Need help with daq problem

Hi,
I need to generate a clock with a period of 20 micro seconds, duty cycle of
approx 20% and a data line as well as an address line all linked to the clock
pulse.
I have tried many different solutions, all using the Daq PCI-1200 but nothing
seems to work correctly. Usually the system bombs and I have to do a manual
reset to over come the problem.
Any suggestions?
Ken

You'll need an external clock, expecially under Windows.
Windows ticks with appr. 18 Hz, and the CPU tick isn't always available
when Windows tasks multi.

Need help with getResource() problem under weblogic 6.1

Hey all,
          I've got a serious problem that I can't figure out. This should be really
          simple - but it's alluding me. I have an ear file with a number of servlets
          inside it. This ear file also contains a resource that my servlets want to
          read from. This resource is located (within the ear file) at:
          "/content/structure/a.txt". The file contains raw ascii.
          To have my serlvet read from this file, I thought it would be as simple as:
          URL content =
          servlet.getServletContext().getResource("/content/structure/a.txt");
          // pw is an instance of PrintWriter
          pw.print(content.getContent());
          However, when I execute the above I get the following exception:
          java.lang.NullPointerException
          at
          java.net.URLConnection.stripOffParameters(URLConnection.java:1011)
          at java.net.URLConnection.getContentHandler(URLConnection.java:979)
          at java.net.URLConnection.getContent(URLConnection.java:581)
          OK, so fine - I figure that I'm new to this. The documentation for the URL
          class tells me there is another way around this. It says that rather then
          calling getContent() directly, I can open a stream on the URL and read from
          that, like so:
          URL content =
          servlet.getServletContext().getResource("/content/structure/scenario2resourc
          es.txt");
          FileInputStream fis = content.openStream();
          but when I do this I get the following different exception:
          java.lang.ClassCastException: weblogic.utils.zip.SafeZipFileInputStream^M
          at Utility.writeFileToOutput(Utility.java:134)^M
          Apparently this thing is trying to return a web-logic-specific stream (which
          is incompatible with an FileInputStream) - which I don't want to use or
          learn about since I want my stuff to work under other webservers.
          Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? This should be simple.

Wenjin,
          I appreciate your response. I tried treating it as a normal InputStream -
          but it didn't make any difference. Here's what I did:
          URL content =
          servlet.getServletContext().getResource("/content/structure/scenario2resourc
          es.txt");
          InputStream is = (InputStream)content.getContent();
          And here's the exception:
          java.lang.NullPointerException^M
          at
          java.net.URLConnection.stripOffParameters(URLConnection.java:1011)^M
          at
          java.net.URLConnection.getContentHandler(URLConnection.java:979)^M
          at java.net.URLConnection.getContent(URLConnection.java:554)^M
          at java.net.URL.getContent(URL.java:807)^M
          at Utility.writeFileToOutput(Utility.java:134)^M
          You can see that it is definitely breaking somewhere in getContent().
          If you have any other ideas, I'd appreciate hearing about them.

Need Help with Scrolling Problem

I have a JTree displayed in scrollpane. Based on search criterial I select the nodes where the search criteria is found. If the match is located off the screen further down into the tree, the node is highlighted but the scrollpane doesn't automatically scroll down to show it. Any help with this problem is appreciated.

Wow.. Thanks. I thought I would need some fancy code to handle this problem. scrollPathToVisible did it for me. Thanks.

Need help ASAP- Audio Problem

I am using a Vixia HV40 Canon camera with an external mic (Aazden 105 series UHF) with Final Cut Express 4.0.1 to create a video. When I listen to the audio output through the mic or the camera, everything sounds fine, but after I capture the data onto my computer, the sound comes with a very fuzzy background noise. I don't think that there is any problem with the camera or external mic (I have had a sound technician check them to see if there was something wrong with the sound), but I don't know what to do to fix the problem.
Recently I have been getting an error message when I open FCE saying, "Unable to locate the following external devices: Built-in audio," could this have something to do with my problem? Also, why is it saying this?
I can't seem to find anything online that relates to this problem, please help!

