Why does Encore try to re-transcode compliant M2V files?

Encore will only try to re-transcode an MPEG-2 file in 2 circumstances.
1 - The asset is not properly DVD-Compliant.
This could be for several reasons, the most likely offenders being either too high a bitrate or an incorrect GOP size. DVD-Video limits us to a total
i combined Audio & Video
bitrate of 9800 kbps, or 9.8 Mb/s. This is also a peak value, not an average one. The easiest way to check the bitrate is with the excellent "Bitrate Viewer" available from http://www.tecoltd.com/bitratev.htm
2 - The total combined bitrate of the Audio & Video files
i on the timeline
exceeds the maximum bitrate set in the Project Settings (Advanced).
If, for example, this is set to 7Mb/sec, and the peak rates when combined
i exceed
this number, Encore will re-transcode.
The only solution in both cases is to re-transcode the original source file to MPEG-2 or else to use the uncompressed asset & allow Encore to transcode automatically.

The authoring itself is possible. It can be done (and is also being promoted as such) in Encore.
Also there is a possibility to burn simple Bluray discs (or even normal DVD discs with Bluray content that play on Bluray players) in Toast 10.
Thanks...

Why does Encore copy the file into Cache?

It seems that Encore will copy the m2v file into ProjectDir/Cache\Media Cache Files\mlf.cache.MACC
The file is rather large, nearly 4 GB (2gb for each ac3 file).
I used to run the previous version and I don't think it makes copy in Cache.
Why does Encore do that?
Any way to make Encore just use the m2v file directly without copying it into Cache?
Thanks!

Same prob for me. Very annoying becuz the program itself is very useful, probably the best dvd menu making system ever but I was tryin to set up an audio dvd wit my own design, prepared sound files like converted them all to ac3 format but every time it is the same, despite deleting cache, the program recreates and doubles these unknown file types of large size taking up irrationally large space. A normal dvd size of 4.7 gbytes to set up would in this case require 50 gbytes or more as I have calculated. More than ten times larger than one dvd. Ridiculous.
If there's no need for transcode by file format ac3, then why should they time after time be stored in cache mostly taking up double space ? It should be working as cd or dvd write where you're offered two options, either creating an image file on hard disk or on the fly which doesn't take any space of the disk and is more direct.
So what should I do now ? Look for another program or surrender this one and let it eat up more than 50 gigas ?
Awful situation is I don't have time to look after programs.
But I ain't got this amount of disk space either.
My project must be ready in a few days but no hope for that like this.
Help me, it's urgent. Thank you.

Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?

Why does not Lightroom allow me to import RAW files from my Canon 5D Mark III?
Error message that it does not support cr. file

Which version of Lightroom?
As Hal points out, if it's pre v 4.1, you can't expect an old version of the software to know what to do with a camera that didn't even exist when the software was released.
Given how many times a day this same issue comes up, maybe it's time Adobe changed the error message to something like "your camera is too old to be supported by this version of Lightroom. Please upgrade" or similar...

Why Does Encore 2.0 Transcode Twice?

Hi!
I prefer to transcode my assets (DV-avi's) prior to burning and have noticed several times that even if the status of all assets says Transcoded, Encore 2.0 sometimes transcode one or more items once again when i burn the DVD eventhoug they already have been transcoded. I dont remember this behaviour when i was using Encore 1.5.
A couple a minutes ago i had five motion menues transcoded prior to burning the disc, and when i pressed Build to build the DVD Encore 2.0 did transcode one of them once again.
- Anybody know why?
- Does this happen to you?

I'm building an SD DVD from a 90 minute HD quicktime output from FCP in DVCPro HD at 23.976 fps. I have a new Intel 8 core Mac with 8 Gb of RAM and 2 TB of internal drive space running CS3 production premium. The quality setting I used was a 2 Pass vbr 1.5 lowest, 4.9 average and 7.8 max data rate at 23.976 fps. The audio was stereo PCM at 48khz. The transcode step of the build ran for 5 hours and then the lower progress bar reset to the beginning and started over again! I let it run for another half hour to see if it was going faster than the first time but it wasn't so I stopped it and used a lower quality file from Compressor instead. What happened? Was it going to take 11 hours to encode a 90 minute film?

