  • Having trouble with DVD Video files. Please Help! :)

    Hi I recently got a film DVD I wanted to take a clip off. However although I can watch the section I want in Windows Media Player, when I import the film into Premiere - some of it is missing! there are 4 files '4-1',4-2','4-3',4-4' which make up the movie. I can load them all in but 4-3 is missing the last 15-20 minutes, even though I know its there - cos this file is the same size as the previous one which is full length. Does anyone know why this would be? The DVD is unencrypted.
    Please help - its quite annoying that the small section of film I want is the bit that won't appear! Thank you very much
    Rich

    Based on this one line:
    The DVD is unencrypted.
    I was assuming that it was not protected. However, as you point out, some aspects might be, and the OP might not be completely aware of this.
    If there is protection, I strongly urge anyone to respect that, regardless of their intended use of the material. Copy protection is there for a very good reason. Regardless of what one might be able to do, they should be 100% ethical, and honor any/all copy protection. This is true for material from a videographer, or from a commercial studio. Should you need to use the material in such a DVD-Video, you should contact the author to get first permission, and then the original source material, that has not undergone the MPEG-2 compression to DVD-Video.
    Again, I assume that the OP knows that this is NOT an issue, and will not figure into the problem. In that case, all above does NOT apply in this case, but some other reader might make note of it.
    Good luck,

  • Mega problems with new Mega 180 - Help, please!

    Hello everyone. I recently built a MEGA 180 system for a customer of mine, and have been having NOTHING but problems with it. First off, during the Windows XP PRo install, I'll often receive errors stating that certain files cant be copied, and I'll have to hit enter several times before the file will copy. I've replaced the CD-ROM with an MSI model, and used a different XP CD, and still receive these errors during install pretty often. Secondly, once I get everything installed, I'll get numerous program errors in XP (usually explorer.exe and iexplore.exe, but pretty much every program crashes sometimes). I've used a different HD, different RAM, and I've formatted the HD and reinstalled XP at least 6 times, and am STILL having problems. Im a computer tech, and fairly proficient at building PCs, though this is my first SFF pc I've built. Im really at my wits end here, and am not sure where else to go for ideas on what this can be. I've submitted an online help ticket with MSI, but I wanted to see if you guys had any ideas in the meantime. System specs are as follows:
    MSI Mega 180
    AMD XP 2800+ CPU (I used artic silver, btw)
    512MB Corsair XMS PC3200 RAM (I also used 512MB GEIL PC3200 Golden Dragon)
    80GB Western Digital HD
    MSI CD-RW/DVD-ROM combo drive
    average temp under load: 50c
    average temp idle: 36c
    Thanks in advance guys!

    Well, hrmm... :noidea:I know when I built my Mega180 I didn't have those problems at least, so it's hard to pinpoint.  My bets are toward the memory (although you did swap it out, so that's what bugs me with my thought on that).  My next guess would be the MoBo itself (which would be an MSI replace basically as there isn't much leeway for a different board for that case (or getting it out  ).  I am shocked, however, that you have your sys temps so low.  I have an Athlon XP 2700+ (333 FSB, Thunderbird) and my temps go around 60C with the case open and a small room fan blowing through the case...for now).  Do you mind telling me how you got your system so cool?  I've been considering the Koolance Exos watercooling just to bring this system to stable, lower temps [but I've never dealt with watercooling yet  )  Of course, sys temps have always been by biggest problem.
    Sorry if this wasn't a big help, but the randomness of the errors seems to lean towards the memory/mobo...possibly the HDD I suppose.  Does it still receive errors when not dealing with an optical disc (CD or DVD)?  If so, that definitely rules out the optical as the only problem (it may still be a problem, but it wouldn't be the only one at least).

    - use code tags (see: http://forum.java.sun.com/help.jspa?sec=formatting)
    - always provide the compiler (and/or runtime) errors.
    Your problem is this:inString.read(). String has no method called read().
    To loop through a String and check it's contents line by line you could use a for-statement and String's charAt(int) method.
    Here's how to use the for-statement:

  • Having problems with this, can you help?

