Hypothetical question

Does any body know if its possible to use the JMF to output broadcast quality video to television screens?
I work at a video bar, and I think it would be neat if the JMF could be used do do live internet streams AND feeds to our TVs. Its a pretty hypothetical though, because I'm new to the JMF
any replies appreciated!

Doesn't the whole JavaTV spec rely on JMF? So the answer would be yes.

  • Time Machine hypothetical question as to dates

    Hi all, now that I have your curiosity aroused here is my question.
    Supposing that I installed and update some time in the past but could not remember as to when, and have since discovered that this update was causing me problems and now wanted to invoke Time Machine to the date of the installation so that I can set up my computer just prior the update, as if it never happened.
    Is this possible, if so, how would I go about finding that date and re-setting my computer to that?
    I hope that I did not cause too much confusion with my explanation but thinking something and translating it to actual words is not always as easy as I would like.

    This would have been better asked in the TimeMachine forum.

    What kind of update? Leopard or 3rd party app?
    Leopard updates from autosoftware update are in your SoftWare update Preferences which give you the dates.
    Is this possible, if so, how would I go about finding that date and re-setting my computer to that?
    After finding date of update, boot into Leopard DVD and after language screen in menu under Utilities, you will find the restore function. It will lead you through the process.
    Bear in mind you will temporarily lose everything after that date but you can reinstall them after restarting the computer

    Only that this is the wrong forum for TM questions.

  • Hypothetical question about power adaptors

    I'm thinking about getting a Internet TV, the TV in question isnt wireless so was wondering whether its possible to have 1 powerline adapter into the hub, the other from the Vision box as normal but then buy another adaptor to plug in the TV? Would this be feasible or cause interference/slow the speed down etc?
    Cheers

    it wouldnt work, it'd be like splitting one ethernet cable and using it in two devices, its a great idea powerline adapters but very limited.
    Isn't that what routers/switches are designed to do though? 
    The limit as always though is the overall throughput design of the powerline adaptors or ethernet devices.

  • Hypothetical Question... iMessage sent as undelivered text message... Does it still send iMessage?

    I sent an iMessage, but it was not delivered as the receiver didn't have wifi or 3/4g coverage at that time, so I sent it as text. However I was out of coverage when I sent as text and was therefore wondering does the iMessage still send?

    I had sent it, it just hadn't shown up as delivered to the recipient. I didn't actually want the message to be sent, so I tried to send it as a text in airplane mode in the hope that this would override the iMessage and not send at all.
    I tried it with a friend this morning... It still sent as an iMessage when he turned his phone back on.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Question Re: connecting 2960C switch to 3750 stack, max number of VLANS limit...

    Hypothetical question: Let's suppose for example I've got a 3750 switch stack in a data center with over 300 VLANs defined on the 3750 stack, and that stack is also my VTP domain server. I wish to connect a small compact 2960C switch (which has a max limit of 255 VLIDs) as a VTP client to the 3750 stack's VTP domain and have the port at each end of this uplink connection set up to be an 802.1q trunk, but limit the VLIDs trunked to the 2960 to just a small handful (let's say just 3 or 4 vlans) via for example something like "switchport trunk allowed vlan 1,2,11,18" on the uplink port of the 2960C switch. Will the mere fact that there are hundreds of  VLIDs present in the vlan configs on the 3750 stack confuse the little 2960C switch's max 255 vlans limits?  Or will the 2960C with its "Lan Base" software happily show all 300+ vlans present in the parent switch stack in a "show vlan" command but simply only let you activate up to the 255 limit locally on that switch?
    Normally I'd just use a 3560C switch with IP Base software for this purpose and not worry about any vlan max limit, but we're having to penny-pinch the project and save a few hundred dollars on this compact switch purchase and I've never used the 2960 family before. The small compact switch will be used to host a non-Cisco, 3rd party wireless LAN controller with several APs that will have a handful of different SSIDS, each on a separate vlan, and will not be located in the data center, but in another building connected by a fiberoptic link that will carry the "trunk".  
    EDIT: I found an old discussion thread where someone else was faced with a similar scenario, and he discovered that even with using "switchport trunk allowed..." and "switchport trunk pruning..." commands on the interfaces at both ends of the link, that  the 2960 switch would still fall out of VTP client mode into transparent mode, which make you lose the benefit of having centralized management of a VTP domain. Seems the VTP protocol will always publish the full list of vlans from the server and this blows the mind of the small switches which  drop into VTP transparent mode because they cannot handle all that many spanning tree sessions. Looks like the 2960 simply cannot be used in a high-vlan-density network if you wish to preserve central VTP domain management features. Rats.

