FCP4.5HD caputure live with Canopus...workflow

Here's the skinny,
We do a live show that is presented is multiple formats:
-Webcast live (media player)
-Internal archived DVDs (iDVD/DVDSP)
-Website archived streaming (real player)
-Public Access broadcast (from DVD)
-Hoping to elevate to PBS distribution (currently shooting MiniDV, wanting to bump up to DVCPro)
Currently the workflow includes live cut w/Videonics MXProDV switcher that goes analog out to webcast server, and records analog out to MiniDV tape (Sony GV-D900 NTSC Walkman).
I then capture recorded MiniDV tape into FCP4.5HD on our Dual 2.5 G5...internal 250GB HD...FCP is on the int. 250GB system drive. I then recut, title and cleanup the show for archiving and Public Access distribution via DVD, as well as export QTConversion to RealMedia for web distribution.
I'd like to save 'ingest time' by including a 'live capture' into FCP using capture now through a Canopus A/D converter. (have not been successful getting FCP to recognize the FW output of the Videonics, so would need to go analog into FCP)
Questions...
1. Is the Canopus ADVC 110 going to give me what I need to handle the analog out of Videonics to capture into FCP on an external Maxtor 1Touch 300 GB drive?
2. Should I also incorporate an additional PCI/FW card/bus to make certain I don't drop frames?
3. Would I be better off replacing my 250Gb internal 'media' drive with a larger internal...say 500Gb?...and then...
4. Will FCP be able to live capture directly to that (still using the Canopus, but without needing the second FW bus)
5. Would I need a better Canopus or AJA card to handle this workflow?
6. If/when we can bump up to DVCPro as our tape format, how would that affect any of the above mentioned hardware considerations?
This and other forums has brought me this far, just hoping for real world practical experience/advice as to best workflow possible.
I've suggested we get a much better Deck and could use other 'improvements' as well, but we are a non-profit, and funds are limited...however, all suggestions are welcome.
System specs listed below. (though I had to drop our QT version to 6.5 from 7 to do RealPlayer conversions, and am waiting on a new Pro key)
Thanks,
Kevan

  • Still Images in FCP4.5HD

    I'm hoping someone knows the answer to this one. I'm editing a very large wedding with lots of stills and scanned images. All the stills from "consumer" cameras and my scanned ones are perfect in FCP4.5HD. However, the photographer has provided me with her images on 9 CD's. They are TIF files about 18MB each. In the Browser, they look great, but when I drop them into the Timeline, the edges are very jaggy and the quality is awful. I've used Photoshop Elements 3.0 to save them as JPEG's, which are 3.6MB,and the Save for Web which makes them even smaller and then import them into FCP. They look just as bad! Any ideas?
    Thanks, Henrik

    Reducing an 18mb tiff to a 3.6mb jpeg is meaningless as you have only reduced the STORED size. Unless you reduce the pixel dimensions, the image is just as large to FCP and, in addition by going to jpeg, you have reduced the image quality. Exporting for the web will further squeeze the quality in the interest of download speed.
    Open up the original TIF images in Photoshop and bring down the pixel dimensions from the 3000 x 2250 (or whatever they are) to something closer to what you need for realistic pans/zooms - perhaps 2x the DV screen resolution. Save As to preserve the orignials but do save them as TIFs or PSDs.
    Oh, and pay no attention to dpi, it is meaningless in video. Pay attention to PIXELS.
    good luck.

    Don't downgrade OS X without first erasing the drive. You cannot restore a Time Machine backup of Lion directly on top of a later version of OS X such as Mountain Lion or Mavericks.
    When you "Restore from a Time Machine Backup.", the drive will be erased for you, but yes, won't hurt to:
    Boot into Recovery (hold ⌘R on boot)
    Utility->Disk Utility->Erase Macintosh HD, then Repair Macintosh HD
    Quit Disk Utility
    Then Select: Restore from a Time Machine Backup.

