pnix@pnix-a7n:~$

with avidemux, all you need to do is just open video file, select 'auto' menu and choose which format you want, click save that's it. I choose VCD then it's auto apply two filters for me [scaling,add black border]. Ofcourse you can add more filter if you want.


Update:
Note: encoding ~50 mins 688x384 avi file to mpg with athlon xp 1700+, avidemux take 44 mins but mencoder take only 17 mins!!!.

Too many open files

Last week tomcat log file report many error about "Too many open files" when it has high traffic. Some in catalina_log say 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpProcessor[80][272] Starting background thread 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpConnector[80] accept: java.net.SocketException: Too many open files and here is from localhost_log 2007-04-07 16:13:40 StandardWrapperValve[myservlet]: Servlet.service() for servlet myservlet threw exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/log/mylog_070407.log (Too many open files) This is because too many file descriptors're opened by tomcat. File descriptor can be limited in both system level and shell level. To check maximum number of fd in system type 'cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max'. In my case it is 65536(someone said it should set to 200000). Tomcat error when try to open socket number 272 so I think 65536 is ok for me for now. Anyway if u want to set it add 'fs.file-max = 200000' to /etc/sysctl.conf pnix@pnix-a7:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/fil...
