Why would anyone use gstreamer legacy? and Firefox x264 HTML5 support

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Gstreamer
The wiki says gstreamer legacy is... "Legacy but widely used". On top of that every single linux tutorial on gstreamer I've seen talks about gstreamer0.10 i.e. the legacy one. Including the arch wiki page on Firefox H264 https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fi … 4_playback Can I rely on the following setup?
gst-libav 1.2.3-1
gst-plugins-bad 1.2.3-2
gst-plugins-base 1.2.3-1
gst-plugins-base-libs 1.2.3-1
gst-plugins-good 1.2.3-2
gst-plugins-ugly 1.2.3-2
gst-vaapi 0.5.8-1
gstreamer 1.2.3-1
What is the required set to enable Firefox H264 support? Should I uninstall all *0.10* packages if I use the current version of gstreamer?

So, should I remove all 1.0 packages if I plan on enabling HTML5 video for Firefox using 0.10?
When I tried to leave only gstreamer 0.10 components I got an error:
pacman -R gst-libav gst-plugins-bad gst-plugins-base gst-plugins-base-libs gst-plugins-good gst-plugins-ugly gst-vaapi gstreamer

Why would anyone use Authentication Header in a transform set ?

I came across a configuration that uses an IPSEC transform-set of ah-sha-hmac esp-3des. This is a Cisco router, and it is running inside an MPLS tunnel. Since ESP does all of what AH does, are there any good reasons to use AH?

Most cases I've seen for IPSec on MPLS are due to being prudent about trusting the service provider. Others want to deploy technologies like DMVPN over MPLS to maintain discreet internal routing between sites without having to get the service provider involved for changes in how traffic flows.
In the first case, it's usually GET VPN that is used to provide a blanket encryption policy over the entire MPLS VRF. In the second, encryption sometimes isn't used at all.
When it comes to running this sort of thing, the decision isn't usually made due to technical factors. It's more about policy.

Why would anyone want to use ASM Clustered File system?

DB Version: 11gR2
OS : Solaris, AIX, HP-UX
I've read about the new feature ACFS.
http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/11g/ACFS_11gR2.php
But why would anyone want to store database binaries in a separate Filesystem created by Oracle?

Hi Vitamind,
how do these binaries interact with the CPU when they want something to be done?
ACFS should work with Local OS (Solaris) to communicate with the CPU . Isn't this kind of double work?ACFS dont work with .... but provide filesystem to Local S.O
There may be extra work, but that's because there are more resources that a common filesystem.
Oracle ACFS executes on operating system platforms as a native file system technology supporting native operating system file system application programming interfaces (APIs).
ACFS is a general purpose POSIX compliant cluster file system. Being POSIX compliant, all operating system utilities we use with ext3 and other file systems can also be used with Oracle ACFS given it belongs to the same family of related standards.
ACFS Driver Model
An Oracle ACFS file system is installed as a dynamically loadable vendor operating system (OS) file system driver and tool set that is developed for each supported operating system platform. The driver is implemented as a Virtual File System (VFS) and processes all file and directory operations directed to a specific file system.
It makes sense you use the ACFS if you use some of the features below:
• Oracle RAC / RAC ONE NODE
• Oracle ACFS Snapshots
• Oracle ASM Dynamic Volume Manager
• Cluster Filesystem for regular files
ACFS Use Cases
• Shared Oracle DB home
• Other “file system” data
• External tables, data loads, data extracts
• BFILES and other data customer chooses not to store in db
• Log files (consolidates access)
• Test environments
• Copy back a previous snapshot after testing
• Backups
• Snapshot file system for point-intime backups
• General purpose local or cluster file system
• Leverage ASM manageability
Note : Oracle ACFS file systems cannot be used for an Oracle base directory or an Oracle grid infrastructure home that contains the software for Oracle Clusterware, Oracle ASM, Oracle ACFS, and Oracle ADVM components.

HT4221 I really want my Apple TV, iPad and iPhone to sort them in date taken like in iPhoto on my iMac. How do I do that? Sorting on date modified seems so stupid to me, why would anyone need this? Date taken gives a timeline in your event.

