Is it possible to have other recording qualities for iSight camera?

I have just lashed out on +QuickTime Pro+, and the very first time I fired it up I thought: "Oh, Oh, I've wasted my money". Every other program I tried before I decided on QT Pro had the ability to use a variety of recording-quality settings for the iSight camera. With QT Pro I get just three:
* MPEG-4 (320 x 240, ~ 264 kb/s)
* H-264 (320 x 240, ~256 kb/s)
* Native (640 x 480, 90 Mbits/s)
Not much of a variety. You either choose the low settings, or jump to the high setting at almost 400 times the data rate.
Is it possible to obtain a few more settings ( i.e. 640 x 480 using H.264) via third-party software or other technique?
Also, can I turn off sound recording if I so wish?

Thanks, RickToronto, for the suggestion about +QT Broadcaster+. A nifty little program and I'm sure I'm going to be able to put it to use sometime, but after testing the various compression options at 640 x 480, including NONE, I could not get the frame rate greater than about 10, whereas using the NONE option in +QT Pro+ allowed me to get 640 x 480 at 18 fps. There must be a fair amount of overhead in using +QT broadcaster+.
Looks like I'll be sticking to +QT Pro+, recording using the NATIVE option, then compressing afterwards. Doing that certainly shows up the amount of computation needed for compression. It took my G5 about 6 hours to compress one hour of 640 x 480 @ 18fps (~40 GB). And in addition, I got the impression that the output looks better from +QT Pro+ than from +QT Broadcaster+, but that might just be my imagination.
One last matter: one of the options in +QT Broadcaster+ -- the control options for iSight -- look almost identical to those I saw in a program called +BTV Pro+. Would the +BTV Pro+ fellow have 'borrowed' the look from Apple, or has Apple licensed them from him?

IMovie skips while recording from iSight

I record videos weekly and this recently started happening. After I finish capturing footage from the iSight and play it back I notice that it cuts and skips through the footage. So even though I was recording for 5 minutes only 4 minutes will be there with random bit cut out. It just skips around.
I originally thought my macbook was overheating as it only seemed to happen sometimes and shutting it down for awhile would fix it. But it's happening more and more frequently and now skips in about every 10 seconds of footage.
Any thoughts on things I could try?

I think you need to free up as much hard disk space as possible:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8358.html
I like to keep at least half (no less than one third) of my startup disk free for best OS X and video performance. You can do with less, but, generally, the more space (and RAM) you have, the better things work.

Motion detection software for isight?

Is anyone aware of any motion detection software for isight? I know that creative has some for their "orb" though it's not compatible with Mac OS X. Is iSight even capable of the task? Thanks for any input!

I do have the Boinx software but I am guessing that your are looking for a sensor sim and not a recording software...Am I right? If so, I am still looking for the same thing. I want the camera to trigger actions in a software and perhaps snap pictures for an application.
I know this is all possible because its all been done. Can anyone suggest where should I start in order to learn how to program these things?
Thanks.

Since you don’t allow emails any more – I suspect because of the numerous complaints with your service and the way you treat people that you don’t want documented, I am calling and I want this call recorded for future reference.
I have been a long time faithful customer of vzw and although the past year I have been late on payments many times and really couldn’t afford your exorbitant prices for services lots of other companies offer sometimes three times cheaper than what you charge, I have hung in there trying my best to meet my obligations.
This month has been no exception. You don’t know the background; the whole story of people’s lives. I know you could care less because all you care about is the profit-the money that comes in.
I was told when I agreed to pay my bill on the third per the recorded message that I had 14 days to pay…you cut me off anyway. The phones are not the tissue; your suspending my service means I cannot work. I may lose my job…how do you justify that? In any case? The least you could do would be to keep 4986 on and cut the phones off. But no. You refuse to compromise and meet the basic needs of your customer. What does that say about your company? I tried to call back on three separate occasions to tell you I couldn’t pay because of unexpected expenses but couldn’t get out of the automated system…sadly couldn’t get to a real person which also speaks volumes to me.
All this tells me this is a company I don’t wish to be affiliated with any more. As soon as I can, I will discontinue service with you…I know you could care less. I will honor the remaining portion of the contract but that’s it. You don’t deserve my business. I am a good, hardworking person who, at the sacrifice of myself and my needs, always pays her bills…albeit late at times. I realize others tell you stories and lies to justify themselves. That’s not me. If you knew what I had been through the last 7 yrs you would marvel that I am still on my feet…don’t judge too quickly. You could be wrong…and in my eyes you are by doing this to me.
God will see us through this extremely scary time of that I have no doubt. No thanks to your company and lack of understanding and mercy. I am doing the best I can. Sadly you are not.
See I have choices. MANY choices of providers for services you offer. I don’t have to be treated like this. I don’t have to succumb to your coldness and callousness. I intend to choose better (and cheaper). If your company doesn’t get the “people factor” back you will be sorry.