    -New Owner Info Option display
    -Face Unlock works great on Live with walkman.
    -Awesome new themes. Xperia NXT Style! Although they are only wallpapers, not the live ones seen on 2012 devices. My favorite is Tourquoise (Did I spell that right?)
    -The Performance Assistant will help you disable some of the apps that you dont need.
    -There it is! Official Android 4.0.4. Ice Cream Sandwich. OH YEAHHHH!!!
    -If you repeatedly tap on the Android Version Menu. This little Primitive Droid will surprise you. HEHE!!
    -Oh, and there's also a new logo when you start up your phone : SONY ONLY not Sony Ericsson, and in its ever-so-recognizable font style. =P
    -The Sony Ericsson Liquid Logo has also been changed to Walkman, with a bubbly and quirky animation.
    -Ill try to post screenies if I can.
    -Greatly Improved Android Browser. Seriously, It's WAAAAYYY smoother than the one in GB.
    -The Browser runs smoother than GB.
    -Websites with heavy flash content load smoothly. =D
    -Saved Pages Option to view pages offline.
    - Only Android provides true multitasking capabilities.
    - Hold the Home Button and you will be taken to this new recent/running apps tab. Swipe to the right and that app is closed. =D!!!
    -Widget Preview.
    - A NEW Gallery aside from the Xperia Gallery. The new gallery provides edit options. Like Picsart or Instagram or Adobe Photoshop Express. So, if you want to save some precious memory, stick with the gallery editing options =D
    -HD playback still smooth as ever. I don't know what the fuss is all about. =P
    -Images look fine as they did in gingebread. It really depends on shooting situations.
    -Captured 720p HD Videos doesn't lag for me. Play back is smooth. Same as in gingerbread.
    -Maybe, People are just not used to the new interface, but with a little bit of tinkering, you should get used to it in no time. =P
    -The New Camera Interface. It now includes a dedicated on screen camera button.
    -Captured Photos Quality are the same as in Gingerbread.
    -Captured 720p HD Videos run as smooth as in Gingerbread.
    - The New YouTube App interface.
    - The Lockscreen Music Player
    - There was a review about not seeing the clock due to the music player. Duhhh, you can see it at the upper right corner. =P
    - I love how the album art and the album name also appears. If you are like me who converts songs from youtube to mp3. A little app called Tune Wiki can help you edit its tags so you can enable infinity view. =D
    -The New Dial Pad, which provides Smart Dialing.
    -About the lagginess issue. It takes about 2-3 seconds to start. It depends on how many entries you have in your call log.
    -There's a workaround on it though, access it through Contacts.
    - RAM usage feels the same for me. Good Job on this one Sony. =D
    - I was really worried about RAM ever since I read Sony's article about GB and ICS. They did well on optimizing this one.
    - My screenshot is not the best there is since I was syncing Facebook inside Xperia. But, normally it has about 180mb used and 160mb free.
    - New APPS installed. Some apps like Wisepilot for Xperia can now be moved to SD card, thereby freeing more phone memory.
    - My New Homescreen. It retains the very convenient four corner bubbles.
    - 5 Widget Panes
    - A New Google Search Widget
    - Walkman Player. I was expecting the music player from the NXT series. Hehe, but I guess this will have to do. =D
    - I've never seen the refresh music library option even in the GB walkman player. Through experience, everytime I add a music file it gets added in real time. No refresh required...
    - Oh, and also... I think the speaker is a tad bit louder than before. Like 20% louder. I noted no distortions
    - The orange lights work as usual.
    - Still no customizable equalizer. This is a walkman phone. It has to have superb music customization capabilities. =P
    - Battery usage for me remains the same like in GB.
    -Monster Use/Heavy Gaming : 4 hours (HD games cracked for HVGA screens i.e. Asphalt 6 Adrenaline, Need for Speed, Shadowgun, Dead Space)  Although I doubt you could play that long due to the screen size and the cramps you may get from playing. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome anyone? Haha.
    -Internet Browsing : 6-8 hours
    -Video Playback using Stock Player and YouTube App : 6-8 hours
    -Video Playback using MX player : 4-6 hours (I use it for my .avi files)
    - I use Easy Battery Saver to Optimize battery performance.
    In Super Mode it can last up to 24-36 hours with only texts and calls which I think is pretty impressive. I can go on 16 hour hospital shifts without worying about charging my phone.
    In Normal Mode it can last 8-10 hours.
    -It really depends on how you use your phone. I strongly believe it greatly varies with every user.
    - Don't believe posts that say it doesn't run as smooth as GB. IT RUNS AS SMOOTH AS GINGERBREAD. EVEN BETTER. =P
    - Sleeker new user interface.
    - All of my apps and games still run smoothly on ICS. I'll keep searching for bugs.
    - The ROBOTO font is awesome.
    - I find the interface more intuitive and streamlined than GB.
    - Lots of new features implemented. i.e. Smart Dialing, Face Unlock, Performance Assistant
    - Icons have been remodeled.
    - I also love how fluid it is now when it switches screen orientation. =D!!
    - No bugs for me whatsoever.
    - I miss the quirkiness of the GB user interface. Like the transparency of the messaging app. But I guess, I have to move on, change is for the better.
    - A SOLID AND STABLE UPGRADE. NOW MY XPERIA LIVE IS COMPLETE.
    Problems:
    -Yes, the LED SMS notification doesn't work. But all other LEDs work. i.e. Yahoo Messenger, Incoming Calls, Twitter. I guess they may have overlooked this one. It's the only problem that I see. I find it livable still. Greater good for the greater number of people =P
    -THANKS TO SONY!!! A huge step on the right direction.
    -KIMOZAVE - NOOBIE SMARTPHONE USER

