I've searched but I can't seem to find something that is specific to what I'm looking for. I need to create an ISO from a VIDEO_TS folder on my hard drive. How would I go about that?
View 9 RepliesIs there a way to autoplay a DVD when a (valid) VIDEO_TS folder is opened? Mos media players play VIDEO_TS folders but you have to start the player first and then select the folder. I am looking for a way so the media player(vlc) starts automaticly to play when I try to open the video_ts folder. A other option could be a right click option: play movie ith vlc (or something) Is this possible?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI used DVD::RIP to make an AVI out of a VIDEO_TS folder, however it compressed it from 4gb to 1gb and the quality is uh.. kind of bad. How can I make an AVI out of a VIDEO_TS "video folder" without losing much quality? Size of the file doesn't matter.

Seems this is one of very view disadvantages of a case sensitive OS. Has anyone an idea how I could tell vlc or kaffeine(xine) how to deal with that? I don't want to burn all my dvd's again with capitalised entries.
Some wierd issue here: when i sued verison 10.04 i could right click on the VIDEO_TS an select "open with Vlc". Now i'm running 10.04.2 and that option is gone. And it cannot be fixed either. Right click gives me what is shown in the screenshot (excuse me for the language, it is in Dutch).

But in my Desktop, every time i reboot there is one 'Downloads' dir in my home and I remove it every time (rmdir Downloads). But when I reboot, it is there again! So what is creating my Downloads dir?. I repeat, I have another laptop with the same ubuntu version (10.04) and I don't have this problem.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI need to share some files from my Ubuntu 10.10 box to others on my home network so I created a shared folder, right-clicked it and chose "Sharing Options", chose "Share This Folder" and then I was told that additional software is needed to enable sharing. I agreed and software was downloaded and installed. But when I clicked "Create Share" button and told Nautilus to automatically add permissions for others to access my folder, I was slapped with an error message saying "Failed to execute child process "testparm" (no such file or directory).
So how to proceed and get sharing working again? I installed Samba afterwards via Synaptic and assigned the folder for sharing, but I don't see the special "arrows-both-ways" sign for this folder.
I have recently installed Fedora 12 on a desktop PC and as my first experience of Linux, I am really impressed. I have now installed several packages and have reached a point where I would like to share the PC with other user (family members in the same house).My question seems so basic I am almost embarrassed to ask it but could some one explain the best way to create a local shared directory that could be used to store files accessible to everyone (e.g. music, photos, videos, documents etc.)There will be three users and as it is a family PC, they will all have full access.
Reading posts from various forums, I am little confused about what is the best way to proceed (i.e. what is Linux best practice). The simpler of the two methods is to simply make the directory using the mkdir command, followed by the chmod command to assign full access rights. Fore example if the local shared directory is called 'share'. The alternative approach assigns a group, a group administrator etc and then adds users to the group.
I'm using openSUSE 11.4 (x86_64) with KDE: 4.6.00 (4.6.0) "release 6"Everytime I visit a direcotorya hidden file ".directory" is created. How to disable that? Is There a possibility to disable that behaviour only for public_html directory

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have heard that creating hard link to a directory is not possible however when reading the man page of "ln" the "-d/-f" option says hard link directories ( super-user only). Thus this mean the super user i.e root can create hard link to directory and not a normal user , If yes then you . Even on specifying the above options I get a operation not permitted for a super user.

But I need to create an LDAP directory such that it will contain the user name and passwords for the users and when user is logging to any application he is authenticated from LDAP directory
e.g Users who need to browse the internet need to authenticate with username and password for access from the firewall (Juniper Netscreen) and similarly other applications like oracle ERP such that they will have only 1 username and password stored in LDAP directory and all other applications will search for the user name and password for authentication.
What's the easiest software to use (simplest command) that will read a VIDEO_TS folder (a ripped DVD) and transcode it? I don't want a GUI. mencoder looks like my best bet, but I just wanted to check before I start transcoding all my DVDs with it. Also, auto-cropping would be a great feature, but I don't think mencoder can do this unless you find this out prior to the transcode with mplayer.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm quite new to linux, but I've managed to grasp some basics. Now my intention here to create a virtual directory, which I resorted to creating an Image File so that I can mount it and have my folder have a dedicated storage. I will mount this image as a loop device. Well it's not much of a problem, but I would like to know whether this is suitable. Say I want to create a 25GB Image.
Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/home/disk-img/25GB.ext3 bs=1G count=25
Is this recommended? I'm using block size as 1G which is really huge, so I was wondering, if this is actually recommended. From what I read, some said that it's only advisable to use 4096k or lower, but what I found was that these suggestions are very dated (year 2003), and it is now 2010, so I would like to know if it makes any big differences.
is it possible to take a video_ts folder (ripped off dvd) and convert this into an avi file? Or multiple avi files would be fine
View 3 Replies View RelatedThis may be a rookie mistake, but I created a user (new user) in Linux on a Ubuntu system and didn't actually create the home directory for this user. Now, when I log in, it says there are problems... If I delete the path home/<new user> and try to log in the system tells me I can use root as home directory but I will likely experience problems, and then it won't let me log in. What is the best way to create this directory with the appropriate permissions? Should I just create another user and delete this one?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm using FC10 and I want to create a symlink to my movies directory in my home folder:
This is what I did:
I created in
/var/www/html
ln -s /home/username/movies movies
Then in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html"
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
<Directory "/var/www/html">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
<Directory "/home/username/movies">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Restart apache and then the test page is working.
The directory /home/username/movies has following permissions:
drwxrwxrwx 2 apache apache 4096 2009-03-05 23:43 movies
When trying to access my webpage at localhost/movies I get the 403 Forbidden Error.
Ok then, entering:
sudo -u apache ls /var/www/html
> movies
This works, sudo -u /var/www/html/movies returns the permission denied error.
As well sudo -u /home/username/movies
Is the user apache chrooted by default? SELinux is in permissive mode. What can I do?
I want to create a network similar to windows network on linux .Users should have profiles and can do network login similar to active directory on windows.
