Might just tell my mate to bring a usb round, might be easier. he's got a brand new smart tv so it will be able to read the files.

@pete-s DVDStyler does recode them I believe. It's just the program that is having issues. I know quite a few windows programs automatically recode as well.

@dashrender it's not for me, otherwise I would. Last time I burnt a dvd was a few years ago on windows.

Hi Does anyone know of any DVD burning software that will burn MKV files to DVD. I've tried dvdstyler which its good, but it comes up with config errors etc and burns blank dvd's.
havent used dvd's in a long time wondered if anyone had any ideas, I'm on debian/kde plasma.

bottle of wine and watching meet the fookers....

Sounds About right, I'm not going to even bother moaning about Micro$shit.

I went ahead and upgraded another, domain joined PC in the office (with a different PC name) to Windows 11 and tried Facebook and Instagram and they work under my profile. Just fine.

Does sound like a DNS issue. check ipconfig /all and see if you just have your DNS/Domain controller DNS entry there. if you have anything else in there you really shouldn't. If it's just your domain controller then check your forwarders like dbeato suggested.

1. Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click DNS.
2. Open DNS Manager.
3. In the console tree, click on the applicable DNS server, usually it’s the same as the server you’re logged on to.
   4.Right-click and select “Properties”.
4. On the Forwarders tab click “Edit”.

try google dns forwarders. 8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4

Just managed to put some fuel in the car, the petrol stations are all run out. Last garage in my town has only an hour left of fuel. Idiot panic buyers causing carnage in the uk.

Have you made sure you have downloaded the latest CU for that version of exchange as well otherwise it will all go to shit. Any reason why you don't want to trial 2019 when it's up to CU10?

At the end of the day, if the op want's to learn exchange that's up to him. This is a forum where we can give constructive criticism but, there is also no need to go on about it and give a little help instead. Just a thought??

I can see what others are saying, onsite exchange not really no point, but a lot of MSP's still host their own copy of exchange normally in a datacenter and you could sell your own hosted exchange to customers. This only would be advantageous with lots of users. But you just cannot beat the costs of 365 with normal Businesses.

If you want to host email, why would you use the worst platform possible to find? Why not Zimbra for example?

I'm not on about me, I personally use mailcow. But I'm stating big MSP'S and hosting companies still use hosted exchange in a datacenter enviroment.

Tatical RMM integrates with meshcentral as well apparently. Although I've only tried the demo but looks promising. https://github.com/wh1te909/tacticalrmm

So No More Hyper-V-Server: https://www.theregister.com/2021/08/31/hyper_v_server_discontinued/

I have been using proxmox and XCP-NG for quite a while now with no issues. Whats your view on this move made by Microsoft. You have support until 2024 on the 2019 edition.

What does **** mean? lol

Just moved over from Ubuntu to Debian 11 with KDE Plasma. Loving it so far.

Nice, just enough room on there for a beer.

Something like that

My Mates Computer shop used to look like this, must be a trend with break and fix shops lol

A money gesture can be nice and encouraging, but so can someone from high management to sit you aside and give you kudos personally. Sometimes personal thank you can mean so much more.
