Question about idvd project with multiple movies

Is there a way to drop in multiple movies and have each movie play right away when it is clicked? Right now the first movie plays on one click but the rest go to another menu where you have to click play movie. I just want my main menu to show the 4 movies I have and then immediately play them when they are clicked.

You can put them in an iDVD slideshow and they will play consecutively. But don't assign a transition in the slideshow:
Click to view full size
It won't matter what slide duration you select.

A simple question about wrong sorting with multiple sort columns in Excel 2010

Hi, everyone! I have encountered a problem that I don't know how to explain.
So I post it here because I don't know if there is another more relevant forum...
I have a data sheet with the students' scores for the course.
All the data were generated with the randbetween function,
and pasted with the values.
To rank the students by their performance,
I did the sort with the column "total score" as the first sort-column
and "final term" as the second.
The weird thing to me is that the order of the data seems problematic.
That is, all the rows are sorted correctly with the first sort-column.
But for the rows with the same values of the first sort-column,
there are some rows whose values of the second sort-column are out of order.
(please look at the data file at
www_dot_kuaipan_dot_cn/file/id_67204268108546068_dot_htm
Please change the "_dot_" to the real literal dot.
Especially the rows with 56.7 as the first sort-column value
and some other values near the tail of the list.)
I tried to manually input and sort the same values of both columns
in a near-by region. The result was correct.
When some friend copied all the data to paste in Notepad,
and reload them in excel. The problem disappears.
Some friend also tried to wrap a round function at the values of the 1st sort-column,
the sorting order became correct!
But they could not explain why either.
How confusing! I even tried to swap the first and secod sort-column;
the output was right.
All the data were generated by randbetween function and pasted with values.
Where could all the special characters, if any, come?
Can anyone give me an explanation? I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance!

Re: Sort is not in proper order
Sounds as if the data includes spaces or hidden characters that are affecting the sort.
That is indicated by the fact that manually entering the data resolves the problem.

Question about dependent projects (and their libraries) in 11g-Oracle team?

Hello everyone,
I have a question about dependent projects. An example:
In JDeveloper 10.1.3.x if you had for instance 2 projects (in a workspace): project 1 has one project library (for instance a log4j library) and project 2 is a very simple webapplication which is dependent on project 1. Project 2 has one class which makes use of log4j.
This compiles fine, you can run project 2 in oc4j, and the libraries of project 1 (log4j) are added on the classpath and everything works fine. This is great for rapid testing as well as keeping management of libraries to a minimum (only one project where you would update a library e.g.)
However in 11g this approach seems not to work at all anymore now that weblogic is used, not even when 'export library' is checked in project 1. The library is simply never exported at all - with a noclassdeffound error as result. Is this approach still possible (without having to define multiple deployment profiles), or is this a bug?
Thanks!
Martijn

Hi Ron,
I've tried what you said, indeed in that .beabuild.txt when 'deploy by default' is checked it adds a line like: C:/JDeveloper/mywork/test2/lib/log4j-1.2.14.jar = test2-view-webapp/WEB-INF/lib/log4j-1.2.14.jar
Which looks fine, except that /web-inf/lib/ is empty. I presume its a sort of mapping to say: Load it like it in WEB-INF/lib? This line is not there when the deploy by default is not checked.
I modified the TestBean as follows (the method that references Log4j does it thru a Class.forName() now only):
public String getHelloWorld() {
try {
Class clazz = Class.forName("org.apache.log4j.Logger");
System.out.println(clazz.getName());
catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return "Hello World";
In both cases with or without line, it throws:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.log4j.Logger

Secondly I added weblogic.xml with your suggested code, in the exploded war this results in a weblogic.xml which looks like:

The only thing from me is that container-descriptor tag, the rest is added to it during the deployment. Unfortunately, it still produces the same error. :/ Any clue?

