4 questions about the the top boxes - SD box and Home media DVR

Hello. I am going to be getting Fios soon and I have some questions about the boxes. I will be getting the Home Media DVR and 4 SD boxes.
1) Do these boxes have timers on them to set so the box can turn off at a certain time?
2) Do these boxes have parental control and if so is it good enough to block things that I do not want my child to see?
3) How many people can access the home media dvr at the same time to watch already recorded programs
4) If the Home Media DVR is in the family room can a record be started from the bedroom over the SD set top box (even an hd show)?
Thanks for any help.

I have been using two Standard Set Top Boxes for about a year. I have Parental Controls on and all channels locked. When I want to watch a channel, I tune to that channel, note the LOCKED message, which tells me to press the OK button to enter ther Parental Controls PIN and unlock the channel for viewing.
This has worked flawlessliy for the last year -- ON THE Standard STB's.
I just ordered the Home Media DVR STB to replace one of my Standardt STB..
On the Home Media DVR:
I can set the Parentals Control PIN and lock the channels, in the exact same way I did o nthe Standard STB's. However, when tuen to ANY channel, I still ge the LOCKED message and instructions to press OK to unlock the channel -- BUT no matter how I press the OK button, the Enter your Parental Conlrols PIN dialog box willl NOT open. Nothing happens -- you CAN NOT view any channel.
Again, it is the EXACT setup as for the Standard STB, but the OK button will NOT unlock any of the channels.
If you unlock all channels and LOCK the Ratings, the same problem recurs: OK buitton will never open the "enter your PIN" dialog box.
I have received two replacement boxes and have spent hours on the phone with some very capable and helpful Techs -- no luck.
Has anyone else had the same problem? Here's how to test your Home Media DVR:
1. Menu-Settings-Parental Controls.
2. You will be prompted to CREATE youre Parental Controls PIN
3. Enter you PIN twice.
4. Use the > button to scroll to Enable On/Off and set it on.
5. scroll down to Control Channels
6. Press > button to See Locked Channels
7. Scroll down to Add/Remove Channels
8. Scroll right to choose LOCK ALL
9. Press OK and then scroll to YES to lock all channels
10. Press EXIT to get out of settings.
11. All channels are now locked.
12. Go to any channel
13. A black screen will appear with a lock silhouette with the word LOCKED below, followed by instructions to Press OK to enter PIN and unlock this channel. (plus how to change locks...).
14.Press the OK button and, if it is working, you will see a dialog box at the bottom of the screen that is titled: UNLOCK, with the channel listed and the instructions to "Enter your PIN using your numeric pad on remote to naje this channel availabe for all users." THere's a PIN box, which shows asterisks for each number entered, with "Press Exit to Cancel" below.
15. On the Standard STB, it works exactly as described in steps 1 thru 14. On the Media Center DVR, it works up to step `13, but in 14, no matter how you press the OK button, the UNLOCK dialog box never pops us. The Remote STB light flashes on the remove and the REMOTE yellow light flashes on the DVR, but nothng happens.
If you have a Home Media DVR, can you please try this and see if it works?
Thanks,
John

