Lightscribe Windows 7?
Okay, so I’m looking to put a cover on a cd that I burned using lightscreibe (i know cover isn’t the right word but bear with me). When I go into the start menu under all programs there is the ‘Lightscribe Direct Disk Labeling’ folder, and inside that are ‘getting started’ ‘label print’ ‘lightscribe control panel’ ‘lightscribe website’ and ‘quick demo’. The control panel doesn’t help, the website just has patterns, and the demo doesn’t explain my problem. on the ‘getting started’ thing, it says "To get started insert media label side down into the drive then click Start->All Programs->LightScribe Direct Disc Labeling->LightScribe Template Labeler" but I don’t have a ‘LightScribe Template Labeler’ option. I tried the ‘Label Print’ option, but that’s only for paper. So what is it? My computer came with Lightscribe (a.k.a. it’s lightscribe capable) and I’m assuming that I have the software since all of the stuff listed above is in my start menu. Not that the problem is with the disks, but my disks are Lightscribe cd’s from memorex (got ‘em at Office Depot). So, if someone could give me guidance as to how to proceed that would be great.
P.S. There isn’t any other Lightscribe stuff on my computer. I searched it and there’s nothing else starting with the letter ‘L’ in my all programs list.
I think it is looking for the image of what you want to put onto the disc as the label.
I know my brother had no end of problems with his LightScribe so he went back to paper labels.

Avid Xpress Pro – Making the Move to Media Composer – Media Composer Interface
Full Course Available as a CD-ROM: http://www.avid.com/mc100
When you first start Media Composer, youll notice a few differences in how the user interface is set up, which project and bin options you can configure, and what tools you can quickly access from the application window.
Starting with the Project settings, youll see that you now have some additional functionality available to you. For example, Video Input and Video Output settings provide a number of options for handling your media. The Keyboard settings display the default Media Composer keyboard configuration and allow you to customize it.
In fact, you can easily re-create the standard Avid Xpress Pro keyboard settings, if you want. With the Settings tab active, select Open Settings File from the File menu. Navigate to the XpressKeyboardSettings file, and then drag it to the Project window. Click Add, and then select the Xpress keyboard settings in the Project window.
In the Composer settings dialog box youll find several tabs. In the first of these, the Window tab, you can choose to display a second row of information above the Source/Record monitors. The second row includes the Fast menu and a duration display. And, when youre using these features, youll see the audio ganging and multi-camera buttons. You can also display a second row of buttons below the monitors, including Mode buttons (which allow you to switch between Trim, Source, Color Correction, and Effect modes).
Using the Edit tab, you can set up some useful editing behavior, such as enabling or disabling the creation of new tracks in the Timeline whenever you load clips in the Source monitor. You can also set your application to copy locators from the Source monitor to the Record monitor when you edit media.
The FF/REW tab allows you specify the behavior of the Fast Forward and Rewind buttons while you edit. You can configure the buttons to jump to the head or tail frames of a clip, to jump to the next or previous locator, or to ignore which tracks youve selected and instead jump to the next or previous edits in the sequence.
And the Multicam tab lets you set some options for your multi-camera sequences.
Opening the Tool palette reveals a couple of changes. The default Tool palette for Media Composer includes a number of buttons that dont show up in the default Avid Xpress Pro Tool palette. Some of these buttons appear in the second row of buttons in the Source/Record monitor or in the Timeline toolbars.
For example, you can find the Trim mode and Effect mode buttons, along with the Source/Record and Color Correction mode buttons, on the Timeline bottom toolbar where theyre always accessible to you.
You can, of course, add buttons and menu items to the Tool palette just as you can in Avid Xpress Pro. For more information on customizing the Tool palette, see the Media Composer Help.
Youll find a couple of useful features to the Timeline. For instance, you can set the Timeline to wrap in Media Composer. This allows you to view the Timeline for an entire sequence without scrolling. You can navigate the Timeline as it wraps in exactly the same way as before, but for longer sequences or for sequences that you want to expand for greater detail, you now can move around much more easily. You can turn this option on or off by selecting it in the Fast menu.
Youll also notice that more buttons appear on the toolbars above and below the Timeline. As mentioned before, the mode buttons have been relocated to the bottom Timeline toolbar and now include buttons for Source/Record mode (the default mode for editing) and Color Correction mode (which brings up the Color Correction tools).
Finally, the Timeline Fast menu provides far more options than in Avid Xpress Pro. You can view clip and sequence information such as which clips have locators, which have color correction applied to them, what kind of sync breaks exist, whether or not clips have dissolves or effects applied to them, and so on. These Timeline options can be turned on or off, so you can see as much or as little information as you want.

HP DV7 – 3178 Hewlett-Packard Pavillion Entertainment PC Description Review
Here is a brief description and review of the Hewlett-Packard Pavillion Laptop DV7-3178.
Quick things I forgot in the video.
1) (-) When you put button style headphone on the laptop, you can hear some faint background noises as the screen moves or the hard disc is performing an operation. When sound is present, you can’t hear the noise.
2) (+) There is a small switch to turn instantly on and off the touch pad so when you use an external mouse, if you touch the pointing device, it won’t respond.
3) (+) There are actually 4 USB ports where the forth one is shared on the eSATA port
4) (+) You are able to record what you are hearing (Stereo Mix Record) where a lot of new laptop do not have that feature anymore due to the sound card features limitation. Great feature if you want to capture audio about what is playing.
5) (+) Comes with an infrared remote control (express card style) to command the Windows Media Center and Windows Media Player.
Here are some more detail specifications :
