Why is one hour of video 12 gb????
I have never experienced this before. I import one hour of video and idvd complains that it won't fit (even on a dl dvd). I look at the clip info- 12 gb!!!.
I have never had a problem making idvd projects on this imac g5. Is there something suddenly wrong with the compression?
Hi theresaa:
The file size for uncompressed DV material is 12 GB for one hour of video so that seems correct..
And, a DVD holds a maximum of 120 min of video regardless of the original file size.
Use File / Share / iDVD and it will automatically compress it to fit.

One hour of video equals 13 GB, right?
Howdy gang. I haven't been here for around six months. Been busy with website stuff. Now that that's done, I can get back to video work. Yeah! The forum looks a bit different, but it looks like you guys are still a super funny and really helpful group.
Here's my quick question. My boss wants me to put everything I've ever shot on tape into my computer. Now, I know the old saying, one hour of video equals 13 GB. But to be clear, and to be sure I don't buy a harddrive that ends up being too small, does that mean if I capture a one hour MiniDV tape it will take up 13 GB on my harddrive? Or is it 13 GB for an hour that's been exported as a QT movie?
I should know this. I'm embarrassed for not being sure. But I get kinda panicky and second-guess myself when it comes to asking the boss for new equipment.
So am I right in figuring that a 500 GB drive will hold footage from about 38 one-hour MiniDV tapes?
Thanks!jbell brings up a good point.
Drive manufacturers sell drives with space calculated in decimal, while the computer sees space calculated as binary.
To a drive manufacturer, a gigabyte is 1,000 megabytes. To a computer, a gigabyte is 1,024 megabytes. Therefore, when you buy a 500 GB drive (500,000 MB), it's actually only 488.2 GB to the computer (because 500 GB would be 512,000 MB).
And when an hour of DV is said to be 13 GB, that's 13 * 1,024 MB, not 13 * 1,000 MB.
If you go by the binary prefixes outlined in this wikipedia article (which have yet to gain traction), a computer's gigabyte should be called a gibibyte (GiB).

Why does one of my videos show up as "widescreen" in IDVD?
One of my videos, which I exported from FCP, turns out "widescreen" when I import it in iDVD even though it is a regular 4:3. I was wondering if anyone knew how I could correct this.
Thank you!I'm having the exact same issue in iDVD. I've exported QuickTime files using Final Cut Pro 6. In a project I'm currently working on 2 out of 10 QuickTime files previewed in widescreen in iDVD - even though they are all 4:3 clips. I tried creating a new sequence, pasting the content into the new sequence and re-exporting the files but so far I'm still having the exact same widescreen preview issue.

Why is one of the video and audio feeds in my recording gone?
My company does webinars for subscription members, and we broadcast them via Adobe Connect. We then package up some of the recordings and put them on YouTube as promos for a larger series, etc. We had the first session of a really marketable series Monday night, and so I was prepping the recording this morning so we could put it on YouTube as a promo for the series. I opened the "Make FLV" option in order to make an FLV of the session. When the window opened, it wasn't large enough to see everything, so I expanded it. At this point, I noticed that one of the video feeds for a presenter was frozen, and his audio feed wasn't working, so I closed it. I opened the recording normally and found the same thing. I googled the problem, and found this: No audio in recording | Adobe Connect Support Blog
It turns out, if you resize the window (which it doesn't tell you not to do), your recording may be corrupted. Is this really true? Did someone design something in a way that users doing normal user things could ruin their entire project? This is going to cost my department a bunch of money because we either have to pay the speaker to come back or figure out some kludge to fix it (or just eat a cost to marketing that's greater than what we pay for our Adobe license), and as usual it's just about impossible to find a way to actually contact an Adobe support rep. Anyone have anything that could un-ruin my day? Sorry if I seem angry; I am.Call support at 800-945-9120 or 800-422-3623
Or contact them through here: Adobe Connect Help | Adobe Connect Support -
I have edited a movie in Final Cut Pro and the video has been smooth all the time.
Now, when the one hour long movie is ready the video seem to paus every 5 sec (only for half a second). It does it all the way through the movies.
What is wrong? All the sudden.We need info, info, info!
What version of FCP X?
Did you render? what are the project specs? do you use many compound clips? how much ram, hard drive space, how is the hard drive connected?
It looks like your mac can't keep up. Maybe the bottleneck is the hard drive, or something else.
Try exporting a master file and see if the video is ok.
Also, keep Activity Monitor open and see how much memory pressure you've got. -

Premiere Elements -Saving part of one hour video
Imported from only VHS home movies into Premiere Elements 8 a one hour video. I would like to just flag a specific segments, such as minutes 4-8 and export that to a new avi file. After that I might want to export minutes 12-20, etc.
To date I have been cutting and deleting everyting except what I want to save, saving that file, then importing the original file back into premiere and cutting and deleting everything except for what I want on the next file.
Seems like way back when, I was able to save various segments of an open file, but not sure.
Any help would be appreciated. Tried to ask adobe when searching for answers about Premiere 8 crashing so much, no problems with 7, but they refered me to Adobe.TV, where I did not find any answers. Maybe in tutorial, but not able to find it.
Thanks in advance for any helpHere's a look at the WAB (Work Area Bar), and how it's set. Note: this is from PrE 4, but should be the same in all recent versions.
Hope that this helps,

