Anybody know of an Adobe Flash learning session that's live.. - 12 years agoI've been fighting this for years but I can't any longer. Does someone know of any live class for Adobe Flash? Thanks, A.F.by spaceman - Café LA Re: Tracks - 18 years agoDave .. You said it. STP along with all Apple loop packages including its #4 Symphony Orchestra loops are mainly "Head Banging" stuff, kinda like a shouting match. No soothing stuff suitable for behind narrations. I guess apple is listing to MTV to much.by spaceman - Soundtrack Pro Re: Tracks - 18 years agoThanks for the info.. I can't see how, unless you play instruments, you can compose with Soundtrack. It's just a bunch of repeating loops, no lead melodies or lead anything. How can it possibly create anything melodic? I can't evan get it to save something that was done with the editor that reflects changes done there. It saves all right but without the changes. I've looked although the manuaby spaceman - Soundtrack Pro Re: Tracks - 18 years agoSpeaking of compositions, Background Music for DVD's Post Edited (08-08-05 13:43)by spaceman - Soundtrack Pro Tracks - 18 years agoDoes anybody know where some free track may be found or some good inexpensive ones? Thanksby spaceman - Soundtrack Pro KeyNote To DVDSP4 - 18 years agoOk.. Heres a stumper .. I have jpg's that are made to a slide presention in Apples Keynote... Convered to a QT mov. Brought into FCP5 then Exported out useing QT conversions Annamation. That;s the codec I use for all DVD projects with not a single issue. NOW, I bring it into DVDSP4 (with chapter markers) and set up the dvd, no problems yet, plays just fine useing simulator. NOW the fun beginsby spaceman - DVD Studio Pro Re: TWO Tracks - 18 years agoI found another way to do it by creating another button, then take the original track and choose set asset and create track (set asset to track), the second choice in the drop down menu. Then I drag the movie over the element created in the graphical view and Wala, it thinks there's a second track which let you choose a second end jump for that track only. In my case it goes back to the main menby spaceman - DVD Studio Pro Simulator - 18 years agoCan the simulator fast foward so you don't have to wade through an entire track to see something twards the end?by spaceman - DVD Studio Pro TWO Tracks - 18 years agoOk.. I'm about to pull my hair out... What I want to do is; One video asset (track) loop, when button 1 is selected (I have no problem creating that useing "End Jump". Now here's where it gets nuts. Button 2, to select that same track and when finished playing instead of looping, return to the main menu (Menu 1).

Didn?t realize DD is actually A3. Thanksby spaceman - DVD Studio Pro Where is AC# in Compressor2? - 18 years agoCan not find AC3 codec in the new Compressor 2. Anyone open the secret for me? Want to go from FCP5 to Compressor2 to DVDSP4. Need m2v(video) and AC3(audio). Cant find the codec in compressor2. Thanksby spaceman - DVD Studio Pro Re: Help, Can't Build. "Bit Rate to High" msg.. - 18 years agoI will try that... But I wonder why I never had to do that with DVDSP 3? I always used m2v and aiff's. Never had at bitrate issue.by spaceman - DVD Studio Pro Help, Can't Build. "Bit Rate to High" msg.. - 18 years agoDVDSP 4. Can't complete a build. Keep getting message "Bit Rate To High". No matter how low I set both the min & max in SD & HD (under encoding in the pref's) I keep getting the error message. DVDSP 3 never had this problem with the same files. I tried it with just 1 track, a m2v and exactly matching aiff file, still errors. Anybody have any help.by spaceman - DVD Studio Pro Re: Raid, The Dilemma - 18 years agoAndreas, Thanks again ... this is a complicated issue for me. Knowing as much as I can leed's to better decisions. Why would you consider a Raid 1 (4 drives say) rather then keeping the drives as separate drives and just keep a back up on one drive, when that's full go to the 2nd, when that's full go to the 3rd and so on? what actually is the advantage of a Raid 1? am I missing something?by spaceman - Café LA Re: Raid, The Dilemma - 18 years agoAndreas, Thank you for the great explanations of the different Raids. Most helpful. Couple more issues that confuse me: Raid 1 (mirrored) .. backs up a Raid 0 (stripped)? I assume that the data now is in two places, The orig on the Raid 0 array and now on the Raid 1 array. So keeping data on the Raid 0 is now safer? correct? That being the case, what difference does it make ifby spaceman - Café LA Re: Raid, The Dilemma - 18 years agoHow do you set up a raid 5? Apples disc utility can't i believe. I looked at softraid and as good as I hear it is I dont know if it does 5 either. What I really don't like about SR is it looks a bit complicated to those with limited experience with raid technology and they have NO tech support even for 90 days. What they call tech support is email and make an appointment for a return call or rby spaceman - Café LA Re: 4.5 to 5.0 install - 18 years agoSteve, Don't have DWfor tiger justtheone befoe and I'm told notto use thatone. however I ran Onyx, didn't solve anything... I have a new thought, I have a 1.5 ter raid system installed which I think uses a Sonnet tempo-X eSata 4+4 card. I'm going to check if thereis a firmware update for Tigerfor that raid System.

I have a full 8gigs of ram and when the apple autherized dealer (who I've delt with for 15+ yrs) put in the new drive, I asked him to check the logic board, ram, video, etc just for the sake of checking, said all is well.

Downloaded all updates and after each one I repaired permissions (2.5 days of work). My system does not like tiger. The question is qoing back to the disk that has 10.3.9 and FCPS 4.5 on it, do I remove all components and Apps of 4.5 before intstalling FCPS 5?by spaceman - Café LA Re: 4.5 to 5.0 install - 18 years agoI have tried evrything including 1/2 a day with Apple. Applications won't quit, won't force quit, just watch the Beach ball turning for as long as you can stand it. The only, ONLY way to force quit an app. is to shut down the system with the button. I have Safge booted at least 50 times, rebuilt permissions at least 100 times and nothing cganges.

My next fick "THE RETURN OF THE BEACH BALL". So I am going to upgrade a second boot drive from 10.3.5 to 10.3.9 so I can install FCSudio on it. It has 4.5 now... The question is .. Can I install over 4.5 or must I remove all that pertains to 4.5 first. Thnak, A.F.by spaceman - Café LA Re: DVD to QT? - 18 years agoHey Guys, Thanks for all your help... "Handbrake" is a great program and did the trick as well as "ffmpegx". "Mpeg Streamclip" since getting the mac version works well also. I knew I came to the correct place for help, I guess I'll just have to start attending meetings again.
