Some small bugs and errors

Hi,
In the meantime, waiting for the DPS network fix, I have some small bugs and errors to post:
#1: When signed ot from the folio builder panel, the click to create new folio message isn't useful, as it doesn't work. You must be signed in.
#2: "System Status" cut off on the DPS Status Website:

Hi Bob,
Just tested again. but nope, it doesn't work for me anymore. Since one of the latest updates, I can only create folios, when I'm signed in. Here is my video proof:
This is the case for me on two (tested) computers running CS5.5 and CS6!
That's why I thought this feature has been removed.

Some imovie bugs, and a work-around for one!

CRACKING OF AUDIO IN CROSS DISSOLVES:
This one's been documented a lot - the crackling noise when cross dissolving two clips (anyone been following New Scientist? The podcast on 'crackling' is hilarious). I originally thought it was just a preview glitch, but the movie was actually exported with the sound error as well. It also applies to the titling.
Try this if this if: http://discussions.apple.com/post!default.jspa?forumID=858 doesn't work.
In my movie, I dissolve between shots with virtually the same ambient noise in the background. To fix the problem, I extracted the audio of the clip before the dissolve, copied and pasted it into the timeline after, and clipped it down to a size to cover the cross dissolve. Place it over the transition on the track below, and drop the sound on the transition to zero.
I appreciate this won't work in dissolves between sound fields or scenes and takes some time, but it sorted the problem for me.
OTHER BUGS:
- In the titling pane, the small thumbnail window does not always reflect the time and pause of the final render / 'preview' in full mode. the best example of this seems to be 'scrolling text' - its way out.
- as mentioned, sound dies when titles are added over moving clips. See fix above.
- copy and pasting of extracted audio seems random on the timetime - had to search up and down for where the program dumps it. Should paste at the playhead?
I'm sure some or most of these errors have been documented before. However, I found them all in a single use of imovie, and considering the programs in its 6th version, I consider it a poor performance... the audio problems particularly are unacceptable... does Apple presume that if you don't fork out for Final Cut, you don't need an editor capable of exporting a clean movie? From what I've read, some of these glitches have existed for a while.
If I've documented anytihng new, I hope someone who can relay them further does!

What I do is lock the punch-in in time, move it to an adjacent track, make a split in the track I punched in over and roll that track back to the extent of the punch-in and then move the punch-in back down to the original track.
Like your method it also sounds harder than it actually is :-)
It just goes to show there's more than one way to .....

Some small bug is client

Client interface language in "Nederlands".
The text "To" for received emails and calendar objects is wrong, should be "aan" is now "t/m"
Just funny:
New message: Change the language check to none dutch and the gray text for "klik om een handtekening toe te voegen" is also marked as "wrong"
If language "language check" (still Dutch interface language) is set to english and a new email is created then the "...handtekening..." is not marked.
Problem with right-click.
On the "Bron van bericht" (external email) page.
When you want to kopie some of the text: Select the text, and then you have to right click twice before the menu is shown

Hans,
there are a couple of localization issues in GW2014, from what I can see.
If I were you, I'd open an SR and make sure it gets logged.

Small bug and fix starting SQL Developer on Mac OS X

I couldn't find anyone else mentioning this so I'll write it in.
If I started SQL Developer in one user I couldn't start it again in another user, even after quitting out of the first. I would double click the icon and it would do the animated "zoom" but then nothing.
I tracked it down to a problem in SQLDeveloper.app/Contents/MacOS/sqldeveloper.sh. When it redirects the output of the call to the start scipt in the /sqldeveloper/bin directory it would fail because the /tmp/sqldeveloper-startup.log was owned by the first user to start the App (since the /tmp was cleared anyway). My umask didn't give it permission to start overwriting that file.
To fix it I changed the last line in SQLDeveloper.app/Contents/MacOS/sqldeveloper.sh to:
bash ./sqldeveloper >/tmp/sqldeveloper-startup.$$.log
so that the PID was now part of the name and each initiation of SQL Developer would have its own.
You could also change the last line to:
bash ./sqldeveloper >$(mktemp /tmp/sqldeveloper-startup.log.XXXXX)
which would guarantee more uniqueness but wouldn't let you know which process was using the file.
Savvy Mac users can edit the script themselves by right-clicking on the SQLDeveloper.app and selecting "Show Package Contents". You may have to temporarily change the file permissions to let you edit it.
For the record I'm running SQL Developer 1.2.0 on a Mac TiBook G4 867MHz with Mac OS X 10.4.10 and 1Gb RAM (and it is still maddeningly slow because Java fundamentally sucks).
-Bion

