Hey y'all, does anyone know of a program that can edit text streams (subtitles/captions) in situ in quicktime movies on a 68k mac? I've discovered ffmpeg completely mutilates the formatting and quicktime doesn't seem to let me do all the edits I need to do to make them display properly.

a.k.a. cursing ffmpeg and deciphering ICCVID.DLL while dreaming of building a youtube proxy Here's what I have so far, using a 15 second test clip and cinepak compression ffmpeg's implementation of cinepak is far too slow to be usable for on the fly conversion, running at approximately...

Yeah but there’s so little documentation because people weren’t just creating their own CAs back then. I think I’ve found a list of the proprietary fields needed for a CA cert to be recognized by Netscape 3 (oddly enough in some old oracle documentation) but I won’t know for sure until I’m done...

Right, and the point of this project is to bump SSLv3 clients to TLS 1.1+ on the local network using a mitm-capable proxy server. Which is what mitmproxy is supposed to be able to do. That said, I’ve made some more progress on this project and have swapped out mitmproxy for a custom build of...

So yes, the 32MB Radeon 7000 issue has to be some sort of firmware bug or limitation as it fails to output 1920x1200 over its dvi port.

RAMDACs shouldn’t affect DVI output tho, should they? 

Considering the 16 MB Rage 128 in my 7300 can push 1920x1200 I’m sure it’s a firmware bug of some sort.

Someone with more experience than me wrote an entire article about it. http://www.synack.net/~bbraun/ati7k.html

You can also put a PCI Radeon 7000/Radeon VE in a 6400, which gives you DVI, VGA, and S-Video. I have a 64MB VisionTek brand card flashed for mac in mine - the brand is important because most PC cards don't include enough flash for the full mac rom, afaik only the 64MB visiontek and some...

I'd be interested to hear what you come across for polishing the cube. I've been working on mine (which has a spot of fogging on the inside from either acetone or CA glue I assume) by hand using Meguiars ScratchX and PlastiX polishing compounds, which are my usual go-to for restoring glossy...

Geforce 2MX is generally the next option people choose. The cube specific version is just as much of a unicorn, but the regular Mac version apparently works with active cooling, or you can use a Geforce 4MX or ATI Radeon 9000 if you relocate the VRM, fabricate a custom face plate for the card...

Of course! I hope you have all the fun with your cube, it's a gorgeous machine. Also, be extremely gentle with the kickstand on the back if you buy any apple monitor of that era. My 15" LCD studio display has a broken stand and all I did was look at it wrong. :'(

A stock cube will have a single ADC port and a single VGA port. That monitor will connect directly to the ADC port without any adapters - the ebay description is describing a different monitor than the one pictured. The DVI-D to ADC adapter is only necessary if you plan to put a graphics card...

Just echoing that SSDs are worse than spinning disks when it comes to backwards compatibility. I know for a fact that newer PNY and LiteOn SSDs also don't work in my G5s, so cheaper brands aren't any better.

I haven't tried making a paste of it, no. That's a good idea!
