Dolby Digital Auto Setting Doesn't Work w/4.4.2?

I have a bunch of old movies that were recorded in stereo, pre-Dolby, and of course, a bunch of newer in Dolby Digital. After upgrading to Apple TV iOS 4.4.2 yesterday, I now find that the Settings/Audio & Video/Dolby Digital/Auto setting no longer works.
I just started a new iTunes downloaded movie with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound and noticed that it was playing in PCM stereo-only mode for some reason. I then tried a couple of other older iTunes downloaded movies with 5.1 sound, and they all were playing in the same old PCM stereo mode, as well. To get the new movie to play in 5.1 sound, I had to manually change the above Dolby Digital setting to ON.
A similar issue applies to older movies in pre-Dolby stereo. If the above setting is set to Dolby Digital ON, those older movies switch from normal stereo to Dolby Digital 1.0/Center channel only sound, so I have to either switch the Dolby Digital setting to OFF or back to Auto, which defaults to PCM stereo for everything now.
Is anyone else experiencing this change? The Auto function worked perfectly for me before this upgrade.
I'm using an Apple TV 2 with an optical connection to my audio amplifier. The movie is streaming over my wired gigabit Ethernet home network from my iMac.

Seems to be an issue for some of us since 4.4; see other thread.

Any body know this?

I know. Same issue here. When I'm not recording but have the video camera on, the autofocus works fine. As soon as I tap the record button and recording starts, the focus is locked until I tap on the screen to focus. I haven't used the camera all that much because of this problem.

Auto Completion Doesn't Work in Eclipse 3.1

Hello
I am working with Eclipse 3.1 in Linux Envirnment.
I had update my plugin for FreeMaker and Beanshell.
I had imported my desired classes, still class names are not coming automatically.
I am unable to write program on Eclipse.
reply soon
Thanking you,

This has nothing to do with JSP, also nothing with "auto completion doesn't work".
You need to add the classes to the 'build path' of the project, then you can import them in your code.

Dolby Digital Audo Setting -- Need a setting that just works!

Can anyone provide info about the dolby digital (DD) AUTO setting - and what it is supposed to accomplish?
Auto (the default) limits output to stereo via HDMI, and 2 channel PCM via the optical output. That just doesn't seem like much of an "automatic" setting to me.
When set ON - content encoded with DD does get properly sent out the optical cable but at the expense of the stereo feed to the HDMI port. And, this can be really confusing to a casual or novice user, especially if the user had been watching content with just the TV speakers active. If a new movie with DD encoding starts, the user gets no audio at all. And there are times when audio output from the TV is fine, and the power from the audio receiver is not needed.
I believe Apple should enable the stereo feed via HDMI - AND - output a digital feed via the optical cable. It doesn't matter if this is the ON or the AUTO setting, but one of these should "just work".
I'm really not looking forward to having to toggle this setting depending on the content I'm viewing.
I'd appreciate any helpful info - words of wisdom - even blank stares!
Thanks in advance
JD

Ok I think I understand how it works now. Auto won't send 5.1 if one of the components connected (like a TV) does not support 5.1. So for instance if you connect your HDTV with HDMI and use optical to a 5.1 receiver, you'll get stereo on both because the TV does not support 5.1. Auto on the Apple TV basically uses the lowest common denominator that allows both to output the same thing at the same time.
However, if you switch it to On in that setup, only the optical cable will get sound and it will be in 5.1 because it's the only output connected to a 5.1 capable device, your receiver.
However, the optimal connection method is to just connect your Apple TV with HDMI directly to a receiver with HDMI inputs. That way, Auto allows the 5.1 sound over the HDMI cable to your receiver and the receiver sends the video to the TV over its HDMI output cable.

FLV Skin Auto Hide Doesn't Work

Hi Guys
I've created a flash video (in Flash Pro 8) and given it a
skin of ClearOverPlaySeekMute.swf. However, the Skin Auto Hide is
not working when viewed in a browser.
I have set the parameter of SkinAutoHide to true, which works
when you Preview as Flash, but as soon as it's exported and viewed
in a browser the skin does not hide. I can get it to occasionally
in Firefox, if I click and drag out of the video, but never in IE.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Matt

I have the same problem with IE 6 & 7! In Firefox it
works as it should, but in IE not at all.
Can't find anything about that in any forum.. Often the same
question, but nowhere an answer...
I thought about scripting a function to hide the skin after a
certain period of time,
but flvPlayback.skin._visible doens't work and the function
flvPlayback.skinHide doesn't exist....
Anyone an idea??? It's really urgent!

