I am speaking specifically about TRON Legacy here, although I suppose this question would also apply to other movies that share a similar situation.
Here's what I did: I used MakeMKV to rip my Blu-ray of TRON Legacy to an MKV file, and then I used Handbrake to convert that MKV file into an M4V file formatted specifically for use on my iPad (1024 x whatever, etc.).
Here's the problem: TRON Legacy STARTS out as a 2.35:1 widescreen movie, but during various scenes in the movie, it SWITCHES to a 1.78:1 (16:9) widescreen format which is what was used in IMAX presentations. It switches back and forth between these two formats. But because the movie STARTS in 2.35:1, Handbrake wants to rip the entire movie in that format and so it's 2.35:1 all the way through -- the 1.78:1 scenes are being truncated at the top and bottom to fit that format. What I want to know is whether there are settings in Handbrake that will let me tell it, "Rip the movie so that it's 1024 pixels wide at all times, but vary the height as required by each particular scene."
Thanks for any help!

I have to disagree with this comment, its not the Iphone man is USA's Networks. over here in england i have had no dropped calls (not a single one) beit the Iphone 3GS, 3G or 4 not a single dropped call and i am sure the majority of Iphone users here would state this.
Clearly not otherwise the rest of the world would also be having dropped calls. We don't get any noticeable dropped calls from the i4 over here.
Living outside of the US it's funny as the dropped call thing always seems to affect American users the most yet people leap to the conclusion it is a problem with the phone. I have owned the original iPhone, 3G and iPhone 4 in the family and no issues here in the UK with dropped calls on any of the phones.
Obviously had a few dropped calls over the years but it is not that frequent. I did notice that the iPhone had worse reception in very low signal areas (all Models) compared to my Dad's old Nokia which has a small external transmitter but then again that Nokia beats every smart phone I have ever seen for reception.
Although I don't think any device with an internal antenna is going to out perform one with an external antenna but taking the rest of the world into account AT&T are definitely a factor in the dropped calls as they seem to be way more frequent in the USA on AT&T than other service providers around the world.
I agree with these. I've not had any problems with dropped calls in Northern Ireland either.

I was in school, which starts at 8:00. When we arrived there was nothing going on. 20 minutes later there were about 10 police cars on the grounds and a bunch of parents shouting "Wheres my kid!" - the school refused to tell the students anything for fear of the kids being scared. Don't worry: the constant showing of two buildings falling scared everyone anyway.

ditto - am I the only one who isn't a fan/simply does't care for GPS units?
It's a technology with a LOT of potential once it's on a handheld device, especially when coupled with mobile Google maps. For example, you could do a quick search for the nearest Starbucks, nearest movie theater, etc., and get directions to go there (maybe even with a full navigation system like cars have).
The photo integration is definitely interesting, but by no means a "killer" app. The killer app for GPS is definitely providing local information and directions. I would definitely love to have that on my iPhone. The main thing I use the web browser on my phone for is precisely to look up movie times or try to look up directions when I'm in a pinch. If the iPhone provided a GPS-enabled Google Mobile application that made it much faster to get the information I'm now getting somewhat slowly and clumsily, that would definitely be something I would pay a little extra money for...

Both cases have the stretching silicone problem. But the Neohybrid Matte has it worst. Also it does not cover the ports unless you buy the separate covers set.
How about the Neo Hybrid EX.
I just got the Neo Hybrid EX and I love it. I have the Gunmetal one and it looks great, almost looks naked. It comes with front and back films also, although I already had a set on.
I bought it from panicpot.com, they have a TON of popular cases for the iPhone 4 and they're cheaper than most places. You have to wait about 1-2 weeks for your stuff because it comes from China but it's legit. I received my case in about 1 1/2 weeks.

Yep then you are screwed
It does look though that new version of the app is more responsive then version 1. but i'm going back to 1.0 for VPN. Its more important for me to have ability to watch it when I'm outside the confines of my apartment. When are these morons going to come to an agreement and stop putting these idiotic restrictions in place

So would the 7,1 mean seventh generation?

Hi All,
I've unfortunately been issued a work PC, so I'm wondering if there is a way to take advantage of the real estate (not resolution) of my 30" ACD. The only way I think this will work is by doing the following:
1. Connecting the MiniDisplay cable from the Dual-Link DVI adapter into:
http://storeimages.apple.com/1837/as-images.apple.com/is/image/AppleInc/MB571?wid=326&hei=326&fmt=jpeg&qlt=95&op_sharpen=0&resMode=bicub&op_usm=0.5,0.5,0,0&iccEmbed=0&layer=comp
2. Mini DisplayPort Coupler (Female to Female)

3.Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter

Is this a solution or should I prepare myself for failure? Is there a better way to do this?
Thanks!

Yuck doing multi-touch gestures on a crappy plastic trackpad... The experience won't even come close to the glass MBP trackpad ;)
not exactly new. They have been doing the multi touch track pad for years now and now you think they re ripping off macs.....

Yesterday I ordered my first MAC: MBP.
So im asking myself, if there will be maybe a "cheap" update solution to Leopard.
Some1?
Since Leopard won't be out until spring you will have to pay the full price. Apple is pretty stingy about giving discounts to their OS upgrades. If you had purchased you MBP a week before Leopards release you might have receive it for free.

Yeah, that's weird. I don't suppose it's an external drive or something else attached to the Mac. My iMac makes no noise when it's off. :o

Earlier this week, a report surfaced claiming that iOS 4.3.1 would be released with 1-2 weeks, and a follow-up report had that the release might address some battery life issues reported with iOS 4.3, although that has yet to be confirmed.
Apple indeed fixed the Battery performance issue from iOS 4.3, but just because, they added a new battery performance issue in iOS 4.3.1.

However, you can't buy a Macintosh version of the 4Ti 4200.
Since nVidia doesn't create anything but the reference video cards, various companies create the actual retail and OEM versions. Apple is one of the OEMs and they really don't see any reason to put money into a weaker card. Two levels (for the PowerMacs) is enough. Perhaps, if one of the smaller Windows video card players were interested in a small market, they could be convinced to sell and support their cards.
