Instead of tape on pins 3 & 11 . . .

I used a very small flat screw driver to straighten the pins in the motherboard agp slot which contact pins 3 & 11 on flashed cards. Works perfectly (g4 mdd with atx psu so no need to ever go back to adc), and retires my sawtooth agp from flashing duty.

I used one of those very very small and thin jewelers screw driver.
Unit was unplugged, but next time I'll wrap the screw driver with electrical tape
I had seen another post where someone was asking how to disable the 3 & 11 pins so they would not have to use tape. I could not find that thread so I posted this up. I flash a lot of cards so it's easier than always using tape.

I'm using apple's bluetooth keyboard and I need an easy way to switch between the text and numbers fields instead of tapping on the screen

I'm using apple's bluetooth keyboard and I need an easy way to switch between the text and numbers fields instead of tapping on the screen

While not in edit mode:
- if start typing numbers, then it enters number mode.
- if start typing text, then it enters text mode.
Using the arrow keys exits edit mode. So this should work for you:
1 Type text into a cell, which enters text mode.
2 Press Return to move to the next cell.
3 Press right arrow key to exit edit mode.
4 Press left arrow key to get back to the cell.
5 Type a number, which enters number mode.
Another method that requires more planning ahead of time is to format the cells as text or number before starting the data entry. Then when you navigate to a cell while in edit mode, you will be in the appropriate mode (without having to exit edit mode).
This all works fine for me. Hopefullly it does for you also.

I downloaded the iOS7 and I can't force quit the open apps. I was told, "Force-quitting apps is a little different though: Instead of tapping and holding on the icon, you flick a thumbnail up to dismiss it." Comments please & thank you

Sorry if I didn't make myself clear. Prior to loading 1OS7 it was easy to force quit applications that were still open by double clicking and seeing an a red "x" you had to click on.
It doesn't work that way with the new operating system and the instructions that were given "Force-quitting apps is a little different though: Instead of tapping and holding on the icon, you flick a thumbnail up to dismiss it."
Do not work.
I am looking for anyone who can help figure this out.

Got a fan with a three pin conecter instead of a four pin conecter

So I bought a fan for my HP Pavilion g6 and you know the little plug on the end of the fan wire, well it had a three pin instead of the four pin plug that the original fan had. And I made sure it was the right computer when we orderd the fan. I was wondering if theres a way to maby snip the wires and splice it into the old plug and then just join one of the wires together or somthing, becuase at the moment its running at full blast becuase it dosent have the controll wire to tell it what speed to run at. Please help!

What is the app to slide your finger across passcode instead of tapping?

What is the app so when you unlock your passcode you slide your finger across the numbers instead of tapping?

This app does not exist.
There is only one way to set a passcode, and it is either text or numbers.
There may be apps that set up their own lock, but this will not lock your iPhone.

Batch List: How to capture clips inc info, from disk instead of tape

We have a client's edit log on Excel, including reel no, in/out, scene, description, log note etc. Usually we import this batch list to FCP, then batch capture from DVCAM tapes, so all clips have all their info - great.
In this case, the material is already digitised and the client has logged from DVDs burned with timecode from the digitised material being placed in FCP sequencecs with timecode generator filter.
Is there a way to 'batch capture' clips from the digitised material, so that we keep all the client logging info, as we would if we were capturing from tape?

Shane has got it right - we want to automatically build a sequence using that batch list. Or somehow have FCP make new clips or subclips from already captured footage... so if your verdict is right Shane, looks like we may have to go the manual route...
although - just occurred to me - for each clip, I could go to the digitised source sequence, duplicate it, open copy in timeline, enter clip's in and out tc in the viewer - and that will give me a copy of each clip as a sequence - rename that sequence as per the clip, and we're done.
But it's still of course more laborious than batch capture from tape; this is a concern going forward as we are switching to XDCAM EX, so of course the route to enable this client-edit-logging ( http://www.creationvideo.co.uk/info/timecode/ ) that we've always offered clients is no longer valid as the material is already online....
Any suggestions still welcome!

Why is a 25-pin connector instead of a 29-pin connector?

Where can I found a cable to my 30" monitor? I tested an single link cable 19-pins without success.
I want to connect my MacBook Pro to a HP LP3065 monitor and use a resolution at 2560x1600 pixels.

Evidently you have a DVI-I cable. What you need is a DVI-D cable, which lacks the four extra pins in DVI-I that are used to carry an analog signal. Why anyone wants an analog signal in a DVI connection, I have no idea, and your DVI adapter doesn't provide for any, so there's no place for those four pins to go. You need a cable like this:
http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=102&cp_id=10209&cs_id=1 020902
You can enlarge the pictures to confirm that the ends of the cables match your adapter.
Here's a rundown on the different types of DVI cables and connectors. Scroll way down the page for diagrams showing the pins.

