I have a table-top DVD player that can play DVDs and DIVX video files.
BTW, I know how to make Divx files using ffmpeg, mencoder and HandBrakeCLI.
What I don't know how to do is add the subtitles from the DVD to the Divx files. I want the option to turn on and off the subtitles from the divx file. Is this possible?
I have Matroska file with some subtitles already built in. How can I add another subtitles, with proper language setting and encoding?
Tried:
mkvmerge -o output.mkv -S source.mkv new-subtitles.srt
but it looks like it removed all other subtitles. What am I doing wrong?
trying to convert a avi file with subtitles into a iso file ready for burning on to a disc, I am using DeVeDe to convert the file but I keep getting the error SPUMUX when trying to convert. I have no idea on what to do with this, is it because I am trying to convert to ISO? should I just try to convert to MPEG instead would that stop the error?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was looking for a way to totally turn off the Hibernate option in 11.04, and not just remove the option from the menu. I have read that you can easily disable hibernate from System>Preferences>Power Management but as far as i can see I have no options in there to do such.I found this and similar pages: URL... I do not have the key named can_hibernate anywhere under my gnome-power-manager.I read that this is the option that only removes the "hibernate" option from the power menu, but actually does not disable the service, can anyone confirm this?URL...
Just curious but disabling hibernate in linux save you hardisk space like it does in windows (still quite new here)?
Doing this: mplayer dvd://1 -v -dumpstream -dumpfile dump.vob Gives me all the audio tracks, but not the subtitles. How can I go about getting the subtitles to be included in the file dump.vob? I've tried something like: mplayer dvd://1 -v -sid 5 -dumpstream -dumpfile dump.vob (where -sid 5 was the correct subtitle) but this does not work. I'm going to use mencoder to make an .avi file (with subtiutles, obviously), so I could, as a last resort, use some other program that extracts the subtitles (suggestions?).

I install the printer using:
And when it ask me about plugin I give the path to it. (the 3.9.2 version of the plugin, because Ubuntu 9.04 has the 3.9.2 version of hplip)
well I install the printer, everything works perfectly.....but, when I turn off the PC, and turn it on again, the printer does NOT work!, I send work for being printed but mothing happens , Ubuntu tells me that the job was printed but ... no case, my printer does not print it.
I have to install it again since cero. what can I don to stop install it every time I turn off the computer ?
I'm working on a alias/script that will make it easier to look at my environment via the set command.
On my ubunto when running set it also displays some 10 pages of code pertaining to something called "imagemagik". at the end of the output. This code begins with the { character.
This is annoying if I want to look at my environment when working on scripts. How could I use something like grep, awk, sed, or whatever to ignore everything after the "{" character.
That seems to be the simplest way as long as there are no leading brackets in my environment. (And if you're thinking I should just remove {imagemagik}, I might just do that. But I still would like to know how to do this).
I am trying to make my first tar file in linux. I am trying to make a tar file from a folder (with all subfolders and files) and using several commands I got several errors!
This is the tar usage:
tar [-]{txruc}[eONvVwAfblhm{op}][0-7[lmh]] [tapefile] [blocksize] [[-C directory] file] ...
Some of my attempts and responses:
tar -czf itic_glb_cognity-06082010.tar.gz itic-glb-cognity/
response: tar: z: unknown option (not using 'z' again!)
tar -cf itic-glb-cognity-06082010.tar.gz itic-glb-cognity/
response: tar: cannot stat itic-glb-cognity. Not dumped.
The last ones repeats for all the next attempts:
tar -cf itic-glb-cognity-06082010.tar.gz itic-glb-cognity
tar -cf iticglbcognity06082010.tar.gz itic-glb-cognity/

I recently setup a new server to share files, pics, music, etc. I am also printing to an HP psc1315 attached to the server. The server is running Fedora 10. My main PC runs Fedora 10 as well, the other 2 pc's are running windows (xp and vista). All the shares are working fine on all pc's. I used cupsaddsmb to push the print drivers to the windows pc's and that is working. The problem is: I have to turn on the "cups option=raw" to get my linux pc to print. If I do the windows machines won't print. If I turn it off, my pc (FC10) will not print and windows will. What gives? I did not have windows printing to the old server but I did not have to turn on the raw option to get linux printing working either. It was running Mandriva back then. Attached is my cfg file. I chopped the share def's as I didn't think it relevant.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am wondering if anyone has figured out how to turn off the file locking in openoffice 3.2. I have been searching the net for solutions, trying out the fixes, and as of right now I have not been able to find a way to stop the creation of lock files.
I have tried editing both /usr/bin/soffice and /usr/lib/openoffice/program/soffice as described in the links (below), but this has not helped.
Here are the relevant links I have found

According to this thread, the method I tried (setting SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=0) was based on earlier versions of openoffice.org It no longer works because as of openoffice.org 3 the file locking is built into the program.

I've transcoded a number of videos into mp4 which include subtitles. I was using VLC before which did not show these by default but now I want to use Totem.
Totem has the option to turn these off (change subtitles to none from auto) but I cannot find a way to set this globally (and it doesn't remember the setting for each file).
Is there a way to set "never show subtitles by default" globally or is there a way to delete the subtitles from the mp4 file? (They are not rendered on the video; they can be turned off).
Otherwise I may have to start my transcoding from scratch! (Disabling any subtitles).

I've tried DVD::rip which creates a VOB file and I've tried converting this with Avidemux (qt) but the file it creates, although avi doesn't play - wrong codec? It doesn't recognise the vOB file.
I tried ripping it with Acidrip with the various codecs available, it created avi files but none would play, again PVR reports Wrong codec?
Am I missing something? Any other open source apps that will do it?
