What Encoder Settings Does "Share with Facebook" Use?

With iMovie '11 you can Share/Facebook, which will upload the current project to a Facebook personal page. The problem is, I need to upload the movie to a group page that I administer. Yes, this has been asked before, and the answer was "Export to a local drive/desktop and upload to your Facebook group." Got it.
BUT... USING WHAT ENCODER SETTINGS? When you upload directly to Facebook, it's a "black box"--all you can choose is resolution. The video is beautiful when it's finished uploading. But, I HAVE NO IDEA what those encoder settings are and I've tried about every other combination of MP4/H.264 and the video looks typically like dog excrement--never as good as when I upload with the Facebook option.
What encoder settings does the Facebook option use???
- George -

If you want to replicate the black box, use SHARE/EXPORT MOVIE...
You can also use SHARE/MEDIA BROWSER. YOu will find the resulting movie buried in the project package.
If you want to roll your own...
SHARE/EXPORT TO QUICKTIME
QuickTime Movie
h.264 as video codec.
AAC or uncompressed as audio codec.
Set keyframes to automatic (or 24).
Set bitrate to 16,000 kbps, but you can back off from there. You may go as low as 8,000 but you would have to experiment.
It is difficult to get better quality than the default settings, but some people are able to get similar quality at a reduced file size. With YouTube and FaceBook, you should not care about file size. I would err on the side of quality, because FaceBook and YouTube may recompress in their proprietary format, and you want to give them as much to work with as possible.
If you want more detail, here is an article from YouTube on how to optimize settings. The same should work fine for FaceBook.

What am I doing wrong with this filter (counter/frequency issue), probably another newb question.

I extracted the part of my VI that applies here. I have a 6602 DAQ board reading a counter for frequency, using a Cherry Corp proximity sensor. Getting a lot of noise and errant ridiculously high readings. Speed of shaft which it's measuring is currently 2400rpm with one pulse per revolution so 40hz.
Trying to use the express filter VI to clean up the signal and ignore anything over, say, 45hz and under 35hz. No matter what setting I choose I continually get the 20020 error, Analysis: The cut-off frequency, fc, must meet: 0 <= fc <= fs/2. I know this relates to sample period somehow, but for the life of me I can't understand what I'm doing wrong.
I used this VI without filtering on bench tests with a hand-drill and got perfect output every time. Now it's on the machine and being erratic. Any help here will ease my stress level significantly, thanks.
VI attached
Still confused after 8 years.

Hello Ralph,
I'm not sure about mounting your sensor to your rig, but I can provide a couple ideas about the filtering. Depending on the type of noise, the digital filters on the PCI-6602 could help eliminate the behavior you are seeing. If the noise manifests as a "glitches" or a bouncing signal, you could use another counter with a minimum period to help eliminate the noise. This concept is discussed in greater detail in this KnowledgeBase. I noticed that you are using NI-DAQmx; the practical application of the digital filters on the PCI-6602 in NI-DAQmx is discussed in this KnowledgeBase. A more detailed description of the behavior of these filters is provided in the NI-DAQmx Help (Start>>All Programs>>National Instruments>>NI-DAQ) in the book entitled "Digital Filtering Considerations for TIO-Based Devices".
I also wanted to comment on your original post and explain why you were receiving error -20020. For convenience, I have copied the text of the error code below.
Error -20020 occurred at an unidentified location
Possible reason(s):
Analysis: The cut-off frequency, fc, must meet: 0 <= fc <= fs/2.
I think you may have misunderstood exactly what the Filter express VI does. The Filter express VI takes a series of values in a waveform and performs filtering on those signals. So, it will look at a waveform made up of X and Y values and apply the defined filter to this waveform. Specifically in your application, the cut-off frequency (fc) is the Upper Cut-Off level that you specified in the Filter express VI; any frequency components of the waveform outside of the range you have defined will be filtered. The fs is the sample rate based on the data that you wire to the Signal input of the Filter express VI. In your VI, this data is coming from the DAQ Assistant. So, fs will be the sample rate of the DAQ Assistant and is associated with the rate at which points are acquired. The sample rate does NOT relate to the bandwidth of the signal, except that the Nyquist theorem tells us that the sample rate must be at least twice the signal bandwidth in order to determine periodicity of the signal. So, in this case, the sample rate of the DAQ Assistant would need to be at least double the high cut-off frequency.
However, you are performing a frequency measurement using a counter. I think this is where the confusion comes in. For the frequency measurement using a counter, the DAQ Assistant returns a decimal value which represents the rate of the pulse train being measured by the counter. It does not return the actual waveform that is being read by the counter. It is this waveform that would be band-pass filtered to eliminate frequency content outside of the filter's bandwidth. Instead of the Filter express VI, I would recommend that you simply discard values that are outside the range you specify. I have modified the code you posted earlier to perform this operation. The image below shows the changes that I made; rather than using the Filter express VI, I simply compare the frequency to the "Low Threshold" and "High Threshold". I use a Case structure to display the value on if it is within the limits. Otherwise, I display a "NaN" value. I have also attached the modified VI to this post.

