convert latin1 to utf8 I have a problem at convert latin1 to utf8. There are so many unreadable characters at latin1 db, and these characters could not convert into utf8 also. So I could not import to new utf8 db. Is it possible to convert these character to utf8 to import to utf8 db?
I know this is maybe a basic question while can UTF8 charset include all the language around the world?if it can ,then what is the difference between en_US.UTF8 and zh_CN.UTF8? what is the difference between en_US.UTF8 and zh_CN.UTF8 in the centos locale setting?
I have a form that have a browse button, convert to ASCII button, cancel button and text area... all i have to do is...? when i click the browse button and choose a folder that have a utf8.txt the file that have utf8 will appear or display into the text area... what i can i do to make this..?
I have some files which are UTF8 and have first line as blank. It shows as data file by "file" command. If I remove the blank line, it shows it as UTF8 text file. I have to choose displayable text files from many files, so I used "file" command.
Note: I do not have permission to attach file. So not able to attach sample file here.
I'm trying to use convert, I have installed the imagemagick. I use this line:convert *.jpg test.pdf but I'm only able to convert to pdf 1 single jpg file, not multiple files at once. When there's more than one file, I get the following error: Segmentation fault
I have a unicode utf8 file containing filenames. I wish to process them with very basic scripts but the unicode is an issue. A script to create symlinks to all the filenames and put them in a dir
Code:
#!/bin/bash while read line do echo "${line}"
[code]...
Any special way to address the unicode filenames? The links do not come out right. I am using Mac OSX GNU bash 3.2.48.
I have since quite a long time the problem that files using special characters in their filenames are not displayed in various applications. In console or Thunar I have a special "white questionmark in a rhombus" sign for every special character. It is an XFS partition. I have read a few times that this can be solved by using the iocharset=utf8 option in /etc/fstab, but this option is not recognized and the mount inhibited.
I used other options: utf8 as well as nls=utf8, but that was not recognized neither. What option do I need to specify to enable utf8 for XFS ? Samba works. That means I can play an MP3 file in Windows exported from the XFS disk using Samba, although the special character is then shown as "_" in Windows..
Would someone please let me know how to change the default locale in Ubuntu 10.04. In System/Administration/Language Support both Language and Text have been set to English (Denmark).
/etc/default/locale entry is LANG="en_DK.UTF-8". /var/lib/locales/supported.d/locale entry is en_DK.UTF-8.
Yet locale command lists LANG=en_US.utf8, and all LC_ entries as "en_US.utf8". The machine has been reset many a time.
I have Ubuntu 9.04 and just installed Sound Converter. I am trying to convert a bunch of .ogg files to mp3 to play on my iPod and it's not working so well. In the Sound Converter options I have is set to convert to high quality mp3. I choose the folder that the files are in and after a moment (slow laptop) Sound Converter populates, I hit 'convert' and it shows that the conversion completes in two seconds. All that it did was create the new folder structure of artist/album but there is nothing in there. Not sure what I am missing. I used Sound Converter before and it worked fine.
I have a lot of .flac files downloaded from several sites. Most of them come with a .cue file, and the .jpg with the cover, etc. It seems it is the intention of the uploader that one rebuilds the original CDDA. However, if I had a stand-alone CD/DVD player with flac I would hardly see the point of converting the flac to cdda. Furthermore, I could even play the flacs with a software player although, in this case, the audio quality would not be so good due to the noise picked up by the signal from the PC digital circuits.
I want to change them to "en_US.UTF-8", but I after I changed "/etc/environment" and "/etc/default/locale", nothing happens. Where is this string defined?
Using dspspy, I've recorded a number of audio files ending in .rec. Only problem is, it seems the only possible way to play them is through `cat file.rec >> /dev/dsp`. Neither sox, lame or audacity can convert them to another format.Any command-line tools that can? A .wav or .raw would be best. I just can't seem to find any conversion tools.
I have a unique issue. Unique in the sense that I have only found the opposite of what I'm after so far. Here goes:
I have a special bootable "Linux" USB. Tested the USB and it boots up and builds any old PC - with an appropriate BIOS. I would like to convert this USB - better still its contents - to an ISO.
Reason? VMWare server doesn't support USB bootable BIOS at present. Not sure it ever will.
The problem is i unable to stream this kuraiamr_nb.mov file at my streaming server. when i play this file in quicktime player its stating that this is a unsupported media type.
I have some wma file which I would like to convert to mp3. My situation is that the wma files are in different sub directories. I already have a good script which I found online but its problem is that you only can convert wma in current directory. I would like to edit this script, so I can be able to convert my wma files in sub directories too.
A copy of script is below:
Code:
I don't have that much experience in scripting but I think that don't need that much modifications to meet my requirements.

I have a file (.tgz) which is meant to be simply copied to a floppy disc. I don't have a floppy disc, so I would like to convert the file to a .img file, so that it looks like a floppy disc but is on my hard drive. How do I do this? I have looked quite a lot. Surely there is some application that does it easily. This is for installation of Basic Linux, which comes on two floppy discs with ms-dos file systems.
I am looking for an option to convert .vob file to mp4 format. Command "ffmpeg -i S.vob x.mp4" is giving error message "[libfaac @ 01cac110] Unable to load libfaac.dll". I tried to convert in other formats like .avi with the same command and got success. Conversion is decreasing the quality like hell. Though size of the file after conversion is as big as original then why this bad quality. Some where I have read if I will not specify any argument it will keep the quality same but here it is not happening. Not sure why....
I basically just surf the net, email, chat etc. I have an older 1.6 Ghz P4 - 60 Gig Hd - 128Mb Nvidea GForce T1400 (i like the dual display, is that supported),I have had enuff of bill gates buy it again and again b*llsh*t, and have been curious about linux and am ready now to remove winbloze from my hard drive for good and was wondering where to start. Which version of linux,what preparations do I need to make in advance etc.so as to reduce my down time. I am a total newbie and know virtually nothing about Linux except that it is supposed to be a better OS than windows in many ways, but lacking in support from the big company's.
I scanned a document in color to PDF, and I don't want to re-scan it.
How can I convert this PDF document to grayscale (preferably without loss of other information)?
My usual toolset of doPDF, pdfsam and the Neevia online converter don't work here. I was thinking I could simply print to PDF and select the Grayscale color option, but doPDF doesn't have that option.
I'm using Windows, but I can probably handle a solution for any OS.
