Wiimote IR data rate problem

On the following link, Joe got wiimote ir data acquisition drop from 100 hz down to around 20 hz in few minutes. I am running into same problem. Does anyone know why?
 Thank you in advance.

quoted Joe's here:
Hi,
I've been capturing IR data from
multiple wiimotes using Wiimotelib 1.7 (as a .NET assembly) and have
been getting progressively slower reads from the Wiimote.  This happens
using both a polling- and event-based approach.  The rates can be
sustained at ~100Hz for a few minutes but will drop as far as 10-20Hz.
This is on LabView 8.5.  I've tried 2 different bluetooth adapters and
2 different bluetooth stacks, so I doubt that is the issue. Has anyone
seen this behavior or offer suggestions?  I've attached a polling
example.  Thanks.

Hello,
I would try running this community example:  http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-1353 . If you notice the same behavior with the ir data acquisition rate, please post a comment on the example page. You should have an NI employee getting back to you on it.

  • MP3 data rate problem - and solution

    One of the things on my "To Do" list for this vacation was to rip every one of our CDs and put them onto MP3 CDs for the cars. I hate having those CD towers next to the entertainment center. It seems so, well, old fashioned. You know?
    So, I wisely ripped them to the relatively high quality 320Kb/s. Wisely? Uh oh. Apparently not.
    It seems that the MP3 player in the car can't handle that high a bit rate (they skip) and I was going to have to rip them again. What? No! Not at all. I have been saved. I downloaded a free file converter called Switch from NCH Software.
    What a life saver. It allowed me to convert thousands of songs at one time. Not only that, it allowed me to keep the same directory structure. I had the files all well organized by what CD I wanted to write them to in a folder called Music for Cars and it allowed me to convert them into a folder named Music for Cars 128.
    I just told it the input and output upper level folder, what the data rate was that I wanted to use. and I am just sitting back while my relatively fast PC takes about 5 seconds to convert each file. This is so cool. I still have the 320Kb/s to play on my PC, but I will also have 128Kb/s to play in the car - where, let's face it - the quality isn't quite as important when you live in California since most of the time the windows are open and you are competing with the wind noise anyway. Right? Even if my 59 year old ears could hear the difference between 320 and 128. I listened and I swear I can't really tell. Perhaps at a higher volume. I suppose I need to rip White Rabbit (the greatest rock and roll song of all time) and play it at a very high volume, I might hear the difference.
    The software doesn't seem to have downloaded any additional, annoying programs, toolbars, or crud like that.
    Isn't it amazing what programs are out there for free? And they work great. I would really have hated to have to rip all of those CDs again. And converting even one folder at a time would have been time consuming. This way is just so easy.

    Jim,
    I agree with you on 100% the price/quality of downloads.  However I look at it like this:
    While it is “only” $.99, I’ve though that is a lot considering I’m not really getting anything tangible, (like no cover art, no lyrics or liner notes, and no physical medium)  But I also thought how many times I would buy an entire CD/Album for 1-2 songs on it.  Then it becomes much cheaper to just get the 1-2 songs I want, and the only ones I would have played.
    I remember the days long ago when my friends and I would ogle the cover art and try to figure out what the artist meant.  These days I think the artist has nothing to do with the cover art and it was probably choosen by the record label. 
    If I need the lyrics, I just Google it.  Once again, I don’t to have to deal with storing the paper and plastic.
    I like the fact that I don’t have physical media cluttering the house.  I prefer it in electronic form.  This is just me.
    I would not call myself a music aficionado who can hear the difference. For those who can, I admire and envy them.  I don’t have that gift.  (I have trouble tuning my daughter’s guitar, even with an electronic tuning aid)
    I realize everyone is different.  I collect/admire things others probably ask “why?”.  There is no right or wrong on tastes, and this is what makes life interesting.

