Questions about the music included in iMovie/iLife

Hi guys!
Im making a small presentation movie for my small companies website. I've added some tunes from the library in iMovie (I know there is free royalty-free music of there but i didnt find what I was looking for). From what i've heard the songs are royalty-free, right? But not maybe for commercial use?
Then i read something on this link (http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/youtube/thread?tid=3846f9dc40458d5a&hl=en) meaning that I am allowed to use the tracks in movies or in Garageband arrangements for commercial use, but as long as the music clips are no longer than 30 seconds, and that i write some kind of credits to the artist or Apple.
Is this true? Anyone with an answer? I've searched for more license notes about iMovie but have'nt found anything.
Thank you so much guys for helping me of here!

I would add that sometimes a record company will claim ownership of one of the Apple jingles. YOu can contest this with YouTube, but do not say that you own the music. Say that you are licensed to use the track by Apple Computer and attach a link to 2C above.
Use of credits or attribution in the YouTube comments may help, but usually the process of the record company claiming it is automated. The comments will help only after YouTube reviews it.
I found that some minor rap artist was using one of the Apple Jingles in his rap record and the record company was flagging all videos that used this jingle. I was never able to convince YouTube that I had a right to this music. Very frustrating. You only get one chance to explain to YouTube why you have the right. After that, if the record company still contests it, YouTube will assume the record company is right and offer you a path that includes going to federal court to prove your case.
Youtube is horrible on this, but maybe they have to be given the large number of videos added every day.

Short question about the nano controls

Hi. I'm probably going to buy a 4Gb nano today, but first I'd like to ask a short question about the << >> buttons on the click wheel.
I read in a forum that the << & >> buttons are actually 'skip' buttons (only used to play the previous or next song respectively), and that it's impossible to rewind or fast-forward within the track you're listening to. This is extremely important for me as I have several 2-3 hours mp3, and I need to be able to access different parts of the file quickly (eg. not having to actually wait 1 hour to listen to my favorite part). I found this to be an important feature, and I can't believe Apple hasn't thought about it.
Anyway, I've never used an iPod, that's why this question may sound plain stupid.
Thanks for you replies!

The iPod fast charges to about 80% and then trickle charges the rest of the way to prevent damaging the battery/iPod. A full charge takes more than an hour or two though the battery indicator will show full. The best way to tell if a full charge has occurred is to unmount the iPod from the computer but keep it connected. The screen will show an animation of a battery. When the animation stops the battery is fully charged.
Also, as your battery discharges the indicator will eventually show red indicating the battery is about to run out...in an hour or two. After you've owned your iPod for a couple months you'll figure out how much time you have left when the indicator turns red - it depends on a number of factors including play volume, equalizer use, etc. In real world use I'm getting over 11 hours.
The headphones are...average. If they didn't hurt my ears I'd find them acceptable for my pop music but not so acceptable for acoustic and symphonic nor music with booming bass - because they don't boom the bass.
I encode the majority of my music at 256 AAC and I've noticed no distortion caused by the EQ. This, plus your complaint about the earphones, leads me to think perhaps you got a bum set of phones. Borrow a pair from someone else and see what happens.

