Is PS ready for high-res laptop screens?

I am considering buying Dell Precision M3800 but the I am really worried that it won't be usable for PS.
Has there been any improvement in this issue?

Photoshop CS6 won't scale and won't be patched to scale. Only CC 2014 has the 200% adjustment so you can read the interface on the M3800 laptop.
Photoshop CC (v 14) won't either. CC 2014 (v15) will.
I'm not familiar with other programs in CS6, so you have to ask in their respective forums.
The other bad news is that files you see in your old laptop at 100% will appear half-sized on a high dpi screen. So I don't know how M3800 users get around that.
A recent update: Photoshop: Introducing scale the UI 200% for high-density displays for Windows
You should join that thread if you have further questions. Chris Cox is the senior programmer for Photoshop.

  • Am I the only one that got a high res glossy screen?!?

    Anyone else choose the high res glossy or am I the only crazy one?
    I pulled the trigger on a 15" with the high res glossy screen (first mac ever). After reading this board, perhaps I made a mistake and should have gotten the matte screen? I wasn't able to see the matte screen in person and now I am having second thoughts. The glare is a little annoying but only if I am "looking" for the reflection. It also seems all other displays are now predominatly glossy like my tv, iPhone, etc. When i compare my glossy mac to my Dell xps matte screen, it is so much more vivid! Perhaps I am comparing apples to oranges.
    I know this subject has been posted a million times (I have read many of them) but those with a glossy hi res please let me know why you chose it. Thanks!

    I picked up the high-res glossy screen as well and don't regret it for a second!
    I assume the question is about choosing the glossy over the matte and not about the high-res option (which was just a no brainer imo!)
    For me it just feels much more like a Mac; I don't really like the bezel around the screen on the matte ones and I definitely know what you mean about the colours seeming more vivid (though in reality, they really aren't)
    I appreciate that the glare may be an issue for some people, but i'm never really in an environment where it would bother me too much. Don't regret it just because others prefer the matte option. If the glare really isn't bothering you then there's no reason to consider changing. At the end of the day, everyone is different. Which is why they offer both options to begin with
    hope this helps, and be happy with your purchase; it's a beautiful machine, glossy or matte

  • Macbook Pro 2011, Graphic automatic switch - High Res, antiglare screen

    I have had a hugh problem with my new macbook Pro, 2011 with High Res, Antiglare screen. The automatic Graphic switching causes the screen to flicker about every 10 seconds when the comuter gets hot. It happens whenever a graphic intents piece of software has been active for some time and I return to the desktop. After two attempts to repair the computer I have installed gfxCardstatus and turned off the systems own autoswitching. This has eliminated the problem. But I hope that Apple will come up with a software update, that will make its own OS capable of controlling the autoswitch for the High Res screen.

    Hey andersand! Look, I don't have a definite solution for you but I do have a 3rd Party application that I use to manually switch between graphics cards! It's called GFXCardStatus and you can choose what graphics you want to use from a drop-down menu in your menu bar.
    You're right to assume that the graphics switching would cause the flickering and not something else, and I think that using this software would at least reduce the amount of flickering that occurs.
    Link here, http://codykrieger.com/gfxCardStatus and when you've installed it a tried it out, tell me if it improves at all. Good Luck!

    In a comparison it looks practically identical to the 125W G46-970a.  Except the G46 has a sound optical out--the features list says the Gamer board doesn't--and the board pics confirm that.  Board looks to have better software than the G46--possibly better sound output, maybe.

  • Is Nokia ready for high end market?

