Hiya guys

Can anyone recommend some software that can mask an image on a video? e.g. car registration plates

Many thanks

Nice to see you up to your usual standards

Swimming with the NWZ-W273 Walkman® waterproof MP3 player

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Fri, 10 May 2013 20:32:50 GMT

So my question is:

Are there many people actually buying these and using them regularly when swimming? I am really tempted to hit the buy button because I am in the pool at least a couple of times a week and in theory the idea sounds great and really appeals to me. So anyone using them?

Just found this while sorting out my videos and thought it fitted well into this thread unless of course there is a "Sony 55″ 4K TV with Magnetic Fluid Sound System" thread out there

Yes, it was great :-) let us know how you get on with the competition.

Visit to Sony HQ - Weybridge

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Fri, 01 Feb 2013 23:31:48 GMT

It was fantastic having the opportunity to have a look at the new product lines for 2013. From slicing oranges on the new Xperia Tablet, to waterproof headphones, a must for all swimmers, and even the appearance of something that slightly resembled the Rolly, but cooler

The new TV range was awesome, coupled with demonstrations by guys who were totally passionate about the product, made this part of the evening just mind blowing. What can I say, the 4K was to die for, even up close, and I mean like centimeters away from the screen, the quality was superb, a must for anyone with a spare £25k. Even for more modest amounts, with X-reality Pro picture processing, triluminos colour and 2K up-scaling the picture quality available is fantastic, especially when compared side-by-side with the Samsung !!

The visit helped me make up my mind about which Home Cinema system to go for, something I’d been thinking about for a while. The demonstration flipping the sound between the conventional speakers and the NASA inspired magnetic fluid speakers sealed the deal and showed that Sony recognises that it is the whole visual and audio experience that counts.

The prototype “hand-made” TV, with the built-in magnetic fluid sound system looked amazing and sounded even better (if that is possible), the reaction on everyone’s face when Adele hit those high
notes was priceless.

To finish the evening, the hospitality continued with a chip butty and a pint of Guinness. Epic

Ahh, it was from Ed. Ok, well as I said I didn’t get it, it probably got deleted in junk.

Sounds like a pretty cool competition though, but to be honest I’ve only just really started to use it. I have it mounted on the front screen of my GT86 and have started to have a play with it. Cool prize though, I
already have a NEX-5N and NEX-5R which I can highly recommend, so fingers crossed for you.

I tried to edit my original post to re-upload my photos, but in true forum style it didn’t work, so have added them again here.

Hey, long messages are fine with me, it helped so thanks

I don't recall receiving an email regarding a competition. Was it from Lee? To be honest I have so much junk, things can easily get lost

So, tell me about this competition...

Also, just noticed my pictures in this thread aren't visible anymore ??

Thanks for the info.

Still a bit of a palava, but managed to get there in the end using the pdf

As an end note the paper documentation that came with the camera was absolutely rubbish!

Hey, that is pretty cool

In fact, you may be able to help me with my latest question about the ActionCam. It took a while but I have now started to use it:

Using Smartphone to view and control ActionCam

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 18:01:38 GMT

Hiya Guys

Wondering if somebody can point me in the right direction.

I've started using my ActionCam and read that you can view and control it from your Smartphone. I have an Xperia U and managed to connect the phone to the ActionCam via wireless, but not sure what the next step is to view and control.

Any help would be much appreciated

wow, has it been this long since I started looking at cars

Anyway, am taking the Toyota GT86 out for a spin on Monday, so if I like, which I have a sneaky feeling I will, will hopefully get it ordered for the beginning of March.

Defo will have to go for the orange, and the sales guy is already trying to talk me into the satellite navigation system, we shall see

This sounds really cool, especially as I'm just considering buying a home cinema system, so if there's something new coming I'd be interested to have a play/listen, so can I come please :

PowerPoint Presentations

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Mon, 14 Jan 2013 16:30:22 GMT

Hiya guys

Yes, it’s hard to believe but I am taking a 9 month break from my Masters, and one of the things on my list of “things to do” is update all my PowerPoint presentations.

I’m sure most of you have either presented using PowerPoint or have at least sat through a PowerPoint presentation, so my question is:

What for you makes a good or bad presentation? any tips, hints and advice?

I usually present at least a couple of times a week and have different groups that I present to, e. g. in lectures to university students, in meetings with professional colleagues and in communicating information to groups of “lay people".

Much love

PCG-7V1M Video Problem

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Tue, 01 Jan 2013 17:02:39 GMT

Hiya guys

One of my laptops appears to have developed a video chip/card problem. The model number is PCG-7V1M

It works fine when I first switch it on and it's cold, but after it's been on for about 10 minutes the screen starts to develop lines and random blocks of colours to the point where it becomes unusable. At this point if I switch it off and back on again, the display still has problems, even at the initial BIOS boot up screen.

Any advice, is this a known problem ?, any idea how much it would cost to fix it ?, just wondering if it's worth it or not.

Thanks

Faith

Advice on first camera for beginner

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 17:38:56 GMT

Hiya guys

I'm after a bit of guidence :-) Which model would you recommend for a 15 year old starting GCSE photography? Obviously, he reckons he needs an all singing, all dancing top of the range machine. Whereas, I'm more of the thinging, he should work his way up. I think maybe something a bit more than a cybershot, I'm thinking a NEX-3 or 5.

Any advice would be gratefully received :-)

Xperior Phone Cover

noreplyforum@eu.sony.com — Fri, 14 Sep 2012 23:07:51 GMT

Never knew it would be so hard to find a suitable cover for my Xperior U phone

Yes, I have got the pink hard back which is great, but I need something to protect
the screen. The Sony case is pretty tosh, so was looking for a funky sock :-)

I'm thinking this one maybe a step too far ..............