My Displeasure with the Home Media DVR

Before I begin let me say that I love FIOS....it beats the competition by a mile. My disappointment however, comes from the software that runs the Motorola boxes badged as the FIOS Home Media DVR.
When I first moved to my current apartment I immediately signed for for FIOS when I found out that it was available. For three years before I got FIOS I was (and still am) a big fan of TiVo but I decided that it would make sense to try out VZ's DVR if it meant saving money and reducing the number of boxes connected to my TV so I gave the Home Media DVR and try and sent it back to VZ only three weeks after I began using it.
Two years later I decide to give it a try again because it was being advertised as a bundle that would save me some cash. I figured that bugs in the software would have been worked out by now so I didn't mind giving it a try again. Well I've had the box since Nov 08 and im almost ready to throw it out the window. Many of the problems I experienced the first time I tried the Home Media DVR still exist and thats very disappointing!
Unfortunately, I'm stuck in a contract with this stupid box until Oct this year but you can bet I won't waste a moment kicking these boxes to the curb and replacing them with my TiVos (thank God I kept them).
Unlike the Home Media DVR my TiVo's do not:
- Arbitrarily fast forward when they want without my input.
- Fail to respond to input from the remote if not pointed directly at the box.
- Fail to recognize the input from the remote and do something else.
- Have clunky fast forward and rewind. TiVo is smooth and refined.
- Have a tendency to jump to an entirely different folder after I delete a show in one folder.
- Have options that are un-clear when deciding if the user has to decide if he wants to cancel an existing recording to watch or record something new.
And finally, my TiVos never made me so sick with rage that I dreamed of ways to make it feel the pain and frustration it was causing me.
As I've already said, I love my FIOS internet and TV service but the Home Media DVR has TOO MANY FREAKIN BUGS. At this point I'm not waiting on wither VZ or Motorola to fix them; I'll just be waiting out my contract so i can send this damd box back to hell and place my TiVos back where they belong making me and my life much more happy.
Rant Over!

Ya know, I like the fact that you can easily watch a show recorded on the Home Media DVR in another room in an instant.....But the negatives pop-up when you try to have any interaction with the box outside of stop and start. If that show has commercials and you try to skip them the DVR has a really hard time understanding what the satelite box it telling it to do. Then this odd problem I have with my box is that if im watching a show and I let it play straight through (not fast forwarding through commercials), it picks a point when it wants to start fast forwarding on its own and it doesn't stop. So if I walk away during a commercial break its possible that when I return, it will have reached the end of the show. (what the crap is that all about)
So while I like the instant satifaction the Home Media DVR provides in that sense, Its not enough to make me hate transferring a show using TiVo.

Some question about fade in // fade out by hideEffect and showEffect in Actionscript

Some question about fade in // fade out by hideEffect and
showEffect in Actionscript
Please kindly take a look at the following page:
http://camusmiu.no-ip.com/HounganQuestion/PictureHolderTest.html
(can view source)
I tried to make an image preloaded and scale the image to
it's preferred size.
When I came to consolidate the stuff into a component, I
found the application goes weird as I implementation the show/hide
effect.
The third trial which just hide and show the images directly,
instead of using viewstack, fail to bring the second image onto
screen.
It just used fadeOut instead of fadeIn(you see there is a
flash of the second image)
After some study of showEffect and hideEffect behaviour,
seems the mechanism of hide/show a component works in this way:
this._fadeIn:Fade = new Fade();
this._fadeIn.alphaFrom = 0;
this._fadeIn.alphaTo = 1;
this._fadeIn.duration = 1000;
this._fadeOut:Fade = new Fade();
this._fadeOut.alphaFrom = 1;
this._fadeOut.alphaTo = 0;
this._fadeOut.duration = 1000;
Component_A.visible = true;
Component_A.setStyle("showEffect", this._fadeIn);
Component_A.setStyle("hideEffect", this._fadeOut);
then when I set Component_A.visible = false, the sequence
works like following:
Component_A.visible = true
Component_A.visible = true, alpha = 100;
Component_A.visible = true, alpha = 50;
Component_A.visible = true, alpha = 0;
Component_A.visible = false;
The above sequence works visa versa as:
Component_A.visible = false;
Component_A.visible = true, alpha = 0;
Component_A.visible = true, alpha = 50;
Component_A.visible = true, alpha = 100;
Component_A.visible = true;
(Correct me if i am wrong)
========================================================================================== ====
From what I observe from the application, I have two
question.
1) When more than one component using the this._fadeIn,
this_fadeOut as the hide/show effects, the component in instance of
this._fadeIn? will it mess out if more than one component using the
fadeIn instance in the same time?
2) from the third component, i.e. PictureHolder3, when I load
other the picture , it fade out the new image instead of fading
in... Seems there is problem if I hide show too frequent. I think
when I hide then show right the way, the component only do the hide
part...
Can someone pls look into it and tell me what I did wrong?
Cuz in normal practice I don't think appropriate to use ViewStack
in Actionscript...

