Hi am using winff, as converting video is a mystery to me. I have several avi files well about 26 of them. at about 8gb. now i have to convert them into avi again! so my divx dvd machine can read/play them.
I was wondering if I could compress them so they'd fit onto one dvd?
at present I select the 16:9, would the anamorfic be smaller? would it expand properly on my cheep divx dvd machine? I don't mind using the command line.
I have many home movies that I converted from VHS tapes to AVI files. I have it setup where I can watch it on my TV, but my hard drive is getting full because of size and quantity of AVI files. What I would like to do is make a file server to house all of these movies, but I have a couple of P4 2.0GHZ processor and couple 160GB Hard Drives. I would like to know if I can combine multiple computers and create a cluster or private cloud, combine the hard drive and processor power and set it up that way...in a sense a massive powerful file server. I am thinking of expanding this to include my word documents and pictures as well.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm tryin' to convert media files to other formats using winff.But nothing happens ! I mean a terminal window popping up and then nothing happens to the files , I tried many formats like (wmv,avi,flv,mp3,wma etc.) to others , and I have all prerequisites . I'm not sure
- ffmpeg (Multimedia player)
- Gstreamer ffmpeg video plugin (Codecs to play formats)
- libmp3lame
- libmp3lame (DEV - I thought that this could be useful)
and this is an image off winFF on my desktop ,
Rather simple question, but is there a way to make an archive (simple tarball, no compression needed) out of a very large file and split it into parts? Basically I need a ~1GB file in 25MB pieces.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi have a question about the best choice for a filesystem: We have in our company a productive webserver running debian with nginx webserver to serve images. The number is about 15 million, they are around 2kb or 3kb of size each and they are stored under some subdir in /home with a hashed subdirectory tree which is 2 leves deep. the images are copied with nfs from some other machine time to time. We get high load when this copying is running. Currently we are using ext3, and considering moving to jfs, cause its relativly low load impact, but i am still courios about the performance. I think serving lots of images is often practiced thing, so i would be interested what others are using as filesystem in this scenario, or if someone could make a recommendation for our case.

View 2 Replies View RelatedHere's my situation :
I had a samsung 1TB HDD that I used for storing data, on an xp machine, so it was formated as NTFS.I moved this HDD to another machine and installed Freenas on it, and the installation worked fine (fyi, I used the tutorial posted here :[URL]..During the installtion, Freenas installed it's system files to a new small UFS partion. After finishing the setup, I realised that I had changed the file system of the other partion (980gb, previously NFTS) to UFS and now I don'T know how to go back. I had about 400gb of data on it and I'm pretty sure it's still there, but don't know how to get it back.
I tried messing around with recovery software such as R-Studio, and I was able to see some of my files so I know they're still there. After quite a bit of googling around, the only solution I seem to find is using gparted which is a tool to modify partions file system without loosing data, but I'm afraid to use it.
So is there a way to browse NTFS data on a UFS partition and convert it so FreeNas can see my files ? Or is there a way to put the partition back to NTFS so I can back up my data to another drive before I lose something valuable ?
Samba seems to crash and come back after some seconds if I copy a lot of small files in a short period of time over the network. How do I fix it?
I have Ubuntu 9.10 Server 64bit running on a D945GCLF2 board sharing two 1TB ext4 formatted HDDs to my Windows PCs using samba. I've been having an issue with reading or writing files through samba. It happens during copying operations or checksumming, anything that reads or writes MANY small files in a small amount of time. I am pretty sure the problem has to do with my server because the server has run on two different LANs in different homes and will crash from activity with any of several other PCs. There is no crashing if I access the files through SSH, although when I do that the max transfer speed is less than 1MB/s.
When I induce the crashing, there is absolutely no output to the server terminal.
As an easy access example of something that will crash samba, extracting Cinebench R11.5 to the server will do the job. It always fails.
i want to make a script that change the names of files and folders into small letter because they are all in capital and more than 1000 fileit is impossible to do that with my hand
View 14 Replies View RelatedI need to process billions of small files using bash shell commands with limited memory size (256MB). If any of those files contain certain "keywords", the file will be removed. I tried with command:
find . -type f -exec grep -i -l -H "keyword" '{}' + | xargs rm -rf
where all files are located within the current directory. But the command above failed in "out of memory".

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 10.04 and recorded a screencast with gtk-recordMyDesktop. Upon completion of the recording I attempted to convert the OGV file to an AVI, for ease of editing purposes, using WinFF.(And yes, I have installed libavcodec-unstripped-52) The result was an incredibly annoying error message Which stated:

I downgraded from 11.04 to 10.10 due the problems, one thing I don't like is that Ubuntu dosen't give the latest updates of most software if the OS isn't the latest, such as LibreOffice, Firefox, WinFF etc. is there a way to get the updates to do that?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am running 10.10 64-bit and am trying to get an option in WinFF to convert an MPEG file to an iPod compatible video. All of the HOT_TO guides I could find involve installing the FFmpeg libraries, which I have done as well as I could have.The problem is that within WinFF, I don't see anything different in the "Convert To ..." drop-down. The Wiki I am reading tells me to select iPod, but this isn't available.What do I need to do to get this to be selectable?

I switched over from Windows to Linux. I have an external drive that has basically just media files on it. Are there any advantages to converting this to ext3, or should I just leave it as ntfs3?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere are quite a few threads in this forum on how to convert a DJVU file into a PDF (among which this thread the instruction of which I followed.) I converted a DJVU file by printing it to a PS file from the Document Viewer. Then I printed again the PS to file into a PDF from that same application. The second phase took more than 24 hours and resulted in a scanned PDF of less than 500 pages with a size of 315 MB! I have many books of more pages which come down to 1 MB only. What happened in the process to make it so damn slow and so inefficient? Is there a good alternative (not ps2pdf because it provides the same result)?

I used Sound Converter to convert a few artists tracks from flac to mp3. I've done this successfully in the Windows environment many times. Now when I go to play the tracks on my Creative Zen, they are not there but when I look at the tracks that I transferred over, in the file window, they are there and they are MP3's but my Zen isn't recognizing them. What's going on? All other artists that aren't converted MP3s are fine.
