Is there a way to manually force sync files? My files have not synced over a day and there's an "unsynchronized" emblem appearing over the Ubuntu One folder. The web interface for Ubuntu doesn't display the proper total size of Ubuntu One nor the current files/folders.
View 1 Repliesfor a x problem I reinstall the complete x packages. I remove some packages with force.Before this yum works perfect. Exact at this time we have problem with our internet connections and yum hangs somewhere when yum load the repositories and or start the update process.Now yum hangs at start from the command. I can start yum some times and no locking error is rise.strace brings:
stat("/var/lib/rpm/Packages", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=79855616, ...}) = 0
open("/var/lib/rpm/Packages", O_RDONLY) = 4

I've got Ubuntu One syncing a single 25MB folder on 4 computers. On one of these computers, the ubuntuone-syncdaemon process constantly pegs the CPU, using from 50-80% long after any sync-able files have been modified and successfully synced. The process is only using 8.9MB of RAM.
Specs:
Ubuntu 10.04 (lucid)
Kernel 2.6.32-24-generic
1000.8 MB RAM
Pentium 4 2.53GHz
Free disk space: 280.9 GB
System monitor shows 56.8% total RAM usage, 15.4% swap file usage.
I have to force umount my NFS shares to get my computer to suspend. And I suspend it regularly. I wrote this script:
Code:
sync
sudo umount -a -t NFS -f
sudo pm-suspend
sudo mount -a -t NFS
Is that safe to run regularly?
OS: ubuntu10.04 LTS running on latest oracle virtualbox. This works: I have opened a ubuntu one account. And I can log into that account. But I have to do so by: clicking 'ubuntu one' in top bar, and click 'account' in prompt that appears. Shouldn't log in take place automatically? Being logged in I'm able to make new folders. And appearently able to enter them (they are empty I quess) If I try to upload a file clicking 'upload file' in ubuntu one. A prompt appears and I choose the file to upload and click 'continue'. The prompt says "uploading" but nothing happens. If I choose a document folder and click 'mouse click right'. And then click 'sync with ubuntu one'. It prompts that it syncs the folders. But nothing happens.

I want to have my whole library in OGG because it's free and has a better sound quality. The thing is that i have an ipod nano 4th gen and I heard that you can't sync ogg files with an ipod. So, how can i get my music into my ipod without having two separate libraries (that would take too much space in my HDD)?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a music archive on several computers, from time to time do I add, remove or change the archive on one computer. To keep this changes will I have to copy the new version of the music archive to all the other computers.
is there a program that can sync the music files. Let say that I update the info in one music file, then will the sync program notice the newer version and replace the old file with the new files on all the other computers.
I guess I would need a dedicated server for this where all changes are stored with some kind of version number of the music archive. Since not having a server would make everything (I guess) much more complicated. All computers would have to communicate with each other to check for a new version instead of only communicate with one computer (the server).

View 5 Replies View RelatedI put all my dvds on my "media center" by converting them to .MP4 with handbrake.
Recently I saw that with a MKV file you could do soft subtitles. I tested a part of a movie, and the audio and video are very out of sync.
With MP4/burned in audio everything is ok...
Edit: Ow yes I'm using XBMC for playing it. MP4 + MKV files are both H.264, they have the exact same settings except for subtitles...
Weirdly Enough: I tried another video and at this one the audio is in sync....
I can't pinpoint when it started, but some time in the past several weeks, files have started going out of sync when I view them in VLC Media Player. Initially, sound and video are perfectly synchronized. After 10-20 minutes, it becomes obvious that the actors' mouths are not moving when I hear their lines.
If I stop playback, restart, and resume at the same point in the show, sync is again perfect for a while.
This is a really irritating problem. I cannot even get halfway through a half-hour TV show (really more like 22-26 minutes) without stopping & restarting.
As I stated, it's hard to point to a specific time when the problem started, but it could be connected to the upgrade to VLC 1.1.10.
Here's why I'm pretty sure this is not a problem with my files:
1) They are straight *.iso images of DVDs. No extra conversion/compression/processing so fewer opportunities for errors in the files.
2) The same files play back perfectly in Windows under all circumstances.
How did you fix it? Will we just have to wait for VLC 1.1.11, or is there a fairly easy way I can downgrade to version 1.1.9?

I have read couple articles here about ipod shuffle sync in ubuntu. Can't I just plug it into USB, mount the ipod shuffle as drive and copy my mp3 files over? What do I miss at the moment? (I haven't bought the ipod shuffe yet, that is why I can't test it right away. What is the deal with it?)

