achew22: |
Agrajag- it says XboX in the name — will it run on an xbox |
| [00:03:03] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
I'd still have to check if geexbox will do 480p or 720p |
| [00:03:05] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
and |
| [00:03:06] |
jd86: |
any idea why i'm still having trubbles with recordings 'recording' but not actually recording |
| [00:03:35] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
I'd also have to check to see if I can just get it to play videos and not need/provide any ways for users to futz with it ;) |
| [00:03:47] |
achew22: |
jd86 if we get some more nfo we could probably help |
| [00:04:15] |
jd86: |
alright, last time i asked everyone was clueless, i am slightly busy now |
| [00:04:18] |
jd86: |
heh |
| [00:04:28] |
kormoc: |
AlexNeumanPTY, myth won't do that |
| [00:04:32] |
achew22: |
why ask in the 1st place then? |
| [00:04:40] |
jd86: |
basically what happens is i schedule things to be recorded, i go in and hit watch recording and a box comes up saying the file can not be found. |
| [00:04:53] |
achew22: |
does the file exist? |
| [00:04:56] |
jd86: |
no |
| [00:05:06] |
achew22: |
there's your problem |
| [00:05:13] |
jd86: |
yup |
| [00:05:14] |
achew22: |
your trying to play nonexistant files |
| [00:05:21] |
jd86: |
which was never created |
| [00:05:24] |
achew22: |
another problem bites the dust |
| [00:05:34] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
Anybody know any good distro that would just boot off cf/cd/small hd and then just play back (straight through or shuffle) a bunch of avi's/mpegs/mov's at 480p or 720p on a DVI display? |
| [00:05:39] |
kormoc: |
jd86, check the backend log and see what it says |
| [00:05:54] |
jd86: |
kormoc: heh, my backend log was 19 gig so i just deleted it |
| [00:06:16] |
kormoc: |
AlexNeumanPTY, look into creating a custom knoppix cd, and write something similar to that script I gave you, and it should do it |
| [00:06:43] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
you're right... I could give *that* a try |
| [00:06:57] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
Can knoppix play quicktime out-of-the-box? |
| [00:07:06] |
kormoc: |
donno bout that |
| [00:08:15] |
achew22: |
AlexNeumanPTY what is this going to od? |
| [00:08:44] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
od? |
| [00:09:25] |
achew22: |
od == do |
| [00:09:29] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
oh |
| [00:09:40] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
I just saw something called movix that might do the trick |
| [00:09:44] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
basically what I want to do |
| [00:10:15] |
dscoular: |
AngryElf: sorry, stepped away for a sec... yes... you should find all the info you need at http://www.unionfs.org/ |
| [00:10:18] |
nosun: |
yeah!!! got composite working on my cap cards |
| [00:10:27] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
is to boot a computer and have it play back whatever videos it finds on a specific folder somewhere |
| [00:10:28] |
nosun: |
though kdetv lists 4x cap cards |
| [00:10:32] |
nosun: |
I have 2 in:P |
| [00:10:33] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
in sequence or in shuffle |
| [00:10:43] |
nosun: |
and half of em don't work for shit |
| [00:10:43] |
nosun: |
:P |
| [00:10:48] |
AlexNeumanPTY: |
for a plasma display running at 480p or 720p |
| [00:11:00] |
achew22: |
is it always on? |
| [00:11:48] |
nosun: |
do I need to have my cap card working on kdetv for it to work in myth? |
| [00:12:07] |
jd86: |
kormoc: this has been happening for quite some time |
| [00:12:33] |
jd86: |
achew22: i asked because eventually things get to be a popular problem |
| [00:12:49] |
achew22: |
are you able to watch the files? |
| [00:12:58] |
jd86: |
achew22: that to me? |
| [00:13:03] |
kormoc: |
given they don't exist, it's a bit hard achew22 |
