Want more info about optimizing battery lifespan and performance

I have read Apple Support's basic article on iPhone battery charging, but it doesnt answer all of my questions.  i am kind of a fanatic about maintaining the health and longevity of my battery.  I usually run it down to 3% or less before plugging in, then charge it all the way up.  This creates some inconvenience, but after one year, my iPhone 5 battery is still performing much better than any previous iPhone ever did.  Here are a few questions I have:
1. Is it really neccessary to wait for the battery to drop to 3%, or could I charge it after it goes below 20%, if it is more convenient?
2. Is there any harm in charging to less than 100% if I am in a hurry?
3. If I regularly plugged it in at over 50%, would it develop a memory and hold less charge?
4. What effect, if any, do Mophie Juick Packs have on iPhone battery health (I just got one)?
If there were no memory issues, the most convenient thing to do would be to plug it in every night at bedtime.  Any knowledgable commentary would be welcome.

There's a few aspects to this - and such several "correct" answers.
First, what exactly will you be doing? Are you just editing or will there be vfx/color grading etc? If it is the latter, and you're in SD, I'd personally go with uncompressed 10-bit. The files will be large, but it will be worth it if you do a lot of processing.
ProRes files will be much smaller, and still look very good, but may not hold up as well to heavy processing.
Not sure what you mean with #2... what other codec(s) are you looking at. Saying it is "unnecessary for SD" is an interesting comment - depends on what you want to do with the footage.

  • Expanding iTunes fields to handle more info about each CD (Mac & PC)

    The LP and CD covers often hold a lot of important info about the album, music and artist, producer, history. With the use of physical album covers on the decline as we use iTunes/mp3s more and more, a lot of liner notes and credits are no longer with our music. iTunes doesn't even have a field for Producer or engineer! But what about cover art or room for the players on the records, etc. (can you tell I used to work at record companies?
    I think iTunes needs to be redesigned to take the place of a CD jewel box so we can get much if not all of the info on the digital album. Even a tab for additional artwork as some CDs have not just front cover art but also back cover or what about the box set where there's the boxset art but each CD has it's own CD cover art. Currently I just use the art from the CDs but then lose the art from the outer box, which I would like to be able to include in the future.
    The current Comments fields is WAY too small I'm thinking you could as a tab that would be fore the entire record like the size of lyrics so you could put all the players, liner notes, quotes, etc. in an unstructured way and be able to see most of the data without having to scroll so much.

    You can associate a PDF with an album and put as much or as little information in it as you want. Some album downloads come with digital booklets which may, but often don't, replicate all the information from the original packaging.
    You can also embed additional artwork images in a files tag. Files with multiple images develop two triangles at the top of the artwork box to let you switch between the available images.
    While I agree the artificial limit of 255 characters for Comments in iTunes is annoying if you put any such information into the Lyrics field there is the bonus that it can actually be viewed from your devices.

  • More Info about ProRes

    Hi, I am still trying to learn enough about this topic to feel good about it, so for any of you who've helped me on on this I appreciate it, and I'm still working on it, so bear with me...
    So, the time has come to do some capturing. I have some Beta SP tapes that I'm going to capture. I've been asked to capture them ProRes 422, which is the codec we're editing in. I'm trying to find out more just because I want to make sure this is the most efficient way to do this.
    The white paper says HD files that compare in size to uncompressed SD. I realize this is a reference to how ProRes treats HD material, so what is its effect on SD? Are there pros and cons to capturing the Beta stuff in Apple ProRes vs. capturing uncompressed SD? My biggest questions are:
    1: Between these three things (ProRes 422, ProRes 422 HQ, and Uncompressed 10 bit SD) what are my end file sizes going to be? Is there a storage benefit to any of these, and if so what's the best option?
    2. Is there a better choice? I've heard a lot of people tell me that ProRes is unnecessary for SD stuff, but again, I don't know enough to say otherwise and I've been asked to do it this way, but I've also been asked to find out the advantages to one versus the other here first before we actually rent a deck and start capturing.
    3. Just in general, since I'm obviously floundering on getting a good grasp on the use of ProRes for my particular project, anyone who maybe knows of a good place for me to read up/listen up on ProRes and its uses, especially in regards to SD, I'd greatly appreciate any advice.
    Sorry to keep asking what seems like the same question worded differently, but this time I'm trying to produce a clear comparison so the big guy can make a decision. Thanks a lot!

  • How can i get more info about the sent data in RTP?

    Hello.
    I'm working with the examples AVTransmitt2 and AV Receive2 and i want to get more information about the data that it is being sent to de receiver side. In AVTrasmitt2 i only see a calling to processor.start();. How could i know each packet that AvTransmit2 sends to the other side. I want info like the size of the data, the quality, format, etc..