Wondering why you're using the "Voice-over" tool instead of the "Capture" tool. Are you recording live audio or capturing (video and) audio from something you pre-recorded?
Normal practice for me, in capturing stuff I've recorded on my camera, is to connect the camera to the computer (firewire cable), launch FCE, and choose "File/Capture."

Need help with a problem after cloning my HD....

I recently cloned my HD to a backup drive. I did an erase and install of Tiger on my original drive. I recently cloned everything back onto my original drive from my backup drive. Now when I go to boot up on my original drive, for the first time ever I must type a Username and Password to log on to the computer. Trouble with this is, I tried my username and password and it would not work. I double, triple, quadruple checked my spelling and tried different combinations just in case i was being stupid, NOPE. It won't let me log on to my main HD. Can anyone help with this?

Let me get this straight. You did
1: Cloned your original boot drive to a external - not a problem
(did you boot from the clone to check it out?, did you use cloning software or???)
2: You erased your original boot drive - ok no problem.
3: You then installed Tiger on your original boot drive - ok no problem there
4: But you cloned from your clone back onto your original, freshly installed Tiger drive?
Why did you do this?
Cloning copies the whole drive, all the little hidden stuff, copy protection etc.
That's why it's called a clone.
Did you mean to say you copied certain folders/files from the clone onto the new Tiger install on your original boot drive?
What folders/files was these?
You need to copy the contents of certain folders inside your User folder, not the folders themselves.
What software did you use to clone with?

2. create java program that will translate the input from numbers to words. e.g. input:123 output: one hundred twenty-three.
i have an idea to use a switch case statement. but i have no idea on how will i be able to do it. so if you guys can help me.. well then thankies..

Welcome to the Sun forums. First, please note that you have posted in the wrong forum. This forum is for topics related to Sun's JavaHelp product. You should post your questions in the New to Java forum.
As part of your learning, you will have to develop the ability to select an approach to a problem, create a design that reflects that approach, and then implement the design with code that you create.

We can comment on the individual questions that you may have, and point out problems and errors that we see in the code that you develop.
As a hint, when you are stuck, forget about Java and programming. Just start with a sheet of paper and a pencil, and figure out how to layout the task on paper. The consider how to translate that to programming.

Need help with audio...

Hi,
I need some help with an audio issue...a deep, buzzing sound which is so dominant, i can barely hear the rest
the situation:
older VHS tape (about 10 years) - i know some of you just cringed the video quality isn't the greatest, but not the worst. the audio is terrible.
transferred with my canopus av300 to my mac (g4 d1.25) - no issues
using FCP 4.5
i tried the AUGraphicEQ and since it was so deep, i reduced the following to 0:
800
6300
8000
reducing anything else doesn't seem to work
i've also tried cleaning in soundsoap both before using the AUGraphicEQ and after. If i clean it with SSoap before AUGraphicEQ, it sounds far better than the original track, but a low buzz is still present. using the EQ again doesn't seem to do much.
the camerawork was done on a tripod about 30 yds back. no mikes were used either. just the camera capturing both a/v.
Any thoughts on anything else to try? Any other filters? I fear the buzz is just with the main sound and no chance of completely killing it.
I can email someone a small sample file for them to play with if you like.
i'm really at my wits end b/c i would like to ensure i give the client as best i can (the other option would be to send the tape to a colleague's audio expert, but the price is something my client doesn't want to pay
Cheers,
Keebler

Got SoundTrack Pro? It will perform miracles with getting rid of unwanted sound. It's a matter of isolalating a few frames of the sound where no one is talking, and then using a simple command to remove that sound by itself from the entire audio track.
There is a possibilty that the Hum remover in FCP 4.5 might help...

