Does mirroring output two resolutions simultaneously or one?

Hello everyone,
First time Mac Book Pro user here. I've been doing some research on the whole "turning your internal display off and keeping your external on" for heat and performance issues. While I know there isn't anything conclusive yet to do this, I was just wondering if when you mirror instead ofe extend (say to a TBD), is the GPU still driving two resolutions? Two 2560x1440s ? or Just one and doing just that: Mirroring it. Is there any performance gain from doing mirroring instead of extending?
Thanks!

Hey,
I believe it's possible. I've read about it a while ago I believe. You need to patch your Xserver I think. A good thing would to ask a question on the Xorg-list on this if you use Xorg, Xfree86, ... There is an irc-channel for xorg I believe.
I would first advice you to do the above thing(s) ...
Maybe I found a reference ...
Here is an extract from it:
There is a HOWTO at tldp.org. Look for XFree local multi-user.
The ruby (backstreet ruby for 2.4.x kernels) kernel patch allows interception of events from multiple keyboards to be bound to specific virtual terminals. The latest XFree and Xorg Xservers are now including this ability with the isolateDevice config file option. Older X servers need to be additionally patched. Basically, you craft an X config file to bind specific mice, graphics cards and monitors to their own screen layouts. Of course there is more to it than this. One accepted method is to alter the hotplug subsystem to automatically create your added devices, then you supply symlinks and binding instructions to the device addresses with config files. Keyboards are another matter. They are handled through the ruby patch. Using a 2.6.x kernel, the controlling terminal is assigned the use of virtual terminals 1-17. The next x screen is number 18, etc. The second keyboard, VT1, is automatically bound to the second x screen, VT18. This is of course oversimplified, and yes I've read that this method should work with up to 16 layouts!
What the multiseat package does I don't know. I will try it out this weekend. As far I have researched, it makes it easier to find and configure the several config files you need. If some one knows, please post.

  • Why does it read two lines instead of one

    Why does the console ignore the first response, makes a new line, and then it reads from that new line....
    Console.WriteLine("Hello, welcome to the world of Kroz. My name is SaIDOS.\nAnd no, I'm not a brother of GlaDOS. Please type in your name.");
    Console.Write("\nPlease input a statement: ");
    string PlayerName = Console.ReadLine();
    if (Console.ReadLine() == "Derrick")
    Console.WriteLine("Well, " + PlayerName + " , Are you ready for an epic adveture");
    string Answer = Console.ReadLine();
    if (affirmative.Contains(Answer.ToLower()))
    Console.WriteLine("You died");
    Console.ReadLine();
    else if(negative.Contains(Answer.ToLower()))
    Console.WriteLine("You Died");
    Console.ReadLine();

    Here:
    if (Console.ReadLine() == "Derrick")
    You are telling the program to read another line, try changing it to:
    if (PlayerName == "Derrick")
    Additionally, anywhere that you aren't actually reading input, such as in:
    Console.WriteLine("Well, " + PlayerName + " , Are you ready for an epic adveture");
    string Answer = Console.ReadLine();
    You should probably using ReadKey, such as:
    Console.WriteLine("Well, " + PlayerName + " , Are you ready for an epic adveture");
    string Answer = Console.ReadKey();
    It would be greatly appreciated if you would mark any helpful entries as helpful and if the entry answers your question, please mark it with the Answer link.

  • How can I combine two video files into one finished file?

    I'm making a video of a guitar player.  I'm using two cameras simultaneously.  One gives the overall wide shot, and the other is zoomed in on his hands.  Both cameras run at the same time.  I would like to use the wide shot as the main video, and occasionally fade in clips from the zoomed in shot to show details of his playing.  I can manually line up both files so they are synchronized.  How do I cut a clip out of the main (wide) shot, leave the gap there, and insert a clip from the closeup?  I'm putting the two video files on two of the video timelines and synchronizing them that way.
    Any suggestions on how to proceed?

    The effect you are looking for is 'Picture in Picture'. If you want the gap to be there for the duration of the timeline add some 'black video' - from the Tasks Pane> New Item - on the video track above the main track. Resize / position it to where you wish it to be.
    Then with your second clip (now on video track 3)
    Do the same sizing / positioning for it.
    split video and audio and delete or disable the audio.
    Cut it where you want the various start/ends of the fade to be.
    Delete, or just disable (right-click) the unnecessary segments.
    Apply fade in / out to the remaining segments.
    [EDIT]
    Also check out the 'Presets' in Video Effects. There are a variety of PiP presets that may do what you need.