    Hi!
    As I mentioned above. RTPSocketAdapter has two inner classes, SockOutputStream and SockInputStream.
    SockOutputStream have a write method which is called when RTP data is sent over the NET. SockInputStream have a read method which is called when RTP data is received.
    If you for instance want to know exactly what is sent you can parse the byte array that comes into write.
    Like this:
    * An inner class to implement an OutputDataStream based on UDP sockets.
    class SockOutputStream implements OutputDataStream {
         DatagramSocket sock;
         InetAddress addr;
         int port;
         boolean isRTCP;
         public SockOutputStream(DatagramSocket sock, InetAddress addr, int port, boolean isRTCP) {
              this.sock = sock;
              this.addr = addr;
              this.port = port;
         public int write(byte data[], int offset, int len) {
              if(isRTCP){
                   parseAndPrintRTCPData(data);               
              }else{
                   parseAndPrintRTPData(data);
              try {
                   sock.send(new DatagramPacket(data, offset, len, addr, port));
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   return -1;
              if(debug){
                   System.out.println(debugName+": written "+len+" bytes to address:port: "+addr+":"+port);
              return len;
    private void parseAndPrintRTPData(byte[] data) {
         // part of header, there still left SSRC and CSRC:s
         byte[] rtpHeader = new byte[8];
         System.arraycopy(data, 0, rtpHeader, 0, rtpHeader.length);
         ByteBuffer buffer = ByteBuffer.wrap(rtpHeader);
         int word = buffer.getInt();
         // version
         int v = word >>> 30;
         System.out.println("version: "+v);
         // padding

         System.out.println("reception report count: "+rc);

    Hope this clarifies things.

  • Need info about RH Server 6 and reports

    I'm interisted in RH Server 6 but I'm unable to locate much
    practical info about it on the Web site, and a call to sales didn't
    help. I need to know what I'm getting us into before I contribute
    our $2,000. Can anyone provide this information or point me to its
    location on the site:
    --I have system requirements from the Adobe site, but what is
    the "server" and what does installation and setup entail? About how
    how long does it take, or how difficult, to achieve operability?
    --According to a piece by John Daigle, the server component
    should be installed on a Windows server running IIS 5+. Is IIS a
    separate software or standart part of Windows server? If separate,
    what preparation should that server have before the installation in
    addition to installation of IIS?
    --I know nothing about security/firewall protocols. We will
    have our own and our customer firewalls to navigate. Are the server
    setup instructions adequate for setting all that up? Or are
    purchasers expected to have sys admins knowledgeable to set that
    up? Is that applied to the RH server or the Windows server? if RH
    server, how can I get a copy of instructions for my system people
    to review?
    --Have users found the RH server/RoboEngine reliable, once
    it's operable?
    --Is it true that the usage reports aren't customizable? Can
    additional usage data be specified in the RH server?
    --These report summaries are vague--Areas Requiing Help,
    Frequently Viewed Content--stating only that repoorts show the
    suchandsuch done "most frequently" or "most often." Does that mean
    the top 3, 5, 10 or what? Is there a way to track all of that
    activity from most to least?
    --The summaries of the reports Unanswered Questions and
    Frequently Asked Questions say that terms entered in the Search
    field are identified. Questions and terms aren't the same in my
    book--am I right that it captures anything entered? Can it do the
    same for the Index field?
    --I saw no RH server under downloads, or maybe missed it.
    Correct in guessing that a demo version is not available?
    --Is RH server user doc available on the web site? I found
    the Getting Started gude, which isn't much use in evaluating the
    product.
    I have additional questions, but if you can answer these
    questions or direct me to answers some of those may be covered.
    Thanks,

    Access database.

