1]- Rip DVDs: VLC includes a basic DVD ripper.

You probably would never use it when there are better

DVD rippers available, but it helps to know that you can in fact, get a decent quality DVD rip with VLC.
To rip a movie follow these steps: Go to the Media menu and choose Convert/Save. Click on the Disc
tab.

* Here you can adjust the Starting Position and rip only specific titles or chapters.
* Enter file name making sure to end with .MPG, and start ripping.
* Click Save.

2]- Record videos: With the new VLC, you can record videos during playback. The
record button is hidden by default. To see it, click on View>Advanced Control. The
record button will now appear. Clicking on the button while playing a movie or video
will start recording. Clicking again will stop recording.

3]- Play RAR files: Do you know VLC can play videos zipped inside RAR files? They play
like normal video files and you can even use the seek bar. If the RAR file is split into
several files, no problem. Just load the first part (.part001.rar ) and it will
automatically take the rest of the parts and play the whole file.

4]- Play in ASCII mode: VLC media player has an amusing ability, to playback movies
in ASCII art. To enable ASCII mode, open VLC media player and click on
Tools>Preferences. Open the section “Video” section and under “Output” select
“Color ASCII art video output” from the drop down menu. Save it. Now play any video
file to enjoy the ASCII art.

5]- Listen to online radio: VLC includes hundreds of Shoutcast radio stations. You just
need to enable it through Media>Services Discovery>Shoutcast radio listings. Now,
open the Playlist and browse through the stations.

6]- Convert Audio and Video formats: In VLC you can convert video and audio files
from one format to another. Several different formats are supported like MP4, WMV,
AVI, OGG, MP3 etc. To access the converter:

* Go to Media>Convert/Save.
* Load the file you want to convert using the Add button and click Convert.
* Now choose the output format and output file location.

7]- Download YouTube and other online videos: First grab the URL of the YouTube
video page. Now click on Media>Open Network stream. Paste the URL and click Play.
Once VLC starts streaming the video, click Tools>Codec Information and at the bottom
of the window you will see a Location box. Copy the URL and paste it on your
browser’s address bar. The browser will now download the file which you can save it
to your hard disk. Alternatively, you can record the video.

Enable checkboxes for selecting files in Windows Vista

Explorer
Posted on Mar. 3rd, 2009 by boffin

You’re probably used to hit either CTRL or SHIFT to select multiple files (one by one
or a consecutive bunch, respectively). However, if you accidentally misclick, your
selection is lost and you have to start over.
This is would not happen if you’d be able to select files in a checkbox manner, would
it?
To implement the checkboxes, simply do this..
1.) Go to folder options
2.) Go to the View tab, scroll down under the Advanced Settings area and tick the
option: Use checkboxes to select items
3.) When hovering over a file or folder in Explorer, a checkbox will now appear near
it, allowing you to select that item.

Speed up acrobat reader loading….

Posted on Apr. 4th, 2009 by boffin

Do u get irritated when acrobat reader takes 5/10 seconds to load when you want to open a pdf
document. There is a way to speed up the loading.

1. Go to the installation folder of acrobat reader

(C:\program files\adobe\acrobat\reader\.. whatever)
2. Move all the files and folders from the “plugins” directory to the “Optional”
directory. (I repeat.. cut and paste the files NOT copy & paste).

Also make sure that acrobat reader is not open else it will lock the files and not allow
you to move the files).
Now your acrobat reader will load very fast and almost as good as notepad..

Cellphone Its Powers and Facts You Never Knew

There are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival. Check out the
things that you can do with it:

]- EMERGENCY : The Emergency Number worldwide for **Mobile** is 112. If you find yourself out of
coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search
any existing network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can
be dialed even if the keypad is locked. **Try it out.**

2]- Have you locked your keys in the car? Does you car have remote keys? This
may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your
keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell
phone from your cell phone.
Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your
home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end. Your car
will unlock. Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no
object. You could be hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has
the other “remote” for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Note: It works fine! I tried it out and it unlocked my car
over a cell phone!

3]- Hidden Battery power: Imagine your cell battery is very low, you are expecting
an important call and you don’t have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a
reserve battery. To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this
reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get
charged when you charge your cell next time.

4]- Disable a stolen Mobile Phone: Check your Mobile phone’s serial number, key in
the following digits on your phone:* # 0 6 #. A 15 digit IMEI code will appear on the
screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere
safe. When your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them
this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes
the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless.

You probably won’t get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it
can’t use/sell it either.
If everybody does this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones
