Video DivX (and XviD) and subtitles
DivX is a codec (coder-decoder), an algorithm that allows compression of video files to make sure that they take up less space without a significant loss of quality.
XviD is a free, open source, DivX.
There are sites such as "Italian Subs Addicted ,
www.italiansubs.net, where fans of the boys become available subtitles Italian translation of the American and British television series format with the extension .srt.
Questi files si possono poi incorporare nel flusso video con appositi programmi.
In pratica la sequenza delle azioni è la seguente:
-Scaricare dal sito www.italiansubs.net i sottotitoli.
-Unire con un apposito programma il file video con i sottotitoli (con Mac OSX io utilizzo il programma ffmpegX).
-Masterizzare su un cd o un dvd (io utilizzo di solito i supporti riscrivibili).
-Vedere il filmato su di un lettore divx.
Invece di unire file video e sottotitoli in un unico flusso video è anche possibile masterizzare su un dvd il file video con estensione .avi e il file con i sottotitoli con estensione .srt avendo cura di utilizzare lo stesso nome per il file video e per il file contenente subtitles, for example, video files 1x01.avi, 1x01.srt subtitle file, then the reader will ask if we want to use a divx file with subtitles or not.
In this case you must burn the DVD as DVD-ROM (UDF).
course you can also watch the movie on the PC - in this case using a video player like VLC - taking care to put the two files in the same folder with the same name, of course, only the part before the extension as in the above example. Without this, VLC will automatically show the subtitles.
recently have become popular on the network file "matryoshka", with the extension. Mkv.
They, too, such as files ending in. Avi, are container media, but can, unlike the "avi", handle high-definition content.

Why GNU / Linux
Why GNU / Linux
My interest in the Linux operating system comes from the desire to feel part of a community, part of a movement that has made the free movement of the source computer's a fundamental freedom: the possibility that, if you want and if they have the capacity to "look under the hood" to see how it works, and, ultimately, to make changes that will meet your needs, then making these changes available to other users .
When it comes to Linux or GNU / Linux Reference is made to programs for which is freely distributed and made available the source code.
The software is usually distributed in its binary form, that is ready for use.
Before creating the binary (the file pippo.exe, so to speak), it is written as source code. Now the source code of computer programs of the houses are not distributed, so it is impossible, even for a computer engineer, to understand how the program works: the hood, in short, can not be opened except by using complicated test that also is forbidden by law (reverse engineering).
codes in their source form is then applied to a process that called a compiler from which we get the binary running.
If the software is, as I read someone says, a gift from God, it should not be closed and rendered indecipherable but must be freely available to all. The availability of source code and the freedom to copy the software (despite the horrendous campaign that said quote: "Copying software is a crime!"), Must be insured.
But here comes the bad news: with Linux you can not remain passive users should be aware of the complexity of the computer and go for the mode line of text to be users of this operating system.
To begin the step remains difficult to install: I have been helped by a book that I recommend to those who want to learn Linux: From Windows to Linux ", by Paolo and Roberto Attivissimo Odoardi, for types of IDG, which is also available on- line search Attivissimo.
also in all the major Italian cities there are groups of users, "Linux User Group", comprising people who are willing to help newbies.
In Genoa, my home town, there are even two Linux User Group, the Lugg and the "Genuense Linux User Group", GLUG.
E 'have to do a Google search to find the group of Linux users closer to home.
addition, every year is organized the "Linux Day", during which users show visitors the possibilities offered by the system.

Homage to read
Homage to read "In omnibus requiem quaesivi, et nisi in angulo cum nusquam inventory book."
The first experiences have taught me to appreciate the written word go back to elementary school days. A teacher "enlightened" we did have to read "Marcovaldo" by Italo Calvino. Could not have chosen better book for the children who had just learned to read and write. The prose of Calvin, simple and plain, I opened a new world of words, images and emotions.
Even today, when I browse the novel, reading is influenced by childhood experience first, so that it's hard to tell if the pleasure I feel when I read it is related to the prose of Calvin or the memory of that first contact with the literature.
Then came the years in which the written word was mostly made up of texts contained in the "balloons" in the "clouds of smoke" of comic books, pictures and words, a different kind of reading, other emotions.
Years pass, other prevalent forms of expression, radio, television, newspapers, all important, useful, essential, but the pleasure, the pleasure of reading literary works was to be born, grow. It could be the book that he had discussed in a TV talk show or board of prof. literature, but always the greatest pleasure was to be lost between the pages of a novel as you can get lost in the woods: After Calvin: Primo Levi, Gadda, Borges, Raymond Queneau, Proust and many others, and each was a new trail in wood literature.
Each new reading added something to the other, cast a new light on the books that I've read and what I read. Some readings, a job explaining to other books, I immunize against other diseases through reading, as the herdsman or the lyricism, that acted as a sort of "cow culture."
I discovered that there is literature that is an end in itself, not seeking social or moral justification (I think, to mention only two names, and Manganelli Nabokov), and there are those who would use writing as a means of passing messages, but as someone said the usual response of a stupid question journalist: "what message he wanted to convey with this?": "if I wanted to send a message would not have written a novel, I sent a telegram."
In this way the experiences related to reading are growing in layers one on top: sometimes the love an author can make me want to learn a foreign language (as happened with Proust and Queneau the French language) , sometimes love can make you wish for a book to visit a country or city (as happened with "A Moveable Feast," Hemingway's Paris.)
short, as Italo Calvino wrote: "reading means facing something that is just beginning to exist." The adventure continues.
