What compression to use when capturing?

Hi, I have DigiVOX A/D. I want to capture some TV programs. But I'm littel confused which compression (codec) to use and how to configure it.
If I select DVD PAL 4000 kb/s in settings, 10 secconds of video is an 5.4 MB mpeg file.
If I select AVI 2000 kb/s in settings, 10 secconds of video is an 159 MB avi file.
And the same size (about 158 MB avi file) is when I select MPEG4 2000 kb/s.
This is somehow strange. Should'n 2000 kb/s produce smaller file than 4000 kb/s?
What settings do you suggest? What codec, what resolution, bitrate and so on? I want it only for later watching so it doesn't have to be superb quality.
And another question is about audio coding. There are only PCM (with different settings) in audio settings. No MP3 or so. Is that OK?

juso, you need to install the full codec pack, you can get from http://www.free-codecs.com/
K-Lite is a good one. Most are decoder (playback) but it also include encoding (record, encode) packs.
Once you have the codec installed on your system, you can choose more than AVI, MP3 etc.
Depends on your CPU, if you have a powerful one, I'd use DivX or XVID or MPEG4 encoding, and mux with MP3.

What compression to use when Exporting HD video from final cut pro PAL setting

Hi there
I'm trying to export my HD video from Final cut Pro so that I can edit it in DVD studio Pro. I initially exported it on H.264 setting however it then gives me the message 'NTSC assets cannot be imported into PAL projects' It was edited with PAL setting so I think it must be the conversion but i'm not sure which option to use.....been really struggling to get the 1 hour footage under 4.5gb without losing too much quality...
Any advice greatly appreciated!
thanks

Just to add two suggestions.
1) Consider putting your four movies on two disks.
2) Bring your movies into Compressor and duplicate the stock DVD setting. In the Encoding pane of the Inspector, select a CBR and dial it back to around 6.2 to 6.5 Mbs. In Preview mark a small section and submit; you'll get 2 elementary streams, with m2v and AC3 extensions. Bring that into DVDSP and evaluate results. Adjust as necessary. (This is to avoid waiting out very long encodes and then having to start again from scratch if you get disappointing results.)

How do I determine what URL to use when launching to display a RH10 .htm page?

Hello,
We are implementing RoboHelp 10 for our online documentation and are sourcing it from Framemaker 11. I am trying to determine exactly what URL information the developers need to build for the launch to the specific IBM System i screen. Is anyone launching RoboHelp from a backend ERP system? If so, how did you determine what level to use when building the URL for that page? Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

It depends on whether you just want to open the help at the default topic or open context sensitive topics.
Both methods are described in Calling Help on my site and there is more good information at http://www.wvanweelden.eu

What do I use when Migration Assistant reads "you might not be able to transfer using firewire on this computer"?

When using Migration Assistant to transfer from one Mac to another Mac, as soon as I get to the point where it says to connect the firewire to each computer, it says "You might not be able to transfer using Firewire on this computer". What do I use then?

10.4.x is Tiger; 10.5.x is Leopard.
I've not used the Tiger version of Migration Assistant (just Leopard and later), and there's not much in the way of Apple tech articles for it anymore.
Since the message says "might not," I don't see any reason not to give it a try. At worst, it will fail and perhaps leave a partially-transferred user account on the G5. If that happens, we can deal with it.
I'd make sure the connections are snug and secure, and try it.
Good luck, and keep us posted.
I don't have any backups of the G4 and I don't have an external drive and I don't know anyone who has one.
If your data is important to you, invest in one . . . soon, and start making regular backups. They're not very expensive (some as cheap as $50, good ones perhaps $100). Disk drives fail, especially after a few years, other things go wrong, and even the most careful users make mistakes now and then.

What trigger to use when wanting to form commit information

Want to commit information from form to database.
Only appears I can use when button push
The on validate record does not facilitate form commit
In previous forms versions used a post update trigger
however this one is not valid/recommended anymore.
THX IN ADVANCE

Thank you Sanjay for your response. I am currently using When Validate Trigger. It works for all the scenarios except when order line is cancelled.
When line cancelled I should rewrite the order quantity to 0 and save then only DFF's are updating to 0's.
Thanks,

What accessory to use when connecting to Harman Kardon AVR

Hi,
we use a Harman Kardon AVR 145 for our audio at home. Please can anyone advise me what accessory to use for connecting the iPad? We have the bridge for our iPod, but that is no good of course. Please advise on a cable to use. Thanx!

Sorry, but you'll have to either wait for someone owning that equipment to show up or for someone to take the time and trouble to look it up and see what sort of connection options are provided on it. Or, if you want to perhaps move the process on a bit more quickly, and seeing as how you have it right there, you could always provide that info.

What settings to use when exporting HD into QuickTime Movie

This help call goes out to any Mac user with Final Cut. I need help!!!
I have a Mac G5 and use Final Cut Pro V. 5.1.4. I Just bought a Canon XH A1 and filmed a few test shoots. Then downloaded to FC Pro. I have been trying to export using QuickTime Conversion. Every setting I have tried comes out more or less square. HELP!!!!
My Settings:
In Easy Setup - HDV - 1080i60 FireWire Basic
Under Sequence the setting is:
Frame Size - HD (1440X1080) (16:9)
Pixel Aspect Ratio - HD 1440X1080
No check mark in Anamorphic 16:9
Field Dominance- Lower
Editing Timebase - 29.97
QuickTime Video Settings:
Compression - Motion JPEG B
Under Export - using QuickTime Conversion - QuickTime Movie - Options - Video Settings:
I tied:
HDV 1080i60 and 50
Motion JPEG A and B
DVCPRO HD 1080i60
All settings come out squarish!!!

