does anyone know if there is such a device out there,
an alarm that goes on after X amount seconds of silence?

i'm wondering as sometimes during broadcast there can be something wrong with the sound on commercials, but it can be tricky to catch that error when there are 80+ random commercials playing.

anyone have any ideas? ]]> General Discussion erikals http://vbulletin.newtek.com/showthread.php?t=103978 http://vbulletin.newtek.com/showthread.php?t=103977&goto=newpost Sat, 21 Nov 2009 16:16:01 GMT As some of you may know my stepfather is seriously ill , so my mother moved to a smaller house that was all on one level . . . any way cut a long story short , I was diggin around the loft when i found this . . .

Me and the girlfriend are going to buy eachother a bunch of board games from coolstuffinc:) We of course know what we order, but we'll get mom or someone to check that everything arrives in one piece and then to pack them up for us. Hehe. that way, there will be some surprise and unpacking fun!

I'm thinking I could throw in some games in the order for some of my friends too. But there are still lots of people left.

The rendered uncompressed front-projected avi of the 100% luminous 0% diffused card keeps looking lighter than the original footage avi.

There is a gloriously wonderful workaround, isn't there?

I shot a 3D movie of a 75th anniversary, but one of the cameras had to be 180 degrees upside down, and now they'd like me to do the rightside-upping.

In 7.5, there seemed to be a gain added when one used the background feature; is this the same thing? The fix for that was to substitute a card for the background, but I thought the front projection was still an option. ]]> General Support scott tygett http://vbulletin.newtek.com/showthread.php?t=103974 http://vbulletin.newtek.com/showthread.php?t=103973&goto=newpost Sat, 21 Nov 2009 10:33:03 GMT Hello all,

I'm playing around with the advanced camera and rendering twisted buidlings. Problem is; I'm getting jaggies. Lightwave will only alow me to render one pass so the resolution is not that high. I changed the filter to enhanced high but still only one render pass. How can it be changed to do more than one render pass? ]]> Advanced Camera Tools sugdenstudio http://vbulletin.newtek.com/showthread.php?t=103973 http://vbulletin.newtek.com/showthread.php?t=103971&goto=newpost Sat, 21 Nov 2009 06:35:55 GMT I'll probably be crucified but think this is an interesting piece of computer History if you don't already know;

--------------------------------------------------------------------

*************************************************
Rules:

1. Every week there will be a subject for you to model along with a time limit. You should spend no longer than the allocated time, then post a render of your model. As in most challenges like this, your honesty on modelling times is essential. How you interpret the brief is up to you as long as the final model conforms to what is asked for.
2. Post a render of your model (min 800x600 pixels) in this thread with a wireframe.
3. LightWave should be used for modelling. 3rd party Plug ins are allowed.
4. You can enter as many times as you like, posting each in this thread. If you run over the time, the model can still be posted but won't be subject to the judging.
5. Time spent on texturing, setting up a scene for a render and rendering is not included in the allocated period.


**Please mention whether or not you would be happy to share the model.**

ive asked around for advice regarding what kind of hardware platform to go for, and thought it would be insane to NOT ask the other users and techies what they consider to be best.
ive been informed that the I7 has some kind of threading technology which makes it optimal for lws rendering etc, so im after some feedback and advice as to whether this is true, if theres anything better, and whether its worth trying to cram several I7's into one shell?

id love some feedback please.
