BluRay - what you need

Thought I'd put a list of things you need for one's MacPro in order to get BD authoring with output to SL and DL BD media. With the drop in BD Media prices ($4.99/disk), everyone can author HD content to BluRay now using FCS (or iMovie or whatever video post production tool you have).
So here is what you need:
1. Toast 10 Titanium Pro - http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/toast/pro/overview.html
2. LG GGW-H20L Blu-ray burner - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827136137
3. AMS eSATA 5.25" external enclosure - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817332019
4. eSATA cable Extender for MacPro - http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Newer%20Technology/MPQXES2/
Total cost is $455 for a complete solution. This is an external eSATA setup (I did this for maximum BD drive burning performance) but if you prefer USB 2.0 setup just remove item 4 ($25) from the list above (the external enclosure supports USB 2.0 also).
BD-R prices are dropping daily ($4.99) but I use these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817132051
Some things you need to know if you go with eSATA, the drive MUST be turned ON BEFORE you boot into your Mac or it will not be seen. The drive will show up just like any other DVD drive with all the same Eject/Close features, etc.
For those of you going eSATA route, installing the eSATA extender cable is not difficult, but if you're the type of person that doesn't want to touch anything inside your MacPro, then the USB 2.0 route is probably better (aka don't purchase item #4 above).
If you are running CS4, you don't need item #1 (Toast 10). So you could really start doing BD now for as little as $300.
Happy BD folks - 25-50GB of entertainment bliss
Rob.

I've been using the cheap BD-R and not had any coasters yet, but I don't burn at max speed -- the drive will burn at 6X, but the cheap media says 2X so that's what I burn at. I haven't tried Dual layer nor the Re-writeable BD media yet, but great success with single layer.
I don't consider adding the eSATA extender cable that difficult but I've built PCs from scratch before so I have some knowledge. But like I said, if eSATA is a little too much work, the external enclosure I listed also supports USB 2.0. I prefer eSATA because it's a more reliable electrical signal and is not sharing a bus like USB.
I have an older Sony BDP-S300 player that I recently updated the firmware (had to in order to play The Matrix collection BD). No problems with playback, crisp, clean clear -- well, as clear as the source that is

  • "Click here to download the latest map app..." here's what you need to do...

    It looks like they're pushing out the googlemap -> Bing maps update to the palm pre handsets now.  The process they've come up with is kind of flawed.  It's probably best to just go to the app catalog & download the new map app directly.  If you wait for them to push it to you, what happens is that once you start googlemap, instead of going to the map app, it shows a hyperlink text stating "click here to download the latest map app."  Clicking that link will keep you in the googlemap app, but will display a webpage designed for a full-size browser experience.  You will have *no* way to zoom in to see any of the text.  It's all miniscule gibberish. 
    Here's what you need to do.  Everything you need is on the left hand side.  The first field is a drop down letting you pick your country.  Then, there's a field where you enter in the phone number associated with your palm. Then there's a check box that you need to check indicating that you've read whatever gibberish was written on the left side.  then you click the big grey button on the lower left. 
    It sends an sms message to you allowing you to link to the appropriate app download.  like I said...it probably would've saved you effort to just go directly to the app catalog. 
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    As a troubleshooter, I've always been amazed at the number of files people stash on their desktop, number of installed applications, number of installed plugins, etc... Some people try to fill their hard drives to an extreme. The lesson learned here, which I hope to pass on to anyone reading this tip, keep it simple. Only install what you need, and nothing more. Archive away anything you wish to keep for posterity, but don't just let it hang out unless you might need it right away. Backup your data religiously, and remember to keep at least two copies of your data, and preferably at least one off site.
    For every added driver, font, plugin, and widget you might find one that doesn't work well with another, or one that may not have been tested with your operating system. If you don't ensure they are known to work well together, you are building what is idiomatically called a "house of cards" or "jalopy."
    And the more you add, the more that can go wrong. The more you add, the longer you'll spend the time of you or your troubleshooter solving problems. And remember, time itself is money. So be careful, and only add what you need to your system. Practice good judgement. If unsure if something extra is necessary, ask on the board.

  • What you need to know before buying an antenna

    Isn’t it time you upgraded to an antenna? Wait… what? Upgrade to an antenna? Whether or not you’re a cord cutter (meaning you’ve cancelled your monthly television service) you might find that adding an antenna to your entertainment viewing space can be a great upgrade for a variety of reasons. Whatever those reasons are, here’s what you need to know before buying an antenna.
     

