GStreamer on TI DaVinci and OMAP
The streaming media encoding and decoding capabilities supported for a specific processor is described in the following table. More capabilities can be added by the release of a newer DVSDK or by adding codec support (such as including additional codecs that are run on the DSP).
The details of what each codec supports can be found by looking at the codec data sheet for each codec. These data sheets are located in the docs directory for the codec. For example to determine the profiles supported by the H.264 decoder on OMAP3 you can look at the H264_Decoder_OMAP3530_Datasheet.pdf file in the <dvsdk directory>/omap3530_dvsdk_combos_#_##_##/packages/ti/sdo/codecs/h264dec/docs directory. The table below will give a rough listing of which codecs are supported but you will need to consult the codec datasheet for your codec to determine which profiles are supported for each codec.
TI GStreamer Plugin Feature Matrix
Capability | DM355 | DM6446 | DM6467 | OMAP3 | DM357 | DM365 |
DVSDK Version | 2.00.00.22 | 2.00.00.22 | 2.00.00.22 | 3.00.0029 | 2.05.00.14 | 2.10.01.18 |
Audio Encode | ||||||
Audio Decode |
TIAuddec1 (xDM 1.x) |
Video Encode | TIVidenc1 | |||||
Video Decode | TIViddec2 (xDM 1.2) MPEG2, MPEG4, H264 |
Image Encode | TIImgenc1 (xDM 1.0) Formats UYVY, I420, Y42B |
Image Decode | TIImgdec1 (xDM 1.0) Format UYVY JPEG |
Plugin Parameters
The follow table was derived from inspect the ti_build/ticodecplugin/src/gstticodecs_*.c source files, which means the table will get out of date - so check the code. However, if you are new to GStreamer, the following maybe helpful as you experiement with all the possibilities.
Variable | DM355 | DM6446 | DM6467 | OMAP3 |
engineName | decode encode |
codecName |
aachedec |
For example, the following command is one way to decode an AAC file on an OMAP3:
gst-launch filesrc location=<sample.aac> ! TIAuddec1 codecName=aachedec engineName=decode ! alsasink
Plugin Notes
Once you have booted your device with a file system containing GStreamer and the TI GStreamer Plugin, you can use GStreamer introspection to learn more about the available plugins. For example:
gst-inspect | fgrep TI
is a set of command to fist list all GStreamer elements, then only display the ones containing TI. The results will be similar to:
TICodecPlugin: TIDmaiVideoSink: TI DMAI Video Sink TICodecPlugin: TIAuddec1: TI xDM 1.x Audio Decoder TICodecPlugin: TIAuddec: TI xDM 0.9 Audio Decoder TICodecPlugin: TIImgdec1: TI xDM 1.0 Image Decoder TICodecPlugin: TIImgenc1: TI xDM 1.0 Image Encoder TICodecPlugin: TIViddec2: TI xDM 1.2 Video Decoder TICodecPlugin: TIViddec: TI xDM 0.9 Video Decoder
gst-inspect TIAuddec1
and look for the capabilities:
audio/mpeg mpegversion: { 1, 4 }
This translates to supporting MPEG1, also known as MP3, and MPEG4, also known as AAC.

We know how to subscribe to Qt's maillinglists.
You don't have to forward everything to here.
Phoronix: Qt's Lars Knoll: "It's Really Sad To See This Happen"
Lars Knoll, the current Qt Chief Architect at Nokia and responsible for leading the Qt 5.0 development, has commented on the shutting down of Nokia's Qt Australia office...
We know how to subscribe to Qt's maillinglists.
You don't have to forward everything to here.
I feel sad for Nokia, they are doomed.
Considering the talent, they're probably getting offers already.
I agree that former Qt developers will probably find theirselves on the easier side of the labor market, but I think everyone here would prefer to see some other company buy the whole Qt thing and continue with the current developers. If Nokia regards the Qt team as nothing more than an opportunity to save money, but does not sell Qt to someone with an actual interest in improving it, then the project will slowly die.
Not that it matters much but; since when is Lars Norwegian?
I know his father and he is German at least.
Nokia signs deal with Microsoft
Nokia allows Qt to disintigrate
Microsoft publishes tools and guidelines for porting Qt applications to Windows
Anyone see the pattern here???
All these years and NOTHING EVER CHANGES
Clearly Qt 5.0 is considered a THREAT to Microsoft
Why else would they extend their resources to snuff it out?
Last edited by frantaylor; 08-02-2012 at 12:55 PM.
Indeed, I really do not see Microsoft having any specific interest in QT one way or the other.

This looks like a really, really nice HTPC, though you completely forgot to test the audio outputs! (at least I can't find something about it)
In my opinion the Nvidia Ion platform is extremely nice as a HTPC because compared to Intel graphic cards it supports VDPAU. For a nice HTPC it really is important to know if 5.1 channel audio through HDMI will work correctly. Also it is important to know if the audio through HDMI does not work, one can fall back to the integrated coaxial or optical SPDIF output and if that supports at least 5.1 audio channels.
These are really important thing to me you should consider when testing such a Nvidia Ion based platform.

