15:52.10chouimatanyone know a tool to convert DVD to mp3 ?
15:53.32sjhillyou mean convert the AAC audio from a DVD to mp3....hmmm
15:53.36CosmicPenguintranscode
15:53.41sjhilllook for AAC -> MP3
15:53.51CosmicPenguinHeck, I think even mplayer will do it
15:53.59sjhilli was thinking that too
15:54.15CosmicPenguinOr rather, that mplayer command line encoder... the name escapes me at the moment
15:54.17chouimatsjhill: I have some show on DVD and I want to listen to the music next week
15:54.27chouimatend
15:54.30prpplagueCosmicPenguin: yea, there are several utils that will do it
15:54.49CosmicPenguinI personally prefer transcode, but the mplayer encoder is pretty user friendly
15:54.57sjhilli'm trying to find a RTP/RTSP recorder daemon application
15:55.18chouimatwill look thanks
15:56.00prpplaguean easy way is to use vcdrip
15:56.00prpplaguejust don't burn the vc
15:56.00prpplaguevcd
15:56.09chouimatprpplague: will look
15:57.49sjhillanyone ever try to read NTFS under any other architecture other than x86?
15:58.31CosmicPenguinugh
15:58.38CosmicPenguinNo, but it sounds painful
15:58.47prpplaguesjhill: i did awhile back, had to add a patch to the kernel, and was read-only
15:59.08prpplaguesjhill: but its been awhile, and i've slept since then

16:34.18CosmicPenguinWow - that Vonage thing is pretty cool
16:34.24CosmicPenguinits not tied to vonage is it?
16:34.41CosmicPenguinI mean, could you use it just as a POTS -> SIP gateway to use in a soft phone environment?
16:34.56CosmicPenguinCrap

18:08.23prpplaguemallum: nice little dev box

18:08.41prpplaguemallum: would have been a much bigger seller if they'd have taken a different approach
18:08.51prpplaguemallum: like installing a flash instead of OTP
18:09.07prpplaguemallum: and supporting other video/picture formats

18:44.07kergoth`zzzCosmicPenguin: oe's unionroot needs some sanity checking.  i.e. if it fails to chroot into the union and run init, for whatever reason, like the user rm -rf'ing /lib inside the union, it should fall back to a non-unionroot setup
18:44.29hardwireI can't for the life of me remember how I got unionfs working under /

21:42.22ShakaZuluCosmicPenguin, understood, but what is the going rate for one
21:42.31prpplagueShakaZulu: gonna have to be more specific than "a card"
21:43.43ShakaZuluprpplague, do hookers have more information than that now? :P

21:48.45ShakaZululol
21:49.32ShakaZuluCosmicPenguin, the traditional website market is going down, but the market for speciallized web-based systems is going up (offsetting business functions to an online presence)
21:51.01CosmicPenguinBut the number of web/database developers is going up rapidly
21:51.10CosmicPenguinmuch faster then demand
