16:22.37PoeticIntensityI set up red5 here in office for a video conferencing demo.
16:22.39mgearyyeah, gonna hit up #utahpython on it shortly
16:22.42jsmithWould you say you have a plethora of issues?
16:22.57PoeticIntensity:)
16:22.58mgearyjsmith: i'd say more like an gaggle
16:23.04PoeticIntensityI need to hang around here more often.

16:24.31PoeticIntensityit's addicting...
16:26.06SunSparcI think the rankings should be weighted with the number of times rated.

17:12.58undertakingyoumacnewbold: ping
17:16.29undertakingyouAnyone here have any experience with imagick?
17:17.45SunSparcUsed it once or twice.
17:17.56utahconWhy not just use the ImageMagick functions?
17:19.19mindjujui love imagemagick
17:19.27jsmithundertakingyou: What are you trying to do?
17:19.28mindjujuthough it's been prolly 4 years since i used it
17:19.46mindjujubut was doing thumbs, watermark, etc, etc
17:19.51undertakingyouI am trying to take a picture uploaded by the user and resize it so that it will load faster.
17:20.19PoeticIntensityhold on a sec... I've done that very thing.
17:20.26PoeticIntensitywith imagemagick
17:20.30undertakingyouI thought I needed to use imagick,
17:20.37undertakingyoubut if I don't that is cool.
17:20.50mindjujui thought imagick was an abbrv for imagemagick
17:21.06undertakingyouno, it is a pear module
17:21.13undertakingyoufrom pecl
17:21.16mindjujuoh
17:21.18mindjujuweird
17:21.24utahconit is a pecl API for the ImageMagick API
17:21.26utahconlol
17:21.29utahconthat is built into PHP
17:21.31utahcon;)
17:21.42undertakingyouutahcon: it doesn't come bundled with php
17:21.50undertakingyouit has to be compiled with it or added later.
17:21.58utahconoh right...
17:22.04utahconbut the API is there if you enable it.
17:22.06utahconmy bad.
17:22.17undertakingyoubut still, I thought I had to use that, and that I could not use imagemagick directly.
17:22.24utahconto use imagik don't you have to have ImageMagick enabled in PHP?
17:22.35mgearywhy not use GD?
17:22.39utahconmmm GD
17:22.42mgearyi've got a class i can give you that uses GD
17:22.47mgearydoes exactly what you're asking
17:22.48mgearyand more
17:23.04undertakingyoumgeary: That would be sweet
17:23.15mgearydo you have GD installed?
17:23.26undertakingyouimagemagick does have to be enabled for imagick
17:23.40undertakingyoumgeary: I don't even know what GD is, but I am a good learner
17:23.52mgearyit's a graphic processing library/extension
17:23.58mgearyhttp://us2.php.net/gd
17:24.14mgearyvery handy
17:24.38fungussee imagecopyresized
17:24.44mgearyyep
17:24.49undertakingyouok, looking at phpinfo() GD is enabled on the webserver.
17:24.55mgearybut like i say, i've got a class that abstracts much of the resizing stuff
17:24.56mgearyokay
17:24.57mgearyyou're all set
17:25.01mgearyhold please
17:25.05PoeticIntensityhttp://rafb.net/p/73EUW380.html
17:25.07undertakingyou:), thanks.
17:25.45funguslol, that's one way to use ImageMagick.  :)
17:25.59PoeticIntensitypretty hackish, but it works.
17:26.23utahconanyone played with the image resizing in flourish?
17:26.25fungusBut you are using GD to get the image size, that is funny.
17:26.35fungusWhy use one library when you can use 2
17:26.53utahcondon't stop at 2... go for the gusto ... 3
17:26.56PoeticIntensitytrue, true.
17:27.02PoeticIntensitywoot!
17:27.10mgearyhere:
17:27.20mgearyhttp://www.treelinegroup.com/download/ResizeImage.php.zip
17:27.33mgeary$im_re = new ResizeImage($path_to_input_file);
17:27.33mgeary$img_ref = $im_re->resize_limitwh(80,200,$new_filename);
17:27.56mgearyresize_limitwh will proportionally scale an image to fit the specified "box"
17:28.02mgearyin that case, 80x200
17:28.13mgearythere are other functions on the class that do related stuff
17:28.18undertakingyouso if I say 150,null, it will just leave the height?
17:28.26mgearyno
17:28.33mgearyif you want to resize just on width...
17:29.17mgearymight not do that
17:29.19undertakingyousorry, that isn't what I mean, if I say 150,null it will proportionally adjust the height
17:29.21mgearybe easy enough to add
17:29.39mgearyno
17:29.48mgearyit would probably try to fit the image into a box 150x0
17:29.56undertakingyouoh,
17:30.13*** part/#uphpu mastergunns1 (n=mastergu@c-71-199-7-162.hsd1.ut.comcast.net)
17:30.27mgearybut surely you have *some* height limit that you could pass
17:30.28undertakingyoubut if I say 150,1000 it will proportionally adjust the height, so that is ok.
17:30.30mgearyright
17:30.51mgearydisclaimer: i didn't write the original class, but i've hacked it up quite a bit

