MacGroup: QuickTime question [bcc][faked-from]

[R.D.Preston]

**WARNING**
  DANGER!  DANGER, WILL ROBINSON!:-)

Well, I'm in rather unfamiliar territory with Unix; but since no one
  else has responded to the question yet, I'll give it a go, albeit with
  an old work-around method...

The following is from pre- osX user level testing procedures, and I
  don't know if this kind of thing will work with Unix/Sys osX, so
  please just read for consideration/discussion only.

-- navigate in the Finder on your system disk to [System > Library]
  and find the QT & Java folders.
-- copy them to a safe/protected location.
-- proceed with QT v7 install (overwrite old QT in System).
-- restart.
-- later, as the need arises, switch QT versions and restart, moving
  those component folders back and forth; restart each time.

Like I said, it worked with pre- osX; certainly, those Unix-savvy
  people here will correct this pronto if it's improper.

Regards,
Russ Preston

MacGroup: Linksys router as hub

[John Stone]

Dan,

Why not just connect an ethernet cable from wall outlet to WAN port  
and connect the 2 computers to any port other then the uplink port,  
and then they're on the network and your done... I'm not sure  
what else your trying to achieve by making the router "dumb"?

Though if you want to, you could connect the ethernet from the wall  
to the uplink(though you won't be able to use the port next to the  
"uplink" port) and then the next upstream router will assign ip  
address' to the 2 pcs in that room essentially making it a "dumb"  
router.

MacGroup: Linksys router as hub

[Dan Crutcher]

The wall outlet is really just an ethernet cable coming from another  
router on the network. The network already has a Linksys router as a  
gateway between the LAN and the Internet and that Linksys is already  
assigning IP numbers to all of the computers on the LAN. I don't want  
to confuse the LAN by having two routers competing to assign IP  
numbers. That's why I want the second Linksys to be "dumb" or "pass- 
through." Turning off DHCP function on the second router seems to  
accomplish this.

As for which port to use to connect the LAN to the second Linksys, I  
don't know enough about the difference between the WAN port and the  
other ports to know whether it makes any difference which one I use.  
Your comment about the Uplink port is interesting -- are you saying  
that attaching the network through that port automatically turns off  
that router's DHCP function and makes it "dumb"?

The actual network configuration is this:

Internet Service Provider --> Linksys router (gateway, assigns local  
IP #s) --> 24-port Netgear router (switch) --> individual computers,  
printers, etc. The Ethernet cable that I'm attaching to the 2nd  
Linksys is one of those coming out of the 24-port router.

Actually I probably will need several of these two-to-four-port  
simple routers in the future that serve only to extend the network  
and needn't provide any other services. Does anyone know of a good,  
inexpensive option to accomplish this?

The uplink port is usually just a copy of port 1 on the switch side  
wired crossover instead of straight through so you don't have to use  
a crossover cable to connect an additional switch or hub. When you  
use the crossover port it usually disables port 1 of the switch. Some  
of the newer devices are smart enough to sense which way the thing  
plugged in is wired so they don't need a crossover. (All recent Macs  
are smart like this.)

This will usually have nothing to do with DHCP functions.

MacGroup: DVD/CD label question

[LuAnn Johnson]

I read somewhere long ago that labels made on a home printer can get too 
hot in the DVD player and come loose and ruin the machine.  For that 
reason I have only made labels for shorter DVDs because I figures 15 
minutes or less wouldn't be long enough to get the label too hot.  
However, I now have some DVDs running close to 40 minutes that I want to 
give to friends, and don't want to ruin the looks of it by writing the 
labels with a marker using my sometimes nearly illegible writing.

Has anyone else heard that labels can ruin the machine?  Any other 
suggestions?

Thanks.

Luann

MacGroup: DVD/CD label question

[b3]

well, i have had problems with CD/DVD labels. they do, as you've  
said, tend to come loose, or get off balance in the player.
the solution that i went with, and it may not be for you, was to buy  
a printer that could print directly onto the disc.

i can recommend the Epson R200 as a printer that puts out pretty darn  
good photo prints, and can print directly to inkjet printable CD/DVDs.
in my opinion, the results of printed DVDs far surpass those with  
printed stickers, as it gives them a nice professional look.

the Epson R200 can be had for under a hundred buck online, and uses  
six different ink wells, so that you only need to replace one if you  
run out, not a whole color cartridge, just because you run out of cyan.

i recently bought a few packs of 50 memorex and TDK printable (16x  
speed) DVD-Rs at compUSA for under $14.00 a pack.

it's an idea, and if you are in the market for a new printer anyway,  
one to really consider.

