My advice to anyone is don't travel with 3 grumpy, confused Filipino sister-in-laws who have lived in Australia for 20 years and can't decide to act as Filipino's or Australians. It makes for a crap holiday. You're a very lucky and fortunate man John. Their adjustment is confusing for them as well ...

Lobster, Nice video! Love your accent and style of speech. I too am awaiting (anxiously) the latest version of Drec. DPUP has really gotten my interest up since I recently tried 477 B2. It ran superbly on my 'old' machine. Thanks for the links above. I've bookmarked them for future reference. 4.4 (l...

Gposil, You're very kind. Many thanks. I was running my frugal install of media-pup from a small partition (1.8 GB) so, thinking that perhaps this might pose a limitation, relocated my install to another drive partition of 20+ GB. Then I ran drec again to see if it made any difference, but, alas it ...

drec with frugal Media-Pup

Gposil, Many thanks for this very useful pet package. Thanks to scOttman for the convenient link for the Libtheora package. I've installed drec to Media-Pup and have found that it works well, up to a point. When recording a sizable stream, once the total raw data capture approaches 180 MB, I get a b...

Someone got out of bed the wrong side this morning? Nothing egotistical or impolite about my pronouncements - that's a personal slur and has no place here.

Fat32 4GB limitation

The FAT32 solution turned out to be much simpler than I had imagined it might be. Instead of 'ripping' the DVD into a massive VOB, make a 'Mirror Copy.' The Mirror Copy will be a set of VOBs identical to the original DVD structure and all other files present. Delete all unecessary files, in order to...

Attitude

Doubt it. Usability. Don't shoot the messenger. 0.5s constitutes foot-shooting. Too smart for your own good?

But that's exactly what you're doing. You've made it impossible to apply different coding style. Without those stupid comments it would be as simple as typing #indent -kr ppkg.c new-ppkg.c We would like to believe that for programmers and coding nothing is impossible. Finding the 'solution' is not ...

68 last month. For those attempting to cultivate the beer belly bulge; for some of us it begins to 'grow' at about age 65 or so. Quit drinking beer about 15 years ago (over my lifetime quota by about 6 times!) and it grew out anyway. Sort of a delayed action? Naaah. Probably just way too much ice cr...
