bkerensaBrian_H: Don't you have sysadmins for that :)21:19
Brian_Hnot enough of them!21:20
Brian_Hlol21:20
bkerensaBrian_H: Do you guys have your own DC in-house or colo somewhere?21:20
bkerensaBrian_H: It's ok if thats proprietary info... I understand some companies are tight on that info :)21:21
* bkerensa would live in a datacenter if they made apartments inside :)21:21
bkerensaJust for the latency and fiber speeds :D21:22
c_smithbleh, my podcasts aren't reorganized when in .m4v, and the versions I converted in ffmpeg aren't recognised as podcasts....21:25
bkerensawhich podcasts? Why not store in mp3 format and just use Rythmbox21:26
c_smithapparently I have an gstreamer ffmpeg plugin installed, but it's not doing jack for m4v when ffmpeg from CLI does that just fine.21:26
c_smiththe problem is that I'm trying to get them on an Ipod Nano 5g.21:26
c_smiththey play just fine as is on Banshee. but it doesn't like putting them on the Ipod.21:27
bkerensahmm... I havent had a ipod for a long time what formats does it accept?21:28
c_smithlet me look that up21:29
c_smithappaerntly H.264,  and MPEG-421:31
c_smithand M4V is MPEG4, right?21:31
bkerensaumm I think its a proprietary file container for apple itunes21:32
bkerensakind close to a MPEG-421:32
c_smithah, I see.21:32
c_smithstrange how Banshee isn't picking up the FFMPEG Gstreamer plugin as being able to convert it when I can convert it through FFMPEG through CLI21:34
thefinn93meh21:35
bkerensaCLI is always the way to go21:35
bkerensa:D21:35
thefinn93banshee is aweful21:35
thefinn93imo21:35
thefinn93rhythmbox21:35
bkerensaYES YES YES21:35
bkerensaRythmBOX!21:35
bkerensa:D21:35
bkerensaBanshee doesnt even allow Last.fm listening21:35
bkerensawhy they pushed a player that has less features idk21:36
thefinn93banshee always screws up for me21:36
thefinn93and there's no way to make it go away21:36
thefinn93just to close the window21:36
thefinn93then it minimizes to the tray21:36
c_smithI didn't know Rhythmbox was installable.21:38
c_smithhas Amorok worked will for you guys?21:39
thefinn93sudo apt-get install rhythmbox21:39
thefinn93no21:39
c_smithhmmmm, ok21:39
thefinn93amorok hasn't worked well for me21:39
c_smithI'll try it once and if I get the errors I get now, I'm gonna go to Rhythmbox,21:39
thefinn93alright21:40
c_smithI'll say this, Rhythmbox was always solid before they dropped it in Ubuntu.21:40
c_smithwasn't that in 10.10?21:41
thefinn93i think so21:41
bkerensaweird21:42
bkerensaSomehow german folk rock started playing on Rythmbox21:42

c_smithlol21:43
c_smithspent almost 24 hours letting the podcasts download... hopefully they're quicker this time around, but around 300 episodes is never quick.21:47
thefinn93G+ API released21:47
c_smithnice21:48
c_smithdoes anyone else here think Windows 8 is turning out to be more of an abomination than Vista was?21:55
tgm4883c_smith, why?21:56
c_smithfor one: they're doing away with Keyboards, for 2: it just looks ugly.21:59
c_smithbut that's my opinion, it's not fact.21:59
c_smiththe keyboards part is fact, though21:59
tgm4883c_smith, yea, I don't see them going away from keyboards22:00
bkerensathefinn93: Yep Py and PHP samples for the api too22:00