Hello Jack,
Currently, you can only import an swf file or you can embed videos from youtube, vimeo etc. into Muse / add HTML5 Video to Your Website.
Take a look at these simple videos that explain the currently available processes for adding videos in Muse, in a step by step method:

How to change the "short name (account name?)" and home directory name?

Hi,
I recently purchased a new iMac and migrated account info from my MacBook Pro. I happened to use random account name during migration without knowing it will not be easy to change the short name (account name?) and home directory name. As a result, I am now having extremely confusing short name and home directory name on my new iMac.
I did online search to find out how to change the two names, but I could only found somethig like "enabiling root user and....." I have no idea what it was talking about and I don't want to take risk altering such advance set up manually.
Please advice how I can change the short name and home directory name safely without much PC knowledge.
Thank you very much in advance.

There are a few ways of doing this. The easiest method is logging into the first account and copying everything to an external drive (or flash drive or whatever), which changes the permissions so that others can see the files.
Then, login with the new account and copy the files over. Once they are copied, the correct permissions will be applied again (so other people on your computer can't access them).
If you can't do this method for one reason or other, you can do some terminal commands to change the ownership of the files. Login to the new account. If it is an admin account, open terminal and type the following command:
sudo chown -R -v yourusername:admin /Users/originalaccountnamehere
That should change the ownership of the files from your old account to the new one. At that point, you can simply drag the files into place.

Question about using the Combo Box feature!

I have a form that I am trying to create for our company that will allow our field nurses to select what they need and print it more effieciently. The problem is that some of the selections are too long and I can't get the Combo box feature to allow them to be printed on multiple lines:
I have spoken to my supervisor about redoing the form to look like this:
But in order for us to meet state guidelines it has to be formated like the first because that is the state form given to us. I want to be able to either:
A) have the combo box multi-line auto text sized so it will get all the information into each box
OR
B) create text boxes at the end of the form that auto enteries the selected data from the second picture into boxes that look like the first picture.
Is there any way to do either of these?

A) No.
B) Yes. Create a text box with the following code as the custom calculation
script (assuming the name of the combo is "Combo Box1"):
event.value = this.getField("Combo Box1").value;
That way, when the user makes a selection in the combo-box, the value will
also appear in the text box. Just make sure to make the text box read-only
and set the combo-box to apply the selection immediately.

Question about how the Robocopy /B switch works...

I've been experimenting with robocopy recently, and most switches seem self explanatory for the most part; although I have a question about the /B switch.
The help says the following:
/B :: copy files in Backup mode.
I've checked multiple forums and websites to try and elaborate on this a little more, and from my understanding this switch enables backup mode that essentially gives the ability to change the acls of a file/folder when the account running robocopy does
not have sufficient privileges, to perform a successful copy.
My question is, when the acls are changed when using this "backup mode" switch, with the /copyall switch, will the file still retain the same user access that it originally had - or does it change all of the security settings?
I'm hoping it will somehow change the security settings, create a copy, and retain the same acls as the original - so users can still access necessary files.
Can someone please explain how this "backup mode" works?
Thanks in advance.

This is a very useful thread with a lot of hostility in it.
I have to agree with Jonathan and hazymat: there are few other forums that will discuss the exact function of /b switch, the TechNet article just says "copies in Backup Mode" (I have the article bookmarked), and when doing a google search, THIS page comes
up as the top result! Kinda difficult to tell people they should go search, when you are the exact destination of that search, isn't it? ;)
No offense to anybody working hard to help out here, but this is why sites like Stack Exchange will overshadow every traditional tech forum very soon. More concise question/answer format, more civil, and they actually encourage old questions developing new
answers! All q&a is cataloged for future reference. Their focus is on being a 'resource'.
The negativity here is unfortunate, you guys have great potential to be a very helpful resource for people. Who are you trying to be, the guys with all the answers, or the guys who say "get out of here, your answer isn't in here. Go search for it."?
Regardless, many thanks to jrv! for helping me with my robocopy batch SCRIPT which I just used to create an automated backup! Take care boys. And yes, I just bumped your old-old thread.
Unfortunately I think you miss the point. RoboCopy is an application. It is not a script. This is a scripting forum. Many people come here nd never read the forum guidelines and do not ask script related questions.
The /b switch is documented in RoboCopy help. Of course it assumes the reader is a trained Windows tech and knows what backup mode is. It is used by nearly all backup software when backing up a live system..
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Questions about using the Voice Memos app

