Enable video file and image file thumbnails WITHOUT enabling thumbnails for other filetypes

Hello. I am new to Mac and pulling my hair out at some of the limited UI options
I am wanting my image-files and video-files to appear in Finder (desktop etc) as thumbnails
However, I DON'T want PDFs, Excel, Word, PowerPoint files to have a preview thumbnail
Basically how things are now either way, it's very cumbersome visually to distinguish between file-types while cruising around my folders with a quick glance.
if thumbnail previews are on for all, its hard to tell at a quick glance which are PDFs, Excel files vs. images
similarly, the little "pdf" or "xlsx" or "docx" text overlay on these previews is so small and non-color coded as to be useless for quick-glance recognition of which filetype
if thumbnails are off, it's impossible to glance at files in a folder and know which image or video each is without wasting my precious miliseconds clicking on them, or trying to actually read truncated filenames
Here are some possible solutions which I hope somebody knows how to do:
globally enable or disable icon previews by filetype (preferred)
stipulate adding overlayed mini icons to certain filetypes
example: if it's a pdf, show the icon preview, but overlayed on that would be the red Adobe pdf icon/logo roughly a quarter of the size of the file icon (like is possible in Windows 7).
this way image and video previews can be seen at a glance, but having a big red or green or blue logo makes for immediate recognition of filetype
(least prefered but could help) ...somehow change the font color and increase the font size of the overlayed "pdf" "xlsx" "doc" "pptx"currently standard on these filetypes while showing icon preview but ALL are miniscule black text no matter which filetype
I'm quite dumbfounded right now that something for better immediate-glance filetype recognition isn't standard, or at least easily Google'able. All I've found is the Either/Other bamboozle.
Would love it to hear of a solution for this. Thanks all.

Put all of your separate flash movies into one move, and then
use flash to
load the movies into a top section of the flash document.
Your site (this page) sounds like it would be best viewed
entirely in Flash
(at least easiest w/o reloading).

Upload and displaying document file and image file with oracle portal

Dear All,
Could anyone please tell me how to displaying document file and image file that I've stored to database (8.1.7) using oracle portal. (I use intermedia data type).
I've tried to follow the instruction given by Oracle LiveDemo, but it came with failure. (the image or document won't show up).
Thanks for support.

Convert video file and image file

Is there a way convert video file to a lot of images?
Or convert a lot of images to video file? Thanks. Kevin.

Believe it or not, you actually can do this is Photoshop quite easily, using the Import -> Video Frames to Layers command. There also is a corresponding Export feature that allows you to Render to Video, which can be used to output an image sequence instead of a video file. I think these features were added in CS3, because that is when they added the Animation functionality, but I'm not certain...

Unable to make changes to a jpg file and then save it without the program trying to change it to a psd [was: What a Pile of Crap!]

Can't even make changes to a jpg file and then save it without the program trying to change it to a psd!!!!! No wonder nobody like Adobe anymore.

Do you mean that PSD comes as a default option or that JPEG is not available no matter what?
Did you add a layer? Did you change the bit depth? Did you add transparency? The JPEG format does not support layers, nor 16-bit images, nor transparency.

the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,

if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.

Thanks in advance.You know one of the most key elements of getting help in programming is to post sections of code, or preferably, working examples and then ask specific questions on things you would like to improve, don't understand, or just doesn't work.
Without some displayed effort on your part, you are going to be fairly hard pressed to get any type of help.

The value should be set for Base image URL and Image file directory

Hi experts
Now customer has the following issue.
XML Publisher concurrent request, using RTF layout template with LOGO, does not generate the LOGO for Excel output.
but in output formats PDF, it is shown normally.
from the debug log, we can found the following error message
======
[051812_054716051][][ERROR] Could not create an image. Set html-image-dir and html-image-base-uri correctly.
======
so I tell the customer to do the following action plan.
1. in XML Publisher Administrator resp > Administration expand the HTML Output section.
2a. enter a value for 'Base image URI'
2b. enter a value for 'Image file directory'
Customer set the value as following and retest this issue,but he found the issue is not solved.
Base image URI: /u01/r12/ebssnd/apps/apps_st/comn/java/classes/oracle/apps/media/XXSLI_SONY_LIFE_LOGO.gif
Image file directory: /u01/r12/ebssnd/apps/apps_st/comn/java/classes/oracle/apps/media
I verified 'Base image URI' and 'Image file directory' settings:
1) Change output type to HTML.
2) Click the Preview.
but the image is correctly displayed on HTML, so I think the issue is caused by user's uncorrectly setting of the base image URL and/or image file directory
but could anyone give me some advice on which value should be set for Base image URL and Image file directory
Regards
shuangfei

First thing to do is to edit the post and use some tags to format the code as it is unreadable and too much!
Read the FAQ (https://forums.oracle.com/forums/help.jspa) to find out how to do this.
Next we need to know the jdev version you are using!
As the code is generated I would first try to generate it again after the db change.

