Well, if you take the video out from Tatasky you can pretty much do whatever
to that feed without the server knowing anything. Their T&C mentions that
you shouldn't be recording the video, so have a look at the manual to
clarify that.
Here's a simple way to do what you want to do:
All you need is a Graphics card with Video (or S-video) out, and an video +
audio input card.
Set your video out as a monitor, then on that monitor:
Play the video on the system using any app that works.
Create an app or use some that will act like a ticker. You could just make a
gif or flash animation for that.
Keep this application over the video.
Use the video out from the PC as your final video. (or use a screen capture
app)

hi,
this is a new field for me, I need to have scrolling and flash announcements
displayed on a tv screen (digital tv) while users are watching normal programs
on tatasky. How is this done? what equipment and software needed? And no, I
have not googled for this as I have no idea what to search for.

Can any one help me :
two of my PCs have gone into 'grub rescue'. I tried (now I think foolishly)
to install ubuntu 9.10 (which has this new grub animal 'grub 2') . And that
is buggy. I just dont know how to come out.
Very strange and *S C A R Y *
1. One machine has existing windows. It had ubuntu 8.04 . I deleted the
partition so I could install ubuntu 9.10 . Now the machine refuses to
recognise usb stick, usb CDROM so I cannt even boot from them.
2. Other laptop : i thought I will not touch the system that is working
fine( ubuntu 9.04) So I used USB CDROM and ubuntu 9.10 disc on it to create
a usb stick for 9.10. I did boot from USB CD and chose the stick to install
and chose not to install grub as I wanted only one OS on the stick and
thought grub will be redundant. (While installing it had asked location of
grub on HD(0) etc and that was not relevant . I thought). So I happily ended
the process disconnected USB CD ROM drive and restarted the laptop and again
I got the sacry 'grub rescue >' prompt
I looked up help on the net but , like some previous sufferers , I got no
good help.
I am sure there is some good help I can use.

I had reported problem of grub rescue on two machines earlier. Gladly that
has been solved completely in one of my two machines.
However on the second one, somehow my USB CDROM is not recognised. So I
tried to create a USB stick. I could do so very well.
However when I use this on the PC, the cursor gets stuck on prompts as this

Apart from each time I tried to use USB disk creator in 9.10, it failed to
create a disk. Did same on 9.04 and it worked fine, so must be something to
do with the first cuts of Karmic, which I am sure will be ironed out after a
few weeks. 8.10 and 9.04 created USB startup disks just fine.

I need to add an additional ethernet interface in a router box and I
have run out of PCI slots (board does not have any PCI-express).
However, there are a bunch of unused USB ports that I can use.
Please suggest USB NICs that are supported by Linux *and* available @ Lam Road.
Brand/Model and shop name would be highly appreciated. Speed is less
important, as long as I can get about 10Mbps on the iface - it will be
used to connect to the ISP link.
TIA

The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS! See your Yahoo! Homepage. http://in.yahoo.com/
Hi ,
Our government is churning out one hazardous bill after another. This
time it is a bill called the Civil Liability for Nuclear Damage, and
it's coming up for a vote in a couple of days.
The bill lets U.S. corporations off the hook for any nuclear accidents
they cause on Indian soil. They'd only have to pay a meagre amount,
and Indian taxpayers would be stuck paying crores for the nuclear
clean up and to compensate the victims.
Without any public debate, the Prime Minister is appeasing American
interests and ignoring our safety.
Greenpeace is launching a petition asking the PM to hold a public
consultation before introducing the bill.
I have already signed this petition. Can you join me?
