Installing Lion on P5E

Step 1


Install Unibeast. Install Easybeast.
Install Network Kext from Multibeast.
Update /Extra/org.chameleon.boot.plist to include "Graphics Mode"="1920x1440x32" to activate graphics card.
iCloud works (since BuildInIO is set to true in S/L/E networkprefences.plist)
Install VoodooHDA 0.2.1 from Multibeast to get audio.
Western Digital Caviar Black (or any new drive with 4K sectors does not boot). Go to Step 2 if you have 4K sector disk.

(Sandy Bridge Install http://www.tonymacx86.com/viewtopic.php?f=168&t=36674&start=0)


Step 2 for 2TB or larger disks with 4K sectors


Clone the installed copy of Lion disk above to the 2TB 4K sector disk
reboot (It will fail, boot back into above disk)
Install Chimera boot loader from Multibeast
reboot (It will fail, boot back into above disk)
diskutil list (not the diskXsY of 2TB disk)
Unmount 2 TB disk from disk util
sudo -s
dd if=/usr/standalone/i386/boot1h of=/dev/rdiskXsY
reboot
done


Step 3

If you use migration assistant DO NOT migrate "Other folders" from old disk. It will overwrite chameleon stuff and make the system unbeatable.
Also do not migrate settings or applications

Object Oriented Programming using Objective-C

• Methods are invoked by sending messages to the object
• Messages will only ask to perform an activity, not the data that it’ll be performed on. Object decides what data it’ll be performed on
• An object can be redefined as receiver to conduct the same activity on a different set of data or a different activity altogether. Receiver is sort of an instance of an object.
• The result of a message can’t be calculated from the message or method name alone; it also depends
  on the object that receives the message
• Using the static storage class designator to limit the scope of names to just the files
  where they’re declared enhances the independence of source modules
• Function names are global; each function must have a unique name (except for those declared static).
• A function is useful only to those who agree to use the same kind of data structures it accepts as arguments. Because it hides its data, an object doesn’t have this problem. This is one of the principal reasons why classes can be reused more easily than functions.
• Must use, Implementation and Interfaces seperately to hide information.

iPhone OS Overview

In Cocoa Touch layer, The UIKit framework provides the visual infrastructure for your application, including classes for windows, views, controls, and the controllers that manage those objects.

IMPORTANT: Start by learning everything about UIKit. Its the start point for any new project.

How-To: Stream TV shows to your iPhone & iPod Touch wirelessly with EyeTV

JAN 21 2008

Posted by luna6 11 Comments

This simple how-to is for anyone interested in streaming recorded television shows from their Mac computer (using EyeTV software) to across the internet and onto their iPhone or iPod Touch. With EyeTV 2.5 or higher you can use their PVR software to stream recorded television shows across your local LAN with their “WIFI Access” feature. What’s not well documented is that you can just as easily stream those shows across the internet to your iPhone, iPod Touch, select smartphones and other laptops/desktops. The system requirements to stream shows are :

EyeTV software 2.5 or higher
Mac Computer (preferably Intel based computers).
iPhone or iPod Touch
Router on your local LAN.

*Also having Elgato’s turbo.264 isn’t required, but it will greatly help to speed up the encodes for your mpeg2 tv recordings to the h.264 format, which the iPhone and iPod Touch uses.

STEP 1:
First step is to give your home Mac computer a static ip address if it does not already. Open up System Preferences –> Internet & Network –> Network. Then select Airport or Ethernet depending on whether you use a wireless (Airport) or wired (Ethernet) connection to access the internet. Once that is opened navigate to the TCP/IP tab (for Airport you have to go into the Advanced setting) and under “Configure IPv4″ select from the drop down box “Using DHCP with manual address.” Then in the “IP Address” box type in a permanent ip address for your Mac computer. It’s a good idea to pick something under the 192.168.x.100 range to not interfere with any dynamic addresses handed out by router. As an example give your Mac the IP address of 192.168.0.90 or 192.168.1.90 (depending on which range your router uses).

STEP 2 :
If you are using OS X’s firewall you have to give permission for EyeTV to accept incoming connections. This is done through System Preferences –> Personal –> Security –> Firewall. Once there select click the + box and add the EyeTV program (found in Applications) AND EyeConnect service found in /Library/Application Support/EyeConnect/EyeConnect.app.

STEP 3:
Next step is to enable the “WIFI Access” feature in EyeTV. This is accomplished by opening EyeTV –> Preferences. Once that window is opened, click the check box under “WIFI Access” which reads “Enable access from Safari on iPhone, iPod Touch, or Mac/PC.

STEP 4:
Most likely you have a dynamic ip through your ISP. This creates problems connecting from remote iPhones and iPod Touches because of the ip changes. To solve this we will use dyndns.org to give ourselves a permanent hostname accessible from the internet no matter what IP address your ISP has assigned to your home network.

Go to http://dyndns.org and sign up for their free service. Once logged in to their service select “Dynamic DNS” under free service. Give yourself an easy to remember hostname (example Johneyetv.dyndns.org), then make sure your home computer’s ip address is given to that dyndns account and then install their update client onto your Mac computer (for any future ip changes).

For further information on these steps, read dyndns.org’s howto here

https://www.dyndns.com/services/dns/dyndns/howto.html

and you can download their mac client update program here

https://www.dyndns.com/support/clients/mac.html
STEP 5:
Last step is to forward port 2170 on your home router to your Mac computer. Every brand of router has a different configuration, but they will have “Port Forwarding” available somewhere. Once you find that section input “2170″ next to the TCP/IP section and for the IP address input the static IP Address you selected from STEP 1 (ex 192.168.0.90 or 192.168.1.90).
FINISHED
Once that is done, the setup completion is finished. To view your recorded programs on your iPhone or iPod Touch launch Safari and type in the hostname that you picked in STEP 4, plus port 2170 and the eyetv directory. As an example if your hostname is Johneyetv.dyndns.org then you would input into iPhone’s Safari web browser :

http://Johneyetv.dyndns.org:2170/eyetv

Now you can watch all your recorded shows on your iPhone and iPod Touch. As an added bonus, the shows are streamed to your device, so they don’t take up anymore storage space. You can also opt to download the shows.
