Video Clips.  Embed them or link them for faster loading?

Hello All,
Which method is better for iWeb (making the website load faster): I need to show some short video clips on the site I'm building, so should I embed the clips or just have a link that will redirect you to the site the has the clips (a site like Vimeo.com). Or does that make any difference in the loading time>
Thanks for your help.
Mike

I found the problem with the software. You can not use Acrobat Professional 7.0 with FrameMaker 8.0 or you will not be able to properly Distil the PDF and the video will only be an image of the first frame. You are not able to install the Distiller 8.0 add-on that comes with FrameMaker 8.0 with the Acrobat Professional 7.0 installed. The console error received when creating the PDF is:
"Save as PDF failed to post-process the PDF file for Flash Data: errors were encountered in the PDF file.
The PDF file should be intact and usable but may not reflow properly. Check that the destination PDF file is not in use or its permissions, then Save as PDF again. If the problem persists, please contact Adobe Technical Support."
The fix is to remove Acrobat Professional 7.0 permanently and install the FrameMaker add-on or to upgrade to Professional 8.0

  • I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac.  I want to divide some of those clips in Organizer.  I can do that in Premiere Elements 12 and save them as "Projects" - but how do I get the divided clips back into Organizer?

    I have old video clips in Photoshop Elements Organizer v12 for Mac.  I want to divide some of those single clips into 2 or 3 separate clips, each shown separately in Organizer.  I can divide the clips in Premiere Elements Editor 12 and save them as "Projects" - but I can't find any way to get those divided clips back into Organizer.  Does anyone know whether that can be done?  Many thanks for your thoughts.

    What about Google Drive? And just share the folder with the family members.

  • Does iWeb automatically compress photos for faster loading? Or should I do it first? Thx

    Hi everyone, when I look at the large photo in the "white" theme's Welcome template, I wonder when I drag and drop one of my photos in, does iWeb compress the photo for faster loading? Or should I compress them before adding to site?
    By "compress" I mean, make photo file size smaller! :)
    Thx! :)

    In iWeb Preferences you can optimze images on import. But I always scale most of my images to 800 x 600 pixels prior to importing. I do this in Graphic Coverter which also makes the image files smaller by taking unneeded information out of the file, which also reduces the file size.

  • Tuning OWB 10g Mappings for fast loading

    Hi,
    What are the various techniques in which I can tune my OWB mappings for optimized performance?
    Is it a good idea to increase my commit frequency from 1000 to say 25,000 to reduce I/O?
    What other parameters could be important to the fast loading of data?
    Thanks & Best Regards,
    Harshad Borgaonkar

    If you say loading, do you mean inserting?
    If so, I gather from the fact that for you the commit frequency is relevant, that you are not using set-based loading, which is the fastest way to load records. Any reason why you don't use set-based loading, or didn't you know that the commit frequency is irrelevant in that case?
    Kind regards,
    Jaap.

  • Can websites be optimized for faster loading?

    I have created a rather comprehensive website for nature, science and the environment in my region. I have tried to make it content rich with both text, links and photos for the broader, general population. I am,however, receiving complaints from about 25% of my subscribers that page load times are long, (sometimes very long) and that loading sometimes stops before continuing. A few of these say that pages won't load completely and one has said it has crashed his browser. Most others (75%) report absolutely no issues what-so-ever.
    The website can be found at: http://web.mac.com/rwolfert/NJNature_Notes_Website/FrontPage.html
    After questioning about 2 dozen readers, I have the feeling it has to do with the following (so far):
    1-browsers…IE is the slowest by far with Safari and Firefox best. Safari renders pages best.
    2-computer memory…I can't prove this yet but this seems a no-brainer. Anything less than 1 GB of memory is really not going to help with complex pages.
    3-processor speed…this too should be obvious…newer machines will handle complex pages better
    4-add-ons like drop shadows and reflections on images
    5-and possibly, too many images on a given page
    So, this leads to some questions about optimizing pages or an entire website.
    1-Does the website have TOO many drop shadows, and/or photos?
    2-Is there a way to optimize photos that have been resized so they are as small as they can be while not losing any screen resolution? I would imagine that when adding photos to a page that will play slideshows, that the images are automatically optimized for the page. But, images that are resized or masked on the page itself, are not. Is the answer here to process each of those kinds of images in iPhoto or Photoshop first, at the exact size? Would I have to set resolution in some way too?
    3-Do I really have to 'dumb down' the site's graphics (drop shadows, etc.) for people with older and slower computers, and the 'wrong' browser?
    Thanks for any help. I would really love to resolve this issue or, at least, give the complaining viewers an answer.
    Rich