| [00:13:05] |
achew22: |
yes |
| [00:13:10] |
jd86: |
yea no exist |
| [00:13:11] |
jd86: |
never created |
| [00:13:14] |
jd86: |
never recorded |
| [00:13:21] |
jd86: |
the entry gets created but nothing ever gets recorded |
| [00:13:27] |
kormoc: |
jd86, I would check the mailing list to be honest, they tend to know a bit about odd things like that |
| [00:13:31] |
achew22: |
well I had a similar problem ... my father was deleting the files via samba but the database wasn't getting told that the files were gone |
| [00:13:53] |
nosun: |
can someone please answer my question?;) |
| [00:14:07] |
kormoc: |
nosun, the answer is yes with a bttv card |
| [00:14:16] |
achew22: |
nosun no with ivtv |
| [00:14:26] |
jd86: |
no one is deleting the files, they just cease to exist, and sometimes its alzhiemers gets me quite mad as it misses some good shows, and also i'm having a problem where recordings are all black |
| [00:14:30] |
jd86: |
all kinds of problems |
| [00:14:42] |
kormoc: |
weird |
| [00:15:11] |
jd86: |
i am running svn :-O.. so its to be expected i'm going to update it |
| [00:15:25] |
nosun: |
thanx kormoc and achew22 |
| [00:15:31] |
nosun: |
achew funny nick:p |
| [00:15:35] |
achew22: |
nosun whats your situation |
| [00:15:47] |
achew22: |
nosun i'm glad you got it — sometimes I have to change it to sneezer for people to understand |
| [00:15:54] |
nosun: |
just kinda trying stuff and seeing what works |
| [00:16:29] |
nosun: |
I'm major linux newbie:P |
| [00:16:41] |
nosun: |
I'm amazed I got this far but then again this is suse:P |
| [00:17:00] |
achew22: |
nosun what kind of card do you have |
| [00:17:16] |
achew22: |
nosun if you want pain do what kormoc did to me... drop in gentoo and try from there |
| [00:17:18] |
nosun: |
2x cards.... one is a Zoltrix TV-Max |
| [00:17:20] |
nosun: |
bt |
| [00:17:23] |
achew22: |
ohh |
| [00:17:26] |
achew22: |
bt... sad panda |
| [00:17:30] |
nosun: |
and the other is MSI TV@nywhere |
| [00:17:31] |
nosun: |
:P |
| [00:17:46] |
nosun: |
which apparently works with kernel 2.6 |
| [00:17:51] |
achew22: |
bttv is the retarted half sister of ivtv |
| [00:18:01] |
kormoc: |
it's the older sister of ivtv |
| [00:18:10] |
nosun: |
I believe I know:P |
| [00:18:14] |
nosun: |
got bought out:P |
| [00:18:16] |
kormoc: |
and it works really well, given what it is |
| [00:18:33] |
nosun: |
I have actually 3x cap cards |
| [00:18:34] |
achew22: |
it takes way too much processing power |
| [00:18:38] |
nosun: |
but only using 2:P |
| [00:18:49] |
achew22: |
I have 5... but they are dispersed around a bunch of computers |
| [00:18:51] |
nosun: |
2x bt and 1x msi tv @nywhere:P |
| [00:19:01] |
achew22: |
one is in a closet |
| [00:19:09] |
kormoc: |
achew22, given the days when that chip was made, it was the best that could be done, it wasn't designed for capture, it was designed for direct viewing only |
| [00:19:12] |
nosun: |
gimme |
| [00:19:12] |
nosun: |
:P |
| [00:19:13] |
nosun: |
jk's |
| [00:19:21] |
achew22: |
dude... you don't want it |
| [00:19:26] |
achew22: |
it doesn't have linux support |
| [00:19:37] |
nosun: |
:( |
| [00:20:18] |
nosun: |
me I would ask so much more but I know my questions will get me in trouble:P for I know rtfm will come soon after;) |
| [00:20:28] |
nosun: |
so I resist in this case:) |
| [00:20:35] |
nosun: |
and try shit |
| [00:20:35] |
nosun: |
:P |
| [00:21:37] |
achew22: |
nosun have no fear... i hate the manual with a passion and I will answer any question that I can |
| [00:21:51] |
nosun: |
lol |
| [00:22:10] |
achew22: |
when my gf showsup at my house though — its game over for you |
| [00:22:17] |
nosun: |
I was gonna ask something but in bt's case it don't matter if kdetv works:P |
| [00:22:40] |
nosun: |
I'll have to see what I can do about that then;) |
| [00:23:09] |
** nosun trying to find achew22's gf so he can pay her off to take a day off ** |

