Understanding system.log

Hi, the "Invalid colorspace type " is from most likely a malformed header in a Graphic, or the part of the OS that interprets it.

Are you using iTunes Cover Art SS, or which one?

Long thread about it...

Great news, thanks! 🙂

hi i'm having a similar problem. my stems from the game world of warcraft. in game, the symptoms manifest as such:

1) choppy audio for a couple seconds
2) game freezes for a couple seconds
3) game resumes but drops from 30 frames per second to 5 frames per second (sometimes this is accompanied by a loss of internet connectivity which cannot be re-established until restarting the macbook pro)
4) Normal FPS is established after 5-8 minutes
5) Cycle repeats at 5-8 minute intervals

The system.log associated with this is as follows:

Hi again,

Did you see the post with the Green Solved award star?

yes i did.. but that link seems to apply to itunes and the coverflow feature.. itunes is not on when im running wow and i think the graphic error is wow related not itunes related. Unless i'm missing something? please clarify.
