This is my main problem, I have some .mp4 videos and want to play it on a regular DVD player, but when I converted it, using avidemux, the DVD player doesn't even know the video is on the USB drive.
I encoded this videos on .mp4 to save some space, but now I need it on .avi.
I recently ran into a problem though. using mav. meerkat I have figured out how to rip dvds using acid rip, medibuntu and some ..... tutorials. Then I tried to put them on my ipod using gtkpod. when this did not work I did some research and realized the video files needed to be converted. At first I tried avidemux, it seemed to work but when i put them on my ipod (video white 80 gb) I tried to play them and the screen just went black and several seconds later was sent back to the menu. Then I tried winnff, but there was no ipod preset only a rockbox ipod preset which I tried with the same result. I then tried openshot using these parameters -ipod libx264 libfaac 1.25 Mbit/s -> 1.5 Mbit/s 128 kbit/sto160 kbit/s Quarter Square NTSC 320x24029.97HzAVCHDQuicktime 7Still same result. I have gotten purchased mp4 videos to work using gtkpod, so I am assuming it is a conversion problem. Also the converted mp4 I made using openshot plays fine on banshee player
View 9 Replies View RelatedI 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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently in the process of seeing if I can finally make the switch to linux from windows. So far everything is good, except for my MP3 Player. I use a Samsung Intensity with a 16gb microsdhc card, connected to my computer through a USB. The problem is that Ubuntu doesn't recognize it. Now rhythmbox will recognize it if I have it set to MTP mode, but you ubuntu itself never mounts it. I need it to mount so I can drag and drop files into specific folders on the card. Otherwise I doubt rhythmbox will know where to put the files. The addition of another person to the linux family depends on it. Since I only want to use windows for certain games and not any more than that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI created a Video DVD using DeVeDe 3.16.8. I selected some .mkv files, created menus and the program created .iso files which I burned using the Burn Image selection in Brasero 2.30.2. The resultant DVD worked perfectly in my PC under Ubuntu as well as Windows XP. However, when I pop the disc in my standalone DVD player connected to my TV, the player gives a "NO DISC" error - no joy.

I've been trying to play audio CDs in the CD/DVD drive on my machine but I can't get ANY CD Player software to recognize the drive. However, data CDs are read just fine. If I want to play a CD, I have to use the burner drive which is readily seen by all the audio CD software (KsCD, Kaffeine, etc.). I've added myself to the audio, video and cdrom groups but to no avail (I kinda knew it was fruitless to begin with but tried it anyway). I'm running 11.2, 64-bit mode and aside from this minor (but maddening) glitch, I've been very impressed with the distro. I don't want to use the burner for spinnin' platters.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI installed Fedora 10 on a Toshiba Laptop, where I had been successfully running Ubuntu for over a year. The newest iteration of Ubuntu was giving me problems, and the press was saying that Fedora 10 was pretty good, so I tried it.
Fedora 10 froze after any application was loaded. I couldnt correct it. I installed Fedora 9, and am no longer having that problem. However, I cant run any multimedia items on the computer. Particularly videos, including wmv, mpeg, or rm formats. This was not a problem in Ubuntu. I can't find any player or codec that will allow me to play these videos on Fedora 9. Can anyone suggest a solution for this?

View 6 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)?

2) If not, is there a way to convert Windowblinds themes into the GTK2.0/Metacity format?
I did some searching for the first question for him, and haven't found any that are very close or that work well. To be honest, I haven't even found one that looks remotely like it. I do have to say, however, that I myself am interested in the second question. Is there a way to convert a Windowblinds .ZIP or .WGA archive to the format of GTK2.0/Metacity? In doing some looking around, I am certain that with a LOT of work, I could port the Windowblinds theme into GNOME, using some image editing and file movement. But is it really necessary?
