Comments:

<Mouring> at last MacOSX
<Sobh_> MacOS X? why would they want sudo
<Mr_You> cause its unix?
<Sobh_> yea but still
<Sobh_> blocking it ****s
<Mr_You> blocking what?
<pbug> root login
<Mr_You> requiring sudo to su is the proper way.
<Sobh_> sudo only works if you are a sudouser?
<Mr_You> root login bad.
<Mr_You> err console/gui login, IMO.
<Mr_You> or ssh
<Sobh_> have you ever even ran visudo?
<pbug> wait.. man visudo.. read.. switch terms.. say "yeah I have"
<Sobh_> :P
<pbug> one thing I don't like about the sudoers file is the aliases.. although they are somewhat helpful to make the file clearer
<Sobh_> Looking for someone who's done any video editing on linux? I have some TS streams that I want to remove commercials from then write out to a dvd...
<Sobh_> avidemux keeps giving me a HUGE shift in audio/video sync
<Sobh_> :/
<Figz> I use mplayer for that..
<Figz> you run through the show once with the -edlout option and mark the commercials
<Figz> then you supply the .edl file to mencoder, and it skips the marked portions
<Sobh_> Alright
<Figz> there are also tools you can get that look at the scene change rate and audio gain to try and guess when a commercial break starts
<Sobh_> ever played with mencoder?
<Figz> I've meant to investigate them, but haven't gotten around to it..
<Sobh_> how to mark the commercials?
<Sobh_> nd can you skip through or do you have to watch it normal
<Figz> I know a little.. in particular the default mpeg4 codec is really painful to windows users.
<Figz> you can skip along
<Figz> you skip forward or back, and when a commercial break starts you hit "i"
<Figz> and that timestamp gets written to your .edl file
<Sobh_> I ***ume it works in gmplayer as well?
<Figz> you then manually edit the .edl file to make everything perfect, and finally supply it to mencoder
<Figz> no idea
<Sobh_> ok
<Sobh_> that sounds wonderful
<Sobh_> cos I have the mencoder line to re-encode the TS stream as a dvd
<Figz> right
<Figz> so all you need is the .edl file
<Sobh_> too bad you cant get the stream digital. afaik when the commercials start on certain channels (tv) they have a marker
<Figz> or they used to
<Figz> they just use a couple black frames now, afaik.. if that
<Sobh_> is there no audio-marker for the start of the commercials?
<Figz> ie, they make it hard for simple hardware tools to blank commercials
<Figz> commercials usually turn up the average audio levels
<Sobh_> (anyway. if you dont do batch conversions its hardly worth the effort)
<Mr_You> yeah compression is needed, sadly.
<Figz> supposedly they're not allowed to crank up the gain.. but it amounts to the same thing
<Sobh_> afaik, they are required to do that here (or at least there are guidelines)
<Sobh_> how would you edit it out based on that tho? Or what would you use?
<Mr_You> I'm about to get a new stereo and I dunno if it has audio compression.
<Figz> you use a tool that analyses the audio track looking for the average levels to be higher than typical for television
<Mr_You> a compressor/limiter keeps the audio level.
<Mr_You> its common in bands/recording studios/clubs, etc.
<Figz> you combine that with scenes that are changing every 2-10s, and you get a spam***asin-like protocol for weighing how likely the recording is to be playing a commercial
<Sobh_> Do you guys know of any available tools that do this?
<Mr_You> I'd rather have 30 second skip like my TiVo.
<Mr_You> that do what?
<Figz> well everything does that
<Figz> I've got an old tv/remote with a 30s tv skipper.. in pre tivo land you just watched something else for 2:30 :P
<Mr_You> you can buy audio compressors, probably pretty cheap too. might check behringer for a cheap one.
<Mr_You> TimeWarner DVR doesn't do 30 second skip.
<Mr_You> the TimeWarner DVR ****s compared to TiVo.
<Figz> that's like most of the point of pvrs.. silly..