    The house network machine can browse and playback/stream video fine, however at the same time the machine on the wireless shows significant slowdown when browsing the web.
    The issue is defiantly on the wireless side, If i plug a machine directly into the switch and assign it a static ip, i do not get slowdown, so this is happening before it reaches the poe switch.
    So many factors affect the way to stream data up and down wireless.  Sure, I have seen >40 clients on 802.11a AND 802.11b radio of a single 1140 AP.  But this is not good.  Why?  Because wireless is a very "noisy" environment.  When one talks, everyone else has to stop, listen and waits for their turn.  The > 80 wireless clients connected to the 1140 AP had a detected maximum speed of 11 Mbps and they couldn't get any higher than that.  They couldn't get any lower than 11 Mbps because I've disabled lower data rates.   
    You said you hard-code the channels to 1, 6 and 11 but what is the co-channel interferrence like in your wireless environment?  

  • Site Design Question(s)

    Purely hypothetical questions here.
    1 AD Site.
    4700 workstations (4200 windows the rest mac/linux)
    Site mostly within a 2 mile radius all on 100Mbps with major buildings/network via fibre.
    1 remote site 15 miles away with 100 clients connected back to main site via a 100Mbps leased line. - this site is 100% 1Gbps to every desktop and has its own DP.
    We currently have 1 primary site running on a quad core Xeon with 32 GB RAM and a 4 Gbps network team. This primary site server also acts a PXE enabled distribution point which is in its own distribution group and is only assigned a a few local boundary
    groups/boundaries.
    Along with this site server there are 4 other site systems setup as PXE enabled Distribution Points. These systems are spread across the local and remote sites. As previously mentioned one of these is at the remote site 15 miles away. The other 3 are in
    other buildings around the local site. Again boundaries and distribution groups are used to define where machines on particular subnets get their content.
    My question is can anyone see a need (from the above) for a secondary SCCM 2012 site? Feel free to ask any further questions.
    My understanding is that  secondary site would only remove MP traffic, is this right?

    Hi Jason thanks for responding.
    Yes and No. We have experienced fairly slow OSD. Some of our task sequences are quite large and have a number of applications such as Autodesk Entertainment Creation Suite (15 gb) and Dassault Systems SolidWorks (7 GB) as well as Adobe Creative Cloud (11
    GB) and lots of other smaller apps.
    Now we understand that any TS with such large applications is going to take a long time. The problems we have seen is when running these task sequences in a computer lab of around 30 machines the deployment time increases probably due to increased network
    traffic. It can take up to 12 hours maybe longer for these task sequences to run. In some instances they fall over. As a result of this some of our customers complained and the organization brought in some external consultancy to try and find out why.
    There is a possibility that the report we receive from these consultants will recommend a secondary site server (I heard this on the grapevine). As soon as I heard this I immediately wondered why that would help with OSD. My understanding is it will have
    no impact on OSD and will purely act as a second MP which will still report back to the Primary site db anyway. In fact my understanding is Secondary sites are pretty much not required unless in a remote site with slow WAN access.
    I just wanted someone in the community (like yourself an MVP) to confirm my thoughts on this as I don't want to question the consultants reasoning and make a fool of myself if what I have heard is true.
    As for the problems we have been having with slow OSD I think our customers and management team are expecting an easy quick fix to the problem and I don't believe there is one. Deploying task sequences that are pulling down 30 to 40 gigs worth of data multiplied
    by 30 and in some cases more is always going to be a challenge and perhaps we need to look at alternative OSD technologies, unless you can offer some things that might help improve SCCM?
    Thanks again for your response.

  • Emac install disks question.

    Is it possible to use the emac install disks that came with a 1.25 emac on a 1GHz or earlier emac? A hypothetical question only.

    While it may be possible with some Macs, those which support that function are not well documented. And many do not, so it is better to get the retail installer disc instead. Plus the eMac's installer discs are only licensed for use with the eMac they came with.

  • Fuji 6500 raw question

    On another forum someone is claiming that the Fuji 6500 produces raw images that are affected by the sharpness settings in the camera. I don't know if this is true, but it leads to a hypothetical question. IF it is true, that means that the camera processor is altering the data, so does that have any impact on the actual raw image editing tolerance of the image?

    Just guessing, but ACR has a minimum screen resolution to make sure you can get to all the buttons and things.  If you have a netbook or other small computer with less than 768 vertical pixels then you won't see the ACR UI and the photo will open immediately into Elements.  If there is a way to attach a larger external monitor then you can try that and see if a higher resolution works any different.

  • Thunderbolt Question

    Hi,
    I know thunderbolt is a fairly new technology so nothing is ever certain, but I have a future looking hypothetical question. I'm shopping for a Macbook Pro at the moment and the new thunderbolt port is a large selling point for me because of the thought of external PCIe video cards becoming a possibility.
    I know the current speed is 10Gbit/s which might still be too slow for a high end dedicated GPU, but I've been reading that the speed could be scaled to 100Gbit/s in the future. If the speed were increased in a year from now, would these current ports be able to handle the increased speed or would more than new cables be needed? I know the cables will move from copper to optical, so would simply replacing the cable be all that's needed for increased speeds in the future?

    This was dated on 1/2/13. Interesting that optical was part of specs from the beginning.

  • Custom Functionality / New Functionality / Utilities question

    Hypothetical question for everyone :
    If you could change anything about HFM or FDM, what would it be and why?
    If you could have any new features / utilities / tools what would they be and why?

    Tony,
    The 2 GB limit your are referring to is most likely the User mode virtual address space limit which is not .NET specific and affects any 32 bit process in windows
    User-mode virtual address space for each 32-bit process
    Limit in on X86 - 2 GB (3 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE and 4 GT)
    To get the 3GB, you would have to alter the executable PE header to enable the flags referenced above.
    This is also referred to as 4-Gigabyte Tuning ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb613473(v=vs.85).aspx)
    Limit in 64-bit Windows
    2 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE cleared (default)
    4 GB with IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE set
    For a complete memory breakdown (and a brutal headache from trying to memorize all of these requirements), please see : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa366778(v=vs.85).aspx#memory_limits
    .NET does; however, have some memory limitations that can cause headaches for developers and users of their programs.
    The .NET limitation is not a 'per thread' or even 'per program' limitation, rather it's a 'per object' limitation. A heap object cannot exceed 2GB of contiguous memory. (no longer an issue with 64 bit versions). An example of this would be if you created an array object that would hold all records from an FDM file. If you had a data load file that was > 2GB AND the software were to load all of that into one object (say array or file object), then you would have a problem.
    With that said a couple comments :
    - Situations where needed more than 2GB per object are VERY RARE.
    * In 32 bit Windows environments, .NET would almost never be the limitation as the process is limited to 2GB and after overhead, there wouldn't even be 2GB of memory left for .NET limitation to become the issue.
    * In 64 bit Windows, not an issue anymore.....
    - Are you REALLY hitting the 2GB limit?
    * Pointed out earlier, the limit is up to 2GB of contiguous space. Perhaps due to a lot of instantiating/releasing of objects, the address space is fragmented and the most you can allocate is much less than 2GB?
    * You may also not be releasing other objects properly which would reduce the amount of available memory. It could be that the current .NET code has poor memory management and was just trusting Garbage collection to eventually clear everything up? For basic programs, this would work just fine. For something that could potential push the upper limits, this wouldn't work so fine .....
    * To look at both of these scenarios, you'd probably want to make use of the CLR Profiler tool as this could answer some questions.
    - There are workarounds for 2GB limit in Win 32 that are not that difficult to implement! If the FDM code base is relatively clean and this is "the" issue, I'd be curious to understand why they are not looking at work arounds? They could create a few 'memory manager' classes and plug everything into those and keep on trucking.
    Anyway, I find it implausible they are going to rewrite FDM simply because of a 2 GB .NET limitation. It could be a factor (especially if the base code is ugly), though.

  • Routing email from exchange 2007 to 2010 .

    Although this is an
    hypothetical question but still would be a great help if anyone could answer this :  " How email routing takes place from exchange 2007 user
    to exchange 2010 user. I have exchange 2007 and 2010 ,provided i am using single forest with same domain name in both 2007 & 2010 environment "
    Aditya Mediratta

    Hi,
    Firstly,I'd like to explain, message routing from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010 is message delivery between responsed Hub Transport servers:
    When a Hub Transport server queries Active Directory to determine the Mailbox server hosting the destination mailbox, it also retrieves the version of the Mailbox server. If the Mailbox server is an Exchange 2007 server that's in the same site as the Hub Transport
    server, the Hub Transport server will relay the message to an Exchange 2007 Hub Transport server in the same Active Directory site.
    For more information about the emails routing process, you can refer to the following articles:

  • I bought the wrong chip.