    I don't set out to sell anything, I'm an independent writer tasked with writing stuff about things to inform people. We link stuff to help people find things if they want to buy them, but the above isn't a sales pitch, it's info to help people figure out if they want or need something. 
    I didn't know that there was a cabal of antenna dealers who have been promulgating a myth (as a writer: nicely done there) about the nature of NTSC and ATSC; I hadn't ever considered that the antenna market was that large. When I received the request to write an article about antennas I was actually surprised; antennas don't have the support of major telecommunications companies and I sincerely doubt that there's going to be a run on them because of this article. I saw this as a bit of a public service opportunity to talk about a technology that a small segment would be interested in. 
    Anyway, I'm not sure we're going to get much farther on this; yes Best Buy sells antennas, but no, they didn't ask for an ad. They asked for an article that focused on how these antennas work and what to look for. Thank you for adding your insight about ATSC - I think that was actually covered in paragraphy three, but it's nice to see it spelled out more directly.
    Have a nice day - and if you'd like to discuss this directly, please send me a DM on twitter @thetechnogram

  • NSS and LUN expanding - what you need to know before you migrate

    Thought I'd share, since this isn't in any documentation or TID that I
    can find.
    Before you move to OES2 Linux with NSS or multipathing code or EVMS, you
    may want to consider this limitation (IMO, a major limitation if you're
    running an Enterprise).
    If you SAN allows you to grow/expand a LUN (ie, LUN1 was 50 GB and now
    you grow it to 100 GB), you cannot use the new space until you reboot
    the server itself. If you're running NCS, then you need to reboot every
    node that can host the clustered resource before you can expand the NSS
    pool.
    The issue is a bug in the devmapper portion of SLES. ANYTHING that uses
    devmapper will prevent the further layers (ie, multipathing or EVMS)
    from seeing the additional space until you reboot the server.
    Obviously rebooting servers in the middle of the day to add more space
    affects Enterprise services to your users. As does making them wait
    until off-hours before they can write/save any data to the servers. Not
    to mention rebooting multiple nodes in your NCS cluster.
    Novell won't fix this until SLES 11. Even then (ie, if you implement
    OES2 now and can live with the limitation it won't be truly fixed in
    SLES 11 if you're using NSS/EVMS), as the limitation will still be in
    EVMS in SLES 11. Therefore, you'd have to migrate your data to LVM2 (I
    believe that's what Novell is switching to). Yet another major
    disruption for your users.
    So, if you're thinking about OES2 with NSS/EVMS or multipathing, you may
    want to consider the effect this will have to your userbase (ie, how
    many times do you want to migrate your data?)
    In our case, looks like it's goint to be one migration --- to MS
    Windows.

    Hi,
    General rule, if you think rebooting is NOT an option AND you are not using clustering - you're looking for trouble.
    I know I can increase space to my cluster with out kicking my users offline.
    Worked for NSS.
    Worked for OCFS.
    Limitation noted and ignored.

  • What you need to know about British Telecom Total ...

