Automate cable TV recording.....

Hi,
Does anyone know of a Macintosh program that will allow me to record Component Video through my BlackMagic Intensity pro like a DVR or VCR? I don't mind doing it the old fashioned way ie.; set the start time and tell it how long.... and then walk away with the cable box tuned to the right channel.
I would feel ahead of the game if I could just record the cable signals I'm paying for in HD with what I have at hand unattended on a schedule, without paying "rent" for a DVR unit.
I've got the hardware elements all here, I just need to be able to "kick off" the recording at the appropriate time automatically.
The USB and PCI "unencrypted QAM" and ATSC hardware/software combinations out there are useless because of the way that Time Warner Cable delivers the signal to me. Almost nothing is "unencrypted", even the stuff I pay for (which is all I care about - I'm not into piracy). I can get any channel I'm paying for just fine through the component connections, I'm just looking to do timed recording this way.
Thanks!

Thanks for the fast response !!
Firerecord saw my SA 3250HD the first time I ran it, and it recorded a blank file when I had the box tuned to a basic cable channel and I gave FireRecord the New Immediate Event command. I then tried to do a short timed New Event recording of a broadcast range cable channel and nothing happened. FireRecord now keeps giving me a "There Are No Available Devices" message no matter what recording command I give it.
I've connected/disconnected the Firewire cable, rebooted, powered everything down and up and still no luck.
I'd really like to record to an MPEG2 quality file with some program that would look to the Intensity Pro component inputs for the import of the video. This whole "unencrypted" mess is just an extra complication with any tuner oriented solution. I'd really just rather deal with the straight output from component if possible.
I'm not familiar with Applescript at all. I'd rather not program this if I don't need to.
Thanks again!
Pete D.

How to send e-mail notification automatically when a record is inserted?

Dear All,
Could anyone kindly tell me how to send e-mail notification automatically when a record is inserted through a form in Oracle Portal Release 2?

Hi,
If you are writing a form on a table then you can call the mail API from a database trigger on the table. If it is a form on a procedure, you can make the email call from the procedure. To know more about sending mails from plsql go to

Automatic purchase info record

how do you create automatic purchase info record, what are the steps to do it, and how that helps in p2p process?

Hi,
While creating external purchasing documents ( like PO) in item details materials tab infoUpdate check box is there
Info record update
Determines whether the prices and conditions of this purchase order item are suggested in future PO items.
Use
Selecting InfoUpdate causes one of the following situations to occur:
        If just one info record (with or without plant) exists, it is updated.
        If no info record exists and "plant condition requirement" was specified in Customizing, an info record with plant is created. Otherwise, an info record without plant is created.
        If two info records exist (that is, one info record with plant and one without plant) the info record with plant is updated.
Dependencies
You can specify that prices and conditions in purchasing info records are only allowed at plant level in the Purchasing IMG, under Conditions -> Define Condition Control at Plant Level.
Other Purchasing documents Scheduling agreement, Quotations (me47) Choose the required line item and click on the "item detail" icon and put the necessary value for info update
Indicator: Update Info Record
Determines whether:
    The purchasing info record for this vendor and material is to refer to this PO item, and
    The item is to be valid for the entire purchasing organization or just for the plant.
Use
The indicator determines which prices and conditions are suggested in future PO items.
Prices and conditions can apply to an entire purchasing organization or to a single plant within a purchasing organization.
For example, if you create a purchase order for a plant for which an info record has been defined at plant level, the purchase order is based on the conditions in the plant info record and not on the conditions that apply to the purchasing organization.
Procedure
Enter the relevant plant key:
A
Updating of the document number is effected at plant level as long as there is a purchasing info record at plant level. Otherwise the document number is updated at purchasing organization level.
B
Updating is effected at plant level if plant conditions are allowed for the plant.
C
Updating is effected without plant data if plant conditions are not necessary for the plant.
Dependencies
The level at which updating of the document number may be effected is defined for each plant.
Hope it clears.

Distinguish b/w Automatically created Info Record and created thru ME11

Hi,
How can we distinguish between Automatically created Info Record and manually created Info Record (By User through ME11 transaction).
Where we can see the difference???
Plz guide...