Ok - I think I found it.
Go into ~/Library/Application Support/SQL Developer/system1.5.3.57.83/o.ide.11.1.1.0.22.49.44 (or similar for whatever version you're running) and edit the settings.xml file there.
Look for a block that looks like:
<Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
<first class="java.lang.String">delete-previous</first>
<second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">
<data>
<Item class="javax.swing.KeyStroke">[0]</Item>
</data>
</second>
</Item>
and change it to:
<Item class="oracle.javatools.util.Pair">
<first class="java.lang.String">delete-previous</first>
<second class="oracle.ide.keyboard.KeyStrokes">
<data>
<Item class="javax.swing.KeyStroke">[8]</Item>
</data>
</second>
</Item>
I'm not sure why, but this file seems to always contain the incorrect keystroke value when I do a fresh install of SQL Developer. I always have to go in and change that value by hand. I've tried choosing any number of the accelerator presets, but none of them make the delete key work.

Transferring Purchases Bug and Solution

I just found a bug, and after some of trial-and-error, I also found a solution, so I thought I'd post it here in case anyone else is having the same problem, and to make apple aware of it so it can be fixed in a future iPod Touch update.
I recently purchased a song on my iPod Touch, but when I plugged it in, it wouldn't transfer it to my mac. I eventually discovered that this was because I had dragged the 30 second preview from the iTunes store to a playlist (a "Wish List" if you will), and had forgotten that it was there. This must have confused iTunes into thinking that I already had the song on my mac. However, I did not, it was merely the preview in the music store. So if any of you are having a problem, check to see if this helps.

Thank you so much!!!! I was frustrated with it not transferring, and I do the same thing with wish lists. That helped me a lot. Thank you!!!

A small bug in Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 8.1 and Windows 7

First of all, do excuse me as I have absolutely no idea where to go to report bugs in either Windows Media Player, or the Microsoft's Media Foundation filters that most probably handle the actual parsing and decoding. I see that some related bug reports
have gotten noticed here on the Technet forums, and thus ended up writing here.
Some time ago I helped a fellow internet user to update his encoding pipe line from quite an older version of ffmpeg and libx264 to a newer one. After some testing, I noticed him being unhappy with the result because of "black borders" around the
video clip, but only in WMP12, not in other players. Being interested in what this was, I went on and started checking out the behavior.
What I found out is that, with the newer ffmpeg and libx264, WMP12 was only seeing the video resolution (which was 1440x1080) at first, and resized/matched the player window according to that. Only after that did it then, within this window, actually show
the video and apply the correct aspect ratio to it (4:3 sample/pixel aspect ratio, or 16:9 display aspect ratio). In other words, the video would play correctly, but within a 4:3 display aspect ratio video surface, leading to black bars on the top and the
bottom.
Now, if you manually resize the window, the black borders would of course go away. This is because they were not part of the video, but just something the player had based its window size calculations on originally. With the older ffmpeg + libx264 mix
things would Just Work, and the auto-sizing worked.
So I went off to look up all the data in the files that could relate to aspect ratio :) .
[tkhd: Track Header Box] in the container has the width and height set to 1920x1080 in both files, so this is most probably ignored
[pasp: Pixel Aspect Ratio Box] in the container is only present in the new one, and thus most probably ignored. hSpacing and vSpacing are set to 4 and 3, thus becoming 4:3 (this is the
pixel or sample aspect ratio, so this is correct for 1440x1080 to be shown as 16:9). This information, if available, should trump the aspect ratio information in the stream (a quote from ISO/IEC 14496-12: "These
(pasp and clap boxes) are both optional; if present, they over-ride the declarations (if any) in
structures specific to the video codec, which structures should be examined if these boxes are absent.") .
In the actual AVC/H.264 stream both files have aspect_ratio_idc set. The older file has the value set to 255 (Extended_SAR structure follows), and Extended_SAR then contains sar_width set to 4 and sar_height set to 3. On the newer file, on the other hand,
we have a value of 14. Looking at the H.264 specification, value 14 is defined as "4:3 , 1440x1080 16:9 frame without horizontal overscan"
So... Since the pasp box seems to be completely irrelevant and ignored, and since the tkhd box contains exactly the same information in both cases and thus seems to be ignored, the only thing that comes to mind is that:
Only the information from the AVC/H.264 video stream is actually taken into mention at this stage.
The AVC/H.264 video stream parser does not know the aspect_ratio_idc value 14.
I haven't actually tried to change the values in the parameter set's VUI parameters around to be sure of this being the reason, but, unless WMP misunderstands what the pasp box's value means (4:3 read as the aspect ratio for the whole picture, instead of
one sample/pixel), that's the only reason I can see this happening because of.
A small sample mp4 file for this issue is provided at fushizen.eu/samples/wmp12_mp4/merry_christmas.mp4 . Having the automatic zoom set to 50% does help replicating it with smaller displays :) . WMP will resize its video window to a 4:3 display aspect ratio,
and then show the 16:9 display aspect ratio content within that. This happens with both Windows 8.1 as well as Windows 7, on Windows Media Player 12.
Now, if the issue is actually on ffmpeg's or libx264's side, feel free to note the technical problems with the sample, and I will review and then report them if I see the related specifications agreeing on the issue. So far this seems to be purely a problem
with the related Media Foundation filters, and/or Windows Media Player 12.

