FCPX Preview Screen Goes Blank / Black

  Lately (for 2 months now), I've been having issue with my FCPX. Specifically, the Preview Screen was blank / black, even when playing on parts with video / jpg media. Tried googling and do the all the steps people recommend: delete all generated files, clear caches, restart computer, run the program on another clean account, unistall and reinstall FCPX. All to no avail. Still the preview screen was stubbornly blank. Then one day, I needed to access another mac, so I unplugged one of my monitors to work on that mac. Then I found out FCPX on my mac works fine. The Preview Screen is back!! So apparently, for me, it's an issue of monitor. I don't know what caused it, but the solution is this: 1. unplug other monitors (use only 1 monitor -- I use an external monitor for this) 2. restart FCPX (no need to restart computer for me) 3. after the preview screen works fine, plug back other monitors (if you need to work with multiple monitors) Writing it down now before I forget....

Guides to Virtual Choir

Dalam rangka pandemi ini, paduan suara tidak dapat berlatih bersama, apalagi melayani bersama. Karena itu, maka mulailah inisiatif untuk mengadakan paduan suara online, untuk pelayanan.  Agar hasilnya bisa optimal, anggota paduan suara perlu mengingat, bahwa mereka bernyanyi bukan sebagai solois, tapi sebagai bagian dari paduan suara yang besar. Jadi meskipun saat rekaman, kadang merasa kurang sempurna, selama anggota paduan suara memberikan yang terbaik (bukan asal-asalan yah), saya percaya Tuhan memberkati pelayanan kita semua. Nah, tentu saja ada beberapa tips yang bisa kita ikuti, supaya hasil rekaman bisa bagus dan maksimal. Contohnya: rekaman memakai tripod dalam ruangan yang pencahayaan cukup dan tidak membelakangi matahari/sumber cahaya adalah beberapa cara yang bisa kita pakai untuk menaikkan kualitas video kita. Berikut ini adalah guidelines / tips untuk merekam video untuk paduan suara online, yang aku buat untuk PS Agape. Semoga bisa membantu. Note: Panduan ini

Meiji Black Chocolate Puzzle

I recently bought a Meiji Black Chocolate Puzzle, thinking it would be fun to play with kids, especially while waiting for our food in the restaurant. I mean, this is better than screen time, right? Little did I know.. this puzzle is actually the harder version of the milk chocolate puzzle (which I didn't know exist). Now, THAT puzzle has lots of solutions and would be fun for kids. But this one? THIS puzzle has ONE solution (according to the YouTube video I watched, anyway). After several hours of frustrating "why is this not working" moments, I caved in and watched the YouTube solution. For my own reference (and sanity), here's the solution. For the next time I need to clean the puzzle up quickly. Hope this helps whoever is currently stuck and ready to give up...

Movie Time

THE movie of the year is without a doubt Avengers: Endgame. I mean, it's the final chapter of phase 1 of MCU (or 1 away from the final chapter, which as everyone knows, is the best part with all the fightings and all the happenings). So we decided to go and watch it (of course!). Since the movie is about 3 hours long, I wanted to buy the premiere version. Better seats. But much to my surprise, the premiere seats were all sold out. I mean, for a 10.45 AM show. I mean, come on people, don't you have to go to work? And not only that, but it was sold out for the next few days until the end of the month. For all of the showings in Premiere. I mean, I knew this movie would be popular, but this popular? Uhm.. yeah, I didn't expect it. Whacha lookin' at? Anyway, we finally decided to just watch it on the regular screen. Waiting for the theater to open Oh boy, it's a loooooongggga movie. Thankfully I knew about it beforehand, so I limit the kids&#
