Quick question: need some help with a lens effect filter

I'm playing with the iphone 8mm video cam app and they have this familar lens effect... as seen here
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dkh7Ok8cQmw
Would anyone know the name of this effect... it's almost like a hard pulsating vignette that you'd see in old 70's home films
I wanted keep the video as clean as possible and use a plug-in or method to re-create that effect in post-production....

Having done 8mm film transfers for over 20 years, I can say that I've NEVER seen the frame of the film jump like that vignette does. To me, it makes it look very fake. The rest of the effect looks OK; the image jitter, the light flicker, etc, but the vignette should be stable.

I'm a beginner of CS3 and a mac user, here I got a question need some help.

Hi All Masters,
I'm a beginner of CS3 and a mac user, here I got a question looking for some help.
Does anyone know there's a work for editing the photo to painting styles such as watercolor painting, oil painting, pastel drawing, colored pencil or pencil sketching in Adobe serials ?
If not, does anyone know any software offering these features,

The best overall art styles plugin for PS is probably AlienSkin's SnapArt. I'd say their filters are a cut above Photoshop's which are old and have never been updated.

That being said, the best painterly interpretations of photographs I've ever seen are done with Painter.
http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/us/en/Product/1166553885783#tabview=tab0
There is a basic version sort of like Photoshop Elements which is still better than Photoshop for artistically rendering photos into 'paintings.'

PL SQL Question - Need some help

I would like to write a loop in PLSQL to run a 225 different queries on a table.
That is i have 225 stop worded queries to run, and would like to write a procedure that could automate this, when it has run the query i would also like for it to output the results into a table (e.g. Results1). The queries are numbered 1 to 225.
I have tried to write some code that gives an idea of what i would like to do, but as i have only been using PLSQL for 1 week i am still a newbie. Any help would be much appreciated!!
Procedure mulitpleQuery
FOR i =1 to 225
searchstring string
queryno = i
Select stoppedwords from cranqrel
where queryno = i
fetch to searchstring
replace(searchstring,' ',')
INSERT INTO results1(DOCNO, REL_SCORE) SELECT DOCNO,SCORE(1)
FROM CRAN1400
WHERE CONTAINS (abstract, 'searchstring',1) > 0
ORDER BY SCORE(1) DESC;
END;

Need some help in saving video message from viber to my Iphone. I disabled the thing that would save photos and videos automatically then, there comes a video I want to save. After loading and watching it, I press the "save to gallery"

Need some help in saving video message from viber to my Iphone 5S with new ios 8's program . I disabled the thing that would save photos and videos automatically then, there comes a video I want to save. After loading and watching it, I press the "save to gallery" thing but it doesn't save in gallery. I tried all, restarting my phone, rebooting then turning on the save automatically thing and when I watch it again, it still wouldn't save.

Probably a good question to ask Viber or look at their support site.

Need some help...in need of a different way.

Hi, I'm new to Java and need some help. I have 2 questions that are similar in nature.
1st Question:
In a program that I'm writting I have a do-while loop which at the end brings up a dialog box that asks the user to enter '1' for 'Yes' or '2' for 'No' to continue.
I would rather have the option of having the user enter 'y' or 'Y' for Yes and 'n' or 'N' for No.
Here is what I have currently:
int x;
String data;
do{
//Blah blah code
data = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter 1 for Yes or 2 for No");
x = Integer.parseInt(data);
}while(x == 1);
x++;
2nd Question:
In another part of my program I have a Case statement that asks the user to enter a number or a letter from a list of choices. They can enter '2' , 't', or 'T'.
I would rather have all of this in an if-else chain. Is this possibe? if so, how would I do it.
Thanks.

I would rather have the option of having the user enter 'y' or 'Y' for Yes and 'n' or
'N' for No. You can test the first letter of whatever the user inputs like this:String response = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter (Y)es or (N)o");
response = response.toLowerCase();
if(response.startsWith("y")) {
    // the user entered something starting with y
} else if(response.startsWith("n")) {
    // the user entered something starting with n
} else {
    // what are you going to do?
}JOptionPane also has versions that would allow yes/no buttons. Eg, see:

Please I need some help with a table

Hi All
I need some help with a table.
My table needs to hold prices that the user can update.
Also has a total of the column.
my question is if the user adds in a new price how can i pick up the value they have just entered and then add it to the total which will be the last row in the table?
I have a loop that gets all the values of the column, so I can get the total but it is when the user adds in a new value that I need some help with.
I have tried using but as I need to set the toal with something like total
    totalTable.setValueAt(total, totalTable.getRowCount()-1,1); I end up with an infinite loop.
Can any one please advise on some way I can get this to work ?
Thanks for reading