- A look at the Senate immigration bill
WASHINGTON — To boil the political narrative of the Senate's massive immigration bill down to Colorado is to see the lengths Democrats like Sen. Michael Bennet went through in hopes of wooing Republican counterparts like Reps. Mike Coffman and Scott Tipton.
Bennet was one of the eight architects of the bill who worked with key Republican senators to commit to spend an extra $38 billion on border security — 20,000 new agents, 700 miles of new fencing, expensive technology such as drones and infrared cameras — to make the entire package appealing to House Republicans.
Bennet, and most Democrats, acknowledge the Senate likely didn't need the tens of billions in extra border security to get to the 60 votes needed to successfully pass the measure Thursday.
The bipartisan "Gang of Eight" — which includes Republicans from the border state of Arizona, Sens. John McCain and Jeff Flake — signed off on the initial $8 billion as enough to amply stiffen the frontier between Mexico and the United States.
But the gamble the Senate took to make the House members like the bill enough to eventually pass a version was, at least for Colorado's members, completely unsuccessful.
Colorado's four House Republicans Thursday uniformly said they were not impressed with the Senate package. They said they couldn't support providing a pathway to citizenship for the 11 million people living in the U.S. illegally. They resented pressure from the U.S. Senate to pass its version of the bill. And all insisted on proof the border was secure before tackling legalization — something the Senate soundly rejected as a "poison pill" unpalatable to Democrats.
"I think securing the border is really important, and I think it's important the American people have confidence that it's done, and I think that needs to happen before other things happen," said Coffman, an Aurora Republican whose new district is 20 percent Latino.
On whether Coffman supports a pathway to citizenship, he said, "I'm still undecided. I have to see what the rest of the compromise is ... To govern, you have to compromise."
Both he and Cortez Republican Scott Tipton were softer on the so-called DREAMers — young people who were brought to the country by parents as children.
Coffman said he was working with other lawmakers on a House DREAM Act.
"We need to be able to deal with them (the DREAMers) compassionately," Tipton said.
As for the adults, Tipton said, "not one person who is here illegally can be in front of anyone trying to get through the legal process."
The Senate bill addresses such concerns by expediting in the next 13 years the process for people who are in the figurative queue to get into the U.S.
Tipton said the "most important thing" is to fix the problem.
"I would not vote for it," said Rep. Cory Gardner, R-Yuma, an hour before the final 68-32 Senate vote. "It doesn't focus on border security, and it does it the wrong way. It moves the ball down the field without ensuring borders are secure."
Rep. Doug Lamborn, R-Colorado Springs, said the increased emphasis on border security was appealing, but then he called the bill a "nonstarter."
"I don't care how many senators vote for it," he said. "The system we have now is broken, but I don't want to go down the wrong path just for the sake of doing something. People should not be rewarded or given expedited treatment or preference if they come here illegally."
Lamborn said he was "still wrestling" about whether anyone — including DREAMers — deserved any pathway to citizenship and said he wanted border security before the conversation even started.
That sentiment, adhered to by some Senate Republicans as well, is a deal crusher in the delicate compromise that has been parsed over the past several months of negotiations, said Frank Sharry, executive director of the pro-immigration reform group America's Voice.
And Sharry was quick to point to the political risks waiting for conservatives.
"The Democrats are giving Republicans a chance to get right with Latino voters," Sharry said. "For Republicans to now say the enforcement isn't strong enough comes off as a sorry excuse from people who do not want 11 million Latino immigrants to become citizens. They keep moving the goal post, and what it reveals is that it will never be good enough for them."

STAFFING/HR BLOG -- SCOTT SUTTELL If you're happy at work and you know it take this surveyBy SCOTT SUTTELL 9:00 am, October 17, 2012
You're happy at work, right? Want to test yourself just to be sure?
Glenn Starkman's new workplace is elite, but the surroundings are extremely pedestrian.
No, really, I have the flu: About 30% of workers called in sick sick during the past year even when they weren't ill, according to a CareerBuilder survey. Slow climb: For female CFOs, count this as a sign of progress. "The Fortune 250 now counts 20 female chief financial officers, up from only one at the start of 2001, according to research from executive search firm CTPartners," reports another Crain's sister publication, Staffing Industry Analysts. Half of those CFOs have been named since 2009. Thirty-five percent of those women held CFO roles in other companies before being hired into their current positions, and 65% were internal hires. Thirty percent had 19 years' internal experience before being named CFO. Money's tight: Reuters reports that as cash-strapped U.S. cities and states struggle to address gaping budget holes, "a long-honored benefit for public-sector workers has come into the cross-hairs of budget cutters: retiree health insurance." The news service says a "growing number of states and cities are eliminating or reducing health coverage for retirees, a benefit that has long fallen by the wayside for most private-sector workers." But the coverage, which has meant that most retired public workers have all their medical bills fully paid, "is expensive and hugely underfunded," Reuters reports. Because health coverage does not typically have the strong legal protections that hamstring changes to public pension benefits, it is easier for governments to scale back. The trend could leave millions of public workers with thousands of dollars in unanticipated health care costs. "In 20 years, very few people will have this benefit," says Dennis M. Daley, a public management professor at North Carolina State University in Raleigh, N.C. You also can follow me on Twitter for more news about business and Northeast Ohio.

