs or TIFFs? I have been told that a TIFF is better because it is less compressed. 
    Any enlightenment on this subject would be appreciated.
    Thank you.

    When it comes to Keynote, I try and start with a presentation that's 1680 x 1050 preset or something in that range.  Most projectors that you'll get at a conference won't project much higher than that and if they run at a lower resolution, it's better to have the device downsize your Keynote.  Anything is better than having the projector try and upsize your presentation... you work hard to make it look good, and it's mangled by some tired Epson projector.
    As far as slides go, scan them in at 150 dpi or better, and make them at least the dimensions of your presentation.  Keynote is really only wanting 72dpi, but I do them at 150, just in case I need to print out the presentation as a handout later, and having the pix at 150 dpi gives me a little help with their quality on a printer.
    You'd probably have to drop in the 150 versions again if you output the Keynote to .pdf or Word or something, but at least you have the option.
    And Gary's right (above) go ahead and scan them as TIFFs.  Sooner or later you'll want to do something else with these slides (like make something for an iPad or the like) and having them as TIFFs keeps your presentation looking good.
    Finally, and this is a big one, get to the location for your presentation ahead of time if you can, and plug the laptop in and see what you get.  There's always connection problems. Don't let the AV bonehead tell you everything will work just fine ('... I don't have any adapters for a Mac...') .  See it for yourself... you're the one that's standing up there.  Unless it's your boss, then you better be really sure it works.

  • Firewire video output in high def?

    Hi all,
    I currently use a Canopus ADVC110 to firewire-output my video inside Logic to my beamer in "lo res" PAL DV format. However, the beamer supports up to 720p HD resolution so I'd like to have a firewire video output device than can handle this higher output resolutions (eg through HDMI or component). Canopus doesn't seem to have any capable products.
    Anyone know of any options?
    Or does it not exist due to limitations I'm not aware of?
    Thanks!

    assimilation is the bomb. the bomb.
    i have been playing it repeatedly from the demo player at symphobia. i think i heard about 2 bars of it and by mouse automatically went to the buy button.
    i have to tell you i am the stingiest bloke out there when it comes to buying stuff for the studio. i could end buying all manner of stuff and have a huge amount of things that i hardly use or don't have time to learn that could be covered by other things i do have. i keep a very basic setup and prefer to design my own sounds from scratch. i (we) have recorded quite a few orchestral FX we like to use, but there is never enough. symphobia is going to perfect for my next 2 projects - one of which is a very big one. unfortunately it may not arrive in time. there will be live records in prague but it won't cover everything and i am a little concerned by the reports i have heard from the other composer on the project.
    there will be some london recordings but they will sweetening only.
    sorry to hijack your thread BTW. i have long admired your music and this was the first opportunity to tell you so.

  • FCP + Motion: sharing Firewire video output

    When developing in both FCP and Motion, I am using the Firewire video output to view my work on an external monitor.
    This works fine when I work in each program separately.
    But, when I have both programs simultaneously open and drag a Motion project directly into FCP, FCP gives me the error telling me that the Firewire video output is already being used for Motion.
    Is there a way to seamlessly switch the Firewire output between the two programs when both programs are running concurrently?
    My only solution now is to save the Motion project; close Motion; open FCP; and import the Motion project into FCP.
    Is there a better way?
    Thanks, in advance, for any ideas.

  • Unable to import FCE movie captured using firewire

    We are using firewire output from Sony 2100 camera and cpturing it using Final Cut Express, however when using Final Cut Pro X to import the movie,
    FCP X crashes.  Tried many options on the import menu, however are resulted in the same thing, crash.
    Removing the audio from the movie FCP X accepted the movie with no problem.  If Final Cut Express can import the same movie with no problem way
    can't the new Final Cut Pro X do the same.  We need help, Thanks.

    Can you open the file in QuickTime Player?
    If so, click Window/Inspector, and tell us what video and audio codecs are listed by "format:".
    If the audio and video formats look ok, then I would check for chapter tracks, closed captioning tracks, etc. Extra tracks would make the movie uneditable in iMovie.

  • Can I use firewire to transfer everything from my Macbook Pro (Intel Core 2 Duo 2.25 GHz) to the new iMac (2.5GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5)?

    I have a MacBook Pro to use at work. It has everything (all genuine softwares, server connection etc). The company is using a contract IT company so connecting to the server and setting email is real issue with me as this IT people can't configure Mac. Last time it took them 1 week to set up everything for me ( me one the phone with them as they aren't coming to our office - they only use QuickViewer to get access to my laptop).
    Now the company is buying me an iMac so that I can use the laptop at home. Can I use firewire to transfer everything to the new iMac so that I don't waste my time installing softwares & calling this IT people to set up my email and connection to the server again? If it works do I have to enter serial numbers in again for all the softwares or I have to buy new softwares (I know with Adobe CS - I can only install in one computer)?
    Thanks in advance.

    If you want to use the adobe suite on the imac you will have to deactivate it on the MBP or it will show up as being used. That is if you can only install it on one computer. Some licenses you can install it on 2 computers but it has to say that on the cd key tag.
    Sorry to hear about your bad experience with the contractors. It is not that hard to get stuff like that up and running on the mac.