Trying to remove red pin from Maps, there is no button to remove it, folks . . .

Have had my iphone 4 for eight months. Updated to iOS 5 recently. Didn't have this problem before but I am UNABLE to remove the red pin from Maps.
Turned my phone off completely, and it seemed to remove the red pin on turning it back on. But this is not a convenient maneuver. I was able to drop a purple pin and remove it. But once a red pin is down, THERE IS NOTHING THERE TO REMOVE IT. I'm certain that there is a bug here that needs to be fixed.
Option 1 under "Directions", tap on the red pin, tap on the blue arrowhead, tap "remove pin" - - - but there is no such button to "remove pin".
Option 2, under "Directions", tap on "edit", I thought there used to be a blue "clear" button to remove everything, but there is none.
Instead under "Directions", tap "edit", tap the grey circle with a "x" inside to remove the address, but it does not make it go away, and the red pin always comes back. The blue cancel button on upper left hand corner also does not remove the red pin.
Please help. I already read multiple postings on this. I have not found the correct answer for my question. Thx.

There's no way to remove it. Either ignore it or update.

What are the ideal specs for a DigiBeta master tape when authoring a "widescreen anamorphic" 16:9 SD DVD (original aspect ratio is 14:9)?

I just received the masters for a new SD DVD. I would like to author a "widescreen anamorphic" SD DVD horizontally squeezed widescreen image stored in a standard 4:3 aspect ratio DVD image frame. (On 4:3 displays, mattes should preserve the original aspect ratio. On 16:9 displays the image will fill the screen at the highest possible resolution.)
Below I've listed the specs of the Digi Beta master tapes the producers have sent to me for digitizing. I'd like to know this: What are the ideal specs for a DigiBeta master tape when authoring a widescreen anamorphic SD DVD, using material with an original aspect ratio of 14:9?
I've also listed my guesses below. Please let me know if my guesses are right. If not, please suggest alternatives (and if possible explain why.)
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS OF EXISTING MASTER:
Tape: DigiBeta
Original Aspect Ratio: 1.55 (14:9)
Vid Rate: 29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect: NTSC - CCIR 601
Frame Size: 720 x 480
Anamorphic: Full-Height Anamorphic (16:9 image displayed in letterboxed, non-distored 4:3)
Display Format: 4:3 Letterbox
MY GUESS AT IDEAL TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS (for a DigiBeta, that is):
Tape: DigiBeta
Original Aspect Ratio: 1.55 (14:9)
Vid Rate: 29.97 fps
Pixel Aspect: Square
Frame Size: 720 x 540
Anamorphic: YES
Display Format: 16:9 Anamorphic (horizontally squeezed widescreen image)
Please feel free to ask for clarification or further information you need to answer my question.
Thank you so much in advance for your help!
Best, Noetical.
BTW, I can't wait for the day when everything has gone digital and we get digital intermediates instead of tapes to digitize!

Hi Nick...thanks for taking the time to reply to my question.
Nick Holmes wrote:
What you have there is a mess.
NTSC pixels are never square.
NTSC is 720x486, even when it is Anamorphic.
You shouldn't be using an already letterboxed master to make an Anamorphic version. Get the master that was made before the letterboxing stage.
When you make an Anamorphic DVD it should display as 16:9 full screen automatically on widescreen TVs.
The same DVD will automatically letterbox on 4:3 TVs.
Um yeah...duh. That's exactly what I was trying to explain in the preface of my question. I'm sorry if I didn't make it clear...all these things you mention are the reasons I'm putting together a list of the technical specs of the DigiBeta I need so I can have them send that instead of the stupid letterboxed version.
Look, I'm sending this request to some intern at their offices in England, asking for a master with which I can make an Anamorphic DVD. They already sent me this master, which as you and I both agree is an idiotic asset to use for these purposes. As such, I was hoping for advice on a more precise way of requesting the master that I need than asking for "the master that was made before the letterboxing stage." Upon reflection, perhaps I'll just do that. If you or anyone else has a suggestion about something I should add to my request that would improve the odds of them sending the tape I need, please repond. Thank you!
BTW, It's been a long time since anyone has responded to something I've written or said as though I'm an idiot. I remember now that I don't really like it. (Moving along...)

Car FM Stereo Connector 30-Pin vs 3.5mm Earphone

I have an iPhone 4 and I am trying to buy below Car FM Stereo adaptor. This one connects to the iPhone 3.5mm earphone connector instead of Apple 30-pin. I don't really want something that works with iPhones only, but works with other smartphone, so I prefer 3.5mm RCA connector (haven't decided which upgrade phone I want yet).
In iPhone 4, do you have to use the Apple 30-pin for the audio or can you use 3.5mm RCA as well? If you can, are there any quality degradation?

I've always used an RCA cable to my AUX jack. Perfectly pleased with the sound quality.