C7 powersave: why does it try to connect?

Still experimenting with my new C7. The battery was getting a little bit low - 40% - so I activated Power Saving. Immediately, a little 'connect' pop-up appeared, connecting to my local wifi for a few seconds, then disconnecting.
Why does it do this? Can/should it be stopped? I don't mind this happening at home or even in the UK, but it will be very annoying and expensive if it happens abroad.
Kate

or either there is a program affecting and trying to connect or must be a bug
what you can try is when pop up the icon top left, inticating that is trying to connect ... is to click this icon
should take you to connection manager and there should see what program is trying to connect
then from its settings i guess you can ajust it
also try in the menu>settings>connectivity>>settings>
switch to wlan only or manual
data use i home>always ask
data abroad always ask
and down check at destinations at the internet access the priority

Why does Flash try to automatically try to install google toolbar and Chrome

I am reaching the point where I will remove Adobe and adobe flash if they continue to automatically try to place google tool bar or google chrome on my machine. I have had to stop the download manually every time I do a adobe flash update because it tries to download the google toolbar or google chrome. I already have google chrome which I hate and use sparingly because of extensions like "Ace Race" which are invasive. I hate google's attempts to invade my space and spy. So why does Adobe keep pushing Google applications?

don't allow flash player to automatically update.
update manually after you tire of seeing warning messages about your flash player being vulnerable. when you update always untick tag-along ware, Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions
or use Adobe Flash Player Distribution | Adobe so you don't have to remember unticking the tag-along ware.

Why does safari try to open my Norton File Guard protected file?

When I start up my Mac Powerbook (OSX 10.5.8), Norton File Guard reports that Safari (version 5.0.6) is trying to open one of my Norton-guarded files, which happens to be an InTouchWith data file with the extension .itw. (InTouchWith is an older Contact Management application from Prairie Group Software). Why would Safari try to open this file, and how do I find out what other un-guarded files Safari is 'secretly' trying to open every time i launch Safari? This is very disconcerting, to say the least, from a security standpoint. This Powerbook can't run any Mac system higher than 10.5.8, and can't run any newer Safari version, so upgrading to gain newer security features of Safari, is out of the question. When I launch Firefox ver. 3.6.28, (the newest version that is compatible with my Mac), Firefox doesn't trigger these Norton FileGuard error messages.

Get rid of Norton.
Norton Antivirus (made by Symantec) has a very long and illustrious reputation for mangling Mac OS X systems, sometimes to the point where a complete reinstall is necessary. Among other things, it installs kernel extensions which are known to cause kernel panics and system freezes; it contains known and documented bugs which can silently corrupt Adobe Photoshop and Adobe InDesign files, destroy a user's ability to authenticate as an administrator, and (on PPC systems) can cause Classic to stop functioning; and Symantec has on at least two occasions now released flawed .dat file updates which erroneously report certain critical Mac OS X files as "viruses." (Deleting these "viruses" causes damage to the system that in some cases renders it unbootable.)

Why does adobe try to force Google Chrome on to my computer and a Google Toolbar! Thats is fasist!

also why does adobe require so many updates! why can't they get it right the first five hundred time i update it!
why cant i update or down load with out having to get google tool bar to be spyied on? WTF? And Google Chrome if i wanted Google Chrome i down load it directly!
Google collecting and storing information is an invasion of privacy! If Adobe is so free thinking and so advanced, ask if we want ******** toolbars downloaded it sucks when you think your down loading something and get a new webpage and toolbars. Dont do business this way. Its arrogant & ignorant

Adobe never installed anything on my computer I didn't want. You can always uncheck bundled software that is offered with the standard downloads, or use the offline installers that are not bundled with any 3rd party software.

