I actually asked my doctor about my dentist making me premedicate (faulty valve here) before going to the dentist. He said there's actually never been a recorded death in history due to this, it's just conjecture/theory/fear.
So now I just lie and tell them I've premeditated. I'm not actually going to spend an hour going to the pharmacy for some theory.
upgraded video cards thinking computer was off, but it was actually on. *windows 95* survived this just fine -- I was using TV-out on both cards and even the tv out was still working when I put the new card in. No downtime.
also, in the 5inch floppy days, I would fold the floppy in half, then half again, so that it was in quarters, severely creasing the floppy, and it would still work....
but surely some programs must automatically do the required conversions?
maybe even automatically create a rudimentary menu? something like an autogenerated webpage with links to each "avi" (I know they're not really AVis once on the disc)
Go read my original question again. he most certainly did not answer my original question of, and I quote: "Is there an EASY EASY EASY EASY EASY way to drop a divx movie into a dvd layout and just burn it as a standalone dvd?"
He did NOT tell me how to burn it on a standalone DVD. To clarify, a standalone DVD represents to me, and probably much of the world, a fucking DVD that plays in a fucking DVD player.
Some some geek's modded xbox. Not a divx-capable DVD player. A FUCKING DVD PLAYER.
He most certainly did NOT answer that question. His answer was NOT the answer to my problem. Am I going to tell my grandma to buy a new dvd player just to watch my fucking wedding video when she's on social security? Am I going to explain to my grandma why she needs a fucking modded xbox?
You just don't get it, and you've successfully joined the ranks of stupid geeks with useless answers.
Now to clarify, when I say: "drop a divx movie into a dvd layout and just burn it as a standalone dvd" I don't mean that I want a divx file on the fucking DVD. Use your fucking brain, jackass. A standalone (i.e. NORMAL, WHAT YOU WOULD GET FROM NETFLIX) DVD does not contain a divx file.
My apologies to your unimaginative brain if you had to take what I said ultra-literally... I hope you don't interpret the bible with that literal of a brain, or you're probably a gaybashing Christian Coalision rightwing fucknut.
You may think it's always fun to watch people act dumb, but I think it's more fun to watch people thinking that they are acting smart. I could care less what some slashdotter thinks. I wouldn't trade my life for any of yours and you can all burn in hell.
To summarize: Go suck Osama's cock, but only after it's buried deep into your fathers prostrate.
Re-encoding also introduces additional video artifacts, and I'm a quality maniac. (TO an extent.) So U-Lead DVD Express will let me drag-and-burn-right-away a divx? Sweeeeeeet.
That wasn't my question, and that's not an acceptible answer. I want my relatives to be able to see my divx wedding videos, even the ones who don't have fancy schmancy modded Xboxes or the latest dvd players.
But thanks for the typical elite-geek-slashdot response. You wasted both our time.
This is the best combo. Sure you'll be stuck in 800x600 land (unless you want ugly scaling), but the ATI drivers allow you to select "sharpen" for the s-video output. The result is the cleanest 800x600 tv out I've ever seen, on a Proscan (read:RCA topend) TV. It cost $1200 in 8/1999 (and has logged over 17000 hours--it knows).
Screw those newfangled TVs. I've yet to see a TV out better than mine. I can read default IE text from 10-15 feet away, and even DOS(4NT) windows look good.
I don't know of any software developers, anywhere, that get a paid commission of the sales of the game.
Pirate anything I wrote. I already got paid and am not getting paid more. You're not hurting me if you pirate my software.
I currently get games mailed to me, Netflix-style, by TriggerFingers. (I have tried Gplay/GoVoJo, GameFly, TurboGamer, and RedOctane, but Triggerfingers really is the best and offers a 5-games-at-once plan for $30.)
How do I get JAPANESE games mailed to me Netflix-style? I have a modchip so region encoding is not an issue. There are many japanese games I would like to try that I simply cannot get (Fantavision 2).
I'd rather be hacked once every 10 yrs than be crippled my whole life by an open-source culture that, while being morally superior, is functionally inferior.
But I have high hopes for the future when unix actually will become better than Windows. It's not here yet, but it's inevitable.
*I* was gonna say "you have 30 seconds to comply", dammit.
After seeing RoboCop (I was about 12, my sister about 7), I could control my sister for many years afterwards. The movie scared her. Whenever I wanted her to move off my seat, or do anything, I would just point my arms at her and say "You have 30 seconds to comply". I would wait awhile. "You have 20 seconds to comply." She would always cave in before I got to 0. Robocop has helped me in hundreds of these altercations.
I just bought a network adapter, but am sadly distressed that many of the net-capable games are only sufficient for putting one person online.
For example: Amplitude. This game supports 4 players at once, locally. So me & my wife play, and sometimes we play with another couple or other friends.
But online, only 1 person can play. Sure, I can join a 4-player game, but there is no way for BOTH of us to join a game online.
This just sucks. What good is a network adapter if I have to play alone? I prefer to ONLY play 2+ player games. I do not play single player games. I almost always play a game with my wife. (Current obsession: Culdcept.)
So my actual question is this: Are there any online games which allow 1-4 people HERE to join an ongoing online game. Something that Me + wife + network adapter + (only one) PlayStation2 can play???
I tend to think the oppositte -- that the Ritual is the hardest to play and not fast-forward once. My ideal song length is about 3-3.5 minutes. I can't possibly focus my attention long enough to get through "Three Days", despite it being a good song. Ritual just lacked the energy, and, I daresay, creativity of Nothing's Shocking.
Could you please elaborate on how The Gift is related? Because, although I've never heard the word, I most definiately am a completist. Though, to play devil's advocate, I have never listened to any of the new stuff.
I'm kinda glad they broke up after it though. I always thought Nothing's Shocking was the hilight. Especially when it was the only album out and no one knew about it. (I know it's their 2nd album, but #1 wasn't realeased until after #2.) Not that people knowing about it was a bad thing or anything, but I really wish I hadn't lost my VHS video. Time to head on over to netflix...

Mr. Body Massage!

But I could be burning that hole in my pocket with a fresnel lens. PLEASE PROVIDE ORDERING LINK.
Label the large plastic bags ("RCA", "mini-jack", "ethernet", "keyboard adapters and extensions", "serial", "ribbon").
Place large plastic bags (like those kinds that hold comfortors when you buy them brand new) in large cardboard boxes.
Very easy.

by "some some" i meant "NOT some". Shoulda used preview.

(I.E. the difference between dropping mp3s into nero and burning vs having to convert the mp3s to wavs yourself.)
I understand mpeg4 != 2 (4 != 2).
SO I should have said "on-the-fly encoding".
But sounds like you know the answer. ULead will do this? Do I need the most recent version?
thanks,
-Clint

Moderators, go ahead and mod this "irrelevant", but I've been wondering for awhile:
Is there an EASY EASY EASY EASY EASY way to drop a divx movie into a dvd layout and just burn it as a standalone dvd?
What about xvid?
Sort of like how in nero you can drag mp3s into a layout and burn it to audio cd.
I can see individual pixels on MY tv out. (36" Proscan, ATI Radeon, 800x600).
Screw those newfangled TVs. I've yet to see a TV out better than mine. I can read default IE text from 10-15 feet away, and even DOS(4NT) windows look good.
Because he's 100% right!

Good luck guys. You'll need it.

You need 4NT.
For example: Amplitude. This game supports 4 players at once, locally. So me & my wife play, and sometimes we play with another couple or other friends.

I second the motion. Gimme that zip file!