KatarrentoDoesnt Work !!!!!!I started using rogaine when I was 20 y/o just because my hair was starting to get thin ,,, than I used it for seven months and my hair looked great ,, was very nice ,, but than I stop using ,, and 7 months latter my hair was gone , I still experience my hair loss Im 23 now, exacly on the areas that I used rogaine , bad bad badposted Sep 15, 2006Link to this post
AlexItalyResults?I use rogaine for 2 yearsmy hair (and temple hair) falls anyway a little bit a daySorry but I dont see good resultsposted Aug 29, 2006Link to this post
Real Rogaine UserEnough Marketing! It Doesn't Work!Used Rogaine 5% for a year now. I have less hair than when I started. Only results, ruined pillows and feeling like an idiot thinking anything would work. Now afraid to stop, as all my hair will probably fall out overnight. There, a real response from a real user!posted Aug 22, 2006Link to this post
EdToronto, CanadaSlow ... But EffectiveWell, it doesnt work as quickly as youd like. Still, after a couple of months, my hair does seem fuller - not thinner. Thats a nice change.Hopefully with continued use, the trend will continue. Even if it just means making the hair I have now fuller and healthier looking.posted Jul 31, 2006Link to this post
ColeGainsville FLIt Works!!!!!!!!!!!!I bought a 3 month supply. Was losing my hair since i was 16 and im 22 now bought this in december. Im about to buy some more this stuff really works. I can see my hair growing. it starts out like baby hair and then gets color as it grows. But i can tell you it really works.posted Mar 6, 2006Link to this post
AnonymousNjIt Doesnt Regrow HairFor the huge majority of people rogaine does NOT regrow hair Even in the rogaine studies the people whose hairs did regrow still wasnt that significant What it does is PREVENTS OR SLOWS DOWN future hair loss for as long as you use it Once you stop using it you will loose the hairs that were kept intact by the rogaine Also it doesnt work on your hairline it works only for the top and vortex of your headposted Feb 23, 2006Link to this post
AnomynousNew ZealandIt Seems To WorkWell the guy who said 29 was too young to go bald. Well i started loosing hair not so long ago and im only 18. Thinning on the crown was the result. I feel this rogaine 5% has made the hair slightly thicker and after bout 2.5 months. hopefully over the next 3 month period i can get them to full thickness as no hairs have gone tottaly. just thinning. i keep you updatedposted Feb 1, 2005Link to this post
Jamie HarmonExcellent ResultsIm not ashamed of baldness, nor am I ashamed to tell people Ive been using Rogaine to prevent it. Ive been using Rogaine for ten months and achieved excellent results.posted Mar 4, 2004Link to this post
Jamie HarmonMy Wife Was Very, Very, Very PleasedI was a twenty-nine year old guy and I was going bald; Id had enough. I figured twenty-nine was too young to be going bald (so did my wife, although she didnt tell me that). But, its not like you automatically decide to try to grow more hair; its kind of like, one day you realize that youre really losing your hair in a big way and youre not happy about it. When I finally decided to do something about it, I figured I had nothing to lose by trying Rogaine. I mean, Id heard that it was one of the few genuine hair treatments available and so I bought it with high hopes.When I started it, I had the same sort of confidence that you have when you start taking most medicines--you know, I was certain that it was going to take care of the problem right away, overnight. In fact, I kind of expected to start growing hair the first day. I guess I was a little disappointed when I looked in the mirror the next morning and couldnt see all of my old hair back. A couple of days later, my expectations died down and I realized that it must just take a little while for the stuff to start working. By then, I got used to applying Rogaine everyday, I mean, I kept using it but I sort of forgot why I was doing it. It was just part of my daily routine:every morning and every night--brush teeth, apply Rogaine, etc. After about four or five months, my wife and friends noticed that my bald spot had really started filling in. The hair on the top of my head had started growing again, and I hadnt even noticed until they pointed it out to me. To say the least, I was very pleased. And my wife was very, very, very pleased. I really like having my hair back--even more than I thought I would. I am so satisfied. I fully intend to keep on using Rogaine, you know, until my hair suddenly starts to grow again on its own. And Ill never know if that happens because Ill be using Rogaine.posted Jul 6, 2003Link to this post
Jamie HarmonMy Hair Was Thicker And FullerWhen I first started using Rogaine, I specifically asked my barber to let me know if it was working or not so I would know whether to continue its use. She told me it was, so I continued. I told some friends and family that I was using it and that it seemed to be working. They then told me that they thought my hair was thicker and fuller.posted Feb 7, 2003Link to this post