achew22: |

nosun: |

| [00:24:34] |
nosun: |

| [00:24:42] |
achew22: |
easy... ubuntu |
| [00:24:47] |
achew22: |
http://www.ubuntu.org |
| [00:24:53] |
nosun: |
ubuntu it is |
| [00:25:02] |
kormoc: |
some say ubuntu, others fedora |
| [00:25:11] |
achew22: |
oops... its .com |
| [00:25:14] |
kormoc: |
most say fedora due to the awesome guide that jarod did that walked you though it |
| [00:25:31] |
achew22: |
I say ubuntu because of the awesome guide hyam setup |
| [00:25:39] |
achew22: |
and abarbaccia |
| [00:25:45] |
achew22: |
and like 200 other people |
| [00:25:46] |
nosun: |
me I've installed debian, fedora, myth knoppix, windows xp;), debian |
| [00:25:50] |
nosun: |
then suse |
| [00:26:00] |
achew22: |
dump suse... noone likes paying for linux |
| [00:26:27] |
nosun: |
lol |
| [00:26:30] |
nosun: |
I never payed:P |
| [00:26:35] |
kormoc: |
suse is free |
| [00:26:44] |
nosun: |
it actually somewhat finds my cap cards which is a plus |
| [00:26:51] |
nosun: |
though they aren't working 100%:p |
| [00:26:58] |
achew22: |
okay... for the good features (most up to date version) it costs |
| [00:27:08] |
nosun: |
I'm using 10:P |
| [00:27:11] |
kormoc: |
it's like that way for more then just suse |
| [00:27:15] |
nosun: |
I think thats uptodate |
| [00:27:25] |
kormoc: |
mandrake, redhat, etc all have a for pay version as well |
| [00:27:38] |
achew22: |
kormoc notice how I don't use any of those |
| [00:27:44] |
** kormoc shrugs ** |
| [00:28:00] |
nosun: |
I was just thinking.... |
| [00:28:01] |
achew22: |
I've been meaning to ask you a question kormoc.... |
| [00:28:06] |
kormoc: |
just saying, it's not uncommon, nor is it really an issue imho. |
| [00:28:09] |
achew22: |
how did you trick me into using gentoo |
| [00:28:13] |
nosun: |
if ms was just a bit smarter they'd make a windows free edition |
| [00:28:14] |
kormoc: |
I didn't |
| [00:28:24] |
nosun: |
to gain "popularity" |
| [00:28:40] |
kormoc: |
nosun, they do that in certain areas of the world (china for a little) |
| [00:28:41] |
achew22: |
dude... 75+% usage isn't popular? |
| [00:28:49] |
kormoc: |
but they don't need to in the west |
| [00:28:59] |
nosun: |
really? |
| [00:29:03] |
achew22: |
yeah — windows lite |
| [00:29:04] |
nosun: |
thats news to my ears:P |
| [00:29:17] |
achew22: |
isn't that what they called it? |
| [00:29:18] |
nosun: |
they give that free? |
| [00:29:23] |
kormoc: |
they're not stupid, they do have a 85% useage rate world wide. |
| [00:29:26] |
achew22: |
it was really cheap |
| [00:29:35] |
achew22: |
50$ maybe less |
| [00:29:47] |
nosun: |
gah |
| [00:29:52] |
kormoc: |
it was free last I heard |
| [00:30:02] |
achew22: |
I only read about the india version |
| [00:30:07] |
nosun: |
probably due to outdated;) |
| [00:30:08] |
achew22: |
it may very well have been free for china |
| [00:30:15] |
achew22: |
no — it could only run 2 programs at the same time |
| [00:30:24] |
nosun: |
wtf:S |
| [00:30:27] |
kormoc: |
2 programs? |
| [00:30:28] |
** kormoc blinks ** |
| [00:30:29] |
achew22: |
i.e. outlook express + aim killed the computer if you wanted to boot open office |
| [00:30:38] |
kormoc: |
achew22, that's not really anything I read about |
| [00:30:47] |
achew22: |
lets see if I can find that |
| [00:30:52] |
achew22: |
it was all over /. and digg |
| [00:31:06] |
kormoc: |
nosun, the idea was it prevented people from pirating, and thus they would get used to going to MS directly for software, and it prevented linux from getting a foot hold |
| [00:31:07] |
nosun: |
2 programs at a time tahts :S |
| [00:31:12] |
nosun: |
thats* |
| [00:31:43] |
nosun: |
I'm a unnatural born pirate;) |
| [00:31:56] |
nosun: |
from birth till death;) |
| [00:32:12] |
nosun: |
litterally when I was younger my dads friend knick named me that:P |
| [00:32:15] |
nosun: |
I hated it but he did |

