...though FWIW, I just posted the preceding msg at 8 a.m. on 13 July Australian EST, but it came up (immediately) as 1:24 pm on 12 July (GMT?) In other words, the messages post immediately (so no 'conspiracy' there), but it seems (amusingly) that Ulead's server clock is out by quite a few hours. I note the small print below right of these messages that 'All times are GMT - 8 hours' (not sure why they chose that since Ulead's HQ are in Taiwan). But by my admittedly shaky calculations, my msg should have showed 3 pm on 12 July if the clock was accurate.

Ken,

If you go into Profile at top of page you can adjust the the Timezone accordingly. I have mine set to 10 Hours ahead of GMT as they are on daylite saving at present. I am 30 mins behind you.

However, while the date is correct for my posting the time of posting is showing 10 mins before I submit it.

David :D
That'll do me nicely lad
Aye, but that's no how you make porridge Jimmy

Thanks for that David!! :D I haven't had time to work it all out, but my first answer was posted either 24 minutes after, or 36 minutes before I actually posted it...

ADDENDUM: and now, looking at this post, it seems to have occuured the 36 minutes before!!!

Hi

I have my profile set to GMT + 2 hrs.

That setting seems to be the closest to the real time that i can get.

I am sending this post at 10:26 am
I assume that in Australia you would see the time sent as your time ie 10:26 pm ( assuming 12 hours difference)

:D

22 minutes out.

Lets hope the 'Shuttle' is not using the same clock.

You get that effect -- things happening before they happen -- when you're moving really fast.

We're to be congratulated.

may I then send you a few long VS9 projects, so you could render them at 8264KB variable, two-pass, non-square pixels, 100% quality and send the MPG back before reading the mail?
It would relieve my old 2800MHz CPU.

I think we need Lt commander Data of STNG to sort this one out........ :lol:
Must be something to do with time warping etc.

Maybe......just maybe............we could configure a Tachyon pulse on the high E.M bandwidth to......well you guys know how the rest goes in Star Trek
