![]() And diplomatically inform your friends, family, and colleagues that if they have problems playing your DVD, the fault probably lies with their players. If you’re shopping for a new DVD player, be sure to verify compatibility with the type of media you plan to burn. The picture is much more bleak when it comes to dual-layer DVD burning: a large percentage of DVD players have trouble playing dual-layer burned DVDs. ![]() ![]() Those are good numbers, although they won’t be of much solace if your player-or your boss’s-is in the minority. Roughly 85 percent of DVD players can read DVD-R and DVD+R discs, and about 80 percent can read DVD-RW and DVD+RW discs. Generally, older DVD players and drives are most likely to have this problem, but you may encounter it in newer players, too. The sad fact is, some DVD players and personal computer DVD drives are unable to read burned DVD media. You pop the disc into the conference room DVD player and proudly press the play button-and nothing happens. You’ve burned a disc and are ready to show it off to your boss. Dual-layer burned discs often do not play in standalone DVD players, and may lack the longevity of single-layer discs. Incidentally, if you have a single-layer SuperDrive but would like to double your pleasure, you can buy external dual-layer burners that work just fine with iDVD. If you have a dual-layer drive, you’ll have the option of specifying dual-layer media. To verify that your Mac is capable of dual-layer burning, choose Project > Project Info, and click on the DVD Type pop-up menu. With a dual-layer drive, you can burn nearly 8GB, or about four hours’ worth of video. If you’re interested in the technical details between the minus and plus formats, read Jim Taylor’s superb DVD FAQ at Dual-Layer DifferencesĪll of today’s Macs include SuperDrives capable of burning on dual-layer DVD+R media. Also, RW discs are more sensitive to damage and aging than write-once discs. RW discs are great for testing, although as the following page describes, you’re more likely to encounter playback problems on some DVD players. If you insert an RW disc that already contains data, iDVD even offers to erase it for you. The more important difference deals with R and RW: an RW disc can be erased and reused roughly 1,000 times. ![]() The differences between the “minus” and “plus” camps are technical ones and don’t have much bearing on your burning endeavors. All of the SuperDrives in today’s Macs can older SuperDrives support the DVD-R and DVD-RW formats only. It can burn any of the aforementioned formats, assuming your DVD burner supports them. Previous versions of iDVD could handle the DVD-R format only, but iDVD is now much more versatile. Several types of writable DVD media exist: DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, and DVD+RW. Also, consider turning off file sharing and quitting any disk-intensive programs. Recording a track in GarageBand while also burning a DVD is not a good idea, for example. When burning a DVD, avoid running complex programs that put a lot of demands on your system. If you will be burning a dual-layer DVD, do not try to burn it from a disc image. And if you have a slower Mac-or just seem to have trouble burning reliably-creating and burning a disc image can be a great way to increase your success rate. If your DVD has a lot of menus, transitions, and content, consider creating a disc image and using Mac OS X’s DVD Player program to test it. You’ll find full details on working with disc images on page 278. Consider a Disc Imageīefore you burn, consider creating a disc image, a kind of virtual disk that can be extremely useful for testing and burning. And don’t forget to proofread your menu titles and button text. Use the iDVD remote control to step through your menus and spot-check your video, slide shows, and any menu transitions you’ve added. Preview Firstīefore you insert that pricey blank DVD, preview your work by clicking iDVD’s Preview button. ![]() But before you burn, read the following tips. Simply click iDVD’s Burn button and insert a blank disc. What’s next? Burning the final product onto a blank DVD.