Need some help with guitar setup...

jeez, never thought i'd be asking a question like this after playing for like 20 years, but i need some help with a guitar setup for mac. i'm gonna list out a lot of crap here that prolly doesn't affect anything at all, but here goes.
Imac 17inch G4 - latest updated OS X... 10.4, or 5, or whatever. garageband 3.0
digitech gnx-3
alesis sr-16
sure mic's
yamaha e203 keyboard
here's the setup:
yamaha is on its own on a usb uno midi interface, sure's connected to gnx's xlr port, alesis connected to gnx's jam-a-long input, '87 kramer vanguard connected to gnx's guitar input. currently running headphones out on gnx to line in on mac.
here's the problem:
everything works beautifully, but my guitar sounds like crap. if i plug headphones into the gnx, it sounds beautiful. that makes me think its some kind of level issue between the gnx's output, and the mac's input, but nothing seems to fix it.
by sounding like crap, i mean way too much bass. sound is muddy, blurry, not crisp... aka crap. i've tried altering both output and input on mac and gnx, and i cant get a combination that works. the gnx has a s/pdif out, can the mac accept that as input? might that help? short of running the gnx to my marshal half stack and mic'ing that, anyone have any suggestions, or use a similar setup?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

anyone? ... any suggestions? I think it might be an issue with the gnx pre-amping the signal as it goes out, and then the mac amping it on the way in, giving me a buttload more signal than i need, but since i cant find a happy level, i'm not really sure. i really dont want to resort to mic'ing my marshall... even with the volume almost off, my jcm900 is WAY too loud for apartment use. its not like i really NEED the guitar to sound perfect, i only use garageband to sketch out ideas for songs between myself and bandmates, but its really annoying to not have my customary crisp distortion. my bass player keeps telling me to use the built in amps, but, not to dis a practically free program, but the built in amps blow, at least after 10 years of marshall tube amplification they do. if anyone has any suggestions that might be helpfull on how i might resolve this, i would be your best friend for life and go to all your birthday parties

Need some help with GUI development

Hi ppl.. I am new to labview and I am currently involved in a testing equipment development. I need some help. firstly I need to know if multi-screen GUI (with icons and stuff)is possible in Labview. Secondly I need to interface the measurements to a database. Would it be possible to create just small executable to perform the measurement part alone and do the rest of database operation using VB. (or would it be advisable to do the whole lot in labview)
the final sft should look something like this
screen1 :setup screen... interface with database
screen2 :actual test and test results
screen3 :log file creation
measurement is via daq board and i also need to send some control signals and set up TCP/IP for data transfer.

Hello.
I am not completely sure what you mean by "multi-screen", but I am pretty sure that doing the user interface using a tab control will work for you. I have attached an example VI which is a state machine (which in LabVIEW you do with a case structure inside a while loop). Notice how the configuration controls are in the first page of the tab control, associated with state 0 of the state machine, but in the block diagram, they are actually used in state 1 of the state machine. Instead of writing a very long description, I will let you take a look at the code (which I saved in LV 7.0 version). Let me know if you have questions or comments

Need some help with wine + midi

Howdi guys!
I need some help. I'd like to run an application which is only available for Windows and OSX, so my choice is wine. This application needs to send midi signals to the hardware it is supposed to control.
In the product's forum there is a thread which shows how it can be done. But the newest releases of wine don't allow this, because it doesn't support jack anymore.
I think basically it doesn't matter which application it is I run in wine, the question is, is it possible to send midi signals in and out through wine? If so, how? Might be that it's quite trivial, in my defense I have to say that I never worked with midi before.
The soundcard I use is an Edirol UA-25 which is fully supported in Linux, midi works.
Thanks for any ideas!
edit: Forgot two things: I know I could try older versions of wine or running it in a virtual machine, but I want to avoid this.
Last edited by Army (2012-04-27 07:15:33)

For that app, you will probably be using the ALSA-midi interface. So, you shouldn't require Wine to have jack support. - In fact, that picture clearly shows that Wine is using ALSA-midi, but he is using jackd + a2jmidid (which exposes alsa-midi 2 jack-midi).
As long as that software doesn't require a special driver, you should be able to use it. As for the specifics, i would imagine that you would start jackd, start a2jmidid and then start your application. - you also have to make sure your midi device is connecting before launching your app in wine - otherwise the device won't show up in your wine app. You also will need to select your midi interface in your application. After this, you should be able to connect your wine app (through the a2jmidi bridge) to your hardware.
But if for whatever reason you can't get it too work ~ i do actually use a VM for updating firmware on 2 different audio devices (a soundcard and midi-controller) - and it works great. I am using VMware, but i would imagine virtualbox would work very similar..

