I've got a short mp3 file from the BBC's League of Gentlemen comedy show. In the clip, Papa Lazarou tells his dwarfs to put a poster in the local shop. Then he says "Tell them the circus is coming to town."I'd like to grab that sentence "Tell them the circus is coming to town" so I can make it into a ringtone for my phone or something.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have been using windows operating system for a long time now, but I am not well familiar with linux. Whenever I used to install Windows, I used to install the corresponding audio drivers(in order to listen to the music). The problem I am facing is that I do not know how to install the audio drivers(if they really exist in linux Mint 10 operating system). As a result I am not able to listen to any audio file due to lack of corresponding audio driver programs. make proper configurations settings so that I can listen to audio files in Linux Mint version 10.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a basic install (i.e., nothing fancy, no compwiz or whatever) of 10.4 (64 bit) on my computer, running gnome desktop. I find it very difficult to "grab" the edge of a window, when I want to resize it longer or wider and frequently I just wind up selecting the window below it when I try to drag it wider or longer. Is there a way to increase the border area in which that arrow-pointing-to-edge (as opposed to the usual cursor) appears to make it easier to grab the damn thing?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to grab some text from a directory listing in a bash script, and then apply that text to future commands in the same script. For instance, say I do "ls -lais /media/Movies" and get:
2147560409 712544 -rwxr-x--- 1 root users 729645056 1999-03-07 11:45 Young Guns (1987).avi
2147560410 712400 -rwxr-x--- 1 root users 729497600 2002-01-09 01:11 Young Guns II (1990).avi
Then say I want to grab the year from this output and then use that information as part of the command to modify the file timestamp, such as:
touch "Young Guns (1987).avi" -t 198701011200
touch "Young Guns II (1990).avi" -t 199001011200
So that the result of ls -lais is:
2147560409 712544 -rwxr-x--- 1 root users 729645056 1987-01-01 12:00 Young Guns (1987).avi
2147560410 712400 -rwxr-x--- 1 root users 729497600 1990-01-01 12:00 Young Guns II (1990).avi
Anyway, that's just one example, but I often find myself needing to do this type of thing, and I'm sure its possible, just not really done enough scripting recently to know how to do it.
What's the best command to use to grab just a regular expression from some text input? I've got is some input is in the form:
<uninteresting><start-marker><good stuff><end-marker><uninteresting>
I can construct a RE to match <start-marker>.*<end-marker>, but is there a utility that would return *just* the <good stuff> I'm interested in? I realise that the alternative is something along the lines of:
Code:
cat <input-file> | awk -F'start-marker' 'print ${2}' | awk -F'end-marker' 'print ${1}'
but it would be better if I could do it all in one go.
Here's the scenario, rsync is running in RMT on tty2. I (LCL) am connected to RMT remotely as root over ssh. Is it possible to grab output of RMT's tty2 on my LCL? I don't want to redirect RMT's tty2 out to my pts, just get a mirror output.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to grab wiki code from a wiki page using wget. Running this grabs HTML:
wget -O wikihtml.html [URL]
The first attempt at getting wiki code was to pretend to edit, and run:
wget -O wikiedit.html [URL]
but of course that grabs GUI HTML. I thought perhaps the text inside the text box would be in tact, but HTML is througout. How to get just the raw wiki code?
I'd like to write a C/C++ program, that would grab content of window (in form of pixmap), which belongs to another application and do something with it. However, I ran into problems already at the beginning. In all toolkits I have searched through, I only found one function that claims to do what I want, namely XGetImage from Xlib. However, among other parameters like Display, coordinates, etc., it requires a Drawable. How do I specify a Drawable, that would correspond to the window I want to grab content of? Is there any easier way to achieve this?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to display an un-intrusive graphical dialog to notify the workstation user that a bash script has finished running. It should be "top level", so visible to the user when it appears but should not grab focus, so the user can continue working in the current window and dismiss the notification when convenient. Researching gdialog, xdialog, xmessage and zenity it seems none of them can do this; they all grab focus.

I can not get my desktop running Ubuntu 9.10 to recognize my SANSA clip music player. When I plug it in (nothing), No icon on desktop, nothing in Nautilus. I've verified the USB ports are working by plugging in thumb drives and my I-pod.
When I hook the SANSA to my wife's laptop running Ubuntu 8.04 it works great no problems. I must have a setting wrong on my computer, but have NO idea how to fix it.
I'm on kubuntu 10.10 and kdenlive 0.7.8 and since the upgrade to 10.10 Kdenlive crashes whenever I import a clip with a segfault.

View 9 Replies View Relatedsomebody gave me a dvd of my little music group, and i used a ubuntu application to edit out two clips (i think i used avidimux--it was about a year ago). it produced a clip in avi format, which is not accepted by anything. i'd like to upload it to my facebook or even videos, but need to convert it. i've tried about everything, but have had no success. i just downloaded winff and tried that. the conversion window produce a lot of information ending with "unknown encoder 'libx264'," whatever that means.
does anyone know how i would convert a clip from avi to mpeg4? it's driving me nuts.