dtm: |

| [00:33:12] |
nosun: |
:) |
| [00:33:16] |
nosun: |
hence the pirate:P |
| [00:33:17] |
achew22: |
did you yell yar when you were born? |
| [00:33:26] |
achew22: |
that would make you a pirate |
| [00:33:31] |
nosun: |
damn rights;) |
| [00:33:47] |
nosun: |
I was born oct31:P |
| [00:33:52] |
achew22: |
I'm a pirate because when I turn on the car and people are in it I yell "yar! were off like a prom dress" |

| [00:34:43] |
nosun: |

| [00:34:48] |
dtm: |
achew22: i'd have to say it doesn't! |

nosun: |
or easy to find on google? |
| [00:35:13] |
dtm: |
nosun: you're.... asking *us*.... if google has something? |
| [00:35:29] |
dtm: |
you typed the query in full english sentence format into an irc client? |
| [00:35:42] |
dtm: |
as a means of finding something on google. |
| [00:35:56] |
achew22: |
i used to have a bot in one of the channels I ran that allowd you to google stuff by typing !google search terms |
| [00:36:02] |
dtm: |
i've seen a dozen variants on that theme, but never quite that one. |
| [00:36:18] |
nosun: |
:S |
| [00:36:21] |
dtm: |
who am i kidding? i probably have a hundred times, and i blocked it out for fear of getting dumber. |
| [00:36:40] |
achew22: |
dtm... thats an important skill if your going to try and help people with computers |
| [00:36:53] |
nosun: |
damn ubuntu is downloading slowly |
| [00:36:53] |
dtm: |
achew22: losing your fear of getting dumber? yes i know, absolutely. |
| [00:36:55] |
nosun: |

nosun: |

| [00:43:49] |
nosun: |

how can i determine what 'protocol version' my backend uses? |
| [00:44:10] |
nosun: |
winnie the poo is from where I live;) |
| [00:44:21] |
kormoc: |
jd86, it's version dependant |
| [00:44:21] |
achew22: |
jd86 you should do mythbackend --version |
| [00:44:24] |
achew22: |
i think its in there |
| [00:44:34] |
jd86: |
i have a svn release, alright |
| [00:44:42] |
achew22: |
ohh — thats unfortunate |
| [00:44:51] |
jd86: |
heh |
| [00:44:51] |
kormoc: |
jd86, just make sure all your frontends and backends and plugins use the same svn rev number, and you'll be fine |

| [00:45:33] |
nosun: |
you in Canada or US or what? |
| [00:45:36] |
nosun: |
me in Canada;) |
| [00:45:40] |
kormoc: |
jd86, sure, if you had the bandwidth |
| [00:46:09] |
jd86: |
how much bandwidth are we talkin about? |
| [00:46:10] |
achew22: |
lol 14mbps up would be a nice inet connection... |
| [00:46:19] |
kormoc: |
jd86, depends on your recording settings |
| [00:46:27] |
jd86: |
i'll have to give it a shot |
| [00:46:39] |
kormoc: |
jd86, default, recording at 2 mbit + overhead |
| [00:46:47] |

currently my pvr has a 128 ddr strip |
| [00:47:02] |
nosun: |
and thats all:P |
| [00:47:05] |
achew22: |
kormoc is that 2 megabits or bytes? |
| [00:47:11] |
kormoc: |
bits |
| [00:47:18] |
achew22: |
thats possible for internet |
| [00:47:27] |

hence why I said 2 mbit for bits |
| [00:47:36] |

ohh... |

achew22: |
i wish I could read |
| [00:47:39] |

possible maybe |
| [00:47:56] |

I almost wish when I upgraded that one guys comp I didn't tell em that he could use his one 256 strip:P |
| [00:47:58] |
kormoc: |
verizon's fiber service can do it, it should be 15 mbit down 5 mbit up iirc |
| [00:48:19] |
achew22: |
how fast is google inet |
| [00:48:29] |
jd86: |
i have 2mbits up |

nosun: |
apparently for the first few months will be free |
| [00:50:05] |
jd86: |
hey, this may be an incredibly stupid question, but is it possible to have multiple ir recievers on one "cable" with the hauppage cards? (crazy idea of mine heh) like in different rooms but still same input all like in a big loopy? |
| [00:50:12] |
nosun: |
I don't see how that is good |
| [00:50:25] |
achew22: |
jd86 get a splitter..... |
| [00:50:26] |