    Hello everyone, I'm currently making a j2me game, I'm still a newbie to it tho.
    I'm currently making the splash screen and I've followed a tutorial and intended to make my own, problem now is that there is something wrong with the code and is not working as I thought it would. Can you guys check what's wrong with my code? And please advise me on what's wrong and how do I fix it. Thanks alot. The code is below. The Sscreen.java is the one responsible for making and showing the splash screen while the Main.java is the main midlet and calls Sscreen.java.
    // Sscreen.java
    import java.util.Timer;
    import java.util.TimerTask;
    import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
    public final class Sscreen extends Canvas
         private Display dis;
         private Displayable nxt;
         private Timer tmer;
         private Image im;
         public Sscreen(Display dis,Displayable nxt,Image im)
              tmer=new Timer();
              this.dis=dis;
              this.nxt=nxt;
              this.im=im;
              dis.setCurrent(this);
         private void dismiss()
              tmer.cancel();
              dis.setCurrent(nxt);
         protected void keyPressed(int keyC)
              dismiss();
         protected void paint(Graphics g)
              g.setColor(0x00000000);
              g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
              g.setColor(0x00000000);
              g.drawImage(im,getWidth()/2,getHeight()/2-5,3);
         protected void showNotify()
              tmer.schedule(new Counter(), 3000);
         private class Counter extends TimerTask
              public void run()
                   dismiss();
    // Main Class
    import javax.microedition.lcdui.*;
    import javax.microedition.midlet.*;
    public class Main extends MIDlet
         private Display dis;
         private Image im;
         private boolean Splash=true;
         public Main(){}
         protected void destroyApp(boolean arg) throws MIDletStateChangeException {
              notifyDestroyed();     
         protected void pauseApp() {     }
         protected void startApp() throws MIDletStateChangeException {
              dis=dis.getDisplay(this);
              if(Splash)
                   Splash=false;
                   try
                        im=Image.createImage("/bg.png");
                        new Sscreen(dis,new Temp(),im);
                   catch(Exception e)
                        System.out.println("Prob 2");
         class Temp extends Form implements CommandListener
              private Command exitCommand = new Command("Exit", Command.EXIT, 1 );
              public Temp()
                   super("Main");
                   addCommand( exitCommand );
         setCommandListener( (CommandListener) Main.this );
              public void commandAction(Command arg0, Displayable arg1) {
                   notifyDestroyed();
    }

    i think problem is here
    *setCommandListener( (CommandListener) Main.this );*instead use
    setCommandListener(this );

    i created Master/Detail form using wizard, the master form is working fine but am when i try to add data using the detail form its giving me error :
    Error in mru internal routine: ORA-20001: Error in MRU: row= 1, ORA-20001: ORA-20001: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum = "A884FA378C851786DDFE3A33709CB23C", item checksum = "5F8B1EE5CD3D46437455F43B37B9A6A0"., update "ABA"."ABA_SURVEY_SUBCATEGORY_MAST" set "ASCM_CATEGORY_ID" = :b1, "ASM_SURVEY_CODE" = :b2, "ASSM_SUBCATEGORY_ID" = :b3, "ASSM_SUBCATEGORY_DESC" = :b4

    here is the solution,i hope this might help u.
    go to the code of your button and change write the following
    go_block('name of your master block');
    execute_query(no_validate);
    and in the object navigator make the first item in the master
    block that it should be displayed in the canvas and it must be a
    navigable item too.not a display item.

  • Hi, i'm having problem with syncing my Ipod. Please help me.

    I tried to transfer apps from my ipod to my computer, it said there is not enough space in my ipod, it really took about 500MB of space in my Ipod for nothing! how can fix that? and is Itunes always keep it's downloaded file (like Ipod Firmware update) in my computer's C drive?

    I am a little confused.  In some places your say there is not enough space on your iPod and other times you indicate that there is not enough space on your C drive.  How much available space do you have on your iPod?  How much is taken up by "other".  With you iPod connected to the computer the Summary page of iTunes for your iPod will breakdown the usage.  How much free space is available on your C drive?

  • I think I have a problem with Mavericks: can anyone help,please?

    A couple of days ago I installed Mavericks on top of my existing Mountain Lion OS. Not before I backed up the ML version with Time Machine, though.... :-)
    Initially I thought everthing was fine, but then started to notice a few things that bothered me, which have not gone away. In fact, I think this install is now a potential problem. Unlike many other people, elsewhere on this forum, I have not noticed the calamitous slowing down and general unusability of Mavericks. I'm using a prety new i7 iMac ( the new flat one) with 32 GB of RAM.Everytihng worked great with Mountain Lion. However, The following anomalies have cropped up: Mail is taking over 30" to send a simple email. In ML it was almost instantaneous. I feel that Mail is not performing as it did in ML, and the same goes for Safari. It "feels" odd and slow and can take an age to load up pages. In fact one particular page would not load properly at all, but worked fine in Firefox. In the end got it to work in Sfari, but ithis type of behaviour doesn't instill confidence. Things got wierder...
    An update to iMovie got " stuck" in the dowload process,and was perpetually downloading in Launchpad. It kept oscillating from approx 61 MB to aprrox 84 MB of a 1.94 GB file. Then I did a disk utiltiy test of my system drive and it suddenly stated that the drive need repairing. I booted up in Recovery Mode and tested the drive, which came back all clear! I booted up normally again and now the disk utility won't even complete a full diagnosis of the drive!It will diagnos all my other drives fine though.... :-s  It keeps getting stuck on: Checking Volume Bitmap, and won't go any further. So, I did what some other person did on another thread, which seemed to clear up his problems; namely: simply reinstalled Mavericks  from Recovery mode. This did not improve anything for me. The same issues remain. In fact as I type this, I notice that I'm using nearly 23 GB of my 32 GB of RAM, and all I have open is Safari, Disk Utility and Mail ! To quote Hans Solo: " I've got a b-a-a-a-d feeling about this..."
    So, this is my long-winded way of asking: what shall I do? I would like to boot in Recovery Mode and reinstall my back up from an external drive. Does anyone have any advice about this,please? If I restore from my backup, will I actually get the ML OS back on the computer, or will  I be stuck with Mavericks trying to impose itself ,as some people reported? I do want to use Mavericks, but not in the condition it's in right now. Also,  really don't want to perfom a clean install and migrate everything over from the Time Machine back up....
    Thanks for any advice.

