Would the quality of my live HBO PPV EVENT order affected by a slowdown of my FIOS internet?

I see that non-live On Demand streamed video are severely affected (animation are slow and the images are pixelating) but I'm not sure if a live sports broadcast will be affected.

I believe that PPV is done using a QAM TV channel, not IP (like VOD).  If you are tuning to a channel for your PPV event then it has nothing to do with your Internet speed - it is carried on a totally different optical wavelength and not IP delivered.

  • Why would the quality of text become degraded when slideshow project is burned to DVD

    I created 25 slideshows in Aperture, exported them as mov files, then imported them into iMovie to make one large slideshow with chapters. Then I exported this iMovie project to iDVD. After creating a theme I burned the project to a disk image. It was at this point that the comments on each photo that I had incorporated back in the Aperture phase, looked like severe jpg compression while the photos themselves did not appear degraded. Can anyone explain why that happened, and what I can do about it? I was using the latest version of Aperture, iMovie '08 and iLife '08 on an iMac running OS 10.6.7

    There are a couple of issues.
    First: The Aperture images used in iDVD are the Aperture PREVIEW images; you need to go into Apperture's preferences and increase the size of the preview images (Preference>Previews).  A better solution (in my opinion) is to actually export the image from Aperture at a reasonable size (for NTSC, something like 854x480; for PAL, 1024x576) to a folder on your desktop and use THOSE exported images..  Note that going to larger sizes won't give better quality - and may, in fact, slightly reduce the quality because of the Quicktime interpolation that will be required in iDVD.
    Second:  DVDs are low resolution devices (like 640x480 pixels for NTSC) and can not maintain small type.  See http://homepage.mac.com/prof_pixel/text_test_iLife09.html for an experiment I did a couple of years ago for some type size examples.

  • The 2014 ASUG Data Quality Survey is Live

    This is the third ASUG survey from the Data Governance Special Interest Group (SIG)/ Metric Working Group. Like the other two surveys from 2009 and 2011, this survey is polling how companies are managing quality control for their master data, in particular the number of controls and in what areas.
    The main difference between this and previous surveys is that we are asking that you respond for a single domain (customer, material, vendor) per survey
    (you can take it more than once if you have input for multiple domains). In previous surveys, the majority of respondents were only able to complete the
    questions for one domain with a level of confidence. This change will allow for a cleaner analysis.
    This survey will be used for benchmarking what companies are measuring, and not the quality of your data. That will be a future topic focused on the popular
    areas of measurement.
    Before you take the survey, we recommend you have the list of what your company is measuring and the ASUG Taxonomy Handbook (available on the ASUG Data Governance SIG discussion board as well as at www.DataIntent-LLC.com, or on the LinkedIn discussion group: ASUG Data Quality Controls Taxonomy). Some questions will refer to the number of queries you are measuring by the taxonomy categories.
    Please do not get caught up in precision; it is better to have many participants and be close, than for us to lose your input because you are overly precise about the numbers of queries by taxonomy node.
    This survey is divided into three main parts: demographics, master data controls poll (customer, material or vendor) and operations; followed by a few
    questions about the survey itself including an opt-in opportunity should you like to see the results. In order to qualify to see the composite data, you must
    complete 29 of the 43 questions. Everyone qualifies for the summary report, which will be available in the near future on the ASUG website and through
    various presentations.
    We expect this survey to take about 20 minutes and assure you all individual responses are confidential.
    As long as you return to the survey from the same PC, you may save and return to the same survey (this will help you to collaborate).
    If at any time you would like assistance with this survey or the ASUG Taxonomy Handbook, please reply to the discussion thread, or email [email protected] or any member on the steering committee for data quality metrics found at the end of the survey.
    We welcome your participation in this survey - please contact any steering committee member with questions or respond to the discussion on the website.
    Thank you,
    ASUG Data Governance Team

    Just updating in case anyone else has this problem.
    1) The missing help files are appraently a known issue: our Oracle account manager says they can get a complete copy from somewhere and provide it to us. So if you have this problem, as far as I know you'll need to chase up someone in Oracle at this stage.
    2) I think that linux install is the server component only; the client is windows only; and the help files come with the client: so help files are not likely to be available from some other install, as far as I can work out.