    I don't want to waste time on this forum. I've changed to Virgin - and thank God !
    Here's the text of the last letter I wrote to Customer Service Director, BT plc, Correspondence Centre, Durham, DH98 1BT.  I got the briefest of replies, which dealt with none of the points I raised.
    During April I was engaged in searching for a new flat. There were a number of possible candidates. I phoned British Telecom to ask about the service to the flat I favoured
    Your representative told me that I could expect up to 4 Mbs in this are. That was a lie
    The maximum possible speed is 2 Mbs. My IP Profile has typically been 1,2Mbs and currently you have restricted me to .9 Mbs and then to .78 Mbs
    Given that I was at the start of an 18 month contract with you, I would not have moved to this address had I been told – truthfully – by BT that this area is the worst in Cardiff for Internet access.
    In the same call your representative told me that there would be no problem providing a telephone service to 93 B because the line had very recently been in use and just needed to be switched on at the exchange That was a lie.
    Before moving in, I plugged a handset into the BT socket. There was no 'soft dial tone' which confirms that an inactive line is still connected to the exchange. I notified BT three times, but was assured – in a patronising manner – that then line had been tested and would be connected Friday 30th May. It wasn't of course.
    I notified BT by email. No reply on Saturday, nor the following days. On Tuesday an engineer called me. He told me my phone was working. I said it wasn't. He said he would check and ring me back within a half hour. He did not do so.
    It was not until the following Friday, that an engineer called and the problem was resolved. By that time I had spoken to the landlord and discovered that the BT line had not been in use for some time. Previous tenants had taken the Virgin Media telephone service. The flat had been decorated and the condition of the BT cabling inside the house could not be guaranteed.
    You have therefore deprived me of my telephone/internet service during the first week of May. You have not offered any compensation.
    I now raise a matter which may seem marginal, but which speaks volumes for the way British Telecom manage their business. The BT website offers a 'BT Community Forum'. I registered to use it because I wanted to document my experience for the benefit of other customers. The procedure ends with a message saying that an email with a clickable link will be sent, serving to verify the identity of the person registering. No such email was received. I tried again. No result. I notified BT. No reply.
    After perhaps six emails, a young woman phoned me. She wasted half an hour of my time establishing what I had already said in my emails. She said she would pass the matter on to technicians. No response – of course.
    It is evident that BT does not allow customers to register to use the BT community Forum, for fear that you will receive bad publicity. Given the shoddy manner in which you treat your customers, I imagine that bad publicity is inevitable. The Forum is a sham.
    I now come to the main issue – the provision of an Internet service. I wish once more to make it clear that it is not the slowness of this service that is the principal issue – it is the dishonesty of British Telecom personnel.
    I add that I am being advised by an independent expert who is an ex-BT manager with knowledge of the provision of digital services in Cardiff. You will understand that the press are always interested in 'whistle-blowers'
    If I had been honestly advised by BT that the area I was proposing to move to was poorly served by BT for digital services – and if I was experiencing the best speed that the line could offer me – about 1.5 Mbs real download speed – then I would consider myself bound by my contract with you. I would have moved to this area, knowing what performance I could expect.
    However, as I have outlined above, my decision to move here was largely based on a lie told to me by your representative on the phone – that I could expect up to 4Mbs
    In addition, the line speed has now been restricted to .78 Mbs. In my last letter I said that on the first occasion this 24 hour restriction was imposed I had complained and the peak time restriction was lifted. I had 1.2 Mbs off-peak, and .9 Mbs peak speeds.
    This continued to the end of May. On the 2nd June ther 24 hour restriction was reimposed.
    I have received an email from your customer service manager stating that this is simply because of 'long line length'. Very little technical knowledge is required to know that that statement is nonsense.
    My independent advisor tells me that in fact technicians constantly 'tune' speeds in bad areas. Obviously you try to get as many customers under contract as possible by lying to them about the speeds they will receive, then progressively reduce their line performance in order to accommodate other customers
    It is quite simply an outrage that BT should behave in this fashion, and nothing will please me more than having an opportunity to describe all of this in court.
    I estimate that the damages in time and stress you have caused me amount to one thousand pounds. I look forward to receiving your cheque for that amount.

    Hi sonsenfrancais,
    Welcome to the forum.
    I am sorry to hear you've now moved to another provider following some problems with the installation of your line and broadband speeds, if there's anything you'd like us to look into feel free to drop me an email at [email protected] with your BT account details.
    All the best,

  • Upgrading From XP - What you need to know

    Hi,
    As many of you are aware, support for Windows XP ends on April 8th 2014.
    What does it mean?
    End of support means that Microsoft will no longer issue Windows Updates for XP to maintain the security and integrity of the Operating System.
    Do I Need to Upgrade?
    If you are currently using Windows XP for every day activity then it is recommended to upgrade to a supported version of Windows to ensure you are receiving important security updates for your operating system.
    In addition to updates, you may also experience compatibility issues with new hardware such as a new printer, document scanner, webcam etc. Most vendors will also move away from writing XP compatible drivers.
    I subscribe to security and antivirus software, Do I need to upgrade Windows?
    In short, Yes. While these antivirus and security packages do a good job in most cases, they do not unfortunately provide the relevant necessary security updates to maintain the integrity of the operating system. In fact most antivirus packages are reliant
    on the operating system updates to maintain security.
    Must I Upgrade To Windows 8?
    This is a personal choice. Windows 8 is the latest Microsoft operating system, you can also upgrade to any supported operating system such as Windows Vista, Windows 7 or indeed Windows 8. The only obstacle is to find a vendor that still sells licensing for
    the older products.
    How can I check If My Computer Is Ready For Windows 8
    Windows Upgrade Assistant will assist you to check your computers compatibility with Windows 8
    Here is a summary of the system requirements:
    Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster
    RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)
    Free hard drive space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)
    Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM drive
    I don't know if my computer is 32bit or 64bit
    You will be glad to know that Windows 8 comes with both 32 bit and 64 bit versions.
    To see whether a PC running Windows XP is capable of running a 64-bit version of Windows, do the following:
    Click Start.
    Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
    If "x64 Edition" is listed under System, your processor is capable of running a 64-bit version of Windows.
    If "x86 Edition" is listed then its a 32bit installation
    Where can I get Windows 8?
    Your local computer store should be able to assist you with a copy. Windows 8.1 is the current version.
    You can also use the
    Microsoft compare and decide website to determine which version you require and select the buy now option for online purchase.
    How Do I Install Windows 8?
    It is important to note that upgrading from XP to Windows 8 will not retain your files. You should back up your files prior to upgrading either by using an external hard drive, or using
    Sky Drive which is Free
    Microsoft's Put Together An Upgrade Procedure From XP/Visa to Windows 8
    It is also important to note that installing from DVD will require your system to have a DVD drive or if purchasing online you will need a DVD writer drive to write the installation DVD prior to installation.
    Feel free to ask any questions which are not covered above.
    Regards,

