user contributed movie scene selection, or, past clearplay

Filed under: Uncategorized — rogerdpack @ 4:02 pm

I envision having a system where users can contribute their own EDL’s, or filters, for DVD’s.  These filters tell you when to stop, when to start, when to continue but muted. 

Then to use them you right click a menu associated with the DVD in the drive, and select from the available filters for that DVD.

There is a central repository for it that provides for auto downloading of all filters, and auto downloading of filters related to a DVD when it is first inserted.

The filters can also do more than just mute or skip–they can jump from one spot to another [ex: inserting outtakes, with and without choosing sections of the screen of said outtakes to insert], insert outside media into the middle of playing it [ex: sounds to play over profanity, user contributed soundtracks/voice overs, etc.]

ruby shoes specify starting window size

Filed under: Uncategorized — rogerdpack @ 11:08 pm

It is indeed possible–where are the docs?

ex:



      window :width => 1000, :height => 1000 do

        para "big size"

      end

wget windows access is denied

Filed under: Uncategorized — rogerdpack @ 5:18 pm

C:\dev\downloads>shoes2.exe

Access is denied.

 

meant “wget assigned weird privileges to it–copy the file in explorer to somewhere else then run it”

command prompt how to get rid of “Terminate Batch job (Y/N)?” prompt

Filed under: Uncategorized — rogerdpack @ 11:35 pm

http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/misc/patching-cmdexe.html

says it all.

Note, however, that you’ll need to put in 0×90′s all the way through all from 68 28 23 00 00 to something that “looks almost like” 8B 35 C4 CA D2 4A EB OC which is quite a few.
This is quite good, however.

ssh port forwarding for git

Filed under: Uncategorized — rogerdpack @ 8:09 pm

Here’s how I did it

ssh name@host -L9418:github.com:9418

then
git clone git://github.com/oneclick/rubyinstaller.git

becomes

git clone git://localhost/oneclick/rubyinstaller.git

This way overcomes those nasty 9418 blocking firewalls, and allows you to download it using straight git protocol, not git over http http://betterlogic.com/roger/?p=825 which doesn’t currently work with github http://support.github.com/discussions/repos/25-using-http-to-access-github-repos

mingw msys autoconf 2.6

describes how to update your autoconf to 2.6 [I think] with mingw.

I think meant “turn off your virus scanners and firewalls they are interfering somehow” — seems more like a bug to me, though…not sure.

“you need an updated version of MSYS” — follow this trail:

odyssey weirdness

Filed under: Uncategorized — rogerdpack @ 6:38 pm

if odyssey refuses to restart wireless after once having it “plugged in” to wired, this for me said “using wired connection” and meant “disable all the adapters except wireless in your network connections.” [in reality the adapters for virtualbox or andlinux were "acting" as well connected wired connections, confusing odyssey--but the fact that there is no override is...disconcerting.]