  • Another PGC Data Rate Error

    Hi,
    Like a few others out there, I've been having a "PGC Data rate too high, please switch with lower data rate" problem for a few weeks now. I've been searching online for the past week and a half for a solution and have tried everything suggested, from changing the transcoding max bitrates (down to 5.0) and lowering the audio bitrate, to recompressing, and reencoding the said video file that is having problems. I removed this certain video from my project and built it without any problems which leads me to believe that this one video is the culprit. No matter what I've tried, I still get the same message although the time of error varies by a second or two. Is there any other help someone may be able to offer about the subject? Thanks.

    Leighton.
    This sounds like a somewhat esoteric way to do the conversions IMHO.
    It is possible the total combined data rates do exceed - but in EncoreDVD 2 this is a warning more than anything else.
    I got these when running HIgh Bitrate MPEG-2 CBR encoded files along with PCM audio - I ignored the warning & built the disc anyway. It worked just fine.
    Bitrates in question were 8,000 for video & 1536 for Audio.
    Within specs. The little yellow triangle triangle with an exclamation mark was clearly visible in the timeline, so I used the "Ignore warnings & build anyway" option as I knew it was "in-spec".
    Can you please let us know some details about the project:
    1 - Source of files
    2 - Bitrates encoded
    3 - Audio type
    etc.
    I wonder - and hopefully someone can confirm one way or the other - if Encore sets the limit for this warning from the setting made in preferences about the maximum bitrate?

  • ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software Problem

    I'm having a weird issue. I use a X200t tablet with Windows 7 Profession 64-bit.
    Apparently my current "ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software" is Version. 6.2.1.2900.
    Thinkvantage System Update wants me to download and install Version 6.2.1.3100.
    However, it tries and I get Error 1935 and it rolls back. Now when I start windows I get an alert about BTTray.exe not loading.
    Of course I searched this problem, but it seems to be some ancient thing (years old) and I've never had a problem before with any of the Bluetooth updates.
    I did notice that in past versions people said when they tried to uninstall the old version and install the new one, it just wiped their hard drive. I don't want to risk that so I thought I'd check here if anyone knew what was going on.
    Thanks!

  • Problem making slideshow. "Data rate to high"

    Using Encore CS3 on Win XP. Trying make dvd on a short film and some slideshows. Total c 2,5 GB. Building stops telling me: PGC "Lenas" has an error at 00:01:31:08. The data rate is too high for DVD. You must replace the file with one of a lower rate.....ref, EPGC...." All pictures in slideshow "Lenas" are the same size, 2-2,5 MB, nothing special with the picture at 00:01:31:08. What does the info say?
    Preview with no problems.
    Regards Gunnar Löwenhielm

    What are the pixel x pixel dimensions of those still images?
    What is your Encore Project setting?

  • Dual data rate stream problem

    I am streaming a live source that is being encoded at 2 different data rates. One is a 360Kbps stream, the other is a 28Kbps stream (for dial up users). I have created a reference movie that contains URLs for each of these streams. The high speed one is characterized as requiring 384Kbps DSL/Cable. The second is set to 56Kbps Modem/ISDN.
    I have a Mac Mini and a PC on my desktop, both connected to my streaming server directly via the LAN. Both are running Quicktime 7.4.1. Both have their Quicktime Preference for Streaming Speed set for Automatic (The Quicktime default).
    The PC always selects the high speed stream. The Mac always selects the low speed stream. The only way to make the Mac pick the correct stream is to set the streaming speed preference manually. I have even tried rebuilding the reference movie, setting the required data rate to as low as 112Kbps, but still the Mac refuses to believe it can handle that speed and picks the other one. The bandwidth to the server is actually in the Mbps range, and the stream plays just fine when it is forced to play through manual configuration.
    Does anyone have any insight into why this is a problem? Better yet, does anybody have a way of making this work that doesn't involve having to explain to every user how to change their preferences?
    By the way, it's not just my desktop Mac that behaves this way, the same is true for systems coming in from the outside. I'm not sure that it is necessarily clear cut that Macs always fail and PCs always succeed, or what the story is with other Quicktime releases.