    I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
    Disk Utility can verify  my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
    I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
    I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
    I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
    Good luck!

  • Having problems with playback being quiet after burning to CD

    Hey everyone..
    OK... this is a weird one... well im hoping its an easy one and im just missing something.
    OK so i edit music together for a dnace group so ts basically blending songs together using MP3's. Once finished i create a mixdown and burn to CD.
    The problems occurs when we perform at venues with big sound systems :It just plays back quiet when everyone else music is fine :S but when we play it on a normal to medium size system its fine.
    Please help as its so frustration.
    Thank you in advance

    This could well be one of the few genuine examples of "everyone is out of step but me".
    There is a tendancy these days to burn CDs at the hottest possible level and also to over compress the music so it has little or no dynamics (and very little "life) left.  I suspect the other CDs are burned like this.  On a controlled system, your versions probably sound fine but compared to the over-hot, over-compressed stuff, yours sounds quieter.
    That said, theatre venues can be remarkably noisy places for playback.  A shuffling, coughing audience, air handling, candy wrappers and (nowadays) the scourge of moving lights can mean you compete with a lot of background noise.
    My main involvement in sound is for live theatre work so I prepare a lot of CDs for playback. When that's the only use I'm going to have for the CDs, I tend to put in higher levels and more compression than I would for normal listening.  However, I tend to do this "by eye and ear" rather than using an automatic compressor.  My method would be:  (look away, Steve G...I'm going to mention hard limiting.)
    1.  Prepare my track in the normal way.
    2.  Normalise to -.1dB.
    3.  Examine the Audition display of the whole track.  Generally, there will be a few transient peaks that represent the highest level with most of the track being a few dB lower.  I note the level of the highest "general" part of the track.
    4.  In Edit View, I use Effects/Amplitiude/Hard Limiting to hard limit the track to -.1dB and I  use the "Boost input by ____ dB" to raise the signal so the "general" level is now the maximum.
    Obviously this requires a bit of a judgement call do decide what you consider the "general" level.  However, with a bit of practice you can get you levels as high as possible without killing all the dynamics.
    The other thing to say is this only works if all your tracks are reasonably similar.  If, since you're putting together a medley of different tracks, there are huge differences to start with, you should even these out during the mix process.
    Hope this helps.

  • Problems with the time setting. help please

    i have the time set on my ipod touch by the city i live. the time will be right for a couple days, but then it becomes an hour behind. how does that happen or how can i make that not happen?
    can anyone please help me?

    I'm having same problem too.  Has happened 3-4 times now.  Can't figure out what causes the time to change to random time. At one point I thought it was caused by my leaving my calendar at a previous date or appointment, but really don't think so.  I have a Verizon - iphone 5.  I would think that the time would come from Verizon. Not Apple.  But no one else is talking about it.  Anyway, you're not alone )c:   Turning it off and then back on is fine HOWEVER, last night it changed time to 2 or 3 hours EARLIER so my alarms were screwed up!  I asked Siri "what time is it" and she must get her information from the iphone settings. So... she gave me the WRONG time also.  Sad.  1st time it happened, it was actually Sunday 8:03 AM PST and iphone showed 11:38PM.   This morning, not only was the time wrong, the date was  last Tuesday, 9/26/12!  Not funny when we all depend on our calendars and appointments that are set on each day.   Other times, I just reset it and will wait for someone to fix the problem.  I love the iphone 5 though!  Nice and light (I'm a runner). It replaced a 4. Loved that one too, but new iOS6 is WAY FASTER!  Love it to pieces! 

  • Only hear 8 mins of audio after dvd being burned. help please

    i keep trying to burn an avi file to idvd, but once its burned only the first 8 minutes of audio can be heard after that video looks fine but it becomes a silent film, i called apple and they said to go to advanced and click on delete encoded assets and that should fix the problem, but it didint. Has anyone had this problem and if so did you find a way to fix it?
    id appreciate any help!
    Thanks in advance

    There's a known issue with 12 bit audio and iDVD. But its issue is syncing when encoded. It's unlikely that's the issue but it might. That's out of my area. See these topics: Re: Audio not in sync, Re: Audio sync problem when burning to DVD and So many audio problems.
    They might have a suggestion you can try. Have you tried the disk image route yet?
