QDVDauthor and creating your own dvdsPosted 1 year, 11 months ago on March 15, 2007 by yerma Fun Stuff, Just Stuff Have had some real problem creating disks using qdvdauthor on kubuntu so sorted out the following set of instructions to keep myself right for the future:
It's not failed yet so hopefully it'll work. Also, apparently this is the right mencoder setup for dvd's - link to the full article in the below post. mencoder -oac lavc -ovc lavc -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -vf scale=720:576,harddup -srate 48000 -af lavcresample=48000 -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg2video:vrc_buf_size=1835:vrc_maxrate=9800:vbitrate=5000: ARTIFICAL LINE BREAK - DELETE ALL OF THIS keyint=15:aspect=16/9:acodec=ac3:abitrate=192 -ofps 25 -o OUTPUTFILE.mpg INPUTFILE.avi ---Comment More Radio 1Posted 1 day, 1 hour ago on March 6, 2007 by yerma Just Stuff, Links, radio1links Vernon Kaye - Sat ---Comment Moyles Listen againPosted 2 days, 3 hours ago on March 5, 2007 by yerma Just Stuff, Links, radio1links I find it very annoying when listening to the listen again shows on BBC Radio that I am unable firstly to play in a standalone realplayer and secondly unable to rewind/fast forward etc. After a very small amount of digging I found the following URL's very useful: ---Comment Radio 1 listen againPosted 3 days, 9 hours ago on March 4, 2007 by yerma Just Stuff Have the links for most of the radio 1 listen again shows to post online and will be posting them over next couple of days. ---Comment ChemotherapyPosted 3 days, 9 hours ago on March 4, 2007 by yerma Just Stuff, News First post in a while but thought it would be a good time to get back online. About 6 weeks ago I heard that my mum had been diagnosed with breast cancer after a routine mammogram had shown up some strangeness.

Just finished watching it for the second time and am really impressed with it. Sean Pertwee is paticularly brilliant playing the leader of the group and Kevin McKidd as the second in command. Features some great lines and is well worth a watch. Commentary on the dvd is supposed to be brilliant as well but haven't got round to watcching that yet. ---Comment Branding and citiesPosted 2 years, 10 months ago on May 28, 2006 by yerma Just Stuff Not as bad as Liverpool's big dig but still pretty awful!! ---Comment My favourite South Park episodePosted 2 years, 10 months ago on May 12, 2006 by yerma Just Stuff