PCIe-1433 not showing 16bit x 2 taps as option in camera file generator

Trouble getting 16bit by 2 taps camera to display 16 bits. Instead, I get interleved columns of 16bits and 8bits, as if it is only doing 24bit. Camera file generator seems to configure it all correctly, oddly, it uses tap 1 and tap 3 instead of tap 1 and tap 2.
I noticed PCIE-1433 documentation doesn't list 2 taps by 16bit as an option,
http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/374001b.pdf
yet NI public information
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9B89C9FA43A6973A86257A62004658D5
states it can support 2 taps by 16 bit. Chances I need to update IMAQ drivers?

Hi dre99gsx,
This seems like it could be caused by using the wrong camera file. I noticed you said that it's a two tap camera and it's using a different tap configuration than what is intended. Have you tried creating the camera file manually using our Camera File Generator (http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/14207)?

MAP - how do I save pins?

I'd like to lay out a day's work, with locations all over the place, and place pins in the map, and have them stay there as long as I need them. But the red pins get wiped too easily. Do the purple drop pins stay on the map until I hit clear?
I am still hardcopying mapquest maps and creating a binder - because I don't yet trust that the materials will 'stay' on my map for two days.
Do you have any advice for best practices to layout and keep a couple days worth of info (phone, locations, routes) for deliveries and errands on the map app for Iphone 3G?
Thanks
John Cole

You can bookmark locations that you want to find again later.
To bookmark a location: Find a location, tap the pin that points to it, tap the blue arrow symbol at the right next to the name or description, then tap “Add to Bookmarks” at the bottom of the Info screen.
To see a bookmarked location or recently viewed location: Tap the bookmark symbol in the search field, then tap Bookmarks or Recents. Both bookmarks and recents remain until you clear them. Routes are also listed in your recents list.

Producing Tape Masters using DV Print to Video produces artifacts

Hi,
I'm working on a documentary project and a lot of the archive vendors are supplying us with QuickTimes instead of tape for the master versions.
I need to put these on tape, because they are for multiple edit suites and also for Avid suites. Its so we can use the tapes cross-platform but also save time and money by being able to auto-conform from tape in the Online suite, otherwise it wastes loads of time and money by importing these files from DVD.
I want to be able to create DV masters, a lot of the files we receive are uncompressed Photo-JPEGs (i know this by using Quicktime's Inspector command to display the movies stats, also from the Browser in FCP6).
I was under the impression Photo-JPEG was of a lesser quality than DV, as Photo JPEG is what is created when using offline video in FCP (albeit in smaller dimensions).
BUT, when I export these files as DV PAL uncompressed, the image is a lot worse, specifically very soft. I can print to tape, however.
So, I have tried playing out these files to DV tape in their native Photo JPEG compression, from a DV timeline, which doesn't work. I cant print to tape. I'm guessing because its using the Photo JPEG compressor? The image looks perfect, however.
Another way I've tried is to lay these native files in a DV timeline, then render using the DV compressor. The picture looks as clear as the native files, but there are horizontal/diagonal lines where different lines of colour appear on the image. For example, a woman's spectacles have zebra zig zags along the rims, but her face is fine.
I have tried using every different field dominance with no change, also interlaced and progressive scan, no change.
Needless to say, I need to make these tapes at full quality as they are all for broadcast.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys,
Thanks for the input.
I know, we are having a real war with the vendors at the moment, they should be supplying the tapes.
The situation is, they will supply them how they are free of charge, or create 8 or 10 bit uncompressed versions for us and lay them to digibeta at an extortionate price.
This is the first project I've been on when they operate in this way.
I need to make DV for a simple reason. COST.
We don't have a digibeta recorder, which cost about £30,000 and can't afford one. We are a small company. If it was up to me we'd buy the deck.
We have a digibeta player, so if they supplied us in the NORMAL fashion (quite annoyed at them at the mo), we could dig in 8-10bit uncompressed. I have to run this one deck between 4 suites as it is. We have plenty of digi stock to do this, too. Its a pretty stupid setup for a big project, but we dont have the money.
The files aren't being resized as such, they are supplying 720x576 PAL, if that's what you mean Jerry.
Jerry, I tried to change Motion filter to "Best", it retains the clarity of the source, but still has the horizontal lines around the woman's glasses. Could the quality of the codec they supply us with be the issue in the first place? It seems fine when you play it thru Quicktime player.
Another thought I had would be to run them off onto XDCAM (we have one Sony PDW-F70 recorder deck and plenty of stock as that is the format they shoot rushes/dailies with). Would this be possible to do this with my Macbook Pro? Like via Firewire? Especially if they supplied us the 8-10 bit files? I've tried to get it to work but can't as yet.
I need to get the best from what I have.
Any other ideas?
Thanks again guys
