| 16:09.41 | herlo | DexterTheDragon: I'm the backup source for many songs by Depeche Mode and TMBG :) |
| 16:09.43 | utahcon | When the price is right ($16.02/month?) I prefer to not steal music. |
| 16:09.55 | herlo | whoa! that's a lot of money |
| 16:10.13 | utahcon | $16.02/month gives me access to most all music available. |
| 16:10.17 | herlo | but there's so much good streaming music... |
| 16:10.29 | utahcon | And those that aren't available will probably be available in less than legal situations. |
| 16:10.41 | utahcon | I like to have control of my music |
| 16:10.45 | DexterTheDragon | I prefer to own the music I pay for |
| 16:10.46 | utahcon | it's a hang up I have. |
| 16:10.57 | utahcon | DexterTheDragon: with the right tools you can own any music :D |
| 16:11.12 | utahcon | everything I get through the subscription stays with me forever! |
| 16:11.24 | herlo | well, I prefer bands like Dave Matthews and NIN because they give away their albums in mp3. I'd go to their concerts any day before someone like Metallica |
| 16:11.36 | utahcon | Microsoft was even nice enough to add 10 free tracks a month with my subscription... which saves me from processing 10 tracks a month :D |
| 16:12.00 | herlo | on CD, which he has ripped to FLAC, then ogg |
| 16:12.13 | utahcon | herlo: I love bands that give it away... and I agree I would be more inclined to attend those concerts. |
| 16:12.22 | utahcon | FLAC then ogg? |
| 16:12.25 | herlo | utahcon: I should point out that you have failed to ignore me :) |
| 16:12.27 | utahcon | Where is the benefit |
| 16:12.32 | herlo | FLAC is what I store it in |
| 16:12.32 | utahcon | damnit! |
| 16:12.40 | utahcon | FLAC is huge! |
| 16:12.43 | herlo | ogg is what I use on my media player |
| 16:12.44 | utahcon | isn't it? |
| 16:12.50 | herlo | FLAC is also lossles |
| 16:12.54 | herlo | but Free |
| 16:13.06 | utahcon | lossless is cool... but I can't hear that well anyways :D |
| 16:13.21 | utahcon | I also don't listen to much music that isn't enhanced a little be a little loss |
| 16:13.27 | utahcon | s/be/by/ |
| 16:13.27 | herlo | I don't listen to it that way, but then I can convert it to any other format really easily |
| 16:13.40 | herlo | enhanced, nice |
| 16:13.50 | utahcon | OK... CD -> FLAC... space? |
| 16:14.08 | DexterTheDragon | storage is cheap |
| 16:14.25 | utahcon | DexterTheDragon: storage is cheap... convincing my wife of the same thing is hard. |
| 16:14.46 | utahcon | Seriously though... are we talking 700MB for a CD or what? |
| 16:15.14 | herlo | http://smolts.org/client/show/pub_07c39094-a499-4587-b183-4d74d5888af5 |
| 16:15.56 | herlo | utahcon: $100 for 1TB is cheap. I think FLAC is pretty close to CD size, it's not 700MB though, more like 250MB depending on the disk |
| 16:16.59 | utahcon | so... is there anywhere to acquire music in FLAC? |

| 17:54.35 | jsmith | utahcon: The only people who can use Google Voice at this point are those who already had Grandcentral accounts from way back when, as far as Iknow |
| 17:54.51 | utahcon | this is true... they are having people sign up for invites though |
| 17:55.01 | jsmith | utahcon: If/when they turn invites back on, I'd be happy to send you one |

| 18:49.28 | beandog | that sounds fun, actually |
| 18:49.30 | mindjuju | well, with fiscal stability, you can always address mental stability |
| 18:49.32 | beandog | get a grill |

| 20:11.29 | thebigdog | doesnt qb just have files |
| 20:11.35 | thebigdog | so you have to hook into the file |
| 20:11.37 | Dezertol | the best way that I've found to connect to quickbooks is via the QODBC |
| 20:11.49 | Dezertol | it's a third party odbc connector |
| 20:11.55 | Dezertol | that comes with the enterprise version |
