Bit of a strange question

Hi guys,
here goes -
I have created a small movie in livetype (a title sequence) and have imported this into a new FCE project. The project also contains a number of still images.
Now, I set the project up as I want it and have audio added, and can export it (to ipod or iphone) and when it is finished I can see on my mac that the icon representing the file shows the first still image in the sequence (ie not the title)
Is there anyway to force a specific image to be shown (either in Final Cut or through the mac)
thanks

Hi(Bonjour)!
May be with the show thumbnailcolumn in browser and setting a custom icon there is a specific shortcut.
See those instructions from FCE user manual:
+When thumbnails are displayed, the image shown is the first frame of the clip or the In point of the clip, if one is set. You can scrub through a thumbnail by dragging in the image, but the frame shown in the Browser always reverts to the In point of the clip.+
+You can change the starting image (called the poster frame) if you want to display another frame in the thumbnail.+
+To set the poster frame in the Browser in large icon view:+
+Scrub through a clip until you get to the desired frame, press and hold the Control key, then release the mouse button.+
May be you can clear the thumbnail cache in final cut express document folder too.

  • Bit of a strange question regarding security and internet connection

    This is a bit of an odd question so bear with me for a moment.
    I sold my old G4 to someone I didn't know yesterday. While he was looking at it to make sure it was working I allowed him to plug my ethernet cable in (connected to both a netgear router and a cable modem) and go online to install an application on the computer he was buying. It did't take long and I didn't actually see what he installed but after he left and I plugged back in to my mac pro, my internet connection started suffering. It started by being very slow and then timing out with servers. I reset the modem and even bypassed the router but the connection did not improve and eventually I could only get a self assigned IP address with no internet, although the modem appeared to be fine.
    Aside from finding my I.P. address at my location, is there anything else he could have compomised security wise, either in the name of harvesting some kind of info or just creating a problem in the cable network when I let him use my connection on the g4?
    I think that most likely I'm being a little paranoid but the timing of this is a bit strange. It literally went down hill just after he left.
    Today the cable company is reporting a wider internet outage than just me but I just though I'd throw it out there to see if there are any security wholes exploitable when someone uses your internet connection (I would think and hope that there are not).
    thanks a bunch

    Well, in the closing the stable door approach it is a good idea to do a complete erase and install when selling any computer. There's lots of references to this and even one about removing a certain file so when they start up they get the brand new Mac greeting window. If you do not erase the drive using the secure erase feature in Disk Utility then with an $80 investment plus an empty spare drive the purchaser can likely recover any files you had on the computer recently if they consider it worth the effort.
    I suspect the internet issue is not related to this, especially since your ISP commented about problems.

  • Bit of a strange one.... HD Movies "Judder" when streaming to ATV2

    Bit of a strange one.... all my HD Movies since the latest ATV2 update "Judder" when streaming.
    It's very hard to describe but whenever there is a fast Zoom or Pan shot the image flickers for around half a second. It seems to happen every 20 seconds or so, this has only been the case since the latest update of ATV2.
    I purchased Tron Legacy (HD) from the iTunes store and it occurs when playing that movie. It also happens on all my self generated HD contect.
    Strangely it does not occur when streaming to my 1st Gen Apple TV, which makes me think it has nothing to do with my Home Network setup, as they are both connected via Ethernet cables.
    There is only a problem with HD Streaming and ATV2.
    Any assistance would be appriciated
    Hans

    The last update seems to have introduced a feature which lets the Apple TV detect the native frequency of your TV, in the UK this is probably but not always 50 Hz, this is beneficial for Home video and broadcast content in these locations where the frame rate is 25 fps. It isn't ideal for 30 fps or 24 fps content though which most of the iTMS movies and TV shows are.
    Also of relevance is that some TV's make a better job of telecine/detelecine than others due to the quality of their components.
    Although I don't necessarily think that Apple are responsible for the ability of 3rd party TV's, the problem could be easily overcome by allowing the user to manually select the Apple TV output as was the case with the Apple TV 1. This would allow the user to switch to 60 Hz for 30/24 fps content and 50 Hz for 25 fps content.
    Some TV's have motion settings which worsen/improve the situation depending on their settings.

  • Strange Question  on Time Series Function

    Hi All,
    I find a strange question when i use time series function. The result of report like this:
    -----year area revenue year_ago_revenue
    1、 2009 a 100
    2、 2009 b 100
    3、 2010 a 200
    4、 2010 b 200 100
    the last column's value of row 3 is null, but it must be 100, I execute the physical sql in log file in database, the result is 100, but show null in report, why? I really can't understand. Any one know why? Thanks.

