Apple Posts Steve Jobs Celebration Video from October 19th

You can paste the following line into Terminal:
Code: 
for i in {0..486}; do curl -O "http://qthttp.apple.com.edgesuite.net/11ajdjnvkjnd10weoihf23ohfoihqw/2540/fileSequence$i.ts"; done

Be warned, that it will download 400+ number of files in the directory you are in. So first you probably want to create a temp directory, then execute the command above within there.

By the way, how do you mux the files together? Which software can mux .ts files under OS X?

I think mkvtoolnix might be able to do that but not sure.

NullPacketStripper will do it. (Google for NullPacketStripper_v013beta)

How do I know? That's what I used to concatenate the 487 .ts files together to create the file I uploaded to MegaUpload. 😛

(I was going to just use cat in Terminal, but sometimes .ts files can have NUL bytes inside them, which is probably why it's called NullPacketStripper.)

P.S. I had no idea I could upload a 1.5 GB file to MegaUpload, but you can't download it without a Premium account. 😱

Jonny Ive was pure class. That guy should've been the CEO.

It takes more than class to be CEO. Jony is an artist, but Tim is a skilled operations manager.

Although I posted earlier about Jony's brilliant speech, I think Tim's role at the Celebration was more difficult. Tim had to keep his emotions in check while acknowledging the sadness of the event and helping the Apple community to recover and rededicate itself to the work Steve loved so much.
 
I'm going to watch it tomorrow, though I'm kind of dreading it… I'd convinced myself I was over it, but this sounds like an emotional roller-coaster /sadface
 
Jony 4 Keynotes

If you have seen this fantastic, sharp and awesome speech by Jony Ive in the video....there's only one guy for future keynotes...
 
Well, Jony ... you got me mate.

By the end of his speech the tears were running down my face, not only because of what you said, but how you said it. You could see the mixture of hurt and almost anger in his face as he fought back the tears.

A lovely tribute from a lovely bloke.

I've tried using this program but can't get it to select multiple files, how did you do it?
 
Lost it at Fix You, the lyrics are bang on his history of being booted out and coming back to Apple.

And when Tim looked to the photo of Steve and began "talking to him" ... lost it again.

I hit the same problem, so I resorted to the terminal.

Here's how I did it:

1) Rename the first 99 files so that the sequence number is 3 numbers long, so fileSequence1.ts becomes fileSequence001.ts, and so on. To the Unix gurus out there, yes, I know there's probably a neat 'sed' command to do this, but it was quicker doing this than identifying the correct command! 😀

2) At the terminal prompt type:
cat * > newfilename.ts

That's it! Seems to have worked for me.

A lot of people have said it brings closure, and to an extent it does.

But for me, the sheer outpouring of love for the man was evident. For all the stories of him being hard to work for, being feared, it was nice to hear from those closest to him at Apple. Every top businessman, every successful businessman, needs a lethal streak otherwise their companies wouldn't excel ... but Steve was very likely a nice guy who was tough when the time called for it.

Jony Ive's facial expressions alone were moving, I've never seen so much hurt (and anger) in his face before. Tim held it together well, he looked close to losing it a few times, and Coldplay's rendition of Fix You was fitting as the lyrics seem to tie in to Steve's past and return to Apple:

When you try your best but you don't succeed - the first Macintosh, despite being a game changer, didn't sell well.

When you get what you want but not what you need - Scully.

Lights will guide you home, and ignite your bones, and I will try to fix you - coming back to Apple hell bent on returning them not only to former glory, but bettering them after the mess Scully and those who followed left HIS company in.

Thank you to Apple for making the video public.

Hmmm tried that, it created the huge *.ts file but crashed Quicktime, VLC whenever I tried to 'skip'

Given up and downloading the pre made torrent now, thanks tho!
 
I would love Apple to put this on iTunes for a fee of around $10 and all proceeds from it, go to a cancer charity chosen by Steve's wife.

If the Music artists are not happy with that maybe the could add another $5 to the fee for their royalties.
 
If I were Tim Cook, I would (for a while at least) leave the super large image of young Steve holding the Macintosh fondly, like a toddler in his arms, over the entrance to the Apple Campus.

Along the bottom, I would post the Mantra:

"Love what you do. Love why you do it."

NullPacketStripper works fine if you add a dot before the numbers (fileSequence.001.ts) 😀