I'm currently an Android user, but will be getting an iPhone 6 soon. My most used app is the voice memos app on my Android phone. I have a couple questions about the iPhone's built-in voice memos app.
-Am I able to transfer my voice memos from my Android phone to my iPhone, so my recordings from my Android app will show up in the iPhone's voice memos app?
-When exporting voice memos from the iPhone to computer, are recordings in MP3 format? If not, what format are they in?
-In your opinion, how is the recording quality of the voice memos app?

You cannot import your Android voice memos to your iPhone's voice memo app. You might be able to play the Android memos and have the iPhone pick up the audio and record it.
Here is the writeup about sending voice memos from the iPhone to your computer (from the iPhone User Guide):
App quality is excellent.

Some question about communicating the usb RAW device

I have some question about USB communication: I want to make my VI communicate
TI-DSP by USB, now, the driver of USB on DSP have done, and there are a test
program writen by VC and a driver fold(with a .inf and a .sys files), when I
install the driver and run the test program, the driver program on DSP run
regularly. And then I want to program a VI which have the same function as the
test program, so I unload the driver on PC firstly, then install the DSP in
NI_VISA according to "Using NI-VISA 3_0 to Control Your USB Device - Tutorial -
Instrument Drivers". When I sent the standard control request using the VISA test panel, the status below happened. I don't know what wrong with my step.

1、Do I have to install the .sys driver file in VISA? How can I install the driver file without losing the device in MAX?
2、Someone told me it must be done by calling .dll fies in LV, but I want to know if LV can program the function directly without calling .dll file?
Thank for any reply~~!

This thread
contains already a related answer and explains what a sys driver is.
While you could theoretically use the Call Library Node to call all the
necessary Win32 API kernel functions to connect to a device driver,
this would be very cumbersome and not doable without a real good
understanding about C programming. Writing an interface DLL instead
won't need more C programming knowledge at all but will give you a
clean interface to that device driver which eventually could be used in
other programming environments as well.

Question about rendering the page

hi
i have button on page 73 which this button brings me to page 74
in page 74 i have a sqlquery report region,
and another simple html region which have a button
called "send_mail" there is a process which executed when i press this
button and of course i did branch to this button which brings me to the same page 74
my question is do the sqlquery report region run again when the page in
rendering? or the apex save it as cache? and if not is there a way that it won't run again but stay in cache like"save state" ? cause i saw only conditional display and not conditional process of sqlquery report?
the reason that i ask this cause the query is very heavy
thanks in advanced

Hello Naama,
>> i wanted to ask if there any more things that i can missed because of this "old" version
APEX is using the PL/SQL Web Toolkit extensively. I don’t really know the differences between every version, and I don’t think it’s matter. In some cases, a new version can fix some bugs (like in the rendering process), in others, can add new features (like caching) and in general, making the code better (optimizing etc.). So, I can’t really give you a list of things you are missing, but I can assure you that not using the latest version can damage/degrade the quality of your system.
There is another problem with not meeting the pre-required installation terms, because usually people will assume you are. It can make debugging really hard. In your case, you were lucky that Scott asked you right away about the OWA version. Unfortunately, Scott is unique that way. Other (like you and me) can spent a lot of time trying to figure out why something is not working as expected, without knowing (remembering) that the only reason is a faulty infrastructure.
Is there a problem to install the latest version of the PL/SQL Web Toolkit? As far as APEX concern, it will not harm your 1.6 instance, and should not damage any other database functionality, so why not upgrade?
Regards,
Arie.