    Hey, Mike!
    I found a few things for you. I'm in a hurry, so I'll list
    them quickly.
    For the Trial, go to the Adobe downloads page
    http://www.adobe.com/downloads/
    Then select RoboHelp Server 6 from the dropdown list. You
    will be asked to register (free) if you haven't already. When you
    arrive at the download page make sure you note the Trial Serial #
    To make it easier for you, its:
    1336-1033-2628-5062-0993-4570
    You can also find a RoboHelp Server 6 Getting Started Guide
    here
    http://www.adobe.com/support/robohelp/downloads/getting_started_rh6_server.pdf
    You were asking about IIS. Yes. As Colum says, this comes
    with virtually any version of Windows Server (or Windows XP
    Professional). However, you must install and configure it. I am not
    an IT or web administrator so it took me a while to learn, but
    amazingly I got it to work if you're patient and follow the steps.
    (I'm speaking of both IIS and Robohelp Server) Clearly IIS
    configuration is not a trivial thing and it is assumed that an
    author would have help and cooperation from the IT or Web Admin
    folks.
    As for customizing reports. At present, the existing reports
    are the only ones offered. Since these reports are generated from a
    database (Access, SQL Server or Oracle) I would think (haven't done
    it myself) that someone familiar with database adminstration could
    open the DB (after a backup that is) and be more creative with
    generating customized reports.
    You are right that the "Question" does in fact mean any
    search term or phrase that an end user puts in the search field.
    This is the string that is stored and reported as a question. In
    discussing this with the Adobe team at STC last month, they agreed
    that this was definitely a holdover from the legacy software and is
    due for a change sometime in the future.
    To answer your other question, text entered in the Index
    field is not stored in the database, only the search term field.
    Since taking on the old legacy product from eHelp and
    Macromedia, Adobe is focusing most of its attention on beefing up
    the client authoring app for the next version (Adobe RoboHelp 7).
    My assumption is that they are keen on improving the RoboHelp
    Server as well. I have passed along many feature requests along the
    lines you seem to suggest and hopefully the server will evolve
    along with the client app.
    Even with its limitations, my clients tell me RoboHelp Server
    provides very useful feedback to help them improve their knowledge
    base content to make it more helpful and responsive to users needs.
    They also like the searchability of PDF, Word, PPT and Excel as
    well...something which plain WebHelp without the RoboHelp Server
    does not do.
    I probably didn't get to everything, but hope this helps.
    John

  • Need more info about "NestedContainer" violation

    Hello,
    I have a "NestedContainer" violation for a Canvas container in my application. Compared to the application's root container it is located at level 6 i.e. nested in 5 other parent containers. However at the same time I have other containers (again Canvases) which are even deeper nested for example at level 8 compared to the root container.
    I need more information when exactly the "NestedContainer" violation is triggered so I fix my code if needed and submit a bug for FlexPMD in case the rule is not implemented as designed.
    Thanks!
    Smirnoff

    Hi
    I would like to share an example but I need to create it since I don't want to post the actual source code.
    Simply copying the problem mxml file under another name doesn't work because it is put outside its container and then the violation is not generated.
    If I have to create an example it might be too time consuming to achieve these:
    - keep the same component hierarchy
    - keep the problem present
    - keep the example clean from the real source code
    That's why I wanted to get more info when this violation is triggered and hopefully create an example faster.

  • Info about the battery?

    Is it harmful for the battery of my iPad, that when my iPad have for example 50% battery left, I charge him a hole night?
    I already know that it isn't harmful that it charge him the hole night when its empty....
    Plzz someone help me :)

    Yes, it's perfectly OK to charge the battery with 10%, 50% or any percent left. It does not harm the battery nor reduce its useful life. It's also not harmful to leave it connected to the charger when not using it (or even when using it.) You just don't want to leave it connected to the charger all the time for one or two consecutive years because without use the battery's life will be shortened.

  • Get more info about the last errors in Oracle

    Hi all,
    There is a log in a live system where it is possible to see every minute the following error:
    Sweep Incident[48073]: failed, err=[1858]
    I know that error can happen mainly when:
    1. Trying to insert caracter field in a numeric column
    2. Using in the wrong way the function to_date()
    I need more information about that error, what can be causing the error in the system and why. Is it possible to see more information about the last errors in Oracle? For example, if a query produces an error... is it possible to see in Oracle the error and the query that caused the error?
    Hope you can help me.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks Niall.
    I'm not sure if I got you...
    What I found is that MMON makes snapshots of the database 'health' and stores this information in the AWR. So, it seems like in the database there could be a numeric column that is storing character fields, and when MMON works, it finds that error... is that right?
    I found the following information:

    Is there any way I can see what MMON is doing and when is failing?
    Thank you very much.

  • Barclay APR - more info about SP cli?

    Called in to Barclay today and inquired about APR reduction. They transferred me to specialist who took me from 24.99 to 20.99. (score 605 when approved, 700 now.) I asked about a SP CLI and she said I did not have an offer (only had the card for 4 months) but to call back. Every other time I have asked about the mythical SP CLI, I have been adamently informed that IT DOES NOT EXIST. I wanted to ask for her direct number! She said to call back next month. So my question is, how long did you have the card before receiving a SP CLI? I am hoping I get some auto luv @ 6 or 7 months but I think my profile supports a hefty increase from the measly $250 I was granted w/ 4 months history and only one other card. ($200 secured Discover IT) I would just rather not waste a HP getting there, especially with my Venture on its way. Thanks yall! 

    Approved 04/30 with an initial line of $1000, recon'd immediately and got bumped to $2500. July 7th called in to request APR reduction, not an option however a SP CLI was available. Took it and got an additional $1k bump. Also APR on my Arrival card got dropped from 14.99% to 13.99% but no change to Sallie Mae. Not a lot but I did gladly accept the luv from them.