  • I'll just live with the terrible battery life on my iPhone 5....

    IMHO, each new iPhone has worse battery life than the one before.  I've come to expect this.  They claim the battery is better, but in real life use, this is simply not the case.  I've given up trying to figure it out, I'll bring it into the apple store tomorrow, maybe they'll even swap out the phone for me, but I doubt it will make a difference.  The battery is plain awful, but I'm never far away from a charger, whether it's in my car or office.  I've grown used to it at this point.  Nor am I going to do one of the 10,000 suggestions I keep seeing on here and other forums.  Restore as new?  No thanks, it's just the way I want it, I don't want to spend 6 hours loading everything again.  Turn off location services and apps?  What's the point of offering  a feature if you can't just leave it on and use it?  I have everything (well, almost everything) on.  Wifi, brightness all the way up, location services, it's all on.  Why?  I like using them.  That's why I bought the phone in the first place!
    So, the bottom line is: I'll live with it.  I'll live with having to charge it a few times a day, I'll live with the fact that it'll never be perfect.  I will go to the genius bar just for the heck of it, there are issues with iCloud not backing up, and wifi not as strong as the 4S, and sometimes the usage and standby times are identical, so perhaps mine is defective, but I doubt it'll make much difference.  Sure, 6.1, or 6.0.1 will be released soon to address these issues, as I'm convinced this is mostly a software issue, but at this point I'm done trying to figure this out.

    Hello there, EdisonGurraj.
    The following Knowledge Base article should provide you with assistance in what steps to take to troubleshoot your iPhone's battery life:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Speifically:
    Battery life seems short
    Click ( www.apple.com/batteries/iphone.html) for tips on how to prolong iPhone's battery life.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    Connect iPhone to iTunes and restore iPhone.
    If the screen shows a low-battery image, the battery is low on power and needs to charge for up to ten minutes before you can use it.
    When charging iPhone, make sure to leave it charging until it is fully charged. You'll know the battery is fully charged when the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen looks like this .
    Note: When charging using a computer, don't connect iPhone to a keyboard. Also, the computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode. If iPhone is connected to a computer that's not turned on or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPhone battery may drain.
    Cheers,

  • Performance with PowerShell Workflow intiation

    I have a workflow I want to initiate with a PowerShell script (all items in a given view), and it gets stuck on "Starting" for 3 minutes or more.  When I run the workflow manually it kicks off right away (and also completes within a second
    or two).  Since the workflow is getting initiated, why does it stay on "Starting" and complain of heavy workload?  How do I get a PowerShell initiation to match the performance of the manual initiation?
    Background:  We are running SharePoint 2013 and our site collection is in 2010 compatibility mode.  We have separate App and web front end servers.  I am running the powershell script on the WFE server.  The powershell
    script is very basic. 
    Test #1
    Manual Initiation:  Starts right away (within a second), and completes with Status "Completed"
    PowerShell Initiation:  Get Status "Starting" when PowerShell script is run with below message
    "Note: Due to heavy load, the latest workflow operation has been queued. It will attempt to resume at a later time."
    After 2-3 minutes, workflow completes with Status "Completed"  (so I know my simple script works)
    The above test was just with a workflow with a single step - "Stop the workflow and log 'workflow complete.'" 
    Test #2
    I tried doing a similar test with a workflow with a single user lookup and email action, and the workflow doesn't even run... you get Status "Canceled" with no errors after several minutes of the Status being "Starting" like in the test
    above
    Manual Initiation:  Starts right away (within a second), and completes with Status "Completed"
    PowerShell Initiation:  Get Status "Starting" when PowerShell script is run with below message
    "Note: Due to heavy load, the latest workflow operation has been queued. It will attempt to resume at a later time."
    After 2-6 minutes, workflow ends with Status "Canceled" and no errors

