If Xorg cannot automatically recognize your monitor's capabilities, you have to specify its horizontal and vertical refresh limits manually in the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Otherwise Xorg will use...

Your default device was configured to use dmix despite the fact that PulseAudio was installed and running. PulseAudio occupies the hardware audio device so that dmix can't access it. That's why the...

Let's run some tests to find out what's wrong. Open a terminal window and enter this command:

aplay -D default -t raw -c 2 -f S32_LE -r 48000 -d 1 -v /dev/zero
This will play back one second of...

Excuse me, but this is totally backwards. Removing ubuntu-desktop does not break system integrity. Bypassing the package manager by replacing /usr/bin/pulseaudio does.

You don't seem to understand...

No, it will send the 32-bit version along with nspluginwrapper.


Because the 64-bit version has not been released yet.

They play together PERFECTLY if you remove PulseAudio.

And this is only H.264 Baseline Profile, i.e. the bottom end of H.264 compression efficiency.

Here's an example from the top end: The new Wall Street movie trailer, 1280x544, encoded at 1800 kb/s...

They do, unless Compiz is enabled. Compiz is well known for conflicting with OpenGL applications. Not only Flash, but also Blender, Second Life and others. If you enable Compiz, performance in all...

Oh really? What about the people who don't come here because they wipe Linux off their hard disks and tell their friends what a pile of junk it is?

I think the reason why Reinhard is unable to confirm the bug is because he is using libavcodec52 instead of libavcodec-extra-52 (multiverse). I already mentioned this in the other thread.

I have...

Interesting indeed.

Each vulnerability in a base library would require StaLi users to redownload the entire distribution, because all applications would need to be relinked and redeployed.

And...

Choose "default" for ringing and "plughw:1" for sound in/out in Skype preferences.


Yes. The link was in Temüjin's post that you quoted.

I'm not saying that your code is wrong. But your bug report will have more impact if you make confirmation of the bug as easy as possible.

This command should yield the same result:

ffmpeg -vframes 10 -i matrix-300-AQ.ogv frame%d.ppm
As you have seen in your bug report, people may tend to dispute the validity of your code rather...

I don't think he's capable of using anything else. It's obvious that he's one of those guys looking for one-click instant gratification. If you tell him "Look, it's easy! All you need is this script...

Nonsense.

Take a look at this statement:


This is from the swfdec wiki FAQ. Does it sound familiar to you? These guys have exactly the same problems making video playback smooth in the...

No, pick up the latest version.

MPlayer isn't one of those freeware/shareware apps for Windows which get slow and bloated over time. Its performance has improved, not degraded. If there are...

DownloadHelper is a useless tool for the following reasons:
It doesn't work with all video sites, sometimes even stops working with YouTube. It's slow. Once you watched a video, the file is cached...

The proper extension here would be either .flv (Flash Video) or .mp4 (MPEG-4 media; Flash can play these too). But in Linux the extension doesn't matter anyway. Media players and file managers will...

OK, I've posted this many times before, but here it is again:

sudo apt-get install gstreamer0.10-alsa gnome-alsamixer
sudo apt-get purge pulseaudio gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio vlc-plugin-pulse...

That tip of the day is total nonsense, clearly a case of the blonde trying to teach the blind. It basically says that if you convert any MKV file to a 1800 kb/s Xvid AVI, the result will be 35% of...

What do you mean by "collapsed"?

ubuntu-desktop is an empty package. Removing it will do exactly nothing to Gnome. I've been running Karmic without ubuntu-desktop for months, and Jaunty before...

OK, I should have said:

Nothing can become a standard until it works for the vast majority of users.

As dixiedancer said, deploying beta software, especially as core elements of the system,...

The competing product is HTML5. I am still waiting for a link to the benchmark that you talked about in post #47.


What legal hoops are you talking about?

You are overestimating the...

The MKV files you are trying to convert have already been compressed using a much more efficient codec. DivX/Xvid cannot make them smaller without severely degrading their picture quality.
