Tips for Users with Audio Issues in MPEG Files

I have seen a lot of users expressing issues with getting audio to export correctly in their videos, and I thought I would share what's worked for me.
Whenever I'm converting MPEG videos, I have found it useful to open the video with an audio editor (I use GoldWave) and export the audio as a WAVE file. I can then open that WAVE file in QuickTime, copy it to the clipboard, and choose the "Add to Movie" option in the player with the video. Once that's done I'm able to export the video along with the audio.
For DVD's with Dolby Digital audio, I've had success with DVD2AVI. Using that program I can decode the Dolby Digital audio to a WAVE file and use the same method of opening it in QuickTime and choosing the "Add to Movie" option. This has proven invaluable for transferring videos captured with my DVD recorder.
Basically, my solution has always been to extract the audio as a separate WAVE file and adding it to the video using the "Add to Movie" option.

I have sensory issues involving bright lights, flashing lights, loud noises, high-pitched noises, proprioception, and some other stuff. I don't have colorblindness.
I also have a fix to use bigger font sizes to reduce eyestrain. I tried using zoom, but too many websites broke with zoom, it kept reverting, etc. If nosquint does zoom better than the default, nosquint might help with that.
But... I still have sensory issues involving bright lights, flashing lights, loud noises, high-pitched noises, and a lot of other stuff everywhere and online, and I still need fixes ...and I also need people to stop beating me to the ground, but that's beyond Firefox.

What are useful tools for users with sensory issues?

I have multiple sensory issues, and bright lights, flashing lights, loud noises, high-pitched noises, etc. can be very painful and sometimes incapacitating for me. I worry backup beepers will get me killed.
A lot of websites *including this support website* use flashing animation, noise, etc., triggered automatically, using autoplay, or triggered by trying to scroll past.
I have separate tools to disable autoplay, to disable animated gifs, etc. I can't understand why (a) Firefox enables these misfeatures and (b) Firefox doesn't include one built-in tool to disable these.

How to Control authorization for users with certain status for level 2 WBS Element

Dear All,
Is there any standard way or enhancement available to control authorization for users with certain status for WBS Element i.e. for example
Pre-requisite:
There is only 2 level of project i.e.
Lev_ WBSE_______Description
1___ 7-14.E_______summay outage controller
2___ 7-14.E.2310__ Plant/unit # 2310
2___ 7-14.E.2310__ Plant/unit # 2220
Project Controller (authorization role assigned "Z_PS_OP7_OTGCON_C") have all project level authorization
Plant/Unit Controller (authorization role assigned "Z_PS_OP7_PLNTOTG_C_2310") have only level 2 authorization with enhancement that we did in system by Z table.
User ID_ Plant #
123345_ 2310
122455_ 2220
Issue:
After System Status released and User Status approved the WBS basic date for Plant/Units should be restricted from updating/changing by Plant/Unit Controller level and only project controller should have this authority.
Solution required:
Can any one tell how to control this scenario either by standard or enhancement available to control authorization

Sun Convergence for user with disabled calendar service

I have Communication Suite 7 installed with the "Sun Convergence" web interface.
I create a test user with a disabled calendar service (service package platinum).
The user test logged in in Sun Convergence web interface and I'm surprised,
that the calendar for him is available.
How can I disable the calendar view in Sun Convergence for user with disabled calendar service?
Thank you.

I'm getting the expected result with a service package for mail and calendar,
e.g. mercury, and setting the status of calendar service to inactive or disabled.The behaviour you are seeing is both "expected" (i.e. as per the current Convergence design) and "unexpected" (i.e. doesn't make sense from a DA service provisioning perspective). It is a real "can-o-worms".
The problem stems back to the "local.autoprovision" functionality provided at the Calendar Server end (enabled by default):
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-4654/acajh?l=En&a=view
"The first time a user logs in, the user's LDAP entry in updated to add calendar service, and a default calendar is created. The user entry must already exist in the LDAP directory. If it does not, an error is returned."
So even if the calendar service has not been granted at the Delegated Administrator end, the calendar server will "helpfully" add the required objectclasses/attributes when a client (such as Convergence) attempts to login as that user.
This means Convergence cannot automatically assume a user is not able to access the Calendar service based on the users current objectclass/attribute settings.
This leads to an existing bug for Convergence:
Bug#6871400 - "Mail only user is able to access the calendar service"
I've also created a new Change Request for Calendar Server:
RFE#6898717 - "local.autoprovision should be disabled by default"
Please raise this issue with Sun support (log a support request) if you believe the current behaviour is confusing/needs changing (i.e. fix the bug/RFE above).

