Hello, I use my system for time-shifting local TV and I usually re-encode the capture card's MPEG2 into theora to create much smaller files. However since upgrading from alpha 5 to alpha 7 I can no longer do this. The problem seems that the bit rates are too high and the resulting files are unplayable (tried mplayer, vlc, and theora_play). I've built the alpha7 libtheora rpm (using the

I'm announcing today a new testsuite application for Markdown called MDTest. I've been using it as a replacement for John's Markdown Test for some time now I think it's ready for release. First, I want to say Markdown Test has been very useful in developing PHP Markdown. The testsuite covers many cases, however I still found the need to add other tests for PHP Markdown, to

It has been a few months since the initial release of MDTest. I haven't changed the testsuites much since then, but I've made a few noticeable improvement to the test processor itself. You can download MDTest here: <http://michelf.com/docs/projets/mdtest-1.1.zip> MDTest is also available now from the Git repository mirror at <http://git.michelf.com/mdtest>. MDTest

Hi Samba users, We would like to use samba for re-exporting our other distributed file system (BeeGFS). However, we found that the meta data operations are very slow (dir stat, removal etc.). On SMB client the performance is more than 30x slow than on the SMB server. We would expect some slowness but this is too big a drop. This is the result on CIFS client $ sudo mdtest -b 10 -I 10 -L -z 2

I have an installation fo OEL5.2 64 bit with Xen. with 4GB memory and 500GB SATA AMD 64. i mount the disk1.iso of an 5.3 installation in an http folder like : mount ... disk1.iso /var/www/html/OEL5 i created a guest the guest VM with the url http://192.168.24.24/OEL5 and created a file image as a disk space. Now the guest installation runs until to the point where I am setting network ip

Also from my observation, based on network packets and time measurements, it seems the CIFS clients haven't done any sort of cache. For example, doing a "ls" for 5 times on the same folder within a short period of time. The network packet sizes are almost equal every time and the time it takes is similar. Isn't there supposed to be some page cache or dentry cache that could

We are proud to a announce another alpha release of Samba 4.

Hi, I'm using the cubic splines from termstrc package. I invoked the splines_estim function with a group of 43 bonds. It computes 6 knot points and returns values for alpha1 to alpha7. My question is how to use these alpha1 to alpha7 in the equation of yield? For example, if I'm trying to find the yield at, say, 12.25 years, which falls between 3rd & 4th knot points what should the