A question about the impact of SQL*PLUS SERVEROUTPUT option on v$sql

Hello everybody,
SQL> SELECT * FROM v$version;
BANNER
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
CORE    11.2.0.1.0 Production
TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production
SQL>
OS : Fedora Core 17 (X86_64) Kernel 3.6.6-1.fc17.x86_64I would like to ask a question about the SQL*Plus SET SERVEROUTPUT ON/OFF option and its impact on queries on views such as v$sql and v$session. Here is the problem
Actually I define three variables in SQL*Plus in order to store sid, serial# and prev_sql_id columns from v$session in order to be able to use them later, several times in different other queries, while I'm still working in the current session.
So, here is how I proceed
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON; -- I often activate this option as the first line of almost all of my SQL-PL/SQL script files
SET SQLBLANKLINES ON;
VARIABLE mysid NUMBER
VARIABLE myserial# NUMBER;
VARIABLE saved_sql_id VARCHAR2(13);
-- So first I store sid and serial# for the current session
BEGIN
    SELECT sid, serial# INTO :mysid, :myserial#
    FROM v$session
    WHERE audsid = SYS_CONTEXT('UserEnv', 'SessionId');
END;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
-- Just check to see the result
SQL> SELECT :mysid, :myserial# FROM DUAL;
    :MYSID :MYSERIAL#
       129   1067
SQL> Now, let's say that I want to run the following query as the last SQL statement run within my current session
SELECT * FROM employees WHERE salary >= 2800 AND ROWNUM <= 10;According to Oracle® Database Reference 11g Release 2 (11.2) description for v$session
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25513/dynviews_3016.htm#REFRN30223]
the column prev_sql_id includes the sql_id of the last sql statement executed for the given sid and serial# which in the case of my example, it will be the above mentioned SELECT query on the employees table. As a result, right after the SELECT statement on the employees table I run the following
BEGIN
    SELECT prev_sql_id INTO :saved_sql_id
    FROM v$session
    WHERE sid = :mysid AND serial# = :myserial#;
END;
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT :saved_sql_id FROM DUAL;
:SAVED_SQL_ID
9babjv8yq8ru3
SQL> Having the value of sql_id, I'm supposed to find all information about cursor(s) for my SELECT statement and also its sql_text value in v$sql. Yet here is what I get when I query v$sql upon the stored sql_id
SELECT child_number, sql_id, sql_text
FROM v$sql
WHERE sql_id = :saved_sql_id;
CHILD_NUMBER   SQL_ID          SQL_TEXT
0              9babjv8yq8ru3    BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.GET_LINES(:LINES, :NUMLINES); END;Therefore instead of
SELECT * FROM employees WHERE salary >= 2800 AND ROWNUM <= 10;for the value of sql_text I get the following value
BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.GET_LINES(:LINES, :NUMLINES);Which is not of course what I was expecting to find in v$sql for the given sql_id.
After a bit googling I found the following thread on the OTN forum where it had been suggested (well I think maybe not exactly for the same problem) to turn off SERVEROUTPUT.
Problem with dbms_xplan.display_cursor
This was precisely what I did
SET SERVEROUTPUT OFFafter that I repeated the whole procedure and this time everything worked pretty well as expected. I checked SQL*Plus documentation for SERVEROUTPUT
and also v$session page, yet I didn't find anything indicating that SERVEROUTPUT should be switched off whenever views such as v$sql, v$session
are queired. I don't really understand the link in terms of impact that one can have on the other or better to say rather, why there is an impact
Could anyone kindly make some clarification?
thanks in advance,
Regards,
Dariyoosh

Hi Dariyoosh,
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON has the effect of executing dbms_output.get_lines after each and every statement. Not only related to system view.
Here below what Tom Kyte is explaining in this page:
Now, sqlplus sees this functionality and says "hey, would not it be nice for me to dump this buffer to screen for the user?". So, they added the SQLPlus command "set serveroutput on" which does two things
1) it tells SQLPLUS you would like it <b>to execute dbms_output.get_lines after each and every statement</b>. You would like it to do this network rounding after each call. You would like this extra overhead to take place (think of an install script with hundreds/thousands of statements to be executed -- perhaps, just perhaps you don't want this extra call after every call)
2) SQLPLUS automatically calls the dbms_output API "enable" to turn on the buffering that happens in the package.Regards.

Questions about the content of download meeting recording .zip file

I tried posting this on the resurrected Connect forum, but my Adobe ID wasn't recognized there....
Concerning the files that are included in the .zip file of the meeting recording that can be downloaded:
1) Is there any documentation describing the files and their contents (i.e. what each file represents, what each XML element and attribute in those files represent)
2) Are there any files that capture mouse movement on a shared desktop?
Thank you!

