What To Do With Leftover .m2v files

After completing a DVD creation session, I'm left with the .m2v and .ac3 files Compressor created during the process.  Are these files benefitial to save for future DVD burns if needed?  Will they save me time in the next process?  I tried this by pointing to these files when I wanted another DVD, but compressor seems to just start re compressing and it takes just as long to re create the same DVD session.  I don't see the time savings.
Or should I use these files and work with them in DVD Studio Pro, and it saves processing time?

Im guessing the session you refer to is a DVD that was created directly in Compressor via a job action. Another workflow would be to output to HD, which creates a disk image that can be used to burn multiple copies – a considerable time-saver.
And as dc points out, the MPEG-2 and AC3 files that Compressor spits out are DVD compliant and can be used in a DVDSP project.

  • What's wrong with the XML file????

  • Issue with HDV m2v files and importprocessserver.exe

    I have 18 or so 40Min m2v files at 1440x1080 29.7P, These file go into premiere and edit with no problem. But when I close premiere and reopen it the project takes over 2 hours to load. The reason for the slowdown is that ImporterProcessServer.exe is going through all 400 or so GB of video and reading it all in again. Now I know that premiere needs to make mpegindex files for m2v's and it does do that, all the videos has a corresponding entry in the media cache and a mpegindex file in their directory. Does anyone know why its still reading through all the video files? I'm 100% positive this is not a hardware issue but just because I'm sure someone will ask:
    3.166GHZ Dual Core
    8GB Ram
    2x80GB raid 0 (os)
    2x1TB raid 0 (footage)
    both raids are recently defragmented and have in excess of 40% diskspace free
    windows vista 64bit

    As I stated in the original post the only preset I have that
    even comes close to matching a P2 Preset is " HDVCPRO50/720p/24pn" .
    I have installed all the P2 software that came with camera and all drivers. I have looked at the Panasonic site. Called Adobe and no help only thing is Adobe said I needed Quicktime 7.6.5 not 7.6.6.

  • What to do with js, css files

    I hope this question is appropriate for this forum because I have scratched my head for hrs. I am in the mission of finding a simple drop down menu and came across to this site http://css-tricks.com/simple-jquery-dropdowns/
    It uses minimum jquery and CSS to achieve it. Looks like it is reasonable for a novice to tackle. Codes are downloaded and unzipped ( there are css,images,js). Question is how do I even get this to run under my test application ? I would think I need to import the image files but what to do with the rest of files? they are not plugin. Could any guru give me a jump start ?
    Any help is appreciated.
    ZenG

    You should be able to import them into APEX under "Shared Components - Static Files" and "Shared Components - CSS". Then you can include the files in your page template using the following html code:
    for js files
    <script src="#APP_IMAGES#hoverIntent.js"></script>for css files
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="#APP_IMAGES#style.css" type="text/css" />After a quick glance, I don't think you'll need the image they have included.

  • What to do with "Unix Executable Files"?

    What do I do with Unix Executable Files? I've tried navigating to them in Terminal and typing in the file name but that doesn't work. How do I execute them?
    I'm trying to install some web development framework software, and it appears that the command names start with the file I'm referring to but when I'm in the directory containing the Unix Executable File and type in the file name followed by a command it doesn't work. I get "command not found"

    Hi warpdesign,
       In old-style shell environments, all files in the current working directory were defined to be in your PATH, where the shell looks for executables. That was before Trojan Horses. Now you have to specify the current working directory in the command line. Fortunately there is a nice "shorthand" for that. If foo.sh is an executable in the current working directory then it can be invoked this way:
    ./foo.sh
       If you're interested in learning a little more about UNIX, I used to have a long post of links to what I think are some of the better beginning UNIX tutorials and books. However, as others posted great links and I stole them, my post became too long so I put it in a web page. Bill Scott did the same thing so here is Bill's and here is mine.

  • What is wrong with my txt file or merge doc?

    I'm trying to merge data from a txt file.  It's for name badges.  I've got the document designed (8-1/2 x 11" Avery 5392, 6 badges per sheet) and connected successfully to my data source.  There are only 4 types of info in the txt file (agency name, state, name, title).  When I create the merge fields for each badge position and click preview, I only get the first record repeated into each of the 6 locations on the page.  What am I missing or doing wrong?  I'm using InDesign CS2.
    I've attached the txt file.
    I've also attempted this with a csv file with and got the same results.
    Thanks.

    I downloaded your sample files, and here is what I had to adjust:
    1, I made the master page a single page; not facing pages. I changed from inches to picas
    2. I made two layers: one for graphics and second for text, above the graphics layer
    3. I put the artwork ai file on the graphics  layer on the master page
    4. I deleted 5 of 6 duplicate text frames on page 1; leaving only the first upper left text frame
    5. I moved that lone textframe to the master page, in the same relative position
    6. Text in that text frame should have been controlled with paragraph styles, BTW, but that is a detail
    7. I returned to view page 1
    Then, going to the DataMerge panel, I turned on preview and also clicked the right-most button at the bottom of the panel to setup the merge.
    All records and Multiple Records per document page
    Then, onto the Multiple Record Layout tab:
    Top margin 16pica
    Bottom margin 3pica
    Left margin 2pica
    Right margin 2pica
    Spacing between columns 1p6
    Spacing between rows 11p6
    Check on Preview Multiple Record Layout
    OK to generate
    So, it turns out your txt file was OK as it was.

