    <p><em>First of all: This question is not directly programming related. However, the problem only exists for developers, so I'm trying to find an answer here anyways since there are maybe other people on this community who already solved the problem.</em></p> <p>I want to record the screen of the iPad 2 to be able to create demo videos of an app.</p> <p>Since I'm using motion data, I cannot use the simulator to create the video and have to use the actual iPad itself.</p> <p>I've seen various websites where different methods were discussed.</p> <ul> <li><p><a href="http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_ipad/family/ipad/select" rel="noreferrer">iPad 2</a> &lt;==> <a href="http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC953ZM/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE" rel="noreferrer">Apple Digital AV Adapter</a> &lt;==> <a href="http://store.apple.com/us/product/TP150LL/A" rel="noreferrer">Blackmagic Design Intensity Pro</a> &lt;==> Playback software &lt;==> <a href="http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.html" rel="noreferrer">TechSmith Camtasia screen recorder</a> on the playback software to circumvent the HDCP flag</p></li> <li><p>iPad 2 &lt;==> <a href="http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC552ZM/B?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE" rel="noreferrer">Apple VGA Adapter</a> &lt;==> <a href="http://www.epiphan.com/products/frame-grabbers/vga2usb/" rel="noreferrer">VGA2USB</a> &lt;==> Recording software</p></li> <li><p>...</p></li> </ul> <p>Everyone seems to have his own hacky solution to this problem. </p> <p>My setup is the following:</p> <ul> <li>iPad 2 (without Jailbreak)</li> <li><a href="http://www.apple.com/macmini/server/" rel="noreferrer">Apple Mac mini with Lion Server</a></li> <li>PC with non-HDCP compliant main board</li> <li>Non-HDCP compliant displays</li> </ul> <p>It doesn't matter whether the recording has to be on the mac or on the PC.</p> <p>My questions:</p> <ul> <li>Is it possible to disable the HDCP flag programmatically from within the application itself?</li> <li>HDMI offers a better quality than VGA. Will the first method I've listed work with my setup although I don't have a full HDCP chain?</li> <li><p>What about the <a href="http://www.blackmagic-design.com/products/intensity/" rel="noreferrer">Intensity Extreme</a> box? Can I use it and then connect to the Thunderbolt port of the mac mini and record from there? </p> <p>Is the Thunderbolt port of the mac mini bidirectional and is also suited for capturing? Is the mac mini HDCP compliant? If it does not work due to my screens not being HDCP compliant, will it work if I start the recording software, then disconnect the screens? Will it work if I use an iPad 2 over VNC as a screen since it has to be HDCP compliant if it sends HDCP streams?</p></li> <li>If I have to fall back to the VGA solution: Will the VGA adapter mirror everything what's showing on the iPad 2 screen or do I have to program a special presentation mode which sends everything to the VGA cable instead of the iPad screen? Will the proposed setup using VGA2USB be qualitatively high or would you recommend other tools?</li> <li>What about the <a href="http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC748ZM/A?fnode=MTc0MjU4NjE" rel="noreferrer">Apple Composite AV Cable</a>? Maybe another approach?</li> </ul>

    1. COAs a workaround, you could change your app to have a special mode for recording motion, run it on the device and then play back those motion events in the simulator by faking the appropriate calls.

    2. COThere are also parts where camera is involved, so that is not a solution because it is too cumbersome.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