The unix commands you need are:
GetFileInfo
SetFileInfo
and maybe find
for cryptic details use the man command
Macintosh-HD -> Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal
man SetFileInfo
You may use the SetFileInfo command to set the file type & the program which will open the file.
# This little gem will do a get info on all files in a directory.
mac $ ls | xargs -I {} GetFileInfo "{}"

Actually I have found a way for at least the instrument plug ins to be accessed.
I was able to set up an instance of Sculpture in MS2 and record it in LE using Soundflower.
Route the audio from MainStage to Logic and record onto an audio track in Logic as follows:
If not already installed, get SoundFlower. After installing it.
A) Setup the sound you want in MS2 and audio output to Soundflower (remember to Apply Changes or it does not hold).
B) In Logic Express set the audio input to Soundflower and create a new audio track for recording. Important: set Soundflower's audio output to however you listen to your audio or you won't hear anything.
C) Press RECORD and start playing, LE captures Mainstage's sound.
I have not tried to wire LE's output to MS2 to take advantage of Space Designer. but since this functions, I'm not sure why that couldn't work as well. It is still flipping though a few screens though...might just be easier to get Logic Pro from the App store....

After I installed the recent Apple security patch, I can no longer save PDFs when using Safari. And Firefox no longer can open website PDFs. Any suggestions?

If the previous Safari suggestion doesn't work try the following:
In Finder, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and move AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin to the Disabled Plug-ins Folder. Restart Safari. If this works you may just want to delete that FUBAR plug-in.
Thanks. This was the solution for me.

My firefox updated this morning. Since the update I can no longer post to facebook. Any thoughts? Other browsers work. I am using Windows 7 and Firefox 10.0.1

My firefox updated this morning. Since the update I can no longer post to facebook. Any thoughts? Other browsers work. I am using Windows 7 and Firefox 10.0.1. All was working fine yesterday.

BTW, I can read everything just fine, but when enter information to post and press the post button, nothing happens. I have another computer running Win XP and firefox 8.x and all is fine.

Hi, why do we use the break and continue structure?

Hi, I was wondering why do we use the break and continue structure in some program such as:
for ( int i = 1; i <= 10; i++ ) {
if ( i == 5 )
break;
So, now why do we use those codes, instead of achiving the same results by not using the if structure.
I am new in java so I can be totaly wrong that is why my question come to you guys.
I will appriciate if you let me understand more.

I may not completely understand your question, but - imagine the following scenario:
// Looking for some value in a long, unsorted list
Object target = null;
int index = -1;
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    Object curObject = list.get(i);
    if (curObject.equals(source)) {
        target = source;
        index = i;
if (target != null){
    System.out.println("Found it at " + index);
}You will always run through the entire long list, even if the thing you are looking for is the first thing in the list. By inserting a break statement as:
// Looking for some value in a long, unsorted list
Object target = null;
int index = -1;
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    Object curObject = list.get(i);
    if (curObject.equals(source)) {
        target = source;
        index = i;
        break;
if (target != null){
    System.out.println("Found it at " + index);
}You can skip whatever's left in the list.
As for continue, yes, I suppose you could use a big if, but that can get burdensome - you end up with code like:
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    Object curObject = list.get(i);
    // you want to do the rest only if some condition holds
    if (someCondition) {
        // do some stuff -
        // And you end up with lots of code
        // all in this if statement thing
        // which is ok, I suppose
        // but harder to read, in my opinion, than the
        // alternative
}instead of
for (int i = 0; i < list.size(); i++) {
    Object curObject = list.get(i);
    // you want to do the rest only if some condition holds
    if (!someCondition) {
        continue;
    // do some stuff -
    // And you end up with lots of code
    // all outside of any if statement thing
    // which is easier to read, in my opinion, than the
    // alternative
}Hope that helped

Using Windows XP and Firefox 3.6.15 web pages print with some of the script as unintelligible weird looking script or maybe some kind of computer script. This doe not accure usingg IE 8.0 with the same printer.

