Fixing DirectX on "Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs"

posted Dec 11, 2010, 9:45 AM by Chris Franklin

If your like me and using WinFLP ("Windows Fundamentals for Legacy PCs") then you've probably notice that when you choose not to install IE , Media player, etc. That the DirectX that it installs is not complete and well basically for that it is does well nothing for you as far as gaming goes. Well heres a script that will fix that for you. And heres what you'll need to run it.

Another PC running Windows with the version of DX you want and still has the server service running. And next you'll need this script below (Your going to want to replace all "REMOTEPC" the with the name of your other PC).

Side note : I do prefer running WinFLP on ANY PC that needs XP or "higher". For if no other reason then it runs smoother, uses up way less resources (basic install with themes still running only uses ~70-80 MB of ram, and I've even gotten it down to 50 Mb and with no functional loss to the user). It's got a lot smaller base (after install it only uses about ~650 MB HD space). And as far as functionality goes it identical to WinXP SP2.

And again like I said I run this EVERY WHERE I "need" windows, regardless of how monster us the PC maybe !

mkvmerge strip out unwanted tracks (batch)

posted Nov 20, 2010, 6:47 AM by Chris Franklin   [ updated Nov 20, 2010, 7:14 AM ]

Heres what I was trying to do
  1. strip out all non english audio tracks
  2. strip out all subtitles except for signs/songs/opening/etc
  3. name each audio track by it's type (in this case "AC3, 5.1 channels")
  4. name the video track by the files title wiht out the name of the show (aka 01x01 - bob instead of Air - 01x01 - bob)
  5. remove all extra attachments to the files
To do this I mixed up a simple custom mkvmerge script and a find command. In mkvmerge script I needed to look at the given file name and create a title for ther video track from that. To do that I this.

Create title

title=`echo "${file}" | sed -e 's/Air\ \-\ //g' | sed -e 's/\.mkv//g' | sed -e 's/\.\///g'`

All that really amounts to taking something with the file name of 

File name

./Air - 01x01 - bob.mkv
and turning it into

Title Name

01x01 - bob

Next I needed to keep only the audio & subtitle tracks I wanted. which ended up looking like this

Keeping only selected tracks

-a 2 -s 4 -M 
Broken down "-a 2" means keep track #2 and treat it as a audio track. It does NOT mean  keep audio track #2. mkvtools treats everything like a generic track regardless of that type of track it is. So you always care about the track NUMBER and nothing else. 

The "-s 4" means keep track #4 and treat it like a subtitle.
The "-M" means keep NO attachments (aka strip all attachments).

Now you might what to clean up the names of those tracks. To do that just use "--track-name " then the track number:Name_of_track  like this.

Name Tracks

--track-name 1:"${title}" --track-name 2:"AC3, 5.1 channels" --track-name 4:"Signs and Songs" 

And put all toghter here is my runme.sh script that will be called by find.

runme.sh

#!/bin/bash
file=$1
title=`echo "${file}" | sed -e 's/Air\ \-\ //g' | sed -e 's/\.mkv//g' | sed -e 's/\.\///g'`
echo $title
mkvmerge -a 2 -s 4 -M --track-name 1:"${title}" --track-name 2:"AC3, 5.1 channels" --track-name 4:"Signs and Songs" -o "${file}.mkv" "${file}"

And here is find command.

Find command used

find -iname "*.mkv"  ! -iname "*.mkv.mkv" -exec sh runme.sh '{}' \;

And in doing all this we went from this
