    Sorry if that's not what you're after.


    it's what i'm looking for but they don't work. I did a stint in a call center for sky broadband and theirs is 192.168.0.1 but the Home Hub is different. I could phone BT but I couldn't be arsed

    http://bthomehub.home/ or 192.168.1.254 is what you'd use to log in on your web browser, and the default username is admin, and the default password is either admin or your serial number for the BT HomeHub.

    We had a bit of a problem with some spy-ware, adware, Trojans and a few viruses earlier and I bought Windows Vista to try out on the other computer - it's actually pretty good for what it's meant to do. So far, it's all going well for the second part, and one of the spywares had around 57 sub-entries, which we had to go through Safe Mode and get rid of and then every time in a new folder, you press Back and it opens some advertising fucker of a page.

    This is the page where I got the info from: http://www.frequencycast.co.uk/homehub.html - pretty helpful.


    They gave the Hub phone number out to numerous charities and companies and they are phoning non stop etc


    Is that not breaking the law, giving out your personal details without your consent? Methinks so. Charities I think can still call (under the EU telecommunication laws) because they're not selling you any services or goods, but companies selling you stuff like services and goods are not allowed to call without your consent - which these BT fucks should not have.
  3. Okay, question for any of our tech-savvy members:

    I'm trying to get the audio for the "Fix You" video from Coldplay. Seen Here

    The problem is, if I rip it from the youtube clip, it's not very high sound quality. I can buy the single or the song from iTunes, but it's not the same song version that's used in the youtube clip, but rather something longer even though it says "Video Edit". (at least I think it's different?!)

    Or, I could purchase the video from iTunes, but then I don't know how to get the audio ripped from the iTunes protected song.

    My ultimate goal is to get a good quality mp3 or audio file where I can edit some video footage of me rehabbing in physical therapy and put it to the audio from the video. Any ideas?

    Cheers!
    Jeremy
  4. Hey Jeremy!

    What you hear is what you get - and usually YouTube reduces quality to 64Kbps when uploaded for better streaming. Video edit just means the audio straight from the video - and you could always download it from iTunes, do the sound with Sound Recorder (in Windows), save as a wave file and mix it in.

    Or otherwise...

    Another question I have: anyone who happens to be running Windows Vista - have they had any iTunes performance problems with it?

    Used 2.0 some time ago but it did nothing to me. Both Firefox and IE had their (dis)advantages back then. I might try this one.
  9. I have windows, but use Safari (in my opinion, it kicks both Firefox & IE's arses) I don't think that one browser can be faster than another (if so, it can't be by that much), I just think that its easy to use

    Indeed - I just stick with IE7 because I downloaded Firefox and Opera and yet both just irritated me. I like IE7 for the most part because it's piss to use and sort out. Even if I did try and use a different browser, I'd probably find something wrong with it...

    Best damn web browser next to Opera - I haven't tried version 3 yet but I'm gonna download it probably on the weekend and have a play. IE7 is nice but I don't use it full-time. I use it some of the time only to test my web apps for decent performance.

    Web browsers aren't faster than each other. It all means what the code is optimized to. For example, Safari (iTunes is bad enough) Javascript may be written well and optimized perfectly, but in IE it could have extra lines of code, meaning that it would be a bit laggier. Safari is probably middle of the road if anything, and Opera is probably the fastest.

    Drew, that RS site (Senditnow.org) that you suggested previously to get around RS's awkward bastard nature, do you know what the "code" is that you have to insert along with the RS link?
