"Plays nicely with the MAC" doesn't give a lot of information about what you're planning to use to edit on the Mac.

In general, however, most cameras shoot video that is made for playback, not editing. So, if you're planning to use FCP to edit, FCP can import many different formats and convert them to formats made for editing. In addition, there are free and not-free programs that can assist in converting your camera format to an editing format.

If you can provide more information about your needs, you'll probably get more informative responses.

Good luck.

I need to shoot some video (instructional and informative) that I will do voice overs on for clarity and proper content.

Nothing crazy on the editing, just streamlining the video and maybe taking proper cuts from another video and pulling it in.

What a sweet deal! I would love to buy a second one as a backup simply because it's such a great price, but I don't want to be greedy. I don't imagine these will last too long.

:)

I'm sorry about that. It is fixed now.

Hi guys,

I'm working on a Space Invaders testcase.
You know those barriers right? Where you can hide behind and shoot a hole through? That's what I want to achieve.

Is it possible to do a collisiondetection pixelwise? And make a series of pixels of that sprite transparent after collision?

I'm using Cocos2d by the way.

Cheers

I think I'll have to go with a custom MutableTexture2d for fast getting and setting of pixels:

My idea is:
- First do a pixel perfect collision detection using the pixelAt function
- If there's a collision do a 'sprite merge' with one sprite being an impact-radius sprite and of course the barrier sprite using setPixelAt.

Hope that's going to work out (performance).

Any other thoughts on the subject are very welcome.

Cheers

Hi,

anyone coming down? Who wants to meet up at 7am (or earlier?).

I shall bring cookies for everyone, mcdonalds for myself and some water (trying not to drink to much :D)

Apple will probably keep the same pricing scheme. But no one knows for sure.

I'd say the $1999 model with the i7 3.4GHz upgrade is enough. Purchase RAM from a third party like OWC (http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iMac/2011/DDR3_21.5_27), $50 for 2x2GB, $100 for 2x4GB. You could do the latter and end up with 12GB in your system and that should be plenty. I don't think you'll in anyway need 2GB of VRAM.

(I'm assuming Pro Tools has no problem with hyper-threading in the i7)

I'll have to check into Pro Tools, including whether I can transfer my Windows license to Mac, which I doubt - so I may end up going with Logic.

Excellent suggestion on the RAM - that must mean it has 4 slots, need to install in pairs and I don't waste what ships with the machine? And the i7 sounds like a good choice too.

Thanks for the advice!

Fox News is pathetic, glad to hear viewership is down.

Get O'Reilly and all the poison tongue's like him off the air.

Hey guys. I currently have the 2009 iMac. Since last 2months ago i needed to run a program 24/7 for a big project. i checked istate today and it said that the uptime was 40 days :eek:

This is AWESOME!! I can safely say you cannot achieve this with a windows machine:D

so tell me guys...what's your uptime XD

My brother-in-law pre-ordered online for he and his sister. We are going to the store around 4pm Friday (after work, travel, etc..). If the phones are there, they're there. If they're not, they're not. I'm on the fence of whether or not I want to go with the 3Gs, but the two of them are dead set on it. i am more interested in checking out the new MBAs while I am there, and quizzing the staff to see if any of them have a clue about the 1.5G/s SATA issue on the MBPs :D

Hi
Update...Almost over!

...

And it's all over folks!

Thanks for looking!

It seems weird that the trial version contains advertisements. I would think the trial would be the same as the full version. Anyway, did you get it to work with FaceTime on 4.3.2? I haven't been able to get it to work since updating, and was wondering if I was alone with this problem.

I actually never actually used it while I had it installed, was a just in case thing as my gf recently bought an iPad 2 plus I'm still on 4.3.1 as I have LockInfo setup just how I want it and can't be bothered with the upgrade right now.

What are the best games for Windows right now?...

I haven't played a windows game in ages, but if it were raining my brother and me used to choose a droplet each and race them down to the cill.

Wicked good fun!

I am new to go and don't know much about it, but am interested in it.. what are good resources to check out to learn how to play? either online or at the library, and what is that game otello, or is that a seperape entity?

I am interested in buying a new multifunction printer/scanner. I've seen a couple of posts talking about printers alone, but not together. The salesman at Best Buy was trying to get me to buy a EPSON Stylus Photo RX600. Has anyone bought and/or used this before?

They just got all spanking brand new computer equipment at the school where my wife works, and the various departments were supplied with multifunction units.

Guess, what? It sure didn't take too long for them to break down and/or malfunction. They never bothered repairing them, they just exchanged them for separates.

would shipping the Mississippi be free?

zip code?

Was this purchased brand new, or from the Apple Refurb Store?

And can an iPhone work without any cell phone service or sim (basically iPod with Wi-Fi)?

Apple replaced my original with this one in Mid-april.

If hacked, the iPhone can be only an iPod.

I was gonna say you'd be a pretty sad bastard to go for a shirt only, but I'm sure if your buying something else and explain your situation, they'll oblige you.

What a spoiled sport. :p

It's a launch party for goodness sake. Do people NEED to buy something to visit and get a free shirt? It's all about the fun. I already ordered my copy of Leopard but it hasn't delivered yet so I went to the launch event to go check out Leopard in person and I'm glad I did. It was so much fun, it's was like being at a party. There were plenty and I mean plenty of shirts so I hung out for 3 hours and picked up my shirt on the way out. Will go to the next launch party whether buying or not. :D

Hurry, buy now, enjoy it now.

No reason to wait for the unknown.

Man, just go buy one. The hardware was just updated and they are terrific machines. Installing Lion will take about 30 mins in typical Apple fashion. You'll love it.

How much do you think the Lion update would cost?

What we really need is a Windows Keynote player downloadable for free off of Apple's website. ...Apple could probably throw one together in a day and iWork sales would skyrocket (not to mention the switching potential of the Windows users watching such a beautiful presentation on their piece of crap :D).

I don't think that would work, considering Keynote uses lots of Quartz technologies, which Windows of course doesn't have. iTunes and QuickTime are different of course because they don't rely on any Core/Quartz tech.

Another vote for Seagate. That's what came in my PM G5, and I added another recently with which I'm very pleased. Quiet...no problems.

Sounds cool.

I was recomended the Seagate Barracuda from the ProTools forum, cos its quite and reliable.

Do the Seagate drives come in all PowerMacs or do they just put in whatever they can get their hands on at the time?

Hey guys! So, who's lining up this coming Friday here in Toronto? I am still struggling to decide what to do: don't know if lining up in the morning at BestBuy, get my ticket and go to work, then pick up my iPad 2 after work (cannot get the entire day off), or leave after lunch and try to lineup at the Apple Store at Eaton Centre, hoping it won't be way too busy (not sure about FutureShop: I only want the 16GB WIFI White, I don't wanna just settle to whatever it is available).

What do you guys suggest? What's your strategy?

Heh, true. :D

Just not for the next few weeks, that's all.