    Hi  ,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot initiation Workflow using PowerShell.
    For troubleshooting your issue, firstly please add your site into Local intranet sites. Then you can try to  increase Throttle Size and Time Out. For more information, please have a look at the blog:
    http://sharepointwriting.blogspot.com/2014/01/sharepoint-workflow-due-to-heavy-load.html
    Also please provide detail error message of ULS log  to determine the exact cause of the error?
    For SharePoint 2013, by default, ULS log is at      
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS

  • Sharepoint 2010, InfoPath 2010 with Custom Workflow. Error Message: InfoPath cannot submit the form. An error occured while form was submitted...

    I have created an InfoPath form that submits to a Sharepoint library with custom workflow attached. The workflow is initiated when the user submits the form. An email is sent to the supervisor who clicks the "Encoded Absolute URL" and approved
    the form via the emailed form. Then, based on certain criteria the form is either emailed to the VP or the workflow is complete. The VP is sent an email and clicks the "Encoded Absolute URL" and sumbits the form via the emailed form. This is
    how I would like it to work. The reality is, the form submits and is emailed to the supervisor and the supervisor is able to approve but when the form is sumbitted I get an error. The error is "InfoPath cannot submit the form. An error occured while
    this form was being submitted. The form cannot be submitted to the following location: <URL> The file <URL> is checked out for editing by <me> The operation completed successfully." The operation did not complete successfully and it
    is not checked out. I have read in previous posts that the file is locked. Since I am in the testing faze of the project there is no one else using the form. I have waited 24 hours and the lock has not been released. Please help!!! My deadline is growing short.

    I ran into your post while having a similar issue.  I don't have a 'full' fix for you, but I noticed at least in our case if you made sure you opened the Infopath form through the browser instead of the client Infopath program (use the drop-down menu
    and open in browser) the error doesn't occur.  Hope that helps some....

