Coming up on this episode of Pixil:
Today, we’ll look at how remote editing has become easier with the introduction of Final cut 7.Streaming draft previews is accomplished with the new iChat Theater option.

This very useful feature is great way to show off the latest cut to your clients. This option essentially  feeds your Final Cut Canvas screen to an iChat video message. Lets check out how the workflow I use in performing an iChat remote edit. When preforming a remote edit, it always helps to see a better frame rate. Editing across the net is never fun, but sometime necessary when completing deadlines.

When combined with remote access software, like logmein, iChat one can use a more powerful machine to edit off location! To do this we active the remote software on the remote computer. Offsite we log in and active iChat on both computers. Using two different iChat accounts we’ll message the control the host computer through Final Cut. We’ll start off by going into Final Cut

Under: View > iChat Theater > Start Sharing

Hit OK to active. While still in the remote account, go to the iChat buddy list and connect to the controller account. On the control computer, accept the invite. Using a second monitor, we can drag the iChat video screen over. Okay, and now we have a better frame rate to remotely edit to!

Okay and that’s how control final cut with iChat. This isn’t the best editing experience, but on a deadline it gets the job done. And that’s it for this episode of Pixil.info. I’m Pedro for Pixil.info See you next time!

Installing a Wii Mod Chip
Before we Start Disassembling the wii, We want to make sure we have all the appropriate tools to get the job done.

• Wiikey
• Triwing Screwdriver
• 15w Soldering Iron
• Small piece of 30 AWG wire
• Silver Bearing Solder
• Tweezers
• Rosin Soldering Flux
• Electrical tape
• Wiikey Setup Disc

First, test and see how our wiikey is going to be positioned on the Circuit Board.

Apply Soldering Flux to each of the 6 pad points. Then apply silver bearing solder to each of the 6 pad points. Position the chip so all of the 6 pad points match the correct spot on the circuit board. For this next step You will need 2 inch, 30 gauge wire. Apply soldering flux to each of the six points on the circuit board. Now apply silver bearing solder to each of the six points on the circuit board. Carefully solder the 2, inch, 30 gauge wire to the points on the circuit board

Place the wiikey on the board and feed threw the wired points. Curve all the wires to match to the correct pads and solder all wires closed to from the wiikey to the circuit board points. Cut the access off the wires. Apply some black electrical tape over the key to prevent any shortages. plug the everything back in and place the wiikey setup disk in and should look like a game cube game. If so proceed, if not double check your points.

Enjoy your Wii!
