I've got a Sony Handycam DCR-DVD101. When I plug connect the USB cable to my laptop (Ubuntu 10) it doesn't mount any storage device.
If I run usb-devices, I see:

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am running xubuntu 10.04 under wubi. I have a Sony Handycam 700x Digital8. It is plugged into the USB port and not recognized. Nothing shows for it with lsusb.
How do I get the files off it? And once I get them, how do I edit?
So I have heard that it needs to be resized and be a different file type I think. How can I do this in Ubuntu?

I've tried several different mirrors but get the same error with every one. Same result with ftp as well. Yesterday I upgraded to Wheezy and every package successfully upgraded, but today the problem started again.
Just bought a sony HDR-XR150 high def handycam. Thought since it had a USB connection (no firewire) that it would just mount as a drive and I'd be able to download the videos no problem. Well, it turns out it's a big problem... all the apps capable of talking to video cameras seem to only be able to use firewire. The camera does indeed mount as a drive but none of the video files I found seem to work... I get some video on some of the files from vlc but no sound and nothing seems to be able to transcribe the video. I'm currently on kubuntu 9.10 64 bit (2.6.31-20-generic)
Update: Found a series of .mts files on the camcorder. Nothing would read them properly except kdenlive -- seems to be the only thing that works!
I have a few mp3 files which are not tagged. Winamp has a nice feature which I think is called "autotag" and which is very good at finding out artist and title for files. I'd like something like this for unix, so that I could possibly get artists and titles for my untagged files. Do you know some program which does this?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have access to backup server via rsync protocol (only rsync, nothing else). Now, I want to fetch file from there (which is .tar.gz) and pass it directly to tar command, without saving the archive in local filesystem. To visualize, with ssh access I could:
ssh remote_host cat backup.file.tar.gz | tar xzf - And I will get uncompressed backup locally, without actually storing .tar.gz on local machine. Is it possible to achieve when using rsync?
I'm having a problem updating the cdrom. the error i get is Failed to fetch cdrom://Ubuntu-Netbook 10.04 _Lucid Lynx_ - Release i386 (20100429.4)/dists/lucid/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz Please use apt-cdrom to make this CD-ROM recognized by APT. apt-get update cannot be used to add new CD-ROMs. I tried using apt-cdrom, it tells me the commands and options, which i wrote down for reference, but still that has an error which is, E: Unable to stat the mount point /media/apt/ - stat (2: No such file or directory)
W: Failed to mount '/dev/sr0' to '/media/apt/'

Basically i want to set my laptop like this because i want to get involved with wireless security testing.
I am thinking about taking the Backtrack wifu course http://www.offensive-security.com/on...backtrack-wifu.
Now obviously it seems i will need Backtrack, so what is the correct way to go about installing? Should i try and purchase a cd to install or is there better ways?
Cannot wait to move away from Vista. I think it has been making me ill. ps.. i also want to learn BASH and Perl, so that is basically going to be the setup.

I stumbled onto an old FREESPIRE disk my bro sent me several years back -- and tried installing it on a Sony Vaio PCG FRV 28 I had crashed a few years back. The Sony bios is still aboard, but old enough to not have USB "booting" as part of the boot menu. I don't even know if one can easily hack into the BIOS on an old sony Vaio but changing the BIOS would solve lot of problems.
Does anyone have any ideas or certain knowledge on rewriting or modifying the Master Boot Code or an idea on making my USB [with Ubuntu or any other Linux implementation visible] and bootable to the bios on powerup?
I run Ubuntu 10.04 on a Sony FZ-VGN15C Laptop. On start-up of Ubuntu I get two error messages including '...Video : Failed...' (the message is too fast to be read completely) This might relate to the fact that my built in camera does not work with Skype or Cheese Webcam Booth. The webcam type is VGP-VCC4 by RICOH.

View 14 Replies View RelatedAnd I mean what the thread title is sayin', when new version of the distribution is released? But I don't think that it would be bad if they all would have some general promo video. I think of it as a nice way to promote your distro and I also think that that kind of promotion would attract more users. As an example, here's the link to Sabayon 5 promo video; [URL].
I find it to be very simple, short but at the same time great. And I like it very much. In my opinion, all that should be said, considering all the facts that is, was said in that video and in a very nice way. I think that there was no inner distro things in it for a reason, if you understand me. Anyhow, my vote goes for that kind of promotion, but sadly I have seen only few of that kind of videos on the net.
Whether I'm using mplayer, kaffeine, or vlc, I can't seem to play videos for some reason. For instance,
Code:
mark@debian:~/stuff/flashcrap/music$ vlc
VLC media player 0.8.6h Janus
[00000271] main playlist: nothing to play
Above I tried to play an flv video that I had, which I used to have no problem with, but now it does not work. I use Debian Lenny.