Problem here is you admit you cannot afford the service.
And you want to blame Verizon for losing a job because you have no cell phone.
If your job depends on that phone I would pay it on time every time if you need a job to pay your bill.
No other service is going to treat you any different. And if you cannot afford Verizon's monthly invoice how are you going to afford new devices, activation fees, possible security deposits on any other cellular carrier? You can't.
Also if you made an arraignment to pay and then decide you cannot do so, why should Verizon extend you service or credit, or why is it you want to use the service and data and not pay for it as agreed.
Get a prepay phone. Its evident the cost is too high for you to afford on post pay.
Good Luck

SQL help: return number of records for each day of last month.

Hi: I have records in the database with a field in the table which contains the Unix epoch time for each record. Letz say the Table name is ED and the field utime contains the Unix epoch time.
Is there a way to get a count of number of records for each day of the last one month? Essentially I want a query which returns a list of count (number of records for each day) with the utime field containing the Unix epoch time. If a particular day does not have any records I want the query to return 0 for that day. I have no clue where to start. Would I need another table which has the list of days?
Thanks
Ray

Peter: thanks. That helps but not completely.
When I run the query to include only records for July using a statement such as following
============
SELECT /*+ FIRST_ROWS */ COUNT(ED.UTIMESTAMP), TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY') + (ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/DD') AS DATA
FROM EVENT_DATA ED
WHERE AGENT_ID = 160
AND (TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY')+(ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/YYYY') = TO_CHAR(SYSDATE-15, 'MM/YYYY'))
GROUP BY TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY') + (ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/DD')
ORDER BY TO_CHAR((TO_DATE('01/01/1970','MM/DD/YYYY') + (ED.UTIMESTAMP/86400)), 'MM/DD');
=============
I get the following
COUNT(ED.UTIMESTAMP) DATA
1 07/20
1 07/21
1 07/24
2 07/25
2 07/27
2 07/28
2 07/29
1 07/30
2 07/31
Some dates donot have any records and so no output. Is there a way to show the missing dates with a COUNT value = 0?
Thanks

How do I get ALL the info records for a materials plants using an SAP FM?

I need to get all of the info records from the EINE table for a material - all of its sites (plants, we are using SAP retail).
The problem is this: I call the FM MD_INFORECORDS_READ - here is the code for my call:
CALL FUNCTION 'MD_INFORECORDS_READ'
          EXPORTING
            imatnr               = t_output_data-article <-- the material number
            iliefnr              = lv_eina_key < -- see below on how I get this
          importing
            eeine                =
          TABLES
            exp_eina             = it_eina
            exp_eine             = it_eine
          EXCEPTIONS
            no_eina_record_found = 2
            no_eine_record_found = 3.
lv_eina_key is taken from this call:
SELECT SINGLE altkn INTO lv_vendor_no
        FROM lfb1
        WHERE lifnr = lv_site (plant)
        AND bukrs = t_output_data-company_code.
The probelm is it only returns the first record it finds for each site. There could be multiple info records, each one based a a different Valid From date for each site. I need either ALL of the EINE records for each site OR the most current one
I know I am not using ALl of the parms in the FM - but are there maybe there are other ones should I be using.
Perhaps there is there another FM I should be using - cause I do not have the info record number to pass.
Thanks.
Scott

Never mind - the FM does work - this was bad data.

How to Restrict Creation of Infotype Record for Certain Org Units?

Dear All,
Requirement:
Org Unit 1 does not have overtime. Even the employee works overtime, they will not get overtime compensation.
One of the option is to disallow the creation of IT2005's record for all the employees in Org Unit 1.
Is it possible to do this through standard SAP?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
The best way to control this will be with Authorizations so that people belonging to one Org.unit should not have IT2005 mantainence.
Let me know if u have any concerns on this.
Thanks

How to use Purch. Info Record, for different Valuation Types ?

Hi All,
While doing Split Valuation,
I have created three valuation types - say, M1,M2,M3. for material M.
Now, I want to create Info record for material M and Vendor V1.
when i go to me11, system is allowing me to create info record for M and V1 once only,
in Purchasing Organization View, I'm getting the Valuation type field,
but can't entering 3 prices for 3 valuation types,
such as in Material Master.
Can any one help me regarding this....
Thanks,

Multiple records for a single transaction - Issue in LSMW

Hi,
i'm facing a issue in LSMW
i have the data coming up in the flat file. the data which constitutes the single transaction consists of data from multiple records from the flat file..
suppose we have 10 records in the flat file... and all the 10 records related to ony 2 transactions i.e say 6 records to first transaction and next 4 records to next transaction.
we have a direct input method to handle this data like field1 for first record, field2 for 2nd record and so on...
while uploading, we will get all the records one by one into our source structure. My question is can we handle this scenario in lsmw? if yes, pls suggest
Thanks in advance
Shekhar

Hi Kris,
this is regarding the asset creation via AS01..
we are getting the flat file in that way. Lets assume like this:
suppose for one transaction we may need to fill 5 depreciation keys and for another option only 3 dep. keys we need to fill.
then in the flat file, we can get like 5 records for first transaction i.e asset and 3 records for 2nd transaction
Can we handle this via lsmw

Merging two records in a single record for the same matnr,werks and bwart.