Hi,
In case of Automatically created Info record, Net price and Effective price fields will be blank where as in case of manual info record, you maintain the price under "conditions" manually and which gets updated in net price and effective price fields.
Also Run Reports ME1M and ME1L, Info records with "Condition No Price Found" are automaically created. And manual info records will have have "Condition XXX Amount"

Query-Automatic assignment of Record type to Book of Business-Pls help me

I have a query about Automatic assignment of record in Book of Business.
Using 5 record types & 50 regions as a part of Book of Business. You can say 50 sub-books.
I want to assign these 5 record type to particular Book when to create & modify.
Eg. When I create new account it should be automatically assigned to Book 1 & later I modify this account for reassignment to new user then it should be automatically added to the new user’s book.
I need to create workflow for this as Assign to book criteria for both when new record saved & when modified record saved.
I have tried this & its working; however problem is with the creation of two many workflows.
50 region (Books) x 5 record types * 2 - Create/modify flow = 500 workflows for one country!
If I am right then I can assign 1 record type with action as create or modify in 1 book only.
How to reduce these no. of workflows?
Pls help me out in this regard.
Regards
Mangesh

Mangesh,
I am sorry to tell you that there is no quick answer to this but i will say that maybe you need to rethink your book structure and their requirements here.
I have 4 types and 7 regions so you need to create books to allocate all these on create and also modify. Customers have raised concerns with this to Oracle and they are looking into it but they are along way from completing this. Sorry to spoil your day but i would strongly ask you to consider your books structure before you complete this.
Otherwise if you are using webservices you could assisgn the book when the record is piped into the CRM and then you only need to complete the modify workflows.

Turn off the vibration or message notification automatically during video recording.

You could set your phone to silent http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Software-Updates/Lollipop-New-Features/m-p/955490#U955490 It's not ideal but it does the trick. I agree with you, I wish we had an option that if an app/game it's on immersive mode, like while using the camera, we had an option to deactivate the notifications popping and/or the notifications without having to set the phone to silent.

Correct cable for recording

I am getting ready to do some "real instrument" recording and am only missing the cable that connects my mic preamp to my PowerBook.
Should I use a 1/8" mono cable or can I use a stereo TRS cable?
I am recording with a JoeMeek LDC through the JoeMeek VC3Q preamp/compressor/EQ. It has 1/4" output. Can I use the 1/8" TRS with a 1/4" mono adapter on the preamp end?
If this has been covered on the forum somewhere else, I am sorry to bring it back up...I could not find the info I am seeking though.
Thanks,
-matt

Thanks HangTime. Let me ask this then... Say I want to--at some point-- plug my stereo Alesis synth in and record either to two mono tracks or one stereo track. Can I get away with buying only the stereo TRS cable and using it in place of the mono TS cable? or does it depend on the switching of the output device whether the signal will pass correctly?

Automatic Vendor MD record creation from Customer MD record

Hi Gurus,
I have the following requirement: I have customers that are also vendors. I will create Customer Master Data via IDOCs. My client wants the system to create a vendor master data record for those customers automatically when the customer MD IDOC is posted and a custmer number is generated.
Do you have any idea how to do that?
I suppose it should be some exit for the IDOC_INPUT_CREMAS function module but... what should I trigger ? How can I map the customer data to the vendor master data ?
Is there any Workflow/BAPI that can help with this ?
Thanks
Jose Frugone

If you are creating a Lead Record using Webservices then you can also automatically create an Account or Contact Record as well. Make sure that you create the code to search the CRM first to make sure that the account or contact dont already exsist and then if they dont create an account or contact if they dont then the lead should be associated with the Account or Contact.

Refresh table automatically after adding record in dynpro

I have a table element in my layout which is bind to a dictionary table and displaying the records correctly.I have input fields in the same view along with the add buttoon which inserts the entered record into the dictionary table successfully.
Till now its fine but what I want is after adding the record, the displayed record in the table should be refreshed automatically.I guess one method would be that in action of button click i fetch the records using select query into an internal table and bind it again to the table.
Is there any other method to do this. Also will supply function be helpful in this case???
THanks

Automatic relashionship between records

Hello,
our users find it a bit time consuming to recreate the links (which seems implicit) between the different records.
1) An account contains contacts. One creates an opportunity and wants to associate a contact of this account. Why do we need to search in all contacts of our application and not only the contacts of the account? Is there a way to select only among the contacts of this particular account?
2) We are using the "order" record. When we create a new order, it is automatically associated to the opportunity (this works), but why is it not automatically associated (by default) to the account which contains the opportunity? This seems to require manual selection which is very time-consuming. Is there a way to automate this?
thank you
Philippe

Hi !
For your first point, there's no other way than search in the whole database in order to associate a contact to an opportunity.
I asked for a enhancement request for this because I wanted that by default, only the account contacts are displayed. If you want to ask too, you can mention the enhancement request CR#12-1SBQXBB. The more we are to ask, the better it is.
For the second point, you'll have to add a default value on the AccountId field of the order object. This default value will be something like :
JoinFieldValue('<Opportunity>', [<OpportunityId>], '<AccountId>')
When creating a new order record, this function will return the account id of the opportunity object corresponding to the opportunity id given.
Hope this will help, feel free to ask more !

N95 gets restart automatically while video recordi...

