Pebble search

This change to Pebble 2.1 avoids the Confirm dialog that appears when users go back to the results of the search action. The dialog reads as follows.

The page you are trying to view contains POSTDATA that has expired from cache. If you resend data, any action the form carried out (such as search or online purchase) will be repeated. To resend data, click OK. Otherwise, click Cancel."

Editing mov files with Windows Movie Maker

If you own a point and click camera that records video, there's a good chance that it saves the files as QuickTime Movies (mov files). Unfortunately, Windows Movie Maker (free) doesn't read that file format. If you want to edit the files (to add a watermark for example) then you're going to have to convert the files first before you can edit them. Here's what you have to do.

You're going to need a program called MPlayer. You can download it for free. It doesn't use an installer. Unzip the files and run it from the extracted folder.

  1. Download MPlayer and extract the files.
  2. Download mov2avi.bat and wmv2mp4.bat into the MPlayer directory.
  3. Drop the mov files (it can be located anywhere) one at a time onto mov2avi.bat
