The new and improved bigredradish website wil be going live over this weekend. Some pages will not be available from time to time while I am doing this but please bare with me. The full site should be available by Monday!
I’ve just done a bit of searching around and it may be my RAID array causing the conflict with iTunes/Quicktime on my Vista machine. A report at Tweaktown.com suggests that playing a QuickTime file on a Vista machine with a RAID array of SATA disks may cause a problem that makes it seem as if a drive is failing. ’more…’
The relationship between iTunes and Vista is still a fragile one! After eagerly downloading iTunes version 7.2 (which now appears to be officially Vista compatible), I waited in anticipation to see whether I could finally watch a video podcast and - No! It would seem that apple still haven’t figured out how to get iTunes/Quicktime to play mp4 files from the hard disk that iTunes is installed on, so for now I guess I’ll have to carry on with the quirky process of copying all my mp4 files to external hard drive to be able to watch them. At least it seems as though I can batch process addition of artwork on to mp3s now - with a little bit of patience.
Please bear with me over the next couple of days as I am updating the look and feel of the notes section.
