How to channel surf just my favorite channels

I just got the X1 box with the really minimal remote.  There is no longer a Fav button - how do I channel surf through my favorites? I don't mean filter the guide - I know how to see the list.  I want to just surf through without having to see every dang channel in existence.

I am considering going back to satellite for this reason alone. I hope someone from Comcast marketing is paying attention to this. It is such a fundemental feature it is surreal that they would take that capability away. Every TV or cable box I have had for 30+ years has come with the ability to choose the channels that you cycle through with the channel up and down keys. This is a conscious decision someone has made to force people to tune to every one of the 500 or so channels and it is nuts!

  • How do I select just one audio channel in Final Cut Pro X?

    I know this has been asked and answered somewehre... and I'm pretty sure the answer is simple. But I don't have hour's to search the net.
    And the FCPX "Help" feature just ****** me off....
    I recorded voice on channel 2 and shotgun nat.sound on channel 1.
    I only want the voice track (channel 2) to playback in stereo.
    I have already edited the video so I don't want to re-import the raw video to seperate out just the channel 2 voice track.
    How do I select just one audio channel in the timeline, then pan it so it plays back in both the L and R channel?
    Also, some of the audio was recorded with a air conditioner running in the background.  Any suggestions on best audio filers to remove or lessen it?
    Thanks, Barry

    I think you want to select the clip in the Timeline, choose the Inspector and then Audio, dual mono.
    You can even do this by selecting multiple clips.
    In the Event Browser as well.

  • Is their a way to find out how many channels in DAQmx code?

    Hi I am using DAQmx VI's to aquire voltage and temperature.  Is there a way to know how many channels were chosen from each individual Create Channel VI without looking at the physical channels input control?  For example with the physical channel input of "cDAQ1Mod2/ai0:3" I know I have 4 channels selected, however, I want to use the number of channels that were selected my the user which can change depending on the user input.

    You can simply use the Task property, Number of Channels. Use one after the voltage tasks and one after the temperature task. The rest is just subtaction.

  • How many channels have digital input?

    Hi, I want to know how many channels have the digital input of the intel mac mini. I have an digital input with six channels and I would like record in different tracks in garageband or other program. It's possible?
    Thanks and excuse me for my english.
    Mac Mini (Intel Core Solo)   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    I don't use GarageBand much, but I did a couple of searches. If you search the GarageBand forum, it is possible to import/record more than one or two tracks at a time. In fact, people have recorded six tracks with a USB/MIDI interface. HOWEVER, there is more to consider than just the ability of the software to do this. The processor and the hard drive will have to keep up. From what I found there, it seems the processor and hard drive of the Mac mini will not be able to keep up with six tracks. Apple uses some laptop components, like hard drives, to keep the Mac mini small. One sacrifice of smaller components is lower performance. If you're going to work on projects like that, the folks in the GarageBand forum might recommend an iMac. Your topic might be better suited for that forum, since digital optical audio for the Mac mini is brand new, there might not be many people here with much experience.

  • How many channels should i need for my 10 pieces of thermocouple?

    1.i need test 10 pieces of thermocouples at one time,so how many channels do i need? are 8 channels enough(SCXI-1112) of i must use 32 channel(SCXI-1102)?
    2.I only need test 3 LVDT signals and 3 strain guage signal(must full bridge),do you have 4 channels' LVDT module and 4 channels' Strain/bridge module(full bridge)?
    3.if i hug all these sensors to the signal conditioning,does that mean my DAQ should have at least 16 Analog inputs,beside do you have 12-bit DAQ?

    dittoit,
    1. If you need to measure 10 thermocouples, then you will need at least that many differential channels. So the 1102 would be best.
    2. The current LVDT module we offer is the 1540 which has 8 Channels as does the 1520 which is the best strain gauge module.
    3. The measurements from the SCXI Chassis will normally be multiplexed to one channel on the DAQ card. Any of our E-Series (except the Basic DAQ) will control. Our E-Series card can be either 12-bit or 16-bit.

  • How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

    First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn.  I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

    Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor.  The pro version of iMovie.
    Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow.  It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them.  You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
    When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
    Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
    Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
    Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
    Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image  menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process. 
    To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it.  If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
    Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality.  Always use top quality media:  Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
    The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version).  Personal preferences showing here.

  • How do I add back my favorites back after an upgrade to windows 7

  • How can I back just some of my bookmarks? I have many folders in my Firefox bookmarks directory and only want to back up one.

    I have 30 or so folders in my main bookmarks directory, and I need to export just one of them to another computer. I've tried various ways, but the entire bookmark file ends up in the export.l

    Ok, found a way that works, but it's kinda inelegant. Remember, my task was how to export one of 18 favorites directories:
    1) Open the Favorites Library (see above for methods).
    2) Click on the "Import and Backup" menu item, select "Backup..." and follow instructions to create a backup file.
    3) Back in the Favorites Library, in the left pane click on "Bookmarks Menu". You should see all of your bookmarks and bookmark folders in the right pane.
    4) Click on one of them then do Ctrl-a to select all of them.
    5) Holding the Ctrl key down de-select the folder(s) you wish to export.
    6) With all the unwanted folders and bookmarks selected, hit the delete key.
    7) Now do an export. It will contain only the folders/bookmarks you did not delete.
    8) Once you verify the exported file contains what you want, go back to the Favorites Library, click on the "Import and Backup" menu, select "Restore...", navigate to your backup file and restore your Favorites.
    Took longer to type the above steps than it actually takes to do it...

  • When I put my phone into Do Not Disturb mode....how do I know who my favorites are who can override this feature

    When I put my phone iPhone 4s into Do Not Disturb mode, how do I know who my favorites are that can over ride this feature?

    The sort fields should generally be empty unless you've putting in custom values to sort solo artists by their surnames. You can apply common changes to thousands of tracks at once, just don't apply the wrong change because there is no undo.
    It is a good idea to backup before undertaking large scale changes. See this backup tip for a suggested approach.

  • I am evaluating Firefox to replace my AOL, how do in import my AOL Favorites into Firefox?

    I am evaluating Firefox to replace my AOL, how do in import my AOL Favorites into Firefox?

    First off we have the Favorites as 100+ *.url files that came from a PC... so no export command was used.
    Regarding the first recommendation of opening every URL and adding it to our Bookmarks would take a long time... there are probably 300 "Favorites" in there.
    Is there another way besides Exporting from IE... Since I did not do that and now just have 100s of .url files in one folder on my Mac's desktop?
    Thank you for the replies!

  • How can I get just the text to resize, rather than the entire web page?

    I used to be able to re-size just text on a webpage by typing Ctrl + +. Today, the entire webpage re-sizes, and when I move to another page it reverts. (I see this mostly in Facebook.). Why did this change, and can I go back to having just the text re-size?

  • How can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

    how can i print just one page of photo book without printing the entire book

    Jim,
    Take heart.  We can help.
    First turn on page view so you can see how the content of your sheet fits on the page(s).  A Numbers document contains sheets (listed on the left) which in turn contain tables, charts, text, and graphics.  Select the sheet you want to print on the left, then enable page view by selecting the menu item:
    "View > Show Print View":
    Now you should see your content and how it fits on one, or more, pages.  If thie content is too big for one page use the controls and the bottom left of the window to expose the sheet controls:
    Here a table is too big to fit on one page:
    slide the "Content Scale" slider so the content fits:
