I'd like some help from an OP to sort out my speed...

Hi,
Don't want to be flogging the same old horse but i'm having similar issues to others that don't seem to get resolved.
Had Infinity for about 7 weeks. On install engineer getting 37mb at socket.
Week 1 - fabulous - 37mb streaming a pleasure, HD great for first time ever.
Week 2 - wobbled a bit.
Week 3/4 - 1mb sometimes less, reboot all boxes, follow troubleshooting and forums then report fault. Get variable performance usually about 1-8mb occasionally peaks at 16 but this seems to just be wee spikes not consistent.
Support says line fault.
Week 5 - great engineer visit - local cabinet only 20% full. Replaces corroded wire, changes faceplate and some wiring done by installer. Gets 39mb at socket. All is well hardware and line wise. He leaves and orders re-profile. Profile now 35mb or something.
I've never got back to how it was. It still hovers around 6-8 or less, with some spiking as before. My line profile is good and high and my line is capable.
So what do i have to do? Or is infinity just not capable of doing what i was promised and what i'm paying for. Virgin is undeniably consistently better and faster.Why is this happening to so many people?
Please help me!
Rob

  • I would like some help in determining the proper structure/implementation

    I would like some help in determining the proper structure/implementation for the following scenario:
    I have ~10 steel rods that have been equipped with a strain gauge.  The most I would have is ~30 steel rods.
    Each setup has had a 10 point calibration done.
    These steel rod/strain gauge setups are assigned a calibration number.
    The data would be grouped for each steel rod and identified by the calibration number. 
    I would like to use that calibration data to determine the Young’s Modulus for each steel rod and store that within the specific rod’s information.
    I want the user to be able to add new steel rods dynamically and the Young’s Modulus calculated and stored with it.
    There are two different types of rods.
    The cross-sectional area of the rod needs to be stored and that value is constant based on the rod type (so there are two different area values).
    After a rod’s calibration data is entered the first time, the data should be static so it doesn’t need to be re-entered.
    The user would enter the cal#, the 10 point calibration data, and the rod type.
    The user will only see the steel rod cal# on the FP.
    I am using a queue-based producer/consumer with event structure for the front panel interface.  So I’m thinking whenever a rod cal# was added I would call a subvi where the calibration data can be entered and then the Young’s Modulus could be calculated and stored.  An option to edit/review existing cal data should be available.
    LabVIEW 2010, Win 7.
    My initial idea was:
    Rod Arr – array of clusters:
    Rod Info - cluster:
    Calibration number – string
    Rod Scale cluster:
    mV/V – double array
    force – double array
    Young’s Modulus – double
    Rod type – enum
    Cross-sectional area – double
    I have not implemented this because I’m not sure how to implement that AND keep the data after it’s been entered.  And all of the bundling/unbundling anytime I want to access/edit any rod information can be BD consuming.  I thought a lookup table might work.  When I looked on the forums for a lookup table I was pointed in the direction of arrays/clusters.
    So I have two questions:
    What would be the best structure for the steel rod data?
    What would be the best data type for the calibration# that the user can edit (enum, ring, ?)?

    I would make a couple of small change to your proposed data layout (highlighted in blue):
    Rod Arr – array of clusters:
    Rod Info - cluster:
    Calibration number – string
    Array of Rod Scale cluster:
    mV/V – double
    force – double
    Young’s Modulus – double
    Rod type – enum
    Cross-sectional area – double
    For the calibration data, I would have an array of clusters rather than a cluster of arrays.  IMHO, this makes it easier to index through the calibration points, and makes it less likely you will ever have a situation where you don't have the same number of mV/V and force points.  I'd also move the Young's modulus, type, and area info into the Rod Info cluster.
    I prefer to store this type of configuration in the system registry, but that is more complicated and far from universal in the LabVIEW world.  A simpler way would be to simply pass the entire array to the "write to binary file" function.  If you do this, however, you might want to add a version number, otherwise it will be very difficult to maintain backwards compatibility if you ever need to change the data structure.
    As far as the control type, it depends on what the user is entering.  If the user is mostly entering calibration numbers already in the system, I would use a (system) combo box.  This allows the user to select an existing calibration number from the menu, but also to enter a new calibration number if they need to.  If the user will almost always enter new calibration numbers, then I would use a standard string control.  Either way, you'll probably want to validate the format of the number the user enters.

  • HELP! I need some help from true Mac fans! What should I buy???

    So, I'm moving to Japan, which has a couple of implications (other than the fact that my wife's parents and my parents are looking for any legal recourse to stop us from taking their only grandchild out of the country). More importantly however, I have had to sell my B&O TV and music system (different signals from the UK where we now live). I also decided to sell our stereo (or rather my wife decided it was too bulky so as long as it was not in the living room or bedroom I could keep it...). Finally, I need a new laptop for personal use. I have some friends that are absolute mac fans, who have convinced me to go over to the other side (i.e. yours).
    The opportunity I now have is to create a complete system as I need a laptop, something to play my music, a TV, etc. Given I am starting from a clean sheet I was hoping somebody out there could help me 'design' a complete set-up. My wife and I are keen photographers (both photography and video), we like listening to music, and watching movies (we definitely need a region-free DVD player), so what should we buy?
    Any input would be hugely appreciated.

    OSX also supports IME right out of the box.
    日本語　ー　わかりません
    It sets up pretty well, too; I like it more than Mircrosoft's implementation (language bar).
    Only thing to keep in mind is where you buy the MacBook; if you get it in Japan you'll get a Japanese keyboard, which displays most of the kana alongside the keys. You also get the conversion and switch keys on the keyboard itself, which is great.
    The MacBook Power Unit is multi-voltage, so no matter where you pick it up the worst you need is a plug adapter; although getting one from apple would be best. Just don't think you need to buy a new power unit, only the plug and cable.

  • Need some help from the management : A deeply dissatisfied customer

    Hi,
    I hope I am one of the very dissatisfied customers of you company. I bought a new T715 and it has already gone for a repair twice. I gave it for repair for the first time in october (ETA was 20 days and told by the service centre) and I got the phone after some 30days only after an intervention of a manager. Prior to that the customer care was saying that they do not have the parts and they have no idea about how much time the repair is gonna take. Surprisingly it took only 2day once the manager intervened.
    When I was submitting the phone on jan 14th 2011(work order number SE311MM110015), they again said that I'll get my phone back in 20 days. This time I expected that the service center guys will learn some thing from the past incidents and provide me a better service. But this time it was even worse. I did not hear from them for 35 days. So I called the customer care and had a long conversation with them on the service that is being provided but no-one including the floor supervisor(nishant) had a clue about what happening with my phone. I was startled by thier reply that they will start working on it as I have registered the complaint. Then I asked them what were they doing till now for which they had no idea. I asked for an escalation of this case to a manager which they refused. They said that I'll get an update after 48 working hours(5days).
    The episode continues. I called the help desk after 5days. Now their reply is that I will get my phone back on march 10 2011. So, it is some 57 days since the day i submitted the phone which is 3 times the ETA they promosed. Now when I ask them why is it taking so long I get the same reply as I got for the first time that they do not have parts. The I told them I cannot accept this kind of service from a company like sony erricsson for the second time. For this the floor supervisor harish said that If I want my phone back earlier they'll return the piece back to me without repairing and they are not responsible for this. This time I again asked for a managerial escalation which they again refused and asked me to call after 2 days. Can I atleast hope for a positive reply this time??
    I am perfectly okay with one device out of a lakh being defective. I understand this is the reason that you provide the customers a warranty. But I have some issues with the support which you are providing:
    1) Managerial escalations : I think I am entitled to talk to some one who can actually solve my issue when the lower level doesn't solve it in time. I do not understand why I am being denied the escalation which I did not find in any other support. They do not even provide me an email ID of a manager.
    2) Support process : What is the use of those processes in place where the people I am talking have no idea of what the next step should be. They do not have the database or knowledge of the previous cases. Even the floor supervisor have no aswers to the legitamate questions that the customer poses, they talk as if they are not responsible for these issues.
    3) Time taken: Taking some  days to provide the customer a mere update is not how a 21st century support should work.
    I hope you people agree with my ideas. And please I request all the managers who stumble upon this thread to reply and guide me about my next action.
    Thanks and Regards
    PRakash Josyula
    Work order number : SE311MM110015

    @management : Please help me... I did not get my phone back yet... this time they were saying that they will investigate into this case and this process can take 10 more days... When I asked for a manager escalation they dropped the call... And surprisingly they started dropping my calls which is not at all acceptable...
    Please managers... I need to talk to you... I need my phone back repaired....
    @others... Please lemme know a contact of a person in managerial cadre if you are ware of one...

  • Pulling out my Hair, need some help from experts out there

    Hi - I have been struggling with an issue for a week now and I was wondering if one of you can help me to solve my issue. I have done numerous searches on this topic which got me somewhat in the right direction but I'm still not getting the results I want. The end objective is simple, a non-stuttering video on YouTube. Sounds simple right?
    here is what I did:
    I have recorded some aerial footage with a GoPro 3+, added some effects in After effects, brought the results over in Premiere pro for some minor editing and then used Media encoder to get it to a format that youtube likes. My detailed steps are as follows:
    -Take GoPro footage (59.94 fps, 1920 x 1080 in H.264 codec) and transcode it through GoPro studio using the CineForm codec so it plays nice with AE (I keep my 59.94 fps and same dimensions (1920 x 180).
    -Load transcoded footage in AE (I checked if my composition settings are the same as the imported transcoded footage)
    -Apply effects (3d camera tracking, add some 3d text, some lights, environment layer) and render the clip out as a quicktime lossless file (PNG) – result is 3 clips from AE that I now want to bring into Premiere Pro for some editing
    -Import PNG file in Premiere Pro (I drag the clip to new sequence item so the sequence matches the clip I import in Premiere pro)
    -I make some minor edits in Premiere Pro (some transitions between clips, nothing fancy)
    -I then render out the footage using media encoder (or directly from Premiere, tried both) with the following settings:
    Format: h.264
    Preset: custom
    Export video and audio
    TV standard: NSTC
    Frame width: 1920
    Frame height: 1080
    FPs: 29.97 or 59.94 (results/problem is the same with both fps settings)
    Field order: progressive (greyed out – can’t change it)
    Pixel aspect ratio: 16:9 – widescreen
    Profile: main
    Level: 4.2 or 5.1 (same result for both settings)
    Render at maximum depth: checked
    Bitrate encoding: VBR, 2 pass
    Target bitrate: 8 or 20 (same result with both settings but obviously larger file with higher target rate)
    Maximum bitrate: 8 or 25 (same results for both settings)
    Use maximum render quality: checked
    Audio, multiplexer etc: standard settings, no change
    The rendered video runs smoothly on my mac but when uploading this video to youtube, the video stutters. I have tried multiple settings and can’t get the video to play smooth. Any tips or suggestions are welcome!
    You can watch the video here:

    Rick has given you what you need, he always does.
    But the task you've described is not simple at all. It's not really an After Effects issue.
    There are many sites that offer good recommendations for maximizing your youtube workflow so your video looks the best and plays flawlessly. Youtube offers a good set of parameters. Some of this stuff is worthless, too. You've got to be selective.
    Starting out delivering a full 1080HD clip is not necessarily going to work out for you. Try rendering out to a 720 file. It's far smaller so it will be compressed much less by it's upload processor. The playback may be smoother and your audience is not going to be able to tell the difference between the 720 and a 1080 clip, most of the time. 
    Encourage you to drop back someday and let us know how you made out with Rick's advice.

    Meg-
    I had to go out of town for a family emergency. I really want to get an iPod but the first 2 I had I broke and could never figure out how to get the songs on the iPod. it seems some songs I purchased fro iTunes will download and play but some will not I would like to know all the places I can get songs to play on my iPod (well, when I get one tat will work for me). I have a lot of CDs, should I get them on iTunes first. Do I look for other type of songs in various formats to install in the iPod like…oh, what are some of the formats that music can be downloaded in? mp4 all the various types I am sure you know what I am getting at.
    I want the classic but I am nervous being an exerciser. I do not care for videos but if the classic allows one to play them that is OK.
    I would like you to look at this ear plug store online that sell to artists for their recording, heavy duty iPod users, runners, etc. I need an awesome ear plug that will take the music to the next level but I have no idea what type will be best for me.
    Let me see if I can find that website. It was something like earphone Solutions but it might not be the exact one. They have a lot of the same ear plugs.
    But back to what iPod and where I can get the music. That is what I need help with ow. I do not want to pay for whole CDs, but songs that are good to workout to.
    If you get a chance and look at tat ear plug website and give me your opinion on ear plugs. This is where I am lost but need a much better ear plug and one that will stay in my odd shaped ears.
    Thanks for waiting. I am still with my pops in the hospital most of the time but I will get back to you.
    Blessings

  • Error 4261 - really need some help from one of you pros!

    I keep getting error 4261 when I try to burn CDs. I was able to do it for awhile just fine and suddently I can't anymore. Each time I try now I get partway through burning and it stops, the disk is ejected, and I get error 4261.
    Here's what I have tried so far with no luck:
    1. Decreased burn speed to 2x, on both iTunes and my CD burner
    2. Turned off my virus scanning software (Live One)
    3. Tried various makes of disks
    4. Tried burning a new mix with just songs that I had ripped from my own CDs (i.e., no "protected" iTunes)
    5. Updated to latest version of iTunes (7.3)
    6. Tried going back to version 7.2
    7. Ran diagnostics:
    Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (Build 2600)
    Dell Inc. Dell DM051
    iTunes 7.2.0.34

    If you have multiple drives on the same IDE or SCSI bus, these drives may interfere with each other.
    Some computers need an update to the ATA or IDE bus driver, or Intel chipset. If iTunes has problems recognizing CDs or hanging or crashing while importing or burning CDs, check the support site for the manufacturer of your computer or motherboard.

    Any suggestions???

    There are a few points of interest on your Drivers and downloads page at Dell.
    Dimension 5150/E510 (XP)
    Check to see if the firmware on your HLDS GWA-4164B HH 16X DVD+/-RW is up to date. (That's the drive itunes is identifying as an HL-DT-ST.) at least one of the Dell firmware revisions to that was urgent and related to reading and writing to media.
    Also,
    Check to see if the Chipset drivers for your Intel Chipset are up to date.
    Check to see if your Dell Dimension System BIOS is up to date.
    Check to see if the video adapter driver for your ATI Hyper Memory PCI-Express X16 (DVI/VGA/TV out) Radeon X300 SE is up to date.
    Once you're satisfied you're up to date, do you still get the 4261?

  • Would like some help converting an array of strings into multiple parsed string arrays

    Hello everyone.
    this is a very novice question and I sincerely apologize for that, but i need some direction!
    i have an array of strings:
    (('J01',), ('0', '0', '0', '1'))
    (('J02',), ('0', '1', '0', '1'))
    (('J03',), ('0', '0', '0', '0'))
    ect...
    i would like to know what are some of the best ways to gain access to this information (aka, parse it). The field lengths are not static and all those ones and zeros could very possibly be two digits at times (0 = off state, 1-100 = on state), so simply pulling characters out of a given position of the string will not always work.
    what i would like to achieve is to make either separate arrays for each desirable element, eg:
    array one:
    J01
    J02
    J03
    array two:
    0
    0
    0
    array three:
    0
    1
    0
    and so on.
    or maybe even a matrix (if that’s feasible).
    other than that I am totally up for suggestions!!
    thank you very much,
    Grant.

    Assuming fixed structure (not necessarily length of the different numbers or names).

  • Need some help from the InDesign community

    Tired of working with PPT because the client demands it? We're trying to dramatically change how InDesign can help.
    Take our survey so we can better undertand the needs from fellow designers:

    What you say, Buko, are you not praying for those special PowerPoint capabilities in InDesign!?
    The low-resolution bitmaps that are converted to lowest-possible quality JPEG by default? The rectangles that automatically appear behind text, and over anything 'behind' it? The now it fits in a box text and now it doesnt while the font didn't change? The ruthless clipping of lowercase 'g's at the bottom of a text frame? The appalling way "drop shadows" and "lighting fx" are blended on backgrounds in glorious 36 dpi? The fully automatic re-formatting if you open, print, save, or even look at a slide? Choosing between the default zero-width lines that disappear entirely in print or their very next step in thickness -- fat slugs of 1 pt thick?
    What ... what is it that bothers you?