    How about some more information on the memory you purchasaed.  If you purchased (2) 2GB sticks of memory the motherboard only supports 1GB of memory per slot and they will not function properly.  Is the Patriot RAM single side or double side and did it work before you installed the 2GB modules??

  • Max Data Rate: AGP 2x?!

    Bought myself a new MSI-KT6 Delta a few weeks ago (MSI-6590), and have had no problems until now.
    First up, my GeForce 4 Ti 4600 decided to suddenly die. Random characters on the screen in text mode, flickery colours and corrupt pixels everywhere. Windows wouldn't detect it properly anymore.
    Bought a new Powercolor Radeon 9600 XT with VIVO today. Downloaded the new drivers, and loaded up some Battlefield, all good. Runs nice and smooth. COD, Quake 3, etc, no problems at all.
    Halo, however... BAD. Even with the basic graphics settings and no Pixel-Shading, it runs at 4 frames a second, and nothing I do changes this, from lowest to highest with Pixel-Shaders 2.0. Although there's a visual difference, it's just as slow.
    So I loaded up ATI control Panel and used SmartGart to enable 8x and Fast-Writes... Rebooted, lots of flickering screen, and Windows XP is now software-rendering everything (Transparent menus take 100% CPU to fade in)
    Wait for SmartGart to fix my graphics again, and it's all back to 4x and no fast-write.
    Loaded up SiSoft Sandra, to check the settings in there...
    Mainboard: "Max Data Rate: AGP 2x"
    AGP Card: "Data Transfer Modes Support: 1x, 2x"
    "AGP Bus is unused or AGP card not fully AGP compatible"
    Er... should this be right? BIOS wont let me select an AGP speed, it's "Auto" and I can't select it. I'm a little concerned that my Motherboard may have been damaged! I'll go get the latest Halo Patch, but it doesn't change the fact that I can't use 8x or Fast-Write.
    I'm a little apprehensive about flashing my BIOS, made more difficult by the fact that I have no working floppy drive.
    CPU: AMD 2600+
    RAM: 2x512mb DDR 333MHz Kingston
    AlphaGremlin

    Well, I updated the VIA drivers, and an updated Sandra. AGP is running at 8x, and Fast-Writes are enabled! I don't know what the hell SmartGart was going on about, but it appears to slunk away and disappeared completely from the ATI control panel since the last reinstall of drivers.
    So there's one problem solved... but I don't know what's up with Halo... I can set it to the lowest settings and it still runs like an elephant with three legs, even with the -useff option for Fixed Function shaders... ah well, that's a matter for another forum, eh?
    Interesting note: Sandra reports my 120gb drive as 605gb... should I be trusting it?

  • I have a question about Data Rates.