Shane.

JK Adobe TV - Top 5 Tips for Working with Vectors in CC

Julieanne Kost has just blogged about her Adobe TV video on working with shapes and paths in Photoshop CC. It's actually not that new to Adobe TV, and has already had a lot of views, but we get a lot of questions here on the subject with CC, and there are some nice little tips in it. I certainly learned a couple of things. :-)

My apologies, but I really had no interest in a member's "answer", especially one that is so unhelpful. Assuming that you were responding to me (we are the only two commenter's at this point), I would not be inclined to read the Creative Cloud offers since this is something that I am not interested in. I bought the product the first day of offer, I did not rent it....just like I have in all the years past.

How to make form field read only for users with certain permissions

We need to make two form fields read only for users with certain permissions. Kindly guide me on how to do this in Infopath. I searched and there is an option to disable to the column, but no option to select user permissions.
Please give your suggestion on this.
thanks.

Hi,
See the link below:
http://info.akgroup.com/blog-0/bid/69277/InfoPath-Restrict-visibility-to-users-in-a-SharePoint-Group
Here you can add the fomatting action on the field to disable the field if those users belong to certain Sharepoint group (does not matter the permission levels though). Hope it helps.

Best practices/tips for users who are connected to A LOT of mailboxes?

I have a user or two who seem to be connected to _everyone's_ mailbox. This person is in recruiting, so access to other people's calendars is necessary
for scheduling.
Problem is, she faces multiple Outlook slow downs and lock ups on a daily basis. She recently showed me a problem where calendars that she typically has
access to now prompt her to "ask them to share their calendar" messages (reboots will fix this problem, for the most part).
Taken her on and off cached Exchange mode. We have disabled the "Download shared folders" setting, and that helped some, but issues still persist.
She is typically the only one with constant problems (her and one other person that is in a similar situation).
More info: we allow Reviewer permissions for everyone's Calendar for the "Default" entry. So, she does not have full access to any one's mailbox.
She's just viewing everyone as a shared calendar.
Hoping there's someone out there with similar issues that have successfully tackled this problem!
Running on-prem Exchange 2013 with three member DAG.
Thanks in advance.

She can use the scheduling assistant to check availability, there is no need to have other people calendars added. Remove all those calendars, compact the data file, and educate her on how to properly use Outlook. Here's a reference article:

Tips for working with USB floppy drives

I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on working with USB floppy drives in Archlinux.
One thing I've noticed is that trying to use mkfs.msdos on my USB floppy drive directly doesn't seem to result in a usable disk (it's mountable, but reports that I don't have enough space available to copy files), but if I use the command on an image file the same size as a floppy disk and then use dd to copy the blank image to my USB drive I get a disk that's perfectly usable. Anybody know what the deal is with that or how I might be able to successfully format a disk in fewer steps (other than keeping the blank images around and just using dd to format the floppies, haha)?
Also, I'd like to hear any other tips or tricks any of you have for working with USB floppy drives. They just seem so much more usable under Windows as opposed to Linux, and that disappoints me a little.

jmetal88 wrote:Okay, thanks guys. I haven't figured out the issue yet, but you're helping me narrow it down. I decided to run a df -h command after each try of formatting the disk this time. I tried the low-level ufiformat command followed by a mkfs.msdos on the device, using a 720k disk, and df -h showed 700k free on the file system. It's just not making the file system large enough (I believe the file I was trying to copy over was 710k or so). When I run mkfs.msdos on a 720k disk image and then dd the image over to the drive, df -h shows 713k free after mounting the drive. Any idea why mkfs.msdos isn't filling out the full 720k on the disk itself, but is on the image?
I would assume this happens because (as far as I can tell from skimming through the source over the course of a few minutes) mkfs.fat only applies floppy size heuristics to fd and lo devices -- your USB floppy drive is treated as a hard drive, and that leads to less-than-ideal default parameters. Run
fsck.fat -v
on the more spacious filesystem to figure out what options need to be set when you attempt formatting an actual disk. Or just make things easier by keeping newly-formatted blank disk images on hand so that dd and (maybe) ufiformat are all you need to worry about.

