Midsommarfest
Posted by lars | Filed under Personal, Swedish
Thats right bitches. Jag sätter ut annonsen redan nu. 20e juni kör jag midsommarfest ute på landet i gula huset (you know where). Kött att dänga på grillen får tas med, potatis, snacks och sallad och bål kommer att finnas. Kommer att skicka ut inbjudningar via mail via Google Calendar. Ni som tror att ni är bjudna är nog mycket riktigt bjudna:)För er som kommer från stora staden och inte har någonstans att ta vägen – hojta så tidigt som möjligt så kirrar vi övernattningsslafar.Finns 2 platser i skön säng. Finns en soffa som nog 2 ryms i. Finns madrasser för 2 på golvet. Kanske finns en husvagn för 2-4 till. Först till kvarn..(om nu inte alla redan har bokat annat).Min plan är att dra igång redan typ 13-14 på dagen på midsommarafton och festa in till småtimmarna.

Add AVI MKV or other file formats into iTunes
Posted by lars | Filed under Mac, howto
The simplest way to add basically any file format into iTunes is to make sure you have the developer tools installed (it comes with your Mac OS X cd) and just go to the directory of your movie/audio files and do this (in this example I’ve gone into the directory where I have a ton of MKV files):
SetFile -t “MooV” -c “TVOD” *.mkv
Then Mac OS X will identify the files as Quicktime movies. Other than that, nothing has changed, it’s still MKV files, we still need Perian installed to play the files/be able to use the codecs. Oh and if you like me have 720p MKV rips, importing the files into iTunes will take a really, really long time. Of course these files wont work on your iPod, but thats not the point here, the point is to have a tidy nice iTunes on, say your Mac Mini which acts as a HTPC, and being able to have a nice, clean Front Row experience with Movie artwork, info and so on.
Update Jan 26/09: Be sure to check out these comments below, Videodrive seems to be a good piece of software to help you out and also check out Marcus tip about using Quicktime to “save as mov” in order to get iTunes to like the mkv better.
Update Apr 25/08: Adding artwork and stuff seems to crash my iTunes. Gargh! Even though it’s slow as hell to add the mkvs and I cant really view the movies with coverflow or add artwork..its still my best bet as of today.
