This ought to be a satire, but probably isn't -> amazon.com/review/R29Z8WM8NC5CDP/…

@derobert the disk I made plays. But it would be good if the subs were say yellow. they'd stand out better. also perhaps a bit bigger.

@FaheemMitha Those are options you set in your srt file. Not sure if vf subtitle has ways to override.

Quick check of ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#subtitles-1 gives a way to override the style

Anyway, going to bed shortly.

@derobert oh. hmm.

Did you see the LordNeckbeard answer?

It's what you said, except without the audio conversion. I haven't tried with the audio conversion.

Yeah, saw it. But heading off to bed.

@derobert Ok. Thanks.

It's Monday. Time for backporting.

@derobert how so?

Is this like: If it's Tuesday, it must be Belgium?

@FaheemMitha if you havent resolved the issue yet "NVIDIA: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel module has version 304.117" means the Xorg nvidia module and the nvidia kernel driver are not the same version. I get that error when I've updated the nvidia stuff but haven't yet restarted X. No instability for me though, just really really slow OpenGL rendering until I rmmod/insmod the new driver while restarting X

@casey I haven't resolved the issue, but I could have sworn I'd restarted X since that change happened. But I can try again, I guess.

restarting X alone wont fix it

you need to load the proper kernel module before starting X back up

otherwise you are just starting X with the wrong kernel module still and nothing changes

@FaheemMitha ^^ make sure you see the right version in dmesg when you load the nvidia module

@casey let me rephrase. I could have sworn I rebooted since the change happened.

But I guess there is no harm trying again.

does the nvidia module write to dmesg?

@FaheemMitha Only message I get is, I think, nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.

@FaheemMitha you want to pair that dmesg output against this from Xorg's output

all of /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/extensions/libglx.so, /usr/lib64/xorg/modules/drivers/nvidia_drv.so and /lib/module/<kernel version>/video/nvidia.ko need to be the same versions

(paths may vary for you)

I have it simple with gentoo as all come from a single source build, but iirc debian splits them up into different packages

though my recollection of that could be outdated. I haven't run debian on a machine with a graphics card installed in a while

RIGHT THEN.

Oh nice, clean doesn't work in this package either...

hello room

I have a question if anyone is available

@MarkW Hello yourself. As a general rule in all the SE chatrooms, there's no point in asking if anyone's around. Just ask, if anyone can or wants to answer they will.

So, what do you need?

ok so, I have this centos install

I have written a java application for it... its sort of a one off port of some program we offer here

its a GUI based program, and I have limited experience with CentOS

im looking to have that application start up when the user logs in

with its GUI present

I tried the rc.d script (cant recall its exact name) but that didnt seem to do anything

@terdon I only respond to interesting questions, but asking to ask is not interesting :)

how do I accomplish this?

@MarkW OK, that one really should be on the site.

Here's one:

perfect

thank you terdon

Here's another:

I never cease to be amazed at what mikeserv considers "simple".

lol

for real man

its thats simple.... them I'm a simpleton

but anyway the first link worked like a charm

hats off to ya sir

You're welcome

Thanks for the suggestions, @derobert and @casey.

@derobert ?

Is this your backport? What package? I never did find the context.

@FaheemMitha sssd, and the few packages required to build it

@derobert and what you are trying to do again?

So, backport from jessie to wheezy?
