Kdenlive 0.9.6

Aspettiamo con ansia la versione 1!

Ha superato il test nella creazione basica di video amatoriali.

Unico Software video a permettere l’integrazione dei metadati all’interno dei file ogg.

Spero si specializzi nei formati liberi, cosí da diventare concorrenziale a livello professionale.

Devo ammettere che la gran parte delle volte che il software crasha é per un mio errore, o incaponimento nell’uso  inappropriato di immagini png e jpg.

Adatto alla creazione di brevi clips, ha retto un rendering di 6:30 di video con 4 tracce videoo, animazione frame by frame con png sequence, ogni livello ridimensionato e color corrected, con 20 minuti di rendering.

Niente male!

Un cruccio che ci siamo portati appresso era l’impossibilitá nelle versioni precedenti di fare “reverse speed” che ora é un effetto disponibile per far girare il video al contrario.

I can already complaiine that none of the tools for live CSS editing, support SASS or LESS  (or other pre processor).

But they speed up your life so much we cannot complaine longer.

Metadata e archivistica

Arkiwi é un archivio Audio/Video che si basa sui metadata per mostrare le informazioni dei files. Le Metatag sono informazioni riguardo il contenuto come il titolo o l’autore del brano che vengono incorporate direttamente nel file. Il sistema dei metatag viene usato comunemente per gli audio player, ad esempio il titolo metatag viene visualizzato nei players, in mancanza di cui si legge il nome del file che spesso é oltretutto impresentabile perché scritto in maniera criptica o autoreferenziale come “oei_11.ogg”. Nella messa in onda da una webradio i metatag diventano ancora piú importanti, visto che la selezione musicale viene ascoltata da persone che non sanno il nome di ció che ascoltano, l’ignoto ascoltatore legge: oei_11.ogg e spreca un secondo a cercare di decifrare. Se si fosse usato il campo Titolo dei Metatag “Otra Europa Info 11”, il display avrebbe mostrato il nome corretto e comprensibile, inoltre é estremamente comodo per il DJ poter leggere informazioni riguardo il brano direttamente da dentro il software di riproduzione musicale.

UNRESOLVED WP Multisite bugs

This post is WIP

WordPress 3.4.1

Plug in: WordPress Importer

Missed categories
“Ho notato un errore nel blog.
Zbog mi diceva che postavo le cose senza aggiungere le categorie
in realtà, quando posto le robbe dal network mexico,
mette le categorie , una volta ripostate da li nella pag centrale nn compaiono” PkT

Ravanando nell’installazione multisito trovo che effettivamente le categorie del sito principale e dei vari sottositi non combaciano.
Al contrario di PkT io postavo dal sito principale e nel correllato sito guinea le Category erano scomparse.
Ma anche le stesse categorie con stesso settings, non vengono riconosciute.
Creandone di nuove non compaiono nei siti correlati…

Ho trovato molto interessante questo Blog post
http://halfelf.org/2011/dont-use-wordpress-multisite/
da dove traggo l’informazione che google e simili potrebbero leggere i post identici di un multisito come spamming, e far scendere di visibilità l’indirizzo del sito.
Quindi sarebbe meglio limitare il numero dei Post doppioni, meglio usare pagine che visualizzano tutti i post con le stesse category e tag.

Proprio ciò che non funziona!
proverei prima con una diversa plugin:

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-sitewide-tags

“This plugin creates a new blog on your server for all the posts on your site, much like http://wordpress.com/tags ”

CSS multisito
Suggerisco di dare un impaginazione standard, a tutti i siti nel network, almeno per quanto riguarda il box selector,
dato che se il post ha 3 foto in verticale una dopo l’altra affiancate dal testo grazie al posizionamento <align=”links”>
si perde il bordo vertical and horizontal settato nell’interfaccia.

Log in
altro bug se accedo dal sito principale, poi edito il post dalla dashboard del sottosito, e lo condivido sul principale non compare sul sito madre

Rasperry Pi SPI Touchscreen X-Server

Thanks to Dominique Gallot and vis, I managed to drive a MI0283QT-2 color touchscreen on the raspi 🙂

I followed the steps at www.gallot.be/?p=197 and added the framebuffer driver by vis to run X and LXDE-desktop. 40px in vertical are missing and touch is not working yet, but it’s very funny to use a mouse on the mini-screen.

Dominique Gallot’s howto is very accurate, so these are just additional notes to avoid a few catches I noticed:

  1. Install debian –  the Chris boot kernel was not required – the module spidev is already included in the latest debian image
  2. Put this line into /etc/modules:  modprobe spidev bufsiz=256000
  3. Install wiringPi https://projects.drogon.net/raspberry-pi/wiringpi/download-and-install/
  4. Download and compile MI0283QT2-pi
  5. Download the framebuffer driver by vis: https://snr.freifunk.net/trac/vis/browser/raspberrypi/fb.cpp into a subfolder on the same level as MI0283QT2/ and compile it with:                         gcc -lstdc++ -iquote ../MI0283QT2 fb.cpp ../MI0283QT2/MI0283QT2.cpp ../MI0283QT2/font*.c -o fb
  6. Put https://snr.freifunk.net/trac/vis/browser/raspberrypi/10-monitors.conf into /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d to set X server resolution to 320×200 px
  7. Unplug HDMI ( / DVI adapter)
  8. Move all USB devices to a powered hub
  9. Use a stroooong 5V usb power supply – a 1000 mAh smartphone plug was not enough
  10. Run these commands from a terminal connected via SSH as root:
gpio load spi
gpio -g mode 18 pwm
gpio -g pwm 18 1000
./fb

start the x-server in a second console:

startx

As you can see in the pictures, the startmenu of LXDE is not really readable and the terminal- fonts are too small, but I’m sure to find some nice applications for this setup.

