I'm looking for a "lightweight" DRM for MPEG4 myself. We have a need to offer "copy protected" educational video's to students on Mac's and Windows. Right now its easy to do DRM with WMP9 but we'd love to move to a MPEG4 solution. The closest thing we've found is Apples Fairplay and they don't have a publicly available version of it like MS offers. Ultimatly we would like to have plugins for Quicktime or use some other cross platform player like Videolan. If we used Videolan the DRM would be on the honor system since the source for the DRM would have to be publicly available and under the GPL. The best thing you can do is write your own DRM using the ISMA standard and then NOT storing the key/license on the users system. Once you have to store/hide the key on their system for offline playback your in a whole lot of hurt. Just ask Apple about Hymn.
Ok. The spot in the the other photo is like 10 miles from the river in the photo. Thats if that one photo is showing 60 miles of coastland. That is a pretty short walk from that city right on the coast line.
I think prior art for this patent belongs to the old LED/LCD watchs. I can think of many a watch that would do different things depending on how long you held the button.
$212.12 for a great motherboard. $403.00 for a Intel P4. $40.00 for the really cool fan with LEDs.
The look on your face when you smoke your processor improperly over clocking it and find out you really shouldn't have been cocky and tossed that Intel fan in the rubbish bin.
The problem is detecting when an ad plays. You can run off the clock and just know that ads play between 2 and 3 after the hour or you can encode a sub audible tone into the ad and use that to mark it. After that all you need is to make live recording and play silence via the clock or using the sub audible tones. I had a system once that could use the clock (make sure to sync with atomic time) to replace the top of the hour news (the news agency didn't want internet play) with an Internet friendly newscast. I had the tone detectors worked out but the problem was getting the stations to take the time to put sub audible tones in the commercials they didn't want played on the Internet. I had the whole thing running on Linux cranking out an Mp3 stream, which pretty much every player could decode. The biggest problem that I had to work out was being able to cut from one mp3 to another without clicks. I had to record directly to a mp3 and then had to cut from the middle of the mp3 to another mp3 (that was being recorded live also). I was always about 5 to 10 seconds behind the actually broadcast but hey, I'm was streaming it anyway.
Should we erase our history or allow it to be lost forever? A copyrighted material does eventually become public domain. But public domain can be circumvented if somebody is allowed to disallow copies or archives of their material.
Lets say that I write a really keen book that everybody likes. I encrypt it with a really good ebook encryption that not likely to be broken in the next 1000 years. I allow people to use my website to read the book but after a year a depression sets in and people can afford to read my book and I go out of business because I can't make enough money. My site goes off line and my clear text version of the book ends up getting deleted through neglect. It's gone without hope of it being used for public domain or anything.
Of course this stuff happens right now. We call it abandonware. Since the source is not published or archive the ideas behind it are simply lost someday because the writer dies or decides to delete it.
I can build a pretty badass system for a lot less than that VAIO. But anyway, they really tested out software features and not hardcore system specs. The G4 really isn't much faster than its counterpart at the same clock speed unless you count floating point math. I like Macs but I think that this is a unfair bench considering the magazine that published it. Refer to this Slashdot story for more. Why I'm not buying a Mac
Showtimes and Channel info come from Sat

As the subject says. The Showtime info is broadcast on the sat. The further you go into the future of browsing it the longer it takes for the reciver to download it. You really don't need a service if you read the info directly from the card.
The one I tried was a bit bulky but I thought it was pretty cool. I could focus on object far and near and the image from the laser seemed to stay in focus the whole time. It wasn't like I had to refocus on the HUD. The beam seemed kind of bright at first but the guy was able to turn it down to where it was very comfortable.

Read the comments of the different sellers. Two of them are even making fun of the cables.
How about the code that ran on the onboard computers in the Apollo program? You can still build the computers from the original plans.
How about DNA? Its a code that runs a rather complex program.
Why didn't they just use cows instead? The Matrix would have been easy with just a vast field of grass.
What kind of content do they have? What kind of movies and music?

(wait for it...) PRICELESS!
The letters are there to throw everybody off. The grail is hidden IN the monument with the letters on it. :)
I hear ya! I'm in the same boat. I started using a keyboard because my handwriting was bad and now I can hardly even take notes that I can read.
I use a keyboard. :)
Between $875 and $950. I fiddled around with the URL and found the page. http://www.softdsp.com/howtobuy.php
Whatever happend to draining you sewage into the property next door?
Perhapes the operator could interrupt the call with a message about "reaching minimum safe distance" from your phone.
We don't see those in later series because they contracted smallpox from us and it killed the whole lot.

I'm not sure but I belive that Microsoft licenced Norton Backup.
We can always hope they replace Greedo with Jar Jar in IV.

I was born 6/6/66. Nuff said. Anybody else have a uncommon birthday on '/.'?
You can get hot swap IDE enclosures. We got ours from California PC.
Small correction to my posting. The controller is a 7810 and not a 7510. :)
