What are the best quality wireless speakers for use with iTunes

I'm not sure which is the best forum for this.  SO here goes:
I want to replace my wired powered speakers from my iMac with wireless so I can place them further away and clean up the desptop area.  I want decent sound and volume not tinny little portable junk.  But it doesn't need to meet audiophile standards either,
What am I looking for?  Thanks.

Intel processor in you MB Pro? Need it to capture avchd.
regarding file size and the need for external drive:
"AVCHD output files are about 120Mb per minute of footage. The converted output file will be about four times the size of the input. This is because AVCHD is a highly compressed HD format and we are uncompressing it into a Quicktime-friendly high definition format. Our example 1 minute AVCHD clip becomes about 500Mb in size, after conversion.
The final size of a converted clip has a lot to do with the amount of movement in the clip. A lot of movement will mean a larger file. Action clips can be as high as 7 times the size of the raw clips."

  • What's the Best Open Source DB for use with Kodo?

    Hi everyone,
    In terms of ease of setup and use, tools to view info in the database, and least difficulty in
    running with Kodo, what is the best open source database to use? I'm use to using Oracle and
    SQLPlus. I need to use an open source DB for a learning environment, and I'd like your informed
    opinion.
    Thanks,
    David Ezzio

    I have been using postgresql 7.1 with Kodo for a while with mostly positive results, and currently
    have it deployed with Kodo 2.2.3. I prefer it to mysql because its feature set is a little richer,
    and supports transactions natively. My experience with mysql (without jdo - I haven't tried it with)
    is good, but there were little things missing in mysql 3.x, e.g. the ability do do a join in a
    DELETE statement.
    BTW, there are some severe problems somewhere in the 2.2.4 release with postgresql if you intend to
    eventually deploy on it. It also apparently has some problems invoking postgresql's indices, making
    it a little less than optimal. But as a learning environment, it's what I'd recommend.

    David-
    Here is the rundown of the databases I have experience with:
    MySQL: Fairly simple to install (especially if you run Debian Linux), but
    configuration, especially adding users, can be a pain. A separate open
    source project called "mysql-navigator" makes it fairly easy to do
    simple queries, inserts, etc. In most of my tests it outperforms
    PostgreSQL, but your mileage will vary. It has a sane CLI that supports
    modern features like line history, etc (unlike the horrific SQLPlus).
    PostgreSQL: People often say that it is a more "academically
    correct" database than MySQL. I've also found it to be quite a bit
    easier to set up. Their GUI (called "pgaccess") is simplistic, but does
    most things you need. Has a CLI similiar to MySQL's.
    HypersonicSQL: By far the easiest to set up (just drop the jar in your
    CLASSPATH), but is java only, can be rather slow, and has no GUI tools
    available that I know of (except various free vanilla-JDBC GUI tools).
    We feel that Kodo works quite well with all these DBs. The MySQL JDBC
    driver seems a bit less buggy than Postgres', but their transaction
    support is very recent and not very well tested. If I had to pick one or
    the other, I would probably go with MySQL.

  • What is the best camera encoding format for use with iMovie09?

    I may well get a new camera, so might as well get one that likes iMovie.
    Probably not DV ...given the single field processing thing...
    I'd like to get good quality results (ie: good image display on DVD) without getting into proffesionnal equipment. Let say a $500US budget.
    What characteristics should I look for?
    Should I stay away from HD or can I get good HD quality with iMovie09? (I dont have an HD television yet, but no doubt that will come)
    Thanks!
    By the way: I have Final Cut Express as well, but you know, I much prefer the iMovie09 interface because to me, this is just a hobby and I can not spend too much time dealing with a fairly complex program.

  • What is the best external typing keyboard for use with logic studio?