    It is the time of smartphones.  With the introduction of 3G, distance and speed are not a barrier at all.  Prediction is that, we will see a shift from laptop to smartphones, something we experienced a few years ago when laptop replaced desktops. So, is Nokia really ready for this competitve market?  I believe they are still not ready looking at the way they support N series and E series.
     My horror story started the day I purchased my N96, exactly 4 months back.   I have been watching the developments of N95 and wanted to own one.  Nokia released N96 by the time I made my decision.  The problem started when I started seeing low memory errors.  To my surprise, I noticed that Nokia uses phone memory for messages and N-gauge.  Configuring "mass memory" as the storage for messages didn't solve the problem completely as it failed to move all messagesI searched for some file explorer kind of applications to explore and clean phone memory.  I wish if Nokia had one.  The solution given to me by Nokia support was to reset the phone.  And, that cleared all data from my phone.  So, here are a list of my pain points
    - Does Nokia expect us to reset phone for every small issues.  Note that, these are not just phones, but smart phones.  More than contacts, I have my personal data, bookmarks, configurations, rss feeds, video feeds, radio stations, podcasts, GPS locations, blogging tools, applications etc. installed.  Getting back the phone in the same state will take days after a hard reset.  Do I agree if my laptop service center tells me that they have to format my harddisk everytime I take my laptop for servicing? Nokia Care's standard answer is to update the firmware (though I have the latest firmware) and reset the phone for any issues.  I only wish if Nokia trained their technicians to handle smartphones.  
    - N96 reboots when I use GPS 50% of the times (when you use it for longer duration either with google map or Nokia map or sports tracker)
    - Phone hangs when you move from wifi hotspot to other places while wifi scan is going on (I don't see this issue after upgrading to 12.043)
    - There is no way to restart the phone when the phone hangs.  You have to take out the battery and put it back.
    - I get disconnected frequently when I'm on long calls.  Though I can blame my network provider, I know its not completely because of them.  My N70 doesn't have this problem.
    - I have been having a long battle with Nokia support and bluetooth issues.  I tried to use Motorola HT820 headset with this phone.  Phone hangs or reboots 90% time when I turn on the headset.  Nokia's standard answer is that Motorola HT820 is not a supported accessory.  I agree, but is it acceptable if phone reboots or hangs when I tried to use an unsupported accessory?  Only way to reboot the phone when it hangs is to remove the battery and place it back.  Why can't they give a reset switch hidden somewhere if they can't write bugfree code (and nonone can).  I have been doing this for the last one month while trying to convince Nokia that they have a problem with their bluetooth stack. I can prove that it happens only with A2DP profile.  I have been using a plantronics bluetooth headset without any problem.  I'm also using HT820 with my Nokia N70 which supports only HSP profile. Unfortunately, N96 doesn't provide an option to choose what profile you want to use when you pair a bluetooth headset.  I could have listened to music from my laptop (A2DP) while the headset is connected with phone (HSP), and I don't miss any calls.  I'm pretty sure it is a bug in their bluetooth stack; only if I could talk to one of their developers and explain the problem.  
    - You know the commotion Nokia created when they removed VoIP stack from N96.  Thanks to Fring, I use VoIP and skype with N96 today.  
    - The NetWork stack is so cumbursome.  Each applications have to define their own access points and rights.  Why can't it be in the platform level? Just imagin you doing this on your laptop for each of the applications.
    - Its better not to talk about the battery.  It comes for less than a day for me.  But, you can always blaim the usage.
    How do we make Nokia listen to issues?  Do they have any customer feedback forum (please, not through the Nokia Care centers)?  I wish if they improve, after all, I still love my phone (Yes, I paid a good amount for this phone)

    N96, FW: 12.043

    Hi Jaimon,
    I'm with you - I've had my N96 nearly six months and am VERY disappointed.
    I just bought a Parrot Party Bluetooth speaker. A GREAT little unit. Needless to say, the implementation of A2DP leaves a LOT to be desired on the N96. Basically, it's like listening to a CD that skips every 10 seconds. The N96 cannot keep up the stream of data fast enough. It's VERY annoying.
    I checked to make sure no other apps were running to make sure it wasn't something else running that was causing the problem, but no, it's rubbish (I have firmware 12.043). Other people in my office can connect their Blackberries etc... no problem. Plays back beautifully, but my N96? Piece of garbage.
    Nokia have a LOT to answer for! Like you say, a phone that costs more than a laptop and this is the level of service we get. I have written TWICE via their online customer service form, and on each occasion received an email saying I can expect a response in 72 hours. I've never received ANYTHING!
    Also, I had a Plantronics headset - Explorer 340. A nice headset. Same problems as mentioned elsewhere, would intermittently be disconnected and reconnected - very annoying. Last week, it paired but would not connect. Plantronics' support was wonderful! So efficient. They're exchanging the unit with a newer model (brand new) because they cannot replace the old model. Maybe that will work better. Meanwhile, because I NEED a headset for driving (and the supplied stereo headset is pathetic - cable too short, microphone ends up around your waist (USELESS!)) I bought (*gasp*) a Nokia BH-101. Paired fine with the N96 (as one would EXPECT), but the headset itself is lousy - such a poor design. I challenge anyone to make it fit in their ear comfortably enough as to be able to HEAR the bloody thing while driving. I have to keep one hand on it to keep it in my ear. USELESS NOKIA!
    What is it WITH this company?! Why have they lost the plot?!??!

