select main movie from the left on the start screen. it will let you pick exactly what you want to extract. it usually selects the right movie track for you, then you select the sound and caption tracks to use.

I can't seem to find this option.

If you're using the stock browser go to the icon in the top right corner to locate settings. If using Dolphin use the setting icon at bottom left select 'more' then 'settings'then 'Dolphin settings' then 'useragent' and click 'desktop'

I have attached a screen shot and I dont see what you are talking about. The movie here is selected at the top of the screen. Does this look like what you have?

hey all, whilst in the default browser, is there a shortcut for toggling between opened browser tabs using the keyboard? cheers!

sry for the late reply, you have to select dvd/blu ray copy. The ripper or video converter options won't allow you to change anything. Those are also trial features so you won't be able to use them for long without paying. The copy sections are what you want. They will give you an unencrypted folder for the movies, then you can use your own video converter. I recommend handbrake.

hey guys (an gals) when getting the notifications up using

Menu + N, is there a keyboard combo to close it down? the back key doesnt work now does the other buttons for some reason...

Thanks. I did figure out how to change the type of audio that was copied. At the bottom of the screen there is a profile listed and an edit button next to it. By clicking the edit button I was able to change the audio from 5.3 to stereo. The sound on the recordings is now okay. Thanks again for your help.

Ooooh...just use the tab key to activate the highlight and use the arrow keys to select the tab you want

I've seen this listed in other threads but to keep your browser from going to mobile sites go to settings then Advanced then User Agent String and select Desktop. When I had Tablet selected it would constantly switch to mobile versions.

Just an aside, the facebook app absolutely stinks compared to the full web site which works perfectly for me.

It may be worth adding that personally on my tablet I only found the "advanced" option once a webpage was open in the top right corner and not in "settings" generally.

Cheers.

On the TF keyboard dock:

shift + backspace = del

ahhh...and nooooo...

he means head into the default browser, INSIDE that app, menu, settings, advanced.

thats the path you want, not under the general OS settings.

could have looked a few steps up and seen the solution?

Open up the Default web browser -> menu -> settings -> advanced -> Under 'Page content settings' - User Agent String -> Desktop

Is there any kind of decent LastPass or password manager solution? I hate remembering all my passwords.

Keepass works real well when combined with dropbox. Roboform is good as well. I've been using roboform on my pc's for about 10 years and it's excellent

Anybody know of a good music player for the Transformer? I have used Power Amp on my phone and it's great...but doesn't work with the Transformer for now...thanks

we got our TF from Staples in Colliers Wood, London. had seen the tablet at Currys previously but no keyboard although we could have bought them both on line, but being the types to try before we buy we wanted to see both parts and try them out for ourselves before committing to buy. Was watching and waiting to see who would have both and they seem to be the first one out there to get both the tablet and the keyboard. Happy for us to play with them before we decided, although I am convinced my husband's mind was made up to buy before we got there anyway
Absolutely no regrets with the purchase.

 

[androidpal]

so, looking for a good password keeper and there are so many out there. keepass seems to pop up regularly. i am a dropbox user so want something that will sit comfortably there also (or do i need this anyway?). would love a poll, keepass or roboform (or other comparable product)
also, just how safe is the encryption? feels a bit counterintuitive to record all your passwords in one place (fighting the paranoia).

Is there a way to "wake up" the display while docked, with the keyboard? I've pretty much pressed every key available and it seems like the button on the table itself needs to be pressed?

There's an option under settings - screen. Check if the mobiledock powersave is enabled.
