Stop spending so much time worrying about beating the system, and start working instead? Or find a new job?
Is it possible all of the files are simply hidden? Open the My Docs folder, hit the Alt button, and select Tools > Folder Options > select the View tab > check off Show Hidden Files or Folders > Hit OK
It's been three days and no error messages have appeared after switching the theme to basic. I'll try and remove all the drivers and start afresh and see if that helps anything.
OK, my laptop just fucked up. I restarted it and it's been ok, but here are the details: What the hell is that???
Meaningless without knowing what's in those files. You might want to read through this: <a class="postlink" href="http://support.microsoft.com/kb/903251" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://support.microsoft.com/kb/903251</a>
My internet speed has dropped dramatically of late. Downloading I used to average 1mb/sec which has now dropped to 200kb/sec. If downloading any file I am also unable to run a browser. I have no idea where to even start with the problem.
Here's the scenario: I have 2 Macs on the same local network, on the same desk, for that matter. Both have 2 monitors, and I currently control both using a single keyboard/mouse via Synergy. I want to now combine both audio outputs from both Macs into one, so I can listen to both of them through a set of headphones. In essence, I want to find some sort of network virtual streaming mixer of some sort. Free, of course. I want to be able to watch a movie/show in VLC on the first Mac, and hear the audio out of the headphone jack of the second Mac. Typically, you'd buy a small audio mixer, physically plug both outputs into the mixer, then plug your headphones into that mixer. I'm looking for a software/virtual solution. Anyone?
Not sure what ports Macs have and I'm not even sure this would work with a PC, but what about just running a cable from the headphone jack on Mac 1 into the line in jack on Mac 2? Is that feasible?
I do have all the cabling I need to do it physically, including mixers, etc., but I was hoping to find some sort of network based virtual solution. I've found something called Airfoil that does something like that, but the latency in it is about 5 seconds. It kind of does what I want, but is a bit sketchy. I have to fuck with VLC to offset the audio and video by the right amount for it to be synched by the time I hear it, which is kind of less than ideal.
I'm completely tech retarded so excuse my ignorance. My mom asked me to find out if there is a way to watch TV through the internet. Can someone give me some information on this? I know there's hulu, but she means cable TV. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Net there's a good chance you're never going to find anything that does this via network without some sort of latency. You're really better off just doing it analog, just set it and forget it and it'll work better than any network streamer.
I can't load a webpage other than TiB worth a damn right now. But I know there's something called AirPhones (I'm pretty sure) that was like AirFoil but with a built in video player that compensated for the latency automagically. I don't know if there is a client to run on another computer or just on an iPod/iPhone. Might be worth a look though. But if you're looking for a zero latency network based audio stream, I wouldn't hold my breath. They just don't exist in my previous searches for things like this.
Wasn't expecting 0 latency, but it should be possible to do it without any kind of crazy 8-second lag. I'm pretty sure it was designed with a ton of buffering involved to keep the playback from chunking, but it'd be nice if that buffering was a setting you could change. The computers are on the same 10-gigabit switched network (I have some pretty industrial/commercial gear in my home-office). I almost have mind to write my own VLC broadcast plugin for the thing... spraying real-time UDP packets shouldn't be that hard.
Is this just a home project for Lulz? Cause if it's just to amuse yourself, that sounds pretty awesome. But if this is a hassle that you're going through to solve a problem - I'm kinda confused - what's the actual problem with doing it through an analog solution? What's 'better' about a networked/virtual solution that makes it worth that much effort?
Not really a "help" post, but found this to be very interesting. The Airport Express private keys have been reverse-engineered. Basically, if you run iTunes on any box, you can now stream the output over the network to any device that can run it, like a Linux box, etc. No longer is it just for Apple licensed recipients. <a class="postlink" href="http://www.mafipulation.org/blagoblig/2011/04/08#shairport" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.mafipulation.org/blagoblig/2 ... #shairport</a> The source code provided in the link is a working Perl-based receiver that works.
I have a Dell XPS M1530 laptop with a built in webcam. The light for the webcam keeps blinking on and off, and the little "connect-disconnect" tone goes along with it. I don't know why it's doing it, but it's annoying as fuck. I've run Avast and Malwarebytes on the computer, as well as MS's malicious software removal tool, so I don't think it's anything like that. It's only happened recently, but again, it's annoying as fuck. I've googled the shit out of this, and can't find any solutions. Any ideas?
Sounds like a drive issue to me. Or, the connection to the motherboard for the camera is loose. Check Dell's website to see if there is an updated driver for it.
