Channel 592

When flipping through the channels in NY, channel 592 (Program Information Not Available) shows up. It does not show up in the guide. Any ideas on what this channel will become (MSG HD?!) ...?

I can almost guarantee it won't be MSG, but thanks for the heads up. We will probably know by tomorrow.

New DVR Issues (First Run, Channel Switching, etc.)

I've spent the last 30 minutes trying to find answers through the search with no luck, so sorry if I missed something.
I recently switched to FIOS from RCN cable in New York. I've gone through trying to setup my DVR and am running into issues and was hoping for some answers.
1. I setup two programs to record at 8PM, I was watching another channel at the time and only half paying attention. Around 8:02 I noticed a message had popped up asking if I would like to switch channels to start recording. I was expecting it to force it to switch like my old DVR, but in this case it didn't switch and I missed the first two minutes of one of the shows. I typically leave my DVR on all day and just turn off the TV, this dual show handling will cause issues with that if I forget to turn off the DVR. Is there a setting I can change that will force the DVR to choose one of the recording channels?
2. I setup all my recordings for "First Run" because I only want to see the new episodes. One show I setup was The Daily Show on comedy central, which is shown weeknights at 11pm and repeated 3-4 times throughout the day. My scheduled recordings is showing all these as planned recordings even though only the 11pm show is really "new". Most of the shows I've setup are once a week so they aren't a problem, but this seems like it will quickly fill my DVR. Any fixes?
Thanks for the help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I came from RCN about a year ago. Fios is different in several ways, not all of them desirable. Here are several ways to get--and fix--unwanted recordings from a series recording setup.
Some general principles.
Saving changes. When you originally create a series with options, or if you go back to edit the options for an existing series, You MUST save the Series Options changes. Pretty much everywhere else in the user interface, when you change an option, the change takes effect immediately--but not in Series Options. Look at the Series Options window. Look at the far right side. There is a vertical "Save" bar, which you must navigate to and click OK on to actually save your changes. Exiting the Series Options window without having first saved your changes loses all your attempted changes--immediately.
Default Series Options. This is accessed from [Menu]--DVR--Settings--Default Series Options. This will bring up the series options that will automatically be applied to the creation of a NEW series. The options for every previously created series will not be affected by a subsequent modification of the Default Series Options. You should set these options to the way you would like them to be for the majority of series recordings that you are likely to create. Be sure to SAVE your changes. This is what you will get when you select "Create Series Recording" from the Guide. When creating a new series recording where you think that you may want options different from the default, select "Create Series with Options" instead. Series Options can always be changed for any individual series set up later--but not for all series at once.
Non-series recordings. With Fios you have no directly available options for these. With RCN and most other DVRs, you can change the start and end times for individual episodes, including individual episodes that are also in a series. With Fios, your workarounds are to create a series with options for a single program, then delete the series later; change the series options if the program is already in a series, then undo the changes you made to the series options later; or schedule recordings of the preceding and/or following shows as needed.
And now, to the unwanted repeats.
First, make sure your series options for the specific series in question--and not just the series default options--include "First Run Only". If not, fix that and SAVE. Then check you results by viewing the current options using the Series Manager app under the DVR menu.
Second, and most annoying, the Guide can have repeat programs on your channel tagged as "New". It happens. Set the series option "Air Time" to "Selected Time". To make this work correctly, you must have set up the original series recording after selecting the program in the Guide at the exact time of a first run showing (11pm, in your case), and not on a repeat entry in the Guide. Then, even it The Daily Show is tagged as New for repeat showings, these will be ignored.
Third, another channel may air reruns of the program in your series recording, and the first showing of a rerun episode on the other channel may be tagged as "New". These can be ignored in your series if you set the series option "Channel" to "Selected Channel". Related to this, if there is both an SD and HD channel broadcasting you series program, you will record them both if the series option "Duplicates" is set to "Yes". However, when the Channel option is set to "Selected Channel", the Duplicates Option is always effectively "No", regardless of what shows up on the options screen.
As for you missing two minutes, I have sereral instances in which two programs start recording at the same time. To the best of my recollection, whenever the warning message has appeared, ignoring it has not caused a loss of recording time. You might have an older software version. Newest is v.1.8. Look at Menu--Settings--System Info. Or, I might not have noticed the loss of minutes. I regularly see up to a minute of previous programming at the start of a recording, or a few missing seconds at the beginning or end of a recording. There are a lot of possibilities for that, but the DVR clock being incorrect is not one of them. With RCN, the DVR clocks occasionally drifted off by as much as a minute and a half.