I moved my podcasts and image files to a subfolder - now images won't display in iTunes

I moved my podcasts and image files into a subfolder. The podcasts are working OK, but the image file does not display in iTunes anymore.
The feed is directed through feed burner at http://feeds.feedburner.com/VineyardChurchOfMilan.
The source xml is at https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rl89sk4lkrn9930/Zm0Jb6C1Hj/Podcast (MilanVineyardChurch.xml)
The iTunes link is at https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/vineyard-church-of-milan/id562567379
I added "/Podcast/" to the image path url in the <itunes:image> tag in the xml file and updated the path to the xml file in feedburner, but I did not add the <itunes:new-feed-url> again. Do I need to do this to force the iTunes scripts to reread the whole file again? I thought that if the iTunes scripts are reading the feedburner file that they would pick up path changes to the image when they read the feedburner file. The location of the feedburner file has not changed. Only the location of the source xml and the image have changed. Feedburner is working right, and shows the image.

You have changed the image URL in the 'image' tag but you have not changed it in the 'itunes:image' tag, and that is what is applicable here.
iTunes is looking for an image at
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/89406141/MilanVineyardChurch.png
and not finding one there. When you have amended the tag with the new URL it will probably take some days before the image appears in the Store.
The new image is apparently at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/89406141/Podcast/MilanVineyardChurch_144.png - this is 144x144 which is inadvisably small for iTunes.
Although your episodes, which have Feedproxy URLs, are appearing OK, iTunes does not get on at all well with Dropbox and you might be advised to consider hosting your image on an ordinary web server. However, it's possible that it will work once you've amended things.

Installing Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 using ISOs, Answer Files and Driver files over PXE boot

I have a validation lab that uses Windows 7, 8 and 8.1 on several completely different systems. I am looking for an easy way for the techs to PXE boot from a 2012 Server, select the OS to install and have the OS installed with drivers so when they come back
to the system it has the OS installed with no Bangs in Device Manager.
I have done this in the past (7-8 years ago) and it was fairly easy. Now from what I read it appears I have to create "Image" files for each system type? I hope I am misreading this because that method is counter-productive to create 10 different
images for 10 different systems.
I thought I used WDS and AIK on a 2K3 Server but I don't remember.
Is there a method/tool to install the operating systems as I described above using original OS ISOs, unattended answer files and driver files? WDS or SCCM? AM I misreading how it works?

Consider using newer Windows ADK

Table files and Index files 2GB on Windows 2003 Server SP2 32-bit

I'm new to Oracle and I've ran into the problem where my Table files and Index files are > 2GB. I have an Oracle instance running version 10.2.0.3.0. I have a number of tables file and index files that have a current files size of 1.99GB. My Oracle crashes about three times a week because of a "Write Fault/Failure. I've detemined that the RDBM is trying to write a index or table files > 2GB. When this occurs it crashes.
I've been reading the Oracle knowledge base that it suggest that there is a fix or release of Oracle 10g to resolve this problem. However, I've been unable to locate any fix or release to address my issue. Does such a fix or release exist? How do I address this issue? I'm from the world of MS SQL and IBM DB2 and we don't have this issue. I am running and NTFS files system. Could this be issue be related to an Windows Fix?
Surely Oracle can handel databases > 2GB.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Saving PDF files as image files using the Preview application

I'm converting PDF files into image files for use with OCR software. The problem is that changing the pixels/inch option from 150 to say 300 does not improve the resolution of the resulting image file. E.g. if I save at 150 p/i and then 300p/i both image files are the same size and resolution. I've tried JPG, JPG-2000, TIFF, and GIF. All produce the same fuzzy result. What am I doing wrong?

The schematic file is made up from vector graphics. There are no images embedded in it. For some reason the OCR software (PDF pen) will not recognize the vector drawn characters near the various components. e.g. There may be a resistor with "R5" written next to it. This is the resistors designator. The designator is what I am trying to do the search on. Since PDF pen can perform OCR on scanned (image) documents I thought that turning the PDF schematic into an image file e.g. JPG using Preview would do the trick. Unfortunately as I have already mentioned I can not seem to get Preview to improve the resolution on the resulting image file - the OCR software struggles to recognize any print.