Hi Sean,
Regarding your first post:
Thanks Jorma! I don't have access to an FMS build at the moment but I'm quite certain it's there. As for contacting Jaydeep, I am 90% sure he authorized us to broadcast his email on here if folks had questions about the tool, but, in the case that I'm wrong and he didn't - I'm going to double-check first.
Regarding your most recent post..
"To be clear, the most critical goal I'm trying to accomplish is to create an automated process that will download the recording meeting at its highest quality in a consistent and reliable manner".
I personally believe this is possible; unfortunately, I haven't seen it done yet. If your recording contains:
- audio
- a camera feed
- screensharing
Then I think you might be able to get this going. If it contains shared content, like a shared PPT, this gets trickier.
"To do this, of course, I have to reproduce some of the functionality that Connect provides, starting and combining video and audio streams according to the instructions in the control files."
Exactly right. If your recording didn't contain shared content, then all you've got on your hands are a bunch of audio/video files that you could edit together as you wanted with your favourite video editing tool. If it contains shared content, here's (at a high level) what's happening.
For shared PPTs or FTContent files:
First (for version 9 recordings only), Connect reads the information on the Shared Content's location and SCO within mainstream and indexstream and validates it before loading it. I don't recall this happening to the same extent with version 8 or earlier, but maybe it was. Now, if the content is validated (ie. Connect can find it) the share pod will display as black, if it doesn't, you get an empty pod with an message like "No content is being shared" or something like that.
Connect then looks at the actual FTContent file, and loads the content that is to be shared using the file path and sco ID listed in here. It's important to note that the SCO ID and file path in here will likely not be the same as the original file you uploaded to your room, it's a new SCO id (I believe SCOs of this type are called referenced scos) and new path.
Now...if I was going to build some sort of player which would play all these files in one screen to make a recording...I might not want to use Connect's code here. If you know the file path to the shared content (from FTContent), you could easily view it with the content URL (conveniently also in FtContent). I'm not a coder, but I'm envisioning something like Presenter's GUI where you've got the presentation's content in the main area, and a video file (if there is one) playing back on the side.
Anyways, food for thought if you want to try to go about this. Connect recordings are incredibly complex and they come with a big learning curve, but if you can make sense of them the knowledge is quite valuable.

N00b question about the ABS

Hey, I am new to Arch and I'm about to install it on my machine (used it a bit in a virtual machine) and I have a small nooby question about the ABS.
According to the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System
"Running abs as root creates the ABS tree by synchronizing with the Arch Linux server."
Does this mean that the ABS tree (not the package) is always downloaded from the official Arch Linux servers, never from any of the mirrors?

jomasti wrote:
ANOKNUSA wrote:makepkg is part of the abs package.
You might be confusing that with makeworld. makepkg is included with pacman.
Anyway, gregor, you are confusing the AUR with ABS. Although, what you are saying is still possible via the source files when looking up a package on https://www.archlinux.org/packages/. But with both, using a program or using the respective page is a personal choice.
Yup, you're right. My mistake.

Question about the MAKZN field in the RBKP table

Hello all.
I have a question about the MAKZN field. Does anyone know what field in MIRO is assigned to this field? We have an issue where a line item amount was not selected invoice was out of balance but the agent selected accept and post. And invoice posted. but I am interested in knowing where the amount if keyed in because when I go to the RBKP table I see an amount entered in the MAKZN (manually accept net difference amount)

Hi,
it seems as if the value was calculated internally:
program SAPLMR1M
dynpro 6000
PAI module fcode_6000
Include LMR1MI3W
*-------- buchen ------------------------------------------------------*
    WHEN fcobu OR fcomanak.

      PERFORM ota_check USING vf_kred-xcpdk rbkpv-xcpdd
                        CHANGING rc.
      IF rc NE 0.
        CLEAR ok-code.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
      IF ok-code = fcomanak.
        PERFORM diff_akzeptieren.
        ok-code = fcobu.
      ENDIF.
where:
fcomanak          LIKE ok-code VALUE 'MANAK', " Manuell akzeptiert
*&      Form DIFF_AKZEPTIEREN
*       Differenz manuell akzeptieren
FORM diff_akzeptieren.
*       Manuell akzeptierter Betrag
    rbkpv-makzn = rbkpv-makzn + rbkpv-diffn.
    rbkpv-makzmw = rbkpv-makzmw + rbkpv-diffmw.
*       Differenzbeträge
    CLEAR: rbkpv-diffn, rbkpv-diffmw.
ENDFORM.                             " DIFF_AKZEPTIEREN
maybe it´s happenning when releasing manually the invoice in MRBR?
Best regards.