Hi Patrick,
Thanks for the info. But I can not get any setting to come out looking widescreen. All settings come out square looking. I have tried every setting I can think of but all the QuickTime exported movies come looking like (i.e.: 800X854) more box than widescreen. I think it must be some setting I do not know about or some combination or possibly the capture setting (easy setup).
Thanks for your help.

What adaptor to use when travelling international

what adartor can I use for international if I need to charge my iphone 4S & ipad air

The iPad charger is international; it's rated 100V to 240V.
It's better to use a 10W/12W charger to charge iPhone and iPad. A 5W charger will get very hot when charging iPad.

What compression to use for HDV video? Is Flash supported?

Hello folks,
I want to produce a HDV videopodcast. My webserver only has 500MB of space available, so I will need to compress this video files. But what videofiles are allowed in iTunes? The most ideal would be to convert my .mov files into Flash .flv files. But is Flash supperted in iTunes? Or what other options I have to end up with a maximum of 40 MB of video? (the original file is about 1GB)
Thank you so much for any input or advise.
Cheers

iTunes and QuickTime do not use Flash. If you want to create something in HD, your file size will likely be much larger. More on recommended podcast video formats for iTunes, Apple TV, and iPods:

What will you use when forms is gone?

Looks like forms is coming to end in a few years.
If you company is like mine and uses forms a lot (our ERP is all forms), you should be already think alternatives to it.
The big problem is that rewrite all the code is very, very expensive.
So I ask. Have you think about it?
Did you know what you going to do?
I was thinking about ADF and APEX. Wich one will be, for say, the "Forms Replacement"?
Does Oracle has a plan for customers like us?
In short, what is your opinion on this?

As Thomas mentioned, everything must come to an end eventually. However for Oracle Forms, my expectation is that it will remain supported for many more years. And I plan to be on the top of the list of cheerleaders to encourage Oracle to keep it going and improving it. I encourage anyone wanting to see this or any product continue on, to make your feedback known. It is often customer feedback that helps a company determine what direction they will go next with a particular product.
Making statements like "it's going away" or "it is dead" does nothing more than create unnecessary panic. This is especially true when you are just speculating. Or are you? What would make you say
"Looks like forms is coming to end in a few years"How do you know this? Did someone in Oracle tell you this - who? It cannot be denied that the product has not seen much in the way of significant gui enhancements over the passed few years, but that means nothing relative to its life. With each new release, new features are included and many bugs fixes compared to previous versions are included. Generally, making significant changes to this very mature and mostly stable product are avoided in order to ensure its stability. Decisions to include new features or enhancements are carefully reviewed. If a requested new feature is something that is overwhelmingly desired by the customer community and it will not put the stability of the product at risk, it will be considered. However, the most likely new features to be included would be those which permit Forms to better integrate with other Oracle products or technolgies. For example Oracle recently added OAM support.
So, again... I encourage anyone who may be developing new Forms applications, maintaining existing ones, or completing a long running project with Forms to make yourself known. Help Oracle to understand why you use and want Oracle Forms rather than some other product or technology. Is it cost, ease of use, ability to create applications quickly, your comfort zone, or something else. Talk to your account managers and sales reps and tell them your likes, dislikes, and wish lists.
The views expressed in this posting are my own and do not necessarily reflect the views of Oracle.

What cables to use when connecting Airport Extreme and Windows XP?

I have a DSL modem and Airport Extreme. Right now I am getting Internet with the cable plugged into "Ethernet" and is connected to my computer. If I want to connect my Airport Extreme to my computer, where do I plug in everything?
Thank you for your help - I am a complete wireless newbie!

Jgreene19
You don't seem to be making much sense, please can you clarify your network and your computer.
You have a DSL modem with an Ethernet port?
Do you have an Airport Extreme Base Station?
What computer do you want to connect by Airport, your iMac listed in your profile (or as this is an Airport for Windows forum) a Windows PC?
Does this Windows PC have a wireless card or not?

What PDF settings are used when creating DPS articles?

When you create a PDF file using Acrobat Distiller or InDesign you can modify settings such as font subsets, image down-sampling and compression which will have an impact on the final file size. Does anyone know what settings are used when articles are rendered in PDF format in DPS and can the settings be modified? Specifically, what type of compression is applied to images? If I were to place two images on a page, a png and a jpg with medium quality, would they be embedded in the PDF as is or re-compressed in another format and/or level of quality?

Thanks for your help.
So images placed in an InDesign retain their original file format and are unzipped when the article is loaded in the app.
I'm assuming that if compression is applied to the original image files it can have an impact on performance. If you were to use jpeg files in a document they would need to be unzipped and decompressed. I've read other forum posts that suggest the iOS jpeg decompression engine is too slow to present a fluid user experience in a DPS app. The combined processing time of unzipping and decompressing jpegs files may steer me towards the png format.

How to know what compression format is used for images in pdf file? (jpeg2000 issue with iPad)

I have a pdf file whose images are compressed in jpeg2000 format which the iPad doesn't support. I used Acrobat to save the pdf file using the zip compression for the images and another time using the jpg compression. I set this in the PDF Optimizer screen. The images in the pdf do not show up in the iPad.
I am not sure if I am doing something wrong. How do I know what compression was used for the images in a pdf file?

My work around for now is "Make Compatible with…’ from Acrobat 4.0 " which does not support JPEG2000 compression.