    Something else I just thought of.
    If you have other computers available (windows, too), would you please try the website there to see if platform or older vs. new computers make a big difference, different amounts of memory and/or processor speed, as well.
    Note, I removed about 20 drop shadows and photo reflections from the Front Page of the website and I do seem to get about a 20% decrease in load time.
    Thank you very much.

  • IWeb 1.1 does NOT optimize site for faster loading

    I duplicated my iWeb site folder which at the time was 15Mb in size.
    I then updated iWeb to 1.1 and exported my site to a folder without making any changes to my site. I had heard somewhere that I would see a dialogbox asking if I want to update my site for the new improved loading times in iWeb 1.1. Didn't see any of that.
    Well I then looked at the newly exported folder and compared it with the old one. The old, as stated above, is 15Mb in size - the new "optimized" one is 16.3Mb
    How come? Is it once again only .Mac users that will see the full benifit of this update?
    Powerbook G4 1.5 Ghz, 15", 1,5Gb RAM, Radeon 9700 (128 Mb)   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I agree. I have images-as-graphics on all of my pages and in v1.1 they are still huge .png files converted from my original small .jpg files (eg .jpg original 90kb, iWeb converted .png 444kb). After downloading v1.1 I've only managed to get my site to upload once this evening to .Mac (and got the picture error message like everyone else) and now it won't publish at all. I've been experimenting with publishing to a folder and have turned off shadows, reflections, lines etc. The .jpg files are still converting to .png. The only ones that don't are the photo album thumbnails on the template photo page which stay as .jpgs.
    This is horrible. I'm building a little site with iWeb for a friend who is on dial up and it's embarrasing getting him to have to wait twenty minutes everytime he looks at an update.

  • Terminal command for fast loading of safari pages

    Hi,
    I am relatively new to the mac OS and I had seen a post on setting how soon safari displays a loading page. I guess that was the setting.
    Can someone pls help and let me know if there is anything such setting.
    Thanks
    Aditya

    Hi Aditya,
    Yes, you did the command correctly. I must have set my value in the past which is why it currently works for me. You are seeing an error as it hasn't been set yet.
    Quit Safari then try the second command to set a new value. Start up Safari to see if it feels any snappier to you. You'll need to quit Safari each time before trying to set a new value.
    Also, is such a setting available for the Camino browser?
    Yes, there is. Have a look at this page under the Speed up page rendering section: http://www.caminobrowser.org/support/hiddenprefs/
    Hope that helps.

  • How can I host my full-bleed images (such as browser fill) on a CDN (such as Amazon3) for fast load?

    Hey,
    I was wondering if anyone know how to use a Contenct Delivery Network (such as Amazon S3) to host large images on my Muse site so that they upload faster?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can add web hosted images to your site by clicking Object-> Insert HTML...
    and adding the <img src="" /> tag there:
    However, I do not know that this will increase your loading speed.

  • How to Cut, Label, Save sports clips (40Hours, 500GB, 1080p AVCHD Source) for creating season highlight video in Premiere Elements 13?

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions you can provide to help me.
    I have filmed all of my son's basketball games this season and we are heading into the playoffs soon. I would like to find an efficient way to cut, label, and save video clips to create a highlight movie for the team banquet.
    All video is AVCHD and saved on hard drive. A few games were recorded with a Sony camcorder 1920x1980i30(*.mt2s), the rest with my Canon DSLR1920x1080p30(*.mov). I will have about 35 or 40 hours of video by the end of the season. Probably around half a terabyte.
    I own licenses to the following video editors.
    Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11.
    Adobe Premiere Elements 13 that I just purchased bundled with Photoshop Elements 13.
    I struggled with burning AVCHD disks with the Sony software, so did the Adobe trial and everything worked great so I bought it.
    I went through one game and clipped the highlights, but can't figure out how to label them, or export them as individual highlight files.  I guess I would be OK doing this all in a single project if I knew that it would work, and if I could find a way to label the clips so that I can arrange them without having to preview the clip every time.
    I am open to using other tools if they don't cost too much, free would be awesome since I don't do this professionally.
    Thanks!

