When logs should not go into the log directory
Sunday, August 21st, 2011
Well it seems that applications that go in to the app store for OS X cannot write log files to the log files directory. Appeal lost :(
Crazy…..

“name” is a reserved word in WordPress
Wednesday, August 31st, 2011
Just spent a few hours trying to debug a custom form in WordPress. The problem was every time the form was submitted I got a 404 error. Turns out the text input called “name” was the problem and “name” seems to be a reserved word in WordPress. Changed to something else and it all worked fine.
Wake on Lan for OS X rejected…
Thursday, August 11th, 2011
Well it seems that Wake on Lan for OS X 1.6 won’t be out for a few more days after being rejected for “2.30 Apps that do not comply with the Mac OS X File System documentation will be rejected”
Seems like writing to ‘~/Library/Logs/Depicus’ is not allowed. Crazy because that is where log files are written for applications. Well appeal is in so lets see what happens.
Slow Motion in Final Cut Pro X and Motion 5
Thursday, August 4th, 2011
They say “motion is captured in the camera” and this is especially true for slow motion.
This is a quick, dirty and unscientific look and the new Final Cut Pro X and Motion 5s retiming.
The clip is a 5 second shot that I knew would not slow down well despite being shot on a Canon 7D at 720p 60fps.
All the clips were retimed to 10%.
If you want to see what the Canon 7D at 60fps can do have a look at this vimeo.com sadly it uses a plugin in FCP which is not yet available for FCP X.
The Motion 5 frame blending settings were:
None
Blending
Motion-Blur Blending
Optical Flow