New .TV (pets, recipe, etc.) and Viacom channels not in zap2it or Tivo guides

So, it's been about a month since the new .tv channels came out and two days since the Viacom HD channels were introduced. And zap2it.com, Tivo, etc. all still don't list ANY of the new channels in their programming guides.
I've opened cases with Tivo. With Zap2it. With Verizon. Everyone points fingers saying it's the other's fault.
In the meantime, for the .TV channels that got added a while back, if you go to zap2it, or Tivo, you get "loor633" for channel name and "to be announced" for guide info for pets.tv. You get "loor599" for Cars.tv. You get "loor674" for MYDestination.tv. Etc.
And for the Viacom channels, you also get nothing. Just blank space with "to be announced" for programming info.
From what I understand, Verizon needs to tell Tribune that their channel lineup has changed. And Tribune, Zap2it and Tivo all claim that Verizon hasn't done that. Verizon, of course, is silent on the matter and the "fiber solutions center" says there is nothing they can do right now and that channel info for the .tv and Verizon channels might get added to online guides in a few MONTHS!?!?!?!?!?!?
Why does this seem to be a problem with Verizon's lineup and no one else's? When I had Dish, Zap2it would have updated listings within 2 hours of new channel additions. When I had Charter, both Zap2it and Tivo had channel guide info for new channels usually the day BEFORE the channel was added. But Verizon doesn't seem to provide Tribune with new channel info / guide data at all.
Having had FIOS for less than two months, I'm not happy. I'm almost certain the goal is for Verizon to get me to dump my lifetime Tivo service and instead pay them $15.99 for their DVR. But trust me -- I'd rather go back to Charter first.

I do not understand why you folks are blaming Verizon for this. Please give me a moment to explain my theory.
First of all, I have been for a long time a very dissatisfied user of the FiOS Guide data. So dissatisfied that late last year I sent an email to Verizon's CEO expressing my dissatisfaction, and providing examples and pointers to various forum threads discussing the problem. I received maybe 4 or 5 phone calls about the issue, no resolution, but I was told the procedure for the FiOS Guide was this:
Each channel (say ESPN, whatever) develops the data, and sends it to FYI Television of Grand Prairie, TX (in the DFW area). FYI gathers the schedule info from all of the channel providers and once a day sends that data to Verizon. Verizon then inputs the data to the Guide and bingo, we see it, good or bad (lots and lots of bad IMO). I have no way to know if this is really the process, but this is the way it was explained and it makes sense to me.
Now, lets talk about one of the other guide providers for the Tivo or whatever. It seems to me that a very similar process would have to take place: channel to guide data collector to actual guide data provider (maybe the last two are one and the same?).
Now, where would Verizon be in this process for the other guide data providers? Seems to me nowhere, it should be the responsibility of the channel to notify the data provider that the channel is now on FiOS, what the channel name and number is, etc.
I am sure you will disagree with me, but where am I wrong? It seems to me you should be complaining to the channel providers, not Verizon.

Channel Guide Update - Questions & Concerns

In speaking with customer support this morning, it would appear that my only recourse for letting Verizon know that I don’t like the new Channel Guide is to make a post on the forums and this seems like the most applicable one.
To start, there was absolutely nothing wrong with the old channel guide and I can’t figure out what the new guide does better aside from possibly displaying 2 additional channels per page…at the cost of incorporating a GIANT active dvr UI (user interface), an awful color scheme and a PiP window in the channel guide that seems to have had its size reduced to about ¼ of the previous one.
Does anyone know if there’s a way to change the display back to the old style or at least something close to it? I only had 15 minutes to play around with it this morning before work, but the rest of the new display styles are even worse than the standard one and I was hoping there was another options section that I didn’t notice as far as the overall display goes.
For those of you who use the verizon DVR services, that display has also changed and I can only assume that it’s geared towards displaying commercials while we use the dvr functions b/c there’s no other reason for it to take up so much room on the screen at the moment.
The previous dvr display used to consist of a small horizontal bar across the bottom of the screen that displayed the basic channel info (channel #, name of the show, run time etc etc), showed you the speed at which it was rewinding or fast forwarding and the point in the show that you were currently watching. With the update, the DVR window is MASSIVE and it has to be taking up close to 1/3 of the screen when you hit the FF, RW or play button. However, even with the new giant dvr display, there’s nothing being utilized in the actual display and I have a feeling it’s going to be used for corporate commercials or simply advertising verizon on-demand programming.
The new channel guide is clearly slower than the old one too and as I said earlier, I just didn’t see anything that warranted the huge makeover and I have trouble understanding how this new version of the channel guide could’ve possibly been beta tested by anyone and wound up in this state.
I love the verizon internet speed and I’ve come to find that their customer service is excellent, but this change was possibly enough to make me drop the full package I currently utilize and simply maintain the internet going forward for the sake of accessing websites like hulu & netflix for my television needs.

