Hi, I've been wanting to write a program that would perform certain effects on a video, then output a modified copy. While I think I have sound ideas and am comfortable with programming, I do not know enough about video file formats and how they are played to get started and was hoping to get pointed towards some information regarding that. For example, any info on the following would help. 1.) Given a(n) wmv, mpeg, avi, etc. how would I extract an array of frames from it? 2.) If I play an a x b resolution video on a, say, 1080p screen, how does the player decide what values the extra pixels should have? 3.) More importantly, if I extracted an array of frames from an a x b res video, then added to them and increased the size to c x d res and built a video from that, would the end result be a c x d res video? For the 1st question I just need to know how frames are stored, I can figure the rest out. The 3rd sounds kind of obvious, but differences between screen resoultion and video resolution and lack of knowledge make me want to ask just to be safe. Thank you for any and all help :-) 209.252.235.206 ( talk) 06:38, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
I am writing a vba code in MS Access 2007 that creates and opens a new instance of MS Excel 2007 (have added the reference to MS Excel 12.0 already). Code for reference here:
Dim xlApp as excel.application Set xlapp = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
The problem here is that every time the code runs, it opens excel 2003 instead of excel 2007. I want it to open an instance of excel 2007 instead of exce l 2003.
Additional details: OS: Win 7 I have both MS Office 2003 and 2007 installed on my system. I have already tried 'Diagnose' in MS Excel (similar to detect & repair in MS Excel 2003 which makes it default for all excel files). Also, tried un-registering excel 2007 and then registering again but didn't help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.173.224.151 ( talk) 12:09, 13 August 2011 (UTC)

If a website lacks current information and valuable data, then should it be called backdated website or obsolete website? thanks-- 180.234.82.244 ( talk) 16:24, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
My iphone has been lost, and it could be anywhere in the city I'm currently residing in. I haven't downloaded MobileMe, iHound, or any of those things. Is there a way to locate it after it's already been lost? 70.179.55.4 ( talk) 22:22, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
So I am in the midst of installing Windows 7 using Parallels Desktop for Mac. I was curious as to whether because my computer is a mac, I do not have to worry about viruses, or whether even though it's a mac, because I will be running Windows on the parallels desktop, I am susceptible like an actual PC owner.-- 108.46.97.251 ( talk) 23:26, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