The statue and mummy would again be purified and sometimes wrapped in a linen shroud, and a summary of the rituals recited. The Sem Priest would touch the face of the mummy with his finger, imitating the action of cleaning the mouth of a newborn infant, and offerings of grain and a peseskhef knife would be made to the mummy. This was thought to separate the ba from the body so that the ba could be free when the body was buried. ![]() Then the lector priest would bring the foreleg of the sacrificed calf (which was similar in shape to the adze used in the ritual) to the mummy. The sem Priest would announce “I have seen my father in all his forms” and the other priests would respond by calling on the Sem Priest to take the place of Horus and protect his father Osiris (the deceased).Īt this point the statues of the deceased would also be awoken so that they could receive offerings for the deceased. At the entrance to the tomb the Sem Priest would fall into a trance, and then be symbolically woken by the other priests. An amulet in the form of a pesheskhaf knife was often included in burial goods along with small jars of natron and resin (which were used in the preparation of the mummy).ĭuring the funeral, the procession would make its way to the tomb. It was used during childbirth to cut the umbilical cord (one of the goddesses associated with childbirth, Meskhenet, was sometimes depicted with a peseskhaf on her head) and so in a funerary context it helped the deceased to be reborn. The peseshkaf was a spoon or fishtail shaped knife formed from a wide range of materials (including gold, carnelian, glass, obsidian, and flint). The image of an adze was the hieroglyph for the word “stp” meaning chosen.Ĭarpenter using an Adze, Tomb of Rekmire, New Kingdom It was originally made of stone (particularly basalt and diorite), but in later periods often had a metal blade, sometimes formed from meteoric iron. The adze (a cutting tool similar to an ax) was also used for planing and carving in carpentry, boat building and house building. It also involved the use of a number of tools, including an arm shaped incense burner, a serpent headed blade, numerous amulets and the adze and peseskhaf. ![]() Spells 21, 22 and 23 of the Book of the Dead refer specifically to this ritual. The ritual required the reading of numerous spells, and the sacrifice of a calf. In a royal burials, this may have been one way for the son of the king to confirm that he was the heir and successor of his father. It could also be performed by the son of the deceased wearing leopard skin robes. The ritual was conducted by the Sem Priest dressed in leopard skin robes. ![]() During the fourth dynasty of the Old Kingdom, only a bust of the tomb owner’s head was included! Opening the Mouth – Book of the Dead of Hunefer Many tombs included a statue of the deceased placed in a closed chamber known as a serdab. Thus, the statue could act as a useful backup should the body of the deceased be damaged or destroyed. When conducted on a statue (or from the New Kingdom, a coffin), it allowed the statue to act as a surrogate for the body. When performed on a mummy it allowed the spirit of the deceased to see, speak, hear, breathe, and to receive offerings of food and drink. The first references to this ritual are from the Old Kingdom, and it remained part of their burial practices throughout Egyptian history. It transformed the deceased into an akh, the reanimated and effective spirit that was one of the elements of the ancient Egyptian concept of the soul. The Opening of the Mouth (“wepet-er”) was the most important part of the burial ritual. ![]() ![]() ![]() Jones appear to have been secretly working.

Mega Man takes on the responsibility of taking those robots on. ![]() ![]() Wily has created robots that he is using to cause havoc and mayhem around the world. Story – 5/10 The story for every Mega Man game is basically the same. Once you had the order figured out it made the game easier to play because the boss fights weren’t as difficult. Learning the right order to fight the bosses in took a long time. If you didn’t have the right power up from the boss then beating a boss could be extremely difficult. Each boss was vulnerable to the special ability you gained from previous bosses. The second reason I played the game as much as I did was because of a gameplay component. It would take dozens of times through each level before you could reliably beat each one. The levels themselves while generally predictable have enough difficult portions that one play through rarely gives you the skill to beat the level perfectly every time. The first one is that this game is simply really well made. Addictiveness 9/10 I personally played this game a TON of times. The music on most levels was generally exciting enough but the boss fight itself got a change in music that made you feel the difference in that part of the level versus the rest. I also like the additional intensity that the boss fights got. This definitely kept the game more interesting because you didn’t have to play 10 levels with the exact same song playing during the main portions of the levels. Just like the individualized visual style for each level this game also had unique music styles for each level. The improvements from 1 to 2 are another big reason why Mega Man 2 solidified the series and kept it alive. The music is cleaner throughout and far better done. Sound – 8/10 I spent a few minutes listening to the original Mega Man game music and compared it to Mega Man 2’s music and wow is it a drastic difference in quality. That’s the main reason I didn’t give the game a 10/10 on graphics. There is more they could have done there. Most of the backgrounds in each level are either bland or monotonous. I still think there could have been more to the graphics. Each level design is unique and interesting which keeps each level fresh. This goes to show how perfectly they got the graphics for this game. The look of the series is solidified with this game and remains consistent throughout the NES portions of the series. They are definitely an improvement over the original game. Graphics – 8/10 The graphics for Mega Man are pretty good for the NES. More levels, more weapons, more bosses and more help from Dr. Everything that Mega Man did Mega Man 2 took and made better. Wily is back at his shenanigans and has a bunch more robots ready to do battle with Mega Man. The game itself doesn’t deviate much at all from the original game but improves upon that game. 1.5 million in sales made it the best-selling game of the NES series.