17:58.25beandogit was the barracudas
17:58.28mindjujuwhich scares me cause i just bought 2
17:59.11tierrayeah, that wasn't good news, especially after the whole firmware issues on 1.5TB barracudas too
17:59.23tierrathe write cache freezes
18:00.05mindjujui've got to check if mine are in the LOT
18:00.59tierraST31500341AS <- those need firmware upgrades if they're running SD15,SD17,SD19 fw
18:01.23beandogthat reminds me, anyone used XFS?
18:01.56fungusI used XFS way back before ext3
18:02.08fungusNot for anything high performance though
18:05.05fungusFYI, that external drive I linked to is not affected by the firmware bug
18:05.15SunSparcJust got me a new 100TB drive to backup my iTunes library.

18:06.14SunSparcYeah, I know, I am dreaming.  But someday that may be our conversation.
18:06.35SunSparcYeah, I got this new 500TB thumb drive.  It rocks.
18:06.45funguslol
18:07.40tierrayeah, only really fits 5 or 6 holodeck programs though
18:08.07SunSparcYeah, I know, it is a small one.  But really, on the road, I only need a couple holodeck programs.
18:08.34SunSparclol, state the nature of your medical emergency

19:14.18mindjujubeandog, you still around?
19:14.28beandogyah whats up
19:15.59mindjujuit's a vid question.  if i need to change the size of a video (but not the aspect ratio) would there be quality loss to do it from a rendered avi of the project, or would it be better to do it from within the project and recreate the avi
19:16.10mindjujui'm thinking right now it depends on the codec that was used in the avi
19:16.35beandogmindjuju, no, they usually look better when they are scaled down
19:16.43beandogassuming you're going to watch it on something really tiny
19:16.54utahconmindjuju: what is your intended target?
19:16.56utahconweb?
19:17.06beandogwhats the original size
19:17.14utahconwhat is the format used in your avi?
19:17.16beandogand codec

19:37.07beandogthe power of XML-oriented programming?
19:37.15beandogBecause every language needs 95% more metatags!
19:37.58utahconIt only uses 30 statements and four data types (node, string, number, and boolean) to create any application or service you can think of.
19:37.59utahconreally?
19:39.46jsmithLooks serious to me... looks very much like XSL

19:42.17beandogI dunno
19:42.21beandogI dont think I'd couple XML with *easy*
19:42.52beandogalthough if its just kind of an abstraction layer, that makes a bit more sense.
19:42.57beandogor something.

20:24.10fungusDSL + Xmission here
20:24.14mgearysame
20:24.58mgearywe've been having to reboot our Cisco 678 router almost daily lately. Our internet is fine until boom, it stops working. A router reboot works fine, but it's getting frequent enough to be annoying
20:25.15mgearyseen anything like that?
20:25.21fungusI had that same problem.  
20:25.32mgearytime for a new router? firmware upgrade?
20:25.53fungusDSL line was throwing lots of errors
20:26.08mgearywhat's the fix?
20:26.22fungusthe real fix is to contact Qwest to fix the errors.
20:26.38mgearyhow can i help them substantiate the issue?
20:26.38fungusBut a new router can make those errors less problematic
20:26.55jsmithmgeary: I had that problem a couple of years ago... turns out it was a combination of overloaded upload on the DSL, plus bad line card in the CO
20:27.01fungusAny newer router should be able to handle the CRC errors and such.
20:27.39fungusI switched back to my Craptiontec until Qwest fixed the line.
20:27.50mgearyhow did you get them to fix it?
20:28.03utahconhow did you determine the CRC errors?
20:28.06mgearywere they able to confirm an issue over the phone?
20:28.07fungusCalled them, and gave them the info
20:28.18mgearywhat info? just description of symptoms?
20:28.18fungusActiontec's have a pretty detailed WAN status page
20:28.28fungusand the Cisco 678 can get the info too
20:28.31mgearyhow?
20:28.37fungusshow int wan0-0 or something like that
20:28.40mgearysec
20:28.45fungusperhaps it was show int wan0