Weblogic patch for the "Authentication for user wlsadmin denied" issue

Hi Everyone,
When I try to login to the weblogic console using the weblogic user id and password, I got below issue in the production server..Sometime back I saw a thread that Oracle has provided a patch for this issue. If any of you is aware of it then could you please provide us the patch file and its location please. This is quite a bit urgent. Awaiting for your response. Thanks in advance.

I need to communicate to onsite members about the patch details etc.
Edited by: user11290902 on May 13, 2011 1:27 AM

Faisal, Thank you for your response. Here the weblogic console id & password are known to few people so the guess you are making might be correct. Could anyone might have tried with incorrect credentials couple of times before we face this issue, I am not sure though. The moment we provide the credentials and upon click on Log In button we are getting j_security_check.
http://asdo0002:9683/console/j_security_check
Authentication Denied.
The username or password has been refused by WebLogic Server. Please try again.
Any information about the work--arounds or patches from weblogic would be helpful to me... Thanks a lot.

Reseeding cache for users with role based security

I have role based security and trying to set up cache by purging all cache and later seeding cache by query. The query would be different for different users. What is the best way to purge all cache and reseed cache for administrator as well as all users. The EPT would purge cache based on updated tables. But how do I next go about reseeding cache for better performance to all the users. Thanks.

I have created an ibot with the following:
General - Normal Priority, Personalized (recipient's data visibility)
Conditional Request - example_report
Schedule - some schedule
Recipients - Me(administrator) and User1
Destinations - Oracle BI Server cache
when the ibot runs 2 cache entries are created (for the 2 recipients).
I have the report (example_report) on the dashboard (1 dashboard, 1 page, 1 report).
After the ibot runs:
When the administrator logs in first, there is a cache hit on the report. Followed by when the User1 logs in there is NO cache hit.
On the other hand when the User1 logs in first, there is a cache hit on the report. Followed by when the administrator logs in there is no cache hit. The query log creates a Query issued to the database instead of cache hit on query.
The User1 has a data level security.
Please let me know where was I making an error in setting the ibot and how to get the cache seeding work for the different users with different role based security.
Thanks for your inputs.

Best quality conversion for DVD with audio?

This has to be easier than it seems. I have an hour long video I want to compress with the best resolution for DVD, but Compressor help tells me I "must convert the video into MPEG-2 (SD and HD projects)," but this is video only.
I just want to compress this 60GB video losing as little quality as possible and throw it on a DVD with audio, but I just can't make sense of Compressor to find the best way to do this.
Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the response. I did try this, save for the Create DVD Job Action, but it just creates one audio and one video file. I'm trying the Create DVD job action now, so hopefully that will work.
Here is a screenshot of my batch. Does this look correct?
Thanks again.

Question for those with memory issues on k8n neo plat

I have been having issues with my memory on the k8n neo platinum board since i built the system last month and i just recently discovered a fact I had overlooked.
I Have discovered that if i test the system while it is cool (having sat turned off overnight for example), then memtest will pass the ram just fine and the system will be stable for a short period of time, generally longer if no intensive applications are used, ie. doom3 vs. websurfing).
This system, once it heats up ( seems mostly to be the nvidia 3 nb that needs to be "hot"- that is, a probe placed in contact with the module reaches about 58+ degrees c) then the system becomes unstable and memtest, if used, fails.
Prime95, if used on it when its cool, will usually take about an hour or so to fail, but if its used on the system when its been running a bit ( temps from nb at 58c+ and memory module hot to the touch) then it fails after about 20-30 seconds.
I have placed an active hs on the nb in an attempt to correct this, but temps still remain high with failures occuring.
I have spent the better part of three days testing the sytem this way and the above facts have held true in all these tests.
I have tested at stock ratings ( not using "auto" in bios, but using "approved ratings" of 10 x 200 for fsb and timings of 2-3-3-7 for my ram at 1:1 (which is recommended as well) since i am testing for base stability at this point;Voltages have been left at auto settings, however.
I was wondering if anyone else with memory issues could try this out and post if this seems to be the case for you as well.
Perhaps the memory issues on these boards are directly related to a problem with the nvidia 3 chipset running too hot?
Does anyone have a memory issue with these boards who is using water cooling on the NB ?
Lack of issues from people using 'problem" memory, but having no failures with water cooled nb's would support my assumption.

