Fluxbox disply too murky not very sharp[SOLVED]

Hi ppl,
Managed to get my X server configured and installed the fluxbox sucessfully and got it launch as well. But, the display is too murky i.e., it is not very sharp. I just followed the instructions here http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beg … de#Fluxbox
Could you tell some tweaks to make my display sharper.
Thanks.

  • My iPad Air pictures are a little grainy. The images are not very sharp. Any ideas on how I can fix this?

    Hi, I have an 32gb IPad Air. The picture quality is blurry and grainy. I don't know why it is happening. It is two months old and the quality has always been this way. I am going to a friends wedding in two weeks and I want to figure out how to take good pictures.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Sandrea

    You would be much better off with a point-and-shoot camera, especially for an occasion like a wedding. The iPad Air only has a 5MP camera.
    Make sure you're taking pictures in a well-lit area. You should be able to tap on a face/area on the screen to get the camera to focus. Either of those may help.

  • Why is the FaceTime HD camera on the thunderbolt display not as sharp as the iPad

    I just hooked up the 27" Thunderbolt display.  The "HD" camera is not very sharp (looks the same as my old iMac).  By contrast, the iPad2 camera is clear and sharp?  I've looked for settings or "About this Mac" info without success.

    since installing the latest version... when I open a new window it opens everything I have minimized too... very annoying. How can I fix this, I minimize to go back to a window not have multiple windows open.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == after installed last version...

    Well, then isn't there some way to induce Firefox to give Windows parameters that make it open the fershlugginer window in the *same* position, instead of an offset position?

    I know you guys think you fixed the Newcastle temperature problem.  But there are still a LOT of us out here who are having trouble, using latest BIOS.  People are reporting this all over the MSI forums.  The behavior is as follows, flashing the BIOS might help initially, but soon after the temp shoots way back up.

  • Why is DVD fuzzy made via iMovie,Media browser, iDVD at professional quality.  Original photos very sharp, DVD fuzzy.

    I made an iMovie from very sharp photos, moved it to iDVD via Media Browser, Made "Professional Quality" DVD in iDVD.  When I play the DVD back on eiher my iMac oxs 10.7.5 "DVDPlayer" or my DVD player hooked to my Sony TV set, the resulting movie from the DVD is unsharp, very fuzzy and very disappointing.  I am using Memorex DVD-R discs.  The playback colors of the made DVD are also changed from the original photos I used from i Photo.
    Is this normal to loose so much sharpness and clarity in going from iPhoto to iMovie to iDVD?