Why does iTunes not refresh the Music Library if files are updated?

What if have already a nice library SYSTEM built for my music, and every time I add 30-50 files to 30-50 different locations, iTunes requires me to add the same song again... What if I am doing this updating for 3 hours and I can't remember anymore which songs I added to my Brazilian compilation folder? Why can't iTunes update the library with added files? I see this question popping up on a lot of forums. This is very cumbersome. I keep my international music collection organized by country of origin. If I let iTunes consolidate my music, it will put everything into one big folder organized by name of artist. I definitely don't want to let the program do that. I would lose all my work and all my system.
Once I imported the folder system into iTunes though as a reference, it does not recognize if there was a change, music added, music deleted, music reogranized. It doesn't make sense to delete everything from the iTunes Music Library every time I update my music collection.
Where is the solution? I want iTunes to find the changes and apply it to my Music Library automatically.
I can live with my iPod only having the files in one big library, since I mostly use it for shuffle play anyway, but I want to keep my originals in an orderly manner based on style, country of origin, etc. I don't want to end up having all my files renamed and moved.
So I need iTunes to refresh my Music Library by looking at the original folder I imported the list from, and make the necessary changes.

I guess then this is a serious shortcoming of iTunes... Up till this point I owned an RCA Lyra MP3 player and it had no problems whatsoever doing these things. I guess, after seeing how iTunes and iPod works, I'd rather return to Lyra if it had an 80 G version. The only thing that still keeps me with iPod is the capacity.
It seems like that iTunes is a very cumbersome program and it tries to be so much user friendly that it even tries to eliminate the human element. Sometimes, it makes sense to keep files organized in specific manner. Especially when there is work involved and productivity.
I guess I will just delete everything from the play list and read in the main folder every once in a while, leaving the machine working on it during the night or something, then another night, it will refresh my iPod. That's the only solution I see right now.
It is interesting that a huge program like iTunes cannot do what a small one like Lyra can. And I even read in user groups that some people created programs for this problem, but those programs don't work with iTunes 7 well yet, so I am stuck with the manual updating or the brutal deletion and re-reading.
Thank you for the answer. At least I know what not to expect from the program. I just use it for only one purpose: load music onto iPod, then forget about it. It quite an unuseful program for me otherwise.

Why does Mozilla open when I open a Tiff file in Photoshop?

Ever since I started using Photoshop CS5 in 64-bit, I noticed that every time I double click to open a .TIFF file in Bridge, Firefox opens and puts the image file name in the address bar. Photoshop continues to open also, but why is Firefox opening? I have already changed in the Tools>Options>Applications so that image/tiff files open in PS CS5. So why does Firefox open?

What's the file association set to for the TIFF extension in the Windows Control Panel > Folder Options > File Types ?

Type Kit- Why does a dialog box appear when opening a file?

Type Kit- Why does a dialog box appear every time I open a file- asking to substitute fonts that I've had working for years. Also, what is that pink box around the type- they are not missing fonts.

Which version?- Latest Creative Cloud Type Kit
Which system?- Mac OS 10.10.1, iMac 7i
Where does the file come from? File is an Adobe Illustrator CC
Which fonts?- Any and all fonts that was used in the .ai file which I have been using for years.
Do you use font management? Which one? Mac Font Book
Are you really sure that your fonts are properly installed? Yes and verified.
Did it ever work? Yes, Ever since I opened Font Kit on Creative Cloud I get a window stating that the fonts in an existing file are missing and do I want to substitute.
Did you just upgrade?- Apps always upgraded.
Did you change systems?- Ever since I opened Font Kit on Creative Cloud
The PINK box around the type, I believe, indicates a missing font- but they are not missing and I'm sure as hell not going to let Type Kit control MY FONTS. How do I turn it off as the pink box is intruding with the design composition???
SEE Sumit Singh’s reply- worked for the pink highlight. I have to see about the dialog box thing- I will let you know.
