Cu wire fusing amps ?

Mine I built in 2007. Took about 2 hours to compile, after I found out that the code used pi and e, but didn't define their values anywhere. A quick couple of #defines fixed that.

I actually have two versions, one with dvdnav, for those nasty crippled Sony DVDs, with apparently bad tracks, which breaks a few unrelated things, and one without dvdnav for everything else.

I have codecs for just about everything.

There's an HTML guide, that I converted to PDF, that's better than the man page. I'll shove it up to a.b.s.e. if you like.

I now know why the Hungarians invented goulash ;-)

Go for it. I would like a really clean MM player that is reliable as well.

VLC. For both Windows AND Linux.

Regular DVDs... Xbox media center (XBMC).

BD and HD DVDs, not so easy on ANY non-proprietary platform.

Under Windows, software decoding players usually come with the playback device, and it is usually "Power DVD". They are on my list of folks to sue for dropping support on hardware they were contracted to support.

Sad, my original DVD drive for a PC had its own HARDWARE based decoding card, back before they had software decoding, and before the speed of the PCs they were on could decode them fast enough.

I wish they would come out with a BD DVD player that had its own decoder card. That way they could put the software for the player on the card too.

With the computers being so fast now, the hardware decoder option will likely never happen.

Great program for the most part, but it lacks a way to set a bookmark so you can pick up where you left off watching a video.

Did you perchance correspond that info to the authors? It is, after all, an open source project.

You could also simply leave it 'up", and then when you return, it will still be there.

Open another instance to watch something else, and the first instance should still be there.

There's a number of posts on their forum complaining about this one flaw. I'm pretty sure that they've read them.

The computer gets turned off when not in use.

Place it into hibernation instead.

Added benefit of nearly instantaneous (comparatively) restart time.

It would be a nice test, for sure, especially if the actual movie file is on yet another location. That would delay the restart a few seconds more, as it re-establishes those "hooks". Should be fine, if all the powers that be (OS authors, App authors) did everything right.

Could puke all over itself and me, however.

For some reason, I hadn't thought of that. I did some testing and wasn't happy with the time for it to resume in Windows XP, and writing 3GB to an SSD on a daily basis did not appeal to me either, so I tried STR (S3). When powered off, the computer draws about 2W, in S3, it draws about 4W for a mini-itx mobile 965 chipset with a 2.2GHz core2 duo. So it looks like a decent compromise.

Thanks for that. Still wish they'd add the feature, though.

Oooops... apparently I meant "sleep" NOT hibernation. Sorry.

I haven't even given this stuff a glance in a long time, other than to turn it off as an auto-function of "power saving".

You can't put it into standby?

eries resistor attached. The resistor and solder joints get covered with h eat shrink. I was wondering about the max voltage till the resistor fries. (The led can handle 40mA.) Maybe if I get any time I'll test and see.

It is a question of thermal insulation. There are 0.2 watts incandescent la mps. And a some 1W resistor does not even get warm with that power.
