Yes, more render/compression settings issues

I just got FCE, and have had the same rendering issues as everyone else. I've scanned through the topics for awhile looking for solutions, but I'm having trouble finding something that works properly on every end.
I'm currently using video recorded through Photobooth using my built in isight camera, and I have MPEG Streamclip downloaded to export to whatever format I need. Now I just need to find the correct Easy Setup settings along with a matching format from Streamclip.
What do you need to know in order to help me?
Thanks in advance for the help, I know you've all dealt with this a lot.

Open the clip the iSight camera captures in the QuickTime player and report on exactly what it says in Movie Info about the material. With that information we can tell you what format is best to convert it to in Streamclip and what settings to use in FCE. Remember after you change the FCE the settings you have to make a new sequence. The existing sequence does not change format, only new sequences, subsequent to the change, will have the new settings.

Render Compression Issue

I'm editing footage from a Canon 60D, 1080p, and have been editing it at full quality, as it has been functioning quite well thus far. The issue is when I render footage and then export it. While rendering, a loss in quality occurs. Through render compression, the image loses color information and degrades in overall quality. I've checked by render compression settings, which point to my sequence settings. I've included an image of my sequence settings in this post. Any advice? I need to do some color work and can't have the image quality degraded as a result of rendering, or anything else for that matter.

You kind of have it backwards - H.264 is the very compressed format, Pro Res is the high quality codec.
The file size is growing because H.264 is highly, highly compressed video. H.264 is designed for image acquisition and delivery, but not editing or post production. When you transcode to ProRes, your are 'unpacking" the video that has been compressed (jammed) together as tightly as possible into blocks of frames - into distinct frames with a much greater storage of data per frame. This is why many high end cameras, and many DSLR shooters record on devices that use the ProRes codec - it bypasses the tremendous compression of H.264.
ProRes is a much better codec than H.264, which is why once your material is in ProRes, it will maintain quality as you move through editing and color correction, delivering an excellent quality master file that you can then compress into any delivery codecs you need.

No Preview Box in "Standard Video Compression Settings"

Hi:
I'm taking a class in Photoshop CS5. Our textbook is Adobe Photoshop CS5 Classroom in A Book and we've reached Lesson 12 Working with 3D Images. At the end of the chapter we made a 3 second Quicktime (H.264 Compression) movie. According to the book, after choosing Quicktime Export in the Render Video diolog box, it should open a Movie Settings diolog box which, after choosing Videe Settings button, opens the Standard Video Compression Settings box. In the lower right of that box there should be a Preview window showing the effect of the compression on a frame of the animation. For me the preview window is blank even though I can compress the file. I've moved the animation's timeline current time indicator to the beginning, middle, and end of the animation but to no effect.
I'm rumming a Macbook 2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of SDRAM. The computer does support OpenGL which appears to be chosen in the 3D section of Photoshop's preferences.
Thanks for any suggestions.

Don't worry about file size at this point; the determining factor is program length. A single layer 4.7GB DVD will hold about two hours of video. The compression is handled in the DVD authoring application.
From FCE, just export to QuickTime Movie (do not use QT Conversion). If you'll burn the DVD on the same computer, make sure the "self-contained" box is unchecked for a much quicker export.

Trying to import .avi file to adjust the compression settings to xvid

I'm trying to import a .avi file in order to adjust the compression settings to XVID and keep getting an error message

ANd that error message is..? What file? What system? What version of AE? You need to be a lot more specific. That said, AE doesn't really deal with Xvid, DivX and similar garbage, so you might as well look for other tools in the first place.

Plug in Manager released today doesn't fix print settings issue

The download page says it improves reliability in Aperture and other apps. But it didn't fix the print settings issue in Aperture. I sent feedback on the problem. Try to hit the print settings button after hitting command P. If you have Aperture 2 and the latest security update the settings won't come up. Look at the top of the list for the Plug In Manager update.

Hopefully an update fixes this. I have had this problem for a long time, tried many different fixes, no luck. Horizontal scrolling works in IE9 however.

Extracting information about image compression settings

Hi,
Is there any way using SDK 7.0.5 to determine what image compression settings were used for color, grayscale, and monochrome images for a given pdf file?
Also, is it possible to determine which color management policy was used?
Thanks,
Daniel Sheiner

Okay, Distiller was a bad example. The same range of settings are available for exporting PDFs from Word. What if someone converted a Word document to a PDF?
Supposing some or most of the information I'm looking for is lost, how much can I infer? For example, if a given PDEImage has the PDEColorSpace DeviceRGB or CalRGB, that at least tells me the user didn't select Color Management Policies -> Convert All Colors to CMYK. It would actually be tremendously helpful if you could tell me which other ColorSpace names, if any, would indicate the user didn't select Convert All Colors to CMYK.
It would also be quite helpful to know if there is some indirect way to determine that a given color or grayscale PDEImage has not been compressed using ZIP, or that a monochrome PDEImage has not been compressed using CCITT Group 4.
Thanks!