Question about the custom panel language

I have a question about the custom panel language...
The document you provide seems to lack details on some features. Namely the icon and picture widgets. I see from looking at the examples and other vendor's web pages that these features exist, but I don't find any detailed descriptions of them in the documentation. Is there a more complete document describing these and other features...
http://www.adobe.com/products/xmp/custompanel.html
Alternatively, can someone fill me in on the syntax and options for at least the icon and picture widget. For instance, how do you load external icons or pictures...
Tom

Gunar,
It could be interesting to have something like
icon(url: 'http://www.adobe.com/Images/logo.gif', width: 20, height: 20);
or better
picture(url: 'http://www.adobe.com/Images/logo.gif', width: 20, height: 20);
for the pictures and
include(url: 'http://www.adobe.com/xml/custompanel/camera1.txt');
for include the cusmtom panel's dynamic portions

[Zen Micro]Questions about the Firmw

Hello,
I have some questions about the firmware of the Zen Micro
. Can I use the Zen Micro without any Software (MediaSource?) on my PC (winXP) when im using the Firmware Creative Zen Micro *PlaysForSure/MTP Firmware 2.00.2 ? This means that i copy my Music only by drag&drop from the Explorer after my Computer has detected the Zen Micro as a Removable Disk!
2. I know that the Zen Micro has two parts with the Normal Firmware. The "Removable Disk" Part and the "Playable" Part which can only used by the Software! But what happens if my . question is right. How can i seperate this two parts?
Thanks for answers

I don't have the 2.x firmware, but I think I'm correct in saying this :
with the 2.x firmware, your Micro becomes an MTP compatible device, which can be recognized on PCs having an MTP compatible OS (operating system). For the moment, the only OS that fits the bill to my knowledge, is Win XP with Windows Media Player 0. In this combination of MTP device + MTP OS, you don't need to install other drivers, and you can do drag and drop
BUT ! The 2.x firmware doesn't make your device a "removable disc" in the traditional sense of the word. It doesn't become a file system, like a USB memory stick.
I hope I was clear enough to see the difference :-)Message Edited by fred_be9300 on 04-03-2005 02:52 AM

Questions about the IDE

Hi all,
I have some questions about the IDE's Help menu.
First, without peaking....
1. Why would you click the Help menu?
2. What would you expect to find there?
Now, you can peak
3. Is there anything in the Help menu that surprises you (gee, I never would have thought to look there for that)?
4. What is missing?

That's a reasonable dividing line. I don't know the official reason myself,
but I'm glad there are now two forums because I will not lurk on the Flash
Builder forum because I don't write any of the code for Flash Builder and
therefore have no "expertise" there.
I do write code that goes in the Flex SDK and generally know who to bug
about other code in the SDK I haven't written so if one of my colleagues is
really busy and not paying attention to forum postings I can point them to
unanswered posts in their domain of knowledge.
I would offer that the dividing line is really whether you are having
trouble with the tools, including the code generated by the tools, or
whether you are having trouble understanding with the components and
infrastructure in the SDK.
One cross-over point would probably be profiling. Even though I didn't
write the profiler for Flash Builder, I have lots of experience using it so
if you are debugging memory leak or performance issues I would ask those
questions on this forums. If you are having trouble getting the profiler or
debugger to run, though, ask that on the Flash Builder forum.

About the music will automatic stop...

I have a question about the iPod touch 2nd Generation.
Will it stop the music when the earphones connected apart?
Does everyone have this situation?
Can I turn off this function, or it's a default setting can not changeable.
Thanks a lot for your answer or advice. Thanks.

