I was the project manager for MLT. I know for a fact that there are 35 playout boxes running MLT on Bluefish444 SDI hardware, and capable of handling DV, DVCPRO, MPEG-2 among other formats. Visit the http://mlt.sf.net/ site and contact us (preferably via the SF mailing list) and we can help you out. MLT was built for the express purpose of broadcast playout (I should know, I wrote the spec:) . So, to answer your question : Yes, you can. Oh, it is opensource under GPL, and it runs on Ubuntu (recommended). And it provides a complete framework to write your own media apps. I can (if I dig around for a bit) share some code for playlist management as well...
If you are on a Mac the Daylite Productivity Suite is an interesting step forward. It has pretty neat mail integration. Disclaimer : I am in no way affiliated with MarketCircle.
Quibble, with both parent and GP, but The Riot Act comes into force only after it has been read out, bit it aint so with the RICO or PATRIOT : Hence the phrase "Reading the Riot Act"
And since we are playing selective quote, here's one further down from that same page:
An extract from chapter 17 of the book Where White Men Fear to Tread, by Russell Means: "When we met with the Wampanoag people, they told us that in researching the history of Thanksgiving, they had confirmed the oral history passed down through their generations. Most Americans know that Massasoit, chief of the Wampanoag had welcomed the so-called Pilgrim Fathers - and the seldom mentioned Pilgrim Mothers - to the shores where his people had lived for millennia. The Wampanoag taught the European colonists how to live in our hemisphere by showing them what wild foods they could gather, how, where, and what crops to plant, and how to harvest, dry, and preserve them. The Wampanoag now wanted to remind white America of what had happened after Massasoit's death. He was succeeded by his son, Metacomet, whom the colonist called "King" Philip. In 1617-1676, to show "gratitude" for what Massasoit's people had done for their fathers and grandfathers, the Pilgrims manufactured an incident as a pretext to justify disarming the Wampanoags. The whites went after the Wampanoag with guns, swords, cannons, and torches. Most, including Metacomet, were butchered. His wife and son were sold into slavery in the West Indies. His body was hideously drawn and quartered. For twenty-five years afterward Matacomet's skull was displayed on a pike above the whites' village. The real legacy of the Pilgrim Fathers is treachery. Americans today believe that Thanksgiving celebrates a bountiful harvest, but that is not so. By 1970, the Wampanoag had turned up a copy of a Thanksgiving proclamation made by the governor to the colony. The text revealed the ugly truth: After a colonial militia had returned from murdering the men, women, and children of an Indian village, the governor proclaimed a holiday and feast to give thanks for the massacre. He also encouraged other colonies to do likewise - in other words, every autumn after the crops are in, go kill Indians and celebrate your murders with a feast.
In November 1970, their decendants returned to Plymouth to publisize the true story of Thanksgiving and, along with about two hundred other Indians from around the country, to observe a national day of Indian mourning."
I've been following this story quite closely, and I've never heard anyone call Jack Murtha a terrorist. No, But jean Schmidt called him a coward. Here's a video from C-SPAN
It may be an ECMA standard, but it could still be patented. IIRC, the ECMA / patent issue affect Mono as well. From the Mono FAQ : "The core of the.NET Framework, and what has been patented by Microsoft falls under the ECMA/ISO submission"

Interesting.. I got my binary (the 38 mb beast) from Adobe. And it doesn't... no debian here:( no way to apt-get it... only reason to use the adobe thing is the form feature.... anyways, good for you.../me turn green with envy:)
This is Acrobat 7 & specifically, the free download edition we're talking about, right ? If I hit the save button it explicitly throws a dilaog box saying only a blank form will be saved. And if you proceed, it will save only the blank form
You are right, mostly. India has a desert (the Thar desert in Rajasthan), and camels. But no camel racing, afaik. The kind described in TFA is restricted to oil rich Arabia.
And that's different from having a conversation with the person in the passenger seat HOW?
When the passenger sees something coming your way they STFU and leave you to focus on the problem at hand... and perhaps even point it out to you in the first place... The chap on the other end of the line yammer on blissfully unaware...
except I really don't have any complaints with safari that aren't present in camino and firefox as well.
The CSS / JS in Firefox support is much better than Safari / Konq. We have some thumbnail previews generated via JS that inevtiably break on Koqn and Safari, but reder right in IE, Firefox, Moz, & Camino. Also, there seem to be odd positioning / layer bugs in the CSS support for Konq / Safari (our internal tiki wiki does not render correctly when modified). YMMV.
"Its why Omniweb was the mac OS X browser before safari came out, because it was the most maclike. I love firefox, but I used to hate using it on the mac because, to preserve cross-platform uniformity, it didn't *feel* like a mac app."
In which case, try out Camino. From the site (emphasis mine): "Camino? (formerly known as Chimera) is a web browser for Mac OS X that has a Cocoa user interface, and embeds the Gecko layout engine. It is intended to be a simple, small and fast browser for Mac OS X."
Here is John Grubers translation. Spot on.
>Of course, we on /. hope you'll do it with open-source, so we can start our own TV broadcast stations for free
So go start one, its already been done : http://mlt.sf.net/ for Free/free.

if you are okay with non-free then Mainconcept make a pretty decent video editor. On the Free/free front Jahshaka hit rc3(?) recently. On KDE you have KDEnlive....
XFS, CXFS
GRIO
ccNUMA
Inventor, Performer
Perhaps a server with more than one PSU (I'm looking at you XServe)
I could go on.... SGI has had, for many years, stuff that has yet to show up in OS X...
Ah, but I know lilo_booter from MLT :-)

nowhere does it rain all day more than 15% of the days.
Time to brush up on geography. It rains pretty much all the time in Cherrapunji.
*WOOOOSH* GP's comment was continuation of the quote. The woman sitting next to the narrator asks the question, to which he replies : "A major one".

Yeah, that worked real well against the Sonny Bono Coyright extension.

umm...Nope. Hitting save will not work in the free edition of the reader. You cannot Save forms with this one, you have to get the full version.

Hi,
I am curious about your sig. I've tried googling for it, but am unable to find the reference. Where is this quote from ?
