Opera 10.53
OK, my Mac: G4 Quicksilver running OS X 10.4.11 Opera prompted me that an upgrade was available so I grabbed it. Now Opera won't work I sent the Error to Apple and have been looking at Opera's site trying to find the System Requirements for this version of Opera to no avail. Several other sites discussing it have also not had the system requirements listed. Will this version work on this machine? -- Steve Conrad Henrietta, MO 64036 The time has come for mankind to grow up and leave its cradle behind; to go forth and claim our place in outer space. - Capt.

Flat tire? Stuttering engine? or did it burst into flame at the end of your driveway? Did you try removing your InputManagers and Internet Plug-ins? Did you try totally removing all the support and preference files that Opera poops around? Will this version work on this machine? OS requirement notwithstanding I've been playing with Opera... First, the archive (dmg) available from Opera's main web page [*] contains version 10.53.8339, built on April 22, even tho the archive is dated April 26. This version is NOT what they tested in the final beta; it is several revs later - IOW *untested* and days old. http://www.opera.com/ Next, the archive currently available on Opera's beta page contains version 10.53.8343, built on April 28. The archive itself is dated April 29th. http://www.opera.com/browser/next/ On my Macs, version 10.52.8339 crashes and hangs often. When it does work, it's noticeably slower than Safari. Version 10.52.8343 seems better, but in an few hours testing has already crashed multiple times. I'm currently using Flash 10,1,53,21 (aka 10.1rc2), btw. No other non-standard plug-ins and no inputmanagers. [*] I feel it's necessary to take note of the name of Opera's archives - a first warning bell, as it were. The use of underscores and Setup is telling that's a windoze thing. And the rest of Opera feels, to me, like a bad port. This is DEFINITELY *NOT* a Mac OS X native application and its poor stability proves they didn't even bother to put in the effort to do basic debugging! Ok,,, my eratta from trying to use 10.52.8343 on my 300-MHz Smurf running Tiger... - First launch took 45 seconds to display the main window. Safari: 10 secs. - Said main widow is sized improperly, stuck half-way under the dock. Safari: sized properly. - It required another 30 seconds to populate the main window. - Each time I try to select, copy, or edit the url field in the address bar, I get a SPOD for a few seconds, then the edit operation fails. No matter how many times I tried to select the whole URL, I only got portions. After letting the browser sit idle for half a minute, with the cursor at the end of the URL, I was finally able to type into the field and copy newly typed text (but not the text already there!). These problems tell me that they're not using the OS' normal text handling services - yet another sign of a bad port. - When I hit tab, to move from the address to the search field, there is a delay of about 4 seconds before the cursor moves. Safari and Firefox don't have this lag at all. - Import bookmarks from Safari. Even tho I specifically selected the correct import item, it presented a dialog pointing to Documents, not to the proper place in ~/Library. Yet another sign of a bad port. Upon selecting my Bookmarks.plist, Opera gave me a SPOD. It took five minutes for the SPOD to clear. 2723 bookmarks imported. (Firefox does the import in under a minute). Looks like Opera got my whole folder structure, but what's there is now sorted alphabetically - totally destroying the logical order I'd created in Safari. - Almost two minute of SPOD when I closed the Bookmarks tab. - heh. Every tab I close results in a SPOD for about a minute or two. - oops. It crashed when I closed the last tab. - oops. It crashed when I went to view APOD. That's just pitiful. Pages don't get much simpler than APOD. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/astropix.html - oops. It crashed when I went to view the Acid3 test. - oops. It hung at 8/100 on Acid3 when I retried. - Ok. It finished Acid3, 100/100. However, the results are not pixel perfect. Safari also gets 100/100, is pixel perfect, and completes the test about 15 seconds faster. - Timing has been subjective. Let's get some real objective numbers, by running Sunspider. http://www2.webkit.org/perf/sunspider-0.9/sunspider.html Opera 10.52.8343:75753.4 ms Firefox 3.6.4:35172.0 ms (a recent nightly build) Safari 4.0.5: 33301.6 ms WebKit Nightly: 28363.6 ms (nightly build of 2 May). My conclusion: This is a pig browser backed by a company with a great PR machine (oh! it's so fast!). I wouldn't recommend this pile of padadodo to anyone. In short - don't waste your time. Use real browsers instead, like Safari and Firefox and iCab and ...

Rich's suggestion of using Cinematize looks like it would work, $$. In your OP you mention that you want to do this from a DVD rip. Ok, that's a MPEG-2 arranged in a Video_TS folder. You can use a tool such as ffmpeg to extract the section you want. Were do iI find a tool like that? Does it let me place chapters in a seperate folder to burn a DVD? ffmpeg is open source, with a lot of dependancies. IOW, a pita to build yourself. So I recommend downloading the latest Burn, and just using the version of ffmpeg it contains. I think we've covered this in other threads on LEM - pls search the archives. ffmpegX is a shareware GUI for ffmpeg that you might find useful. I'm not sure how chapters are done. If they're discrete files within the Video_TS folder, then you might be able to just grab them from Finder. My guess is that they're simply timed indexes into the data stream. If that's the case, then use ffmpeg to extract the timed segment you need.

No, but this is easy with Preview (at least in 10.5). Open all three in preview. Set it to show the sidebar, so you see all the pages. Select the pages to merge on PDF2, drag them into the sidebar on PDF1, you'll see a highlight where Preview will insert them, drag it to the appropriate point, and let go. Do the same for PDF3. Save PDF1. It's a lot easier to do than describe...You can also re-arrange pages in a PDF this way. (note PDFs will retain their orientation when you do this. You can drag landscape pages into portrait PDF's and the dragged landscape pages will remain in landscape view.)

The appropriate question is 'what Python script is running'. Python in and of itself, should not be running, unless some script is running. Click the Python instance in Activity Monitor, click inspect and see what the parent process is. If that doesn't give you a clue, open a Terminal window and run the command: sudo lsof And you will eventually get a long list of open files and the process that has them open. This way you can track the Python instance to the script that's hung up. you can do sudo lsof openfiles.txt and when it's done, open up openfiles.txt and search it. lsof stands for 'LiSt Open Files' and does exactly what it implies it lists all open files on the system and the process that has opened them.