glxgears is mainly a cpu benchmark, and not a good one even there.
$ export vblank_mode=0
$ glxgears
mobility x1900 yields 1400 frames
HD5850(profile high) only 1200
distribution is debian testing, with kernel 3.8 (liquorix)
Also, I noticed current r600 driver on 5850 is EXTREMELY inefficient when it comes to textures.
For example, in urban terror 4.2, map Cascade, when player looks at fontain that is essentially moving (multilayered?) textures the fps goes down to 20.
But if player rises head straight up, it goes to 80 fps.
On simple maps without this, there is no such issue.
glxgears is mainly a cpu benchmark, and not a good one even there.
Yep. The glxgears demo does so little drawing per frame that you're mostly measuring per-draw and per-frame driver overhead, so there's not much correlation between glxgears numbers and real world numbers these days.
Driver optimizations can even make the correlation negative -- the same extra driver code which allows the chip to run more efficiently under heavy load slows things down under trivial load.
glxgears is definitely not a benchmark. It is only useful as a way of showing that your gpu has direct rendering working. Thats it.
Thanks for replies!
So, apparently mobile x1900 on lastest kernel 3.8.4 can achieve 2300 fps in glxgears due to HyperZ!
And easily runs 32 (thirty two) glxgears instances distributed over screen without fps drop!
This way glxgears acts as awesome "furmark"
So, glxgears is not a benchmark, its a burnout tool xD
you could just run furmark. it runs just fine.

It's interesting to see how the situation seems to be different when going from x86 to ARM when comparing GCC and LLVM. On x86, GCC pretty much wins in all but a few tests. Move to LLVM and the situation flips. ARM is the future for much of the stuff I'll be doing, so this is very good to know.
Throw in MP and LLVM still gets beaten quite badly. Once that support makes it in to LLVM, GCC is going to take quite a beating on ARM--if MP is anything like single threaded performance.

On the ATI/AMD Radeon side, when your hardware is no longer supported by the mainline Catalyst driver (e.g. right now all Radeon X1000 [R500] GPUs and older), you're left to use just the open-source driver stack, which obviously works quite well for many consumers on new and old hardware. AMD doesn't update their legacy Catalyst support for this older hardware in terms of bug-fixes and support for new X.Org / Linux releases. NVIDIA though, however, is continuing to support their vintage hardware via legacy Linux driver updates. This week they've released four new drivers...

It's both sad and gross at the same time. After nearly two weeks of trying to reassure the public that Burger King's products were safe, the fast food giant just announced that an internal investigation confirmed that burgers containing horse meat have been sold in its United Kingdom locations!
Rumors of the contamination were first triggered by the Food Safety Authority of Ireland after it found horse meat in the frozen beef burgers of several major grocery suppliers in Ireland and the UK. The contaminated meat is from the Ireland-based processing company Silvercrest, which is a subsidiary of ABP Food Group.
"These recent revelations of horse meat in European hamburgers are proof that the predatory horse slaughter industry isn't worried about who it victimizes—horses and diners are all at risk," says Nancy Perry, Senior Vice President of ASPCA Government Relations. "In addition to the inherent cruelty of horse slaughter, the toxicity of horse meat is a big problem. We've become increasingly aware of all the drugs routinely given to horses that are dangerous to humans and banned for use in animals raised for human consumption."
Take Action!
This incident happened across the ocean, but horses are at risk of terrifying, inhumane deaths at slaughterhouses right here at home: Horse slaughter proponents are taking drastic steps to re-open horse slaughter plants in the United States! Please visit the ASPCA Advocacy Center to urge U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack to reject any application to operate a horse slaughter facility in the U.S.
Thank you for taking action!
No animal should be slaughtered for human consumption, just think, cows, pigs, and some other domesticated food-animals are mammals, just like you and me. It's sick to think that baby cows and taken from their mothers at birth and are made into veal. Any animal is slaughtered violently and horribly, no matter how you hear otherwise from. I absolutely adore horses and all animals, I'm a vegetarian now and when I accidentally ate lamb, I cried afterward! How about you eat your dog, or cat, or rabbit, or any other pet? It's only an animal, bullshit. I'm going to be a veterinarian when I get out of highschool, so I know animals sometimes need to be put down, but not eaten. Mo is trying to make it legal to eat roadkill, isn't that disgusting? I saw a doe hit near my house and I cried and my dad said "it's probably going to Salvation Army" and I was sickened. My mom understands so when I started crying she wasn't mad at me. No animal should be killed for consumption, it would be like me going and eating your child or pet.