Agreed. The new guide format is slow, the text is difficult to read, but worst of all, you can only see a few channels at
a time when scrolling. With hundreds of channels, you need to be able to glance at many channel listings quickly
on one screen, before quickly scrolling to the next screen.
I agree this is so bad that I will have to look at cable or satellite options if the old channel guide is not restored, at least
as an option. It was great! Why fix what isn't broken? Or more to the point, why break something that was an asset
to the service?
If FIOS tries to hold me to whatever the term of my contract period and penalizes me for dropping the service, my
position would be that the service provided by FIOS with the new channel guide is materially and adversely different from
what I signed up for, and this unilateral change on the part of Verizon voids my obligations under the deal. But all
I really want is the option to return to the prior channel guide format.

Channel 0 deselection and JCSystem.makeTransientByteArray memory issues

Hi,
I am writing an applet that should among other things generate HMAC-SHA1 value. However, JCDK 3.02 Classic edition RI does not support Signature.ALG_HMAC_SHA1. That is why I had to make my own HMAC-SHA1 based on MessageDigest.getInstance(MessageDigest.ALG_SHA,false)The problem is that when I transfer data to my HMAC-SHA1 function I create byte [] workbuffer = JCSystem.makeTransientByteArray((short)(blockLength + datalength), JCSystem.CLEAR_ON_DESELECT); inside of my HMAC-SHA1 function. I cannot do memory allocation in constructor since I don't know the data length in advance. This function works fine only the first time, on the second run the apllet runs out of memory.
From my MIDlet I call myConnection.close() to close the connection and deselect the applet before passing new data to applet for HMAC generation. But according to Security and Trust Services APIs for Java 2 Platform "the application selected on channel 0 is not deselected at the time the connection is closed but remains selected until a new connection is established on channel 0". So, the next time I open connection to my applet and pass data to HMAC-SHA1 I get throw_error(SYSTEMEXCEPT_NO_TRANSIENT_SPACE) from cref in the console window.
Is there anything I can do with this memory problem? How can I eventually deselect the applet to free the memory?
//Aleksandr

Argh! Poor card :-)
NEVER allocate memory outside of the constructor or initialization methods (called once then disabled)! Forget JavaCard 3, use 2.2 and remember you have 2KB RAM in all cards of these world. The 2MB-RAM/16MB-Flash cards simulated in the javacard SDK for netbeans exists only in the imagination of this spec creators.
Allocate a fixed size buffer and process data in blocks. The update() method is here for this purpose.
This is not java desktop, memory is more than scarce!
transient memory allocated with the TRANSIENT_DESELECT flag is allocated for every logical channels to allow implementing multi selectable applets with independent contexts.
transient memory allocated with the TRANSIENT_RESET flag is allocated once for every channels.

hi elan
i think you need to write an abap program and schedule it..
abap program will call this HTTP link as The URL has no dependency on where it is called.

How do I find the digitizer for a channel?

I am trying to make a VI that is generic and is configured via a single config file. The file currently lists all the physical channels along with other things like the name and red/yellow limits for each channel. Currently, the sample rate is hard-coded in the VI but that should be in the config file too. The issue is that there can be only one sample rate for a given DAC card, so it doesn't make sense (to me) to add a rate column for each channel in the config file (I think it would be misleading to the operator). Instead, I'd like to create a task list that gives the name, DAC card, sample rate, and other parameters for each task. Then I should be able to figure out which channel is on which DAC by looking at the physical channel name ("Dev1/ai0"). The problem is that SCXI conditioner cards show up in the device list just like PXI ADC cards. The user could have named them anything in MAX, so I can't tell which ones are DAC cards. Is there a property node trait for channels that can tell me what its digitizer card is? I've looked around and can't see anything appropriate.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have attached a simple program that can extract the device details on a PC. The code only currently tells you what type of device you are querying. You can easily extend it to find out which device is the digitizer(M series/E Series). I have saved it in LV 8. Not sure which version you are using.

