<0> morning
<1> all went well last night i trust :)
<0> ya
<1> excellent
<1> man i had the best sleep last night, with all this hot weather we've been waking up with little ants in the bed
<0> the bad part.... she already has a BF... but that might change :)
<0> damm that ****s
<0> shiznix: where do you live ?
<1> so vacuumed, let off a bug bomb + sealed all the gaps along the architraves
<1> MrEcho: south Australia
<0> ohh ya thats right
<0> ants a big issue down there?
<2> bitrot: will you buy this for me? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JXE8YC/ref=amb_link_4081152_5/104-1120080-4117542
<0> here in soCali house ants are an issue
<3> it's australia, the country which is actively hostile towards humans
<1> they can be when it's over 40C, they migrate inside
<1> Two9A: you stfu or i'll set my stingray onto you :p
<0> lol
<1> Genia4: ffmpeg is the project that develops the libavcodec/libavformat libraries, mplayer/mencoder is a wrapper for this library but it also has extra support for the proprietary codecs through winelib and windows codec .dlls
<4> hi
<1> as well as some subtitling and extra graphics filters such as scaling/de-interlacing
<1> hey there MrStabby
<5> my normal users cant access sound devices, i suspect its hal/dbus setting permissions 0660, where do i fix this, or look elsewhere?
<0> 4 GLSA's just came out..
<1> Genia4: Transcode is similar to mencoder in it's purpose, except that it can use either ffmpeg, mplayer or mpeg2enc (another encoder that comes with mjpegtools) to do it's encoding
<1> and mencoder are a couple of light years behind when it comes to encoding MPEG output, as they put all their eggs in the AVI basket (that's slowly changing now because of DVD)
<0> just as in within 60min
<1> kraetzja: put your users in the 'audio' group
<5> already done, just realized i didnt restart hald though
<0> Opera: Two remote code execution vulnerabilities hehe
<4> you know
<4> i'm beginning to think that the dual 24" dell monitors is a bit much
<4> i need a larger desk
<0> give me one
<6> sup fools
<0> nutn much
<7> shiznix: hmm, thanks
<6> im so glad its friday...
<4> http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m292/akredhat/dual24s.jpg
<4> actually getting a headache
<6> heheh
<6> little close to the fireplace, doncha think?
<4> i don't use it
<4> the computers keep it warm enough :)
<8> wow stabby
<8> is that even considered a desk ?
<8> ;)
<9> CannedBar: yes i will sweety
<4> pauzed: it was like 40 bucks at walmart
<9> ILL CUT U FOO
<0> MrStabby: angle them more
<8> what do you think of your dells?
<4> i have to mail the one back (on the left)
<4> the one on the right is the RMA
<7> RMA = ?
<8> out of the box rma?
<8> genia: broken and under warranty
<4> return to manufacturer agreement
<4> i found one dead pixel
<4> so they rma'd a new one
<7> wait, return the left and right is broken?
<8> nice stabby
<4> Genia4: no, the right is the replacement
<8> you -just- bought it, then?
<4> yeah
<8> cause i know within 30 days, dell is good about that ****
<10> dell replaces for 1 dead pixel?
<4> Dawai: they do when i call
<10> interesting
<8> dawai: it depends on woh you get
<8> i dont think they usually do, but, if you talk to the rep right, you can
<7> MrStabby: got the same monitor, sent it to dell because of one dead pixel
<7> and the one I sent was a replacement that was sent to me also for 1 dead pixel
<8> just like if stabby complains a bit, he might get a few dollars back heh
<7> I hope the 3rd one is going to be fine.
<4> oh man i'd be pissed
<7> kinda annoying having to send them back a new monitor.
<4> i have to go over this one real quick
<4> brb
<8> you guys bought these through business, right?
<7> Shipping is on them though, I think they lose more.
<7> pauzed: no.
<8> cause business cust care treats you better than home
<4> yes
<8> <-- used to work for dell
<7> I just call the right places :)
<4> pauzed: i buy mine through 'business'
<4> and i always get an american on the other end
<4> its great
<8> yerp stab
<8> home cust care + tech gets outsourced
<8> but business stays state side
<8> its lawl
<7> but yeah, the fact they replace for one dead pixel is nice.
<8> dell just wants customers happy
<8> i used to be a dell manager
<7> They probably sell those returned monitors anyway
<8> it was cool the amount of free stuff i gave away
<7> 90% of people won't notice one pixel.
<8> genia: they do, as refurb
<4> Genia4: yeah i agree
<8> they wont even touch the monitor
<8> they just sell as refurb haha
<4> but this one is ****ing bright ***
<7> well, the first replacement they sent me was refurb.
<7> So when I returned that, I attached an angry letter saying I don't want refurb.
<7> Wonder what I'll get this time :)
<1> Genia4: you'll only lose out with mencoder if you want to do extra processing on the file such as convert the audio track to 5.1 surround, mencoded mpegs do not demux then remux very well
<8> heh, probably refurb again ;p
<1> Genia4: in fact, they break
<7> shiznix: yes, I've read about that.
<7> pauzed: I know, but I also said that I will return a monitor with one dead pixel again and again.
<1> Genia4: if all you are looking at is a solution to get your PC video files onto DVD, check here ->
<1> http://mightylegends.org/downloads/any2dvd-0.34.sh
<1> http://mightylegends.org/downloads/any2vob-0.34.sh
<7> pauzed: I even was nice enough and took a photo of the dead pixel. printed and attached to the letter.
<7> It was a red subpixel, not totally dead, about 30% lit.
<8> hahah
<7> I noticed it from sitting distance, not by pixell peeping.
<7> shiznix: what about using mencoder to convert audio frequency and channel count, and mp3->ac3 and whatever?
<4> hhow coulkd you tell it was a refurb
<1> Genia4: it uses the best possible tools (a combination of ffmpeg/transcode/mplayer) and settings to simplify encoding any format to DVD w/menus (actually looking for more NTSC testers on this one, but any testing is good)
<7> shiznix: oh, forgot you pasted a link.
<7> MrStabby: naive method - fingerprints.
<1> Genia4: yes, mencoder can do that - but will always downmix to stereo
<7> shiznix: I want to convert a bunch of avi files to dvd's. Multiple files per dvd (don't want 9000kbit, just something that is visually reasonable). Some have 5.1 audio, some don't, what should I do?
<7> MrStabby: which revision is that btw? 3 or 4?
<4> hm
<4> how do i check
<4> A03
<6> mmmmmm i love seeing CMakeLists.txt all over the kde source...
<7> back side of the monitor, top right
<6> means it has the potential to build in windows for me :D
<1> Genia4: well i'm obviously biased, but i'd say give those two scripts a try - they'll preserve 5.1 surround and optionally convert to 5.1 surround for your stereo files also
<4> my sticker is on the bottom back
<7> shiznix: why 2 scripts?
<7> MrStabby: that's good.
<4> my original one was rev a03 too
<4> no dead pixels on this one
<4> YAY
<7> 03 and 04 are identical except for some connection bug that was fixed in 04
<4> brb time to box this bitch up
<7> 00->-1 and 01->02 were big changes, 02->03 was also a change, but not in image quality
<1> Genia4: any2vob encodes the files to DVD format, any2dvd creates the DVD menus and creates the .iso or burns straight to disc
<7> oh, I didn't notice they were 2 files.
<6> any2vob is god