Question about navigating the Web

Sometimes when I want to go 'back' to a previous page on the Net a box comes up and asks if I'm sure I want to do this....I can't remember the exact wording. Can someone tell me what this means?

"+That will happen if you have entered some data on a web page, then use Back, before the data has been sent. It is warning you that anything you typed into the page will be lost."+
All of you contributed to that statement, which makes perfect sense. When I'd get that message, "Are you sure", I hadn't noticed that I'd probably backed out of a form I either filled in or intended to but didn't fill in. As a matter of fact, when I copied the statement above, then hit "Reply", the box to reply was there but because I wasn't sure I'd copied the words correctly I clicked to go 'back' to copy them again, and there was the box asking me if I was 'sure' I wanted to do that. I had proof of the truth of the above statement in short order! Never have I received such a good and true answer! Thanks so much!

Need to ask a question about getting the iPhone 5 without an upgrade available.

Alright so I have currently an iPhone 4S and do NOT have an upgrade available. My question is how do i go about buying the 5 then? From what I know, Apple sells "unlocked" phones at around $750 (I want the 32gig version) but wont come out on launch day. Is there a Verizon specific phone that I can get instead of an "unlocked" phone that would cost cheaper and I can get it on launch day? Or do I have to preorder it through verizon's website?
Another thing is...is there certain fee's that I would have to pay to go along with the phone if I can buy it?

Pernoe: I'm no expert, but this is the way I understand unlocked phones. Unlocked phones that use GSM technology can work on either T-Mobile or AT&T networks. Unlocked phones that use CDMA technology can work on either Sprint or Verizon networks. I can't tell you the difference between GSM and CDMA... I just don't really know what it is, just that AT&T and T-Mobile use GSM and Sprint and Verizon use CDMA.
That being said, I purchased (or at least ordered... my credit card has not been charged yet) 2 iPhone 5's from Verizon and opted to pay full price instead of taking the contract discount. You don't need to buy an unlocked phone to pay full price. You just have to select "month-to-month" pricing instead of "2 year contract" pricing when you buy the phone.

Questions about flashing the bios

Hi everyone. I have a few questions about the process involved in a bios update.
First, I should tell you I have a Lenovo G470 that sometimes has problems booting.
The problem is I turn on the laptop and after 2-3 seconds it shuts down. I see the logo, and nothing else. After that I can spend hours trying to turn it on again, and keeps failing. After some time, I turn it on and use it without problems.
Before these problems, I had experienced similar troubles, but I could fix it (in my way) and I explained it in this post: http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Lenovo-3000-and-Essential/Lenovo-g470-shutdown-problems-in-intervals-of-...
Ok, In that post a reply says that a possible solution could be a Bios update. So, I've been thinking to flash the bios to solve my actual problem, but I would like to ask you some questions:
1. Updating the bios could be a solution for this case?
2. How long does it take to update a lenovo G470 bios? (I ask this because I read that if a problem occurs in the middle the damage can be serious, and in the past I had these random shutdowns, so I'm a bit afraid)
3. How am I sure if my bios is or not updated? (there's a way to check this from windows?)
4. Finally, if you could give me a link to download the correct bios update I'll thank you.
I think that's all. I apologize for my basic english and hope you could give me some clues on this, because, as you see, I'm a total newbie.
Thanks!