    Hello All.
    This is a bit of a noob question I'm sure. I don't think I really understand Data Rates and how it applies to Motion... therefore I'm not even sure what kind of questions to ask. I've been reading up online and thought I would ask some questions here. Thanks to all in advance.
    I've never really worried about Data Rates until now. I am creating an Apple Motion piece with about 15 different video clips in it. And 1/2 of them have alpha channels.
    What exactly is Data Rate? Is it the rate in which video clip data is read (in bits/second) from the Disc and placed into my screen? In Motion- is the Data Rate for video only? What if the clip has audio? If a HDD is simply a plastic disc with a dye read by "1" laser... how come my computer can pull "2" files off the disc at the same time? Is that what data transfer is all about? Is that were RAM comes into play?
    I have crunched my clips as much as I can. They are short clips (10-15seconds each). I've compressed them with the Animation codec to preserve the Alpha channel and sized them proportionally smaller (320x240). This dropped their data rate significantly. I've also taken out any audio that was associated with them.
    Is data rate what is slowing my system down?
    The data rates are all under 2MBs. Some are as low as 230Kbs. They were MUCH higher. However, my animation still plays VERY slowly.
    I'm running a 3GigRam Powerbook Pro 2.33GHz.
    I store all my media on a 1TB GRaid Firewire 800 drive. However for portability I'm using a USB 2 smartdisk external drive. I think the speed is 5200rpm.
    I'm guessing this all plays into the speed at which motion can function.
    If I total my data rate transfer I get somewhere in the vicinity of 11MBs/second. Is that what motion needs for it to play smoothly a 11MBs/second data connection? USB 2.0 is like what 480Mbs/second. So there is no way it's going to play quickly. What if I played it from my hard drive? What is the data rate of my internal HDD?
    I guess my overall question is.
    #1. Is my thinking correct on all of these topics? Do my bits, bytes and megs make sense. Is my thought process correct?
    #2. Barring getting a new machine or buying new hardware. What can I do to speed up this workflow? Working with 15 different video clips is bogging Motion down and becoming frustrating to work with. Even if only 3-4 of the clips are up at a time it bogs things down. Especially if I throw on a glow effect or something.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Data rate DOES make a difference, but I'd say your real problem has more to do with the fact that you're working on a Powerbook. Motion's real time capabilities derive from the capability of the video card. Not the processor. Some cards do better than others, but laptops are not even recommended for running Motion.
    To improve your workflow on a laptop will be limited, but there are a few things that you can try.
    Make sure that thumbnails and previews are turned off.
    Make sure that you are operating in Draft Mode.
    Lower the display resolution to half, or quarter.
    Don't expect to be getting real time playback. Treat it more like After Effects.
    Compressing your clips into smaller Animations does help because it lowers the data rate, but you're still dealing with the animation codec which is a high data rate codec. Unfortunately, it sounds necessary in your case because you're dealing with alpha channels.
    The data rate comes into play with your setup trying to play through your USB drive. USB drives are never recommended for editing or Motion work. Their throughput is not consistent enough for video work. a small FW drive would be better, though your real problem as I said is the Powerbook.
    If you must work on the powerbook, then don't expect real-time playback. Instead, build your animation, step through it, and do RAM previews to view sections in real time.
    I hope this helps.

  • Apple tv slow data rate

    HI Guys, i have a problem with one of my Apple TV. I currently have 2 Apple TV and one is having a slow data rate. I have Apple AirPort Time Capsule 2TB (latest gen) with most devices running on wireless connection and I checked the data rate (from the base station) on one Apple TV is showing 65Mbps and on another its showing between 6-13Mbps. The signal reception on both AppleTV is excellent. I have tried unplugging, restarting and restoring the AppleTV with no luck. The model number on this AppleTV is A1427. Any other ideas?

    Hi arustandi,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, one of the Apple TV's has a slow connection. I see you have already done a bit of troubleshooting. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help with the slow connection.

  • What chokes H.264 footage: data rate or video dimensions?

    I apologize for posting in here but this board is SO much better than the Quicktime or Compressor boards, and it's all the same workflow anyhow!
    What I'm wondering is what chokes H.264 videos. Is it low bit rates? High bit rates? Big dimensions? I have an 854x480 video at 500kbps and it looks great, but even on my PowerMac there is slight stuttering, and some alpha tester feedback I've gotten tells me that a lot of slower computers are choking on the video badly.
    The file size is ridiculously small, so if increasing the data rate makes it easier to decode, that would be nice.

    It's neither - or either, if you will. H.264 achieves unprecedented levels of compression, which means that it's a lot more CPU-intensive to play back in real time. It simply doesn't play well on older hardware. Even slower G5s for example have problems playing back full HD H.264, particularly if it's progressive. It also depends on your GPU - certain GPUs support H.264 decoding, thus significantly offloading the CPU.
    One general rule, though: the higher your data rate at any given frame size and frame rate, the less work the decoder needs to do. I'd try to go for approx. 800 kbps at your chosen frame size and see if that helps.