    GreatFun,
    Yes, while I couldn't spend much time today at work reviewing the link ATR provided, at a high level I like ATR's approach as well, and it definitely is advantageous for that use case and rendering only the final product. My use case is a bit different. My son's high school webcasts each match which I then pull off their Youtube channel (with their permission, of course) and use their camera angles and their play-by-play guys commentary (again, with permission) to augment my video (which are closer to the action and much better quality than theirs, I must say). The kids get a kick out of hearing the play-by-play guy yell their name when the score or make a great play. So that is why I produce my clips separately. To me it is cleaner and I can store them for later use outside PE or any other project.
    Anyway, regarding the actual shooting of the video. I've been doing this for awhile and there are two elements that are a must for any soccer shoot: a good solid tripod with fluid panning ability, and height. Getting above the action (like atop bleachers), for the most part, is an advantage most of the time. That is why professional sports are shot from above. While I do like to take a few minutes of every game to get on the sidelines and film at field level (this adds a bit of variety to the finished product, and you can't beat the ambient sounds you get when the players grunt and groan), you just can't capture the flow of the game from that angle.
    The purpose of your video will dictate your composition. Are you trying to always focus on one player (one particular forward, back, midfielder or keeper) and get their every move (for the purpose of say, college recruitment purposes), regardless of where the ball or action is? If so, you'll want to stay tight on them, but not too tight - know where the action is and use the rule of thirds here with your subject player always in the left or right most third. Let the action, in this case, the ball, enter from the opposite third your player is in to allow the viewer to see a glimpse of what led up to your subject being engaged with the action. If your subject is a keeper, that is the easiest position to focus on of all. When filming just a keeper, I like to set my tripod up along the touch line about 30 yards from the goal line (again, elevated if possible), compose the shot using thirds again so as to let the viewer see the passing action as the goal is attacked. Its great to get a clip of the keeper making a save, but it can be much more impressive and entertaining to a viewer to see how it all unfolds and the choices the goalie has to make to be in the right position to make the save.
    If your intent is to film the action where the ball is, regardless of the player or team that has the ball (like most professional sports coverage), it is much better to cast a wide composition. As you mention, it is difficult to find that sweet spot between being too far out and missing the intimacy, or being too close in and simply giving the viewer a headache as the shots zip around as you try and follow the ball. I've found the sweet spot for me is to shoot always keeping a quarter of the pitch in view. This allows for tight enough composition to keep the viewer engaged with the action, without having to jerk the shot around so much as to make them throw up. Soccer is quite fast paced at the high school level and there is quite a bit of "switching the field", where a wing will lob the ball completely across the width of the field to the opposite wing. If you are in too tight, you'll have to pan very quickly to the receiving side, and if done a lot, will not make for very entertaining viewing. There are other examples of why you shouldn't be too tight, but you get the idea.
    I've probably written too long a post as it is for this forum, but I hope I've given you some things to consider on your next shoot.
    Good health to you!

  • Is there a way to "link" 2 video clips?

    Hi,
    I have a single 3 minute split screen video scene (in the timeline) that is made of 2 video clips. Can I link this pair of video clips?
    It would make resizing easier if I only had to scale a single wire frame, instead of having to try to resize both clips to match each other for nesting?
    Thanks,
    humbucker

    Hi Michel,
    My S1 has several clips it it. I am dividing my finished video into 4 equal sections on the screen, for the entire video, and there are lots of tracks in the timeline now.
    If I move S1 into S2 with just the 2 tracks I want active, it transfers perfectly as a single track.
    Here is the problem. When I return to S1 and make active other tracks, the other tracks also become active in S2, overwriting the 2 tracks I want linked. Or, if I deactivate the tracks in S1, the timeline is S2 still shows the track in the timeline but blacks the screen out.
    I want to be able to make 2 video clips into a single track for easier editing in S1, is that possible?
    Thanks for your help,

  • Linking Video Clips

    Hello,
    I am wondering if there is a way to link a secondary video clip to my primary video clip so that I can move one and keep the other positioned correctly.
    I know you can do this with things like audio, but when I try to link my two video clips together, the command "Link" under the "Modify" menu is grayed out.
    Thanks,
    Matt

    You can make a new sequence and copy and paste the clips into the new sequence. Use the new sequence like a clip, nested into the master sequence. That's the only way to link video elements.