  • Working Remotely? Here's What You Need!

    You probably have a friend, family member, or coworker that has been given the opportunity to work remotely from home full-time with their company. With today’s technology, it’s becoming increasingly more possible for companies to provide such an opportunity. Of course, there are some things that are needed to work remotely as an integrated part of the company, and a few others that would make your tasks far easier.

  • Efficiency - How to load what you need.

    Hello,
    I am pondering the scenario of using object oriented programming and filling a report efficiently. I am hoping someone could provide insight or direct me to existing patterns.
    Let's say I want to create a report of all employees. Great, my first thought is have a Employee class and Employee Container. Load all the employee objects and all the n attributes. Loop through to display.
    What about if I only wanted a select few of the employees in the report. I could loop through all as above looking for the correct criteria, however, I would much rather let the database do that. So what is a good way to specify criteria to load the employees.
    Another is what if I only want 2 of the n attributes. How can I get around loading all the attributes of the Employee? Keeping in mind that I don't want to know anything about the database at the business object level.
    This is really only part of the problem. I'm sure everyone goes through it so there must be best practices and/or patterns to help.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    Note, I didn't actually run this in a database to verify that it worked. Only verification I did was to print out on the console what the SQL statement was.
    bash-2.03$ java Example
    SELECT * person WHERE name = bob AND age >= 21
    (You may want to modify it to put a ';' at the end of the query if necessary.)

            String getOperator();
            String construct(String value);
            int hashCode();
            boolean equals(Object o);
    }Very flexible implementation of an attribute--should be able to apply to whatever you want.
    package db;
    public class GenericAttribute implements Attribute {
            private String field;
            private String operator;
            public GenericAttribute(String field) {
                    this(field, "=");
            public GenericAttribute(String field, String operator) {
                    this.field = field;
                    this.operator = operator;
            public String getField() {

                    return this.operator;
            public String construct(String value) {
                    return this.field + " " + this.operator + " " + value;
            public int hashCode() {
                    return field.hashCode() + operator.hashCode();

                            return (this.field.equals(attrib.getField()) && this.operator.equals(attrib.getOperator()));
                    return false;
    }Pieces all of the parts together.

  • New 9630 owners basics to what you need

    Welcome here your 9630 your has 256k of internal RAM, So you'll want a micro SD card. Of between 4GB and 16GB. Have your Taxi stop at Radio Shack, or Office Depot, or Fryes, or Office Max or Best Buy, Walmart etc. We stopped at fryes in Reno and I was out in 4 minutes with a 4GB for $17 plus tax. Excellent. 2. The number lock on Black Berry is different than all other companies. Its "alt" "Up arrow aA" keys. Then you'll have Cap Lock.

    Thanks.  On my 9630 my "alt" plus right up arrow "aA" key engages the number lock (and other symbols above each key), and "alt" plus left up arrow "aA" key engages the Cap lock.

  • Have you gotten what you need to run the AVG Secure Search Toolbar?

    When your notice first popped up asking me if I wanted to upgrade, it stated with it that it did not yet have the ability to run the AVG Secure Search Toolbar. So I have been waiting to download the new version until you have that feature.

    Sorry but you will be waiting a long time for FF to have that feature! It's an AVG problem not Firefox. You don't say which version of AVG you are using but if you upgrade to AVG 2012 your problem is solved.

  • What you need to know concerning Playbook, Bridge, Q20, Verizon, AT&T and T-Mobile

    I'm on Bold 9900 and Bridge works flawlessly with my Playbook at 4G speed.  Problem is, I am on T-Mobile and the service is very spotty where I live. They sent me the signal boosters but they don't help. I'm thinking on moving back to AT&T or Verizon and getting the Q20 when it comes out, BUT I don't want to lose ability to bridge to my Playbook. I love my playbook!  Any advice - most appreciated?  Thanks so much!   Michaux.
