So, this is a script that will automate the installation required for converting mkv dts to ac3 for use on the tv.

original article with full installation and use instructions

when finished, you can run

$>mkvdts2ac3 path/to/file.mkv

or

$>mkvdts2ac3 -n path/to/file.mkv to remove the original dts track.

enjoy!

I like to think of myself as an honest person… So I’ll throw this out there: I like cracking networks. I mean.. I would never crack a network that didn’t belong to me. Anyway, there are many tools out their for wireless network activities. Everything here is open source – so, there are no laws against having the software (unless you are in Germany (poor unfortunate souls (here is a link about the law in Germany))).

 

Originally from Germany, KisMAC is a wireless stumbler, sniffer, and cracker. I’ve been using KisMAC for a few years, and have been happy with it. Though the program faces challenges in making any progress in getting its self up to date with current hacking methods, It is the friendliest for Mac OS X users. It has a brand new Leopard-style GUI on the way… at least… it’s been submitted… Why the new interface is being delayed, I don’t know.

 

Kismet has some really interesting features. I haven’t used it much, but it is client-sever based, so, people can expand on it if they want ( I started an OS X GUI for Kismet a while back, but have since lost my ambition for the project. It’s open source if anyone wants to continue work on it. ).  But basically, Kismet is a stumbler, and has some REALLY nice analysis features and graphs. Also, it’s plugin system allows for the possibility of adding hacking capabilities.

 

Aircrack-ng is the leading WEP and WPA-PSK cracking program. It also has the broadest support for wireless cards. I haven’t used it much, because it doesn’t support the mac, and I don’t really like switching operating systems too much. But they just recently hit version 1.0, and updated their website.  — One of my favorite Operating Systems, BackTrack, users Aircrack-ng. ^_^