  • PGC...data rate too high

    Hallo,
    message
    nunew33, "Mpeg not valid error message" #4, 31 Jan 2006 3:29 pm describes a certain error message. The user had problems with an imported MPEG movie.
    Now I receive the same message, but the MPEG that is causing the problem is created by Encore DVD itself!?
    I am working with the german version, but here is a rough translation of the message:
    "PGC 'Weitere Bilder' has an error at 00:36:42:07.
    The data rate of this file is too high for DVD. You must replace the file with one of a lower data rate. - PGC Info: Name = Weitere Bilder, Ref = SApgc, Time = 00:36:42:07"
    My test project has two menus and a slide show with approx. 25 slides and blending as transition. The menus are ok, I verified that before.
    First I thought it was a problem with the audio I use in the slide show. Because I am still in the state of learning how to use the application, I use some test data. The audio tracks are MP3s. I learned already that it is better to convert the MP3s to WAV files with certain properties.
    I did that, but still the DVD generation was not successful.
    Then I deleted all slides from the slide show but the first. Now the generation worked!? As far as a single slide (an image file) can not have a bitrate per second, and there was no sound any more, and as far as the error message appears AFTER the slide shows are generated, while Encore DVD is importing video and audio just before the burning process, I think that the MPEG that is showing the slide show is the problem.
    But this MPEG is created by Encore DVD itself. Can Encore DVD create Data that is not compliant to the DVD specs?
    The last two days I had to find out the cause for a "general error". Eventually I found out that image names must not be too long. Now there is something else, and I still have to just waste time for finding solutions for apparent bugs in Encore DVD. Why doesn't the project check find and tell me such problems? Problem is that the errors appear at the end of the generation process, so I always have to wait for - in my case - approx. 30 minutes.
    If the project check would have told me before that there are files with file names that are too long, I wouldn't have had to search or this for two days.
    Now I get this PGC error (what is PGC by the way?), and still have no clue, cause again the project check didn't mention anything.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Christian Kirchhoff

    Hallo,
    thanks, Ruud and Jeff, for your comments.
    The images are all scans of ancient paintings. And they are all rather dark. They are not "optimized", meaning they are JPGs right now (RGB), and they are bigger then the resolution for PAL 3:4 would require. I just found out that if I choose "None" as scaling, there is no error, and the generation of the DVD is much, much faster.
    A DVD with a slide show containing two slides and a 4 second transition takes about 3 minutes to generate when the scaling is set to something other than "None". Without scaling it takes approx. 14 seconds. The resulting movies size is the same (5,35 MB).
    I wonder why the time differs so much. Obviously the images have to be scaled to the target size. But it seems that the images are not scaled only once, that those scaled versions of the source images are cached, and those cached versions are used to generate then blend effect, but for every frame the source images seem to be scaled again.
    So I presume that the scaling - unfortunately - has an effect on the resulting movie, too, and thus influences the success of the process of DVD generation.
    basic situation:
    good image > 4 secs blend > bad image => error
    variations:
    other blend times don't cause an error:
    good image > 2 secs blend > bad image => success
    good image > 8 secs blend > bad image => success
    other transitions cause an error, too:
    good image > 4 secs fade to black > bad image => error
    good image > 4 secs page turn > bad image => error
    changing the image order prevents the error:
    bad image > 4 secs blend > good image => success
    changing the format of the bad image to TIFF doesn't prevent the error.
    changing colors/brightness of the bad image: a drastic change prevents the error. I adjusted the histogram and made everything much lighter.
    Just a gamma correction with values between 1.2 and 2.0 didn't help.
    changing the image size prevents the error. I decreased the size. The resulting image was still bigger than the monitor area, thus it still had to be scaled a bit by Encore DVD, but with this smaller version the error didn't occur. The original image is approx. 2000 px x 1400 px. Decreasing the size by 50% helped. Less scaling (I tried 90%, 80%, 70% and 60%, too) didn't help.
    using a slightly blurred version (gaussian blur, 2 px, in Photoshop CS) of the bad image prevents the error.
    My guess is that the error depends on rather subtle image properties. The blur doesn't change the images average brightness, the balance of colors or the size of the image, but still the error was gone afterwards.
    The problem is that I will work with slide shows that contain more images than two. It would be too time consuming to try to generate the DVD over and over again, look at which slide an error occurs, change that slide, and then generate again. Even the testing I am doing right now already "ate" a couple of days of my working time.
    Only thing I can do is to use a two image slide show and test image couple after image couple. If n is the number of images, I will spend (n - 1) times 3 minutes (which is the average time to create a two slides slide how with a blend). But of course I will try to prepare the images and make them as big as the monitor resolution, so Encore DVD doesn't have to scale the images any more. That'll make the whole generation process much shorter.
    If I use JPGs or TIFFs, the pixel aspect ratio is not preserved when the image is imported. I scaled one of the images in Photoshop, using a modified menu file that was installed with Encore DVD, because it already has the correct size for PAL, the pixel aspect ratio and the guides for the save areas. I saved the image as TIFF and as PSD and imported both into Encore DVD. The TIFF is rendered with a 1:1 pixel aspect ratio and NOT with the D1/DV PAL aspect ration that is stored in the TIFF. Thus the image gets narrowed and isn't displayed the way I wanted it any more. Only the PSD looks correct. But I think I saw this already in another thread...
    I cannot really understand why the MPEG encoding engine would produce bit rates that are illegal and that are not accepted afterwards, when Encore DVD is putting together all the stuff. Why is the MPEG encoding engine itself not throwing an error during the encoding process? This would save the developer so much time. Instead they have to wait until the end, thinking everything went right, and find out then that there was a problem.
    Still, if sometime somebody finds out more about the whole matter I would be glad about further explanations.
    Best regards,
    Christian