| 20:12.01 | Dezertol | you can also buy it from there site |

| 20:29.31 | *** join/#uphpu fungus_ (n=olsonl@bromine.sosstaffing.com) |
| 20:31.11 | Dezertol | I prefixed the tables in mysql with QB_ |
| 20:31.14 | Dezertol | doh |
| 20:32.51 | Dezertol | correct |
| 20:33.53 | utahcon | 'Because plants crave Brawndo, and Brawndo has electrolytes.' |
| 20:34.52 | carmony | question, I have a php script that runs every 60 minutes |
| 20:34.55 | carmony | set on a cron |
| 20:35.16 | *** join/#uphpu mgeary_ (n=mgeary@166.70.44.49) |
| 20:35.31 | carmony | however, if the script runs past 60 minutes |
| 20:35.39 | carmony | I don't want 2 scripts running at the same time |
| 20:35.50 | utahcon | you can have teh script check if it is already running |
| 20:35.51 | carmony | is there a way for me to detect if a script is already running via PHP? |
| 20:35.58 | DexterTheDragon | make a pid file |
| 20:36.21 | DexterTheDragon | score |
| 20:36.41 | carmony | how do I do that? |
| 20:36.51 | utahcon | at the start of the script create a file |
| 20:37.00 | utahcon | something like... cronScriptName.pid |
| 20:37.13 | utahcon | but just before you create the pid... check for it |
| 20:37.25 | utahcon | let me try this again... |
| 20:37.48 | utahcon | in your script check for the pid... if the pid does NOT exist, create one... the script runs, then at the end of the script unlink the file |
| 20:38.17 | utahcon | Having a script that runs for 60 minutes seems excessive. |
| 20:38.55 | carmony | Dezertol, I totall agree with you on using something else |
| 20:39.16 | carmony | just I have a ton of legacy php code that I don't have time to rewrite that needs to get executed |
| 20:39.25 | utahcon | Do you think it will take 60+ minutes? Or do you just want to be prepared? |
| 20:39.51 | carmony | during high load it could go past 60 minutes |
| 20:40.00 | carmony | and multiple scripts running would be bad |
| 20:40.08 | herlo | woo! I might have found a way to stream video from vnc to icecast via libshout :) |
| 20:40.18 | utahcon | carmony: then I would do the pid |
| 20:40.33 | utahcon | herlo: from vnc? |
| 20:40.37 | carmony | what if the server gets reset |
| 20:40.41 | carmony | during the script |
| 20:40.42 | herlo | utahcon: yep |
| 20:40.48 | utahcon | neat |
| 20:40.48 | carmony | so that file is still there |
| 20:40.51 | Dezertol | carmony ya I'd agree with the pid idea till you had a chance to clean it up |
| 20:40.51 | DexterTheDragon | carmony: then you have other problems |
| 20:41.20 | herlo | utahcon: still have a few things to work out, but I think I can get the RFB stream and send it to gstreamer which can in turn send it to an icecast/shoutcast server :) |
| 20:42.59 | Dezertol | if anyone else want to bask in the joy that is qb.. check out this post -> http://www.qdeveloper.com.au/forum.php?homeinclude=topicdetails&forum_id=1&category_id=3&post_id=124 |
| 20:43.04 | DexterTheDragon | carmony: thats why its called a pid file, you store the pid of the running process, that way you can check to see if its actually running later |
| 20:43.24 | Dezertol | if that says anything about how well it's put together.. on the back end |
| 20:45.21 | Dezertol | you can't create an "Invoice" you have to create all the rows for the Invoiceline and on the last one flip a cache flag.. and it generates the Invoice.. but what that means is you have to have all of the data in all of the invoice lines and the invoice table it's self |
| 20:45.31 | Dezertol | this includes all the address and contact info |
| 20:45.37 | Dezertol | 125 columns ;-) |
| 20:45.44 | Dezertol | in the line item table |
| 20:50.41 | undertakingyou | Is there a way to have javascript return the number of objects in an array? In php it is count(), anything similar? |
