anyone know of a good IOS app that can play all media files, MKV, AVI, Xvid with subtitles across a home network, file share on a NAS or Windows PC?? I know I have BS player free for android, works pretty good on my nexus tablet. is there a good IOS one that anyone can think of that can browse the network?
or do I have to run transcoders?
I store some files on the windows PC and some files on a linux NAS that the windows PC maps to

I'm sorry to hear that.
I'm not affiliated w/ the developer, just a happy user that gave up fighting the apple podcast app a while ago. I used to have a bunch of smart playlists in itunes for my podcasts, and come home every day and pathologically synced my phone as soon as I walked in the door, and again before I walked out the door in the morning.
Since my wife was doing this too, we were fighting over who's turn it was to sync their phone.
Since I've switched to Downcast, I no longer worry about syncing my phone to itunes at all. I can go weeks between syncs.
Setup a "playlist" in downcast (ex., "Commute") and add podcasts to that playlist. Add another playlist ("walk" or "workout") and add different podcasts to that one.
Set podcast priorities on a per-feed basis (ex., high priority for some daily news feeds, medium priority for some favorite podcasts, lower priority for other stuff). Downcast will play the things in the priority you specify, and within that priority, it will play in date order (oldest to newest).
Allegedly, it will also sync your play status to other devices, although that is not a feature I currently use and can't vouch for. It uses apple's iCloud APIs, so to some extent may be limited by what Apple's APIs can do.

Can I develop an iOS app that can interface with Photoshop?

I want to create an iOS application for interfacing with Photoshop (and other Adobe apps) and I was just wondering if this was possible.
I know there are official Adobe apps that can do this, but I can't seem to find anything on creating one. It will basically be my own version of "Adobe Nav". I find the official app lacking and have an idea of exactly what I want. I don't think I will release the app in the app store unless there are enough people who want it when I post the finished app. I plan to just run it on my own iPad.

Yes, you'll find the companion app SDK in the normal Photoshop SDK.

Looking for a free iOS 4 app that can search through .pdf files or spreadsheets

Looking for a free iOS 4 app that can search through .pdf files or spreadsheet
Thanks

Hey there
"pdf creator" for iPad works flawlessly for me working with pdf files
It takes care of all my needs
I'm not sure about sending via Wifi or Bluetooth but I send them via e- mail all the time
Possibly it could handle your needs as well
Just type it into the App Store search field and the first one that comes up is the one I use
Jump on over there and read up on it before buying and see if it will help you
Hope this helps

Any app that can play wmv files?

Hi, like some other users here, I'm facing the inability to open my wmv attachments in my mail -which is quite frustrating considering that most of my friends are windows users. I know iPad doesn't support wmv and some other windows video files, but isn't there any app that can get around this problem? I searched Appstore and one of the results I got was called AirvideoFree but dumb 'ol me can't understand how it works. Their website doesn't help much either. Any answer (in simple to follow steps) is welcome. If this app is not what I'm looking for-is there any other available?

I contacted Omar with support for Azul and was quickly answered. I was having the same problem. Since iOS4 multitasks you will need to double click the home button to show apps running in the back ground. Hold down on the app until it wiggles. At that point x out or close Azul. Now go back to your mail and click on the attachment and you get option to open with Azul and by using that it will open and play the .wmv file.
Omar said problem is a bug and they are working to fix it in an upcoming update. This is a great little app and the price is very reasonable IMHO. The above mentioned work around involves a couple of extra clicks but since I could not even view .wmv before I am happy with the work around.

Can I develop an iOS app that can download multiple free iBooks that I publish and make them available within the iBooks app?