20:33.00fungusyeah, that doesn't sound too good.
20:33.02jsmithmgeary: YEah, sounds like line errors
20:33.12jsmithmgeary: You could reset the stats, then see how quickly they climb

20:43.43mgearyapparently clearing stats disrupts the connection
20:44.05mgearyso, they're giving me the old, "well, normally we see some things here if there are problems in the line..."
20:44.43mgearyanyone know what "Interleaved RS Corrected Bytes" reflects? That's counted up to 7. Is that something i can beat them up with?
20:44.59mgearyi've also got Interleaved Symbols with CRC Errors at 2
20:47.12fungusCorrected Bytes is not a big deal.  CRC errors is an issue if it increments fast.
20:47.12fungusonly 2 isn't a big deal
20:47.12mgearyyeah
20:47.12jsmithAnything more than a hundred or so per hour is a big deal
20:47.12mgearywhat's "fast" ?
20:47.12mgearyand what weight should i place on Local versus Remote?
20:47.12jsmithnone
20:47.12mgeary'cause before i cleared the stats, i had 2 local CRC errors, but 65k remote ones
20:47.18mgearythink it's those remote errors that are causing the problem?
20:48.09fungusboth are a big deal, but if they are all local, you could try swapping out the router with another one.  Just in case.
20:48.18unumthey could have been from a past issue, so watch and see if it keeps going up
20:50.18mgearyhey, undertakingyou, did that ResizeImage class work out for you?
20:54.28SunSparcSooooo, Xdebug vs Zend Debugger??
20:54.51mgearynever used Z.D., but i love xdebug
20:55.15mgearybtw, "Interleaved RS Corrected Bytes" has jumped from zero to 65280
20:55.19mgearyshould i care about that?
20:55.47mgearythat must be some sort of max number, since that's also the count i used to have of "Severely Errored Frames" and "Interleaved Symbols with CRC Errors"
20:55.54SunSparcmgeary: What IDE do you use?  Or do you?
20:56.04mgearyTextMate & BBedit

20:59.29mgearyif TM could do diffs like BBedit, i'd be fully on board
20:59.55jsmithmgeary: If the number suddenly jumped to 65k, that's a big deal
21:00.36mgearywell, the lady i'm talking to just glossed over it
21:02.13jsmithmgeary: She's not a tech... she's a filter.  Don't get filtered out!

23:44.46mgearyhey, i used to have this problem where ssh-ing into a machine would produce a 30-second lag before i'd get in
23:45.00mgearyi searched around, and found the reason (seems like it was DNS-related)
23:45.10mgearybut now i'm seeing that again, and i can't recall the solution. Any ideas?
23:46.23unumturn off reverse dns look up
23:46.32unumon the server side
23:46.42mgearyhow?
23:49.43unumlooks like : VerifyReverseMapping no
23:50.12mgearyi'm not sure this is serverside. i even get it when telnet-ing into my cisco router
23:53.42unumwell the issue could be that your client side network doesn't support reverse dns
23:53.50unumif you have control over that you should fix that
23:54.41unumbut if you can't there are ways to tell your linux servers not to worry about it
23:55.05unumyou could also add an entry to the host file for your ip
23:55.18mgearywell, i'm ssh-ing via ip address
23:55.27mgearyso perhaps it's not DNS related
23:55.46unumit still does a reverse look up on your client ip
23:56.22unumthe easiest way to check is to log into the server and run host on your client ip
23:56.38unumby client ip I mean the ip as the server sees it
23:56.42mgearyright
23:56.51mgearyand indeed, i'm getting a big delay