  • PGC has an error--data rate of this file is too high for DVD

    Getting one of those seemingly elusive PGC errors, though mine seems to be different from many of the ones listed here. Mine is telling me that the data rate of my file is too high for DVD. Only problem is, the file it's telling me has a datarate that is too high, is a slideshow which Encore has built using imported jpg files. I got the message, tried going into the slideshow and deleting the photo at the particular spot in the timeline where it said it had the problem, now getting the same message again with a different timecode spot in the same slideshow. The pictures are fairly big, but I assumed that Encore would automatically resize them to fit an NTSC DVD timeline. Do I need to open all the pictures in Photoshop and scale them down to 720x480 before I begin with the slideshows?

    With those efforts, regarding the RAM, it would *seem* that physical memory was not the problem.
    I'd look to how Windows is managing both the RAM addresses and also its Virtual Memory. To the former, I've seen programs/Processes that lock certain memory addresses upon launch (may be in startup), and do not report this to Windows accurately. Along those lines, you might want to use Task Manager to see what Processes are running from startup on your machine. I'll bet that you've got some that are not necessary, even if IT is doing a good job with the system setup. One can use MSCONFIG to do a trial of the system, without some of these.
    I also use a little program, EndItAll2 for eliminating all non-necessary programs and Processes, when doing editing. It's freeware, has a tiny footprint and usually does a perfect job of surveying your running programs and Processes, to shut them down. You can also modify its list, incase it wants to shut down something that IS necessary. I always Exit from my AV, spyware, popup-blocker, etc., as these progams will lie to EndItAll2 and say that they ARE necessary, as part of their job. Just close 'em out in the Tasktray, then run EndItAll2. Obviously, you'll need to do this with the approval of IT, but NLE machines need all available resources.
    Now, to the Virtual Memory. It is possible that Windows is not doing a good job of managing a dynamic Page File. Usually, it does, but many find there is greater stability with a fixed size at about 1.5 to 2.5x the physical RAM. I use the upper end with great results. A static Page File also makes defragmenting the HDD a bit easier too. I also have my Page File split over two physical HDD's. Some find locating to, say D:\ works best. For whatever reason, my XP-Pro SP3 demanded that I have it on C:\, or split between C:\ and D:\. Same OS on my 3 HDD laptop was cool having it on D:\ only. Go figure.
    These are just some thoughts.
    Glad that you got part of it solved and good luck with the next part. Since this seems to affect both PrPro and En, sounds system related.
    Hunt
    PS some IT techs love to add all sorts of monitors to the computers, especially if networkded. These are not usually bad, but are usually out of the mainstream, in that most users will never have most of these. You might want to ask about any monitors. Also, are you the only person with an NLE computer under the IT department? In major business offices, this often happens. Most IT folk do not have much, if any, experience with graphics, or NLE workstations. They spend their days servicing database, word processing and spreadsheet boxes.

