[ot] PCABX problems under win98
I've been preparing some samples of a recent pre-rc4 compile for ABX
testing, using the PCABX tool at pcabx.com. I was able to run this
successfully under win95/osr2 earlier, but now under 98se, no dice. All I
get is an error message reading: "Component 'MCI32.OCX' not correctly
registered: file is missing or invalid". I found the file online and tried
putting it in

ABX at q8
Hello!
First of all, 100x thanks to Monty and colleagues: you have done an
excellent job! I just didn't believe my ears when I first tested Oggenc
1.0 at q0 to q1 - it sounds AMAZINGLY GOOD !!!
But as HDD drives are getting larger and cheaper, most of us move toward
higher quality settings ......... I use q8, because:
- I was able to ABX some test samples up to q4.99
- at q8 Ogg is still

dovecot auth password mismatch
Hello dovecot gods, after using Postfix with webmail for 8 years the new gen of email smartphones forces me to consider using IMAP. Actually, for several months I was successfully using IMAP. I believe the reason why IMAP worked previously (before migrating to the Cloud) the hosting server and the client machines were considered local by the system. Now, I have moved everything to a Cloud service.

ISOLINUX: Boot problems
Hi,
I'm trying to setup a Linux CD on mashine that will have nothing but a
CDROM. Everything worked fine until I removed the HDD. From this moment on
the CD doesn;t boot. I upgraded to Syslinux 2.0 but with no luck. The error
message I got almost says it all: "Extremely broken BIOS", but can I ask for
help if there some ideas how to fix this, cause if I put the HDD back the CD
boots

133 kbps stereo killer sample
I halved the volume of the sample before encoding with
`sox -v 0.5 floex.wav quiet.wav` and now I can't ABX it succesfully anymore.
So the artifact I heard was just clipping when encoding or decoding.
Opus remains unbeaten for me at 133 kbps. That's totally awesome.
Cheers

applaud.wav sounds worse in 1.0?
I've been running through a collection of hard to encode samples that the
lame developers use, and others, doing ABX testing at various quality levels
looking for my personal sweet spot. Last time I did this for RC3 I found that
most samples where pretty transparent around the 3.5-4 region (my ears aren't
that well trained, and I don't want them to be :-), but this time I noticed

RC3 killer sample?
I was able to ABX 60.wav from the lame samples up to q=5.9 (13/16 tries at
that quality level). I failed to ABX it at q=6.0 (8/16).
The sample exhibits a pumping artifact; a "fluttering", if you will, of the
amplitude. The effect becomes more pronounced as quality setting / bitrate
decreases.
Any thoughts?
Also - if anyone replies to this, could you CC me a copy? I'm not on the

Extracting formula from an lm object
I want to extra the part of the formula not including the response
variable from an lm object. For example if the lm object ABx.lm was
created by the call
ABx.lm <- lm( y ~ A + B + x, ...)
Then ACx.lm is saved as part of a workspace.
I wish to extract "~ A + B + x". Later in my code I will fit another
linear model of the form z ~ A + B + x for some other response variable z.

Opus vs AAC (endurance test)
using iTunes i've noticed that AAC is
very good at re-encoding own lossy sound.
let's test Opus!
neroaacenc.exe -q 0.75 -if 000.wav -of 001.m4a
neroaacdec.exe -if 001.m4a -of aac001.wav
wavdiff.exe 000.wav aac001.wav
Comparing 000.wav - aac001.wav...
Max diff: -17.3867dB
RMS diff: -33.0851dB
Mean diff: -32.4582dB
opusenc.exe --bitrate 512 "000.wav" 001.opus

Opus vs AAC (endurance test)
Opus is specifically designed to survive tandeming but you need to keep the
frames aligned and not mess with the gain, which your tools probably do not
do.

FWD: OGG level mismatch
Comments on the following, anyone? This means you, Monty.
What's causing the gain he's seeing? Is this a matter of codebook
precision, again?

xen 2.0/2.0.1 reboots silently on via C3-cpu
On my lex mainboard with a Via C3 cpu, xen 2.0(.1) reboots (nearly)
immediately without any outputs.
The same setup/version boots without problems on a via epia M board with
a Via C3-2 cpu (Nehemia), having a rather different chipset.
Starting with option noreboot, nobiostables doesn''t change anything
visible.
Is this a known problem? Or just a knowingly unsupported chipset?

Hi,
Is Icecast supported on windows 98? Under the documentation it says that only Windows NT, 2000 and XP are supported.
