Problem: GOM Player wont play DTS audio through SPDIF

Problem: Gom player hangs up/doesnt make a correct audio pass trough if you choose a DTS audio stream

Solution1: There seems to be a problem with the DTS Passtrough if you select SPDIF in the audio-preferences. If you want to play DTS sound, youll have to choose stereo output. For some reason DTS passtrough works on this setting. For AC3 Sound youll have to set it up to SPDIF again.

(GOM Player Audio-Preferences)


Solution2: Download and install AC3 Filter (LINK). Open "AC3 filter config":

Set the parameters as seen above and restart GOM player..

Ps: After so many hits on this post, I have to say that I'm not an expert on this case. Just sharing what worked for me. Didnt work out for you? Have another idea? Feel free to comment please!

Problem: Nokia Player does not start/refresh the Music Library/Cant select song as ringtone

Problem: The Nokia Player opens up, but you cant see any symbols and cant refresh the music library. OR You cant select a song as a ring or alarm tone.
Solution:
Deleting the created music library actually seems to be the solution for various problems. Here is how you do it:

1. The File System Structure may be damaged (which was the cause in my case) and you'll have to run scandisk (Error-checking) on your flash drive your music is in. After that, try running the player again.
2. Go into the folder /Private (its a hidden folder in the root of the flash drive) and you will see several directories like "101f8857", "20001f63".. in it. Find the one that has a directory named "Cache" in it and delete the folder.. This will delete the music library the player has created before and the nokia player should be able to refresh after that.

C# Coding: Errors and Solutions

These are just some small Problems and their solutions i encountered so far in C#:

• Situation: Creating a C# Console Application
• Error Message [English]: "The type or namespace name
  'Windows' does not exist in the namespace 'System' (are you missing an
  assembly reference?)"
• Error Message [German]: "Der Typ oder Namespacename 'Windows' ist in der Klasse oder dem Namespace 'System' nicht vorhanden (fehlt ein Assemblyverweis?)"
  
• Solution: You need to add the file "System.Windows.Forms.dll" as a reference to your project (Right click on references -> Add Reference -> .net tab)
  

Buying a Notebook - Some simple but important Criteria

Simple but important things for a long term usage:

• It has a HDD Light: You can see if the HDD is busy or not
• The Speakers are NOT at the Bottom
• Memory Cards go completely in: If you want to leave it in all the time, its important that half of it doesnt stick out
• The Battery doesnt stick out of the Case like (Sideview):
  
• There is a LED Light that turns OFF when the Battery is fully loaded
• You can open it up without needing to hold the bottom part down
• The Power Adaptor is not too big (see my Lenovo Review)

Ps: Technology is GREAT, users are bitchy ;)