Hi apple users, I am in need of your expertise. I have a mov file and mp4 file which I need converted to DVD. However IDVD quality is terrible and wondering if anyone can help!?
I created project in iMovie then exported it to MP4 and also MOV file at highest definition possible + I added it to iDVD and had a number issues about encoding errors regarding the mp4 file. MOV worked but the quality was terrible.....
MOV file is as follows:

I have a MacBook Pro using the Yosemite system upgrade.
I have updated iDVD and iMovie.
I even bought the iSkysoft app from the mac store and that was terrible too.
PLEASE HELP i am getting desperate and about to launch this macbook into the air
2.66 GHz Intel Core i7
Version 10.10. 2

First of all, Hunt--thanks for responding!
"First, where are you playing the MPEG-2, that you see that jitter?"
On both a MacBook Pro, an Acer laptop and my Mac Tower. I would love to think that it is a problem with the playback system, and that if I merely send the file off to the duplicator they won't have the same problem. Maybe that is the case...I don't know if I have a choice rather than sending it off to see. But it happens in the same spots, in the same way, on all three of the players so I'm a little reluctant to have faith.
"Another thing that can cause jitter in an MPEG-2 is the Bit-Rate - higher the Bit-Rate, the better the quality, but the larger the file. For a DVD, one is limited by the total Bit-Rate (both Audio & Video), but with longer prodcutions, some users choose too low a Bit-Rate. If this is the issue, one would need to go back to the original Project and do a new Export/Share."
Of course, but in the case there is no more 'original project.' It is gone like the wind, stolen along with his computer and backups.
I think I am stuck using one of two files as my master: a DVD he burned where I only see the stutter/vibration/jitter once, or the mpeg2 file where I see it three times. Hopefully, the duplication house can rip if off of one of them and not see the jitter. I know that in audio, my personal filed, you can do a lot to enhance already existing sound--EQ, compression, tape saturation emulation software, etc. I guess I'm hoping there is some kind of analog to the video world that address jitter after a source has been printed--if indeed the source has been printed to be jittery.
Thanks,
Doug

How to design SQL server data file and log file growth

how to design SQL DB data file and log file growth- SQL server 2012
if my data file is having 10 GB sizze and log file is having 5 GB size
what should be the size in MB (not in %) of autogrowth. based on what we have to determine the ideal size of file auto growth.

It's very difficult to give a definitive answer on this. Best principal is to size your database correctly in advance so that you never have to autogrow, of course in reality that isn't always practical.
The setting you use is really dictated by the expected growth in your files. Given that the size is relatively small why not set it to 1gb on the datafile(s) and 512mb on the log file? The important thing is to monitor it on an on-going basis to see if that's
the appropriate amount.
One thing you should do is enable instant file initialization by granting the service account Perform Volume Maintenance tasks in group policy. This will allow the data files to grow quickly when required, details here:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175935%28v=sql.105%29.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
Also, it possible to query the default trace to find autogrowth events, if you wanted you could write an alert/sql job based on this
SELECT
[DatabaseName],
[FileName],
[SPID],
[Duration],
[StartTime],
[EndTime],
CASE [EventClass]
WHEN 92 THEN 'Data'
WHEN 93 THEN 'Log' END
FROM sys.fn_trace_gettable('c:\path\to\trace.trc', DEFAULT)
WHERE
EventClass IN (92,93)
hope that helps

Convert xml file into Image file

Hi,
How to transform xml file into image file?.
i don want to transform the xml file into html file.
Thanks,
nithi

One way I can think of is to create a java.awt.BufferedImage, and use its Graphics object to print out the xml (count the lines first, and space them to your liking). Then if you want to save it to e.g. png or jpg there are free libraries for that, whose names I don't remember at the moment... Dunno why you'd wanna do this though :)

Difference between vmx swap file and vswp file

Hi Guys,
Just want to know the difference between vmx swap file and vswp file. are these same files or different.
regards
VINAY

The confusion is caused because of the name VMX which we take for granted as the .vmx file which stores the configuration file. First of all the VMX here stands for VM eXecutable and not the same as the .vmx file in the virtual machine directory .
when we are running a virtual machine , there comes some basic overheads , ie the processes required to boot the virtual machine , keep it up and running and the agents consume some amount of memory and processing power in addition to the actual load created by the OS application running on the VM.
the VM swap file is there to enable the VM's guest OS to consume less physical memory than the configured memory
the VMX swap file is there to reduce the memory reserved for the VMX process , ie the overhead which we discussed right now .
ie the VM swap is the internal matter of a VM where as the VMX swap file is the responsibility of our VMkernel
hope it helps , correct me if I am wrong or confusing