    For the report which is working correct, what level of information you are seeing? In that report whether the Year Ago is working correctly.
    In time hierarchy, how did you set the chronological keys?
    Thanks,

  • Help!  Has anyone ever seen a strange question mark  in their folders?

    please help, for some reason there is a strange question mark on the top bar of every folder that i open, to the left of the search box. It's quite large and slightly darker than the folder window color around the edge, and when I click it it pops up a new window that says item cannot be found. It has never been there before, what is it and where did it come from, is this a virus? S.O.S.
    powerbook G4 17"   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Control-click on it and choose Remove Item from the menu which appears. The Finder toolbar allows files and folders to be dropped into it; when the Finder can't find one of these, it displays the question mark icon. It is not a virus.

  • Bit Of An Odd Question.

    Hi Everyone, I have a bit of an odd question but my friend gave me his old version of photoshop cs5 with the product key i was wondering if i could register it under my name at all?

    If that copy has been used in any upgrade path, then it is no longer valid.
    Also, Adobe has paperwork, that must be filled out, to transfer ownership of valid licenses. I would have your friend complete that paperwork for the gifted copy. Adobe Customer Support can get them the necessary paperwork. Once, that transfer could be done via FAX, but not sure what the process might be now.
    Good luck,

  • Strange question mark error while opening pdf files in adobereader from SAP

    Hi Gurus
    We are having a strange intermittent problem with Adobe Reader. When we try to open PDF files from SAP Frontend we get an error pop-up. The pop-up does not have any text. The title of the pop-up has "Adobe Reader". There is a blue question mark and an OK button.
    This issue occurs few times a day
    This issue does not occur in Windows XP.
    Since past few weeks, we have been trying to find some error/warning/atleast some text in log files of SAP, OS, Adobe Reader, Registry entries, Event Viewer. So far, we have not found anything.
    SAP is not able to help as this issue occurs intermittently and said when they tried, the issue did not occur. They made two attempts and in each attempt they tried 10 times to reproduce the issue. This issue occurs intermittently.
    Environment
    SAP R/3 4.7 EE SAP_Basis 620 Support Package 61
    Windows Vista Enterprise
    Adobe Reader 9.0 and Adobe Reader 9.1 (tried with both versions)
    SAPGUI 710 Patch 12 (latest patch). It also occured in Patch 11. 
    Please suggest
    Thank you
    Pavan

    Thank you for the quick reply.
    We tried many notes from Service Market Place. Also, Windows Team is in contact with Adobe.
    As per Adobe's suggestions, we tried changing preferences of Adobe Reader. We think it might be a problem with SAP Frontend.
    Present status - Issue still exists. nothing works.
    Thank you

  • Bit of a sneaky question, installing normal firmwa...

    Now this is a bit strange, when I got my N95 from phones 4 u (never again) it was from t-mobile but it just worked as normal when I placed in my Orange sim. Anyway, the firmware now has certain features disabled such as voip which the network have intentionally done and it also has t-mobiles own features such as "web 'n' walk". Is there anyway to re-install the firmware which has not been touched by any network? as though I bought it direct from Nokia.
    I don't know if theres any rules against that sort of stuff so I apologise if there is.

    Bottom line... it can be done but Nokia don't like it at all so any discussion of 'how to' is banned on these official Nokia forums.
    Not illegal but your warranty will definitely evaporate if you go the debrand route.

