ok…
so that’s the thing
i only brought over the first vts_1_vob file…
and so far my dvd is working great without the other 3 vts-vob’s

that’s why i was confused…
when i brought over all 4 vob files into roxio toast it said i had over 15 gb’s of information…which can’t be true because i ripped the files from a 4 gb dvd.

in itunes you have to go to prefrences
change import to mp3
than go back to the song
if you right click or option click
you should get an option to convert to mp3…
this works the other way as well…

sorry…
also i’m using
a g-5 dual 1.8 with 3 gigs or ram

[Arty Gold]

thanks…
yeah it’s weird…
it just stops then picks back up…
then the video plays great…but with no audio…

i’ll try a few more times..
the thing that stinks is i can’t see if it works unless i sit there an watch it thru…

and it’s like an hour an a half in…
if i play it some where in the middle…it’ll play fine

it’s a query

[Arty Gold]

that happens to me sometimes…

it’s usually one of two things…
1) The harddrive that i am using doesn’t have enough space left…make sure that you check that and change it under system settings…

or

2) somewhere on your time line there’s something not rendered.
also try to do an audio mixdown before you export

thank you charles that helps e-men-sly !

sorry i guess i was just wondering before i got started

i have one minute interviews….
a graphic open and a graphic close….

shot on mini dv

maybe the correct question would be what is a file size unrealistically too big ?

is 2mb too big for download ?

My MAC CRASHED!!! And I had to put new version of Tiger on my machine. But now I can no longer double click on a file and have it open in Photoshp or Illustrator or anything else. When I double click it just opens the application but wont open the file itself! How do i get this functionality back?

[Arty Gold]

thanks very much
i already have made much progress…

although not a compression whiz…

my best bet has been to just keep playing with the numbers and get them to where i need them…

you’ve been very helpful

[Arty Gold]

thanks…

the thing that really throws me off…is in squeeze it still allows you to choose all the options even though with the standard version of f4m you can’t do a 2-pass…

but if you choose any of those options (even by accident) it locks up the program…

sigh

thanks anyway