    I'm currently using Logic 7 and looking to upgrade to Logic STUDIO.
    I want to get a nice typing keyboard with coloured and customised keys (short-cuts) to use in place of the MACBOOK keyboard.
    I have previously bought the stickers from Editors keys, but there key command sets suck.
    Hoping someone can suggest a better company offering a better product with more intuitive key command settings so that it matches well with LOGIC STUDIO - assuming its been simplifed with its work flow, I want a typing keyboard to match.
    Also is it worth gettinga jog wheel to use in place of or in addition to a mouse - I think this is called a shuttle.
    Anyway please send your suggestions through.
    Thanks

    I believe that there are keyboard overlays for Logic available for the Apple Keyboards... although, I don't think there's anything for 8 yet, seeing as the release probably took them by surprise.
    However, I do agree that using a wireless keyboard and mighty mouse are must-haves... at least in my studio. They allow me to work at my piano and control Logic from a distance (I don't like assigning MIDI commands, outside of my control surface). However, I do with that Logic would recognize the presence of a Mighty Mouse and allow assigning the remaining button presses to other features in Logic, like showing the floating toolbox while the right-click handles the contextual menus.

  • What is the Best UK Hotspot Provider for using with the ipod Touch ?

    Just ordered my new ipod touch and can't wait to start using it. I just wondered whether anybody here in the UK had done any research regarding what Hotspot Provider to sign up with? I know there is the BT Openzone option or possibly a new company called 'The Cloud' that looks OK ... then there is the 'pay as you go' option or monthly contract choice to make? I know my ultimate choice might depend on what usuage I want or where I am most likely to want wifi? But any comments, observations or user experiences would be welcome.
    Thanks.
    Jon.

    The Cloud have an account specifically for iPod Touch users. I haven't set anything up on mine as I use my mobile for surfing when out and about - but I do check to see if there's free wi fi available before I use the mobile.

  • What are the best imovie, mpeg4 settings for making dvds?

    What are the best imovie, mpeg4 settings for making dvds?

    • iMovie'08 to 11
    - Share to Media Browser - AND as Large (or Medium) - HD or other resolutions degrades the final result
    iMovie'08 to 11 are not the tools of choise if quality is important as they all degrade the picture by discarding every second line when going from, Event's to Project's and this can not be mended.
    iMovie HD6 and FinalCut delivers 100% of what any DVD-Authoring program needs.
    • DVD is as standard MAX - intrelaced SD-Video - and can not be any better than this
    • iDVD does only care about TIME / Duration as
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.
    • iDVD Does Region = Zero (to be played everywhere)
    • Frame rate - DVD can be in two types PAL (25fps) and NTSC (29.97fps)
    If Your material is 30fps then keep to NTSC (29.97fps), if 25fps keep to PAL.
    One can feed iDVD the other frame rate - BUT RESULTING DVD WILL BE BAD
    I use JES_Deinterlacer (free on Internet) to convert all material to the same and final frame rate
    • NTSC - US etc
    • PAL - EU etc

  • What are the best dimensions to allow for iPad 3 Retina for full-page landscape images?

    What are the best dimensions to allow for iPad 3 Retina for full-page landscape images?
    I read an article and cannot find it that said something about trying to make it 2million pixels and JPG to keep it small, but what exactly should the dimensions be that I ultimately import?  Is there some kind of a "density" setting I have to use, as well, when exporting from Photoshop, for example?

    See Optimizing performance in your iBooks Author books
    Density is discussed by Apple in this context as 'dpi'...
    132 - iPad 2
    264 - new iPad
    At the top of this forum there are popular links listed on the right, including image sizing etc. Be sure to study those existing/previous threads on this topic.

  • What is the best anti virus software to use with OS X 10.8?

    What is the best anti virus software to use with OS X 10.8?  Norton is slowing my iMac down and I'm constantly being bombarded by blocking messages for programs I don't recognize.
    Thanks

    Get rid of Norton a/k/a Symantec. It is one of the worst pieces of trash you can install on a Mac.
    You do not need any additional anti-virus software than is already designed into OS X to protect your Mac against malware. I assume you paid enough for your iMac and that's part of what you paid.
    If you use Windows, or are concerned about harboring viruses that target Windows, or care about friends who use Windows, then get ClamXav. It's in the App Store and it is free.
    Since friends don't let friends use Windows, I have no use for it.

    There is Handbrake (http://handbrake.fr) - aren't the videos compatible with iTunes on your computer, if they are then you can always do Advanced > Create iPad Version if they don't currently sync to the iPad. There are also a number of third-party iPad apps that support other video formats