This works:
Established ubuntu one. Able to log into ubuntu one. Able to make folders.
This doesn't work:
When uploading files, it prompts "uploading". But never finish. And files do not get uploaded. To sync a folder on desktop and ubuntu one never works.
I have 2 Mounts /mnt/Movies and /media/Movies, mnt goes to a network drive that is mounted via cifs and media is also a network drive mounted via NFS. I normally keep drives in sync using rsync and have done so with these drives. But for some reason there's a bunch of files that on /media/Movies that just wont copy over to /mnt/Movies. I've tried touching the files and then running rsync with the whole file option it picks up the files need to be sync'd but they don't appear.
I've tried using cp on the missing files but the files just never appear but it does take about the right time for the prompt to come back indicating it would be copying the data. So my next idea was to use mc. I compared the 2 directories and it selects 83 files that are not in both folders, so then I tell it to copy them, and it comes back saying 'target already exists', if I overwrite or update they still don't appear. I've unmounted the shares, reboot the server and both network drives and run the network drives disk check but nothings helping. I'm trying to avoid deleting the folder and just rsyncing everything again.
I have about 1000 text files and I need to view each, and move it to a folder if it's the correct one. I can only do basic sorting by length/size, and I can't grep because the text is random. How can I do this besides manually openiing + saving each in gedit.I'm on Ubuntu Linux.I've already done all the sorting I can based on ize,wordcount,greps,date,etc. This is what's left over. I'm trying to find an easy way to view +save/ignore the rest.
View 6 Replies View RelatedAudio sync method. "Stretches/squeezes" the audio stream to match the timestamps, the parameter is the maximum samples per second by which the audio is changed. -async 1 is a special case where only the start of the audio stream is corrected without any later correction.Searching the net makes one believe that this command is just some sort of magic.People just put it in the line and it just works. Isn't that nice?
It says nothing about how to change the TIME the audio starts syncing. Like do I want it to start 5 seconds delayed? Or what about 5 seconds sooner?What if the audio gets more out of sync as the video goes on? Can I slip it a little at a time? What? No magic?No one mentions a file that already has badly synced audio.So what -async 1 really does is simply start the audio at the beginning of the file. LIKE AS IF THAT ISN'T STANDARD PROCEDURE?So what is the exact solution to syncing a messed up video? And why can't it just do the proper "timestamp" sync in the first place?No docs, no info and you are left out in the cold.
I have a question, that may sound silly. I have removed VirtualBox from my Ubuntu install. But the .VirtualBox folder is still existing with a virtual drive of nearly 10 GB. Can I manually remove the folder .VirtualBox with rm -rf without any unwanted side effects?

I then used firefox to browse the updates directories (at download.fedoraproject.org and some of the other mirrors) that were reporting the 404 errors, and the errors are correct, the files just do not exist (well not yet anyway).So are the updates repo files out of sync at that end or have I missed something obvious that I should also have deleted from the yum setup.
Can anybody tell me how I can synchronise files between two computers in a network that have been modified or created within the last 60 days?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for a way to sync directories between two computers, in a "two-way" fashion. Basically, I have a laptop and I have a desktop, and I want to keep a particular directory synced between the two machines. The easiest thing would be to have some kind of networked filesystem, but obviously this won't work because the laptop may or may not be connected to the internet at any moment. At any time I might be editing files on the desktop or on the laptop, and when the laptop is connected to the internet, I'd like all files on both machines to be synced to their most recent versions.
I thought I could do this with rsync but now that I've looked into a bit more it seems like it works only for "one-way" syncing. In other words files are synced from a server to a client or vice versa, but not both at once. First of all, am I right about that? And second, is there a program that will do what I want to do? OK, I guess you could do it with some SVN kind of thing but that seems like overkill. I guess if there's nothing out there it shouldn't be too hard to write a script myself to do it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set up a synchronization with unison and iwatch to (more or less) instantly sync files upon change in a directory tree. iwatch calls unison like this:
Code:
unison /home/foo/vhosts/foo/my_vhost/bar.html ssh://server.tld//srv/www/vhostsfoo/bar.html -batch -terse -ui text -owner -group I would expect unison to sync all files between the two servers. However, that is not the case. Everything works fine as long as the files are only created/changed/whatever on the server running unison. If a file is created on the server that unison is synchronizing to, it gets deleted the next time unison is called.
For example:
Code:
on the host running unison:
$ cd /home/foo/vhosts/foo/my_vhost
$ touch foo.bar
-- sshing to remote host ---
$ ssh remote.com
[code]....
$ unison /home/foo/vhosts/foo/my_vhost/foo.bar ssh://remote.com//srv/www/vhosts/foo/foo.bar -batch -terse -ui text -owner -groupI expected that both files get synchronized - foo.bar from the unison server to remote.com and hello_world.html from remote.com to the server running unison. Instead, hello_world.html gets deleted.
I've been working a while on this and don't seem to be able to figure it out. Maybe it's only an argument to unison to rectify it but I couldn't find anything adequate in the manpage either.
I have unison running on both my laptop and desktop, both use Ubuntu 10.04 (AMD64), I have my unison script set up to copy new files, but when it have 2 files already in place I have to manually tell it how to deal with it (either copy laptop->desktop or visa-versa). I would prefer to just run unison and click go, or possibly have an icon on the desktop I can click to automatically run it. how to set it in the script file to copy the newest file over the older file, whether it be laptop -> desktop or desktop -> laptop?
I have it set up so I can do work on my desktop machine, then when I want to leave my desk to work elsewhere, I run unison on the laptop and synchronize my Firefox bookmarks, emails and schoolwork so I can continue from where I left off and when I get back I run unison again to synchronize all my changes back to the desktop.
I use jpilot on opensuse 11.3 64bit to sync pim data with my Palm Treo 680 via bluetooth. This worked fine until today. Now I get the following error message when I try to sync: Syncing on device bt: Press the HotSync button now dlp_ReadSysInfo error Exiting with status YNC_ERROR_PI_CONNECT Finished.
The last successfull sync was on the 20th October and today is the 24th October. I did not change any settings in jpilot or on my palm device. So I guess there must have been an update of opensuse which causes this error. But I do not now how to look up the updates during this period or how to undo them. Was there an update between the 20th and the 24th Oktober, which might affect either jpilot or bluetooth functionality?
I've discovered Firefox Sync a while ago, and it's absolutely awesome. Now of course I'd like most of my software to work this way! So is there a way to get the same behavior with Thunderbird?