Rick

MacGroup: DVD/CD label question

[Rex Baldazo]

I know this is not a good solution for you, but on PC's there's a new
kind of burner called "Lightscribe":

http://www.lightscribe.com/

You know how the part of your DVD that's been recorded onto has a
different color than the rest?  Lightscribe uses the same basic effect
to "burn" a label into the label side of your discs.  Requires however
both special software (currently PC-only) and special discs.  Now in
theory you can take a Lightscribe disc and burn the media side in your
Mac, then take it to a PC with a Lightscribe drive and burn the label
side on that machine.  

Tedious but you end up with a disc that has a label burned into the DVD.

There's also printers capable of thermal printing directly onto a CD/DVD
without requiring a separate paper label.  Casio has a few for example:

rinters/

Rick and Rex, thanks for your suggestions!  I had no idea these two 
options were available.   I happen to have a mac and a pc, but neither 
are attached to a photo quality printer.  If I go the printer route, I 
need one that will also scan and print, and haven't found a photo 
printer that will  print DVDs AND has a scanner/printer.  Does anyone 
know of such an animal?

FWIW, the all-in-one approach is subject to some inherent problems:

1. If one thing goes down, they are all down or off to the shop.
2. A hardware upgrade path requires purchasing either a new separate  
scanner or printer?more deskspace.
3. Older all-in-ones are less likely to be supported by the next OS...jf

MacGroup: Linksys router as hub

[John Stone]

Dan,

It won't issue dupe ips as the "gateway" router will assign an ip  
address to the router(I think your referring to as "linksysb") then  
"linksysb" assigns ips to the devices behind it.. But then that  
router "routes" the traffic where it needs to go, hence the name  
router

The wan is the "wide area network" basically goes to the net or  
whatever(even another router). The uplink is to use if you just  
want to pass thru that router, the documentation on the Linksys site  
makes it sound like it then becomes a hub. And as Lee said then you  
can't use the port next to the uplink port as they are wired  
together, so if it is a 4 port router you'll have 3 ports to connect  
to devices.

You could connect hubs off the 24 port router to get more outlets or  
another 24 port switch if your going to need even more ports in the  
future.

MacGroup: List Serve Services

[Harry Jacobson-Beyer]

I manage a list serve, through Topica.com, for a local non-profit board
of directors. Some of the members of the list serve have ISP's which do
not like to see Topica (or yahoo) email messages and bounce the emails.

Are there any list serve services out there that are not spam mills and
are likely not to be bounced by ISP's?

Thanks.

Harry

MacGroup: DVD/CD label question

[LuAnn Johnson]

I just bought an Epson R220 at Circuit City for $99.99 and got a gift 
card for $20.00.  They had several more if anyone else is interested.  
Now to get some printable DVDs and I'm in business.

Thanks everyone!

Congrats, i know that i enjoy the R200.

i regularly check

http://salescircular.com/ky.shtml

for sales going on at local stores and such.
Like i said, CompUSA had them for ~$14 for a 50 pack a week or two ago.
just check around.

also www.allmediaoutlet.com has good prices on generic, decent  
quality, ink for epsons and others. (if you don't mind using generic  
ink, and "saving" serveral bucks)

rick

also, i ***highly*** rec. Discus ( http://www.magicmouse.com/ 
h_discus_detail.html ) for designing and printing onto disc media.
well worth the money IMHO.

 Has anyone else heard that labels can ruin the machine?  Any

i will be unable to attend, because of work obligations, but again,  
i'll make the offer (i hope that it's not against list rules)

Brand new iLife '05 install disks, still sealed, that will just  
collected dust at my place. Free to good home.
I know that this is now "so last year" as they say, but it's still a  
pretty solid set of programs. I'd hate to see them go to waste.