| 20:50.52 | mgeary_ | length |
| 20:50.55 | *** mode/#UPHPU [+v mgeary] by ChanServ |
| 20:51.06 | mgeary | my_array.length |
| 20:51.34 | undertakingyou | sweet, I'll try it. |
| 20:52.23 | Dezertol | don't forget if it's a input field you need the file.value.length |
| 20:52.33 | Dezertol | field.value.length |
| 20:52.39 | Dezertol | i always forget the value part |
| 20:56.21 | herlo | utahcon: ezstream!!!!!! |
| 20:56.26 | herlo | http://www.icecast.org/ezstream.php |
| 20:56.36 | herlo | it's so going to work for what I want to do :) |
| 20:57.06 | utahcon | very cool |
| 20:57.41 | herlo | yeah, the only thing I am trying to figure out now is to combine the audio and video (from vnc) with gst-launch and then send it to ezstream :) |
| 20:57.59 | DexterTheDragon | streaming video? woot |
| 20:59.41 | xtrementl | why over vnc? |
| 21:00.03 | herlo | xtrementl: so here's why |
| 21:00.41 | herlo | I have a presenter (who will probably wish to present on his machine). I want to record what he is doing on his screen. VNC Seems like the logical choice. |
| 21:00.55 | xtrementl | true yea |
| 21:00.58 | herlo | it's acutally using a protocol called Remote Frame Buffer (RFB) |
| 21:01.24 | herlo | which can be captured, and with gst-launch, I can convert it into ogg-theora (or xvid or mpeg4, or...) |
| 21:01.48 | xtrementl | very nice and then from that point you can stream it however you need |
| 21:02.04 | herlo | and I have an audio stream that I'm going to be capturing already, so I just need to combine them into one, probably using gst-launch and then send it off to the icecast server using ezstream :) |
| 21:02.11 | herlo | xtrementl: right |
| 21:02.18 | xtrementl | very cool |
| 21:02.36 | DexterTheDragon | herlo: any reason to not use something like mindjuju has besides cost? |
| 21:02.59 | herlo | yes |
| 21:03.07 | herlo | mindjuju's setup doesn't stream |
| 21:03.11 | Dezertol | do you think the audio/video will lag |
| 21:03.20 | Dezertol | cuz I'm kinda thinkgin the video will be behind |
| 21:03.28 | herlo | plus it takes a bunch of time/effort and I'm looking for something *very* portable |
| 21:03.41 | DexterTheDragon | you can't get that video capturey thing to stream? |
| 21:04.04 | herlo | Dezertol: it might be, but you can adjust that with gst-launch or ezstream, plus you won't see the presenters face (at least not yet) |
| 21:04.34 | herlo | Dezertol: well, I'm sure you can. But he also doesn't do the video recording for real time streaming, he's only interested in posting it after the fact afaik |
| 21:04.44 | herlo | s/Dezertol/DexterTheDragon/ |
| 21:05.12 | herlo | DexterTheDragon: the main reason I don't like mindjuju's solution is the mere size |
| 21:05.39 | DexterTheDragon | yeah but I would think that you would be able to stream with that, then its as simple as just plugging a video cable into the presenters comp |
| 21:05.48 | herlo | I might be able to reduce it down some, but it seems like there ought to be a better/simpler solution imo |
| 21:06.32 | DexterTheDragon | I don't know what mindjuju does with all the computers I was just thinking of that vga capture box thing he has |
| 21:06.49 | herlo | DexterTheDragon: how do you think he captures the vga? |
| 21:06.56 | unum | gnucash was to complicated for what I wanted to do |
| 21:07.08 | unum | I eventually just started using ooocalc |
| 21:07.27 | DexterTheDragon | with that little box he plugs into the vga |
| 21:07.47 | DexterTheDragon | granted I'm not sure what kinda of software it requires to capture |
| 21:08.17 | macnewbold | for streaming video, you might consider something like meetingplace or some other screen sharing tool perhaps |