Looking for a simple app that can output 8 channels simultaneously.

Hello esteemed audio community.
I have to create a little effect for an upcoming party. For this I have created the following audio tracks in Garage Band:
- 4 separate audio channels (stereo front and stereo rear)
- one mono combination of these four tracks (to drive a Light organ gizmo - makes the light flicker with the audio)
- and finally two separate tracks with simple 1Khz pulses to trigger relays for a fog machine.
I now need to be able to play these 7 tracks simultaneously and send them to different amplifiers and relays. So I need two things: 1) a software that can play them and 2) a hardware interface that can take these 7 channels out of the computer and convert them to line levels analog signals.
I thought this would be pretty straight forward but it turns out that it is not, unless you want to throw $$$ at it which I really can't afford.
Software wise, unfortunately, GB can only output 2 audio channel at one time. So I need to find a little app that can offers multitrack output. Ideally it would some shareware thing that would allow me to load in up to 8 tracks saved from GB, adjust their individual levels and then output them.
Second issue is hardware. Here I have found the M-Audio 410 firewire. This box will take up to 10 audio "returns" and output them to analog. They can be found used for about $150. So I think this might work.
Budget for this setup is very limited, hopefully no more than $150. Quality does not have to be very high although a good bass response will be important for the effect. I don't need any recording. Only playback.
Would any one have any suggestion on how to best accomplish this? If this software does not exist, how complicated would it be to write it? Would Applescript be useful for this? All it needs to do is read 8 audio files (2 minutes max), allow me to adjust their level and output all 8 at the same time.
Thank you very much for any help.
Bo

Ah. I'm surprised, but there we go.
Have a look here ...

(courtesy of googling 'OSX free multitrack recording software')
Didn't have time to do more than skim, but 'Ardour' looked promising. Protools is the only one I've used, the full product is one of the industry standards, but the free 'lite' version listed here seems to be limited to 2 in/out as well.
Referring to your original post, I'd think trying to write or 'script' something would be a nightmare ... synchronisation of streams within something like Applescript would be a major issue, quite apart from anything else.

Would like to know which /beta/ I have from beta channel

About Firefox says (today) I have version 25.0, which is what it said when I had an update waiting. I then accepted the update, so I should have a version that is different than I had before, but About Firefox didn't change what it showed me.
At one time the About Firefox dialog did show us beta channel people which beta they had.
I looked at the "Troubleshooter" data posted with this question and I can't see how YOU (Firefox developer) can tell which beta I have.

I have a different version than I had before, so it's not as simple as "you still have [the beta of] Version 25". My question is similar to, "I had 25 dollars and some change, and then I found a penny, how much money do I have" and someone tells me I still have 25 dollars. It's not wrong, but it's not what I want to know. I want more precision.

Using a variable in communication channel

Hi,
I have a lot of Communication Channels looking for files in the same directory. This directory's path will be changed soon and so I assume I'll have to change all my Communication Channels.
I was wondering whether there was a means of using a variable for the Source Directory in order to just have to change its value where it is defined and not every where it is used...
Regards
Yann

Hi,
Is this a sender file adapter? or a receiver file adapter?
You can make a change / make the receiver file adapter's directory dynamic by setting the value during runtime in the mapping.
Use this blog and the code in the blog to acheive this,
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14
Sender File adapter, I dont think this is possible.

Error in creation of Lead by Channel Manager

Hi All,
I created Channel Manger Portal for creation of Lead using blview=MKT_LEAD_M,BSP Application=CRM_BSP_FRAME and CRM Application=CRMD_BUS2000108.
It is working fine for search only.when i click on create button then no process is going and i am getting the following error message on the top of page:
"Erorr:Please select at least one entry to execute the function".
Please help me
kushal

Hi,
As the error message implies - you are trying to insert a record into a table with duplicate keys to a record that already exists.
You need to look further into the termination to determine which table it was failing on and then figure out why it was trying to insert a duplicate key entry. Find out if it is a standard or custom table and see if there is any custom code in user-exits or BADI's that might be causing it.
Thanks.
Ashok.

Need inputs regarding the dvd drive on primary ide channel.

