After over a year, I’ve finally uploaded part 3 of 3 of the PC Performance Boosting tutorial! Learn the how to stop programs from flooding your computer at startup; selectively control what happens when you hit the power button. Also, for those of you with netbooks and mobile computers, learn how disabling extra graphics capabilities can sharpen your experience. Programs that are Beneficial to Disable: – Adobe Acrobat / Adobe Reader – Adobe Updater – Everything else Adobe related – Apple Push (especially if you don’t want iTunes from coming up when you plug in a device) – iTunes – Microsoft Office – QuickTime – Updater programs Services that are Beneficial to Disable: – Bonjour (especially if you don’t want iTunes starting when you insert a device) – BitLocker Encryption – Bluetooth I’ll add more to these lists as people discover them in comments. Make sure you remember what you unchecked so you can put it back if something doesn’t go right! Programs like Catalyst Control Center and NVIDIA programs should be kept – they’re to do with graphics performance. Software Used: – Startup Delayer @ www.r2.com.au – DISCLAIMER – This video tutorial does not guarantee a 200% performance increase, but it is likely. Some computers can even triple or quadruple in speed! I do not claim responsibility for any damage or data loss to your computer. However, unlikely this may be, if you do experience problems, contact me direct on my channel, or at CJ.FixThePC@gmail.com, and your problem may …

How to disable the HTML5 player in Firefox and get your Youtube video speed back, especially on older machines playing higher resolutions or fullscreen. At the moment Youtube is testing a HTML5 video player. The background of the story also seems to be that Youtube (Google) wants to push their own WEBM videocontainer format (using VP8 codec) instead of the widely spread and well developed H264. Shame ! Basically HTML5 embedded video is not a bad idea, but the implementation of these video formats and codecs in browsers is optimized for new hardware. As a result older computers can play videos in flash player without problems, but in HTML5 they get big trouble. Issues of HTML5 implementations: 1) on my current computer (quadcore) the HTML5 player is sluggish, video gets out of sync easily. Moving the mouse over the video or any controls makes the video stop for 1 second. 2) on my old notebook (can play blurays) anything higher than 360p stutters terribly, fullscreen is impossible in any resolution (too slow). HTML5 player eats CPU power like candy. But I can watch Youtube 720p or 1080p on my old notebook in flash player without problems. 3) Youtube or the browser do not give you any means to decide which player should be used. 4) with every video the player may change ! so it gets even more difficult to understand where the problem comes from. So if you recently got speed issues in Youtube, then disabling the HTML5 player in Firefox may fix this problem. You can check …

Take your videos to the next level!!!

I would go with cropping it out. iMovie has some cropping out features for green screen. For Adobe After Effects and Final Cut, the mouse arrow is no problem if the mouse never eclipsed the object. How do you put a moving dinosaur like Jurassic Park in your videos? -I don’t think a full animated dinosaur is possible. There is a google sketup plugin called “sketchy physics.” I don’t have much experience in it, but here is one video I found: www.youtube.com The science fiction video: Search “DARK SCI FI SCENE with entrance/bridge/exit & 4podcarriers” in the “Google sketchup warehouse” My Star Wars intro: www.youtube.com iMovie tutorial series: How to Remove Black Backgrounds (aka key our black backgrounds) www.youtube.com Multiple Picture in Picture in iMovie Tutorial www.youtube.com All iMovie Green Screen problems resolved and explained www.youtube.com The Best iMovie …
