VOB and Timecode Problem
I'm new to video editing & Premiere Elements 7 so excuse my ignorance.
I have a Philips 3575 DVD Recorder with a hard drive. When I burn a DVD, with say three 30 minute shows, the DVD creates two VOB files. The first VOB file has 0:45:49 of video and the second VOB has the remaining video.
When I use VLC to play these two files, there are 90 minutes of video. However when I look at the timecode display, after 30 minutes, the timecode goes back to 0:00 and ends (with the first VOB) at 15:49. The second VOB file starts at timecode 15:50, continues to 30:00 and restarts at 0:00 and finishes at 30:00
When I load these two files into Premiere Elements, it shows a duration of 0:29:26:24 and 0:15:21:23 respectively. I lose the 15+ minutes of the first VOB and 30 minutes of the second VOB.
Is there a way to import VOB and ignoring the timecode in the files? Either that or have it read the appropriate timecode information that should be contained as part of the original DVD for the 3 programs?
I'm struggling a bit here, trying to get use to Premiere and trying to solve this problem so any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks...
Robert... Saving as MPEG is very fast and this extra step of conversion would be tolerable. I am noticing, however, that the file size is smaller. Is there any image or audio reprocessing involved in creating the MPEG?
Steve... Thanks for the suggestion for MPEG StreamClip and the link to your other post. I hope I don't forget that I can't install the real quicktime. :-)
Paul... Thanks for the suggestion for VideoRedo. Hopefully I can just deal with the conversion to MPEG and keep Premiere. Although it's probably more than I need, it does have some cool features that should make the workflow very efficient.

Reduced quality of .vob and avi files
Hi Guys
I need some help please.
I am working on a trail version of adobe elements 10 on a new macbook pro lion.
No problem installing application.
When I import video either in vob from dvd or avi format, the quality of the video is reduced tremendously, there are no white black lines, no jumping, just low quality.
On the bottom right hand side, the application tells me that it is doing something called conforming.
When I play the same video in vlc on the mac, or on my pc, the video runs fine with no problems and the picture is crystal clear.
I tried the things suggested in support:
1. Rendering
2. Checked the fps are the same as the original video ie 25 fps
3. Tried using application to convert vob file to mp4 of all different levels of quality using external program (wondershare video converter ultimate for mac)
Elements looks like a great program, the closest to the magix I used to run on my pc, but the problem at the moment is that the quality is reduced.
Is there a codec problem?
The vob and avi files are not recognized by quicktime.
Please let me know asap
Thanks
SimonMuch has to do with which project settings you've selected in Premiere Elements when you set up your project. (For DVD video, you should be using the Hard Disk Camcorder/standard definition settings for your project.) You also should not mix DVD and AVI footage in a project. They interlace very differently and this can cause problems in your output.
Much also depends on where your AVIs are coming from. Unless your AVIs are from a miniDV camcorder, captured over a FireWire connection, you are likely working with a codec that is not fully compatible with the program. Where did these AVIs come from?
Conforming is an important part of the process of the program rendering non-workflow formats (such as DVD VOB files) into editable workflow formats. Allow the program the fully conform your DVD video and use the proper project presets and you should get results that are virtually identical to the original footage.
Parts 1 and 2 of my free 8 part Basic Training tutorials at Premiere Elements support site Muvipix.com will help you understand how and why project set-up and proper footage formats are so important.

Timecode problems with DV-NTSC
This is too weird! I've been editing for years in FCP 5.1.4 and now all of a sudden, I'm having timecode problems when capturing DV. I've tried my dual G5 running OS 10.4.11 and my Mac Book Pro Intel dual running 10.5.6. I tried both of my cams (Sony & Canon), different tapes and firewire cables, no go. I went onto Apple's support and per their instructions removed the Library/Receipts/QT version resources, downloaded QT again, no luck. I just got through capturing and editing a HD DV with no problems, but regular DV won't work now. Any ideas?
Thanks,
HenrikExactly which version of QT?

