Viewing TV content on a Plasma Screen

What with the high amount of TV contect now available on the internet I looking for a way to conect a laptop to my home entertainment system. Would a macbook be a good choice for this? What type of conection would I use.

If your TV has a DVI or HDMI connection you'd want to connect via Apple's mini DisplayPort-to-DVI adapter, but for HDMI you'd have to add either a DVI-to-HDMI cable or adapter from a third party. The possible setups would thus be:
MacBook -> Apple mini DisplayPort-to-DVI + DVI cable -> TV with DVI connector.
MacBook -> Apple mini DisplayPort-to-DVI -> DVI-to-HDMI adapter + HDMI cable -> TV with HDMI connector.
You can even purchase third-party cables that have DVI on one end and HDMI on the other. Hovever, you won't get any audio through Apple's adapter since the mini DisplayPort on the MacBook doesn't pass audio and in any case audio pass-through isn't supported under DVI.
If your TV doesn't have DVI or HDMI inputs then you face a more difficult and lower-quality option. You'd start with Apple's mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter and then add a third-party VGA-to-analog-TV converter. Here is a post which talks about this latter option:

Open your QuickTime control panel (either via the Control panels, or by going "Edit > Preferences > QuickTime Preferences" in the Quicktime Player). In the Advanced tab, uncheck Enable Direct3D video acceleration:
... and click OK. Quit and restart the QuickTime Player prior to checking to see if the settings change has had any effect.

As of yesterday afternoon, I can no longer view the content of email on my iPhone. When I open the email, there's no content.

As of yesterday afternoon, I can no longer view the content of email on my iPhone. I can view it on my iPad and my iMac. When I open the email, there's no content. Contact and subject appear, but zero content. It seems to be chronically "checking for email" at the bottom of the screen, whereas the email downloading indicator at the top has finished. This issue is across all three of my email accounts.

Can't view uPerform content with Flash Plugin 10.1.102.64

My company uses uPerform a product that we use to create flash based simulations and WBTs. After downloading the most recent version of the flash player, I have not been able to view existing content published on a server. When users accesss Flash content it displays a blank white or black screen. I have seen an article which seems to describe my issue entirely, but it was posted as an Adobe Captivate issue. There is a workaround for the product, but it directed towards users have problems with Captivate.
Here is a link to one of our published simulations:

Viewing Auto CAD file in DMS Screen

Hi,
Our client wants to view Autocad file within SAP DMS Screen (SAP Screen side panel).
As per my study, We need Visual Enterprise Generator (VEG) to view 2D, 3D and few other format files.
VEG will convert CAD files into lightweight format (Viewer format) and it will get stored in the same Content server where the Original stored.
I understand that VEG is not part SAP ECC, we have to get seperate license for VEG.
Is there any other way, will fulfill my requirement?
Else, What is the licensing cost, technical requirements to implement VEG?
Please help me on this.
Thanks,
Ravi

Authorization error when viewing the contents of a cube.

Hi all,
I created a cube,loaded data into it. When I want to view the contents I get this below error...
any clues on how to debug this.....
Your user master record is not sufficiently maintained for object Commodity and Company Code Auth object
Message no. BRAIN805
Diagnosis
When checking your authorizations for object 'Commodity and Company Code Auth object' (technical name: ZCOMSEC) it was established that you do not have authorization in your user master record for this object (return code 12).
Procedure
How you continue depends on the return code. See the online documentation for ABAP language element "AUTHORITY-CHECK". Please note:
With a return code of 12, the object 'Commodity and Company Code Auth object' has not been maintained in the user master, meaning there is no profile in the user master record in which this authorization object has been entered. This is, however, absolutely necessary, as all of the authorization objects created in the development class RSR are validated in the 'and' link. If the authorization is missing for only one object, the request is rejected as unauthorized.
Get the person responsible for your authorization to create you a profile containing authorization for object Commodity and Company Code Auth object.
thanks.

Hi Kiranmai;
Seems like the Object to execute the viewing contents of the cube is not included in your user profile. you need to go to the T-code SU01 and add the missing object into your profile. Click on the maintain objects at the bottom of the screen this is where you can add this object. If you are not sure which object that you are having this authorization issue,,you can put the trace on it via t-code ST01:Do the following steps.
1. Go to tcode ST01.
2. put the trace on your user id. ( can ask this to your Basis guy if you don't know how to do it).
3. then execute the view content of the cube.
4. when you get autho. error, go to the ST01 again, and have the trace off, and view the trace. you will see the name of the Object that needs to be included in your userid via SU01, do not forget to activate and Generate the profile after the addition. The return code 12 is the return type of the object that you are having problems.
Hope this answers your question.

