TextMate has some really cool features including the create TODO:, FIXME: and CHANGED: list. Have you ever had an application in development and were working on a block of code then had to go away or go work on another file, but wanted to remember that you still had to go back and finished that block of code? Or have you ever wanted to develop parts of your code further later down the road? Or have you ever scripted something that didn’t work right but got frusturated and left it for a while only to try and go back to it but forgot where it was? Or have you ever worked with multiple people on the same application and wanted to tell them all the changes you made? (more…)

iDVD bug – App hangs when authoring audio
I just used iDVD for the first time in a long time on my new MacBook Pro (I’m a Final Cut, DVD Studio Pro guy). I was authoring a fairly large video (about 90min), with audio, motion menus, and audio menus. Everything went fine until It started to author the audio from the video. As soon as it started it hung up and I got the death ball. Well it’s apparently just a bug so I left it for a while and it finally went through. Apparently a ton of others have been having the same problem. Hope this helps someone out.