I have a lot of grief with this version of Windows Media Player.
It is very buggy and frustrating to use.
I have my Music library on a QNAP NAS, which is as reliable as they come.
System notifications make it not save changes. It also does not do a good job of interpreting albums and artists from folders. Changes to track names are not saved, nor are tracks moved to other albums, renamed albums, changes to genre, artist
or date. It separates and merges albums/tracks without sense or reason. Some changes I've made up to 4 times, then closed WMP and re-started my machine to check if it has/hasn't saved the changes. Often it has not.
This is the first time I've used WMP in this capacity, and I do not recommend it.
New service pack please.

It looked like a small bug going up and down on my screen then it stopped about 12 o clock a quarter of the way from the top, now it seems to be burned in to the inside of the screen, anyone seen this before? And what can be done about it, macbook pro

I have what looked like a small bug that ran up and down the screen and then sudenly stopped in center upper half of screen and now appears to be burned in to the inside of the screen, anyone had this probelm before and what can be done about it?

Thanks for the suggestion, the next step was to call Apple, who gave me a claim number, which I discovered you must have to get anything done with them. They refered me to a Apple store or repair center, after some reseach took it to the Computer Store in Mobile, Alabama and they were excellent. They took pictures of the screen with bug submitted it to Apple who denied the claim but they kept kicking it up to the next level and finally Apple agreed to sent new cover. The Computer Store had the cover the next day, they changed it out and now I am bug free. If your in the area of Mobile Alabama you can feel good about getting help from the Computer Store. For the two folks that responded to my note, Thank You, good comments and good advice.

Fixing up some logic around pauseWhenHidden (there were some bugs) and also changing some logic around enabling/disabling. Also fixing a small documentation bug on VideoPlayer2.scaleMode.
When a video component (or one of its ancestors) becomes disabled, the video pauses. When it becomes re-enabled, we do not play the video. This behavior is baked in to VideoDisplay and does not depend on the pauseWhenHidden flag.

Thanks Erik,
If nothing else, this huge list of updates and fixes, shows clearly that the Logic Dev team is working hard on fixing and improving LPX to a major degree.... and from the list of fixes done.. show they do read the bug reports submitted!
As an aside....
I recall how all the 'naysayers' prior to LPX (and in some cases, since...) were proclaiming how Logic was dead, the team was being disbanded, we won't see any further development, the Dev team doesn't listen or care... and so on....... I wonder where those people are now?