Authorization error when trying to view Infocube content

Hi,

need help on this
Thanks In Advance..

Hi,
First check in RSSM whether your InfoProvider is checked for authorization object 0PERS_AREA. Also determine whether do you need this authorization object ?If yes, then it should be checked otherwise check mark should be unchecked. If 0PERS_AREA is checked for your InfoProvider, then you should have some value in this object when you create the role. Either * for all values or restricted value for it. Goto Pfcg select the role and add the authorization values for the 0PERS_AREAobject.

Titles on plasma screens

Hi everyone,
I have trouble with creating smooth titling for video work that gets shown on something as big as 62" Plasma screens.
The video work is a mix of DV footage, powerpoint slides and titling created in FCP and it all looks neat up to the point where I put it out as an mpg for the DVD and show it on those plasmas: the titling, mainly the one created in FCP looks really jagged and pixelated.
I tried to look up some previous posts on the subject and read that it has to do with Plasma screens working in progressive mode and causing problems to interlaced video.
I rendered the videos out in progress mode (after I tried usual interlaced) through compressor and tried various other options but it doesn't get any better. Is this something I have to live with once it gets to that size of viewing format or is there a specific title tool/plug in/ other application that I should use?
The final piece is loaded with text so of course it is kind of nice to be able to work on it in FCP as I have freedom to move the individual video layers around in case the client decides to change something afterall.
There is no problem from the original DV footage...it's just the titling which looks absolutely poor.
Thanks for all advice!
Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Thin fonts and serif fonts will tend to get a bit crunchy upon conversion to mpeg.
When you say "dv" do you mean 4:3? If you are working 4:3 and it is filling the screen on a 62" tv, it's getting blown up larger than screen resolution which will increase the jaggies. Plus interlacing issues as you mentioned...
Good luck.

Tab across Rows within View/Edit Contents?

I want to enable the "Tab" functionality within the View/Edit Contents inside the Enterprise Manager Console so that I can tab across Rows of data on any Table. How is this set?

Did you ensure that you have adapted very well the OEM to your screen ?
OEM has some scroll-bars that you can control until the end if you adapt the screen well.

In IO7 how can I view my music videos in full screen?

Downloaded IO7 onto my 4S and now I cannot view my music videos in full screen. Why would I pay $3.39 for a music video from the iTunes store when I can't view the videos in full screen. The video player does it but you can't create playlists, repeat etc so that is not an option.

I do not understand what you want to do. Please rephrase the question.

Hi Sri,
it looks that your HANA instance has been created before we enabled the web-based development workbench. Some privileges are missing, we can't migration those existing instances.
Nevertheless you can ignore the error above. You can see all the content inside your instance "smstest1".
If you want to get rid of the cosmetic issue. You might delete this instance and create a new one.
Best regards

Want to run a Mac Mini into a 50" Samsung Plasma screen TV...will it work?

The TV is a Samsung PN50B850 Plasma screen with a VGA input: http://reviews.cnet.com/flat-panel-tvs/samsung-pn50b850/4505-6482_7-33490381.htm l
Hee are the tech specs: http://ecoustics-cnet.com.com/flat-panel-tvs/samsung-pn50b850/4507-6482_7-334903 81.html?tag=mncol;psum
From what I can tell it should just plug right into the VGA input on the TV...but my question is am I going to have any issues with resolution or anything like that?
Also, from the pictures it looks like the DVI to VGA adapter that apple offers is only like 3 inches long? Do they make them longer than this? I had planned on mounting the TV on the wall above my fireplace on an arm that tilts and swings out about 2-3 ft and just sitting the Mac Mini on the mantle...anyways I didn't want to go away on vacation, have my mom come over, adjust the TV, and send my Mac Mini to its untimely death:(

Could you please tell me the exact settings you have on your TV and your mac.
Under what menu are you selecting PC DVI?
What resolution and other settings do you have your mac set to?
Currently I have mine setup like so:
Mac Mini with mini dvi to dvi adaptor then a cable dvd to hdmi.
I then have that hdmi plug into port 2 of my tv that says (HDMI/DVI on it.
On the mac I have resolution set to 1920 x 1080 and i have overscan ticked.
The picture is OK but up close i would not say it is perfectly crisp (especially text) but from a about 6 feet away it seems fine.
Is the text on your screen pin sharp?
Thanks in advance
