Unable to remove customer/subscription

When trying to remove a customer or subscription, you may get this error message in Plesk: Unable to find service node for web service on domain with id=xxx This was supposed to be fixed in 10.4.4 MU #13 but isn’t in all cases.

Playing downloaded H.264 content on an unjailbroken Apple TV 2

H.264 content out there in the wild is often produced using the open source x264 encoding library. This article focuses on playing that content back on your Apple TV 2 in an unjailbroken state. This article presumes you have purchased legal copies of the movies you’ve downloaded on DVD or Blu-Ray and are too lazy to rip them yourself, or are unable to do so due to hardware/time constraints. The Apple TV 2 is not able to playback .mkv files, so we are going to re-wrap the video and audio tracks into an .m4v container which the ATV can playback.
