Movies -- changing Artwork forces "full" AppleTV re-synch?

I don't know if this is related to a quirk in iTunes 8, or it's standard operating behavior for iTunes/AppleTV.
Hypothetically, say you had 73 .m4v children's movies in iTunes, synched to an AppleTV so the wee one can quickly/easily watch content without having to fumble with a DVD. Naturally, you own the DVDs; this is merely for convenience, and protecting the underlying asset from PBJ attacks.
So, you upgrade to iTunes 8. And then suddenly decide to spruce up the Artwork for each movie, pasting in a picture of the DVD cover art for each movie, because it looks cool in the new iTunes grid view.
Then you initiate a synch to get the new Artwork over to the AppleTV. Each graphic is about 60KB, so it should be quick, no?
Well, at least under iTunes 8, it's doing a FULL re-synch, copying every movie all over again--almost 120GB of data--which is taking forever over my pitiful G network.
Is iTunes/AppleTV supposed to act like this? Is it normal for there to be a total re-copy of a .m4v movie if/when you add/change/delete Artwork?

Thanks. I'm not sure how movie artwork is handled in iTunes...I didn't know that it could/would be embedded in the file itself. I guess I need to do some reading...I thought it was external to the file. If internal to the file, well, crud, I guess I won't be trying out new artwork for movies much!

Organizing Kid's Movies (including artwork) under TV Shows

With two young kids, I'm trying to keep all their programs together. So I created a "Kid's Movies" TV Show under the TV Shows tab in iTunes. I keep all the movies under the "Kid's Movies" heading o that I can access them easily.
The problem I have is with the artwork. When I click on the artwork to show all movies - the artwork defaults to the first movie in the list; and all other movies show the same artwork. I have artwork for each movie - I just can't get it to show.
This is also the same for my AppleTV. When I scroll through my movies - the artwork doesn't change - the only artwork that is shown is for the first movie.
Suggestions???

Forcing full outer join between two facts according to common dimensions

Hi everyone,I have an issue with the way obiee "joins" 2 fact tables regarding according to common dimensions.
Let's assume 2 fact tables F1 and F2 and 2 dimension D1 and D2.
Fi is joined to Dj thanks to IDs.
F1 and F2 have got aggregates sum(mes1), respectively sum(mes2).
The group by is performed on dim1 for D1 and dim2 for D2.
The following 2 queries work fine...but separately:
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes1) from F1, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2; //7 lines
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes2) from F2, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2; //8 lines
When I try to select dim1, dim2, sum(mes1) and sum(mes2), the following sql is created by the BI server:
WITH SAWITH0 AS (
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes1) c3 from F1, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2
), SAWITH1 AS (
select dim1, dim2, sum(mes2) c3 from F2, D1, D2 where ... group by dim1, dim2
select ... dim1,
     ... dim2,
     ... SAWITH0.c3,
     ... SAWITH1.c3
FROM SAWITH0 LEFT OUTER JOIN SAWITH1
     on SAWITH0.dim1=SAWITH1.dim1 and SAWITH0.dim2=SAWITH1.dim2
I get only 7 lines. It means I miss one line from the second query on F2.
The solution is to perform a full outer join. (I tried in TOAD and changing LEFT by FULL is ok)
How can I force the full outer join?
Thanks a lot!

If you use the fact vertical capabilities of OBIEE, it will normally perform a full outer join :

Check here for an example (replace the fact cross join by your second fact table F2)

Movie poster Artwork Out-of-Focus and blurry?

Is anyone having a problem with movie poster artwork imported into itunes (added in the get info menu area for artwork) that now appears "blurry" or "out-of focus" in cover flow, etc. and the synced version in appletv. This happened right after upgrading to 8.0.1. My previous movie posters are just fine that were imported "prior" to upgrading to itunes 8? What gives? They are somehow blurry or low-res?

I downloaded photos into iphoto
From where? Again, what are typical pixel dimensions of those photos that show blurry, i.e. how small are they?

I have just updated my Ipod to the latest ios.(deleting everything) and using different sources to get my music back it seems that every time i select multiple/individual songs on itunes i can change artwork but will not show up on my ipod?

I have a windows 8 computer and have recently updated my ipod to the latest ios and it has wiped my Ipod clean except for my photos. whilst trying to get my music back using different sources like CD's and stuff i cant seem to get any album art to load on my Ipod? I can go on itunes and highlight single/multiple items and change the artwork and my computer will confirm it but when I look on my Ipod it doesnt display any art work or allow me to change the artwork that is already there? i need help please!

Album artwork can be added/changed on songs via the iTunes Get Info menu item from the File menu. Note that music that you loaded from CDs will not have any artwork. If you want to aquire artwork you can try the File menu item Library > Get Artwork or you can download artwork from the internet, etc. Note that just changing artwork on your computer won't affect the iPod until you sync.
If the artwork is correct on your computer iTunes then delete all the music on your iPod by syncing with iTunes with no music selected. Then reload the music onto your iPod by again syncing with iTunes with all the music you want selected.

