Hi All, I do video production, and I'm looking for a simple program that will allow me to choose scenes from a DVD to make a compilation of sorts for uploading to youtube etc. I tried ISquint, but it doesn't seem to allow marking in and out of specific segments, just the entire thing.
I got real luck with a refurbished MBP 15" model off Amazon, it was with one of their sister companies (warehouse deals or something like that) and the price was $1959 or something like that, so around $500 off the original price. Since it wasn't amazon directly, I was al ittle nervous, but they...
Sort of off topic, but I'm now glad I purchased my MBP a month ago instead of waiting to see if they were going to include a BR drive in it for January. Since the MP's didn't come with it, nor is it an option (is it?), I find it unlikely the upcoming MBP bumps will feature it either.
Im sure this has been discussed before and I did do a search but couldn't find anything off the bat. I have a Blu Ray player, and noticed that WB discs tend to load quickly and start up with the movie after a warning or two, but Disney discs take like forever in comparison. Is this a "cache"...
I Watched most of this film in Blu Ray at a friends house in Amsterdam about 3 weeks ago and it was pretty awesome. I didn't notice any defects (but I am not ultra picky anyways) other than the image seemed to freeze every now and then for a split second, like maybe there was a fingerprint or...
I just finished up with Season 7 and it's been a long while since Ive seen the "finale" (which I didn't realize was the finale because I saw it in re runs) and was surprised that they would try to end the show this way. Were season 7's ratings pretty bad back in the day?
I'm trying to get them to use AOL so we'll see... I'd be interested in finally trying out Ichat. Hopefully the next update for Adium will offer webcam support, it's a great program but it sucks to have to use 3 or 4 different ones to chat with people for different purposes
I chat with many people on MSN and unfortunately for the Mac there's really not that much webcam support for MSN for the Mac. I tried alternative programs like Adium, but that does not allow you to use a webcam, and now I've tried Mercury, which is allowing me to send my webcam, but not view the...
Hopefully this isn't in the wrong forum, but I went to Netflix today to check the new releases for this week and the link is gone. It instead takes you to a page where you can scroll through poster artwork and see the new to dvd blu ray etc releases, but I dont know if these are the upcoming...
Does anyone know of a photo compressor for the Mac you can use to compress large amounts of photos? I am currently uploading my Istanbul pics to my myspace page, and they were all 8mp and huge files of course, and it takes forever. I obviously want to keep the originals at the orginal...
I'm a Mac guy first and foremost, but I hope they dont run these ads to the ground. They're cute at first but then it's all smug after a while. They're starting to irritate me like those disgusting Carls Jr ads (dont bother me, I'm eating)... I dont think I can eat at that place again, lol.
Another Itunes question (tried doing it myself before asking this time...). I have all my music in a folder on an external hard drive named ITunes, so I went to change the folder location to this folder in the General/Preferences tab, but the titles do not appear in the Itunes window. Is there a...
Bumping this up... I've now signed up for a Gmail account and configured it along with my Cox account in Mail. So now at work, I can respond to emails that were sent to my Cox account, and I send them on Gmails server. However when the person gets it, it shows the sender (me) as my Gmail email...
Yesterday I got a 17" MBP (1920 rez for editing purposes) and I must say I cannot tell much difference lugging it around than the 15" model. A lot of people on different forums say the 17" is too heavy and whatnot but after about a few days use and moving it around, etc, I can say I'm glad I...
What's the easiest way to delete duplicate songs in Itunes? Going through the list alphabetically (when you have 14 gigs of songs) and clearing them one by one is a little tedious. Is there an option that will allow you to bring up all duplicates at one time and allow you to delete them yourself?
Those small 2.5" enclosed HD rock. As for my original post, I think I'm going to with Christians suggestion at OWC, or possibly go for the My Book Studio edition, which is about the same size as the drive I have now but is in a red box and supposedly geared more towards Macs anyways.
If you check that link, there's a comment where he said something is in the film where Dennis Hopper claims Coppola gave him cocaine daily or something like that, I'd think that be more of a concern to Coppola than his comments about Sheen.
I just bought a My Book 1TB home edition external at Costco for $299, and it has a USB 2.0, Firewire 400 and eSata connections. Since I do video editing, I'd like a Firewire 800 connection for "future proofing" (eventually I'll move into HD work I'm sure) so I have all connections; however, the...
It's kind of funny reading some of the comments here, and then in other threads people saying they stay out of real movie theaters because of noisy teenagers texting on their phones, crying babies, the old couple giving a running commentary and whatnot. Seems you really can't escape that at home...
Well the reason I deleted the backup partition is because Dell actually included discs in the box for Vista and drivers and whatnot (unlike when I bought an HP a while back which included no discs). So I felt that by deleting that partition, it frees up about 10gb of space. Now I'm sure my dad...
I did the Extend volume thing, and on the Computer management menu, I have the following 111.79gb drive partitions 86mb EISA config 99.20gb system, boot, etc 10.00gb unallocated 2.50gb primary partition by right clicking on the 2.50gb partition, I can delete that one, but when I...
Wow that's crazy.... I knew that when they advertised 120gb, its not actually 120gb, but I didn't think it'd be as much as 10gb less. I'll check into the drive admin panel and Extend volume and see what I come up with.
I just got my dad a Dell Vostro 1500 laptop with Windows Vista home basic on it, with 2gb of memory and 120gb hard drive. It runs great so we'll be keeping vista on it for now. When I booted it up I noticed there was a recovery partion that was about 8 gb, so I tried to delete this, and it no...
Well its nice to see Tom Selleck on TV again... but did anyone else think that was a pretty lame wrapup to last seasons cliffhanger? I realize they only have so much time in the episode but it seems alot of the stuff was rushed especially with James Caans character.
I just returned my MBP to Amazon as the Superdrive was acting a little wonky, so I'm curious how this will work out with Leopards release being just around the corner. I hear they have a great return policy (full refund usually with no restocking fee), and the refund will probably take a few...