Choose a picture to share with Facebook widget

It is possible to choose a personal picture to share with Facebook when i use the dedicated widget on my published site ?
I've only 3 or 4 pictures that i can choose and they are wrong... Somebody can help me to find a solution ? Thanks

Hi,
Facebook has a set of open-graph meta tags that it looks at to decide which image to show.
<meta property="og:image" content="http://ia.media-imdb.com/rock.jpg"/>
<meta property="og:image:secure_url" content="https://secure.example.com/ogp.jpg" />
and should be present inside the <head></head> tag of your page.
If these tags are missing, it will use their older method of specifying an image: <link rel="image_src" href="/image.jpg"/>. If neither are present, Facebook will look at the content of your page and choose images from your page that meet its share image criteria: Image must be at least 50px by 50px, have a maximum aspect ratio of 3:1, and in PNG, JPEG or GIF format.
Please let me know if you have any other query.

Can I create a calendar on my mac to share with students using ipads?

Students at my school will be using iPads starting this fall. I want to know whether I can create a calendar on my Mac in iCal to share with students using iPads. Would the calendar appear in their iPad Calendar app? Would they be able to make any changes? Add notes?
Thanks for any information you might have.

You will need an iCloud account. You can share a non-editable calendar to people who don't have iCloud accounts, but if you want them to able to edit them they will have to have iCloud accounts (which are free).

There are older versions of Flash Player (for Android) at that link, but there are no guarantees any of them will work.

I think its stream, but I'm not sure that it matters that much what you
choose to use. They will get mapped to one another. The core control
is written in ATL and the data is extracted and placed in a LV VI file
as a LV Handle.

What bluetooth protocol does the iPod Touch use with a keyboard?

Hi...
Say, does anyone know what bluetooth protocol apple is using for their bluetooth keyboards for the iPhone and iPod Touch? It is probably HID, but the people at RIM (i.e. BlackBerry) use SPP. So I would think many 3rd party keyboards use SPP (Serial Port Protocol). But, then, there are many posts about "I wish Apple would support SPP" because people want to build apps that interface with external HW that only supports SPP.
What I want to do? (you ask)
I've one of these nice / expensive Think-out-side portable folding keyboards (good). That only has a serial interface (bad). There are many bluetooth "dongles" out there with serial ports (good). But they only support SPP or Serial Port Protocol (bad? maybe? depends).
See, I know RIM (BlackBerry) people support SPP on their devices. But I haven't heard (found) word one about what the iPod Touch supports. I would hate to spend $80 on one of these dongles and find out it doesn't work.
So, what does the iPod Touch use when talking to the bluetooth keyboard?
-thanks

From page 37 of iOS 4.1 Touch Users Guide:
Using an Apple Wireless Keyboard
For ease of typing, you can use an Apple Wireless Keyboard (available separately;
iPod touch 3rd generation or later).

Iphoto will not share with Facebook

I can't seem to get iphoto to share with my facebook account. I have verified my account info for facebook. i have deleted facebook and re-entered my info. In fact none of the sites to share with are eligible to be shared to.

What does your accounts page show, when you select "Facebook" in the iPhoto Preferences?
You should be seeing this, after you reentered your account details:
Is your Facebook account showing as enabled? Or don't they show in the "Share" pop-up menu?

What am I doing wrong with my form - XML schema producing inconsistent results

I have an interactive dynamic form built in LCD 8.2. The idea is that users fill in the form to indicate any fields that they want to update on our directory.
We do not have the necessary plumbing to get it to feed directly to the directory so the workaround is that the form generates an XML file. These files are then imported into Excel and then that file is submitted as a bulk update request.
I have a schema that I have embedded in the form using the Data Connection
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xsd:element name="MySite">
<xsd:complexType>
   <xsd:sequence>
    <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded" name="general">
     <xsd:complexType>
      <xsd:all>
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="FullName" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="StaffNumber" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="JobTitle" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="Responsibilities" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="LineManager" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="LMStaffNumber" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="AltContact" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="AltSE" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="Unit" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="TelExt" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="WorkMobile" />
       <xsd:element minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" name="OutHoursTel" />
      </xsd:all>
     </xsd:complexType>
    </xsd:element>
   </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
I use this same schema in Excel and then generate a test file from my form and then import it. All goes well.
I then try it again or get someone else to try it and it fails. What am I doing wrong? I thought that embedding the schema into the form would mean that it would become part of the form but I keep getting an error message saying it cannot find an XML map that corresponds to the data.