<Figz> I guess they make too much money from commercials themselves.. didn't want to support the trend to ignoring them.
<Mr_You> well the TiVo 30 second skip is hidden.
<Sobh_> Is there any chance anyone have a good manual for SSH and Keys?
<Figz> it's dead simple
<Sobh_> I need to figure out how to get insight manager to connect to my deb box too
<Figz> just goodle for "ssh-keygen"
<Sobh_> alright, thank you (again)
<Sobh_> hehe. Anyone see the Microsoft version of Linux yet?
<pbug> what would M$ possibly want to do with linux?
<m10> huh ?
<m10> Sobh_, urls ?
<Sobh_> was a joke
<Sobh_> :)
<m10> I know! I know! - M$ is preparing to clean up their failure with vitsa!
<Sobh_> hehe
<pbug> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitro_Hacker
<pbug> heh, interesting different twist on the word hacker
<DocRadium> wonder what prebubescent pimple head just edited that article
<pbug> heh
<DocRadium> prepubescent, event.
<Mouring> "you have to put the magic key..." <sighs> Steve.. Steve..
<Mouring> If I wanted to use a magic key I wouldn't pick "1" was the key.
<Mouring> sounds likes someone did a if (var == 1) instead of if (lencheck(var) == 1)
<Sobh_> ?
<kneer0x> hey mouring.
<kneer0x> setzer had such horrible powers in FF :(
<kneer0x> but he was so cool
<Mouring> erm?
<Mouring> hey kneer.
<DocRadium> wtf
<DocRadium> who the hell is this nitro
<DocRadium> and why are he and his buddies fluffing himself on wikipedia
<pbug> he breathes nitrogen instead of oxygen, hence his name
<Rienzilla> ahhh
<DocRadium> ah.
<Rienzilla> and hes an idiot? :)
<DocRadium> well they should pick a different forum
<DocRadium> rather than cluttering wikipedia
<Sobh_> how come he's listed there tho
<Mouring> hmm.. breathing nitro is good.. it makes you feel funny and light headed.=-)
<DocRadium> anyone can create an article
<Sobh_> he's pretty ****ed up then
<Yashcli> 14yo
<Yashcli> hax0r
<Sobh_> Mouring where are you from if i may ask?
<Sobh_> and what does 'anata wa kurohyou-hime desu ka' mean?
<Sobh_> :)
<m10> can you .. um something
<Sobh_> ok
<Sobh_> lol
<pbug> sobh: he's in a bunker under an airport somewhere in teh american midwest.. his office looks like NASA's capcom in houston
<Mouring> You want litteral or correct english translation?
<Yashcli> http://bam.st/4gW this is "nitro" heh
<Sobh_> correct
<m10> or, are you something..
<m10> hmm
<Mouring> "Are you a Panther Princess?"
<m10> Mouring-sempai!
<Sobh_> Which language is that?
<Sobh_> indian?
<m10> is that what it says , are you a panther princess ?
<m10> japanese
<Sobh_> how do I encrypt a string of text using crypt?
<m10> hime-sama is princess if I recall right
<Mouring> m10, well.. "Are you a panther?" in reality.. hime is the postfix for female royality.
<m10> mhm
<m10> ic
<Mouring> used in the same way that -sempai or -san or -kun or -chan
<Sobh_> any suggestions/idea ?
<m10> yrd yrd
<m10> yes yes
<pbug> sobh: what language?
<m10> hard to type with a PB infront of the keybaord
<m10> sakura-hime would be like a Your royal hiness named Sakura
<Sobh_> maybe man crypt ?
<pbug> sobh: hrmm was it you that mentioned the sed looks funny on linux?
<Sobh_> yea
<Milamber> Hmm.. Does anyone know if there's any downside to turning on UseLogin in sshd?
<Mouring> m10, problem is we are also trying to do litteral translations.
<pbug> sobh; you're right.. kinda odd
<Mouring> and the language isn't litteral. It is honnorifics.
<Mouring> mil, X11 stops working.