  • What to do with an ISO file?

    I've downloaded a zip file which has expanded to an iso file - I thought i needed to burn it to dvd before opening but nothings happened.... it does look like it hasn't fully uncompressed.... any ideas? Thanks....

    An ISO is yet another compressed file. So your compressed ZIP archive was just a compressed ISO archive (double-zip!). Not sure why anyong would do that, but simply copying the ISO to a disc won't work. You'll end up with a single file (the ISO) burned on the disc.
    You need to do a "burn image" session. Nearly all burning software has that ability. Basically the burning software unzips the archive to disc during the burn so that you end up with a multitude of files on your disc.
    ISO is particularly useful when imaging a bootable disc, and then making copies from that image that boot like the original.
    Good luck.

  • What's wrong with my Quartz files?

    I have an issue with Quartz Composer files. Some screensaver files, like arabesque, shell spectrum, and RSS visualizer, crash system preferences whenever i try to select them. Also, the actual files (the ones in the system folder) make the finder crash whenever i try to open them or use quick look. I've already replaced the files thinking they were corrupted, but it keeps happening. I transferred the files to my old iMac G5 and it reads them just fine! Help!!
    Also, iChat keeps crashing whenever i try to use the video effects.

    Have you by any chance installed the beta version of the upcoming Safari? If so, that's the problem. See this thread for more details:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7975911
    If you aren't using the beta Safari afraid I don't know. Mine are all working just fine in 10.5.5. I don't use iChat, so don't know if that would be affected by the same problems.

  • What to do with MPEG-1 Files!?!?

    I am trying to blend some photos and video together to make a movie (and ultimately a DVD).  I am totally flying by the seat of my pants here, but now I realize that the video files I was given are MPEG-1 and nothing on my machine appears to be compatible...  and guidence about what I can do to convert the files or get the programs I DO have to deal with the files in their current form?
    Thanks in advance.

    MPEG Streamclip (free) can convert your MPEG-1 files to DV Stream for use in any iMovie version.

    It is both easier and more complicated than that. I really can't give you any "sample code" because it isn't a coding issue. It is more of a data representation issue. XML is both a "simple" markup language and a complex data representation language. You need to read up a bit on XML to see what you can do with it. Come up with a test data set that is formatted the way that make sense to you. Or, maybe create a test data structure in your code and save that to XML to see how the native representation looks.
    At that point, you will know what your input looks like and you will know what your output should look like. You just need a way to get from A -> B. For XML, the quickest way to do that is through XSLT.

  • What To Do With An .img File?

    My Cisco rep provided a download of a .img file for the 5.x version of the Cisco VPN client, but I can't do anything with it. My CD/DVD burning app won't handle a .img file and, when I changed the extension to .iso as recommended in several non-Cisco forums, it didn't recognize that, either. So far I've been unable to reconnect with my rep, but I need this client. Any suggestions anyone?

    The image that you were provided with: sa500-k9-2.1.18.img is incorrect. That is not VPN Client version 5.x nor 4.x. That's the client to connect to SA500 series router.
    Please kindly request your rep to provide you with the correct Cisco VPN Client version 5.x image for Windows 7 machine. Please also advise your rep whether it's 32-bit or 64-bit.
    The latest version of VPN Client is version 5.0.7:
    For 32-bit: Filename is vpnclient-win-msi-5.0.07.0410-k9.exe (VPN Client Software for x86 32-bit version of XP/Vista/Windows 7 - Microsoft Installer).
    For 64-bit: Filename is vpnclient-winx64-msi-5.0.07.0440-k9.exe (VPN Client Software for x86 64-bit version of Vista and Windows 7 - Microsoft Installer).
    Hope this helps.

  • "No image found in subtitle script line" -- What's wrong with my FAB file import?

    I've used Encore for years, version 4 and now 5.1 on both Mac and PC (Windows 7).
    I export FAB files with bitmaps from my subtitling program and import them into subtitle tracks in Encore.
    The last few times this has not worked.  Every time I export FAB files and try to import them into Encore, I get the error message "No image found in subtitle script line."  I've used different machines and different versions (4 and 5.1) of Encore.
    There are indeed images (bitmaps) in the folder containing the FAB file.
    Is there a solution to this problem?
    Thank you!

    I don't recall anyone describing this problem. If you can post a link to a short fab script, I'll test it in an Encore project. I am CS5 only, but it is worth a shot.

  • What's up with this-QT file showing up in FFox and Opera and not in Safari

    I am using the latest version of Dreamweaver (Adobe) and have embedded a quicktime file on a page such that it successfully shows up (via DW preview in browser feature) and plays in FireFox (latest version) and Opera (latest version). It's not showing up, though, in Safari. When I look at the code in Safari, the entire coding for displaying the file has disappeared; when I look at the page code under the other browsers, though - it's right there (and hence displays the file properly).
    Ok - I give up. What is up here???!!

    Ok, here is the original code in the HTML for just the quicktime file that's embedded:

    Here is the code I see when I PREview it in Safari using DW (where the file appears to have not been embedded at all):