Thanks for your reply.
The form is fine and no error messages are evident until I attempt to import an xml file into Excel. The schema is very, very basic and no validation has been applied.
I've looked at the form today to investigate what the problem may be and have discovered three issues.
I tried with two different versions of the form to try and work out why one version worked and the other did not. The only obvious difference between them was that one had been Reader Enabled and it was this form that did not work.
The non-enabled form produced this output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <MySite>
- <general>
<FullName>th</FullName>
</general>
</MySite>
The enabled form produced something different.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <xfa:data xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/">
- <MySite>
- <general>
<FullName>gt</FullName>
</general>
</MySite>
<MySite />
</xfa:data>
Files with this extra line of code would fail to be imported into the Excel file.
Another issue was that the Reader Enabled form had a completely different file path for the embedded schema. In the non-enabled version the path pointed to the correct location on my personal drive. The Reader Enabled version could not find the schema as the path was incorrect and was pointing to a folder on the temporary drive. At no point had I manually amended this path to point to there!
The non-enabled form allowed me to import an xml file whereas the enabled form gave me an error message stating that:
"The document restricts some Acrobat features to allow for extended features in Adobe Reader. To create a copy of the document that is not restricted (and has no extended features in Adobe Reader), click Save a Copy."
Are these expected behaviours or is there something wrong?

What am I doing wrong with my recorded actions?

I'm trying to set up Photoshop to create a bunch of thumbnail images. I've got actions to select various preset sizes with the marquee tool, and then one action that copies, creates a new document using the clipboard preset, pastes, and then resizes the image to 150 x 150 px.
The problem is that the resizing seems to have a mind of its own. Sometimes in the new image I get the selected area with a big blank space surrounding it, and sometimes most of it gets pasted outside the canvas so only a small part is visible. What am I doing wrong?

No, sorry, it's CS1.

What is apple doing about numb fingers using the trackpad on the new mid 2012 macbook air?

What is apple doing with the trackpads on the mid 2012 MacBook Air, that creates numbness and pain in my fingers.

You have no idea what you are talking about catperson. This topic happens to be on one of the
Apple Support Cummunity conversation. It's called,
Hands go Numb, tingle from trackpad-
Do you even have a 2012 or newer laptop? If not, don't give advise as simple as go see a doctor. Will Apple be paying for my medical bills?
Yesterday is the first time my finger got so painful I could no longer work on my project. I iced it to help numb the numbness, usally the pain subsides when I stay off my laptop for hours however when I start working on it the pain returns and you need your index and middle finger to work that laptop. This is the first time the pain had not gone away, 24 hours later. It feeIs like the tip of my middle finger has a giant splinter in it, very sore! I bought the first edition Macbook Air laptop 4 years ago and never had this problem with my index and middle finger, until I started working on my new Air.
Look at how many people are having the same problem. It can not be a coencidence. This problem has cost me the use of my finger and the high expense for this new MacBook Air. I'm going to my apple store tomorrow and show them how many people have this problem with numbness. I think this problem goes way beyond giving me a refund for this computer.
Any thoughts after reading other people having the same painful experience?
So What is Apple going to do with the new MacBook Air trackpad that creates numbness in your fingers?
PS: I know the trackpad is made of glass, so I covered my trackpad with a clear cover they sell to put on iphones however that did not slove anything.

How can i upload with facebook using N2690

I want 2 upload to facebook using N2690

Hey Goldfishy86,
What kind of media files are you looking to upload onto facebook?
You could try log into the Facebook website on your device browser and log into your Facebook and view the original website not the mobile version, from there try to upload your media.
If it does not work and you are still looking to upload your videos to Facebook I suggest downloading Nokia PC Suite and transferring your videos to your PC and uploading it via your PC web browser.
I hope this helps, let me know if you manage to solve your issue!

thanks

Sounds like it might be a new VISTA or IE feature in VISTA. Maybe you could try a different browser in VISTA. Just a guess.