Need help with audio transfer!

I'm having problems with audio in idvd. The problem is with clips that were pasted into an imovie project from a different imovie project. The idvd preview seemed fine, but when I burned my disk, the audio associated with the pasted clips was inaudible. The same problem occurred with clips that I had "shared" as a quicktime movie and then imported into idvd. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I'm a total amateur!

I like many need help with a problem of burning cds

I am trying to burn a simple playlist to a memorex music cd-r. Every time I try a message pops up with the error code of 4261 and then pops out the cd. Any help will be very much appriciated as I am at my wits end with this problem. Thank you so very much!
Windows, Media Center PC

Place the PSU in and connect the 20 pins connector and the 4 pins connector will do.
You may also try swapping the RAMs with another one to test f the RAM is to be at fault.

Please help with audio problems, thanks!

Hi, I'm relatively new to DVD studio Pro and so far the manual has been useful but i've run into some sound related problems. I'm a composer/sound designer and this DVD is to be my reel so these are fairly integral issues to its success.
First, I want to add a sound effect to each of the roll over states, so one sound for the "over" and one sound for the "down" state. Currently i can only add audio as the backing track for each menu.
Second, whilst most of the items on the dvd are movies that include my music, I also want to have a page purely of audio tracks which play when pressed without changing the page. How can i do this? The only DVD i've seen this done on is "The Thin Red Line" extras, promoting the soundtrack to the film.
Thanks.

Welcome to the forum/discussions CC!
Sorry to have to inform you, but unfortunately layered menus aren't supporterd with audio in DVDSP, and technically what you're attempting is a layered menu-type function - although it just may be possible with scripts, I doubt it.
Your second request can be done however and there's several ways to go about doing it.
I like DVD@ccess but others would recommend a method of simply placing the audio files in the built file of the DVD making them accessible to users.
Another method I could suggest is to make a menu page exactly like the one you want to look the same and have the song you'd like to play as the music track for that duplicated-menu in question - set the target of the link for the song in the menu to go to the menu that has that song as the music track. Repeat that for the number of songs you'd like to have this feature.

NEED HELP WITH AUDIO CAPTURE PROBLEM

I've been filming for the past 2 weeks on a MiniDV camcorder. Heres the problem, I didn't check the audio bit rate before I started filming. Instead of the normal 16 bit, I used 12 bit. Now when I try to Capture the footage, the audio is out of sync and final cut says something along the lines of "The sample bit rate is different than the source. Change the settings to match the source."
I tried to go into the settings menu and change the bit rate to 12 bit, however I was not successful. Can someone please help me with this situation? Thanks for looking. Hope we can figure out a solution.
-D.

Thanks for replying Les. I tinkered with some stuff and it is still not working. I thought I was able to change the "Capture Preset" to 32kHz, instead I was only able to change the "Sequence Preset". The Capture Preset is still set at 48kHz and I have no idea how to change it. Hope you might know what to do. Thanks again for the help.

Need help with video problems

Hi!
Back in May I was having problems with video on my Mac. I was helped by this site and am hoping for more help. I downloaded the realaudio, but was still having problems. I assumed because I was on dial up. It was so slow. It would take forever to load and then play for a few minutes then need to load some more. I now have DSL and was looking forward to kissing the video problems good-bye! My new problem is that when I try to watch or listen to anything like innertube it "stutters." Is there something else I should be doing? How can I fix this problem?

With those specs you should be absolutely fine. I would suggest that you update to 10.4.10 at least (download the full Combo updater). Once you are on that:
These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, QT 7.3 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5)
Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.9 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
Adobe FlashPlayer from http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash
(You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS. This: http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/index.cfm?email&NewsID=19845 may also interest you.)
In Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
See also the very informative post from QuickTimeKirk dated Dec 3, 2007 in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1268489&tstart=0
In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them).
Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them).
Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz.
Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
The world should now be your oyster!
You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