    Hi
    OR the long long answer is something like this:
    DVD quality
    1. iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.
    2. Video from
    FCE/P - Export out as full quality QuickTime.mov (not self-containing, no conversion)
    iMovie x-6 - Don't use ”Share/Export to iDVD” = destructive even to movie project and especially so
    when the movie includes photos and the Ken Burns effect NOT is used. Instead just drop or import the iMovie movie project icon (with a Star on it) into iDVD theme window.
    iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not meant to go to iDVD.
    They drop every second line in the picture.
    Go via Media Browser (and then use MEDIUM - as HD does get a BAD Scale down quality) or rather use iMovie HD 6 from start.
    3. I use Roxio Toast™ to make an as slow burn as possibly e.g. x4 or x1 (in iDVD’08 or 09  this can also be set)
    This can also be done with Apple’s Disk Utilities application when burning from a DiskImage.
    - iDVD - set Burn Speed in iDVD Pref. / Advance - BEST IS NOT BEST - x2 or max x4
    - Roxio™ - set in burn process
    - Disk Util tool - set in burn process
    BEST IS NOT BEST
    4. There has to be about or more than 25Gb free space on internal (start-up) hard disk. iDVD can't
    use an external one as scratch disk (if it is not start-up disc). For SD-Video - if HD-material is used I guess that 4 to 5 times more would do.
    5. I use Verbatim ( also recommended by many - Taiyo Yuden DVDs - I can’t get hold of it to test )
    6. I use DVD-R (no +R or +/-RW) - DVD-R play’s on more and older DVD-Players
    7. Keep NTSC to NTSC - or - PAL to PAL when going from iMovie to iDVD
    (I use JES_Deinterlacer to keep frame per sec. same from editing to the Video-DVD result.)
    8. Don’t burn more than three DVDs at a time - but let the laser cool off for a while before next batch.
    iDVD quality also depends on.
    DVD is a standard in it self. It is Standard Definition Quality = Same as on old CRT-TV sets and can not
    deliver anything better that this.
    HD-DVD was a short-lived standard and it was only a few Toshiba DVD-players that could playback.
    These DVDs could be made in DVD-Studio Pro. But they don’t playback on any other standard DVD-Player.
    Blu-Ray / BD can be coded onto DVDs but limited in time to - about 20-30 minutes and then need
    _ Roxio Toast™ 10 Pro incl. BD-component
    _ BD disks and burner if full length movies are to be stored
    _ BD-Player or PlayStation3 - to be able to playback
    The BD-encoded DVDs can be play-backed IF Mac also have Roxio DVD-player tool. Not on any standard Mac or DVD-player
    Full BD-disks needs a BD-player (in Mac) as they need blue-laser to be read. No red-laser can do this.
    HOW much free space is there on Your internal (start-up) hard disk. Go for approx. 25Gb.
    less than 5Gb and Your result will most probably not play.
    How it was recorded - Tripod vs Handheld Camera. A stable picture will give a much higher quality
    Audio is most often more critical than picture. Bad audio and with dropouts usually results in a non-viewed movie.
    Use of Video-editor. iMovie’08 or 09 or 11 are not the tools for DVD-production. They discard every second line resulting in a close to VHS-tape quality.
    iMovie 1 to HD6 and FinalCut any version delivers same quality as Camera record in = 100% to iDVD
    What kind of movie project You drop into it. MPEG4 seems to be a bad choice.
    other strange formats are .avi, .wmv, .flash etc. Convert to streamingDV first
    Also audio formats matters. I use only .aiff or from miniDV tape Camera 16-bit
    strange formats often problematic are .avi, .wmv, audio from iTunes, .mp3 etc
    Convert to .aiff first and use this in movie project
    What kind of standard - NTSC movie and NTSC DVD or PAL to PAL - no mix.
    (If You need to change to do a NTSC DVD from PAL material let JES_Deinterlacer_3.2.2 do the conversion)
    (Dropping a PAL movie into a NTSC iDVD project
    (US) NTSC DVDs most often are playable in EU
    (EU) PAL DVDs most often needs to be converted to play in US
    UNLESS. They are play-backed by a Mac - then You need not to care
    What kind of DVDs You are using. I use Verbatim DVD-R (this brand AND no +R or +/-RW)
    How You encode and burn it. Two settings prior iDVD’08 or 09
    Pro Quality (only in iDVD 08 & 09)
    Best / High Quality (not always - most often not)
    Best / High Performances (most often my choice before Pro Quality)
    1. go to iDVD pref. menu and select tab far right and set burn speed to x1 (less errors = plays better) - only in iDVD 08 & 09
    (x4 by some and may be even better)
    2. Project info. Select Professional Encoding - only in iDVD 08 & 09.
    Region codes.
    iDVD - only burn Region = 0 - meaning - DVDs are playable everywhere
    DVD Studio pro can set Region codes.
    1 = US
    2 = EU

