What kind of software I need to make professional quality iDVD's slideshow?

I'm a photographer and right now I'm working with iPhoto to make photographs slideshows; next, export the slideshows to iDVD, but I need the higher quality on the iDVD photographs (Right now on iDVD I'm selected the "Encoding: Professional Quality"), what kind of additional software I need to do this?
Thanks for your help....

Burned dvd's are low res devices by nature. Meaning all data is eventually compressed into mpeg 2 (normally). If you opt to add still images to a dvd (with the exception of RAW image files added to the dvd rom section of the dvd) then all of these stills will also be of lower quality as well (normally about a third of a megapixel each). Dvd's have not kept pace with today's higher res cameras and camcorders and there is very little you can do to improve upon this unfortunately since most macs do not yet support burning a Blu-ray disc. When and if they ever do, then we will see some significant improvements all the way around since Blu-ray dvd's hold at least 5 times the data of a standard dvd and with significantly higher clarity and resolution than the standard Dvd's most of us use today.
Having said this you may want to consider alternate apps that specialize in slideshows like:

    Have a PowerBook G4 with software 10.4.11 and iTunes 9.2.  Got a new iPhone 5 - and seems iTunes does not recognize it. What kind of software update(s) do I need?

    None. An iPhone 5 requires Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to be synced from a Mac, which is above the maximum for a PowerBook G4(10.5.8.)

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    The type of plugin that you need depends on the type of video file that you wish to view. We would need more details to assist.

  • What kind of software distribute Zenworks Images too

    is it possible to distribute the Zenworks Image with another distribution system?
    there are a lot of distribution software on the market, is someone familar with them, and may know what kind of software distribute the Zenworks Image to the workstation too. ?
    here are some examples of software :
    * FAI OpenSource Software
    * M23 OpenSource-
    * Open PC Server Integration (opsi)
    * RPM mit YUM und Repositories-Server
    * MS SCCM
    * HP OpenView
    * IBM Tivoli Provisioning Manager IBM Tivoli Intelligent Orchestrator
    * DX-Union
    * INOSOFT Garibaldi
    * BARAMUNDI Client Management Suite
    * Altiris Client Management Suite
    * Prism Suite Client Management Suite
    * enteo [Automate Software Deployment and Management]
    did anybody know if they work with the zenworks image too?

    I'm not aware of tools to convert ZENworks images to a different format, and given ZENworks images are file aware, I can't imagine it would be easy to convert them. The safest option remains to restore the image to a workstation and then take a new image using the "other" imaging tool.
    Note that with a ZENworks imaging boot CD, you don't even need an imaging server. Having for example the ZENworks image on an external disk should be enough for manual image restore.

  • After obtaining the ObjectID, what crm call do I need to make to receive it's related fields?

    After obtaining the ObjectID, what crm call do I need to make to receive it's related fields?
    I currently have a PHP script which emails the ObjectID number to my email account (this was for initial testing).
    What CRM call do I need to make to obtain the customers information related to the ObjectID?
    I need to retrieve the customers username (or email) and their password. 
    I need this information to create another account on another external system.
    How the system will work:
    Customer makes a purchase and inputs their information including a username/password along with their payment information.
    After the transanction is complete the ObjectID is sent to my php script.
    The script takes the objectID and sends it back to BC to retreive the customers username/password.
    Once this is retreived, it is sent to an external database creating an account on another system.
    (If anyone has a quick script for this, feel free to share if you would like.)

    Seems like no one's biting and I don't have experience with the API much so you should probably hit up Mario in a private message to see if he can help: http://forums.adobe.com/pm-post!input.jspa?to=822747

  • What video card do I need to make Photoshop CC 2014 to use 3D? I have NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB graphics.

    What video card do I need to make Photoshop CC 2014 to use 3D? I have NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB graphics.

    A couple of questions:
    1.  Have you tried resetting your preferences?
    2.  If you go to Preferences > Performance - is "Use Graphics Processor" enabled?  If not, can you select it?
    Your system should be fine to support 3D in PS CC 2014.  Once I have more information from you we can move onto next steps if necessary.
    Thanks,

  • I need to know what kind of disk i need for my portege z835-sp3240L

    I have an Portege z835-sp3240L Ultrabook and the SSD disk failed, so i need to replace it. I want to know what kind of disk i need (size, inches, etc) Please, can you give all the info about the disk. I live in Chile, so i can´t take it to a Toshiba repair place.

    Portege Z835-SP3240L
    Downloads here.
    Essentially any capacity SATA disk that fits a laptop should do.
    Best to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. All the drivers and utilities are properly preinstalled. Windows is preactivated.
    If you failed to create recovery media, you can obtain it from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here. Toshiba in the US will ship to Chile (see this message).
    For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery media, which begins on p. 65 of the User's Guide.
       Portégé Z830 Series User’s Guide
    If the disk uses advanced-format technology, see my message about that.

  • IMAC 24¨ WHAT KIND OF MEMORY I NEED TO UPGRADE MY COMPUTER?

    I have an IMAC 24¨ What kind of memory i need to upgrade it? It has actually 667CL5

    You posted in the PPC iMac forum, but there was not a 24" PPC iMac.  There are several 24" Intel models.
    To tell what memory you need it is best to check the exact model identifier, click the apple left side of the menu bar, About This Mac, More Info, System Report, Hardware and what does it show as the Model Identifier?  With that you can go to either http://www.everymac.com and find the appropriate iMac and see what the correct memory is.  Or, you can go to OWC, http://www.macsales.com or Crucial, http://www.crucial.com and see what they offer for that model iMac.  They are the trusted sources of Mac memory.

  • What type of software is needed to edit Microsoft based doc,ppt,exl , etc on the iPad 2

    What type of software is needed to edit Microsoft based doc,ppt,exl , etc on the iPad 2

    I just opened Word and Excel files (technical documents) that were emailed to me in Pages and Numbers, respectively. The Word document was just fine regarding the text but the tables were garbled because merged cells in the original were not merged. I couldn't see any formatting problems with a detailed spreadsheet.
    If you're editing a text document you probably won't have any problems on the iPad; if there are tables or images/graphics, you can expect formatting issues about half the time. (I also deal with a lot of graphics intensive Word files from students on my laptop and have a similar incidence of formatting issues. But most of these documents I just have to read and understand, so I don't care if there are formatting issues.))
    I've had similar experiences with PowerPoint/Keynote translations. If it's a basic presentation with common fonts, things are very smooth; if not--there can be some formatting issues.
    Bottom line: if I just have to edit basic content, I wouldn't hesitate to do that on my iPad. If the formatting is crucial, I'll wait until I have access to my laptop which has Office.

  • Hi! a member said to get  MPEG Streamclip to see what kind of codec i need

    well,could anyone tell me how to have this program let me know what kind of codec i need?

    I meant within the program, not when trying to open the file. You need to convert it to be able to play in QT
    Here is a screenshot to give you an idea, MPEG Streamclip is reliant on codecs and that will determine what you can convert to. If something is missing than that is a codec you need.