Kidney failure occurs when one or both kidneys aren't able to work normally. The kidneys remove waste in the form of urine from the body. They also balance the water and electrolyte content in the blood by filtering salt and water.
Kidney failure is divided into two categories:
Kidney disease causes the tiny filters in the kidneys called nephrons to lose their ability to filter. Damage to the nephrons may occur suddenly after an injury or poisoning. But, many kidney diseases take years or even decades to cause damage that is noticeable.
The two most commons causes of kidney disease are:
Others causes include:

Factors that increase your chance of developing kidney failure include:
Some kidney diseases begin without any symptoms. As the disease progresses, some of the following symptoms may develop:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your bodily fluids and tissues may be tested. This can be done with:
Images may be taken of your kidneys, bladder, and ureters. This can be done with a renal ultrasound .
Most chronic kidney diseases are not reversible. But, there are treatments that may be used to help preserve as much kidney function as possible. In the case of acute renal failure , treatment focuses on the illness or injury that caused the problem.
Medications used in acute or chronic kidney failure may include:
Talk to your doctor about other medications you are taking. These include prescribed and over-the-counter medications, as well as herbs and supplements. Since the kidneys are no longer working properly, waste can build up in your body.
Dialysis is a process that takes over for the kidneys and filters waste from the blood. This may be done on a short-term basis until kidney function improves or it may be done until you have a kidney transplant .
This may be the right option for some patients. Having a successful transplant depends on many factors, such as what is causing the kidney damage and your overall health.
You can take the following steps to help your kidneys stay healthy longer:
If you are diagnosed with kidney failure, follow your doctor's instructions .
In some cases, you cannot prevent kidney failure. But, there are some steps you can take that will lower your risk:

Transmissions: Repair or Replace?
Deciding whether it is best to repair or replace a transmission when complications occur is no easy matter. The answer is wide-ranging, and one that requires careful consideration of many key factors before deciding upon the best option.
To learn about what is involved in this decision-making process, Fleet Maintenance editor David A. Kolman turned to Eaton Corporation - a major supplier of medium and heavy duty transmissions to the North American trucking industry, and to Allison Transmissions - the world's largest manufacturer of fully-automatic transmissions for medium and heavy duty commercial vehicles, medium and heavy tactical U.S. military vehicles and hybrid-propulsion systems for transit buses.
The following information was provided by Matt E. Colwell, global product strategy manager - vehicle group, for Eaton Corporation.
A good point to begin is defining the differences between repairing and replacing.
- Repairing - This is an attempt to fix the item or component that has failed in the transmission, but may not necessarily fix the root cause of the failure. Depending upon the depth of the repair, this may be the least expensive option.
However, repairing can be more time-consuming than replacing, thereby requiring a vehicle to be off the road not generating income.
When opting for repairing, it is very important to note that the repair will only be as good as the service provider doing the repair. Eaton strongly recommends that the provider has the necessary training and experience and uses only genuine OEM-approved components to ensure the repair is done correctly and to help prevent the problem from reoccurring.
- Replacing - This is essentially the purchase and installation of a new, used or remanufactured transmission. New transmissions, of course, provide best-in-class benefits in the areas of reliability and performance, and at Eaton come with up to a three-year warranty.
Used transmissions present a value-priced option for customers who want to quickly get back on the road, the length of which is determined by the quality of the used transmission purchased.
- Remanufacturing - This is a more thorough process of bringing a used product, or core, back to its intended functionality. Be careful here however, as all remanufactured transmissions are not the same.
Too many re-builders are conducting business these days with pseudo-remanufactured offerings that do not deliver a highly reliable product. These rebuilders repair what they think is the problem, but do not ensure each component is 100-percent ready for the application.
An example of this often occurs with the shift yoke pad thickness on Eaton's Fuller Reman heavy duty transmissions. Many rebuilders only visually inspect the yoke pad thickness for reuse. This can lead to improper shift engagement on the sliding clutch causing shift problems.
Conversely, and like those made by Eaton and other quality transmission suppliers, value-added remanufactured products include 100-percent genuine replacement parts, complete inspection of every component used, use of the proper lubricants and functional dyno testing to ensure the finished unit adheres to all OEM specifications.
Warranty coverage on remanufactured transmissions is also an important consideration. If a rebuilder is unwilling to back up the reliability of its transmission product with a solid warranty, can you really trust it on the road?
Other areas that should be addressed to help determine the best option include vehicle application, desired service life, failure type, total lifecycle cost and noise vibration and harshness (NVH).
In some applications, perhaps with a multiple truck fleet that can have one vehicle down for lengthy repairs, the option of repairing a transmission makes good, practical sense. While a subsequent repair should be expected and may be a nuisance, the disruption could have little impact on profits.
Downtime will, in most cases, impact the profits of an owner operator or fleet engaged in over-the-road hauling. In these applications, a quality "reman" product will typically be the better choice rather than days or weeks of downtime.
Having confidence that the unit will be reliable for the long term is another reman advantage.
For those individuals or fleets planning to operate their vehicles for one or two years, they may not want to invest in replacing the transmission and opt for a repair. That decision may be a sound one.
On the other hand, with more and more fleets extending buying cycles and looking at vehicle service lives of four to five years or more, they may want to consider a reman or other replacement product and the reliability, performance, service and warranty features that are included with the product.
While all failures are bad, some are not as bad as others, and the possible scenarios are countless. That noted, here is a look at a few examples that can influence the repair versus replace decision.
Definitely consider a replacement transmission when a failure occurs in the main case assembly. For example, replace the transmission in a situation where an overdrive gear cracks and runs through the transmission, damaging multiple gear sets.
Also, consider replacement if a cooler blowout occurs, possibly cooking the inside of the transmission.
In both scenarios, the repair can be very time-consuming and there is no guarantee the root cause of the failure will be fixed.
But, you may want to consider repairing for issues along the lines of harsh shifting that may be related to the air system on the transmission. A leak in the system may be occurring, requiring nothing more than replacing the rear seal.
Another minor repair may be related to slow or incomplete shifts caused by oil ingestion in the back box. The remedy may be as simple as replacing the range bar.
It doesn't make good sense to pursue a replacement with these and other minor repairs.
With failure types, it is also important to note that certain transmission problems may not have anything to do with the actual transmission. Excessive driveline vibration, for example, can cause synchronizer pins to break.
You can repair the problem all day long, but the failures will continue to occur until you fix the vibration problem. Swinging into a reman product, of course, will be just as futile. Fixing the vibration will fix the transmission.
Often when repairing a failed transmission, the root cause of the problem is not properly addressed. Damage to additional internal components often results from the initial failure leading to additional repair bills down the road.
Those costs can add up quickly. When that becomes more of the norm than the exception, it may be a good time to consider a replacement transmission.
In the case of Eaton's Fuller Reman transmissions, keep in mind that each transmission has been 100 percent inspected. Crack and leak inspection, bore diameter gauging, bearing replacement and dyno testing are just a few of the precautions Eaton takes to ensure best-in-class reliability. And with the exclusive use of genuine components, a more robust and reliable product is built to generate consistently lower lifecycle costs.
Warning signals during the day-to-day operation of a transmission may also help determine the merits of replacement versus repairing.
For example, a slow shift when shifting between gears may require a simple repair, much like the case with the back box range bar noted earlier. But if there is a lot of vibration and excessive noise coming from the transmission, then a replacement may be the best option.
The vehicle operator plays an integral role in determining just how severe noise, vibration or harshness is in the transmission.
In any event, that information should always be given to a qualified and trained technician or service center so they can determine the cause of the problem and then determine whether it is best to replace or repair.
While the pros and cons of replacing versus repairing are many, the best advice we at Eaton can give is to always deal with an experienced and properly trained service provider. Also, be sure that provider always uses genuine, OEM-approved components.
Doing so, the level of certainty in the uncertain world of replace versus repair is sure to deliver better reliability, performance and lower total lifecycle costs.
Dennis Breedlove, director, global channel development and aftermarket programs for Allison Transmission, provided the following information.
- Repairing - Qualified repair facilities can correct nearly any transmission problem. These types of repairs are done on a "time and material" basis.
In these cases, the technicians diagnose the problem, disassemble the transmission to the extent necessary and then reassemble the unit with needed new parts. As a final step, the unit is dyno and/or road tested.