  • SLES10 SP4/OES2 SP3 32 bit Clean Install - Basic Questions

    Hi everyone.
    I am now an expert in installing the above software and ending up with a server which does not work as we require. Must be something I am doing wrong. Hope someone can spot it.
    Have installed and supported Netware servers for 25 years without major problems. Decided now to move to SLES because Novell say we should and we need Groupwise 12 to replace GroupWise 8.
    The operational environment we are targeting is an 80 user edirectory/NDS based single tree, single context containing two Netware 6.5 SP8 HP Proliant servers running uncomplicated file and print services , NSS volumes, Groupwise 8, DHCP, ifolder, Quickfinder and the like, spread across the two servers. It all works a treat. Client PCs are are all XP Pro with Novell client software.
    The idea would be to replace one of the two Netware servers first with a SLES/OES server and then the second Netware server with a second SLES/OES server and move GroupWise functionality to one of the SLES/OES servers. Ideally users would continue to log on using their eDirectory accounts without noticing anything was going on in the background.
    The test environment we have set up is a 5 user NDS/eDirectory single tree, single context already containing a single Netware 6.5 SP8 Proliant server running file and print, NSS volumes etc and Groupwise 8. Into this tree we are trying to install a 32 bit server with a empty 36 GB SCSI disc running SLES 10 SP4 with OES2 DP3 as an add in, with NSS data volumes.
    Because it only takes a few hours to do we have repeatedly run the SLES 10/OES2 install (probably about 9 times!) with minor variations to see whether we can end up with a properly configured SLES/OES server but there is always one problem or another.
    The major problem we have is how to configure NSS data volumes on the SLES server and how to allow users to be validated against their eDirectory entries and knowing whether the test server is 'good to go'.
    The process we followed for each test install, after checking edirectory was clean and removing any entries placed in the tree by earlier attempts to install the SLES server in the same tree were:
    1. Boot the SLES 10 SP4 32 DVD (downloaded ISO and burnt DVD) and selected Installation.
    2. Followed the prompts on time zone and language etc and selected i386 OES CD (also downloaded ISO and burnt) as the Software Add-In.
    3. Loaded SLES DVD and OES CD as and when requested
    4. At the Partitioning stage we selected the EVMS proposal, and at the Software selection stage selected the base software, file server Role, Documentation, DHCP, eDirectory, iFolder, iPrint, Quickfinder, NSS and LDAP.
    5. Miscellaneous errors would appear or not appear during the eDirectory stage (eg LUM error, or iFolder error) but the eDirectory stage would still seem to complete OK and get ticked.
    6. The system would then reboot and appear to come up OK.
    HOWEVER, we are not convinced we have created a fully working reliable server.
    and
    SPECIFICALLY we are unable to create NSS volumes and we cannot logon users via their eDirectory accounts.
    NSSMU shows a single device sda (33.92 Gb) and three partitions sda1 (70Mb), sda2 (31.91GB), and sda3 (1.94GB). sda2 seems to contain all the 'spare' space on the disk (type Linux LVM) but says there is no spare space to create our NSS partitions.
    iManager cannot see any devices to configure NSS data volumes on the SLES server but it connects OK
    NSSCON status seems to show NSS to be running
    EVMSGUI shows /dev/evms/lvm2/system/ro at 10 Gb, /dev/evms/lvm2/system/sw at 2GB and /dev/evms/sda1 at 70 Mb
    So my questions are:
    Does the above look right?
    Why cannot we get at the spare disk space to set up NSS volumes? Did the EVMS proposal grab it all and if so how do we get it back?
    Did not selecting the EVMS partitioning proposal do everything needed to run NSS?
    [There seems to be some suggestion in the several hundred pages of SLES, OES and NSS Guides, Installation manuals, Configuration manuals etc that we have studied over several days, that we now have to edit a fstab file to make it work properly (Really? in this day and age where clicking on Setup.Exe will configure a fully working Windows server) Is that so? Is there anything else we need to do?]
    How do we get the users to access their NDS accounts to log into SLES and Netware?
    How do we know the server is OK for operaational use and 'works' ?
    HELP!!!

    You are partially correct. Admins who used NSS on NetWare likely did
    install NSS on OES Linux but I suspect they used a separate drive for
    NSS either by installing an additional drive, by carving out a chunk of
    space on their RAID array and assigning it to a separate LUN, or by
    running OES in a VM where storage space on a single disk/array can
    appear as separate drives.

    Semantics!
    IDEAL = Recommended; EVMS != IDEAL; EVMS != Recommended;
    IMO, Novell recognised that they had to provide a way for customers to
    install NSS on a system that only had a single disk and provided this
    procedure as a workaround. By the way, they also support 2-node
    clusters but they aren't recommended either. I have also seen cases
    where a supported configuration was deemed no longer to be supported as
    NTS became aware of additional complications.
    My point (and Simon's and ab/Aaron's) is this: Just because it is
    supported doesn't mean you should do it. If we can agree on this point,
    I'll try to help you to get it working. The last thing I want to do is
    give others the impression that by helping you find a solution we think
    this is a good idea!!!

    Let's look at the default proposal. This is *not* what you have.
    > Table A-1 Default EVMS Proposal for Devices over 20 GB in Size
    >
    > Device Size Type Mount Point
    > /dev/sda1 70.5 MB Ext2 /boot
    > /dev/sda2 14.9 GB Linux LVM
    > /dev/evms/lvm2/system 14.9 GB EVMS lvm2/system
    > /dev/evms/lvm2/system/root 10.0 GB EVMS /
    > /dev/evms/lvm2/system/swap 1.1 GB EVMS swap
    A single (SATA/SAS/SCSI) drive will be known as sda (/dev/sda).
    /dev/sda1 is the first partition. In the example and in your
    configuration this is the /boot partition. In both cases it is 70.5 MB.
    /dev/sda2 is the second partition. The partition uses LVM so logical
    volumes of various sizes can be created within the partition. The total
    size of all logical volumes cannot be larger than the size of the
    partition.
    In the above example:
    /root is 10.0 GB and swap is 1.1 GB. This leaves: 14.9 - (10.0 + 1.1) =
    3.8 GB of additional space within /sda2 which can be used to create
    additional logical volumes. Furthermore sda1 + sda2 use only ~ 15 GB.
    Only 15 GB of the disk has been allocated. The remainder of the disk is
    *unallocated* and *unpartitioned*. Presumably, it was left that way so
    that the space could be used for NSS.
    In your case: sda2 is 31.91 GB
    This does not follow the Default EVMS Proposal for Devices over 20 GB
    in Size. Either YaST did not allocate space according to the default
    proposal or you changed it. Either way, sda2 (+sda3) consume *all* of
    the available disk space. It is no wonder that there is no space
    available for NSS!
    > What do you reckon???
    I reckon that something went wrong along the way. If you did not
    specifically change the default allocation yourself, then consider this
    one example of kinds the things that can happen when one tries to
    exploit seldom used, but supported, features!
    It looks like it is time for yet another installation. This time, make
    sure you leave enough unpartitioned space on the drive for NSS and let
    me know how you make out.

