How to use VLC 2.0.1 on Macbook Pro for MxPEG Streams Live View

MxPEG support was added as of Version 2.0.1.

"Just download any version over V2.0.1 for the platform of your choice. Remember (as per the WIKI above), if you want to use VLC Player to retrieve the live MxPEG stream from the camera, you will need to specify the --ffmpeg-format=mxg option on the command line." ---Graham Smith
The Wiki http://wiki.videolan.org/MxPEG has the following information

AppleScript to Sort the Address Book and Clean the Mess

My Old post to sort the Address Book on MAC for Duplicates and Corrupt Data was with AppleScript which was not quite efficient and fast, hence rewrote the whole script.

The Script does not delete nor modify any data, hence its safe to use, however i suggest that you should backup the database. the "SortAddressBook Advance 2.0.1RC" does the following

1. Make the following Groups based on Names
"USER Duplicate Names" --> all Contact are sorted on the full Name ie First Name + Last Name
"USER Duplicate First Name" --> all Contact are sorted on the first Name
"USER No Last Name" --> all Contacts with No Last Name are sorted
"USER No Names" --> All Contact with No First and Last Name

An Application for Cleaning up the Address Book on Apple MAC's

During the last few weeks of travel I was stuck in the Airport and Highways waiting for the flood water to clear.. and also during the flights was trying clear the mess in the Address Book due to Sync with IPhone and the BB with the Address Book Updated from Mail.app.

In short, it was impossible to go through each of the ID and Correct them, after searching on the net for some utilities which could sort the Address book, I could not find any which was fast ( takes hrs for my 1700 contacts) or not to my requirements, hence wrote the applescript to do the following

The Script work its way through all the contact is the address List.. and creates Groups
1. Duplicate Email Id's — List of Contacts with same email ID's including Contacts where the email Id is entered twice.. (Strange.. Address Book Issue, copy of the email Id under work & home)
2. Duplicate Phone — List of Contacts with same Phone Numbers including Contacts where the Phone Nos is entered twice.
3. Duplicate Name — List of Contacts with Same Names
4. Duplicate No Name — List of Contacts without the First Name and Last Name