Burning iDVD projects with external LaCie burner

I recently purchased a LaCie DL d2 DVD RW with LightScribe 16x from LaCie (12/07/2007). The primary reason for my purchase was that I wished to create/burn iDVD projects on my iMac computer. The reason that I needed this product was due to the fact that, when I purchased my iMac, I made an error and ordered the iMac with a combo rather than SuperDrive. So, while I am able to create iDVD projects and iMovies, I am unable to burn DVDs with my project.
Thus far, however, I have not been able to burn a DVD with any of my products. When I attempt a “burn” the Creating your DVD menu appears and when I put in a blank DVD+RW 4x 4/7GB, it goes through the process (Prepare,,, Process Menus... Process Slideshows... Process Movies and Burn procedures). The DVD is then ejected and a message says its done and is “cleaning up.” However, that message never leaves the screen and when I click on the “Cancel” button, nothing happens. The iDVD application seems to lock up and I have to do a “force quit.”
I have tried this with three different project, all with the same result. When I place the supposed “burn” DVD in the Combo Drive, it spins for a while and kicks the DVD out.
I have also tried launching Toast Titanium (software that came with the LaCie burner). However, I see no place where I can “drag & drop” a iDVD product to the “drop zone.’
Can you help me out. Should I be able to burn iDVD projects with this unit? If so, what am I doing wrong.
Thanks for any help that you can provide.

Idvd project with video and slideshow for dvd-rom file access

working on an idvd project with both a video section and photos in a few photo galleries. its' a slightly more complex project, but still only 2gb on a 4gb disc. After we burn (with all dvd-rom contents checked, and advance>edit dvd-rom contents shows photo files all there) the finished disc doesn't have files available in the dvd-romcontents! its' driving us mad as simpler projects are burning properly, with both photo and video files available. Could there be some kind of conflict occurring? does anyone have any ideas?!

Steve,
It sounds like Windows Movie Maker Live was used. The regular WMM will Export to DV-AVI Type I, which will Import into PrPro much better.
I would recommend converting the WMA/WMV to DV-AVI, and Importing that into a DV NTSC (if you are in NTSC-land) Project.
Then, you would use Encore to do the DVD authoring. There are several ways to get the material on your Sequence into Encore. ADL (Adobe Dynamic Link) is probably the easiest way to do this.
What is your exact workflow from PrPro, into Encore?
What brand of blank media are you burning the DVD to?
This ARTICLE will give you some tips.
Good luck, and let us know a bit more,
Hunt
PS - Multiplexing is the function of combining the Audio and the Video into one file. There are usually two choices, "None" and then often "DVD." For None, you will get two separate files - one for the Audio and one for the Video. With "DVD" you should get a muxed (combined) file. Actually, the separate Audio and Video is the preferred way, if one is doing an Export from PrPro, and then an Import to Encore. One would Import the Video into Encore as a Timeline, and the Audio as an Asset. In Encore, just drag the Audio file from the Project Panel to the appropriate Timeline, where it will snap into place.

Any way to share idvd project with itunes?

hi everyone,
I needed to know if there is any way to share an idvd project with itunes, in the same way that you can an imovie project with chapters and themes etc and then ideally to play it on your ipod as you would on a dvd player, selecting chapters etc.
Would much appreciate any comments.

Well, there are two solutions to your problem:
- convert your movies to DVD. Advantages: better quality, menus, chapters.
- do the movies for iPod, but break them in smaller pieces, so you can jump to the next scene when needed. Advantage: smaller size, can be used on iPod.
Another possible solution is presented here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=791841. I'm not sure it will work, and I'll appreciate if you will try and let us know the results (I don't have a video iPod myself).
later edit: Sorry, I was wrong: HandBrake CAN decrypt commercial DVDs. It's a beautiful free tool.

I made a project with multiple tracks and had it all panned and mixed. Now it's only playing in the right speaker. Not even regestering a left side in the master volume? What happened, how can I get both sides back?

Thank you for that info.
For video, the codec is MPEG-4 Video (XVID) and for audio it says MPEG Audio Layer 1/2/3 (mpga).
There are two issues with that file:
The first is the Xvid CODEC (not meant for editing), and then the MPEG Audio/MPGA. I would convert that file, to something that is more editable.
Good luck,
Hunt

You can't, directly on your phone. This is not supported on the iPhone. You need to get the song into your iTunes library, then sync it to your phone.

Is there a way to set up browse sequences for project with multiple TOCs and conditionalized modules

I'm using RoboHelp 9 with WebHelp output.
I've got five outputs, one of which contains Help for common functions, while the other four contain Help for licensed modules. When a user opens the Help for a licensed module, the user sees the core Help and the licensed Help. In addition, files are conditionalized so that searching for unlicensed content from a licensed Help module brings up nothing.
I've been troubleshooting problems with the Previous Topic and Next Topic which, thanks to William, I learned are related to browse sequences. After trying assorted configurations, I've got a couple of questions:
Does RH support only a single browse sequence in a project, even when the project has multiple outputs & TOCs?
If RH supports only a single browse sequence, does that mean there is no way to create a unique browse sequence for each separate output?
If RH supports multiple browse sequences, what is the workflow?
I also maintain a 'master' TOC that contains all the modules, both common and unlicensed. What I've done for now is to autocreate a browse sequence based on the 'master TOC'. When I generate output for a licensed module, which is conditionalized, I only see the TOC for that module and, therefore, can only browse between books and subbooks in that module. I've also verified that topics that do not appear in the conditionalized module, such as for another licensed module, do not appear in the Search results list either.
Carol