IPod to TV using digital camera cable, doesn't work. Help

Hey
I've got the iPod 5th Generation 30Gb video. I ripped one of my DVDs onto my computer and then used videora to convert the DVD for use on the ipod. I used iTunes to stick the movie on my iPod.
The movie plays fine on the ipod, but when I go to connect the iPod to my LG Flatron TV it doesn't work. I am using a cable that came with my digital camera, it only has one black and one yellow rca plug. If I use it with the camera, the black is for video, and the yellow for audio. But on the ipod, I don't get anything. I have checked that the send to TV settings are On.
I've tried changing the format on the output from PAL to NTSC, nothing.
One thing I am not sure about is why my cable has got a little box thingy surrounding part of the wire, inside the box thingy are magnets, anyone know why these are here? Could this be what is causing it not to work. What should I do?
Thanks

Here is some info for the pinout for the iPod.

You need to find the pinout of the camera cable you have.
Probably be easier to get get an AV cable with a 3.5mm plug to (whatever fits into your TV) cable.
Usually, you simply have to swap the Red and the Yellow for it to work properly.

G510 Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio doesnt work driver problem with Windows 8.1

Hi,
my Lenovo G510 has Windows 8.1 64-bit.
In the system menue of Hardware and Sound I can see two entries:
1) Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio
2) Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio (32-bit)
Clicking on the first entry a control panel appears. Does this mean that Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio is always running in the backround? There is no entry in the systray.
Clicking on the second entry this error message appears:
Your current installed version is 7.3.2.2 of the Dolby Digital Plus audio driver. The software needs the driver version 7.5.1.1. Installe a correct combination of driver and software.
What to do with this? I searched for a solution and drivers but couldn´t find anything.
Thanks for your help.
Solved!

Dolby Digital Plus Application Equalizer not working

Having Lenovo G50 Series notebook with dolby digital plus audio software. Application fails to perform if we select manual settings for graphic equalizer when in custom mode 1 or 2. if we scrolls one or other strip upwards,as soon as i release mouse hold, it drops down.. y is it so., Pic attached

It is literally THE worst interface I've ever come across. Basically, you have to have audio playing before the bars 'come alive'. Then it'll register your input. You can pause the audio and the bars will stay alive for a few seconds so you can change the setting without them bouncing around like crazy.However, even then, changing a bar with no music playing still jumps it up and down for no good reason. Such an aweful UI.It's like some kid stumbled onto an algoritim to react to user input for the first time and thought, "Oh dat looks sick yo, lemme turn it up to 10". If you're lucky and can revert to Dolby Home Theater V4 (the older version), then that interface has proper controls.

My Norton Internet Security, Passwrd and user name auto complete doesn't work in Firefox 4

Since updating to Firefox 4 my user name and password auto complete form Norton Internet security doesn't work.

Symantec need to update their Firefox add-ons so that they are compatible with Firefox 4. They have indicated that for Norton 360 they plan to release an update to Norton 360 to support Firefox 4 in early May - http://us.norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20100720113635EN&ln=en_US
I do not know about the time scale for updates for other Norton products. Pending the update by Symantec, if you want to use the Norton add-ons you will need to downgrade to Firefox 3.6.
To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.
For details of how to find your profile folder see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Profiles

Auto-scrolling doesn't work when JFrame is not visible

Hi, I have auto-scrolling implemented for my JTextPane that sits in JScrollPane - which lives in JInternalFrame. It works as excepted - as long as my application's JFrame is visible. When the JFrame becomes invisible, auto-scrolling simply doesn't work anymore.
I've overcame this by scrolling down in "windowShown", but it's ugly because the user can visually see the scroll down when using this workaround (it jumps).
I guess this is Swing's optimization, but I would really like to overcome it in someway. But it seems I'm not enough a swing hacker to do it.
One thing to note is thtat, the auto-scrolling works fine when the JInternalFrame is NOT visible, but frame is.
I've tried to override the isShowing-method of JInternalFrame, with no luck.
Here's my scrolling method:
public static void scrollDown(JScrollPane scroll) {
          JViewport port = scroll.getViewport();
          Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, port.getViewSize().height, 1, 1);
          port.scrollRectToVisible(rect);
          JScrollBar bar = scroll.getVerticalScrollBar();
          bar.setValue(bar.getMaximum() - bar.getModel().getExtent());
     }Anyone have ideas?

At some point I had really hard time getting the auto-scrolling to work, as I got these weird little bumps after scrolling down.
Adding scrollBar.setValue() seemed to 'just fix it'. It actually seems to be superfluous now.
The scrolling is already wrapped in SwingUtilities.invokeLater() - in conjuction with printing text into the JTextPane and it works OK.
I had some wrong info in the first post, the viewport actually does get scrolled down even when the JFrame is not visible. And by visible I mean JFrame.setVisible(false) - my application has a minimize-to-tray feature, which hides the JFrame.
So I think the problem is 'just' a repainting problem. When the frame is shown, the previous scroll location is first displayed, and then a repaint is triggered that causes the 'jump down'.
I'm not still sure how to fix it though.