The gameoflife demo runs very well: its fast and stable. It uses 30-34% CPU

HeyHo, the disc is full, the disc is full…, but i found a great help:

KDirStat – Directory statistics.

Shows where all your disk space has gone
and helps you clean it up
.”

Installation in Debian and Ubuntu:

$  apt-get install k4dirstat

I think the screenshot says it all:

Every cube in the tree-map illustration represents a file or a directory. By their size its instantly visible where all the space is used up. You can click the big blocks to get a direct link to the file in the tree.

Scroogle Cookie Killer

Scroogle Cookie Killer

I use this google (TM) frontend since long time.

By using this site (as a ~proxy), google (TM) does not receive your cookie and cannot track your behavoir, as they normally do over long time periods. Scroogle stores the logs 48hours, but without IP. I just don’t find the info page..help!

Use this this link for your homepage and you will find a comic strip with info about Google (TM) every time you scroogle!

Timetracking Linux and Web Tools

Here’s a comparison of some programs in debian/ubuntu repositories, that help to keep track of your worktimes

KTimetracker
This is in the Debian and Ubuntu repositories. it is programmed for the KDE window environment, but if you have all the KDE libraries already, just run this in a terminal:

wait! update first

it’s best practise to update the repositories before installing something, to get the latest versions:

sudo apt-get update

btw: sudo is only required in ubuntu, in debian type ‘su’ to get root access

sudo apt-get install ktimetracker

++
+ Nice and simple interface.
+ Timers
You can start and stop a timer when you begin and end a working session so you get the exact time.

+ It can even watch your desktops, including the virtual ones, so you can put all your work windows for example on desktop 2 and switching to 1 is enough to do something else and stop the counter. you will wonder about the short times it tracks (without mailchecks, etc.) !

must test the export..

For me this wins, because of the desktop tracking and  (sub) timers!


Gnome Time Tracker

Installation in Debian / Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get install gnotime

++
Nice interface with description and “diary” textfields. Nice list of projects and timers to count worktime on a daily basis are integrated.


Some things in the interface are broken or not understandable: export does not allow to select a file, maybe something must be created first?

Subprojects? must test..


Tine2.0 Web Groupware

++
Nice webinterface. Besides Todolist, Calendar, CRM and few more modules, a Time-tracking tool is built into this web groupware.

+ So called “Time-accounts” represent the different projects. You can add “time-sheets” to these projects for every session or ideally the hours of every day. There are filters to show only one project or a relevant period or user. You can save these filter options as a favorite view. That’s really cool and flexible! One problem is, that you cannot redefine the default favorite, which it show at first.

+ Tine can store € per hour, “billable” and more billing infos, so you it automatically calculates the full time and price of a project.


There is no counter to start and stop the session times. You can only enter the periods, after you finished the day work. Its useful to keep track of the works of a team, but if you want to track the exact times, you need another timer-software and enter the periods from there to tine  :-/

Must test:  Exports!   It ~should~ export .ods, which would be reaaaaally helpful to present the time-sheet to clients directly or put it in a bill! But maybe i have to fill a bug report on that..


eGroupware

Is a good, old PHP web groupware with many, many modules. The project module interface is not easy to understand, but when you get it, you can even use time counters online.

++
Many functions in the projects module,…


EGroupware is a huge system, only for timetracking you do not want to install it. There are many options to setup, specially if there is more than one user, it gets really complicated to give correct permissions to everyone.


OpenOffice Table with Formulars

still the easiest and best solution?

++
+ Table calculation software offers a nice overview with dynamic calculations: Press [F2] in a table cell and you can enter formulars for calculation. This way, you can, for example, enter exact minutes and get hours by [cell] * 60.

+ In OpenOffice Writer you can keep track of times in a simple table inside a odt text-office document. No need to use Calc, the Table calculation

Also the other programs offer ways to enter billing info like € per hour.


– Teamwork? Its not easy to work together on stupid office documents. They are practically always locked by other users 😉

.odt file coming soon..

Kommentar Spam im Blog

By , June 19, 2010 13:53

Ohne Captcha und andere Schutzmechanismen schlagen pro Tag zwischen 5 und 20 neue Spam-Kommentare hier ein.

Hier werden wir die lustigsten Kommentar Spam Posts senden, die sich in dieser WordPress Installation ansammeln.

Meistens geht es um “Online Insurance” -Versicherungen und “Pharmacie” – Viagra, Schmerztabletten, uvm.  Wir sparen uns, dafür Werbung zu machen und posten hier nur Kommentare, die nicht so leicht als Spam zu identifizieren sind.

Die Adressen der verlinkten Seiten geben meistens Aufschluß über den Sinn des Kommentars. Am Besten gar nicht nachschauen bei offensichtlichen Werbe-Links und falls doch: Vorsicht vor Viren! Nicht Internet Explorer benutzen!

Das ist ein besonders komischer Text. Der Web-Link zeigt auf ein Forum-Profil, wo sehr versteckt Pokerchips für Facebook verlinkt sind. Oh, also doch Spam..



heya i posted a comment a little while back regarding how to speed up my twilight eclipse website’s loading time seeing that we made use of the very same theme at that time and someone placed a comment responding to it on my site a week ago – if that was you I simply wanted to say thank you, and if it was not you then i’m sorry to take the time you, but cheers anyways!

Der gleiche Text wurde bei etlichen Blogs gepostet. Virales Marketing?!  Schööööööööööön :-/



Nach dieser Information hatte ich gesucht, vielen Dank!