  • Data Rates Cycling

    I am seeing the data rates cycle from 11 mbps to 2mbps and then sometimes a very short spurt on 1mbps. I set the 350 AP custom data rates to 1 basic, 2 basic, 5.5 no and 11 no.
    I have a client on win 2k with a 350 pci card installed but I see the same behavior on my laptop lmc card. When the rate is 11 mbps the client disassociates from the AP since we are 5.5 miles away. I use my laptop for site survey work and I have trouble with getting an association when I have a clear line of site and high gain antenna attached to LMC card.
    The radio tower has 3 Cisco AP's runing off chanels 1, 6 & 11. I upgraded all 3 to 12.00T SW. I have 3 seperate line running up 240 feet to a MaxRad sectorized omni. i have 3 seperate DC powered RFLinx 250 mw amps at the top of the tower.
    All my customers except the 1 I am debugging have Linksys wet11 bridges and they are all running fine with a 1 or 2 mbps setting. The Cisco PCI client card should not try a 11 mbps connection when I have set them for auto rate selection and the AP has the custom settings for 1 or 2 mbps, am I missing something here?

    You can verify the following things:
    Verify that the PC card or PCI adapter is installed correctly.
    Verify that the configuration for the SSID on PC matches the access point's SSID.
    If your device does not allow broadcast SSID to associate, change the setting to "yes" to see if it allows it to associate.
    Temporarily disable any security features on both the access point and the client. If this solves the problem, check to make sure that the Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) key you use to transmit data is set up exactly the same on your AP and on any wireless devices with which it associates.
    Note the configurations and enter them after a reset.
    You can use the guidelines given in the following links:

  • AP PHY Data Rate Anomaly

    I did a scan using the airmagnet WiFi anaylizer and it informed me that the one of the alarms is the following AP PHY Data Rate Anomaly: APs are using data rates of 48M, 54,M which is not included in the user defined data that is allowed in the system. I checked the controller and I have both those data rates enabled?
    Thanks      

    Thomas:
    So the only problem you have is the AirMagnet alarm?
    I never worked personally with AirMagnet but you better check the settings if there are defined data rates?
    I think the message says the AP has 48 and 54 Mbps data rates enabled while the AirMagnet is not configured to allow those data rates.
    Just an idea. hope it helps.

  • Bit rate problems

    Re: Video bitrate too high

    Hi,
    I have exported two 10 minute HDV movies as mpeg2 files, using Compressor, with the default bit rate setting of 6.2/7.7 mbps. When I try to burn a DVD, I get the "bit rate too high error message". I've used the same settings for these files before, and no problem. However, after I made minor changes to these files in FCP, and then tried to export - no luck. Should I try to export reducing the bit rate in Compressor?

    A data rate of 160 or 192 is usually good, you should set Dialog Normalization to -31, preprocessing to none and dechecking Copyright Exists and Content is Original also helps prevent glitches (I had that drilled in my head awhile ago, like in DVD SP 1 time and sort of just follow it as a matter of course, pretty sure it still holds true through DVD SP 4 and Compressor 2, at least it has for me.)