Keyword Bugs and Some Keywording Improvement / Feature Suggestions

Tagging Bugs and Some Improvement / Feature Suggestions
Please excuse where I should use the word Tag or Keyword or vice versa!
1.       BUG?    If a tag synonym is added or changed then all affected photos should be marked for re-publish. I do not think this currently happens.   Should this possibly be considered a bug?
2.       BUG?    When viewing a smart collection in a Flickr publish service and a new tag is added to a photo it is correctly moved to the “requires re-publish” section.   However … the thumb selection in the grid moves to the next photo, the loop view remains on the photo just tagged and the key wording still reflects the just tagged photo.    The selection shown in the grid appears to be wrong.      When working quickly this can result in tagging errors as the user looking on the grid believes he is working on the next highlighted photo in the grid.      This is surely a bug?
3.       BUG?      A minor point and I realise this is probably not the correct way to do things … but a double word synonym entered with quotes for example “Ice Climbing” will create two tags “Ice” and “Climbing” at the flicker end of things.    Removal of this synonym and forcing a re-publish does not delete these two tags at the flicker end of things.    I may have miss-understood, but perhaps it is best for LR not to allow quoted tags?
4.       SUGGESTION      An easier and more powerful way to review tagging of current photos should be provided whereby it is possible to clearly see the current tagging of a photo and have immediate access to the keyword list at the same time to make corrections.    Having both the Keywording and Keyword List panels open in Library mode results in a lot of up and down scrolling for me and is a slightly inelegant UI in my opinion.   I would suggest it should at very least be possible to have the tags viewable in Loop info as an option - so long as no truncation is made and all tags visible.    Ideally a better way should be sought.
5.       SUGGESTION      It would be very useful when reviewing tagging to select to show all photos in the currently selected folder or set which do not contain the selected tag.    Note, I don’t think this can be easily achieved by using a keyword filter and selecting all keywords and unselecting the tag of interest as the pictures may have many tags.    The same might be performed by textual based searches but this is inelegant and its slowness precludes a browsing approach.     For example – for me it would be useful to look at all my mountain shots in a trip which have not been tagged with “Glacier” and it will be immediately visually apparent where I need to make tagging corrections.    I would suggest a “Not” checkbox is made available on the top of each column in the library filter – this may also provide a great deal of power for other situations.
6.       SUGGESTION      It would be useful to allow a means of showing all pictures with a certain tag but which have not been tagged yet with any children of said tag.   For example all pictures tagged with Glacier which I have not yet named the glacier by introducing a relevant child tag or selecting an existing child tag.    A similar situation occurs for wildlife and potentially many other scenarios … I would like to use a tag “Butterfly” which I can quickly use on my first pass… and then do the identification and child tagging on a second pass using appropriate filtering.   This allows for a step wise or “top down” approach to tag classifying things in a workflow.    I appreciate this can be achieved (as I do now) by using a child tag called “Unnamed butterfly” or “Unnamed Glacier” but it seems more powerful, elegant and generically applicable to be able to filter on a “not tagged with a child” basis.
I apologise if I have missed the point on some existing functionality on any of these points and welcome any suggestions.

This is a great post.
I couldn't have written it myself better.
I'm also in dying need of Korean input as I can't communicate with my Korean friends.

Satellite P500-1D6 - Small bug between cover plate and screen.

Hi
I have a small bug (in Dutch: "donderbeestje") between the protective glass and the actual screen.
Where I bought the laptop they yell me that they can't do anything about it and this is not under warranty of Toshiba.
For me however, this should be under warranty of Toshiba.
The screen with it's upper layers should be firmly closed so that no foreign objects can come in between.
So, my question is if this is under warranty or if not, what can I do to get this thing out of there?
Kind regards,
Pascal.

Hey,
Regarding such hardware related problems you should contact an official authorized service provider. The guys can repair notebooks under warrant for free if its a warranty case. Furthermore they can give you an exact if its normal or hardware problem.
Here its only an user to user forum so nobody can give you an exact answer but a full list of all ASPs you can find here:

Looking for some help with an error message when exporting master file. I'm stuck and would even pay to get this sorted out!

