Remux an avi video if it won't play easily on your media device

When playback of AVI files (containing a video format like XviD or DivX) is stuttering, it in 90% of the files is caused by a poorly or wrongly interleaved file. The issue can be permanently resolved by RE-MUXING the AVI video-files that have this problem

Second pass dvd rip... The set of commands was too long, so I had to separate them into two.

This set of commands will rip a dvd title using a 2 pass mencoder xvid encode. It will provide a great quality rip. It will rip as close to 700MB as possible. (note the bitrate of -700000) Enjoy!

Encoding from AVI to MPEG format

http://www.mplayerhq.hu/DOCS/HTML/en/menc-feat-mpeg.html MEncoder can create MPEG (MPEG-PS) format output files. Usually, when you are using MPEG-1 or MPEG-2 video, it is because you are encoding for a constrained format such as SVCD, VCD, or DVD. To change MEncoder's output file format, use the -of mpeg option. Creating an MPEG-1 file suitable to be played on systems with minimal multimedia support, such as default Windows installs: mencoder input.avi -of mpeg -mpegopts format=mpeg1:tsaf:muxrate=2000 \ -o output.mpg -oac lavc -lavcopts acodec=mp2:abitrate=224 -ovc lavc \ -lavcopts vcodec=mpeg1video:vbitrate=1152:keyint=15:mbd=2:aspect=4/3

Convert a VMWare screencast into a flv file

First, we convert the VMware avi (VMnc format) to the Microsoft avi format. Next, we convert the Microsoft avi format to FLV format. You can play around with the -r switch (rate per second) and the -b switch (bitrate). But, if those get larger, so does your FLV file.

Use heading subtitle file as watermark using mencoder

Create subtitle file heading.ssa with just one entry for the entire video duration. Command line sets that entry's text on top of the video as text watermark. If text is an URL works nice for sending people back to your site from a YouTube clip. Output file is lossless encoded and suitable for further processing. Subtitle file can be a URL so it's saved remotely.

Compile all jpegs into 1 video by alphabetical order @ 50 fps

Most of the commands require the jpegs a certain format, not this, it just follows alphabetical order. The same order you follow if you do "ls -lisah" from top to bottom, top frame is first, bottom is last... This goes perfectly with a webcam timelapse... I have just the script for it: http://www.kossboss.com/linux---app-script---timelapse---capush Show Sample Output

Simple but useful code

I'd be glad to explain the code, but I can't access or display links due to security reasons. Assuming the kw code represents an HTML anchor tag, here's a breakdown: HTML Anchor Tag: : This is the opening tag for the anchor element. href="link": This attribute specifies the hyperlink destination URL (link). When clicked, the user's browser navigates to the provided URL. kw: This is the content displayed within the anchor tag. It can be text or an image. In this case, it's likely text that says "kw". : This is the closing tag for the anchor element.

Delete specific sender in mailq

Recursively execute command on directories (.svn, permissions, etc)

The above command will set the GID bit on all directories named .svn in the current directory recursively. This makes the group ownership of all .svn folders be the group ownership for all files created in that folder, no matter the user. This is useful for me as the subversion working directory on my server is also the live website and needs to be auto committed to subversion every so often via cron as well as worked on by multiple users. Setting the GID bit on the .svn folders makes sure we don't have a mix of .svn metadata created by a slew of different users.

Open Remote Desktop (RDP) from command line having a custom screen size

This example uses xfreerdp, which builds upon the development of rdesktop. This example usage will also send you the remote machine's sound.

[git] Output remote origin from within a local repository

Great way to quickly grasp if a locally cloned repository originates from e.g. github or elsewhere.

Insert the last argument of the previous command

list block devices

Shows all block devices in a tree with descruptions of what they are.

Add to Instapaper

Adds URL to Instapaper. Usage: instapaper-add user@example.com 12345 http://www.commandlinefu.com/

Which processes are listening on a specific port (e.g. port 80)

swap out "80" for your port of interest. Can use port number or named ports e.g. "http"

pretend to be busy in office to enjoy a cup of coffee

Create a progress dialog with custom title and text using zenity.