"Uncompressed 10-bit" vs. "None" Compression settings

Hello,
I work at a FX/finishing/color grading facility that provides the final masters for commercials seen on television.
I am trying to gain some insight on the difference between some compression settings, so that I can educate a client on the proper file to provide us.
We have been provided Quicktime files with an "Uncompressed 10-bit NTSC" tag attached to it, though they always come with an FCP wrapper that requires a special codec for us to access the files. They are usually relatively smaller files, which also has us suspecting that they are actually compressed.
We would prefer files with a universal Quicktime codec, such as exporting it with "None" as done in the Quicktime conversion in FCP. Problem being, these files get so huge and unmanageable even when derived from low-end acquisition formats.
A 5 second clip exported with "Uncompressed 10 bit" comes to are 115megs, while "None" is at 457 megs.
Can someone explain to me the differences between these codecs and what causes the vast difference in file sizes?

La diferencia en clara, tú tienes un file uncompressed y otro sin none compresion, paresen igula pero no es así, ambos te dicen sin compresion, pero el none comprsesion es puro, es el file en crudo por esa razon pesa mucho mas, tú tiens que ver que deseas porque ambos se ven bien el resultado en ambos en optimo, ecepto cuando los tienes en FCP y los exportas como DV, ahí se ven la diferencia pues la compresion a DV siempre baja un poco la calidad del producto final.
El file "none" pesa más del doble que el "uncompressed-8bits"
mi recomendacion es depende de lo qué quieres y que capacidad de tu HD estas dispusto a ocupar y par qué trabajo usarlo? será el formato que escojas pero ambos son muy buenos..
pd:puedes contestar en ingles si deseas.. thanks

Youtube & Vimeo Compression Settings.

Hello i am using Compressor 4.1.3 and im trying to figure out the guidelines for youtube compression. There are many different variables and alot of suggestions from other users that are just guessing at what box to check.
As we all know the default compression settings in compressor 4.1 for youtube and vimeo are not correct.
Vimeo makes it really easy by posting it here:
https://vimeo.com/help/faq/uploading-to-vimeo/compression-tutorials#compressor-4 11
Step by step - very easy.

Very general settings - Non specific to compressor
Does anybody have the bottom line on Compressor 4.1 youtube compression settings?

The Picture on top is the default vimeo setting in compressor. The bottom is the settings that Vimeo provides. I have tried the default settings and get warnings when i upload to vimeo. Im thinking this must be the same for youtube since i get warnings when i upload a video compressed with the default settings. I made my own custom settings based off of what youtube suggests. I dont get warnings but im guessing at some of the settings. Im gust looking for an official guide if it exists.

I am unable to access mail folders on my mac from my iPad: is this s settings issue?

I keep a selected number of incoming e-mails in subject specific folders on my Mac for future reference. I am able to access all incoming e-mails on both my Mac and my iPad but these mail folders only on my Mac. If this is a settings issue, can anyone advise me how to correct the issue?

If you are using a POP type email account, no, those folders would not transfer over. They only exist on your Mac.
If you are using an IMAP type account, it is still possible you created the folders locally on the Mac rather than on the server. You may need to recreate them and then move emails over to the new folders.

I purchased an i-pad 2 and have about 330 apps. I bought the cheaper (16GB). I now cannot download or update apps "There is not enough available storage" I purchased more storage in settings, but still cannot update or download.

I purchased an i-pad 2 (16GB) and have about 330 apps. I cannot download or even update my apps (get the message there is not enough storage available to download). I purchased more storage through settings, but still nothing. Help?

You cannot purchase more storage on the iPad, you purchased more storage on iCloud.
How much space is left on your iPad?

Timelapse Compression Settings FCE

I have RAW images and work on an Adobe Bridge/LR Timelapse/Adobe After Effects workflow.I've recently had the trouble with quality loss in FCE. I don't have FCP (so no ProRES compression). What sequence presets,compression settings should I use for a timelapse for online streaming?

for usage with iDVD, no 'Conversion' needed, the dvd-authoring app will convert anyhow. 'Export QT movie' should do it. too much 'intermediates' doesn't add any value in DVD-making.
'jumping' usually indicates a) too high burn speed, b) 'dirty' player- or burner-head, c) 'wrong' brand of dvd-r (Verbatim has an excellent track-record here), don't use no-names.

Best QuickTime Audio/Video Compression Settings?

Hello there,
Before inserting an iMovie to an iDVD project, I must compress it in QuickTime as it won't fit if "shared" as full-quality.
What Audio and Video compression settings will provide, preserve, or enhance the audio/video content? I have the latest version of QuickTime Pro and am pretty savy with it.
Thank you very much for any feedback you may provide.
Jacobo
