    [SOLVED] Re: Command Line to bulk convert WMV to MP4

    Actually I'd only consider 18 a high quality CRF factor if the source is high quality Blu Ray or similar. For DVD quality I'd go 16 or lower.

    As mentioned, you can't convert without losing...

    Re: Guitar and chords with songs included.

    I did a search out of curiosity and found little, which did not surprise me. Linux just can't compete with Android for app development, and the fact that Android is Linux based doesn't matter.

  3. Re: I2s Audio Mode with AlsaLib installation

    First thing I'm wondering is why you feel you need to implement I2S audio in Mint just because you are dual booting with Windows? I see no connection there, and this looks like the sort of thing...

    I suspect that WebGL isn't working, which isn't all that rare in Linux unfortunately.

    Re: Zorin and Brother MFC-8220 printer

    I'd suggest looking at your kernel version (uname -r in the terminal). Then look for a solution for the Ubuntu release that uses that kernel.

    However, and you may not want to hear this, you may...

    Re: Kaku Audio Streaming App

    I just checked their site out of curiosity. There are dl links specified as 'Linux' but they do not bother saying whether they are for Debian based or RPM based or anything similar. This IMO is not...
  7. Re: Handbrake and encoding a phone 720p video

    Another suggestion: some of the best advice I've ever seen for getting decent compression and quality:

    If you're going to reduce the bit rate (inevitable if you want to shrink the file size)...
  8. Re: Handbrake and encoding a phone 720p video

    RPi? You mean raspberry pi? I don't know anything about its decoding capabilities.

    Video encoding is complicated, and there is no good way to simplify it because there aren't any magic quality...

    Re: Where to find video driver?

    Presumably there is something called additional drivers or driver manager. Try that.

    Better yet, take geoffrey's advice. Install Ubuntu. I'm actually a Mint user now but that's really because...
  10. [Zorin] Re: What to actually install for drivers? (GTX 970)

    Since it's ubuntu based there should be something called additional drivers or driver manager or something similar.

    [lubuntu] Re: No Avidemux anymore since 16.04

    I suspect it isn't sufficiently tested yet. This sort of thing is not unusual with a new linux release.

    I was thinking replay gain too or something similar. Do you have volume normalization enabled on the program you're getting distortion with? A lot of mp3s that people dl were normalized when...
  13. Re: "Fake" MKV file doesn't play, but does in Windows

    According to your other posts you're actually using Mint, so while you may get suggestions to install ubuntu-restricted-extras, I wouldn't install them on a Mint system. BTW I have 2 Mint installs....

    You are simply not going to get any Intel video drivers in Additional Drivers. Intel doesn't really do binary drivers. This ain't Windows. There are linux driver downloads for intel (and AMD)...

    "Updating drivers" seems to be the kneejerk reflex reaction of Windows users. It doesn't actually work very well in Windows and definitely doesn't work very well in linux.

    Re: Converting .MTS to mpeg or avi

    H.264 video isn't useless in Avidemux if you just want to convert. I've done this many times, generally to mpeg-4 ASP (xvid). Just select the safe mode. BTW Mpeg, mp4 and avi are not formats,...

    [ubuntu] Re: Ub 14.04 what's a good sound card?

    Maybe because pulseaudio is irrelevant to whether your sound card works? If it's using pulseaudio it is also using alsa. It is always using alsa.

    You shouldn't install multiple DEs anyway. It'll make your system less reliable. Very common beginner mistake.

    Re: Music file player (flac)

    Trying to keep your system FOSS and wanting to play media is IMHO a hopeless cause. You think Firefox (or any other browser useble by most users) contains no closed source code?