  • Using ext monitor for timeline and laptop screen as preview?

    is it possible that when i connect my external monitor to my macbook pro i can use the external for the timeline and the laptop screen for the previewing?
    cheers

    I'm trying to do this exact same thing and am coming to the conclusion that it is not possible given my setup. I have a MacBook Pro 2.2 Intel Core 2 Duo with 4GB of RAM and a NIVIDIA GeForce 8600M GT Graphics Card. I'm running FCS 3 and all media is read from a 1TB Seagate 7200 SATA drive read through a SeriTek 2SM2 PCI card in the Express Slot.
    You can easily arrange your monitors to do what you're asking (as outlined above), but the problem is the Graphics Card is not powerful enough to run both monitors and you will experience dropped frames with any HD codecs. I've tried XDCAM, DVCPROHD and ProRes 422 -- all dropped frames immediately. In fact, even if I use the "closed clamshell" mode, so the graphics card is powering ONLY the external monitor, I still get the same dropped frames issue. The only way I can edit or play back without dropped frames is by using NO external monitor whatsoever.
    Is this a unique problem for me? Is there a solution to this? Would the new 17 inch i5's with a NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M (512MB) be able to power an external monitor?
    EDIT: And the External Monitor is a Dell 2408WFP connected through the DVI port.

  • Help needed for high res windows compatible

    Hi guys,
    Could really do with some help. I'm failry new to video editing and I have been asked to supply a high res movie that is compatible in windows. Are there any settings in Compressor that allow you to do this? My movie is currently in FCP 6, its 1440 x 1080.
    If there is a setting that allows a high res format in both mac and windows, that would be even better!
    Any help would be appreciated!

    H.264 with the data between 1500 and 2000 should give you great results.
    Unless the PC people don't have QT this should never be an issue.
    If people don't need full res you may want to go down to 1280x720.
    If your show was really long file size could become an issue but a 10 minute show with AAC 128 audio should come in under 100MB at 1280x720.

  • Swapping low res for high res footage in iMovie 11?

    I have been using iMovie HD and 11 for a while now and somehow I missed the whole "convert your footage before you edit" train. I have edited several videos, all of which I was importing and editing the GoPro footage without converting it to Apple Prores like I learned I should be doing. So, obviously, I have learned the error of my ways and I am now converting all my footage prior to editing.
    Is there any way to save all my old videos? Is there a way to do a one to one swap of all the footage? I vaguely remember reading on a forum that someone was editing in a compressed format and then prior to exporting somehow swapping all the footage to save time on the front end and to spare his computer and iMovie the trouble of using those huge files.
    Is this ringing a bell with anyone?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Cheers

    To my knowledge, imovie 6 will not do this.
    iMovie 11 will allow you to select an h.264 file (or Event) and optimize it to Apple Intermediate Codec. If you do it this way, your project will be intact, and your h.264 clips will go to the Movies/iMovie Original Movies folder.
    iMovie 11 will only be able to use ProRes 422 if you have Final Cut Pro installed on the same Mac. iMovie will not automatically optimize to ProRes 422.
    Final Cut Pro will allow a lot of flexibility in swapping media. You can edit in Pro Res Lite and then switch to Full Pro Res when you are ready to make the final movie, for example.

  • Requirement specs for high-res end product

    I am producing a short corporate in Premiere Elements 8 using a combination of an existing MPEG and a series of JPEGs. I have only ever produced videos for the web before, but the the finished product will be projected onto a large screen. I would like to avoid pixellation as much as possible. Could anyone advise me as to what the best input and output settings would be for this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Exactly how will the signal be fed to the projector, i.e. from a DVD-Video in a DVD player, through a laptop, etc.? Will you have to provide the AV file to a laptop, other than one that you use, such as an unknown laptop at a conference?
    The exact delivery scheme and the mechanics of this can dictate a lot. That, and the questions that Neale asked. If your MPEG is say DVD-Video resolution, there is nothing to be gained by going HD, as it will be SD and will determine the resultant quality. It will also dictate your Project Preset. You can then Scale your JPEG's to match that.
    Good luck,

  • Looking for high res video & good audio on my TV, plus use VPN.  Is mac mini what I need?
