LISBON, PORTUGAL, September 16, 2011 (Press-News.org) iPads, iPhones and iPods include great video capabilities. But most movies we come across with (in email or on the Internet) aren't in Apple's supported formats - MPEG4/H264
Users have two possible solutions. Either buying the video files directly from the iTunes store, or going through the process of converting each video and then sync it with iTunes.
The new It's playing app adds the ability to play any video, in almost any format (flv, avi, mkv, ogg, wmv, amongst 19 others) in Apple's iOS.
Video transfer between your computer and your "iDevice" is quite simple: just drag and drop the file to iTunes. It's Playing also enables users to open videos that reach them by email, dropbox or surfing the web.
But, It's Playing real breakthrough is Addition's tailor-made technology - AdditionFlow .
The decoding and presentation of the video file in real time is one of the most complex tasks computers have to process nowadays. Even on a powerful desktop we sometimes experience delays in the decoding of video frames . This originates a pause in the video, a de-synchronization with the sound or both.
AdditionFlow was developed as an extremely optimized process which reduces the effects of pause and de-synchronization to a minimum.
According to Diogo Vitorino, Addition's CEO: "The new It's Playing is a cutting edge software that adds value to Apple's iDevices. Even amongst 500.000 apps, I believe it will stand out and make a difference to many users".
As of September 13th, and after Apple's validation, It's Playing 2.0 will be available in App Stores all around the world for 1,58EUR or $1.99.

ABOUT ADDITION
Addition is a Portuguese software development company.
Following its startup in 1998, it launched a spreadsheet for the Palm mobile platform, named Addition4Palm. This application allowed its users to open and edit excel files on their Palm Pilots.
In 2008, following Apple iPhone's launch Addition introduced iPhoneModem, a globally demanded app that allowed one or several computers to share the iPhone's network connection and access the web.
Event being a payed app costing $9.99 and only available to jail broken iPhones it is a proven commercial success having passed the 1 million install threshold.
In 2011, Addition adopts the iPad. In April launched the "I'm downloading" app which allows you to download any file and manage it on the iPad. And now "It's Playing 2.0" for iPad, iPod and iPod Touch.

Ethnicity-specific reference genomes improve genetic risk assessment using whole-genome sequencing
2011-09-16
A group of scientists, based primarily at Stanford University School of Medicine, have introduced ethnicity-specific reference genome sequences in a study to be published in the open-access journal PLoS Genetics on September 15th. Their utility was demonstrated in analyzing the genomes of a four-person family and following the flow of genes, in particular those associated with disease risk, from one generation to the next.
The researchers augmented the widely-used human reference genome, the result of the Human Genome Project. This reference genome lacks the most common ...

Genomic catastrophe causes developmental delay, cognitive disorders
2011-09-16
HOUSTON -- (Sept. 16, 2011) – Using a diversity of DNA sequencing and human genome analytic techniques, researchers led by Baylor College of Medicine have identified some cases of developmental delay or cognitive disorders associated with a sudden chromosomal catastrophe that occurred early in development, perhaps during cell division when DNA is replicated.
In a report in the journal Cell, Dr. Weimin Bi, assistant professor of molecular and human genetics, Dr. James R.Lupski, vice chair of molecular and human genetics, both at BCM, first author Pengfei Liu, a graduate ...
Mom, dad and kids undergo novel genome analyses for medical risks in new Stanford study
2011-09-16
STANFORD, Calif. — Stanford University School of Medicine researchers have predicted the inherited health risks of a four-person family by analyzing their whole genome sequences. With the DNA sequences of both parents and children, the team was able to better check for sequencing errors and more accurately predict how individual genetic variants affect each family member's risk for disease.
The project improved computational tools that provide medical interpretation of genomes, which includes disease-risk prediction and how an individual would respond to common medications. ...

AsiaRooms.com - Witness Natural Wonder of Naga Fireballs in Thailand
2011-09-16
The Nong Khai region of Thailand will see the occurrence of a mysterious phenomenon known as the Naga Fireballs next month.
Expected to take place between October 11th and 12th this year, the unusual natural event sees a series of ruby-coloured orbs of light emerging from the Mekong River, floating silently into the air before disappearing into the night sky.
Usually occurring between 18:00 and 21:00 local time, as many as 19 fireballs at a time can linger in the air for up to eight seconds, with almost 3,500 globes having been counted in 1999.
Debate rages ...
Alcohol metabolism causes DNA damage and triggers a breast cancer-related DNA damage response

Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research
Alcohol metabolism causes DNA damage and triggers a breast cancer-related DNA damage response
Alcohol is known to be carcinogenic to humans in the upper aerodigestive tract, liver, colorectum, and the female breast. Evidence suggests that acetaldehyde, the primary metabolite of alcohol, plays a major role in alcohol-related esophageal cancer. A new study using human cells has established linkages between alcohol metabolism and acetaldehyde-DNA damage that may have implications for breast and liver cancers.
Results will ...