  • The quality of streaming a live recorded feed

    Hello,
    I'm asking this as a general post in regards to the quality of streaming video a flash based app provides. When you compair it to say the Flash Media Live Encoder, it's compression of the camera is terrible. Is there ever going to be something that is able to compress the video better and give a greater experience?

  • I want to FaceTime with a friend in Japan.  Can I just call her through my contacts list the same way I would call my friend who live next door to me?

    I want to FaceTime with a friend in Japan.  Can I just call her through my contacts list the same way I would call my friend who live next door to me?

    Short Answer: Yes
    When they set up facetime, they either used an apple ID, or (for iphone only) their phone number.  You call using one of them.  An apple id linked email address in my opinion is simpler, as you don't need to worry about country codes and the like.  (I have never tried to facetime anyone out of the country, so I will admit I am not sure what you do about country codes.)
    These articles are a little dated, but should help you set up your or your friends facetime if you need to.

  • HT1657 I just rented an HD movie, but it's taking too long to download and I would now prefer to download the regular version. Is there a way to change the quality without paying agin?

    I just rented an HD movie, but it's taking too long to download and I would now prefer to download the regular version. Is there a way to change the quality without paying agin?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately you cannot re-download rentals, allow it to finish and enjoy it and consider the situation for further rentals.
    The first thing to check would be your internet download speed, you can do this at www.speedtest.net.
    1080p HD movies require a recommended speed of 8 Mbps, 720p HD movies require a recommended speed of 6 Mbps, while SD movies require a recommended speed of 2.5 Mbps.

  • I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external drive.  I change the kind to "original" but when I view the video from the external drive once exported, the sound and picture are distorted.

    I am having trouble keeping the quality of my video when exporting to my external hard drive.  I have tried to export from iphoto with changing kind to "original" but when I open the video from the external drive the quality is effected.  I have also tried copying the video to my desktop and then dragging and dropping onto the drive...same problem. Any suggestions?  I would like to save everything to my external drive so that I can delete all of iphoto library and then reimport to correct a few things.

    The file sizes are identical.  In the finder I did a search for all .mov files.  Then when they came up, I went through them and named each one so that they would be easier to find.  I am a new mac user and am used to windows.  I realized later that I should not have done this....with a mac files should be named within iphoto app...not finder....When I went to open the videos in iphoto, it wouldn't allow me.  I had to go into finder, copy to desktop and reimport into iphoto.  Then the videos worked again.  However, I had the problem with the poor video quality when copied to external drive before that.  Actually the first problem I had was when I copied to ext drive...videos were copying as an image...so I learned that you have to change "kind" to original before exporting....then that problem was solved...now they are videos, not images but not of a great quality.  Skips, sound and images are not in sync...etc...

  • How do I decrease the file size of my After Effects video without losing the quality?

    I made a video that was 7 minutes and 11 seconds long for my brothers wedding. The quality is really good but the file size is 1.52 GB and I would rather have that be in the megabytes so that I can send it to family members. It does not have to be so low that I can send it in an email but just not so big to where I can't burn it to a disc or place on a flash drive. I realize that I have not provided much information but I don't know what you will need to help me with this problem. If you would please tell me what information you need below then I will happily provide it for you.

  • What are the best instagram video settings using Compressor 4?  The outputs I have created look clean HD in camera roll.  When I view video in instagram preview it looks great, but then when i post it the quality gets blurry. Any advice?

    I have read that you should resize the frame to 640 by 640 or 1000 x 1000, and have tried both.  I shot the footage on canon 70d using 720p60fps, and edited the footage with iMovie.  Its been frustrating to see the finished product look great on iPhone, iPad, or mac but once i post the video- the quality gets blurry when you focus on the faces that are in focus.  My footage is basketball action shots from a high school game.  Any advice would be huge, I been looking for an answer to this for a month. 

    Simple export a ProRes 422 file, upload that by itself.  Facebook, Vimeo, YoutTube, etc, all compress the video themselves.  So don't compress it first, just upload it and let them do their own compression.

  • I am using iPhone 4 from the last one year and went dead and got it replaced by paying Rs.12500/- to Nyasa Sion Koliwada Mumbai Service Provider but now again after 38days the problem has started, what do i do? Is this is the quality & service we boost?

