I haven’t done any Android development for a couple of years. I just updated to the latest ADT, version 22.6, and seems I’m run into an issue where I can’t create a new AVD. Exactly the same as this problem here. So now downloading an older version of ADT and I’ll try again.
Working split in FLDIGI
Most things are easy to work out in FLDIGI, but I just tried working a station that was working RTTY split, listening 1 up. You can certainly do this via settings on your radio but FLDIGI allows you to set different rx and tx freqs too – which is easier as it’s just point and click:
- select the tx freq and press the ‘Lck’ button – this fixes the tx
- clicking anywhere on the waterfall after you’ve pressed Lck now sets the receive
Don’t forget to unclick Lck when you’re done.
I got this from the manual here (funnily enough).
April 8th: End of Windows XP Support and Windows Updates
It’s finally here… April 8th, the end of Windows Updates for Windows XP. Has it really lasted this long? Incredible really.
Final Cut Express 4 notes
I rarely use Final Cut Express, usually iMovie does everything I need. Whenever I come back to FCE though, I always forget how to do some of the simplest tasks. A few reminders for myself:
- To add a transition between clips you need in and out points set first to define where the transition should start/end (on both of the clips between which you are adding the transition)
- Double-click a clip in the timeline to load it into the viewer to edit it’s properties
- Overlay videos by dragging each clip to a track in the timeline. You can resize, move and clip each overlaid video in the ‘Motion’ properties tab in the viewer
- To use the Chroma Key effect to overlay a video, drag the Chroma settings tab out of the viewer, then use the ‘dropper’ to select the background color in the video clip