Specs:
Motherboard: MSI P35 Neo3 (MS-7935 1.0)
CPU: Intel Core2 Duo E6550
Memory: Team Elite DDR2800 (2x1GB Dual Channel)
Hard drive: Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 500GB 32MB Cache (SATA)
Optical drive: LG GSA-H55L (IDE only) Firmware version 1.02

LPCIO: Fintek F71882F
BIOS: AMI V1.1 (11/07/2007)
Hello,
Almost all new motherboards today only have a primary ide channel and the rest are SATA.
I need inputs regarding the dvd drive which is shown in device manager as located on the primary ide channel while the hard drive is located on the secondary channel. Because I would like to update the dvd drive to the latest firmware (version 1.06; to be able to recognize more blank media) but the LG site recommends that the drive (dvd) be located on the secondary ide channel.
I already tried to uninstall every channel from the device manager but all would still be the same after reboot, dvd drive on primary, hard drive on secondary.
Current ide mode in BIOS is set to AHCI+IDE mode, DMA modes are fine (UDMA4 for dvd, UDMA5 for hard drive), boot sequence (1st=HD, 2nd=DVD, 3rd=Floppy drive)
Tried switching to IDE mode only in BIOS but would not detect the optical drive. Never tried RAID+IDE mode since I only have a single hard drive.
I'm not sure but if I try to update the firmware, it might instead try to update the hard drive's firmware instead of the optical drive and make the hard drive unusable.
I would like to know if anybody with this same situation was able to successfully update the optical drive's firmware or is there some way to place the optical drive on the secondary ide channel and the hard drive on primary for me to follow and replicate the process.
Thank you for any replies.

Thanks sir NovJoe for the reply.
Just received the solution from another forum where I posted the same problem.
They said that the flash program for the firmware will detect the drive on its own and would not flash other devices except the optical drive itself. So its pretty safe, and I can confirm this since I just flashed my ODD a little over a while ago and everything went fine. No errors.
Though I'm speaking for the brand of ODD I own and may be different for other brands so take precautions as well. It may be different for the others.

Logical Channels and Opening An Application

Hello,
Upon sending an APDU to a Java Card (a GEM card) to open a channel, it works fine. But when I try to select an application on that new logical channel which is in the secured state, it always gives back an error, but I can select that same application from the basic channel. Do I need to do something else besides simply opening the new logical channel to let it be able to select applications in the secured state?
Thanks,
Mizax

Hello,
Thanks for your response.
Yes I'm sure the card supports multiple logical channels, I've checked the historical bytes, and am able to open the number of logical channels the historical bytes say I should.
I can select other applications on the new logical channel and send commands to them, that works fine. When selecting a secured application, it fails with error code. In particular, I'm trying to select the card manage application, and that fails. Although this shouldn't be necessary, I make sure the basic channel doesn't have the card manager selected also:
Log:
Warm Reset Card
Open Logical Channel 1
Command: 00 70 00 01
Response: 90 00
Select some other App on the Basic Channel:
Command: 00 A4 04 00 0F A0 00 00 00 18 50 21 00 00 00 00 00 57 49 42
Response: 90 00
Select card manager on Channel 1:
Command: 01 A4 04 00 07 A0 00 00 00 18 43 4D
Response: 6E 00
To sum up: Open a new logical channel, select some other app on the basic channel, try to select the card manager on the new logical channel, it fails. If I then reselect the card manager on the basic channel, it works fine. I can select other non-secured apps on the new logical channel, and that works fine too. In any of the cases I mention, I ensure that only one channel is trying to select an app, so that I'm not worrying about the issue of whether an app is multi-selectable.
I've been wrestling and googling this for hours with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mizax

Logical channels and secureChannel.resetSecurity();

Hi,
1- an external entity A selects an applet APP on logical channel 0 and establishes a secure channel.
2- another external entiry B selects the same applet on channel 1 without establishing a secure channel.
3- B exchanges a few commands and responses with the APP.
4- The execution of the commands in (3) leads to calling secureChannel.resetSecurity() within APP.
5- secureChannel.resetSecurity() returns the error code 6985 which means conditions of use not satisfied.
It looks like the secure channel that was established when the APP was selected through the logical channel 0, cannot be reset while the APP is selected on a different logical channel.
Has anyone faced this situation before? Any ideas how to reset the secure channel under the described circumstances?
Thanks in advance,
Hugo

Hi,
Logical channel 0 is the basic channel. Have you tried having all host applications on a logical channel other than 0?
As a rule, we only ever used GP secure channel to secure card issuance/updates or to secure updating the main transport key on the card (the private key had to be encrypted). These actions only ever had one channel to the card open. All other communication was done through a secure channel that was handled by the applet (AES based) that did not rely on the card platform keys so this wasn't an issue in our case.
Cheers,
Shane