nosun, it'll be ad driven, according to what they've been saying |

bmk789: |

achew22: |
jd86 make a splitter |
| [00:51:27] |
achew22: |
bmk I said it like 10 lines ago |
| [00:51:50] |
bmk789: |
shoot, i need a bigger screen |

no google will likely buy out earth and force us to go to mars or poluto |

nosun: |
:P |
| [00:52:05] |
jd86: |
achew22: and how long of a cable can the reciever still work with? right now i used a cat 5 cable and just split it and extended it but i have a wierd idea to use the extra cables in my phone line (they used cat 5 and only use 2 wires of it) and have a reciever in all 3 rooms with the frontends, and use different remotes, and then get 3 video cards with rca out, and use cable modulators and connect them downstairs so each room doesn't need a |
| [00:52:05] |
jd86: |
frontend |
| [00:52:09] |
nosun: |
or live on the sun.... |
| [00:52:16] |
nosun: |
of course during night though;) |
| [00:52:21] |
bmk789: |
ouch |
| [00:52:49] |
achew22: |
jd86 i'm no ee, but I would say that its probably easier to just put an ir receiver at each frontend |
| [00:53:21] |
jd86: |
achew22: but i don't want any frontend at each tv |
| [00:53:32] |
jd86: |
achew22: i'm trying to remove 3 frontends and replace it with one SUPER frontend |
| [00:53:36] |
achew22: |
so you want to cable modulate it to each.... |
| [00:53:39] |
achew22: |
thats crazy.... |
| [00:53:42] |
jd86: |
huh? |
| [00:53:43] |
jd86: |
no |
| [00:53:49] |
jd86: |
downstairs where all the cable wires come together |
| [00:53:49] |
achew22: |
crazy AWESOME |
| [00:53:53] |
jd86: |
i'll get 3 cable modulators |
| [00:53:57] |
kormoc: |
jd86, get a rf remote, it works though walls |
| [00:54:04] |
jd86: |
heh downstairs |
| [00:54:04] |
achew22: |
dude... put a pda or r remote in |
| [00:54:13] |
jd86: |
well i'll figure out something |
| [00:54:17] |
jd86: |
so i only have one frontend |
| [00:54:21] |
achew22: |
yeah |
| [00:54:24] |
jd86: |
with 3 video cards, using cable modulators |
| [00:54:30] |
jd86: |
and some form of remote remote setup |
| [00:54:46] |
achew22: |
yeah, remote is the easy part... i wanna see you get your frontend programmed to a channel |
| [00:54:55] |
nosun: |
PCI-X got to be useful for something;) |
| [00:55:03] |
kormoc: |
achew22, cable modulator does that for you |
| [00:55:06] |
achew22: |
yeah... slr video cards.... |
| [00:55:10] |
jd86: |
achew22: the remote is the hard part, i just go out to target or wwherever and buy 3 modulators |
| [00:55:21] |
kormoc: |
jd86, or just one and a few amps |
| [00:55:22] |
achew22: |
why do you need 3? |
| [00:55:23] |
bmk789: |
wouldnt it be awesome to have linux on a PDA running myth frontend? |
| [00:55:35] |
kormoc: |
jd86, rf remotes are fine, x10 makes some iirc |
| [00:55:39] |
jd86: |
3 seperate inputs, 3 seperate cables |
| [00:55:39] |
bmk789: |
like sony's locationfreeTV thing |
| [00:55:42] |
jd86: |
that was for the cable thing |
| [00:55:47] |
achew22: |
jd86 just put 3 cards in 1 box |
| [00:55:48] |
jd86: |
i don't know what to do about the remote honestly |
| [00:55:51] |
D-side: |
i wanted that locationfree thing |
| [00:55:52] |
D-side: |
so bad. |
| [00:55:54] |
jd86: |
the 3 tvs arent near each other |
| [00:55:58] |
achew22: |
so... |
| [00:56:01] |
D-side: |
not worth the $ for the thing though. |
| [00:56:03] |
** kormoc points jd86 at the lines he keeps saying ** |
| [00:56:03] |
nosun: |
pad mythtv frontend yes really kool:P |
| [00:56:07] |
nosun: |
pda* |
| [00:56:16] |
achew22: |
I have my xbox setup like that.... |
| [00:56:32] |
achew22: |
I got a rf controller and channel 3 is my xbox |
| [00:56:34] |
kormoc: |
jd86, RF Remote, Radio Frequency, goes though walls, works... |
| [00:56:46] |
jd86: |
but once (and i'm pretty sure i will do it) i get all no frontend at the tv, i can convince the rest of the family to utilize it |
| [00:56:56] |
jd86: |
kormoc: how many walls, i have a x10 remote (rf i assume..) and i can't go that far |
| [00:56:57] |
nosun: |
what type system do you need to make an all in one box |
| [00:57:10] |
nosun: |
that what I don't understand what if you want a standalone box:P |
| [00:57:10] |
kormoc: |
there's some high powered ones that go though a nice bit |
| [00:57:20] |
jd86: |
kormoc: thats harder than the phone thing? |
| [00:57:23] |
kormoc: |
60' or 90' I've heard about |
| [00:57:35] |
jd86: |
well downstairs is where i want the frontend to be |
| [00:57:35] |
kormoc: |
depends on your walls |
| [00:57:38] |
jd86: |
yea |
| [00:57:48] |
jd86: |
plus i need 3 rmeotes that work on different frequencies.. |
| [00:57:49] |
nosun: |
me I want my box to be 2 in one:P |
| [00:57:52] |
achew22: |
use bluetooth for it |
| [00:57:56] |
achew22: |
that would be awesome |
| [00:57:57] |
jd86: |
this sounds $$ |
| [00:58:01] |
kormoc: |
of course |
| [00:58:05] |
nosun: |
cause I don't want to have 2 comps doing what I think 1 should do:P |
| [00:58:10] |
jd86: |
if i can actually do the remote thing thru the phone wires it'd be real cheap |
| [00:58:22] |
jd86: |
i have 1 computer thats back/frontend and then two other frontends |
| [00:58:30] |
kormoc: |
latencys would be suckier imho |
| [00:58:33] |
jd86: |
what i really want is 1 front and 1 back, to control all of the tvs in my house |
| [00:58:41] |
kormoc: |
and you'd need to amp the signal |
| [00:58:46] |
nosun: |
jd86 there are remote extenders;) |
| [00:58:57] |
WHiTE^^BOX: |
mplayer interrupted by signal 11 In module: init_audio_codec |
| [00:59:00] |
jd86: |
true nosun but i have 3 places will it work alright? |
| [00:59:12] |
jd86: |
kormoc: well how far is the limit, it works great and i extended it like 15 feet already |
| [00:59:15] |
WHiTE^^BOX: |
cant play transc. dvd iso's? |
| [00:59:27] |
nosun: |
3 remote extenders all pointing to the receiver why not:P |
| [00:59:39] |
kormoc: |
jd86, it all depends on the design of the receiver, it could work for another 5' or another 50' |
| [00:59:47] |
achew22: |
bluetooth |
| [00:59:49] |
jd86: |
true, but its possible it could work |
| [01:00:00] |
jd86: |
yea people i'm 17 i don't exactly have a life savings to play with on this.. |
| [01:00:09] |
nosun: |
one thing probably wouldn't be cheap on $$$ |
| [01:00:09] |
nosun: |