- Replacing with a remanufactured transmission - Replacing a failed unit with a remanufactured one - also referred to as rebuilt, overhauled or reconditioned - offers customers the advantages of typically faster repairs, as well as the assurance of a quality repair. In this process, it is obviously important to use quality remanufactured products.
Unfortunately, there are many rebuilders that use improperly trained technicians and inferior quality new parts or excessively worn used parts. Such shortcuts typically render a competitively priced transmission, but the unit reliability most often suffers.
In the world of remanufactured transmissions, the old saying of "you get what you pay for" usually applies.
- Replacing with a new or used transmission - Usually, failed transmissions are replaced with new transmissions only if the vehicle itself is of recent vintage.
As with most modern commercial transportation products, transmissions rely on electronic controls for an ever-increasing level of performance. As these products are commonly updated with more and more capable controllers, it is important to match the proper transmission vintage to the vehicle being repaired.
For example, it would usually not make financial sense, nor may it even be possible, to service a 10-year-old vehicle with a new vintage transmission. There would likely be compatibility issues with the integration of the new transmission electronics and those of the old vehicle.
If the transmission problem is relatively minor, repairing the unit is usually the most cost-effective and quickest method to get the vehicle back into revenue service. However, if the extent of a failure is significant, the time necessary to make repairs will obviously increase correspondingly.
At some point replacing a failed unit with a new or remanufactured transmission can often be the fastest and most cost-effective method.
Another consideration when major repairs are needed is with regard to warranties. Often, companies provide a longer and more comprehensive warranty for completely remanufactured transmissions relative to a simple time and material repairs. Of course the extent and cost of the necessary transmission repair is a major factor in this decision process.
Total cost is usually the key factor when deciding on repair options. Total costs include not only the expense of the actual repair, but the cost of lost revenue opportunity when the vehicle is out of service.
Particularly since the economic recession began, customers have become increasingly interested in minimizing fleet downtime. The costs associated with vehicle removal from revenue generating service becomes one of the areas of greatest concern.
Failures that in the past may have been repaired by a transmission shop are often replaced with a remanufactured or new unit as the preferred method to get the vehicle on the road as quickly as possible.
Additionally, the age of a vehicle is usually considered when deciding on repair options. Owners of late model vehicles typically will give greater consideration to quality remanufactured or new replacement units as they have interest in long-term reliability and durability.
On the other hand, owners of late-in-life vehicles often seek an option that will enable the vehicle to return to operation at the lowest price point. Long-term durability of these type repairs is of secondary concern.
Today's commercial transmission are very sophisticated products. For this reason, proper training of technicians is more important than ever. In the case of the Allison authorized service network, factory-approved training is required of all technicians that perform transmission repairs.
Attempts to repair transmissions by under-trained or untrained techicians can lead to excessive downtime, misdiagnosis or can even cause additional problems or catastrophic and expensive failures.
Beyond being a necessity for making accurate repairs, proper training is also required in order to take advantage of key diagnostic capability of Allison products.
Allison authorized service locations offer Trans Health service for recent vintage transmissions. Trans Health is a diagnostic process wherein the computer can be utilized to check and measure key wear components of the transmission without requiring any level of transmission disassembly. The computer can warn of impending clutch failures and thereby enable customers to schedule repairs on a more convenient basis.
What's more, replacing worn components before an actual failure occurs greatly reduces the total expense to the customer. Such a pre-emptive repair enables the worn part to be inspected and replaced as necessary, before it fails and causes a chain reaction of neighboring part failures.
In the repair process, an accurate diagnosis is most critical in making proper fixes, as well as minimizing downtime. For dealing in the complex world of electronic controls, Allison has created diagnostic tools to assist in determining the root cause of problems.
The need for proper tooling and corresponding training is evident when considering situations wherein inadequately equipped or trained technicians misread the symptom and thereby waste time and add expense by pursuing false corrections.
For example, symptoms may manifest as improper transmission shifting, when in reality the problem is not an internal transmission issue at all but rather a problem caused by faulty vehicle wiring, a cooling system issue or possibly another powertrain component control system malfunction. Very often, only knowledgeable and properly equipped technicians can pinpoint and correct the true cause of problems, and do so in a timely fashion.
Equally important for making quality repairs is the need to use quality parts. At authorized Allison service locations, only genuine Allison parts are used for repairs.
In Allison's opinion, non-genuine parts often fail prematurely and in doing so, can cause expensive secondary damage. Any upfront cost savings attained through the use of inferior parts quickly disappears when a failure is compounded or a repeat failure occurs.
From simple repairs to complete transmission replacement, the vital elements in quality service are the same today as they have always been, but likely to a higher degree than ever before. Quality repairs are the result of proper training, proper tooling and quality replacement parts.
The combination of these service elements will insure long-lasting and cost effective repairs.
Bendix increases focus on remanufacturing
Bendix Commercial Vehicle Systems has launched a new business unit to focus on and expand its remanufacturing output.
Each Bendix business unit had been responsible for both its original equipment and aftermarket products. Now, the new business unit consolidates all remanufacturing efforts as part of the company's aftermarket business.
Bendix develops and supplies leading-edge active safety technologies, air brake charging and control systems and components under the Bendix brand name for medium and heavy duty trucks, tractors, trailers, buses and other commercial vehicles throughout North America.
Steve Mance, Bendix vice president and general manager of the Charging group, says reasons for establishing the new unit include offering buyers lower-priced alternatives to new parts and ensuring long-term and peak-demand product availability.
"We can remanufacture products that went out of OE production as many as 30 or 40 years ago," he says. "And in peak OE years, we can ensure product availability when other manufacturers are out of capacity because we're producing remanufactured parts."
While the lower cost of a remanufactured part compared with a new part often appeals to end users, Mance points out that remanufactured parts also have a warranty advantage over used parts.
"We follow the same robust release process as an OE product, so we're testing and remanufacturing to the most current OE specifications," he explains. "Because of that, we are able to guarantee the remanufactured part for the same period of time as the OE product warranty."
Growth in the remanufacturing industry reflects its appeal. Mance notes that remanufacturing for Class 6, 7 and 8 trucks and trailers in North America was a $3.1 billion market in 2010, and that is expected to grow to $4 billion by 2015.
The Bendix remanufacturing unit also enables the company to bring to market remanufactured components originally manufactured by other brands. Since not all product cores make their way back to their original manufacturer, Bendix engineers can now use parts from those product cores to bring remanufactured parts as close as possible to their OE specifications.
He says Bendix plans to build its remanufacturing business not only by branching out into products beyond braking systems, such as powertrain components, but by sharing its remanufacturing strategy with its parent company, Knorr-Bremse, a worldwide producer of pneumatic, hydraulic and electronic braking systems and chassis management systems for commercial vehicles.