Me again, Carol
You also asked about the functional differences between WebHelp and WebHelp Pro, so let me elaborate.
I'm aware of only two major differences (other than the extra benefits of feedback analytics reports and management of "Areas" with authentication in RoboHelp Server).
The behavior of Browse Sequences as explained above
The fact that Content Categories are not supported in WebHelp Pro for this latest version 9.
As for the Browse Sequences you are trying to provide for different modules (licensed, etc.): Multiple Browse Sequences are included in a single .BRS file. The sequences are defined in the XML within the single file.
As a workaround (for either WebHelp or WebHelp Pro) you could create a NGP Help.brs. which you have already created for one module; then backup and archive it. Then, create a modification for the different module before you generate again. The NGP Help.brs. will need to have the same name as your project so you will have to manage the desired .brs file into the project folder when you generate that version. All of your other choices (TOC, Index, Conditional Tags, etc.) would remain the same for the respective modules.
Finally, I note that you are apparently generating WebHelp Pro right now even though you are not publishing it to the RH Server? This is really not the best practice. You should generate plain WebHelp for a web server that does not have RH Server on it (even though you may be getting away with it). As for your concern about "breaking" something; each output is placed in a different !SSL! folder automatically when you generate, so you should be able to generate WebHelp without interferring with the WebHelp Pro output. Then, you can re-publish to the RH Server using WebHelp Pro whenever the server is ready.

I am trying to upload a project with multiple tracks to iTunes. only the first track seems to be uploading. what do I do?

I am trying to upload a project from garageband with multiple tracks to itunes but only the first track is uploading. what do i do to make them all upload together?

Couple of questions:
What type of Tracks are they (MIDI, AUdio, Drummer)?
WHen you play your Project, do You hear all Tracks playing?
What happens when you change the Track order, i.e. A-B-C to B-C-A? WHen you export, do you still get only one Track and if so, is it talways the first Track in the list or a specific Track regardless if it is the first, second, or third?
Are you sure you don't have any Tracks Muted or Soloed (which auto-mutes the other Tracks)?
Hope that helps

IDVD project with Win DVD burner???

I was wondering If I can do a project with iDVD then send it to a Win comp to have it burn onto DVD. I have a Mac mini without the DVD burner.

Hi Chris,

A few questions about using PS3 with 27" iMac display...

Hey people, I had a few questions about how I could possibly get my ps3 connected to the iMac's 27" screen. First of all, could you guys list some adapters that would be able to convert the HDMI to Mini displayport? That would be great. The only one I know of is that Dr. Bott Digital Video link.
Okay secondly, I was wondering if I do get the the ps3 connected with the iMac's display with an adapter to convert HDMI to mini DisplayPort, would it be in HD? Would I be able to play ps3 games or watch blu-ray movies in 1080p HD format?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
This has been asked a number of times here since the intro of the 27" iMac. The answer is very expensive US$149 or more converters and sometimes even more expensive to maintain the resolutions that you seek.

Is iDVD compatible with quicktime movies from Final Cut Express 4?

I am trying to find out if iDBD can be used with Final Cut Express 4 output or is it just for imovie? If it can be used with FCE4 what is the extension. Thank you.

