April 2004

Ceci n'est pas une update (again) Posted Wednesday, April 28, 2004, 1:36PM by TylerL
No new files, but I'm very happy right now and want to show off my newest triumph:
#!/bin/sh

meddur=`./qt_info "$1" | grep "media duration" | awk '{ print $5 " " }' | head -n 1`
medsam=`./qt_info "$1" | grep "media sample count" | awk '{ print $6 " " }' | head -n 1`
framerate=`echo $medsam / $meddur | bc -l`

./mp4creator -rate=$framerate -c=$1 $2 -optimize
./ffmpeg -i "$1" -acodec copy "$2".mp3
audfile=`echo $2.mp3`
open -a "/Applications/QuickTime Player.app" $2
open -a "/Applications/QuickTime Player.app" $audfile

/usr/bin/osascript -l AppleScript -e "tell application \"QuickTime Player\"" -e \
"select all movie \"$2\"" -e "copy movie \"$2\"" -e "add movie \"$audfile\"" -e \
"set current time of movie \"$audfile\" to 0" -e "save movie \"$audfile\"" -e "end tell"


A cookie for whoever figures out what it does.
Update by Tyler not yesterday: It's a direct stream ripper/muxer to take DivX videos and play them in QuickTime without 3ivx or any ffmpeg-based codecs. Here's the binary collection for anyone who wants to try it out:
Divx2mp4 - Mac OS X 10.2 or higher (I think) and QuickTime Pro.
Usage: navigate to directory containing divx2mp4, then:
% ./divx2mp4 [divxfile] [outputfile]
Make sure [outputfile] is in the same folder as divx2mp4 (don't do full directory path).
QuickTime will probably whine about video corruption, but it'll be fine after the first few frames.
No warranty, no guarantees, your house WILL burn down if you use this code.

...anyone got the original Reign and Kikaider intros? Posted Tuesday, April 20, 2004, 9:52AM by TylerL
I added all four Gundam SEED intros on Sunday, but forgot to tell anyone.
Sorry.
Everybody should go get them.
Except Knux.
Update by Tyler 15 minutes later: Articles like this make me happy. H.264 represent, yo.

Just a friendly reminder:
By now, you should have told everybody in the tri-county area about Toonami Saturday (7-11pm est) and have made sure they agreed to watch it.
And every subsequent airing every Saturday from now on.
That is all.
Look for updates like thunder tonight as I convert all the cool new stuff from the airwaves to the...uh...wirepulses.
Update by Tyler an hour later: Pokémon 3: The Movie intro now online. Enjoy.
Later.

Server Work Posted Thursday, April 15, 2004, 12:21AM by Zogg
I've been doing some server maintence for the past hour or so, and may continue until 8pm EST. If you are having trouble with your downloads being cut off during that time, sorry about that...
Update by Tyler 10 minutes later:...but you didn't pay for the premium service, so too bad. :p

Strange Teaser Image. [gasp] What does it MEAN?!? Posted Wednesday, April 14, 2004, 8:09PM by TylerL

Why am I still awake? Posted Wednesday, April 14, 2004, 4:34AM by TylerL
Gundam SEED promos are airing during Adult Swim Weekdays.
The First Promo is in the Newest Downloads bar.
There's a long promo in the wild, too. I'll see what i can do about that tomorrow. (and make the SEED section sometime also.)
Update by Tyler after sleep: Hey, did I ever mention that I updated the Rants section?
It looks much nicer now. Newer articles are up at the top now too.
New Rant will be coming within a week or so.
About Otakos :D
