I've been looking everywhere for this but with no result. Does anyone know of a sidebar widget for Windows 7 that can play and loop through videos in a folder? I'm looking for something exactly like the Photo Frame widget, but for videos instead of pictures. There's already a TV widget for live streaming, but I want something that loops through videos in a folder instead.
I recently bought a new Samsung 23" LED monitor and connected it using HDMI. Just now when I was trying to play a video file in Windows media player, only the first frame is displayed. If I keep resizing the window, the video plays normally and stops when I let go of the mouse. This issue happens with Media Player classic too. Strangely, Media Center has no issues playing whatever I throw at it and VLC is not affected at all. I uninstalled the K-lite Mega Codec Pack, downloaded the latest version of it and reinstalled it to no availnity can provide[CODE]
I have an MP4 video that I want to be converted to PNG images (every single frame).I've downloaded a number of programs that claim to do this but not exactly how I want. One program I tried was Avidemux, which is almost what I wanted, but it only outputs to JPG.I tried virtualdub but the file won't open in it.
As of recently my computer turns off my wireless connection every time I am idle for more than 5 minutes it seems. After being idle for 5 minutes or so my wireless icon turns to: [URL]
When I unplug it, it still shows internet activity... I have no internal wireless cards in my system: [URL]
When I plug it back in it still shows the same wireless network connections screen. However I cannot plug into any network: [URL]
I tried rebooting my modem and router but that doesn't work either. Only thing that works is that I need to restart my computer.
My widget icons have inexplicaby moved from the right of the screen to abouy 2 inches to the left, thereby obscuring some desktop iicons. How can iget them to "snap" backto where they one belonged (get back-beatles)?
I was just wondering if there is a program that monitors all of your system specs and reports to you if anything is not running the way it's supposed to? I'm also wondering if this program has a cool widget I can put on my desktop also? For instance, I have Core Temp, GPU meter and other windows 7 widgets, but I don't think they actually alert you if something ever does go wrong or if temps are out of their normal range. I just built a new machine and I want to make sure everything is running fine and the way it's supposed to.
My main problem is that When I switched over to Win 7 my frame rate drop over half when I play WOW. I have tried several different drivers.Tweak force, Nivida Beta and current released, plus an older one that is in Win 7. Just cant get it to go up. I switch back to XP(on separate drive) and its back to the high frame rate.
I am looking for several things. 1st what is causing the problem, Can I correct with what I have? If I need to replace parts, what should I replace and with what. I think my video card is ok. I use the system for WOW, Unreal Tourment 3, and the age of Empire series. Plus Digi Photography. I mainly play WOW. I like Nivida and AMD.
I have read it could be driver related or not enough CPU power and mem. WOW is a hog on the resources I am told.
My pc configuration is not so good (core2 duo 2.2GHz, 2gb ram, NO ADDITIONAL VIDEO HARDWARE) i'm using Win 7 ultimate sp1(rating 2.7). the frame rate is not good while gaming. is there any way that i can downgrade my directX to 9.0c somehow?
I was told by Blackberry that the reason why I can't open my desktop manager program to back up my BB is due to the fact that my Microsoft.net frame work folder could be corrupted or damaged. How do I go about checking that out or go about reinstalling the file?
I have pinpointed the primary source of my graphics card's coil whine as high fps. In some applications such as crysis, I get upwards of 4000 fps in the intro screens, causing my graphics card to sound like its a dying rat. Obviously this is completely unnecessary...is there a program or feature of catalyst that allows me to limit the fps across all programs?

My clock stops "staying on top" after a couple hours after every time I boot. Since my taskbar is set to disappear, I like having a clock readily visible. Is this because I'm using a third party gadget, or is there a fix for this?
I need to know how to set up the sidebar (on left side) where the folders are located.Does this version not save emails that I send or must I BCC each email? I can't find where deleted emails go? Is there no trashcan for deleted emails?
After getting Windows 7 x64 installed, I was having a problem getting the Pandora Gadget to work. It turns out this gadget uses Flash, which only comes in a 32 bit version. The Sidebar is x64, and can't access Flash. I came up with a quick and dirty way to load the 32 bit sidebar instead which allows flash to work! I know there are several gadgets out there that use flash so this should be a fix for all of them.
I always wanted to revert Seven back to Beta visuals, i already have the Fish wallpaper, and know apps to change the logon screen, but i discovered something that i can't figure out how to change it. That's the Explorer's sidebar on the left side which was blue back then and not silver like in the RTM.
for about 2 months now, every time my laptop does something involving graphics (usually playing games or watching a video on Internet, or anything involving flash), i'll notice that my cpu usage spikes to 100%, which causes slowdown, i.e.: gameplay/videos will be slow and choppy, sometimes freezing for a few seconds to a few minutes before resuming. it usually does this in intervals, i'll have a few seconds of normal gameplay/video and then the freezing. considering that this also happens when i play offline games, i'm suspected that it's my graphics card that is the culprit.for reference, i'm using an ati radeon hd 3200 graphics display adapter on my laptop. i've tried updating the driver not too long ago, which ended up installing the ati ccc, but the problem still persists. i haven't had this before and the games/videos used to work fine.looking in the task manager, i see that its the application that i'm running that's hogging the cpu (either firefox for Internet/flash or even stuff like tf2 and maplestory).
i can't play a game without them being so laggy. Its not the driver i already tried the video card is good(it worked very well on XP before i install 7) and so the CPU. i don't know what to do.
my games are NHL 09, sims, rainbow six vegas 2. Even online games like Combat Arms is so laggy althought at first i thought it was the connection but i'm starting to doubt about it..
I have a compaq tc4400 tablet. It was recently updated to word 2010 and since then it gets a black frame around the screen when I plug it into a VGA cable....I can't use the tablet feature because it won't calibrate!
I hope I can get my question right!! I have a Tohiba satalite L>T I don't like the annoying sidebar for the Toshiba cam settings. It pops out if you point the mouse to the left of the screen where it is located. I just got my pc back from repair, so i'm starting over. The amazing part is I disabled it the first time when I got my laptop, but I can't remember how I did it. I have been going crazy trying to find answers. Usually I save any research tracks in finding answers, but couldn't find where I wrote it down the first time.
Currently my sidebar not working properly. I can choose the gadgets that I want but when I drag it to desktop it doesn't show correctly . I restarted my PC many times and it still not working.
My ISP lmits my download to almost nothing, except for three hours in the early morning. I have a monitor in my notification area that tells how many MB I have left (this is from the ISP), and during the day with nothing running my MB slowly drops. I installed NetBalancer, to see where all the download was going, and all I can find downloading is Windows Update, and System Resources. At least for the most part that is.So my question is, Is there any way to limit Windows Update, and other Windows Systems to downloading only during those three hours? I have Windows Update setting set to only Install at 4:00am. But it still downloads during the day. So is there any thing I can do, a reg edit, or something?
so I switched from Windows XP to Windows 7 last week and I've been getting random frame rate drops..I got pretty good frame rates in Windows XP and didn't get any choke at all..in Windows 7 my frame rates are around 50-60 (which is fine) but they randomly and frequently drop to like 10-15 fps for 2-3 seconds. It gets annoying after a while obviously.
my computer specs are as follows:
Windows 7 32-bit
Pentium 4 3.2 GHz HT
1.5GB RAM
160GB HDD
nVidia 8800GS video card
has anyone else experienced this or can anyone recommend a solution to fixing the problem?
