#1847 — Video recording Speccy games on a Mac

I did ask this a couple of years ago, but I wonder if things have moved 
on...

I want to record myself playing Speccy games on an emulator. Which Mac 
(Snow Leopard or Lion, if that matters) based emulators let me do this?

The new Fuse beta allows saving gameplay to FMF files and fuse-utils comes
with a package fmfconv that lets you transcode to various ffmpeg formats
(H.264, DVD etc. ). 

Download from the files section of the fuse-for-macosx sourceforge page
though I haven't yet looked at providing binaries of fmfconv.

OK, so how can I get hold of fmfconv that works on OSX? I could probably 
build it if it'll do so with Xcode?

I need to do a statically linked build on the command line (I'll look this
weekend). It doesn't build with Xcode.

	There's that little-known KILLFILE feature in every other
	newsreader currently in existence.

	Thanks for bringing him back from the oblivion by the means of
	quoting, however.

	(Well, just kidding, as I don't actually use Gnus scoring for
	this group.  The others may, though.)

I haven't used a killfile in years! I certainly won't start now. I'll just 
be ignoring him instead.

	Does that mean that, effectively, you're going use a "wetware"
	implementation of killfiles?

	Well, that's my current preference for low-traffic groups, too.

I'm on Google Groups so can't use a killfile; hence I too just ignore SpamTrek's posts.  Except for the one the other day, when I couldn't resist giving him a taste of his own rubbish by deliberately misconstruing his use of the term "DMA", which is the sort of thing he does, except probably not on purpose.

However, if I were running Agent, he would have ended in my killfile long ago.  Just as the emails he still persists in sending me, despite my saying here more than once that they will all be deleted unopened, arrive in my Spam folder with the rest of the junk mail.

	The problem of the "Usenet proper" is not that NNTP user agents
	are inherently "worse" than HTTP ones, but that setting up one
	of the former is easily ten times as hard as setting up a
	Google Groups account, especially for those who already have
	accounts on a dozen of other Web services.

	However, I believe that there /can/ be a Usenet-like (or
	Fidonet-like, if you like) network, with all the "killfiles and
	local spools" of Usenet, yet as simple as taking a few clicks to
	set up an account -- either free or paid for, and allowing all
	the weird stuff common to the Web of today, such as exchanging
	photos and the like.

	Somehow, however, it makes me doubt that those active on today's
	Usenet will be the ones to bring such a new network into
	existence, or even to join one once it's started...

	... Thanks to Google Groups, however, for providing easy access
	to my posts for my less computer-savvy acquaintances.
	Unfortunately, now that they're making a switch to a
	JavaScript-based interface, my guess is that they won't be
	accessible anymore to anyone but those who use one of the
	"major" browsers.  FWIW, I've left them the following bit as
	"the reason I opted to use the old interface:"

    Unfortunately, the new version relies on running site-provided
    executable (JavaScript) code on my computer, which, although not as
    insecure as running site-provided .exe files, I still do not
    anticipate.

    Besides, it's incompatible with Lynx, my browser of choice.

	I guess, there's still hope that given enough feedback of such a
	kind, they may revert their decision to take the current,
	pure-HTML, interface down.

is it possible to record two types of avi video file
one at 50Hz and one at 60Hz - most people are watching zx spectrum pal 50Hz tv video recordings on 60Hz monitors on there pc
that is what is ruining them

#2173 — Re: Google Groups

I don't want any of that, I like text only, but then I'm rather biased 
against web forums for hopefully obvious reasons. What the heck is hard 
about setting up a news client? If you can set up an email client then you 
can set up a news one, and with the current high profile of yahoo etc having 
their webmail address books raided, I'm keeping my address book safe and on 
a machine I can turn off when I go to bed or am othersie engaged, nudg 
nudge.

While it seems bizarre to people like you and me, most people seem to 
have forgotten what "native client" means.

I suspect most people can't set up an email client these days either.

In my experience most people don't even *know* what an email client
is, they think everything is "the web", and access everything via the
web.

Whose bright idea was it to ditch decades of desktop UI experience and  
reimplement everything in slow, clunky JavaScript? Would have made much  
more sense IMO just to develop some good cloud/network technologies and  
attach them to fast, responsive desktop apps, rather than trying to  
reinvent Windows entirely in a browser.

Slightly relatedly, has anyone else felt that it's a pity that most modern  
software will become lost and unrunnable -- since it neeeds a (usually  
private and unreleased) server side as well as the client side -- and even  
the client side doesn't come in a box with manuals, but is a bunch of  
pages on a Web site that nobody would bother to save anywhere? I can't  
imagine a future WoS-type site being able to preserve any of the current  
Web-based applications, so they'll be gone forever except for screenshots.

Eq.