Hi,
can any one tell me why when I sync my Iphone to my Mac all my Calendar to do´s appear as though due for one hour later than they show in my computer? Does anyone know how to fix it??Not simple enough. Please read the original concern.
The issue is not "getting music to the new machine" or "authorizing the new machine" or "transferring purchases from an idevice". The issue is that after doing all those things, even creating a backup using the new iTunes/Mac, syncing my device with the new library erases all the app data from the iPhone, as well as folder structure and page layout. Music is expendable in this situation as it's just a matter of moving the files around. (Which I did before I ever started this exercise.)
The problem is that everything from email accounts to folders are lost when I sync the device with a new computer. I tried this on my iPad first and spent a good deal of time re-arranging everything and getting all the data back. The pictures are just gone. Good thing I backed them up on the old PC.
It won't be as simple on my iPhone as I have a ton of stuff on it and can't afford to lose anything. Some of the data is gave saves and such, but other things are more important. And I don't want to lose those game saves either. -

Why does printing a pdf take more than one hour?
Printing a single page from a pdf document (simple text) takes well over one hour. Surely, this can't be normal. Is this a known bug or is something wrong with my setup? Is there a solution/workaround?
Mac OS X 10.7.3, Canon MP550 printer.jmsuijkerbuijk wrote:
The size of the document is 15.3 MB. I only needed to print one single page from that document, which took me about 70 minutes.
For the record it is possible to have a large text-based PDF. What can increase the file size is the presence of images in the document. I have a training document I created in Word with lots of screen grabs that is 17MB. After converting it to PDF using Acrobat Pro the resulting PDF is 9.6MB. I also have a Snow Leopard manual - one of the David Pogue missing manuals - that is 15.2MB. So a large PDF file does not automatically mean it is image-based as has been suggested. And even if it was image-based file, which is usually TIFF encoded for b&w and JPEG encoded for colour documents, a single page of that document should not take that long to print.
With the document open in Acrobat you can select File > Properties and under the Description section you will see what application created the document and under the Advanced section you will see what application was used to create the PDF. This will give you some insight into the type of document you have. But if you did not create this PDF then there is not much you can do anyway.
If the same single page prints fine using Preview, then there could be a print setting in Acrobat that is causing the long delay. One setting is located in the Advanced print dialog menu. With the print dialog window open, you will see the Advanced button (outlined in red).
With the Advanced setting window displayed you will see the setting "Print as Image". Having this enabled can dramatically increase the file size of the document to be printed. -
Why is the iCloud time one hour behind Exchange?
When I'm sending calendar invites from my Outlook 2010 on Exchange 2003 Central European Time to an iCloud Account, the invite appaers in the iCloud account one hour too early.
Both calendar are set to Berlin/Amsterdam timezone.
Daylight savings are managed on both systems automatically.
It does not matter if I receive the invitation on my iPhone, or directly in iCloud.com website. It appears all the time one hour too early.
any ideas?
here is the meeting.ics sent by Outlook to the iCloud account:

Trying to backup my daughters phone so we can get a new phone. But when we try to back it up to my icloud it is showing an incomplete after one hour. What I'm I doing wrong?
This may be caused by a corrupt existing backup that needs to be deleted, or by data on your device that is causing the backup to fail. To troubleshoot these, try deleting your last iCloud backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, tap your device under Backups, then tap Delete Backup. Then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on and try backing up again.
If it still won't back up, you may have an app or something in your camera roll that is causing the backup to fail. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If the backup is successful, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is causing the backup to fail and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup. -
I imported an hour of video into iMovie HD and cut it down to a 33 sec clip, and emptied the trash. When I save the project, the file size is 20Gb. How can I save just the 33 sec clip?
Non-destructive editing is an important feature of iMovie HD 6.
iMovie preserves the entire copy of every clip you place into your movie in case you change your mind at a later stage.
So, if you have cut out one minute from a 45 minute clip, iMovie will have stored two complete copies of that clip. This is why is helps to set import as 3-5 minute clips rather than one huge chunk. As DV runs at 13GB per hour your project files can get very big.
One workaround is to complete the editing of a section of the movie, then export that to Quicktime: highlight the clip/s, choose Share-Quicktime, turn on Share selected clips only, and choose Full Quality from the pop-ip menu.
Once you have saved the stand-alone clip to your hard drive, you can re-import it into your project using the File/Import command, and delete the original long clip/s from the project. -
Split 3 hour lecture video into a 3 part series...
Trying to figure out how can I maintain quality and send it to youtube? Would you split the video up more into maybe 6 parts? I dont wont to loose any quality and I need the full 3 hours of video because its lecture. I want to put it on youtube. What is the maximum size that i can upload to youtube? I have uploaded over a gig at one point. I recorded my video at 60i in MXP mode with my canon xa10.
AFAIK, you could load the full lecture. Check to ensure that your account permits videos longer than 15 minutes and upgrade if it doesn't. A three hour video file at FCP's default YT setting should weigh in at about 12 GB. Huge to be sure, but in theory it should still be OK. I would export from FCP and then use their uploader; definitely would not try to upload it through FCP.
As a practical matter, however, you might want to break it into parts – just to guard against the possibility that a connection glitch might occur after hours of uploading. That would be frustrating, so why tempt fate?