    What it turned out to be was the "quality" settings in iDVD. The total clip time was NOT over 2 hours or 4.7GB, yet iDVD created massive visual artifacts on the "professional quality" setting.
    I switched the settings to "high quality" which solved the problem. According iDVD help, "high quality" determines the best bit rate for the clips you have.
    I have NEVER seen iDVD do this before, especially when I was under the 2 hour and 4.7GB limits.
    For anyone else, there seem to be 2 places in iDVD to set quality settings, the first is under "preferences" and the second under "project info." They do NOT seem to be linked (i.e. if you change one, the other is NOT changed). take care, Mario
    to get this to work I
    Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
    Use Verbatim DVD-R (absolutely no +/-RW)
    Set down burn speed to x4 - less burn errors = plays on more devices
    No other process running in background as - ScreenSaver, EnergySaver OR TIMEMACHINE etc
    and I'm very careful on what kind of video-codecs, audio file format and photo file formats I use
    and I consider the iDVD Bug - never go back to video-editor to change/up-date - if so Start  a brand new iDVD project
    Chapters set as they should - NO one at very beginning and no one in any transition or within 2 sec from it
    Lay-out - Turn on TV-Safe area and keep everything buttons, titles etc WELL INSIDE not even touching it !
    Try to break the process up into two stages
    Save as a DiskImage (calculating part)
    Burn from this .img file (burning stage)
    To isolate where the problem starts.
    Another thing is - Playing it onto a Blu-Ray Player. My PlayStation3 can play BD-disks but not all of my home made DVDs so to get this to work I
    Secure a minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up (Mac OS) hard disk
    Use Verbatim DVD-R (absolutely no +/-RW)
    Set down burn speed to x4 - less burn errors = plays on more devices
    No other process running in background as - ScreenSaver, EnergySaver OR TIMEMACHINE etc
    and I'm very careful on what kind of video-codecs, audio file format and photo file formats I use
    and I consider the iDVD Bug - never go back to video-editor to change/up-date - if so Start  a brand new iDVD project
    Chapters set as they should - NO one at very beginning and no one in any transition or within 2 sec from it
    Lay-out - Turn on TV-Safe area and keep everything buttons, titles etc WELL INSIDE not even touching it !
    TO GET IT TO WORK SLIGHTLY FASTER
    Minimum of 25Gb free space on Start-Up hard disk for SD-Video Quality and about 4 - 5 times more - if it is a HD-Project.
    No other programs running in BackGround e.g. Energy-Saver
    Don’t let HD spin down or be turned off (in Energy-Save)
    Do not have more external devices connected as is of urgent need. Move hard disks that are not to be used to Trash - Or to be disconnected/turned off
    Goto Spotlight and set the rest of them under Integrity (not to be scanned)
    Set screen-saver to a folder without any photo
    First - then make an active corner (up right for me) and set pointer to this
    Secondly - turns on screen saver
    Then - to show that it has nothing to show
    No File Vault on - Important
    NO - TimeMachine - during iMovie/iDVD work either ! IMPORTANT
    Lot's of icons on DeskTop/Finder also slows down the Mac noticeably
    if a project is in a real hurry
    First - Then Start a new User-Account and
    Then - log into this and iMovie get's faster too
    And let Mac run on Mains - not just on battery

  • My iphone 3g stays on the apple logo for about 4 minutes then flashes white and goes back to the apple screen, it repeats untill battery is flat,  every now and then im lucky enough to get it to turn on but not very often and then it freezes and repeats??

    hello my name is kirstie, i updated to firmware 4.2.1 .....my iphone 3g stays on the apple logo for about 4 minutes then flashes white and goes back to the apple screen, it repeats untill battery is flat,  every now and then im lucky enough to get it to turn on but not very often and then it freezes and repeats the same problem?? (if i turn the phone off my pressing the two buttons it wont keep rebooting, its only when i leave it after turning it on)
    I have reset the phone, full firmware restore, even downgraded back from firmware 4.2.1 to .3.1.3 official by using dfu mode and still doesnt fix.
    (i correctly got out of dfu mode after the downgrade)
    i can enter dfu mode and recovery, and update through itunes with no problem, but it doesnt fix the problem,
    i have searched and found no answer to this problem, every option availible to try that i know of i have tried and failed. i dont care about preserving my content i just want a fix. i have a good understanding how to operate software on a computer and shouldnt be too confused by any advice given, so plz even if the answer is very complex i wish to try anything, please help me to get my iphone working.

    Anyone have any suggestions? or is everyone else just as clueless as me !

  • How to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage too, but it isn't solved. Thanks

    dear, there.
    how to change the default search engine? I accidentaly change it from google to yahoo, and I can't get it back. I changed my homepage to google too, but it isn't solved. Thanks

    Clarification:
    I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
    If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

  • IPad not receiving PDFs they are arriving open. Had sender email to a friends iPad, she received correctly. This must be my problem. Never had this happen in past. What can I do, lay terms please, I'm not very technical!

    iPad not receiving PDFs, never had this problem in past. Had sender resend to a friend, she received them in correct format. Help, not very technical lay terms please.