    I just downloaded Pocket Light Meter.  After I turn on the additional settings, I can see foot candles , however when I compare it to my actual light meter to check the validity of the Pocket Light Meter, they are way off.    Any idea how to calibrate it or to check if possibly I am doing something wrong??

  • Can I put a SQL query into a bind variable and then use it to output report

    Hi,
    Can I put a SQL query into a bind variable and then use it to output report?
    I want to create a report and an item "text area" (say P1_TEXT) which can let user to input a SQL query(they are all technical users and knows SQL very well). Then, I use a bind variable (that text area) to store the SQL statement. Then, I add a submit button and I want to use the following to output the report:
    select * from (:P1_TEXT);
    Do you think it is possible to do that? Any known limitations for APEX in this area?
    Thanks a lot,
    Angela

    You can, but make sure it's what you really want to do. Make sure you are VERY familiar with SQL Injection. Most people who know what it is, go out of their way to prevent SQL Injection. You're going out of your way to allow it.
    You can try using &P1_TEXT. instead of bind variable syntax. Bind variables are one of the best ways to prevent SQL Injection, which is why it's not working for you.
    Once again, I strongly urge you to consider the implications of your app, but this suggestion should get it working.

    No reason to be embarassed. You are not alone.
    You will need an external drive. If you have a Time Machine drive without enough disk space you can create the clone there however it's advised that you keep your Time Machine and clone on separate drives. If the drive dies you loose both types of backup.
    Download and install the clone software. Everyone has their favorite. These are the two most common applications used. I prefer SuperDuper because of it's simplicity in setting up. It's also free for the first clone where with CCC you have to give a Credit Card then cancel if you do not want to keep.
    SuperDuper! http://www.shirt-pocket.com/

    Select your drive in the To popup. Click on Copy Now. That's it.
    Yes, it really is that simple....

  • What is FireWire and what FireWire adapter do I need to use FireWire 800 for my portable external hard drive ?

    Hi guys, I'm new to Mac. I have a MacBook Pro 13" (late 2011) with Lion OS and Parallels 7 (Windows 7). My understanding is that there is FireWire connection / extension built in to the MacBook Pro already. I also have a Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex portable external hard drive 750GB USB2.0 and 3.0 (that can be used for PC and Mac). It states that the portable external harddrive is FireWire 800 compatible. The questions are (1) how does FireWire works ? (2) how do I use or activate FireWire 800 ? (3) is there any setup / setting changes I need to on my MacBook Pro ? (4) what FireWire adapter do I need to purchase to connect my portable external harddrive to my MacBook Pro ? Is it expensive ?
    I read a few articles online but they are too technical for me. They mentioned something about FireWire adapter with 6 pins or 9 pins. Not sure what that means. I'm totally confused. So any help, advise or guidance will be much appreciated. In Layman's term would be better. Thanks.
    How about Thunderbolt ? Is it compatible with the above external portable hard drive mentioned ? Do I need a Thunderbolt adapter for it ? How do I activate or use Thunderbolt ?

    Thanks, Clinton and Alberto.
    The below link is the Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex portable external hard drive (product code STAA750302) that I have. It states that it features USB 2.0 or 3.0 plug–and–play connectivity and easily upgradeable to USB 3.0, FireWire 800 or eSATA. It only comes with a 18-inch USB 3.0 / 2.0 backward compatible cable.
    http://www.seagate.com/au/en/external-hard-drives/portable-hard-drives/standard/ goflex/
    Based on the above, my understanding is that I need to buy a FireWire 800 adapter to connect to the portable external hard drive so that I can use FireWire 800 with my MacBook Pro. Is this correct ? Do I need to get a separate cable as well or can I just use the 18-inch USB 3.0 / 2.0 backward compatible cable that was provided in the box ? If so, what sort of FireWire 800 cable do I need to get ? 9 pin to 9 pin ? 6 pin to 9 pin ? Or 4 pin to 9 pin ?

  • AC Power stops when using s-video output

    This only happens when using the s-video output. It usually takes about an hour before the ac power adapter stops working then the powerbook switches to battery power.
    For all other times when not using the video output, it would work normally [ i could leave the ac power plugged in for weeks without this problem occuring ].
    Is there a way to fix this when using the s-video output.

    If you know someone with another 65W power adapter I would try using it to see if it does the same thing. If it doesn't then you know to buy a new power adapter.

  • HT3231 Is it better to migrate to a new MacBook Pro using FireWire, from Time Machine, or over ethernet?

    Hello,
    Is it better to migrate to a new MacBook Pro (non Retina display) using FireWire, from Time Machine, or over ethernet? The older Mac is a MacBook (Intel, 2007 vintage). The Time Machine backup is to a Western Digital external drive with FireWire & USB ports.
    Thanks!
    Chips

    Thanks for the helpful reply.
    After posting, I read & researched further. We're going to be limited by the hardware – the MacBook & external drive both have FireWire 400, & we don't have a 400 to 800 cable or adapter. So we'll connect by ethernet, & be patient that it make take some time.
    I have to assume that Migration Assistant will be just as comprehensive regardless of the connection method / protocol.
    Best!