Is it possible for a self-developed iOS app to download iBooks from our server and make the books available to the iBooks app?
My organization is evaluating publishing some free training manuals / textbooks as iBooks made with Apple's "iBooks Author" software. We don't necessarily want to use the iTunes Store for distribution because of the semi-sensitive nature of the content. To distribute the books to users with iPads, we've thought of using MDM software, a webpage, or an iOS app. The reasoning behind an iOS app is that the app would be a "download manager", making it much easier for a user to download all 42 books all at once. A user would install our "free training manual download manager" iOS app and use it to authenticate to a our server app that would serve the books, the end result being the books available via the iBooks app.
Thanks,
Ted

Hi Kappy,
Actually Apple lets self-publishers distribute iBooks outside of the iTunes Store, as long as the iBooks are free (no cost to user).
What I'm wondering is if it's possible for a custom iOS app to side-load iBooks so that they're available to a user within the iBooks app.
If not, we'll either post the iBooks for download from our website or we'll use MDM software to push the iBooks to MDM-enrolled iPads.

Anyone knows a DVD player for TV which can play QuickTime movies /FCP movie

I am trying to find a DVD player for my television which can play a QuickTime or Final Cut Pro movie which is on a DVD. Do you know one ?
I have a FCP movie (720 x 576 ) transfed to a DVD ( UDF format ).
I have tryed to play the DVD in many DVD plyers, but they all say " unknown file format "

playing them through AppleTV, can do the trick?
yes and no. The AppleTV is a terribly crippled product. Seems to have been launched with only a few of its capabilities enabled and then it sort of got forgotten.
Before investing in an AppleTV box, be sure to read the product reviews from the MAcintosh magazines and especially the PC magazines. You want to get objective information about this weirdly limited box.

Anyone know of a good flash generator that will add a controller?

I've added a flash video at www.davidlyell.biz/demoreel.html and am happy with it, but I would like the controls to move around the video placed beneath the actual video. I've been searching the web for a good html flash code generator, without success. Anyone have any suggestions on that? Thanks.

Not certain if this is what you are looking for but I have it working on my
website. Only $29.00

Does anyone know the list of microprocessors that can be used with SDK?

I want to make a vision application that uses a usb camera from a custom board wiht a 32 bit microporcessor.

f4,
You can "use the LabVIEW Microprocessor SDK to port LabVIEW to any 32-bit microprocessor" (to quote from the first sentence of the Microprocessor SDK help file). There's good and bad news with this LabVIEW module though. Good news - if you have the module, you can integrate just about any toolchain (3rd party compiler) into LabVIEW. Bad news - the module doesn't work with anything out of the box. This is one of the reasons that if you don't have the module already, you might find it very hard to purchase it from NI now. It can be a bit cumbersome to setup.
If you call NI now asking to target any 32-bit microcontroller, we're going to encourage you to use the LabVIEW for ARM module or the LabVIEW C Generator. If your chipset is supported by the LabVIEW for ARM module, I would recommend that you go this route. A list of supported chipsets is here (as chipsets compatible with LabVIEW for ARM need to support the "RL-ARM Real-Time Library").

Does anyone know of a phone tech service that can help me set up my Cisco WAP4410N pre-owned router?

I am not a tech personality and need a bit of hand holding in setting up my WAP4410N device. My old router Linksys 1500 seems to be having dropping signal issues and I purchased this WAP4410N online to replace it. I need to know if I made the right choice in the purchase and how to set it up.
Tony

Hello,
I'm a Cisco Engineer and I'm sorry, I don't have a phone number to give you but I actually replied to this post to clarify something:
The WAP4410N is not a router, it is just an Access Point, so if you are trying to replace a router, this is really not the right device. As you can see this unit has a single port on the back as opposed to 4 LAN ports and 1 Internet port.
If you are correct o the model number then my advice is for you to look for another device, an actual router so that you can replace your Linksys unit.
I hope this was helpful

How do i disable QT so that WMP plays all mpeg files?

I continue to play with the preference under "file types" for both players, but I cannot fix this. Whenever I click on an mpeg link, it plays in quick time. I want it to play in WMP without having to uninstall QT everytime.
Does anyoen know how to fix this?
Thanks

Whenever I click on an mpeg link, it plays in quick time.
In your QuickTime Preferences, click on the "Browser" tab, and click the "MIME Settings ..." button. Expand the MPEG ... entry and uncheck all the MPEG entries.
Is that of any help?