    Unfortunately, most of my advice is in the "hindsight is 20-20" category.
    First off, I would never have purchased the peripheral accessories until the 14 day return period had expired. Second, you learned the hard way what the "14 days" really means.
    Too bad you didn't do any homework, reading this and other forums and tech sites. Even word of mouth from others. That, more than anything could have steered you towards different phone choices from the get-go and I will leave that there with no further comment other than to say most of the issues you described have been discussed in this forum, ad nauseam.
    Once you got into the refurbished phone exchanges, that is where things really went haywire. What someone tells you over the phone is a sketchy proposition, and when it comes down to it, it's your word against theirs.
    I think Verizon tried to make it right, though. Remember, they don't make the phones. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
    You stated yourself you were a satisfied Verizon customer before this. Had the first two phones performed as they should, you would still be a satisfied Verizon customer.
    Doubt any of that will make you any happier, but after you went through the effort of writing such a long post, I thought I'd try.

  • Images imported from iPhoto to iDvd are not as sharp as originals. Any solution?

    Trying iDVD for the first time. Imported images from iPhoto. However on the DVD, the images are not as sharp as the original files which are very sharp and well-focused. Any solutions or is this kind of degradation just to be expected?
    Thank you!

    Hi
    There are several layers to this.
    a. There are no HD-DVD - DVD is as standard only Standard Definition as on old CRT-TVs and can never be anything btter as iPhoto showes on Your Mac screen (5 to 10 times higher resolution)
    b. One can get a result less than iDVD SD quality and down to really bad by
    • Using iMovie'08 or 09 or 11 - as they discard every second line in the picture = 50% loss
    • Using iMovie HD6 and NO Ken Burns effect AND "Share to iDVD" as this also results in disaster (heavely pixelated Bad bad pictures) - (as iMovie will render badly)
    c. I build my SlideShow in
    • iMovie HD6 - and no Ken Burns effect - BUT I close iMovie and import iMovie movie project (SlideShow) from within iDVD and now iDVD will render and so much better.
    • FinalCut also delivers maximal quality over to iDVD
    (from FCE/P - Export out as QuickTime .mov - NO QuickTime conversion (Important))
    • iMovie'08 to 11 - I Share to Media Browser and as Large (not HD or other)
    iMovie HD6/FinalCut + iDVD will give as high quality possibly to the resulting DVD.
    I use
    • Verbatim DVD-R
    • set down burn speed to x4 (Plays better on many DVD-Players)
    • Pro Quality encoding - I got the time and like the result
    Yours Bengt W

  • Fluid grid not very. Fluid.

    I was under the impression (incorrect) that one advantage to the fluid layout was that I could control the layout for different resolutions/devices.  Arrange things for the desktop, a different design for the phone, etc. Changing the poistion of one would not effect the other. Even remove  undesired elements. For example, a video on the desktop would not show on the phone.
    When I arrange things for the smallest layont - say a phone, the other layouts change as well. For example, it my logo is on the right on the desktop, I want it on top on the phone. Can't do it. Move it on the phone layout and it's now on the left on the desktop. If I delete a DIV for the tablet, it's deleted in all three layouts. I can have a video in my desktop - no bandwidth problem. But I don't want the video on the phone. Can't do that without a lot of hand-coding.
    At this point, as cool a concept as the fluid layout tool is in Dreamweaver, it's not very useful in practicality. Way too limited.
    Or am I missing something?

    Sorry, I guess I am the wrong person to answer questions related to the DW Fluid Grid Layout, I had a look at it when it was first introduced and absolutely hated it. I do believe that the current version has been improved; but I still have my doubts based on the history of Spry, ADDT and the Server Behaviours panel where Adobe decided to no longer support/maintain these.

    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)

    "Avast" is the worst of the whole wretched lot of commercial "security" products for the Mac. Not only does it fail to protect you from any real danger, it may send personal data (such as web browsing history and the contents of email messages) back to the developer without your knowledge, give false warnings, destabilize and slow down the computer, expose you to network attack, and corrupt the network settings and the permissions of files in your home folder. Removing it may not repair all the damage.
    Some versions of the product also inject advertising into web pages. In short, apart from the fine print in the license agreement, Avast is indistinguishable from malware, and is arguably worse than any known malware now in circulation.
    Back up all data, then remove Avast according to the developer's instructions. Restart.
    If you tried to remove Avast by dragging an application to the Trash, you'll have to reinstall it and then follow the instructions linked above.

    iPod Classic 80GB. Message reads ' iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation'.  It says it has synced but it hasn't. Please help, I am not very tech minded.

    See this article about troubleshooting the error message regarding access privelages.  It may be preventing your iTunes library from being able to save/retain music you have recently imported to it, which may explain why no new content is being added to your device.