  • Audio only on a video clip

    Hello gang,
    Hope someone can answer this question.  I took a series of video clips over a week.  After I began putting them together, I somehow "lost" video.
    They show up as a video clip in the menu screen, but when I go to play them it is only the audio portion that shows up.
    Then after I let it play the clip "loses" the video pic associated with the clip and shows the "audio" note.  so I guess its now an
    audio clip and I lost my video?  Any ideas from the smart crowd????  I am definately not in that group.  very novice!\
    Thanks,
    coach

    I was able to bring up the video clips, edit them (using PE7) and save them as a project.  A couple days later, I went to view them and they showed up as audio only.
    Coach,
    These two lines cause me to wonder a bit. I wonder if you are looking at, and trying to play the proper files. Let me give a bit of background, just so we're both on the same page. First a few questions: When you transfered the files from the SD card, what format did they appear as? Where did you copy them to? Would you download and install G-Spot. Run one of those files, the ones that you copied over from the SD card, and see what that program shows, expecially the upper right of the screen, where the CODEC used is shown. There will be both the "name" of the CODEC and the full specifications of it. That info might contain an answer for us. Next, look to the lower left of the G-Spot screen. You'll see two columns of little squares, with the number 1 in them. One is for Video, and one for Audio. Hit the #1 for Video, and you *should* get a box below, with #2 in it. Hit it, and you *should* get a box with a #3 in it. Again, hit #3, and you'll get a tiny viewer at the upper-left of the screen. Your Video *should* play. You may also need to render the Audio too.
    Now, for the info: In PE, when you Save, you are only saving a Project file, with the .PREL extension. It is only a database, with no media in it, only links to media. There are also some Audio Conforming files, that appear in the PE Project folder structure, that will have the same filename, as your media files, but will have the .WAV extension. These are only Audio files. There will be some much smaller files there, with .PEK extensions. These are the Waveform Display.
    PE is a non-destructive editor, in that it does not alter the original media files. They *should* be intact, as you copied them from the SD card. It would be easy to accidently play, say the conformed Audio files (remember, same filename, but with the .WAV extension*). You *should* be able to play your original (actually the copies that you made from the SD card) with no problem. If they play only Audio, and you have opened the right files, then you likely do not have the proper CODEC on your machine. That's what paragraph two is all about. and we'll have that answer.
    Let us know what G-Spot says, and good luck,
    Hunt
    * If you have your OS's Folder Options to not show file extensions, please change that setting. You definitely want to see the file extensions, especially as many of your files will have the same filename, with NLE work.

  • How do you import/where do you put video clips?

    With my Windows Vista PC, video clips taken by my iPhone or digital camera were imported by Windows Photo Gallery and stored in the same directories as the photos. These videos could then be synced via iTunes in the Photo tab, when you selected a photo directory that contained video files and clicked on the "Include videos" box.
    Now on my new iMac, I see the same "include videos" box under the Photo tab for any given iOS device in iTunes. But, iPhoto did not import even my iPhone-created videoes when I migrated my photo library.
    So my question (i'm a mac newbie in case it was not clear): How do I need to setup the video import process so that camera and iPhone videos are stored in the places they need to be, so that they can be synced in iTunes during photo sync? Does iPhoto need to be configured in some way to import the video, or am I supposed to use iMovie to import video clips into a library which can be used by iTunes for syncing during the photo sync process? Or is there some other program I have to configure? When I connect cameras with video clips, my iMac is not bringing up any program by default to import the video - is there some sort of configuration option I am supposed to select?
    Second question: I have a lot of video clips in avi format created by older digital camers. What format do I need to convert them to in order to get them into a format which can be imported into a library and synced to my iOS devices? Previously on my PC, I converted the AVI files to MP4 format, and it worked just fine. However, again iPhoto did not recognize these files (maybe if I get question #1 answered this will no longer be an issue).
    Thanks,
    JB

