Haha, exactly! > You guys really are a fucking joke, you know that. Now, that's an insult. To comedy as well.

By definition, even in my professional (d'uh) world, "professional" means doing something as a profession. "Amateur" means not so, or more correctly, as already pointed out, for the love of it. If I do programming in my spare time and without earning money with it, it'll always be as an amateur, even if I do it "in a professional fashion". To participate in the Olymic Games, you used to have to be an "amateur", and where not allowed to be a "professional", by the way. And they didn't mean wanna-be vs. quality. BTW, "are at least amateur software engineers or enthusiasts" may have been meant as an insult, and apparently taken as it by some of you, but I read quite the opposite. I thought it to mean "most are at a quite good - or better - level of software engineering, and therefore expect you to understand that compiling is easy". Enough of the English language. What was the original issue again? Ah, man pages. Plenty of solutions offered already. What was wrong with macports or homebrew now? :-P _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