Hi
Yes - IF YOU DO IT RIGHT.
FCE/P to iDVD
Several things
• How to go from FCE/P to iDVD
• Free space on Start-up hard disk
• Encoding
• Brand and type of DVDs used
• Burn speed set
• iDVD BUG
• Chapters
How to go from FCE/P to iDVD I do
• Disable Screen and Energy saver
• IMPORTANT --> FIRST in FinalCut - Mix Down Audio under Sequence Menu / Render Only / Mix-down
• Export out as a QuickTime .mov file
• Select with Mark - Chapter Mark
• Not as Self-Contained (not important but saves time and space)
• NO QUICKTIME CONVERSION (IMPORTANT)
This QT.mov file I import into iDVD from within iDVD.
Free space on Start-up hard disk
I set a minimum of 25GB (for Mac OS and iDVDs temp files)
Encoding
• I use Pro Quality encoding
Brand and type of DVDs used
• I use Verbatim
• I use DVD-R
Burn speed set
• I set down this to x4 (or x1)
iDVD BUG
• One can not go back to movie-project for any alterations and then go back to
the iDVD project. It will notice and ask You to either Up-date or Cancel. Neither
of them will work.
Medicine - Start a brand new iDVD project.
Use of Chapters
• I only use a to z and 0 to 9 in naming them. NO other symbol/letter !
• NO Chapter-mark at very beginning - iDVD NEEDS TO set this by it self
• No Chapter marks in or within two seconds from a transition
(Way around this last one - Export movie as QT full quality and NO Chapter marks
Import this into a new Movie-project and now You are free to set C-Ms where You want
them except at very beginning - still)
Material used to build movie
• video - I use streamingDV (or convert all other to this eg .mp4, .avi, .wmv etc)
• audio - I use .aiff 16-bit 48kHz or from Audio-CD (44.1kHz) - no .mp3 or direct from iTunes
• photos - I use .jpg - no .bmp etc
Trash iDVD pref. file and run Repair Permissions - and have a re-try.
from post ??
May not be relevant, but I had the same problem with iDVD, where burned DVDs showed a green screen. It was cured by quitting Quicksilver and Quickeys as well as disabling sleep and screen-saving
Yours Bengt W

A question about a method with generic bounded type parameter

Hello everybody,
Sorry, if I ask a question which seems basic, but
I'm new to generic types. My problem is about a method
with a bounded type parameter. Consider the following
situation:
abstract class A{     }
class B extends A{     }
abstract class C
     public abstract <T extends A> T someMethod();
public class Test extends C
     public <T extends A> T someMethod()
          return new B();
}What I want to do inside the method someMethod in the class Test, is to
return an instance of the class B.
Normally, I'm supposed to be able to do that, because an instance of
B is also an instance of A (because B extends A).
However I cannot compile this program, and here is the error message:
Test.java:16: incompatible types
found   : B
required: T
                return new B();
                       ^
1 errorany idea?
many thanks,

Hello again,
First of all, thank you very much for all the answers. After I posted the comment, I worked on the program
and I understood that in fact, as spoon_ says the only returned value can be null.
I'm agree that I asked you a very strange (and a bit stupid) question. Actually, during recent months,
I have been working with cryptography API Core in Java. I understood that there are classes and
interfaces for defining keys and key factories specification, such as KeySpec (interface) and
KeyFactorySpi (abstract class). I wanted to have some experience with these classes in order to
understand them better. So I created a class implementing the interface KeySpec, following by a
corresponding Key subclass (with some XOR algorithm that I defined myself) and everything was
compiled (JDK 1.6) and worked perfectly. Except that, when I wanted to implement a factory spi
for my classes, I saw for the first time this strange method header:
protected abstract <T extends KeySpec> T engineGetKeySpec
(Key key, Class<T> keySpec) throws InvalidKeySpecExceptionThat's why yesterday, I gave you a similar example with the classes A, B, ...
in order to not to open a complicated security discussion but just to explain the ambiguous
part for me, that is, the use of T generic parameter.
The abstract class KeyFactorySpi was defined by Sun Microsystem, in order to give to security
providers, the possibility to implement cryptography services and algorithms according to a given
RFC (or whatever technical document). The methods in this class are invoked inside the
KeyFactory class (If you have installed the JDK sources provided by Sun, You can
verify this, by looking the source code of the KeyFactory class.) So here the T parameter is a
key specification, that is, a class that implements the interface KeySpec and this class is often
defined by the provider and not Sun.
stefan.schulz wrote:
>
If you define the method to return some bound T that extends A, you cannot
return a B, because T would be declared externally at invocation time.
The definition of T as is does not make sense at all.>
He is absolutely right about that, but the problem is, as I said, here we are
talking about the implementation and not the invocation. The implementation is done
by the provider whereas the invocation is done by Sun in the class KeyFactory.
So there are completely separated.
Therefore I wonder, how a provider can finally impelment this method??
Besides, dannyyates wrote
>
Find whoever wrote the signature and shoot them. Then rewrite their code.
Actually, before you shoot them, ask them what they were trying to achieve that
is different from my first suggestion!
>
As I said, I didn't choose this method header and I'm completely agree
with your suggestion, the following method header will do the job very well
protected abstract KeySpec engineGetKeySpec (Key key, KeySpec key_spec)
throws InvalidKeySpecException and personally I don't see any interest in using a generic bounded parameter T
in this method header definition.
Once agin, thanks a lot for the answers.
