Resizing an apps window interrupts mplayer

Hi all,
I use mplayer to play music from internet radio but when I resize another apps window, the music is interrupted. I have an AMD Athlon 64x2 2.4GHz machine and this seems rather unacceptable to me... ;-) I have always used a custom-compiled kernel on my Arch x86-64 installation but this problem seems to have started with using a custom 2.6.24.x kernel.
Any hints on what kernel config item(s) could produce this problem? Is it a matter of unfair multitasking resource allocation?
My thanks in advance.

On the mini, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • Visual nodes not updating unless I resize the application window

    I'm not sure what has happened here but I can add new nodes and use my app as normal but there is no longer any change on screen to indicate modified nodes until I resize the application window!
    Once i double click the top of the app window sure enough I can see the new nodes that were added.. this is very frustrating.. Any ideas what this could be?
    I went back to an older version of my app and it is occurring with that also so it isn't new changes to the app. Is my javafx broken somehow?

    This is really weird... I reinstalled java, javafx, and netbeans and it didn't rectify the problem immediately. After a few days I came back to netbeans and tried the application and it was working properly. Without changing anything.
    Now again, I shutdown and restarted the PC and have come back to netbeans and the application will not update moved objects on screen unless you resize the window!
    This is really crazy... I literally had this application working perfectly for several days before I shut down my PC (I usually just sleep the computer for days on end until it needs a reboot).
    Restarted PC and the old problem came back... I'm running Windows 7 64 bit... Am I going crazy? I don't feel this is code related!

  • Pictures look like they transfer via iTunes app window - but don't appear on iOS device

    My pictures look like they transferred to iPad (the new) or iPhone (4) in iTunes (on the App page). I can see the files in the little app file share/transfer window, but the pictures do not show up in the iPhoto App on either iOS device.
    Tried deleting the ios iphoto folder mentioned in a different post - did not help.
    Deleted all pictures from the app window, and then synched, then tried putting in half as many (mostly because I didn't want to wait for a whole bunch to transfer like the first time ... still showing up in app window, still taking a long time to synch and saying that it is loading, and app percentage of disk space grows accordingly on device (in itunes monitor window). Go to iPhoto on device .... Only pictures are the ones taken by that device. 
    Photos in the sunflower still work like always, just can't use the cool iPhoto on any of my pictures not taken by the ipad or iphone!!!! GRRRRR!!!!!

    This is happening on both the new iPad and iPhone 4.
    I wrote under time pressure yesterday,  here is more complete history.
    purchased iPhoto app on the New iPad, then plugged in, launched iTunes, went to App tab, went to File Sharing - selected iPhoto, Clicked Add... button, selected photos/iphoto ... used daisyA to select all and clicked open.
    All photo names appeared in the iPhoto Documents box. Then clicked Sync button (3 hours later) Sync complete - all photos listed in iPhoto Documents box in iTunes. Memory indicator shows application consumption of memory has grown appropriately for having added all those photos.
    eject and disconnect iPad .... no photos appear in iTunes except for those taken by the device. Did same  procedure on iPhone 4 .... same result. I can group, edit, view, and tinker with the photos taken by the device (ie iPhoto working as it should), however I can't see any of the photos from my long time iPhoto library not taken on this device that the iTunes file share window on the app tab says are there (and app memory usage also indicates are probably there). 
    Turned off both devices and then re-started -- no help
    Soft reset both devices (dimple & power key, hold till restart happens) - even though the power down / power up should do at least the same thing.  No help
    Deleted iPod Photo Cache in iPhoto app (home/pictures/right click iphoto show package contents ... )
    Synched again - no help
    Deleted all pictures listed on app tab in file share window for iPhoto iOS app.
    Synched - indicator for amount of memory used by apps decreases appropriately
    Still can see and use photos taken by device and no others
    Powered down then re- started device again.
    Plugged in and open iTunes, use file share window on app tab to add just a dozen pictures this time (instead of all).  Then sync - Still cannot see the pictures in the iPhoto app on the device .... file share window on app tab of iTunes says they are there. Indicator for memory useage says they are there - progress bar during sync says they are being added, I just cant see them in the iPhoto iOS app when I click on the Photos selector in the iOS iPhoto app. 
    Photos are on the iPad and synching with the ipad from iphoto into the sunflower app that comes with the devices. Just won't go into iPhoto!