I am tring to have my seekbar and timecode start from zero at
the begining of each cuepoint that i have. Does anyone know of a
way to do this.
thanks in advanceThat might be part of the problem. But, that aside, we can actually capture the material reliably if, under the capture settings we tell FCP to warn about any timecode breaks AFTER capturing instead of during or making a new clip.
That might be the WHOLE problem. The fact that you can capture if you turn the warning off only means FCP is not going to tell you you've had breaks until capture is done. And as Loyed has said, TC is very important if you ever need to recapture the footage.
Although some get away with capturing via USB, it is not recommended and this is one of the problems you would expect to see as a result.

Question
I am not able to launch FF everytime i try to open it, it says FF has to submit a crash report,and restore yr tabs. I even tried doing that and the report was submitted too, but still FF did not start, and the problem still persists, please help me solve this issue
'''(in English)'''Hi Danny,
Per my understanding that you can't get the expect result by using the expression "=Count(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4) " to count the the TICKET_STATUS which value is 4, the result will returns the count of all the TICKET_STATUS values(206)
but not 180, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can reproduce the issue, the issue caused by you are using the count() function in the incorrect way, please modify the expression as below and have a test:
=COUNT(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS.Value=4 ,1,Nothing))
or
=SUM(IIF(Fields!TICKET_STATUS=4,1,0))
If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

BOSD, Battery issues and Heating problem after iOS 8 upgrade
i have upgraded my iPad mini to iOS 8. Ever since I upgraded to iOS 8 am facing blue screen issues and heating problem as well. This is really frustrating even the patch iOS 8.0.2 dint solve the problem. Are you guys listening our complaints. When will you fixing it.
The same thing happened to me on my 2012 Subaru Outback. I'm not sure this will help you since you have a Honda, but I'm posting this just in case.
I paired the audio on my car with my iPhone 6. However, when I turned the car off and back on again, the iPhone would not pair automatically. I had to manually connect the iPhone with the car. Turns out there are two separate bluetooth pairings on my car: one for phone which allows up to 5 devices and one for audio which allows only one device. So I did the second bluetooth pairing for the phone (had already done the audio), and that fixed it. YMMV -

I am making code to try to make a game and my problem is that my code
will not let it change the hit everytime so im getting the first guy to hit 1 then next hits 8 and so on and always repeats.
Another problem is that I would like it to attack with out me telling it how much times to attack. I am using Object oriented programming.
Here is the code for my objects:
import java.lang.*;

import java.util.Random;
import static java.lang.Math.*;

double bP = 1; // bonus for prayer (is 1 times prayer bonus)
double aB = 0; // equipment stats
double eS = (sL * bP) + 3; // effective strength
double bD = floor(1.3 + (eS/10) + (aB/80) + ((eS*aB)/640)); // my base damage
//Attack formula
double aL = 50; // my Attack Level
double eD = 1; // enemy's Defence
double eA = aL / eD; // effective Attack
double eB = 0; // equipment bonus'
double bA = ((eA/10) * (eB/10)); // base attack

rockCrab() {
void attack() {

double done = rint(fH - fA);
fA = random() * bA;
fH = random() * bD;
done = rint(fH - fA);
System.out.println("Rockcrab hit" +done);

fA = random() * bA;
fH = random() * bD;
done = rint(fH - fA);
System.out.println("You hit" +done);
}Here is the main code that writes what the objects do:
class fight {
public static void main(String[] args) {
self instance1 = new self();
rockCrab instance2 = new rockCrab();
instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
instance2.health = instance2.health - instance1.done;
System.out.println("You hit: " +instance1.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance2.health);
instance1.health = instance1.health - instance2.done;
System.out.println("RockCrab hit: " +instance2.done);
System.out.println("rockCrabs health: " + instance1.health);
}when the code is run it says something like this:
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 9
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 38
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 8
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 31
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 7
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 24
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 6
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 17
my point is whatever some one hits it always repeats that
my expected output would have to be something like
you hit 1
RockCrabs health is 9
RockCrab hit 9
your health is 37
you hit 3
RockCrabs health is 6
RockCrab hit 4
your health is 33
you hit 2
RockCrabs health is 4
RockCrab hit 7
your health is 26
you hit 3
RockCrabs health is 1
RockCrab hit 6
your health is 20