  • This is a strange question but......

    I am in a band called Sound Station (www.soundstationhome.com). We have a new CD that we want to call iPodable.... the question is, will Apple not like that??
    We don't want to get sued or get Apple mad at us.
    I thought that it would be okay because we're actually advirtising the iPod. But some band members are a bit skittish after reading about Apple going after some people for useing the "i" in their products.
    What is everybodies opinion??
    Thanks! replies are most appreciated!
    Power Mac dual G4   Mac OS X (10.3.5)  

    Thanks guys, I'll try that.
    Do you think they'll be positive?
    Personally, I doubt it. Apple is very protective of it's trademarks. Since the title is making a direct reference to "iPod" it can be seen as infringement. I would bet that apple owns the usage rights to that word anyway.
    Still. Contact Apple's PR department. Who knows.

  • WINDOWS 7 64 BITS OEM LICENSE LANGUAGE QUESTION

    Hello to all,
    My company have bought some HP desktops without any OS. This was because we have some OEM licenses for windows 7 professional 64 bits that we bought for a virtualization project that did not suceed and the licenses were never used.
    We want to install those OEM licenses in the desktops but we found that the dvd that came with each license as the OS in Portuguese and we would like to install the OS in english.Since we do not want
    to take any chance and not be 100% legal with Microsoft my first question is if we can use on those desktops the OEM license for windows 7 professional 64 bits Portuguese language that we have but have the desktops with windows 7 professional 64 bits English
    language OS.That takes me to the second question that is if we can use one windows 7 professional 64 bits english dvd to setup the desktops.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Best Rgs,

    Hi,
    As far as I know, in windows 7, only the Ultimate and Enterprise are support multiple language.
    Windows 7 language packs are available for computers that are running Windows 7 Ultimate or Windows 7 Enterprise
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/972813
    And if you want to use OEM license, you need the OEM disk from the manufacturer to install windows.

  • A bit of a general question but...

    This may have nothing to do with my motherboard, but I'm trying to rule out hardware/software causes.  I play Guild Wars and just before I switched my 17" Dell Trinitron for a refurbished 19" NEC FES991-B (ranked very high for CRTs) my screen went blank and the system rebooted.  The only thing I had changed was to substitute two sticks of 1GB of Corsair XMS for the 2 sticks of 512mb I previously had.  I set the timings at the specs of 2-3-3-6 1T and upped the voltage from 2.65 volts to 2.75 volts.  Less than 2.75 volts resulted in no post.
    Now I'm periodically having one of the following problems:
    (1)  Screen freezes with the colors looking strange and only shutting off the PSU allows a reboot.  I e-mailed ATI, who manufactured the card, to ask if it could be the culprit.  I did put an Antec blower fan under the card and turned it on high.
    (2)  The screen goes blank and the speakers emit a repeated popping until I shut off the power and reboot.  No clue.
    (3)  The system reboots.  In this instance, there's usually an error logged in the Event Viewer.  I haven't submitted a code yet to Microsoft because they give you two questions and then charge you--not surprising, it is Microsoft.  My assumption here is that I shut down one two many processes in the Task Manager.  You have to shut off Norton dues to its greed for memory.
    I did MemTest 86 twice for several hours at a time and there are no errors on the RAM.
    I updated to Catalyst 6.6, including the NET framework file.  My bios is the most current version and I updated the driver from my sound card.  The motherboard temps per Core Center never get about 37 degrees for the CPU and 42 for the system during gaming.  The CPU fan is cranked to maximum.  The temps are higher though, since I put 2GB of RAM in the system and tightened the timings.
    FYI for noise Northbridge fans, MSI will send you a new one free of charge if the board is still under warranty and maybe even if it's not.
    Could my motherboard possibly be the culprit here?

    Sisu, You could try to relax the timing on the ram to see if it helps. Also in your sig you state....."BIOS:  Phoenix - AwardBIOS v. 6.00PG" ,FYI that is not your bios version - when you first boot @ the first screen it will say towards the top of screen 7125.xxx - 7125 is the model of mobo [Neo4 series] and the xxx is the revision of bios - 1.0 up to current 1.D revision.
