| 00:05.20 | pahartik | Hello chainy ask |
| 00:11.38 | chainy | Hi. I just wanted to ask what the best way of watching youtube and BBC flash videos? I take it there are some Greasemonkey scripts that help. But, the one for mplayer doesn't work for me. I'd like to try the VLC one, but then I have all sorts of problems with VLC - it's a really old version and I can't figure out a way of getting a newer version of VLC. I tried adding testing and unstable sources, along with the apt pinning etc, |
| 00:11.38 | chainy | <PROTECTED> |
| 00:15.16 | pahartik | chainy: Using "youtube-dl" to figure out URL of video content, using "wget" to fetch content, then using "vlc" for playback |
| 00:17.03 | chainy | I had a look for youtube-dl, but I couldn't find it in synaptic, but that was before I added the testing and unstable and testing sources... I'll check again... |
| 00:21.10 | pahartik | chainy: I refer to document at "http://packages.debian.org/sid/all/youtube-dl/download" |
| 00:25.08 | chainy | thank you. I've just found it in synaptic. Maybe I missed it the first time, or maybe it appeared after I added the extra sources. Not sure! |
| 00:27.20 | chainy | My vlc is version 0.8.6 - very old! How can I get a newer version? I've enabled testing and unstable sources, but I'm having no success installing a newer VLC player! |
| 00:27.49 | chainy | Er... only half my sentence there...! |
| 00:28.08 | chainy | I wanted to say that I only have VLC version 0.8.6. Very old! |
| 00:28.23 | chainy | Do you know how to get a newer version? |
| 00:29.59 | chainy | I've added the testing and unstable sources, but I can't get a newer VLC installed. Is that because it needs pulse-audio installed, something that is not with Lenny stable? That's just my guess... I noticed something about pulse in the failure message from apt... |
| 00:43.36 | daven | you could install build deps and build your own |
| 00:45.16 | chainy | yes, I'm not sure I fancy that, though. Never done it before. What version of VLC do you have? |
| 00:45.53 | chainy | Is everyone on Lenny PPC stuck with 0.8.6 as the default install? |
| 00:47.11 | daven | chainy: just roll a debian package |
| 00:47.51 | chainy | what does that mean? Sorry, I'm relatively new to this |
| 00:47.58 | chainy | roll?! |
| 00:48.09 | chainy | as in, use one? |
| 00:48.45 | daven | as in, grab the source |
| 00:49.58 | daven | http://wiki.videolan.org/UnixCompile <-- should be reasonably easy to follow |
| 00:50.53 | chainy | yes, that's going to be fun for a novice! Thanks for the link, though... I suppose I should try to enjoy the challenge?! |
| 00:51.50 | daven | well, try apt-get build-dep vlc |
| 00:52.48 | daven | although, have you checked out debian-multimedia.org |
| 00:53.15 | chainy | yes, I have that source list |
| 00:53.23 | daven | and still no recent VLC? |
| 00:53.48 | chainy | apparently no.... Unless I've made a mistake somewhere... |
| 00:54.52 | chainy | To be honest, I think I need to recheck my source lists. I've been adding so many, that it's possibly a bit muddled... |
| 00:56.43 | chainy | I tried the build-dep command. Seems I'm missing liblivemedia-dev |
| 00:57.13 | chainy | well, at least the required version of it... |
| 00:57.34 | chainy | Ah well, I've got to go to bed now. Thank you for your help, though. Bye |

| 02:23.04 | pahartik | does not really know what problem chainy had, "vlc 1.0.5-1" is currently installed just fine on iBook G4 and has been newer than "vlc 0.8.6" for long time |

| 14:20.14 | chainy | I worked out how to fix VLC. Take a look at this website: http://sidux.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-11182.html |
| 14:21.17 | chainy | I followed the instructions from someone called hubi.... So, luckily, I don't have to bother trying to build VLC from source! Phew. I took a look at the page on how to do this and my head began to hurt very quickly! :-) |
| 14:22.02 | chainy | My VLC is now working for FLV and MP4 files... |
| 14:22.36 | chainy | So now, I'm going to try the greasemonkey script to use VLC for youtube videos... |

| 17:49.45 | Bor_Ed | had a q for ya too.. you wouldn't happen to know a source for apple service stuff or so? my b&w g3 board is semi dead and need to troubleshoot it |
| 17:50.06 | simonrvn | on their download site maybe? |
| 17:50.17 | simonrvn | their "Download Area" |
| 17:51.04 | Bor_Ed | a bit deeper than that...got some of the board dead (usb) and partially dead (nic) and strange behaviour all over |
| 17:51.17 | simonrvn | http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/ |
| 17:51.32 | Bor_Ed | it's had electric surge and heavy abuse on varying temp |
| 17:51.39 | simonrvn | maybe firmware? ah |
| 17:52.10 | Bor_Ed | I'd need schematic or service manual |
| 17:52.45 | Bor_Ed | can't locate even with lmgtfy :/ |
| 17:55.13 | simonrvn | http://www.eserviceinfo.com/index.php?what=search2&searchstring=Apple+M6496 |
| 17:56.19 | simonrvn | http://www.eserviceinfo.com/downloadsm/25544/Apple%20Computer%20Inc._Power%20Macintosh%20G3.html |
| 17:56.46 | simonrvn | maybe |
| 17:59.05 | Bor_Ed | lets see |
| 18:00.59 | Bor_Ed | gah, needs all parts of the manual |
| 18:01.12 | simonrvn | ah poop |
| 18:01.46 | simonrvn | well, that was just from a quickie search for 'blue and white g3 schematic' |
| 18:02.06 | Bor_Ed | got hella bandwidth now, upped my w-cdma plan from 384k to whopping 1M :) |
| 18:02.19 | simonrvn | cool =) |
| 18:02.36 | Bor_Ed | still cheaper than 1M adsl from local provider |
| 18:10.52 | Bor_Ed | hmm, need to move the manual to stick and read at work... don't have time now to crawl through it but thanks, it might help |
| 18:11.47 | simonrvn | np dude |
| 18:14.36 | Bor_Ed | sheesh, no wonder my dvb-s card was crying on the board... max allowed power per slot is 15W 5V and 3.3V combined :P |
| 18:20.27 | Bor_Ed | quick crawl through troubleshooting section is what I've pretty much done already |
| 18:22.58 | simonrvn | mm |
| 18:25.12 | Bor_Ed | buggr that... need to grab the board to work and drop some wires to signals... my server box currently is this 1GHz celery as I can't use the nic or w-cdma stick on the g3 mobo |
