Don’t Install Jaunty Jackalope Ubuntu 9.10

Saturday, April 25th, 2009

Ubuntu 9.10 is bad… very very bad… for some reason all it does is create problems with the drive itself and constantly creates bad blocks etc…

Thank you community

So I’ve made an effort over the years to give back to the internet, if I write some great piece of software I publish it on every forum available to all. Also over the years I’ve worked to migrate many people to Linux and the open source world. Well today is great I’ve come across an open source (GPL 3) licensed web video player for flash vid’s.

Flow Player 3.1 (http://www.flowplayer.org/) is an embeddable flash player without any extra youTube like garbage. You can skin it and pretty much do whatever you would like thanks to the GPL.

So once again thank you open-source community. You’ve once again provided exactly the program I need without any of the drawbacks!!!

Conversion from .MOV to .FLV

Friday, April 24th, 2009

To convert from quicktime to flash video in ubuntu or on linux in general make sure you have ffmpeg installed and flvttool2 then you just have to run the conversion.

ffmpeg -i (filename.mov) -ar 22050 -ab 128k -b 400k -s 320×240 -aspect 4:3 -f flv – | flvtool2 -U stdin (fileout.flv)

Touted as another Christopher Moore

you’ve been working on getting michiganhomesforeclosures.com updated with the new design that will work with the blue logo much better.

it’s something like robs-rev-4.png or .psd also there were a few changes I failed to change id due to a wine related incident.

Update the header text, drop the stroke and change font-family to Georgia…. looks good that way.

Also added an arial bread crumb below the top nav above the h1 section and finally I had added the information on the realty office in the footer.

Do all that stuff again when you get to it tomorrow.