    I am using iPhone 4 from the last one year and went dead and got it replaced by paying Rs.12500/- to Nyasa Sion Koliwada Mumbai Service Provider but now again after 38days the problem has started, what do i do? Is this is the quality & service we boost? On visiting the store we get only one reply you may write to Apple directely. we have the similar kind of problem with iPad which is being used by my wife Mr.Neelam Vij and paid Rs.16000/- to get it replaced within a year & 6months use. so in totality we have paid Rs.28500/- + Rs. 3000/- diagnostic charges.
    1. iPhone 4 , 32 GB Black with Sr. No. 88******A4T
    2. iPad 2, 16GB White with Sr. No.DL*******KPH
    Moreover, we have no information to contact whom. even the replace set has a warranty of only three month which further confirm that Apple itself is not confident wheather product will last after replacement for more then three month. Such kind of happening do not encourage anyone to recomend this product to anyone. Would appriciate a faster response to our problem if someone from Apple is going to read this email.
    Thanks & Regards

    thank you

    It's the level of compression. Lower number, more aggressive compression, more visual artifacts.
    Aside from that you should never use jpeg as a working format. The compression is destructive and cumulative, and the file deteriorates every time you resave it.
    Use TIFF or PSD, and if you need jpeg save out a copy as a single final step.

  • Disappointed in the quality of my Replacement

    I love my Kin TWOm & I feel like its a really nice phone but does have bugs. Well anyways my current phone was defective & had a few issues so I sent in for a replacement & got the replacement within 2 days. Here is my complaint so maybe verizon will see this. Ive already called about the issue but I feel like I wanted to make it public
    I got a Brand new Kin TWOm as part of my upgrade & it needed to be replaced. Here is my problem. When you send out a replacement at least make sure its the same quality as a new phone. I know its a replacement but **bleep** the Quality of the replacement KIN you sent me was horrible
    the things that irritated me
    1. The phone was absolutely filthy. Dirt in the screws in the back where the battery goes & just dirt really all over the phone
    2. In the front of the phone below the touch screen it looked like some once had some sort of sticker there & was peeled off. It took forever to get the sticker glue off the phone without scratching it.
    It took around 30 minutes to clean the phone  but once cleaned it really does look brand new. Overall satisfied that I got a new phone but not happy with the quality that it came in. A customer should never have to take time to clean a phone that is supossed to be replaced.

    I can honestly tell you that #5 & $9 on this phone was a huge failure. Who ever sent this phone out must have been completely blind because this phone was filthy & I wish I would of taken pictures of its condition. I am disappointed still on the quality the phone came in. Even now that I have cleaned this phone to pretty much spotless I should have just returned it. Its sad to think that I ordered a Brand new phone & I am stuck with a phone that came in a filthy condition & God knows how long this phone was abused for.
    1. The phone is power cycled up to nine times.
    2. Receives at least two manual functional tests.
    3. Electronically function-tested four times.
    4. The phone is checked for/cleared of any possible customer information at least twice, as well as passes numerous other quality checks.
    5. Visual Cosmetic Inspection
    6. Functional Inspection
    7. Computerized Radio Frequency Testing
    8. Functional Repair and Reconditioning
    9. Cosmetic Repair and Reconditioning
    10. Computerized Software Updates
    11. Computerized Customer Information Check and Clear

  • What actions should be taken while working with  the quality system

    Hi all,
    The development phase has been completed, I would like to know what are the steps we need to follow when we are working with  the quality system.
    I have some doubts regarding this could any one give the inputs please.
    1. Where should we create any Roles and Authorizations.Dev/QA/Prd
    2. Where should we  craete process Chains. Dev/QA/Prd.
    3. Can I transport the queries without using  Bex transport. What will happen If i dont use the Bex transport.
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards
    Kumar

    Hi Kumar,
    your BW quality system will be connected to your R/3 Production system from where you'll extract the real time data and do testing which includes estimation of downtime in case of filling up of the set up tables and so on...
    the most general procedure is to create the Roles and Authorizations in teh development system and then transport it across to production through your quality system...
    Process chains you afford to create it directly in your production system itself... that's no big deal...
    And of course, you'll have to transport the queries only using the BEx transport.. there's no other go for this as its the standard procedure given by SAP...
    Hope it helps..
    Regards