| 21:08.53 | herlo | macnewbold: does it run on all free software? |
| 21:09.08 | herlo | if not, it's less interesting |
| 21:09.30 | macnewbold | herlo: good call. dimdim I think is one I looked at |
| 21:09.37 | herlo | macnewbold: I can live with patented codecs (to a point), but I've not found something that works well in Linux |
| 21:09.41 | herlo | dimdim is *okay* |
| 21:09.42 | macnewbold | it's free, though as in root beer, maybe not as in speech |
| 21:09.46 | herlo | but it still doesn't do what I want... |
| 21:09.51 | macnewbold | yeah |
| 21:10.38 | herlo | it's close though, maybe next year when they get the functionality in there that I want :) |
| 21:11.10 | macnewbold | for streaming video from a powerpoint (if that's the extent of it) you could probably get away with a simple mjpeg in a web browser... updating every second or 3 |
| 21:11.12 | *** part/#uphpu mgeary (n=mgeary@166.70.44.49) |
| 21:11.26 | macnewbold | if it's video like from a camera pointing at the speaker, that wouldn't be so hot |
| 21:11.54 | herlo | yeah, it's mostly not slides |
| 21:12.01 | herlo | it's screencasting |
| 21:12.08 | herlo | not video of the presneter either really.... |
| 21:12.27 | herlo | if it were just powerpoint, I could use screencasting tools like istanbul and use send2shout |
| 21:19.41 | undertakingyou | So I am doing a slideshow using javascript. I am modifying e2_gallery to make it work. I am almost there. I am trying to set it up so that when it hits the last photo it will start back over at the begining. My code is here: http://pastebin.com/d45bb1f9e |
| 21:20.13 | undertakingyou | What I would expect is that it would loop. What is happening is that it goes from photo one to photo two, and then hangs. |
| 21:20.23 | undertakingyou | Any thoughts? Am I missing something obvious? |
| 21:22.19 | orsonj | I normally don't put function declarations inside other functions... |
| 21:24.01 | undertakingyou | orsonj: Are you saying with the setInterval? Or the count? |
| 21:25.10 | orsonj | I'm no javascript expert, but I'd probably put lines 11-21 before line 6 |
| 21:25.16 | dataw0lf | he's talking about setfirstimage() |
| 21:25.46 | xtrementl | @orsonj: i would agree with you there. |
| 21:25.57 | orsonj | But with javascript being all squishy and stuff, it might be the intended behavior, don't think so though. |
| 21:26.07 | dataw0lf | not when you're declaring a named static function. |
| 21:26.55 | undertakingyou | I can move that. That is the way the e2_gallery had it. |
| 21:27.03 | undertakingyou | I just extended the function with the interval. |

| 22:46.06 | Dezertol | hey what's the mac store/website that you guys have posted once in a while |
| 22:46.14 | Dezertol | it's some third party |
| 22:46.31 | Dezertol | they had a nas on there I wanted to look at and can't remember the name |
| 22:46.40 | macnewbold | macdocs? |
| 22:46.55 | macnewbold | a local store or an online store Dezertol? |
| 22:47.14 | Dezertol | online |
| 22:47.40 | macnewbold | hm |
| 22:47.49 | Dezertol | not macdocs it was some thing else |
| 22:47.58 | macnewbold | is it almost completely a mac shop or do they do pc stuff also? |
| 22:48.52 | Dezertol | it was a mix |
| 22:49.07 | Dezertol | but.. had a lot of mac stuff |
| 22:49.17 | Dezertol | think mac was even in the name |
| 22:58.45 | fungus | MacDocs is a brick/mortar store on State Street and about 1300 South |
| 22:59.35 | undertakingyou | another silly question. In javascript the statment var1=1; var2=var1; should return var2=1 right? |
| 23:00.30 | herlo | yes |
| 23:00.43 | undertakingyou | I can't figure out why it isnt' doing it then. |
| 23:01.59 | herlo | hmm |
| 23:38.39 | itimber | I'm out.... later guys |
| 23:38.55 | herlo | I think itimber is a bot |