Yes i did mean chipset.
I am using a stock hs/fan from amd, which seems to run a tad hot but, considering that I wont overclock until I can get board stable, its not an issue. (runs 35-40 idle and up to 72 intensive). I need the warranty more then the extra mhz at present.
I removed the stock heatsink from the nvidia chipset and bought a generic chipset cooler (green, very little in the way of fins and seems to be aluminum) with a small fan.
I used a generic silver paste from Compusa to adhere both the cpu hs and the chipset.
I didnt lap either hs, just installed each as per instructions on artic silvers website (figured it had to go on the same way even generic).
I also bought a kingwin thermal center which i ran probes from to the cpu, case, and nb chipset.
I am not using it to adjust fans so those arent connected - its just a reference temp I can see at a glance, esp considering the funky bios reading this boards been known to give.
I assume from these responces that even a nvidia 3 250 chipset shouldnt get as hot as mine?
I asked about that from the retailer i bought this from but he seemed to think it was "ok" at 50ish celcius, but then again he didnt look too confident when he said it, lol.
Idle right now reads on Corecenter at 28 celcius for cpu and 33 celcius for the chipset, although, I have readings of 37 c and 43 c from the kingwin thermal center, which i believe to be more accurate.
My voltage reads at 11.67 for the 12v line at idle right now.
The psu i got is stick from the xblade case i bought in store. (http://www.xoxide.com/xblade2.html)
I have a dvd burner, cd drive, and two maxtor ide hd's attached to the system;The only card is the agp.
Is there a way to check and see if the cpu ispower starved? software monitor or even an external probe perhaps?
I havent put a probe on it, but the ram came in its own heatspreader, which gets very hot to the touch as well.
What temps should I be looking for on these items?

A suggestion for those with battery issues:

When I first got my iPhone, I had the same battery issues many people here are talking about, in fact I posted about it myself. Its fixed. Very fixed, and Im very happy with my battery life. Here is what I did.
First, do not charge it using your USB connection. At least not always. Why? I dont know. I did the first few days, and couldnt get a full charge even tho system wasnt going to sleep. I started using the wall charger, and got longer battery life, but still not great. One night, I forwarded the phone to my home phone in case I got a call, and shut the phone down completely, and put it on charge. In the morning, I woke up to a 100% charged, fully glowing battery icon. The battery lasted all day with no issues. Every night after that, I just charged it on the wall charger, but did NOT shut it down to see what happened. I am still waking up every morning to a 100% fully charged battery. The battery life seems to get better daily now.
Today, I ran wifi for about 5 hours because I forgot to shut it off. This was after going to the pool and listening to the iPod on the phone for about 2 hours. And using the phone normally throughout the day, checking mail, sms, etc. Really a full day of work, and my battery is still over 50% full. I purposely didnt connect it to anything during the day for a recharge, not the USB or wall charger.
Good luck, hope this helps. Id be interested to know if it does.

Here's my non-scientific experiment.
After surprising battery drain for the first 10 days or so with not much usage, I completely drained the battery yesterday until the phone shut off.
I plugged into AC charge and was worried when it didn't seem to even begin charging.
I plugged into USB, assuming it needed to charge enough to at least complete a sync.
I left it on USB until about 5-10% charge, then switched it to AC. At about 50% I needed to use it, so I did but sparingly, and put it back on charge, all the while keeping Mail on manual and WiFi off.
I took it off once more to get it home from the office, then plugged into AC.
I left that charging overnight.
I never actually got the "glow", but did get the plug icon showing full charge in the status bar.
After about 2 1/2 hours this morning, the status has not moved off of 100% (but with little usage as before).
This is definitely an improvement already though. Hope this helps.

Mac Pro RAID block size recommendations for working with audio in Logic Pro

I have recently ordered a Mac Pro and plan to do a RAID configuration across 3 HDD's
The RAID type i am going to do is a RAID 0 striped.
The computer is going to be used primarily for audio post production and working with 20+ 24-Bit audio files at any one time within a Logic project.
I want to know what is the best block size i should use when configuring the RAID.
I understand that using a higher block size is best for working with large files but do i need to do this in my case or will the default 32k block size be enough?
Thanks in advance

Use 64k. Things like databases like having 32k blocks because of all the small files. Audio files are pretty small even at 24-bit 192KHz. Go to 128k if all you are doing is streaming and no samples. But 20+ 24-bit is really not too large anyway considering most modern HDD's can stream 100MB/s off one spindle. You'll probably be fine regardless of the block size you choose. But most audio pro's choose 64k.
