Fedora :: Requesting Software Recommendations For Converting Animated GIF To MPEG
Aug 27, 2010
I use a commercial finite element code to produce animated GIF files of my calculation results. In case you are interested, the code is COMSOL Multiphysics 4.0a, running on Fedora 13 x86_64. Note that the FEA code only has the option of saving movies as animated GIF files in Linux.
These GIF files tend to be quite large, and although they are adequate for my own use on my local computer system, I wish to convert these files into other standard formats of more manageable size. These smaller files would then be easier to distribute to others or to include in presentations and reports.
I would like to ask for recommendations for either GUI-based video player/conversion applications or command line codes that could, for example, convert from animated GIF files to MPEG files. I would prefer an application that allows for multiple input/output format choices as well as conversion options for changing the playback speed, splicing out a portion of the original animation, etc.

How can I convert, say, 1 out of every 8 frames from the movie?

I have just captured some screen-shots with GTK-RecordMyDesktop, but now I can't use them. The videos plays right in vlc and totem, but crashs Pitivi and turn into pink splotches in kdenlive. When I convert them using ffmpeg, the video turns into blue and pink splotches. Here is how I'm converting it:Code:ffmpeg -i out.ogv out2.mpgConverting it with vlc crashes the program.I never had problems like this before. I have used recordmydesktop and ffmpeg many times, but on a 32bit computer. I have a 64 pc now, running ubuntu 10.04 x64.

I have seemed to work out all bugs in pulseaudio except 1. When pulseaudio wakes up it stutters for a few seconds and then plays fine. I ran pulseaudio -vvv in the terminal and found that it was an underrun and got this message.
Code:
protocol-native.c: Requesting rewind due to end of underrun.

Today I noticed my sdl modem flashing away when I had no internet access programs active as far as I was aware. I did a 'ps ax' to see what was running. I saw nothing that warranted internet access. I didn't recognize the gvfsd-computer process and tried finding documentation about it on my system. I began to feel uncomfortable when I couldn't find anything showing what it was. Finally, I killed the process and the internet access immediately stopped. Research on the net showed that gvfsd-computer is a file browser. I find this very disturbing. Why was a file browser accessing my disk drive (the light was flashing) and why was it accessing the internet without my requesting such an action?

I have an animated gif image that I would like to place on a still image and combine the two into a single image with the animation still working at the point where I place it. Is this possible? Could anyone describe the procedure in the GIMP for doing this?

Is it just me or does a page full of animated GIFs act funny on Fedora 14?
Example: [url]
Half the emoticons like to flash and disappear and things, even right clicking one and doing "view image" links to a gif that keeps disappearing and flickering. But when saved and viewed in another program (aMSN for instance) the GIF is fine.

I can't get the MPEG decoder plug in so i can listen to my tunes that I have in itunes on my windows os. When I go search to find the plug in it searches for it but then says "Could not find plugin in any configured software source" Please help because I would enjoy fedora a lot better if i could listen to my music. I use to have Kubuntu, but I switched to fedora because Kubuntu was having the same problem. Once again please help, and remember I'm new.

I am way new to Linux and am getting thrown into the deep end. My company is rolling out a Linux environment to support an application we are using. We are using RHEL for the OS. Does anyone have any recommendations for partition sizes?From what I can tell that appears to be the default values if you do a 'wife install' (yes, yes, yes, yes, yes) on RHEL.

Have a system that previously had F9 and F10 on it, with video hardware:
Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
xorg.conf is using
Driver "intel"
F9 and F10 would pass MPEG to the video card for accelerated decoding and playback and it worked just great in VLC, MPLAYER, etc.
F11 installed (fresh install, not upgrade) and the accelerated path seems to be gone. CPU utilization goes very high when playing back any MPEG video.
Additionally, the following information is observed coming out of MPLAYER:
MPEG-ES file format detected.
VIDEO: MPEG2 1920x1080 (aspect 1) 59.940 fps 15000.0 kbps (1875.0 kbyte/s)
================================================== ========================
Opening video decoder: [mpegpes] MPEG 1/2 Video passthrough
[Code]....
It looks to me like the video driver is being queried whether it supports Mpeg PES colorspace, and the answer seems to be no, so then it falls back to software decoding.

I am having some trouble with xine, and because of this I cannot get any media player to work. When I try to play mp3's in Amarok, nothing happens and the song does not play. When I try to open xine, it opens a window that says
The stream 'There is no MRL' uses an unsupported codec:
Video Codec: MPEG 1/2 (0x0)
Start playback anyway?

I have a Dell PowerEdge 840 that has no sound card. I would like to install a completely compatible sound card. I have not been able to find any recommendations for compatible sound cards on these forums, but I have learned that the C-Media chipset is supposed to be well-supported by Linux. There are C-Media sound cards on e-bay for under $10. I was considering a 6ch c-media 5.1 surround sound 3D PCI sound card. I believe the chipset is CM8738. Does anyone know whether this card is supported in F12? Or does anyone care to share any recommendations for sound cards that are known to be compatible with Fedora 12?
My intention is to be able to install a decent, inexpensive, commodity sound card that is known to be compatible with Fedora 12. I would prefer to purchase and install one that I know works rather than guessing and then fiddling with it forever and asking a lot of questions that could have been avoided.
Surprisingly, this information has been very hard for me to find. I understand that there is no Fedora hardware compatibility list, but it seems that a very brief list of hardware that is know to be compatible with the most recent release or two of Fedora could save a lot of time and resources. The purpose of such a brief list wouldn't necessarily be to see if a certain piece of hardware is compatible, but to find a component that is know to be compatible, so as to easily be able to get a completely functional system up and running.

I'm trying to do the normal setup of sharing some dir's on my linux machine using samba, to allow a windows laptop to access them.
I've managed to get the printer shared and this is allowing to send print jobs, which come out beautifully! however the actual file shares still aren't accessible
Depending on my settings, if I have security = user then when I access from the windows machine I get a username and password box - I dont want this functionality, I want the system to access right away as it would between two windows shares.
If i change security = share then it simply lists the shares, but tells me they are all inaccessible.
I've googled and searched here, tried various different things but I just can't see why/where its asking me for the username/password combo.
Code:

how to convert mkv files to either avi or mp4?
ATM I'm trying to use mencoder and am not impressed with it telling me it can't find the file I'm trying to convert. Especially when it WAS perfectly able to fid the file before my computer had an unfortunate crash, which didn't even affect the file in question.