When playing music on a disconnected iPod touch with the headphones inserted, pulling the headphone plug completely out of the headphone jack will cause music playback to halt.
This has been an undocumented feature of iPods for many generations, although some previous models would not consistently halt playback.

A question about the example "Filter"

Hi,
I have a question about the example "Filter (The Filter example illustrates how to filter data using a butterworth filter)" in the measurement studio reference now, it is one of the analysis examples.
I load this example in Vc++, but when I compile it, the error messages are:
"'ButterworthHighPass' : is not a member of 'CNiMath'" ,
"'ButterworthHighPass' : undeclared identifier",
"'ButterworthLowPass' : is not a member of 'CNiMath'" ,
"'ButterworthLowPass' : undeclared identifier",
"'WhiteNoiseWave' : is not a member of 'CNiMath'" ,
"'WhiteNoiseWave' : undeclared identifier",
Can you tell me what is matter? and how can I solve it?
Thanks!

Hi,
I was hoping that you could tell me what version and edition you have of Measurement Studio. I also need to know if you are using .NET or 6.0. For example, "I am using Mesurement Studio Enterprise edition 7.1 for Visual Studio .NET."
Depending on the version that you have, different functions and controls are included. I believe that you may have an edition that does not include the Butterworth filter. Let me know and we can go from there.

Questions about the Apple Developer Enterprise Program

Hi there,
i got some questions about the Apple Developer Enterprise Program:
- is there a way a company can create their own "AppStore" with only the APPs the employees should use?
- when I developed the enterprise app are the install files on a apple hosted server or do i need my own infrastructure to distribute my app?

Some questions about the integration between BIEE and EBS

Hi, dear,
I'm a new bie of BIEE. In these days, have a look about BIEE architecture and the BIEE components. In the next project, there are some work about BIEE development based on EBS application. I have some questions about the integration :
1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?
2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?
3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?
4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?
could anyone give some guide for me? I'm very appreciated if you can also give any other information.
Thanks in advance.

1) generally, is the BIEE database and application server decentralized with EBS database and application? Both BIEE 10g and 11g version can be integrated with EBS R12?You, shud consider OBI Application here which uses OBIEE as a reporting tool with different pre-built modules. Both 10g & 11g comes with different versions of BI apps which supports sources like Siebel CRM, EBS, Peoplesoft, JD Edwards etc..
2) In BIEE administrator tool, the first step is to create physical tables. if the source appliation is EBS, is it still needed to create the physical tables?Its independent of any soure. This is OBIEE modeling to create RPD with all the layers. If you build it from scratch then you will require to create all the layers else if BI Apps is used then you will get pre-built RPD along with other pre-built components.
3) if the physical tables creation is needed, how to complete the data transfer from the EBS source tables to BIEE physical tables? which ETL tool is prefer for most developers? warehouse builder or Oracle Data Integration?BI apps comes with pre-built ETL mapping to use with the tools majorly with Informatica. Only BI Apps 7.9.5.2 comes with ODI but oracle has plans to have only ODI for any further releases.
4) During data transfer phase, if there are many many large volume data needs to transfer, how to keep the completeness? for example, it needs to transfer 1 million rows from source database to BIEE physical tables, when 50%is completed, the users try to open the BIEE report, can they see the new 50% data on the reports? is there some transaction control in ETL phase?User will still see old data because its good to turn on Cache and purge it after every load.
Refer..http://www.oracle.com/us/solutions/ent-performance-bi/bi-applications-066544.html
and many more docs on google
Hope this helps

Two questions about the new iWeb

Hi
I've got two questions about the new iWeb.
1. Is it possible to blog online now? Meaning adding a new blog entry without having to be on your own Mac? This is a feature I've been waiting for since iWeb first was released.
2. Is it possible to choose the format of images? Earlier editions had the option to "optimize" images but that meant it changed it into .png meaning the site got a lot heavier than if .jpg was used. And since I have relatives who still only have an isdn connection I need to be able to have the website as light as possible.
thanks

Ah well... thanks for the quick answer
