Q Jason - Sharing Wifi with sister 400 yards down the hill

• Need to get a very directional antenna
• Take a look at Radio Labs

Q Device to record to DVD and flash memory

• 2 different purposes
• Panasonic makes very good recorders
  • Not sure you will find any with flash recorders as well
• Recording onto flash would wear out the flash quickly
  • Sandisk does have a device called the V-Mate

• Instant light
• Can induce red eye
  • Reflecting light
• Don’t go that far
• Try to avoid flash as much as possible

Q Rick from Tuckerton, NJ - Error says to use admin account, but is admin

• Sounds like something an antivirus may have done that
  • Wants to change startup programs
• Simply figure out what security software is blocking you

Q Barbara - Comcast digital cable/Configuring router for security

• Cable companies making people move to digital cable
  • Need to get digital box per TV
• FCC forcing cable companies to support something called CableCard
  • Simply put the card into a computer or TV that supports it
  • Any device that supports CableCard like TiVo
• Log into your router by going to 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1
• If it’s a wireless router, turn on WPA encryption
  • That’s all that matters
• Hiding your broadcast ID or MAC address filtering
  • None of that works
• Turn off Universal Plug and Play
• Change the default name
• Turn off WAN administration

Q Mark from Salinas, CA - Can’t put laptop into hibernate

• Using Windows Vista Basic
• Not taking advantage of the ACPI
• Nothing you can do because the non-ACPI version was installed

Q Bruce from Laguna Beach, CA - Getting data off of AppleTV

• Don’t know of any way to get it off
• Can take the hard drive out and use a USB drive adapter
• That drive is a standard OSX drive
• No software available to get it off easily

Gizmodo recently published a false Apple rumor as an article on their site, but then retracted it.

Q Bill from Thousand Oaks, CA - Screen-door effect on LCD TVs

• You’re seeing individual pixels on the screen
• Can take a look at televisions using LCOS technology
  • No screen door effect
  • Sony sells them under SXRD brand
  • JVC sells them under HD-ILA brand
• LCD stands for “Liquid Crystal Display”
  • Crystals act like shutters for light

  • Using a real microphone
• Feed mixer output into recording machine
• Then have to figure out how to get your voice alone back into Skype
  • Using something called mix-minus
• Leo uses Ustream and Stickam to broadcast audio
  • Don’t have to show video of yourself

Morgan Webb - WebbAlert video blog

• Using a Canon HV20
• Using Castfire service for ads and hosting
• Simply doing the show every night and editing in Final Cut Pro

Q Tony from San Antonio, TX - Accidentally copied over user folder in Vista

• Copying it over actually deletes the original files
• Deleting and emptying recycle bin simply opens up that space
  • Won’t get deleted till something is written on that same space
  • Would have had chance to recover
• No magic formula to recover
• You’ve probably erased some, but not all
  • New folder not as large
• Make a complete copy if you can of the hard drive
• Then get an unerase program
  • Leo has used Active Unerase

ThinkGeek has a build-it-yourself videogame console. Leo wishes it were around when he was younger.
