 +====== Movie Night ======
  
 +To quote from the original Movie Night charter:
 +
 +    Movie Night is organized by and for friends and members of the UC
 +    Berkeley Astronomy Department. Its mission is to present movies few 
 +    have seen, but all will enjoy. This mission is often ignored, but its
 +    spirit always lives on.

 +The inagural Movie Night movie was [[http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0113613/|The Last Supper]]. It was repeated for the restarting of Movie Night in 2006.
 +
 +Also, certain movies opening in theaters might be worth seeing; including anything that stars Daniel-Day Lewis.
 +
 +Movie Night also occationally gets taken over by its evil twin, Bad Movie Night, for screenings of such gems as [[http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0104418/|Highway to Hell]], [[http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0102422|McBain]], [[http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0091499/|Maximum Overdrive]], or [[http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0080120/|The Warriors]].  These screenings usually involve a more select announcement list, a big living room, and beer.

 +====== Watching movies on the 9-panel display ======
 +
 +On the third floor of Campbell Hall we have an awesome (and under-utilized) 9-panel wall display with speakers attached.  Unfortunately, using this display is not straightforward - you can't just plug into the back of it.  There are two ways to interface:
 +
 +  - Connect over wifi with [[http://www.mirrorop.com/|MirrorOP]]
 +  - Connect to the Mac computer that is directly plugged in to the display
 +
 +The first is great for presentations, but much too slow/buggy for watching a movie.  The second works great, but we do not have access to the physical computer, so we have to improvise.
 +
 +**Any movie accessible with a browser is easy (i.e. NetFlix).**  Just fire up chrome/firefox/whatever and go watch it.
 +
 +**DVDs (or movies on a hard drive) are hard** but totally possible.
 +
 +===== How to stream a DVD to the 9-panel display =====
 +
 +**CAUTION:** the movie-streaming system described below is fragile, at best. \\
 +
 +
 +When has the difficulty of a task ever dissuaded UCB grad students?  (Ok, actually a lot.  But ignore that for now.)  Let's watch a goddamn DVD on that 9-panel display! \\
 +**PLAN:** we will use a desktop computer to play the DVD and stream it over the network to the Mac 9-panel computer.
 +
 +**Set up the stream server**
 +
 +  - Locate a Linux computer in Campbell with a DVD drive (preferably plugged into Ethernet rather than on WiFi). It needs to be running an SSH server that you can log in to.
 +  - Confirm that you can play your DVD using [[http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html|VLC]]
 +    - Note that you may need to [[http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/04/enable-dvd-playback-ubuntu-14-04/
 +|enable DVD playback on Linux machines]]
 +    - Set up the [[http://www.howtogeek.com/117261/how-to-activate-vlcs-web-interface-control-vlc-from-a-browser-use-any-smartphone-as-a-remote/|web interface]] for VLC
 +      - You may want to set a web password.  By default the user name field is blank.
 +      - We'll set up port forwarding over SSH from the other computer, so don't worry about firewall issues or anything
 +  - Log in to the 9-panel computer
 +    - The mouse and keyboard are stored in the 5th floor office
 +      - You must have the correct mouse and keyboard, and you should confirm that the batteries aren't dead
 +      - The login password to the computer is printed on the keyboard
 +  - Open up two SSH tunnels to the streaming server from the 9-panel computer
 +    - You need to [[https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSH/OpenSSH/PortForwarding|forward]] ports 8080 (the web interface to VLC) and 8081 (where we'll stream the movie itself)
 +      - port 8080: <code> ssh -L 8080:localhost:8080 your_name@your_server </code>
 +      - port 8081: <code> ssh -L 8081:localhost:8081 your_name@your_server </code>
 +      - Sometimes these tunnels will be shut down if there's no activity.  You can run the following command in those SSH tunnels to prevent that: <code> watch -n 30 echo 'hello i am alive' </code>
 +  - Run VLC on the server and stream the output to port 8081 (I usually just do this within one of the SSH instances above).
 +    - command: <code> vlc -vvv dvdsimple:///dev/cdrom --disc-caching=30000 --sout '#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,acodec=mpga,vb=3000,ab=256,deinterlace}:standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=:8081}' </code>
 +    - Some parameters you may like to change:
 +      - Location of dvd drive: <code>/dev/cdrom</code>
 +      - Size of disk-read buffer in milliseconds: <code> --disc-caching=30000 </code>
 +      - Bitrate of video stream: <code>vb=3000</code>
 +      - Bitrate of audio stream: <code>ab=256</code>
 +      - Port you're streaming to: <code>dst=:8081</code> 
 +      - [[https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Streaming_HowTo/Command_Line_Examples/|Other examples]]
 +      - [[https://www.videolan.org/doc/streaming-howto/en/ch03.html|full guide to streaming]]
 +  - Open VLC on the 9-panel computer (should be on the desktop) and the remote control
 +    - In VLC, open a Network location and go to <code> http://localhost:8081 </code>
 +    - In a browser, go to <code> localhost:8080 </code>
 +  - Enjoy.
