Exacq Video Client will not export video to .exe instead does .psi and .ps

When trying to export a video from the playback tab, I had a problem. It would not save it as a self contained executable. After consulting with Exacq I have learned about 2 problems and 2 solutions.

1) Make sure the complete video is finished loading before you export it. If you do not, it will publish your exe.ps and exe.psi files instead.

.ps and .psi files are native video and sound files that can be played by the Exacq Player, which can typically be found here: C:\Program Files\exacqVision\Client\ePlayer.exe

2) If you already exported the .ps and .psi files you can combine them in 2 ways: DOS and the aforementioned Exacq Player.

In the player, open the .ps file and then save it as an exe via the file menu on top.

In DOS follow these instructions from Exacq:

1. Determine the directory in which the PS file to be converted is located, and open a DOS command
window in that directory. Typically, the directory path is \My Documents\exacqVision Files.
2. Assuming the exacqVision software was installed in its default directory, and the PS file to be
converted is named test.PS (a generic name for this example), type the following command.
Please be careful to observe the quotation marks and capitalization: C:\Program
Files\exacqVision\Client\ePlayer.exe" -c -itest.ps -otest.exe
3. The resulting file is called text.EXE and can be played on any Windows computer without
exacqVision software. Please note that if you intend to e-mail this file to a third party, many e-mail
systems do not permit EXE files to be sent or received.

How To Access The GUI on my Cox Motorola Modem

To access your surfboard cable modem open your web browser and use the IP address of 192.168.100.1. If your router has the same IP address you will have to change your LAN scope to something different such as 192.168.1.1. Once that is done, you should be able to type 100.1 into your browser and it will bring up the Motorola Surfboard modem GUI.

More information on the Motorola Surfboard GUI can be found here: http://www.voipmechanic.com/motorola-surfboard-modem.htm

"Bluetooth Not Available" on MacBook Pro Retina w/ Mac OS X Mountain Lion

Today I started my MacBook and my Apple Mouse did not work. When I clicked on the Bluetooth Icon it produced the following message: "Bluetooth Not Available" (MacBook Pro Retina w/ Mac OS X Mountain Lion).

I read that resetting the system management controller (SMC) might work - and it did! For my Intel-based Macbook the directions are as follows:

Note: Portable computers that have a battery you should not remove on your own include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, and MacBook (Late 2009).
Shut down the computer.

1. Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
2. On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
3. Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
4. Press the power button to turn on the computer.

Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

Canon EOS T2i / 550D Error "Movie recording has been stopped automatically"

Lately my Canon T2i in Movie mode has been stopping after 3 or 4 seconds with the error  "movie recording has been stopped automatically." If I stop or start it a few more times, it usually starts working.

I have read the reformatting the SD card in the camera itself will resolve the error, and so far it has for me. It is a Sandisk card that I have been using for over a year.

Also it is important to make sure that you are using an SD Class 10 Card or better.

BBDO uses vibrating windows to transmit ads directly into your head! WTF?

That's right, you passed out on the light rail ride home across town and you wake up and cant wait to go buy a pair of new Calvin Klein boxer shorts. Why in the world would I want to do that at 2AM? Why because while your head was lying against the windows you were hearing ads courtesy of the mega ad company BBDO. Their new product transfers high-frequency vibrations to the windowpane, which a person can hear through bone conduction by simply lying their head against the glass.

"BBDO also said this technology could be used beyond advertising: e.g. music, entertainment, transport information, weather, etc. The same sound transmission technology has been used in some headphones and hearing aids."
