    Flash MX under Panther - fonts look funny

    See, I never had this problem when I was running Jaguar though.. It only started after I upgraded to Panther. And only on selected fonts, too. They look imperfect in Flash, but most of the time a SWF file would exoprt just fine, without any imperfections, unless Bank Gothic font was made...

    Panther mail issue

    By clicking 'date received' twice, to make the small arrow (on the right end of 'date received' bar) point upwards, right? See, I did that, and the focus stayed exactly the way I selected it. Restarted the application, still everything is the way I set it up.

    Flash MX under Panther - fonts look funny

    I just discovered that some of the fonts I originally used in Flash MX under Jaguar now look strange after I upgraded to Panther (i.e. Bank Gothic and Copperplate). Now I can see simple geometric shapes within the text block, some overlap text, some replace certain characters.. Even though...

    Panther mail issue

    Clicking on "date received" to highlight it to sort by date does not work? (make sure the arrow is pointing down to have the most recent date on top) Works for me... It will stay this way if you select "date received", you can do it for every folder.

    Panther mail application

    I know. As I was upgrading to Panther, it looked like the biggest chunk of the installation time was devoted to a huge list of languages. It's not crucial, but would be nice to have a better degree of control as to waht languages and text encodings one would like to install..

    Panther mail application

    Heh... Not entirely accurate. Over a dozen various computer text encodings are used in Europe (at least the most common ones that I know of). Anyway, I found it: in Panther one has to activate languages under "international" to make appropriate encodings available in various apps. Most of...

    Panther mail application

    Hi! Is there a way to add more languages under "Message" -> "Text Encodings" in mail application under Panther OS? In Jaguar it had the whole bunch of languages to choose from, and now all they have left (besides Western) are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean... Excellent move, Apple decided not to...

    DVDs: what software converts PAL to NTSC?

    That it does. Although the primary focus of this project was trying to enhance my skills in digital video archiving rather than avoid having people over ;) Well folks, what can I tell you, transferring PAL to NTSC is a big hassle indeed. I think I'll pass on this one. Hey Sam, to your...

    DVDs: what software converts PAL to NTSC?

    No man, I have a built-in converter on my player, it plays PAL discs fine. A friend of mine bought a PAL disc, but his player here doesn't play PAL DVDs, so he asked me to see if it could be converted. So iMovie would do it, eh? Do I just drop ripped VIDEO_TS folder somewhere and let it...

    How can I monitor my current RAM usage?

    This is great, thanks guys. What's "MemRegions" (displayed in the Terminal)? If "memory regions", what's a "resident memory region"?

    How can I monitor my current RAM usage?

    Is there a utility in OS X that would allow monitoring my current RAM usage (i.e. how much RAM is each running app using, and also check if RAM has been cleared after this particullar app quit)? I tried the CPU Monitor, but can't find where (if at all) does it addresss the RAM issue...

    Why does DVD2oneX 1.1.1 offer 'variable' ratio?

    Why does DVD2oneX 1.1.1 offer 'variable' ratio if it's new 'constant' ratio is superior in quality? I quote from DVD2oneX 1.1.1 help file: Variable Ratio: When selecting 'Variable'š the 'old' engine is used for processing the movie. This will result in a movie quality know from recent...

    DVD Burning Tips

    Hey dktrickey - After testing my DVD-Rs on seven additional Macs and PCs yesterday, I discovered that all of my DVD-Rs actually work in DVD-drives on both Macs and PCs. As it turned out, the ONLY type of Mac drive that does not play them (that originally led me to beleive that all other...

    why wouldn't my DVD-Rs play on other computers?

    My drive is Pioneer CD-RW/DVD-R (on a G4 running OS 10.2.6) The other two Macs I used to test my DVD-Rs turned out to have the exact same drive: Matshita (lovely name) CD-ROM/DVD-RAM (also G4, running 10.2.6) It didn't work on that type of drive, although the original DVDs did...

    why wouldn't my DVD-Rs play on other computers?

    DeltaMac - I tried it on a PC, and it worked. Therefore, it is only Mac DVD player that would not recognize any of my DVD-Rs on any Macintosh - other than the one I used to burn the disc.. Could it be some additional "anti-copy sensor" type of script that apple put in to please the...

    why wouldn't my DVD-Rs play on other computers?

    I tried two other Macs. They played the original DVDs, but not the copies.. Will try a PC later today, can't get to one right now. Tested my DVD-Rs on three different DVD players. All played beautifully.

    why wouldn't my DVD-Rs play on other computers?

    I'm backing up some of my DVDs. The DVD-Rs I make play fine in DVD players and my own Mac, but do not play in any other computers. They all get ejected. What am I doing wrong here? First, I use DVDBackup 1.3 to rip the disc. Then use DVD2oneX 1.1.1 to extract the movie track (in the event of...
