system works perfectly and very fast on a 150GB velociraptor, but there is a strange problem

i cannot for example drag&drop subtitles in the VLC player window (cannot drag&drop either a movie in the player window )

( u see it in action, when it open the movie ONLY in the controller window //00:13'' in the movie i attach)

i thought that it was something about VLC,i tried some versions with no luck so i said whatever..

recently i realized that i cannot drag&drop a picture in a photoshop empty fila/canvas (drag it from desktop to the canvas it rejects it)

now i noticed that i cannot drag&drop an mp3 in itunes! :wacko:

so, anybody have some clue?

really strange...

look what i mean in this small 1MB video i captures (it rejects the drag&drop in vlc and itunes)

 

dragdrop.mov

 

like it throws it back...why?

for example somebody cannot drag&drop a pic in "preview.app"

stickman thankz man

 

edit: about preview... yes it works with the sidebar drag&drop

so... i start to blv that this is limitation to osx

i know that i can drag the file in the dock and yes it will open it at the application with that way

but drag and drop???is so usefull in some apps

example:

i opened an avi in vlc and i have my .srt subtitle somewhere and i want to load it manually

i will need to drag and drop, this works in windows

in leopard i need to open the movie with "file/open" and load the subtitle only if it has the exact name

so how u can drag & drop subtitles in VLC...?

are u sure that something is not wrong here?

 

2nd HUGE example, about "job/speed"

i work a project in photoshop and i am trying to find images in net

i open a lot of tabs in firefox and when i locate my good pic i need to drag it from the firefox and throw it in PS but not as a new file

i need to drop in the canvas i have opened my main project

EXAMPLE in this 5'' .mov (please do the same, and tell me if it works...)

ScreenFlow.mov

this is normal in windows XP but here i will have to drop it in desktop and then open it in photoshop by dropping in the app's icon in dock.

lose of time?

 

so are u sure this is ok???

There is really no answer for STUPIDITY!!!!

 

you CANNOT drag some thing onto the Background, you will see it shows that it is locked!!

Even in you video, as soon as you started adding text, it opened a new layer!

This is how Photoshop, and many other packages, work, as soon as you add a working layer, you can drag just about anything from ANYWHERE onto it!! Barr dragging videos into Photoshop ;)

 

It's really just too much effort to make you a video to show you! IT WORKS!!