    I guess the reason I like the iPhoto approach is that it arranges my photos chronologically/as events, which makes it easier for me to view. I also like that I can sync my videos by event. This workflow works for me because I have a tendency to make a lot of video and only get around to editing later, but often still like to look at the raw video from time to time. Meanwhile, I note that viewing clips in iMovie is far less convenient - clearly this is for editing only rather than viewing. So if I understood it correctly, to do it this way, I should convert video clips in iMovie to, I guess, the *.mov format and move those into iPhoto, yes?
    I just took a video with my iPhone and confirmed that iPhoto did import it. However, I still can't figure out why iPhoto did not see the existing iPhone mov files in my PC photo library from the USB hard drive when it imported all other photos from the same. I then dragged and dropped some of those mov files manually into iPhoto, and this worked... but not well. Those videos got arranged as a separate event, and then I had to go and put them back into the correct event.
    I have hundreds of photo subdirectories from the PC library, and I don't remember which ones have iPhone video files. Is there a way to search the entire photo directory for *.mov files and drag them from there into iPhoto? If I could then see the file name or time/date stamp of the individual mov files, I could then sort the mov files manually into the correct events.
    What if I were to make iPhoto reimport from this photo directory, with the hopes that it would automatically pick up the mov files? Would I get duplicates of existing imports by this method?
    Finally - am I correct in assuming that I only have to convert my existing avi video clips to mov format in order for iPhoto to be able to handle them?

  • Cannot align/trim video clips

    I've been trying for the better part of a day to figure out how to precisely align and trim two video clips, but have had no luck. I grew up using Windows Movie Maker quite a bit to edit videos (covers of songs, so they all involve starting with a title slide, fading into a video, and syncing the whole video with a prerecorded audio track),  and what I thought would be universal in video editing programs doesn't seem to work the way I thought.
    The main problem I am having is the inability to arrange and edit multiple video clips in a linear fashion. For example, if I have clip A, a few seconds of video with the title of the movie, and clip B, the actual video, I cannot seem to precisely edit the two together. In the background is an audio track, so the video has to be synced with the audio. Problem is, I can't just trim either clip A or clip B by a few frames to get it to sync. If I get the clip of the performance in sync with the audio, inserting a title slide pushes the rest of the video to the side, rather than just overtaking the performance video.
    I should also mention that I have another video in the picture-in-picture (rhythm guitar track, lead guitar track), so the two need to be perfectly in sync.
    I tried to get around this by cutting the clips to the same length. Each of my two clips that I try to align are 00:03:51:06. I thought that by doing this, I could drag the main video to the timeline, and then insert the picture-in-picture video on top of it so that they would be in sync. iMovie doesn't seem to want to align the two clips even though they are the same length, and not being able to precisely edit them is making it so that I can't align them properly.
    I know this is a basic movie editing program and I may be expecting too much of iMovie, but is there something I'm missing here that's preventing me from making clean edits?

    OK I see the problem,
    I've made some videoclips in the past (barbershop quartet), and have to admit that iMovie is limited.
    As I'm from Holland, it's hard to me to give you an exact advise of what is and isn't possible in English (as all my menu's are in Dutch and not English), as it's also depends on what kind of footage you have and what you're trying to achieve. The only thing I can help you with is point out some directions you could dig into:
    1. You may study the function of beatmarkers and all the possibilities to synchronize music to clips/beatmarkers.
    2. As I mentiond earlier you can possible combine that with thwe functionalitty of the precisoon editor, you can make precis edits as wel for vidoe and audio (put apperntly you already studied that.
    3. For the picture in picture there is no solution (as far as I know). You might experiment with "cutaway" and/or "next to each other" when it comes to inserting clips.
    4. For the production of videopodcasts I used Garageband for fine tuning voice-overs and background music. In Garageband it is possible to make very precise edits on imported video tracks. I asume Logic has similar functionallity. This means you perhaps have to move back and forward video/audio from iMovie to Garageband (or Logic) and visa versa.
    If that is all to much of a hassle (which I can imagine) perhaps Final Cut Pro X is you're only option.
    Succes, sorry I cann't help you further.
    Ben

Maybe you are looking for
