Does your data center steal from you?

Do you have monitor+keyboard carts in your data center? I don’t. The DC doesn’t provide any. Therefore I have brought my own monitor a long time ago and placed it behind my racks. However, more often than not the monitor is gone when I visit the DC (really seldom) and I have to search all the unlit rack rows hoping to locate it and move it back. The DC doesn’t care and they just love to steal my monitor! Seems like they’re so poor that they can’t afford their own. Enough! Here’s the solution :-)

How to make .mp4’s streamable through JW Player

If you’ve created an .mp4, for example through NCH’s VideoPad Video Editor (Windows) and find that the output doesn’t stream (buffer) through JW Player, then you can download QTIndexSwapper.air (Adobe Integrated Runtime) for Windows here: http://renaun.com/blog/code/qtindexswapper and process your buggy .mp4 files through it. Afterwards streaming/buffering will work fine.