However, none have focused on post-partum weight loss. Now that Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has become extremely popular for fertility, gestational diseases, and labor induction; practitioners have the opportunity to follow-up with these same patients for post-partum healthcare.

Hola! Timmy here -- catch me for the work-release program, or the bathroom. Either way, lots of loud noises will be comin' at ya! Work starts at 10 a.m. and I go till 2 p.m. with your "Naughty Nooner" at 12:30ish!
A little about me: You probably know me… even if you don't. Let's just say whenever you've had the feeling that you were being watched… no that wasn't Jesus. IT WAS ME!
I'm a 5-foot-9 white boy born a poor albino immigrant. Kicked out of ninja school due to being afraid of the dark. I learned the art of making people laugh, still continue to perfect it. I also occasionally wonder what's for dinner.
When I'm not rockin' Yakima (for over 15 years) you can find me either playin' Lego & Batman games on XBox 360 or makin' people laugh by doing improv comedy with Manic Thunder at The Laugh Lounge.

WYOMING SPEEDWAY JULY 4th SIZZLING FIREWORKS FOR: EVANS, PANGRAZIO, AND VERWYS AND PYROTECHNICS FOR EVERYONE!
By: Elliott Prentice
PERRY N.Y...There was another grand July 4th celebration at Wyoming County International Speedway with Americas most traditional music playing as a wall of fire shot 100s of feet into the air from the tail pipes of two hot rods facing each other. At the same time there was a spectacular fireworks display in the sky that continued for over half an hour.
Joe Evans has won the W.C.I.S., S.S.T. features for two weeks in a row now. A huge catastrophic jam up on lap six brought out the second caution when over half of the SST field crashed going down the back stretch. Most of the cars were forced pit side. Some drivers were able to pit and return to the race but others were done for the night. Evans carefully started working on Bradshaw's lead No.00 from lap eight until lap eleven when Evans No.91 car slipped past on the inside and then held the lead for the remainder of the exciting fast thirty lap S.S.T. July 4th feature.
Tony Pangrazio stood proud and tall at the start finish line after winning his well deserved overdue feature Super Stock race in his No.41car. Everyone from everywhere offered their congratulations and to take their turn to give Tony a handshake.
When the green was dropped after the first caution on lap three, Tony moved right up into second position from having started fourth. After trying every which way to get around Todd Stone's No.28, he was able to move into first on lap eight where he stayed for the remainder of the race.
Multi time Wasp 4cyl, WCIS past Champion Bill Verwys is back winning another feature this week in his No.8 car. After riding in the middle of three cars wide right through several laps, Bill worked his car hard to get into first on lap eight were he stayed clearly ahead until the checkered on lap twenty. Bill again flashed his now standard but real cool fast four wheel corner drifts. In the winner's interview Bill said, "Tonight my right rear tire was replaced three times, I worked real hard driving but I'm so happy I got the win!"

I agree! I personally HATE the smell of playdoh, but over Christmas break I let the kids get out the huge box of playdoh stuff they have gotten as gifts and I put aside until my youngest was old enough not to eat it! It makes a huge mess, but the kids love it! A playdoh kit would be great!

previous: Organon aphorisms § 19 - 29 next: Organon aphorisms § 35 - 42
--- 30 Organon aphorism ---
[15] The short duration of the action of the artificial morbific forces, which we term medicines, makes it possible that, although they are stronger than the natural diseases, they can yet be much more easily overcome by the vital force than can the weaker natural diseases, which, solely in consequence of the longer, generally lifelong, duration of their action (psora, syphilis, sycosis), can never be vanquished and extinguished by it alone, until the physician affects the vital force in a stronger manner by an agent that produces a disease very similar, but stronger, to wit a homeopathic medicine. The cures of diseases of many years' duration (§ 46), by the occurrence of smallpox and measles (both of which run a course of only a few weeks), are processes of a similar character.
--- 31 Organon aphorism ---
[16] When I call disease a DERANGEMENT of man's state of health, I am far from wishing thereby to give a HYPERPHYSICAL explanation of the internal nature of diseases generally, or of any case of disease in particular. It is only intended by this expression to intimate, what it can be proved diseases are NOT and CANNOT BE, that they are not mechanical or chemical alterations of the material substance of the body, and not dependent on a material morbific substance, but that they are merely spirit-like (conceptual) dynamic derangements of the life.
--- 33 Organon aphorism ---
[17] A striking fact in corroboration of this is, that whilst previously to the year 1801, when the smooth scarlatina of Sydenham still occasionally prevailed epidemically among children, it attacked without exception all children who had escaped it in a former epidemic; in a similar epidemic which I witnessed in Konigslutter, on the contrary, ALL the children who took in time a very small dose of belladonna remained unaffected by this highly infectious infantile disease. If medicines can protect from a disease that is raging around, they must possess a vastly superior power of affecting our vital force.