How do I print a list of movies with artwork by title

I can't believe that after all the years iTunes has been out that they have not fixed this glitch. I want to print a list of my movies, with artwork. The problem is, although iTunes shows that my movies are sorted by Title, the print insists on sorting them by Artist. This just won't work as the Artists contains a list of the actors in the movie. iTunes also does not give you the option on what to include or exlude when printing a movie list.
Are there any 3rd party apps out there that can import the movie database, with artwork, and print a grid list?

So I think I have figured out a work around last night. When I look at the "Get info" on a movie and go to the Sorting tab, I just need to copy the Name into the Sort Artist field. My movies finally print in alphabetical order with artwork. Now if only Apple would fix that glitch at some point.

White Screen When Trying to Play Movies / TV Shows Downloaded via AppleTV

Very frustrating, consistent issue with downloading movies or TV shows via AppleTV. Almost always results in a blank white screen with no sound and no video playing. No matter how many times I stop the video from playing, exit back out to the main menu, and restart the show, the white screen persists. The only thing that seems to fix it is to manually unplug the AppleTV, wait for 10+ sec, and then replug it in. Once AppleTV restarts, then I am able to watch the specific show I had been trying to watch. HOWEVER, the problem resurfaces as soon as I move onto the next movie or TV show.
Any suggestions on how to end this uber-annoying cycle?? I have all of the latest software downloaded. I have disconnected my iTunes library from AppleTV and then re-paired / re-synced the two (iTunes and AppleTV), and I have even tried resetting my AppleTV to factory settings (although given the volume of content I like to keep on my AppleTV, this leads to incredibly long timeframes to re-sync my AppleTV with my iTunes library). Any thoughts / suggestions / miracles would be hugely appreciated. THANKS!!!

Hi
Can't help you I am afraid, but I can tell you that you are not alone. Keep having exactly the same problem. Rented a Movie this evening and had to pull the plug half way through the download to be able to start and watch it.
I do have the Apple TV connected through a HDMI switch and wondered if it may be copy protection HDCP or something so was going to try it on component when I find my set of cables.
Will let you know the outcome

Help! camera movements changing b/w keyframes

Please help! I'm making a kinetic type video and the camera movements change in between the keyframes I set up. For example; if I want the camera to just shift to the right, I copy the frame position, and then change the X axis. When I switch between the two frames everything is right, except the frames that AE makes up in between is also changing the Y axis... but the Y is the same on each keyframe. I've tried looking everywhere for help, everywhere in the program, tried re-doing it mutiple times, restarting AE, ect and I cant figure it out... Please help!

You have a "boomrang" effect, and this can be corrected easily. Select your keyframes, right click and go to "Keyframe Interpolation" and select "linear".
In the preferences menu (edit > preferences > general) you can check the preference "default interpretation to linear" wich is unchecked by default.
Also, one of the neat new feature of AE CS4 is the ability to separate dimensions. It's really time saving when animating cameras or complicated x,y,z mouvement. For that, select your position property, right clic and select "separate dimension". Now you will be able to animate the x,y,z property independantly.

3Com elxl in Solaris 10: Force full duplex?

After being up for a few hours, my Solaris 10 (11/06 release, patched up to date), appears to virtually stop functioning network-wise; throughput goes to single-digits/second. I'm guessing this is a duplex mis-match, but editing /kernel/drv/elxl.conf to force full-duplex kills the NIC altogether, generating a stream of errors.
Searching this forum shows discussions of stuff like this going back to Solaris 8, but most threads are inconclusive.
Anyone have a final conclusion?

But when I want
a static ip by putting the ip in hostname.bcme0 it
gives me this in bootup(pasted only the interesting
bits):As the filename hostname.bcme0 already suggests you don't enter an IP adress there but a hostname. The IP adres is then picked up by checking the hostname against /etc/inet/hosts.

Issue with member move, change or delete from Planning web application

Hi
We need to make some basic editing (move, change or delete) of level 0 members of the cost center dimension from Planning web application instead of from essbase database outline. But everytime, we tried from the web Admininstration/Dimension drill down and did a Cut or Delete of a base member, the screen either becomes blank or hangs. And we would have to stop and restart the Planning web application server to bring it back.
Is this a bug or is there something we missed? We are using Planning 4.0.1 and essbase 7.1.1. Any advice on workaround is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
Have you tried running the planning server in the foreground from the start menu and check the output to see if there are any issues.
Also it might be worth trying to increase the java heap size, maybe you have a complex hierarchy and this is causing the heap size to max out.
Have you tried using another method to make changes to the hierarchy such as HAL ?
Cheers

How do i change widescreen to full screen

how do i change widescreen to full screen?
Is it possible?
I currently have handbrake, pspware, fcp studio.
what can i use.
please help?
I dont care if it takes a while. (4x3) looks better on the ipod

You can view widescreen video at 4:3 on your iPod with video. Just go into the Video Settings menu in the Video menu and turn widescreen off. After you do this, your iPod will display ALL video at 4:3 regardless of the video's aspect ratio.
Hope this helps!

Move from Trial to Full version

Have the FIM trial installed. Using it to migrate accounts from one Domain to Another.
We purchased the Full version.
How can i move from Trial to Full. Any docs on this ? need to make sure nothing happens to migration or i go on unemployment line :)

Should be enough to upgrade sync service to your licensed version. Remember to backup configuration and encryption key.