  • Simultaneous access from two virtual mashines on one framegrabber

    Hello,
    is it possiblie to get access from two virtual mashines on one framegrabber. I want only get the information from Cam-A  and transfer it to virtual mashine A. For Cam B and virtual mashine B is it similar.
    My problem is that I have to measurements but they have to run at they same time and I want to use the Vision Builder AI for this. If it's right that that  the Vision Builder is able to do only one measurement at the same time.
    Another solution could be, to export the vbai to .vi's and import it to LabVIEW, coundn't be?
    best regards
    phil
     

    As far as I know, virtual machines cannot access plugin frame grabbers. Are you using GigE cameras (which should work in VMs since they can use GigE ports of PC), or CameraLink cameras (which shouldn't work in VMs since they require plugin frame grabbers)? As far as processing images from two different cameras at the same time in VBAI, You can process images that were acquired at the same time in VBAI, but the processing steps don't execute simultaneously. Do you just need the acquisition to be in parallel or the processing as well. Why does the processing need to happen in parallel (is it for timing/perfromance)? If the inspection is running on windows, you can have two instances of VBAI running at the same time and each instance can process a different camera, but it may be more challenging to coordinate the results of the two different inspections if they need to be combined at some point. If you are acquiring on Windows, you could also use the API in LabVIEW to control the two inspections that are happening in parallel and coordinate the results. See the example of how to use the API here:

    Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
    However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
    What we found from out testing:
    - The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
    - The file can be closed and  Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
    - Also, until the  Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file. 
    Example Scenario:
    - User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
    - Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
    - User 1 saves his file and closes it - but  Dreamweaver is still open.
    - User 2 also saves his file and leaves  Dreamweaver  open.
    - The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
    - If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
    - Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
    Other information:
    - Files are opened directly from the server
    - Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
    - Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
    - The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
    - The users are usually working on the files all day
    - It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
    It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
    Anyone know if this is a known issue?
    Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?

    Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

  • Send one message to two receivers simultanously

    Hi,gurus:
    I wanna know how can we send one message to two receivers simultanously.
    Our scenario is file to file,and we add two receivers in receiver determinations,and leave the conditions empty.
    But it seems the message was only sent to one receivers.
    Any ideas?

    Hi...
    You should be able to send same file to two different receivers. For that you need to create :
    1. Two communication channels for two receivers
    2. Add two receivers in the Receiver Determination ( under Configure Receivers)
    3. Two interface determination for two receivers
    4. Two receiver Agreements having two different receiver CC.
    5. Only one sender agreement.
    If you have created all the above objects, you should be able to send a file to two receivers.
    Thanks,

  • 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 ...
    http://jam.hitsquad.com/vocal/about2136.html
    (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.

  • Two message mapping in one interface mapping

    hi,
    my scenario is idoc to file and i am using java mapping(not UDF) for some fields as well as graphical for rest of the fields.
    I want to add these two mapping program in one interface mapping to generate final target, but the problem is it is not creating final file structure, but when i add only one mapping(either one) it works fine. 
    I'm doing this because I have to add value mapping, after the value i get through java mapping or is it possible to use static value mapping within the java mapping itself.
    Please help.....

    Hi,
    In addition to what Moorthy said you first test mapping individually and see if it works fine. While testing you make sure you are giving the right input, I mean if Java mapping comes second you need to give the output XML of the Graphical mapping or vice versa.
    Hope in Java mapping is done properly and you are returning the expected structure as output. For example if you are using Java mapping as the first one your ouput should be exaclty like that of source structure with the values filled.

  • Two DAQ-boards in one PC problems.

    Hi!
    I'm trying to use a PCI-MIO-16E-4 and a PCI-6031E in one PC
    (win98,P3,733 Mhz,384MB RAM) using NI-DAQ 6.7 and Matlab 5.3
    (Data Acquisition Toolbox 1.0.1).
    The boards are trigged by the same external trigger but have different
    samplerates. I use the 16E-4 as both output (dual DMA) and input
    (single DMA) and the 6031E as input (single DMA) only.
    I can create objects for both boards in the same Matlab program without
    problems but when the output starts it is cut off or doesn't output anything
    at all. I've tried to issue the start-command for the different boards at
    different times and it seems like the start-commmand for the 6031E is
    the problem.
    What's wrong? Is Matlab incapable of handling two boards
    simultaneously
    ? Or is it some kind of system limitaton?
    I would appreciate it if you would like to send your answers to my email
    since I'm not visiting this newsgroup very often.
    Thanks in advance!

    Joacim,
    I would assume that this is a MatLab problem. Although I don't have a whole lot of MatLab experience, I have run simultaneous boards (similar to the ones you have) at the same time with both input and output on both, and have had no problems. Therefore, I don't believe that this is a hardware problem.

  • Question about executing two loops simultaneously

    Hi,
    I have a problem executing two loops 'simultaneously'.
    Let me first describe what I want:
    I have one loop that contineously acquires data (at 1kHz) and sends feedback
    signals (to the valves at a rate of 50 Hz). On the other hand there's a high
    frequency acquirement (at at least 250 kHz) for a duration of, let say, up
    to 10 secs.
    The high frequency acquirement is not contineous, but it should be executed
    at a time that I want to. It should be executed multiple times also.
    What I have used is a notifier to execute the other loop at a time that I
    want. It's ok when I run the other loop for only 0.5 seconds, but when I do
    it for 10 sec. then the other control loop doens't function anymore. The
    valves stay at the
    same opening position because it doesn't get any feedback
    from this loop.
    How can I fix this problem ?
    Many thanks,
    Chang-Kwon Kang

    Mark,