  • More Than One App Window Open At A Time

    Hi,
    Having just done a complete fresh Erase & Install of OS X 10.6, after having had 10..4.11, I find that if I have more than one applications window open with another applications window on the screen ~ say a Finder window, and a Photoshop window, although if I select the "Show All" command, I can see them together on screen, but if I select either of the windows, the other applications window disappears ~ and it's driving me nuts ~ IYSWIM?
    Although the disappearing or hidden window is useful, at times I find I need to drag something from one apps window to another. But if I try that, as soon as I select the item I wish to drag into the other app, that applications window disappears.
    I know I'm being dense, but I just cannot sort it out. Can any kind soul please help or advise?
    Many Thanks

    No extra applications had been installed, just the OS X install, so to save time in the long term, I decided to reinstall OS X again, and now the problem is fixed.
    With regards to your comments that an Erase & Install is a waste of time, I think thats a bit of a sweeping statement. As it depends on the situation and the users computer status. If you install programs on a regular basis, for say beta testing, then you can end up with a lot of crud in there. An erase & Install returns your machine to pristine condition. The important thing to remember is to plan well, and make good backups of your data, prefs and settings etc.
    Thanks for responding all the same.

  • OSX 10.8.5 CC Desktop App window empty

    Hi,
    I have the following problem. I used After Effects CC for a customer project and wantet to browse the text animation presets. The system told me, that Bridge is not installed. After logging in at the Adobe CC homepage and clicking on the download button for Bridge I got the message: Unknown Server Error.
    I than followed the steps on the adobe page to solve the problem and updatet the CC desktop app to the newest version. After that the app window simply stays complete empty / blank. Several restarts, deinstallation and reinstallation of the desktop app did not help. The window is still empty.
    When I now click on the Bridge download button and accept opening with CreativeCloud(URIHandler) with another click, nothing happens. The window is empty and I cannot install anything.
    I also tried the second solution on the CC page with deleting the opm.db file in the folder: Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
    But unfortunately there is no file with that name...?
    The system, java etc. is also updatet to the latest versions
    Please help.

    Thanks for the reply.
    I have quit and reopened the cc app several times without success.
    Meanwhile I deleted the complete OOBE folder, deinstalled the CC application and installed again. Nothing changed.
    When I turn off networking, the app works like expected and I can see the relevant menue with all menue points. But without network I cannot use them. When I turn on internet access again, the window remains blank after searching and probably finding network.
    At the moment I cannot launch any CC application because the system identifies me as a test-user - at least that is what I think. If I could login using the cc desktop app, the programs should start as normal. But unfortunately the window is still blank.

  • The Apps window in my Creative Cloud updater is only showing a spinning blue wheel

    I've just updated my app installer to the latest Creative Cloud one but when I open it up, the Apps window only shows a spinning blue wheel, no apps. The other windows (Assets, Community) seem fine.@

    I faced the same problem and hours of searching peoples various solutions. Tried everything under the sun over the last 10 hours to get the Creative Cloud Apps to stop spinning it's blue wheel... and FINALLY I have managed to get this to work for me, using the CC Cleaner tool. Hopefully it works for others also:
    Solution 2: Run the CC Cleaner tool
    Run the CC Cleaner tool to remove the current installation of the Creative Cloud Desktop application. For information on how to download and use the CC Cleaner Tool, see Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6.
    Choose option 3 within the CC Cleaner Tool and then Option 1.
    Mac OS: Rename the /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE to OOBE.old.
    Windows: Rename the following OOBE folders to OOBE.old:
    \Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE
    \Users\\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
    Reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application.

