Yes, assuming they haven't modified FFmpeg.

From what I gather if you want to use Amazon's Devpay service your customers have to sign up for an amazon.com account. If they can get rid ofthat restriction like Paypal then things will be a whole lot easier.

I tried it out but had problems with entering information in the form. Every time I pressed enter it created a new text box that was difficult to deal with. (IE8 Windows XP)

This happens with quite a few programmes that we have imported from the US. Off the top of my head I can think of Mythbusters and Ice Road Truckers which are dubbed by a British narrator with a lot of the dramatic music removed. All in all

We use Flexiscale because of the low cost per core. CPU power is our bottleneck. Flexiscale has also been cheaper for us owing to the weak pound.

They are definitely not reliably accurate as representations of the realities they purport to represent. Yet certain parts of the news media treat them like proper statistical polls.

I'm guessing (as with Amazon S3) it's not possible to host a root file - hence http://dl.dropbox.com/xxxx/whatever won't work.

Tabs are useful but I would like to create groupable tabs. Right now I have lots of browser windows open to do this but I'd like to see something like: topic1 --> Tab1, Tab2, topic2 --> Tab1, Tab2, I usually have a row of tabs on

I don't have an opinion either way on this Mac/PC thing however I do think that the marketing is quite interesting. For many years Macs have been portrayed as "cool", with all the "Mac vs Pc" adverts as well as the indirect appeal from the

I'm not sure how they can have video transcoding as a use-case when their only variables are RAM and storage space. There's no CPU speed variation or the ability to access more cores; you are just stuck with what happens to be available on

MogileFS might be what you're looking for: http://www.danga.com/mogilefs/ with an nginx or lighttpd frontend. The documentation is a little sparse though the mailing list and irc are useful for help. Also it would somewhat depend on your

Additional bandwidth will help, but Cuban's point is that there's too much uncertainty in the ability to deliver video over the web (let alone high def video). HD is certainly possible over the web. (see my profile page if you want). It's