Hi I have a requirement to merge two records into one single record using the quantity field from MSEG table.
I am selecting two records from the table MSEG. Now for these two records i have to add the quantity values into one variable.
Then there should be only one record for the same matnr,werks,bwart.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Regards,
Amit

hi,
You can COLLECT statement only if all non key fields are numeric.
This statement Adds all such fields and give us a single record.

"SOME" devices can resolve the ALIAS (CNAME record) for a device, but not the REAL name (A record) - Why? How do I fix this?

I'm running the DNS server role on Windows Server 2012 R2 on a physical machine on my home network.
My AD is configured with a non-registered name - let's say it's "home.acme.ca" and the DNS server is configured to host that zone. I also configured a 2nd zone in the DNS server called "myinf.acme.ca". They both run on a physical
server with an IP of 192.168.1.10
The DHCP server on my Cable Modem is configured to hand out 192.168.1.10 as the only DNS server to every device on my network. On my servers (with static IP addresses), 192.168.1.10 is configured as the only DNS server available for them.
I took the DNS servers from my Cable Provider and configured a Forwarder on my server to send name resolution requests to them only if my DNS server can not answer the request - basically for any name resolution request that does not end with ".home.acme.ca"
or ".myinf.acme.ca"
The "home.acme.ca" zone is populated with 'A' records for all of the physical and virtual servers and PC's on my network.
The "myfin.acme.ca" zone is populated with 'CNAME' records that point directly to the 'A' record in "home.acme.ca" - for example, I have a serve named s000abc123ww.home.acme.ca with an 'A' record providing an IP address of 192.168.1.20 and
I created a 'CNAME' (alias) record named 'webserver.myinf.acme.ca' which points to the 'A' record 's000abc123ww.home.acme.ca'
2 of my 6 machines can resolve the alias but not the real name of the server!
.10 is the Domain Controller. All of the other machines (except .98) are members of the home.acme.ca domain.
I attempted to ping 's000abc123ww.home.acme.ca' AND 'webserver.myinf.acme.ca' on the following 6 computers. I used the fully qualified name in all cases.
4 of the below machines are able to resolve BOTH names. The other 2 can resolve the Alias but not the real name!
I don't understand how this is possible, but I would like to fix it...!!! Please help?
.10 - Server 2012 R2 (Physical) - Hosts Active Directory and DNS.
.20 - Server 2012 R2 (Virtual)   - Runs SQL Server
.21 - Server 2012 R2 (Virtual)   - Runs Apache
.22 - Server 2012 R2 (Virtual) -   Runs Apache. This is the device I am trying to ping (s000abc123ww)
.98 - Windows 7 (Physical)
.99 - Windows 7  (Virtual)
.21 (which is configured nearly identically to .20 and .22) can resolve and ping the Alias, but not the real name.
.98 can also resolve and ping the Alias, but not the real name.
The rest of the machines can resolve and ping both the alias and the real name.
All of the Virtual Machines are running under Hyper-V on the .10 physical server.
All the devices are on the same subnet.
Thank in advance to anyone who can help me understand and correct this problem!
Jim

Hi,
CNAME resource records are recommended for use in the following scenarios:
• When a host that is specified in an A resource record in the
same zone needs to be renamed
• When a generic name for a well-known server, such as www, must resolve to a group of individual computers (each with individual A resource records) that provide the same
service, for example, a group of redundant Web servers
Therefore please try to create your CNNAM record in the same zone and try again.

Count no. of records for a particular customer in the query?

Hi,
1)Can anybody guide as to how do we count the number of records for a particular customer. E.g.
C1 has placed 2 orders
C2 has placed 4 orders
C3 has placed 5 orders
so in all the ODS has 11 records. Now while designing the query we need to ensure that we show only the Customers who have placed more than 3 orders. What could be logic to solve this kind of a problem?
2) Is there a way that we can access the structure and data of the ODS in ABAP code say one of the includes in a user exit?
The requirement says there could be N number of cases opened and closed in one month. Now we need to calculate the average number of days taken to close a case? Any ideas on the possible solution.
Thanks
RB

Hi Rajat,
Take a calculated key figure rename it as Count , go to the properties of that calculated key figure on the left hand side not at the columns side in the properties click on the button Enhance which is shown in the down left side, in the exception aggregation part select "count all values <>0" , take the reference character as customer Id . Now go to the Customer character which is in rows go to properties and select "Normalise to" combo box in that select "Query result" now u will get the exact result which ur looking for .