  • How to connect to Xbox Live with the Actiontek GT704-WGB wireless router

    If the title got you here, then you are probably a Verizon DSL customer who is trying to connect your Xbox to Xbox Live with the Actiontek GT704-WGB wireless router and are getting nothing but errors saying, "your NAT is set too high", or, "Your MTU setting is too low", etc.  Well, after many calls to Xbox support, Actiontek support, and Verizon support, I finally came up with the solution myself.
    All that is needed is a little techie know-how about router settings and you'll do just fine!  However, if you are uncomfortable with doing it yourself (and it is really really easy to do!) then you can call Verizon support and have a tech support rep remotely conntect to your PC and make the changes for you: however, you have to speak with someone in advanced tech support and to do that you have to agree to a 1 year support contract to the tune of $14.95 per month in order for them to do it!  Scam???  You be the judge!
    So, here are the steps to take to get it working and by the way, YOU CAN NOT GET THE XBOX TO CONNECT TO THIS ROUTER WIRELESSLY!!  YOU MUST CONNECT YOUR XBOX TO THE ROUTER WITH AN ETHERNET CABLE IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK!!!  If you don't heed this warning, you will unfortunatly go through all the steps below, only to find that you get the same errors but, ethernet is faster than wireless so it's better!....right?.....right?   (hears crickets chirping)....right?  Oh well, I tried!  Also, you must have your Xbox on in order to change the router settings (which you'll see why later) Anyway, here's the steps:
    1) On your PC, open a browser window and type in the address bar:  192.168.1.1 and press enter.
    2) You will then see the interface on which you will make changes to the router's settings.  If at any time you are prompted for a username and password (which should happen right after you press enter) the defaults are: username: admin password: password.  If you have changed these, enter what you changed them to.
    3)Click on the icon on the top labelled "Advanced Setup"
    4)In the left section, click "WAN IP Address"
    5)At the warning screen, click "yes"
    6)Scroll down until you see "MTU setting" and enter 1370.  NOTElease don't be tempted to either enter 1500 or leaving it at 1500 (which is the default) because you might know that 1500 is the maximum at which this can be set which is TOO HIGH AND WILL NOT WORK!  Trust me and enter 1370 and then click on "apply"
    7)Click on the top icon labelled "Security"
    8)In the left column, click on "applications".  This is where we are going to open the 3 ports that Xbox Live uses to communicate with your Xbox.
    9)In the drop down box labelled "PC Name" select "Xbox 360". This is why you had to have your console on and connected cuz if you didn't, it would not show up on the drop down list!
    10)Under "category" click on the bubble next to "user"
    11)Click on "New" which is one of the blue buttons near the bottom.
    12)As for the rule name, I entered "Xbox" but you can put whatever you want but I'd use that so you know it's the ports you opened for the console.
    13)For protocol, select TCP. (Yes you will also open the same ports for UDP but for some reason if you select TCP.UDP instead of doing them seperatly it doesn't work.....I dunno why!?
    14)For all 3 "Port start", "Port End", and "Port Map Start" put the # 80.
    15)Click "apply"
    16)Now, select UDP and put the same port # 80 and again click "apply"
    17)Repeat steps 13 through 16 except with the numbers 3074 and 53, clicking apply after each one.  What you should have now on the bottom are a list of all the ports you opened, one TCP and one UDP for each number totalling 6 entries.
    18)Click "back" to return to the Applications screen.
    19)If you have to, select Xbox 360 for PC name, and click the bubble next to "user" and you'll now see the entry called "Xbox" or whatever you called it.
    20)Click that entry to highlight it and then click the blue "add" button to the left and then click "apply" at the bottom.
    21)Close the browser screen and turn off your PC and Xbox and any other hardware connected to the router.
    22)Turn the router off and unplug it and wait about 5 minutes.  It can take this long for any residual current in the router to dissapate and for the NAT table to clear itself.
    23)Turn on the router and wait for the internet light to come on green meaning the router has booted and has an internet connection.
    24)Turn on the Xbox AND ONLY THE XBOX!
    25)There is no need to go into network setting as when the Xbox is connected by ethernet, it automatically configures and connects intself.  You can, however go into network settings and perform a connection test but this to is not necessary.
    You now should be able to connect to Xbox Live!  If not, you've done something wrong and must either go through all the steps again or let Verizon do it for you (for a fee that is).

    I followed jtktlw's instructions to the letter.  Problem was I had already enabled UPnP before doing so.  Afterward I disabled UPnP and rebooted....no change.  I reset the MTU to 1500...boom, it works.  Seems for me all I needed was to open the right ports to get it to work.

  • Go Live With Oracle On Linux

    Hi all,
    I thought you guys might be interested to know that this stuff
    is used out there...
    I work for a Government property management company ( Housing
    New Zealand ), and they were looking at downsizing their systems
    infrastructure. A subset of the business was picked to pilot a
    downsized system.
    We ported from :
    "thin client" : Citrix Winframe, Developer 2000, HPUX , Oracle
    7.3
    to a :
    client server : Win95, Developer 2000, RedHat 6.0, Oracle 8.0.5SE
    Instead of running 80 users on :
    80 P300 PCs, Winframe Client +
    1 4xP200 Winframe/NT, Developer 2000 +
    1 HP-PA/Risc, HPUX ,Oracle 7.3.3
    We are running 5 users on :
    5 P300 PC Win95, Developer 2000 +
    1 P300 PC RedHat 6.0, Oracle 8.0.5, samba
    ( Obviously this was the pilot subset ! )
    Although this represents a "step backwards" in deployment
    architecture ( 3 tier - 2 tier ), it represented a decrease in
    cost infrastructure per user ( No Winframe/NT License, No
    expensive Proprietry hardware, only 1 ( Cheap ) propritary o/s (
    Win95 ).
    We went live with this beast on 1 Aug.
    The Redhat box has been rebooted once since them - not by us (
    Power outage at the site ).
    The server is just idling with 5 concurrent connections.
    Oracle 8.0.5/Redhat is rock solid as far as we can tell !
    ( with the right patches ....
    for those interested they are

    Hi Mark,
    I am also running Oracle 8.0.5 in my RD6.0 machine.
    I installed Developer2000 into my win98 machine.
    I tried to login using the developer2000 into the
    oracle running under linux but connection cannot
    go through. I don't know the reason to this. Though
    I can use the SQL*Plus to connect to this database
    from win98, can you figure out what is wrong with
    my setup?
    Thanks,
    -Paul

  • How can I remove an account and apps from another user from my Ipod. My nephew used to live with me and everytime I sync my Ipod his stuff is added to mine. I have no way to contact him for his password.