hi alemaneitor,
Regarding your questions:
1. Yes, flashing the BIOS may help solve your problem as it will re-write the configurations on the CMOS. Take note though of the changelogs or README (repair changes) as the latest BIOS updates fixes critical issues on the hardware.
I've also seen some units that act the same as yours and doing a gpu reflow most of the time fixes the issue - see this thread in reference.
2. In flashing the BIOS outside of Windows, it takes less than a minute. If you need to run the BIOS flash utility inside Windows, it may take 1-2mins.
3. If there's a new BIOS that fixes critical issues, it's most of the time uploaded on the lenovo website (in some cases, BIOS updates are not available to the public and can only be used by service technicians)
4. The latest BIOS update for the Lenovo G470 is the one below that fixes an issue on units that can not enter BIOS after restart under compatible HDD mode (see README.TXT)
BIOS Update for 32bit Windows
40cn33ww_32.exe
3.28MB
BIOS Update for 64bit Windows

Question about clearing the main drive

Not quite sure if this is even possible (I'm not the greatest with computers) but I'm interested in just cleaning up my hard drive. I've had the computer for a year and just want to get rid of some of the programs I'm not using in order to improve the processor speed, etc.. I know just dragging stuff to the trash doesn't completely clear it, what is the best way about going through my Mac and clearing off old files and programs.

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Most applications create preference files which are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can located them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term.
There are also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
AppZapper
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at www.versiontracker.com or www.mackupdate.com.

Questions about tuning the USRP packet -based link examples

Hi everyone,
   Today I do some tests and tunning on the USRP packet-based link examples, and I find these questions:
   First I set the following parameters to the Packet Transmitter.vi: Tx frequency=2441M, samples per symblol=8, sample rate=800k, then the symbol rate should be 100k
   Then I set the Rx frequency to 2441=M and do three tests to the USRP packet receiver.vi:
   1. set the samples per symbol to 8, the sample rate to 800k, all the packets can be received correctly very fast.
   2. set the samples per symbol to 40, the sample rate to 4M, all the packtes can be received correctly, but slower than the former test.
   3. set the samples per symbol to 50, the sample rate to 5M, all the packets can be received correctly, but much slower than the former two tests.
   4. set the samples per symbol to 40, the sample rate to 5M, but change the sample rate to  4M when input the argument to the resample&demod_shell.vi, then I find that no packets can be received correctly.(According to my understanding, resampling the data with 4M sample rate should make the input data time-aligned)
   Can anyone help me interprete above test? Thanks in advance!

Hi 0711,
You are correct. If you sample at 5MS/s and have a samples/sym of 40, resampling with a sample rate of 4MS/s will allow you to receive the signal. Digging into the sub_resample_and_demodulate.vi, I found the issue. The modulation toolkit resample VI that is being used pulls the sample rate of the incoming signal from the incoming waveform (or the dt of the incoming waveform). In the resample and demodulate subvi, the dt of the incoming signal was hard wired to be 1/x of the desired sampling rate. For all other uses cases, having these 2 parameters hard wired together does not cause a problem, but for the 4th case you described it does. I edited the subvi like shown in the image below and was able to get it working:
Hope that helps and let me know if you have any further questions. I'll do my best to get you an answer.

Question about using the Captivate KO

My colleague and I are trying to get our course published,
using the Captivate KO. (We have tried inserting the Captivate quiz
using ActiveX, but neither of us have any experience with ActiveX,
so this seemed to be the better option.)
We are trying to publish the Authorware file now to test it,
and are running into problems. We have to publish our courses so
they play over the web (for testing) and through Plateau LMS (for
students to receive credit for the classes). The file location for
our courses is a shared server.
When we publish the file, from the web, we can't see the
Captivate KO quiz at all, and from Plateau we get a Runtime error
when the quiz begins to play. Basically, it is a failure across the
board.
We are thinking the problem lies in the literal/relative path
question when we first upload the quiz into the KO. Does anyone
have any idea what the right method for this would be?
(Everything works when the file is on one of our hard drives,
and that person publishes the file. It plays just fine for that
person, from her hard drive. So, that's how we've narrowed it down
to a path problem, when we move it to the server.)
Thanks!

Hello,
You need to enter a valid Adobe ID, which consists of an e-mail address and your password. You can use the same ID as for the forum. The file to be reviewed will be stored on acrobat.com, reviewers get a link where they can download the file and the (free) Reviewer. It works fine.
