I have a Humax HDPVR-1000C digital cable set-top box. Now I want to transfer some of the shows I had recorded with the box to a DVD. So I copy a movie from the Humax box to an external USB hard drive and then plug the hard drive to my OpenSUSE box. The hard drive now contains three files: one with the extension .hmt, one with the extension .nts and a fairly large file with the extension .ts.
After doing some googling I found out that the .hmt and .nts files are apparently related to Microsoft HighMAT technology. So it seems that the Humax box stores the recordings in M$ HighMAT format.
My question is that how do I fit these files to a DVD that can be played in a DVD player? VLC can play these files just fine, but really would like to burn them on a DVD.
just wondering is there a simple script to convert datetime to UTC format. I have been searching different forums but most answers are for converting UTC to datetime. For example what is a simple command/script to convert todays datetime to UTC format i.e. '2009-10-09 11:47:59'.
I have some .mp4 files. While open this file using vlc-player the resolution is fine. Then I convert this .mp4 format to .avi format using "ffmpeg". While open the .avi file using vlc-player the resolution is not fine.
What is the best way using Linux to convert a DVD from NTSC to PAL format? I have a DVD made from an HD recording using a video camera. Made a standard DVD by copying from the Camera to the DVD recorder [ergo NTSC].
Is there any way to convert *.flv and *.mp4 videos to *.swf format please? I have some videos downloaded with .....-dl that are in the above format. I would like to make them all into SWF files, so anyone can watch them in their browser, without having to find a suitable multimedia player.
I guess many guys got lots of eBooks in PDF and other formats, but some e-readers like Sony Reader, Barnes & Noble Nook, Hanlin eReader and phones/devices using Android only support specific formats with their default reader apps, especially newly-released and hot iPad. What's the best way to convert those PDFs to ePub (ePub is the only ebook format iTunes accepts)?
I use Linux for my everyday work but lately I've been faced with a trouble when I send out file printouts from my browser from my Debian system to (normally) window$ systems, where they are not readable. Is there a way for me to convert the postscript files into pdf format? Most window$ users will have some sort of pdf reader installed but I am still to find one user that has Ghostscript and Ghostview installed. where can I find the TTF fonts that are shipped with every standard installation of Debian? I'm sometimes forced to print files through a windows system and because the fonts loaded in that system are not the ones I use in Debian (URW Gothic L, as an example) I end up having my official documents disfigured. If I can carry around with me a ready-to-install fonts package I can get over this obstacle.
I am running my fedora box as a media server and my xbox (sorry) doesn't see mkv files and I have been looking for a while for a way to convert the mkv files to any format readable any ideas?
I have a PDF File here with upright ("portrait" format) pages, and I want to convert it so that each page gets "split" in the middle and becomes two wide ("landscape" format) pages.
Something like "print multiple pages on one page", only reversed
Is there any way to do such a thing with CUPS or something?
I'm trying to extract audio and then convert to mp4 format a bunch of flv files downloaded from internet. There are three files I intend to use ffmpeg in the following options:
ffmpeg -i input.flv -acodec copy output.mp3 and ffmpeg -i "input.flv" -f mp4 -vcodec libxvid -s 640x360 -b 768kb -r 25 -aspect 16:9 -acodec libfaac -ab 96kb -ar 44100 -ac 2 "output.mp4" So I started writing a script like this: #!/bin/bash -x cd /home/koli/exp

I have a bunch of text files that I created with mousepad in xfce. I didn't really think I would need to share them, but I guess I have to. Is there anyway I can batch convert these to rtf so they could be viewed on a windows client?
I am trying to use John the Ripper but it doesn't take regular MD5 hashes, only shadow MD5 hashes. For example this hash: 900150983cd24fb0d6963f7d28e17f72 (which, decrypted, is 'abc') within a text file, John the Ripper does not detect because it is not shadow format. How can I convert this MD5 hash into shadow format?
How to convert videos to mpg format so that I can make VCD using them. I'm using Slackware 12.2 Is there any software already installed? Or I have to install it manually?
Recently, my hard drive crashed. I was using XP and do not have my install discs (lost them 3 moves ago...). I make backups regularly and only lost roughly 3 days worth of material (nothing really important). On my other PC I've been running linux forever. I don't need windows and have installed a new HD in the PC and put fedora on there w/ no issues. Now historical email. There seems to be many workarounds for getting dbx files to mbox inside windows, but how would I accomplish this task without a windows install anywhere (Virtual installs are out as I do not have any install discs for windows anyways).
After a quick search, I only found one possible solution (in perl) and am looking for something that I don't have to program my self. I am a programmer by trade but have never programmed in perl (c++, FORTRAN, matlab, python... yes) and at this point, don't feel like learning new syntexs for this one problem (python has been my goto scripting language for everything linux...). Also if anyone has a link to a c++ lib(link to documentation?) that does the same thing... I might take a look at that and make a gui for it... then release it for others...
I see lots of threads on converting your CDs to MP3s, but I want to do the opposite. I want to burn MP3s into CDs that will play on older CD players that dont have MP3 support.
So how do I do it? I have Mint on this particular computer, which is like having Medibuntu already I think.