    This is more of a hypothetical question.  I ask because I am curious.
    My Mid-2010 Mac Mini worked cheerfully on 2GB of RAM until I got to Yosemite.  Since then the computer has been getting slower and slower.  When my HP LaserJet P1102w refused to print any more PDFs, I decided to "look under the hood."  Activity Monitor reported that I was using 2.94GB of Virtual Memory.   No wonder the Mini was slow.  I went to the store for more RAM.   Somewhere along the way, I got confused about the model year of the Mini.  I asked the sales clerk for 8GB for a Mid-2011 Mini.  He sold me what I thought was two 4GB modules.  When I got back to the Mini, I opened the package and found one 8GB module.   Not wanting to spend any more time on the project than I had already, I removed the two original 1GB modules from the Mini and installed the 8GB one.   It worked.   The Mini did everything I wanted except to print a PDF.   Quickly I determined that I had asked for the wrong modules.  I went back to the store and exchanged the one wrong 8GB module for two 4GB modules.   And the Mini is running again.
    The questions I have are:
    1)  Could I have continued to run the Mini on only one 8GB module?
    2)  Could I have installed a second 8GB module?
    BTW, the HP continues to refuse to print PDFs.  

    Yes, and Yes.
    Maximum Memory
    16 GB (Actual) 8 GB (Apple)
    Memory Slots
    2 - 204-pin PC-10600 (1333 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM
    The above is what you can install in the 2011 Mini.

  • ITunes 10.6.3 freezing on my Mac

    Hi everyone,
    I have a Macbook (version 10.6.8).
    I can load up iTunes (version 10.6.3) just fine, and I can scroll through the library without any problems. However, as soon as I play a song, iTunes will freeze. What's weird is that the track will play perfectly fine, but once it's done, I have to force quit it and open it back up if I want to play anything else. This also happens when I try to sync my iPhone 3GS (version 5.1.1) to my Macbook. It will freeze as soon as I plug it in, and I can't do anything with it.
    Has this happened to anyone else? It was working fine after I updated everything, and it just suddenly started freezing like this as of a few days ago. I really don't know what to do.
    Any help or insights would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Okay, really strange. As of right now, everything is working.
    So I guess my post is more of a hypothetical question if/when the problem happens again, haha.

  • Connecting iBook G4 to TV - cables OK, but not working

    Hi. I bought an apple video adapter and plugged this into my TV via an additional S-video cable. I have plugged in the audio (mac to TV via jack / RCA).
    The sound works fine. No image on the TV
    I have set the TV on the right channel (AV5 in my case is the S-video), and get moving grey stripes (vs. static image if not plugged in).
    Is there anything I need to do on the computer eg. set some preferences so it recognizes the need to output to TV?
    Any other idea? I'm very frazzled, as working out which cables to get already took me some time!
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Wow, Alex, this is like Christmas all over again! Thank you for being so patient with me and taking the time.
    My TV is a SONY BRAVIA 40" KDL-40S2010 model. From what I understand, I have:
    - HDMI
    - VGA
    - component
    - S-video
    - 2 peritels (I think they're called SCARTs in English)
    - and audio L/R of course in 4 different areas according to the above
    With my current ibook G4, you tell me I only have a mini-VGA out which is analog, so I'm happy to stick with the current S-video connection, because:
    - the alternative VGA connection would also be analog - no point in changing?
    - I don't see DVI-D on the TV and don't see the point of analog to digital anyway
    My only current problem is that I find the S-video connection surprisingly poor.
    I know not to expect the same resolution as a computer screen, but it is only just readable, and certainly excludes using the TV as an alternative or extended monitor for any purpose.
    For video it is lousy but watchable.
    I tried all three resolution options on the mac and played with all image formats on the TV.
    MY QUESTION: is this normal???? Something tells me that it can't be - not this bad!
    And since you're so kind, I'll test a hypothetical question: given my TV which I just bought and won't change for some time soon, if I upgrade my computer to a current MacBook Intel model (not a MacBook Pro), what would be the best audio & video connection to the TV?
    If you answer this you definitely deserve a bottle of (French!) wine if you come through Paris!