Need some help with Flash + Captivate (ActionScript in Flash)

I have what I think is a fairly simple question.... I have an SWF File embedded in a Captivate 4 Presentation. The SWF requires the user to click on a variety of items, after they have gone through all the required items a "FINISH" button appears... I want the finish button to "close" the SWF file.
I'll add this info to in case it helps with the "right" answer....
The reason I am doing this is because Captivate automatically rolls from one "slide" to the next. The only way to stop this is to add a "pause" button to the slide, I want the user to have to finish the SWF before they can see the "next" button in the captivate file...So I was thinking, put the "swf" over the "next" button... then have the "complete" button close the swf revealing the covered "next" button in captivate....
The short version of what I need is information on closing an SWF file via a button click. Is there a "swf.visible=false" or anything like that?

Need some help with putting a folder in users directoryI recomend using System.getProperty( "user.home" ) not a hard-coded value.

I need some help getting my G5 to work with my SCSI scanner.
It has been suggested that I use an Adaptec PowerDomain 29160N to connect my Lacie SilverScanner III scanner, which is SCSI.
http://www.adaptec.com/en-US/products/mac/scsi/APD-29160N/
Does anyone have any experience with this unit or another SCSI adaptor that may be of help.
I have a G5 using OS 10.4.8
Any help would sure be of use!
Thanks

Dan Page-
I've not used this card, but a quick scan of the web page says that it is compatible with Mac OSX 10.3.X. You may want to contact them to verify that it will work with your system.

No.
Service Pack 3 just updates your OS. All of your files, folders and programs will still be there.
You will start running into more problems like this the longer you stick with XP though. That particular OS is over 11 years old, service pack 3 hs been out for over 4 years.
It may be time for a system upgrade. I personally went from XP to Windows 7 and I haven't looked back one bit.

Totally Clueless & Need some help!

Ok so i have my first Macbook Pro... im not a computer wizz and really know nothing about them. So i need some help!
I have tried to install Snow Leopard and the installation finishes but nothing has changed? I dont have any of the new functions im still running on the normal Safari not Safari4, I have tried to download Safari4 but it says "Safari cannot be installed on this disk, this update requires Mac OS X 10.5.8 or newer"
I went into the apple menu and into 'about this mac' and it says im running on OS X 10.6.
Its like it has installed SL.. but nothing has been actually installed properly!
HELP! And dumb it down for me!!! LOL

Thank you for your help. One more if I may.
If I open my MacBook Pro 10.6 SL in the normal manner then go to About This Mac > More Info > Software, the System Software Overview among other things shows. 64-bit Kernel and Extensions: No.
If I Restart my computer holding down the 6 and 4 keys the answer then becomes Yes.
My question is do I really have to concern myself about this or, can I just start my computer in the normal manner and forget the No or Yes?

This worked for me... A little time consuming but once you get rolling it goes GREAT... Thanks....
I got my artwork and saved it to my Desktop
Opened up Microsoft Paint and clicked on "File" and "Open" and found it to get it on the screen to resize it
Clicked "resize" and a box for changing it opened up
Checked the box "Pixels" and "Unchecked maintain aspect ratio"
Set Horizontal for 640 and Vertical for 480
Clicked on "OK" and went back to "File" and did a "Save As" and chose JPEG Picture
It came up "File Already Existed" and clicked "OK" (really did not care about the original artwork I found because wrong size)
Went to iTunes and on the movie right clicked on "Get Info", clicked on "Details", then "Artwork"
Go to the little box on the top left that shows your old artwork and click on it to get the little blue border to appear around it and hit "Delete" to make it gone
Click on "Add Artwork" and find it where you put the one from above on your Desktop and hit "Open" and OK and your new artwork is now there and all good.
Sounds like a lot of steps to follow but after around 5 or so you will fly through it. This worked perfect on my iPhone 6 Plus and I have artwork on my Home Videos now.