Hey guys, I'm really in a bind here and need some urgent help tonite. I would even be willing to pay for some actual help and not some vague information that i may not be able to understand if we could do something via skype or some other way that would be much quicker than a message board. Of course I have to have the project done by tomorow . so I'm new to fcpx, but have succesfully exported 2 other projects. I've also ran into this predicament before (error message not allowing me complete export) and have been able to solve that by converting the files i imported off my camera (canon g20) to a different file type (prores).
so where I'm at now: i have a 13 min short, all shot on my canon g20, imported and converted to prores422 with the brorsoft video converter with all the shots in a single event in fcpx. i'm using fcpx version 10.0.08. I have one main video track in my timeline that is completely full of very fast edits. (all quick 2-5 second clips, sped up shots in 2x, 4x, or 8x, tons of transitions, titles, and a little fx. theres 2 audio tracks, one is narration/speech and the other is an ongoing music track that constantly ducks everytime the subject speaks (tons of ducks/edits). Have you seen mtv cribs? Well i filmed an EXACT replica. So If you've seen one of those episodes, its literally the same exact same thing. I have all of my work completed, everything has been fully rendered, and i have it exactly as I want it.
I'm including all this information in case it may help. my successful projects ive exported in the past were rather simple, and this one is very complex and full of edits. here is what it looks like in the timeline:
Ive tried exporting the master file using almost all the different ways with no luck. My primary objective is to get it on youtube by any means by tommorow for a showing to a potential buyer (long story) and so I've been told using the h.264 is the best format for that. This, along with the other methods give me the same error message:
It think it gives this error message when i reach 24% everytime during export.
So first of all, what is that error message? Do i need to be concerned about the specifics of it, or is there something major that I'm missing? Like i said, i dont care how, but I need to get this video up on youtube tonite for an important viewing tomorrow. Conceptually, I think if i can figure this one out I shouldnt have any more trouble in the future doing something so basic, yet critical, such as exporting my 40+ hours of work for someone to see.
anyway, I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge with this software, and for my extremely long winded question which will probably have the opposite effect for me as most wont want to take the time to read all this, BUT i figured if i was as thorough as possible it might help actually getting a concrete answer, instead of a "read the manual, exporting is on page 37." or "use the share button on the right of the timeline then just click export master file and it will work everytime."
Cheers everybody, and thank you. Like i said if someone is up, and willing to talk via skype, phone, messanger or any other method that works for you I would be totally down and will compensate you generously for your time. thanks again.
Taphabit

boom! that advice was correct and worked. i was able to export the full project as a quicktime movie and it can be uploaded to youtube.
NOTE, theres is definately quite a few noticeable audio glitches/lags/pops that werent there before doing this. I believe, and will test to make sure, that having a project such as this one needs to render before exporting. I'm not sure if the advice requires the project to be unrendered before exporting for a specific reason, because if it will export fine after rendering the project that's the way to go. like i said the edited version i have in my timeline plays back perfectly but this exported version has quite a few noticeable audio glitches (a few video glitches too). I'm going to retry doing the first few steps of your advice, but then at the end render, then export and compare the results...
OK, so this leads to a big question, Is this something that is standard for everyone when trying to export? If its not, what causes this error?
is there any way of preemptively avoiding it in future projects?
thanks again, and hopefully this information will help others as exporting seem to be one of the biggest problems in fcpx. any word on a new patch or firmware update?

In putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I wnt to red

picture size...in putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I want to reduce the image to fit the size of the box.

If you right click on the image on the page in the context menu select photo box alignment and then select one of scale to fit {centered, Left-aligned, Right-aligned}
That should do what you are loking for.

In some web pages, pdf files are downloaded in very small kb and not opening despite I have Adobe reader, Pro and plug in

I have Firefox 3.6.6, downgraded from higher versions since I have this problem below.
At some web pages (mostly professional academic sites like Oxford Journals), when I am clicking to get pdf of an article, Firefox start downloading ridiculously small size and cannot open it as it gives the message "Acrobat could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged ..."
I know the file is not damaged, because I can open them in explorer. And some websites are also working properly in Firefox. I do not care if it opens in firefox or pops up separately.
I have reloaded Acrobat and Firefox but problem continues.

hello vijayabhaskarv, that sounds as if you're using the pdf viewer built into firefox per default, which might not work in all situations. please see the following article in order to select a different plugin to render pdf files: [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]

How can iOS5 be a software bug and only effect some iPhones?

How can IOS 5 be a software bug and not effect every device running that firmware? Could it be a hardware issue? Has anyone noticed in Settings>About>Diagnostics there are loads more logs about crashing/low memory/ and many others since IOS5?

It probably has something to do with settings. I haven't had any battery drain issue on my 4S (which started out with settings I restored from a backup of my iPhone 3G), but I had extremely rapid drain on my iPad 1 when I upgraded to iOS 5. I figured out quite quickly that it was the auto time zone support, and turning it off made things basically perfect again. I suspect it might be because I was previously using iOS4 on the iPad, and some setting or something was creating the problem, which was absent on the iPhone.
Of course, that's pure speculation— if Apple has it figured out, they could choose to transparently explain what exactly the bug was (though I suspect we won't get any details like that)
