Some music from itunes would not play on the shuffle , caused it to lock up. I think this has fixed it

I hope the popping problem was fixed. Whenever I play a long AAC Bookmarkable file it will start popping and have 10+ second delays in pausing or changing volume. Very annoying.

Did the Shuffle have Sound Check before?

i have the same problem. Hope it is being fixed with the current update.

Cool! I've always missed Sound Check on my Shuffle.

yeha, i had lot's of problems with my shuffle. ( i returned it a week later ) what happened was, after i pressed play, it would only play about 4 or 5 songs and it wouldn't play an…

Up until now, I've been pretty happy maintaining two directories for my website locally (/images/ and /thumbnails/). AppleScript has made the process even easier for batch-process …

I've got a slightly different version of that scheme deployed on one site, which uses GD to resize a photo on upload and generate a thumbnail that's stored elsewhere. (It's a slowe…

I wouldn't do this if I were you, to be honest. At the absolute least I wouldn't have them generated on the fly every time; scaling images is usually very processor-intensive and s…

Fascinating. I think for my purposes I'm persuaded that the best approach is to auto-generate the thumbnails when the images are first uploaded. But would that entail triggering s…

I have a script that uses GD to pull it off. And I use multiviews to pass variables to the script. So I don't actually have an images directory, but rather images.php which handl…

A lot of content management systems use a form for uploading an image that calls the creation of thumbnails. You could also simply have an administrative page with a call to search…

I'll throw in a vote for ImageMagick (convert). its on most servers and is easy to call from php. this is especially useful if you are not the one uploading images but have say a c…

What I suppose I'm still unclear on is when does all of this occur? Does it happen every time an image is uploaded? If so, how is it triggered? Or, is it done occasionally—e.g., wh…

If your form is handled by a php script, you'd need something in that script to handle the images that are passed with the form data. The image is passed in its own $_FILES array.…

This might serve as an example -- http://minigal.dk/ This is a little php script. You upload full-size images to a folder and the script presents them as a webpage. It's really pr…

You could write a script called thumb.php. So a request for thumb.php?file=mypic.jpg will serve up mypic.jpg in thumbnail form. You can take that a step further too. You can use…