    I need to know how to remove an iTunes account associated with my computer. My nephew used to live with me but has moved out. Everytime I sync my iPod touch his stuff is added to my device. I have no way to contact him to get his password. How can I make this go away. He listened to music that is very offensive to me and I dont want it in my library or playlists. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you in advance,
    Shelly

    You can use computer iTunes to help.
    Connect your iPod Touch to Computer's iTunes
    In iTunes, select your iPod Touch under DEVICES (left pane).
    On right pane select Music at the top.
    Now you can de-select the music/playlist or anything you don't want and click Sync button bottom right.
    You can do the above for Apps, Books, etc.
    You can of course, de-authorize the computer in iTunes menu Store.
    Note: That will make everything using his AppleID inaccessible.

  • How do I transfer files from a flash drive to iMac. I get a folder with "no name" which I can live with but I can't find any way to make the actual physical transfer of the files to the iMac.

    How do I transfer files from a flash drive to my new iMac?  I get a folder with "no name" that I can live with but I can't find a way to transfer the flass drive files to to iMac hard drive.

    What happens when you try to drag & drop the files?

  • 23" ACD with pink in upper right quarter of screen, live with it?

    I've got a week 28 ACD that arrived as a portion of my not-yet-shipping Mac Pro order. From what I understand this is the new spec version (it certainly is very bright with vivid colors).
    I've been using it for about a week and can't shake the notion that towards the upper right quarter of the screen the color is slightly more pink/magenta than the rest of the display. Frankly, this is only noticeable in gray tones—reds, greens, and blues look fantastic no matter what. Unfortunately there is lots of gray in OS X and in general the work I do tends to include gray from time to time of course!
    I've used both the Apple Display Calibrator and SuperCal. The Apple one helped alleviate the very pink cast the entire screen had with the default color profile, but I found that SuperCal produced much better results giving me neutral grays across the entire screen... almost. The pink quarter (and I swear almost the whole upper half, but that might be my imagination?!??) of the screen remains EVER SO SLIGHTLY different looking.
    I also have backlight bleeding that I'm prepared to live with as it's barely noticeable most of the time. I don't have any image persistence, dead pixels, etc. Is it worth either the long drive to the Apple Store or the high cost of shipping it back for a replacement? Should I not demand perfection? The problem is risking getting a WORSE replacement at a troublesome expenditure of time and money to me.
    I also want to hear if anyone has the same barely-noticeable-pink-in-only-a-portion-of-the-screen issue.
    PowerBook G4 15"/800MHz   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   23" Cinema HD Display

    Sure I have it too ... When I bough my first 23 it was pinkish overall and I finally messed about with the calibrating long enough to accept the result and live with it ... I just bought my second one and now have a pink to green gradient ... can't get rid of it ... Reading the forum I also seem to have backlight leakage and the translucency problem ... Haven't noticed a dead pixel yet ... if that one happens ... there will be a dead salesman at the store ... It's a pitty ... loyalty to Apple only goes a certain way ... thinking of buying Sony LCD's instead ... but then I read they are the same ... Maybe I just have to live with it ... and dream about the paradise holiday I will make with the profits of my edit on these not perfect displays ...

  • Do I have to live with dark/dead pixels with my new 15" MBP? Yesterday I bought one and have one dark spot in the middle of the screen.

    Hello
    Yesterday I bought a 15" MBP and found a dark spot in the middle of its screen right away while in the 1st-time-welcome-boot. What a welcome. Do I have to live with it? It is exactly one pixel missing its yellow subpixel. It would be ok if it would be in some corner - but its right in the middle of the screen. Suggestions/experiences in this matter anyone?

    Thanks for your suggestions - took it back - got a new, mint, shiny one
