Apple Battery Updater

GREGJSMITH  I can now run my MacBook Pro on battery power!

This fixes the "internal wiring problem" that apple said I have that would required a $1000 out of pocket motherboard replacement. 6 months ago.

Most upgrades are only allowed within 30 days at the most. 6 months sounds pretty darn good.

GREGJSMITH  I purchased this program in 2003. Never had a problem until I had to put a new hard drive in. Now I'm getting the same registration errors as everyone else. I emailed the developer and he tells me my "Your license has been pretty clearly used by software pirates."

Whaaaaaa?

****.

GREGJSMITH  Another tool outside of iMovie and iPhoto to make use of all that digital media. It has an good start and lots of themes. I did have a few problems.

It took over my computer while using photos over a network. Not sure if it was directly access the photos or writing them locally.

I don't see a way to change the aspect ratio (4:3 vs 16:9). Also don't see a way to change the date format, looks like it defaults to european.

AQUAFADAS  Hi,

The dates problem will be addressed in a coming update to support more formats (it's quite strict currently) and take into account your system preferences. We'll add a small calendar too...

It is possible to choose the output format when exporting to Quicktime...but some compositions have been optimized for certain aspect ratios. We've been thinking about ways to export with any aspect ratio without getting any black borders... We will most probably do something about it.

Regarding the network access, I would be happy to get more info if you have. PulpMotion will make copies of your pictures is you choose a quality < original.

best regards,

Matthieu

DANIEL STAUDIGEL  With respect to GPS data... you can. All you do is make your own tag. In the comments field, just add in"[lat: 12.345] [lon:12.451]" and use [lat] and [lon] in the template. It automatically recognizes the new fields, and makes sure they make it into the final website. For those photos that do not have that data, "NA" is substituded, for Not Available.

SAM  Thanks for the inputs Greg. We're always open to feedback. We agree on the Apple UI guides...we had a mixed mode metal main window (to look like iLife) and a Aqua doc window, but our feedback was mixed to negative and we opted to go uniform metal. Still a version 1.0, so we're making improvements.

For templates, we added a forum for template ideas and are working on adding more templates. If you have any suggestions, please check out our support forum at http://www.largemouthsoftware.com

Thanks again for your input, and thanks for trying Blog.Mac!

EyeTV
May 25 2005

ANONYMOUS  EyeTV 500 connected to a 15" Powerbook.

Time Warner Cable in Brooklyn, NY.

The cable out of the wall is split, one feed to the living room and one to the office. The office feed is split once again, one feed to the cable modem and the other to the eyetv (connected to the ant OUT)

I installed following the directions. I ran the auto-tune (QAM) with exhaustive scan. I ended up with 90 plus channels, most of which display "No Signal or Encrypted" Of the twenty or so that I receive, some are HD (wide aspect ratio and stream info correct for HD).

Since I am able to receive some HD channels via QAM, is it fair to say TimeWarner in Brooklyn NY is not encryptic these signals?

Do I need to get an amplifier?

Are two signal splits too much?

Can I split it once three ways?

Where can I get a carrier compatibility chart?

If I were to connect the eyetv to my cable box, would I still be receiving a digital stream into my mac?

Thanks for any help,

Kiko

GREGJSMITH  The concept is great. The photos could be at a higher resolution, because they looked pixelated when they got closer to the camera. I also wish you could export a limited number of full length movies instead of being limited to 3 sec, it was not possible to get an idea of the final result. It was a little difficult to figure out how to work.

GREGJSMITH  I liked the previous versions better becasue it came with a menu extra rather than an application that goes in the menu bar. Yeah yeah I know it needed a hack for it to work but I liked to move the menus around on my menu bar. The interface of the prefs needs cleaned up. "Save w/o Quit" is a poor implementation of a windows UI, not MacOS X.

Even with those complaints I love to have it in my Menu bar.