Whenever I try to record video more than 4-5 min, my N95 gets restarted automatically while recording and doesnt even save the video. But when I record smaller video say 1-2 min everything is fine. I have Phone from O2 germany and Nokia website says that I have latest software version installed.
Please help me to fix this problem.
thank you

I have reboot problems as well. I haven't had the chance to try long video but it will reboot on almost any application.
As soon as the battery load is too high (it does get warm). I think it has to do with not being able to supply the current draw so the voltage drops and the phone reboots.
For me it was Maps that caused the reboot, or if I'm in maps and I get a phone call it would reboot. I could even get it to reboot when I was scrolling through the contact list non-stop.

VK11/VK12: Automatically create anothercondition record upon saving

Hi,
First of all this is my first time to post a question here. I find every thread very helpful and other members helpful.
We came with a requirement to automatically create another condition record after the user clicks the save buttons. I'm not inclined in this module so to give you an idea in my requirement here are the following steps:
1. User go to VK11
2. Choose Selling Price List/Material access sequence
3. In the the screen the user enter a sales org, distribution channel, and price list.
Ex: Sales Organization: 0024
      Distribution Channel: 00
      Price List: 03
4. User enter in grid, material, amount, conditoin pricing unit.
Ex:
Material: 4668
Amount: 5,00
Condition Pricing Unit: 1
5. User click saves. Entries in tables KONH and KONP are populated. Condition record is saved
Now the requirement is create a duplicate conditoin record but with DIFFERENT price list-> 02 and amount. The new amount will be computed manually in the enhancement.
I did my part researching what can be done to solve this requirment. In the old threads, some suggest to use BADI BADI SD_COND_SAVE_A BADI. The problem is I am also not familiar in using BADI so I hope someone can tell me how I can learn BADI so I can implement the requirements. For the creation of condition records, I still have no idea how to do it.
So here are my current challenges:
1. How can I trap the save button in VK11/VK12. I am also thinking if all required validations were done prior to the creation to the conditoin record. I'm also thinking what are the things I should consider before creating a duplicate condition record with the different pricelist 03 and amount.
2. How can I create a condition records. Should I use a BAPI? I am also not familiar with BAPI
In addition to the requirement, I am thinking of some problems that might arise. I think there should be checking before creating the duplicate condition records. But I have no idea what are the things to consider.
I hope I explained my requirment clearly. Please feel free to ask for clarifications or question in my requirement. Thank you for your help. I really appreciate any help.
Thanks and God Bless.

USB CABLE/FLASH RECORDER CRASH

I tried to connect a Marantz PDM671 to my iBook(10.4.2) with a cable, and it shut down the USB ports. A small flash card reader that has been trouble free wouldn't work either.
A call to Apple Service got me running again with some key stroke mumbo-jumbo but only using the card reader. Connecting the recorder with the cable shut it down again.
Could this be a cable problem, or should I assume it's the recorder?
TIA
ibook G4, B&W G3 Mac OS X (10.4) 0S 9.2, Peak Le

Ok, I got a new cable.
Somewhere I heard that it was necessary to hook up with the recorder on battery power. Done.
When I hooked up according to directions, it still doesn't appear on the desktop.
Checking the System Profiler, under USB High-Speed bus there was: USB TO IDE:, which I assume is the recorder.
Any tips appreciated.

Automatically numbering database records

I have a database in AW 6 and would like each record numbered so that I can count records. I saw that I can do this for entering new records, but have already set up and imported most data. I would like the numbers not linked to each specific record but just to give me the amount of records I have regardless of what sort order they are in. Am I missing the way to do this?

Brie Fly's suggestion covers your stated requirement of simply knowing the number of records in the DB.
If you do want to actually number each record, the process is fairly simple:
1. Place the records in the order you want them numbered.
2. Press shift-command-D to open the Define Fields dalogue.
3. Create a new Serial Number type field, accepting the default values.
4. Click Done.
The new field will be added to to open layout (assuming there is room), and will be automatically populated with numbers showing each records position in the current order of records.
Note: The values are not dynamic. If you delete record 3, the values in all other records will remain unchanged.

Captivate 5 Not recording actions in Automatic mode but records in FMR

Hi, I am trying to create a software simulation of SharePoint. The users need to be shown how to edit pages, profiles, etc. I am running Captivate 5 as administrator. The operating system is Windows 7. The problem is when I record the actions in Automatic mode, some of the actions are not captured; for example when chosing a profile picture from an explorer window, clicking Save and Close button on the edit profile page. However, when I record these same actions in FMR, everything is captured. Now that it adds extra work for me to insert captions in the FMR, wanted to check why Captivate is not capturing all the actions in Automatic Demo mode. Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Hareesh

In order for Captivate to perform an automatic capture it has to 'hear' the screen event, e.g. a button click, load of a dialog box, drop-down menu etc. Some software advertises these events well, others don't. In almost all software you'll typically need to do SOME manual captures, and for some software you'll need to do lots. Sounds like SharePoint might fall into the latter category.