A rather odd and annoying problem has recently been occuring on my MBP. A couple days ago my remote (after working without fail for over a year now) suddenly stopped working. Yesterday night and this morning it started working again but after a while it stopped again. I've read dozens of support articles which haven't really helped because there seems to be another problem.
Most articles have stated that there is an option to disable the IR receiver in the "security" window under system preferences. When the IR and remote are not working this option disappears but when they are working the option is present. I have also tried replacing the battery without any result.
I am now thinking that it might have something to do with heat buildup because it is mainly occuring after the laptop has been on for about a half hour, so I am going to try to borrow someone's fan.
If anyone has any suggestions to solve this I would appreciate it if you could help. Thanks!

LG Ally text message and gps problems
hello. ive been with verizon for about 10 years maybe. ive been overall happy with the service and customer service. but the prices should be alot lower.lol. i started out with the motorolas then switched to the lg phones. only problem with the motorola was the speakers. not loud enough. could never hear the phone ring. the lgs usually suffer from the same problem.
i had a few phone problems but nothing like this lg ally. im on my second one and about to be my 3rd one in about 3 months. 1st phone i had every problem under the sun. this phone i am suffering from text message problems and gps problems. i suffer from what everyone else has problems with. the messages wont send. they will eventually lock up. it will show the envelope with the red explanation point ( i think thats the graphic). then usually everytime when i sent a text the texts will close. it will send then bounce back and show up as a draft and i have to resend it and wait for it to go thru. finally the last problem with the texts. when i send a text a phone number from my contacts shows up and freezes on the screen. its in white text with a black background. its the same number every time. it stays on the screen until i restart or pull my battery out.
gps. when i open up google gps that comes with the phone i make sure the gps is on... when the directions are found and the map pops up 9 out of 10 times it just keeps saying searching for gps. the turn by turn never is found. the 1 time it does it takes a good 10 minutes to be found. atleast on my first one ally the gps did work 8 out of 10 times. it just took a good 5-10 minutes for gps to be found and show turn by turn.
anyone else have these problems? where you able to fix them or did you need to get a new phone? the 2.1 update was supposed to fix problems. i think they just made it worse. the ally is supposed to have 2.2 froyo. where is it. is it ever going to get it. i got this phone because i like the lgs and the keyboard. also the sales representative on the phone was giving the lg ally rave reviews. why couldnt he say dont buy this go with a motorola droid. this phone is the biggest junk ever madeI do apologize you are having trouble with your device I looked in our information system on the LG Ally in reguards to issues you are having it states if you have the Free Droid Security anti virus protection application down loaded it will cause the phone to lock up or freeze. Check and make sure you do not have the application on your device. Check you GPS settings and make sure correct. Go to Settings; Location & Security; make sure GPS is on wireless network. If this does not fix issue you can try doing a Master Reset on your device. Make sure your contacts are saved in your G-mail account or through Back Up Assistance.
Master Reset/Soft Reset:
Factory Reset option 1
From the main screen, touch menu tab
Touch Settings
Touch Privacy
Touch Factory Data reset
Touch Reset Phone
Warning: This will erase all data from your phone, including:
Your Google account
System and application data and settings
Downloaded Applications
It will not erase: Current System software and bundled applications; SD Card files, such as music or Photos
Factory Reset option 2 - Warning this will reset device back to original factory settings.
Turn off the phone
Press and hold "home" + "end" + "volume up or down" keys together for a few seconds when the device is power off
Once device displays boot information, release keys.
Soft Reset
Press the Power key.
Touch Power off.
Touch OK.
Press the Power key to power on the device.
or
Remove battery cover, remove battery and reinstall.Also there is a new update for LG Ally it will be the Froyo 2.2 but there is not release date available at this time it will post on your device when available. Hope this Helps. Leslie -

Purchased a new Apple TV and the remote double clicks each time I press the button. It worked fine during set up and for the first two days. I have since moved it and this problem started. Restarted,reset,unplugged,changed remotes, no change. Latest software update. This is really annoying. iPhone remote app works just fine. Any suggestions?
That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it... -