  • Resize javascript debugger window in acrobat

    I feel stupid.  I am trying to learn adobe javascripting.  I am following Adobe's web tutorial.(The tutorial screen shots have nice big windows.)  However the console window only shows 40 characters to a line.  On this debug window, there is no resize icon in the upper right hand corner of the window.  I tried to right click and drag sides, corners, top, and bottom, but no luck. I get a double-ended arrow like it should resize, but the window  The acrobat pro window is full-size, but the debug window is only 1/6th of that window.
    I am using a laptop with Vista Home Premium with Adobe Acrobat 9 with its latest updates.
    I took a look at the general support group, but just questions about using Adobe Acrobat.  I went back two months on the scripting group with no luck.
    Thank you

    you can grab the bottom right corner of the acrobat debug window to resize.  You'll want to make sure to grab the little dotted triangle icon inside the window, not the actual corner of the window itself. 

  • I am no longer able to resize my firefox window horizontally, any ideas?

    I noticed earlier that I can no longer resize my firefox window horizontally, the border seems to have disappeared. I've searched, using google and various other sites to find a solution to this and I'm coming up short. I've tried multiple things, safe mode, hitting F11, clearing the cache/cookies, even reinstalling. The issue still exists and I don't know what caused it. It is also affecting various flash applications, they no longer scale to the window size and parts are cut off. Any ideas?
    Screenie below.
    http://i209.photobucket.com/albums/bb222/Xsase/FirefoxWindow.jpg

    I can resize it using the arrow keys after selecting size but it doesn't solve my issue - once resized I still cannot use my mouse to resize it like I've always been able to. I can resize it Vertically fine but Horizontally doesn't work regardless of what I've tried. I gave thought to the localstore being corrupted as well and even tried making a new profile, it didn't solve the issue. I have added a screenshot showing the window, I don't have it maxed, I used to have 2 borders - 1 on the left and 1 on the right that I could hover over and it would let me resize using the mouse. They no longer exist. I'm using the default theme even since that was suggested as a solution on another forum topic.
    Also, small edit, I apologize for choosing the solution as the fix, it's 3 am and I'm half asleep so I clicked the button meaning to click reply.
    Second edit: I noticed one of my explorer windows having the same issue and part of the border not being there at all so I unloaded Windowblinds and the problem is solved, looks like my profile on it got damaged. Thanks for the replies. Topic can be closed.

  • I can't resize the reply window in Mac Mail

    My mail is working fine.
    If I write a new email it all looks okay.
    If I reply or forward an email the window is so wide it would stretch maybe 3 times the width of my screen, so if I want to use any of the tools in the top right toolbar I have to drag the window across.
    I can resize  up and down to make the window taller or shorter but I can't make it fit onto my screen widthways.
    I have rebooted, hit zoom and now I'm stumped.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Such a simple fix and I spent over an hour on this:
    http://www.adobepress.com/articles/article.asp?p=1930509&seqNum=3
    This is the part that helped me in case anyone goes nuts trying to figure this out. (#2 solved my problem):
    Working with the application window on Mac OS
    In Normal screen mode on Mac OS, resize the application window by dragging its lower right corner.
    Click the green Zoom button (), located beside the Close and Minimize buttons at the left of the title bar. The application window expands to fill the screen. Click the Zoom button again to return to the previous window size.
    Reposition the application window on your screen by dragging the title bar.

  • How to resize the report window in version 5.0.3d?

    Hi guys. I have upgraded the WAAS software from 4.3.1 to 5.0.3d. I was used to get some screenshots for some relevante information I consider and I was used to insert it into an excel file in order to send to the customer.
    The problem is that I am not able to resize/expand the window anymore.
    For example, if I choose the "Device Traffic Summary" or "Traffic Volume and Reduction" to show up in the Device Dashboard, in the previous version, I was able to click in the bottom right and drag the mouse to resize the window. In the version 5.0.3d, I do not see an option to do that. There are only fixed size columns and the only option is to move the report to a different position.
    Is there any way to resize it?
    Thanks in advance
