Better pray for Theora's mass adoption on streaming sites :-) I have this fantasy that if I design and build a better streaming video format, They (broadcasters) will use it, if properly marketed. This would be despite the lack of strong DRM or license terms (GPL v3 is OK, right?). The idea is I build a public version, then sell a custom corporate version that is buzz-word certified with whatever standards they want (except strong DRM; incompatible with the license) for ~$30,000 a seat, or some volume [del]license[del] purchasing agreement. I got the idea when I realized that the current formats used by broadcasters suck. Most are based on MPEG that had some processing constraints no longer present (to the same extent) on modern computers. General idea: 1. Do away with the outdated concept of live. There is always a delay. Make the delay predictable and visible to the user by sychronizing clocks with NTP. A live broadcast would have a calibrated delay ranging from seconds to minutes. pre-recorded would be minutes to centuries. 2. Modify Bittorrent protocol for Steaming media. There is already (incompatible) work in this area. 3a. Separate Lossy Compression from Lossless Compression. This will result in a variable bit-rate stream. I came up with a (fast) transform so that the lossless compression stores only the changes between (key) frames. 3b. Optional Variable frame-rate stream: new frame only needed after a certain percentage of the scene changes. 4. Publishers are authenticated with a Public-key infrastructure 5. For UDP or Broadcast, a format variant tolerates data loss with graceful degradation. Main stumbling blocks: 1. trying to do too much at once: file format and protocol rolled into one. 2. For interoperability, I need to stabilize key points of the spec before publication. Currently struggling with date stamps (taking into account leap seconds) (mostly resolved), and a transform to allow the publisher to be authenticated even if some data is missing. 3. Because my idea is variable data-rate, I can't predict what real-world compression will be. need to do testing. As compression may be affected my MPEG artifacts, need to test with my own raw video. (Loss-less conversion from MPEG would be possible.) 4. A dual-license may quickly result in a fork that implements features I really don't want to see. (Read: anything deliberately incompatible.) 5. I seem to be pre-occupied with the video compression, ignoring sound. Regards, James Phillips PS: was this too off-topic? __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

If not, is there an automated/semi-automated means of installing it -- or am I back to the old days of installing dependencies manually? Why not use the one that came with the system? /lib/libz.so.4 You won't be happy if you manage to get two of them installed; use the one already present in the system by default.

This is different. If by some odd chance you are talking about this in php.ini: zlib.output_handler = /lib/libz.so.4 - I have noticed a problem a time or two in the past with certain PHP apps. I run with mod_deflate also and sometimes PHP apps balk at running with both. The advantage of using libz in php.ini is it compresses the PHP output stream, while mod_deflate is only good for static content. The above is kind of confusing, but wrt PHP there can be a difficulty if the app has written in it's own zlib compression routines internally. You can't do the compression in PHP twice. On apps where I have experienced problems, it was either turn off libz compression in php.ini or disable the .gz compression setting in the app's setup/configuration utility. I always opted for the latter, as this would maintain the ability for other apps in a default fashion. You'll know if this problem is present if when you try and access a PHP page you either get a page full of garbage or the server errors/crashes with a 500 server error. Just to be thorough, there is also a php5-zlib extension, which the construction of some apps may require. -Mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I know that PHP would cause a dump in the php.core file and not apache.core. How do I inspect the core file to find out which module caused it? Thanks Have you any special php5 modules loaded. I had a problem with I want to recall three or more extensions that would cause apache2X to dump core or halt in doing any further actions upon request. If the above is the case you can disable some or all of your php5-extensions in local/etc/php/extensions.ini to test it out. Best of luck. Thanks, I followed your suggestion and removed all but the necessary modules from the extensions.ini. I will have to wait and see if it helps the core dumps. So at this time I have the following in the extensions: extension=gd.so extension=mcrypt.so extension=mysql.so extension=simplexml.so extension=spl.so extension=mysqli.so extension=session.so extension=tokenizer.so extension=xml.so PHP is still slow though! ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
erros with raid5 dell poweredge
hi list, today after some work on server, it froze and because I live 50 km far away that server, my buddy has assisted in recovery. After rebooting, he took some photos and wrote me, what he saw / did. Before resetting of server, these messages have been appearing on screen: aac0: COMMAND 0xc77. (that part changes) TIMEOUT AFTER 2280 SECOND aac0: WARNING! Controller is no longer running! code=0x180 there was an unresponsive login dialog, after typing login name, no password prompt has appeard. After reseting server by power button and rebooting, before freebsd boot dialog, this message surprised my buddy: Container#0 - RAID5 203GB Critical 1 Container found Bios installed succesfully After that, server normally booted and is up now.

zfs root
Hi, I have a quick question about freebsd on zfs root. I have built a few test systems all work fine. I have one question though. Does the loader replay any information when it accesses the pool? Basically im interested in how or what is done on reboot after the kernel panic or power loss. Are there any safe gaurds with regard to the zpool integrity? ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I don't know about the other guy, but I find the Adobe Flash Player plugin pretty odious.

Publishers are authenticated with a Public-key infrastructure That caught my attention. I don't think we necessarily need a mainstream style implementation of PKI, though. I'd say either go with simple public key digital signatures in the style of OpenPGP or take cues from the Perspectives plugin for Firefox and do distributed web of trust style verification. Certifying Authorities are basically just a social engineering trick; now, instead of trusting one party, you have to trust two. 2. For interoperability, I need to stabilize key points of the spec before publication. Currently struggling with date stamps (taking into account leap seconds) (mostly resolved), and a transform to allow the publisher to be authenticated even if some data is missing. There are copyfree licensed implementations of date management that take leap seconds into account out there already. Is there some reason you can't borrow liberally from them? 4. A dual-license may quickly result in a fork that implements features I really don't want to see. (Read: anything deliberately incompatible.) That's just another reason to go with a copyfree license instead of the GPL. 5. I seem to be pre-occupied with the video compression, ignoring sound. PS: was this too off-topic? Maybe? I don't know.