| [01:00:19] |

bluetooth is amazing.... my phone can bluetooth into my ocmputer from 3 houses over |
| [01:00:30] |
nosun: |
lol |
| [01:00:34] |
jd86: |
so the rf modulation for the tv is the easy part, the remote is the harder part, i will lookinto rf remotes and stuff |
| [01:00:36] |
achew22: |
its fucking amazing |
| [01:00:39] |
nosun: |
isn't bluetooth suppose to be short distance:P |
| [01:00:46] |
achew22: |
not type 2 |
| [01:00:50] |
nosun: |
heh |
| [01:00:52] |
achew22: |
its got a 100' range |

normal way? |
| [01:02:12] |
nosun: |
wireless keyboards |
| [01:02:15] |
achew22: |
nosun it would be easier to give them a cd that had a autostart keylogger and make it a mixed cd so that it would play audio when they put it in |
| [01:02:20] |
WHiTE^^BOX: |
when i rip a dvd as iso.. al goes fine.. |
| [01:02:26] |
Anduin: |
WHiTE^^BOX: Normal way to use mplayer to play .isos in mplayer (there is no difference between mtd created .isos and dd) |
| [01:02:34] |
WHiTE^^BOX: |
but.. when i want to play it.. mplayer complaines about audio codec |
| [01:02:51] |
nosun: |
I think not achew |
| [01:03:03] |
achew22: |
nosun I have to tell you it has worked before |
| [01:03:05] |
nosun: |
most wifi keyboards are piece's of shit |