Using Windows XP and Firefox 3.6.15 web pages print with some of the script as unintelligible weird looking script or maybe some kind of computer script. This problem also occurs with the web page on which this question is submitted. This doe not occur using IE 8.0 with the same printer.

These have nothing to do with Firefox.
C:\ProgramData\FLEXnet\Connect
\11\ISUSPM.exe
and
C:\Users\Vinegarhill-User Acc\Desktop\Malware Removal Programs\eXplorer.exe
This one - C:\Users\Vinegarhill-User Acc\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ak4dv58c.default\extensions\ \components\afom.exe - is probably the '''AFOM - Memory Recovery & Retention For Firefox Only''' extension.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/11922/
My advice is to uninstall that extension. IMO, you have too many extensions installed, and are asking for problems with Firefox. I am not against using a lot of extensions in Firefox ''(I typically have 45 to 50 extensions installed, but the mix of extensions you have scares me as potentially problematic.)''

Has anyone using a PowerMac and Tiger got a Phaser 8570?

Has anyone using a PowerMac and Tiger got a Phaser 8570?
There are drivers for IntelMac 10.5 and 10.6, but nothing for PowerMacs.
I was thinking of upgrading from our 8550 - if there's a driver that will do - anyone able to help?

Additional information.
Had some problems with the 8550 and decided to take up a Xerox trade-in offer.
The ColorQube 8570 not only works perfectly with Tiger, it's a lot faster and quieter than the 8550.
Which answers the question.

Anyone using Login Pro and PowerCore Firewire

I have a G5 dual 2 gig with 4 gigs or RAM, 2 x 160 LaCie HD, RME Firewire 800 and PowerCore Firewire. I have been having issues with PowerCore losing connection, plug-ins load and are disabled, and total system lockups.
For testing, I removed all audio IO drives and used internal audio, remove all midi drives and I am still having the same issues. Anyone using Login Pro and ProwerCore Firewire successfully?

I am on the same machine as you. Most of my problems (similar to what you report) have been due to the driver/software of the Powercore. Luckily for you, TC doesn't have phone support, so you can be spared the immediate relief you don't want and wait the 48 hours for a general email response that says you get to wait another 48 hours until someone gets back to you.
That said, Powercore FW works fine for me. It sounds like you are using a lot of FW devices, which might also contribute to your problem. I've found that you can actually overtax the FW ports on G5's to the point where they stop working properly, causing random connection loss.
Does the powercore connect through any other device?
Trying unplugging your LaCie's and see if that helps.

Internet Explorer and FireFox do not support Go To A Page View links

Internet Explorer and FireFox do not support Go To A Page View links between PDFs created with Acrobat 8 Professional. Safari does support the links. Similar problem on both PC and Mac.
Two possible errors occur: (1) the error message “page not found”; or (2) nothing at all happens – the reader does not leave the page.
Do you have any suggestions?

Check the target field in the Firefox desktop shortcut and make sure that you do not start Firefox with the -no-remote switch or have set the environment variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 (Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment variables).
Always make sure to start at least the default profile without the -no-remote command line switch.
If you need to have more than one profile open at the same time then start subsequent instances with the -no-remote command line switch.
You can not send links from other programs to a Firefox instance that is started with the -no-remote switch.
In such a case you need to drag links in a Firefox window or paste the link in the location bar.

Why are all my keyboard shortcuts using the "Alt" key instead of the "Ctrl" key? I'm using Windows 7 and Firefox 5.0.1.

I recently downloaded Firefox 5 and noticed that all my keyboard shortcuts default to using "Alt" key instead of the "Ctrl" key (so, for example, opening a new tab is Alt + T instead of Ctrl + T).
I noticed that this is even true for copying and pasting within Firefox (Alt + C and Alt + P are the only commands that work).
Any idea why this is happening? I am running Windows 7 and Firefox 5.0.1.

Thanks, eveostay! That worked. (And for the record, what a crazy user agent string...)
