We can rent pairs with 1 receiver and 2 mics, but as Andy pointed out earlier, we need to ensure that they provide a sufficient number of channels and balanced XLR outputs from the receivers. > > [1] > http://www.keksound.com.br/produto/1808/imagem/4/0/microfone-sem-fio-karsect-kru301-m-uhf.jpg > [2] > https://cdnv2.moovin.com.br/chedas/imagens/produtos/original/sistema-de-microfone-sem-fio-duplo-uhf-com-2-bastoes-de-mao-u585-jwl-dacbbf0e356cd1804febc60f4bb3f22a.jpg > #H12 1/4" TRS jack to XLR female short adapter cable #H13 3.5mm TRS jack stereo to 2x1/4” TRS jack mono #H14 SDI (BNC Plug → BNC Socket) cable reel for audience camera >>> >>> Photos too, please. >> >> #H12 - >> http://elitecoreaudio.com/store/media/catalog/product/cache/2/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/x/l/xlrf-trs_3.jpg >> #H13 - http://i.ebayimg.com/images/i/272277546739-0-1/s-l1000.jpg >> #H14 - >> https://images.pvs.global/procab/products/PRX107-50.png?width=2048&404=default-6 > > Nice! > The photo for H13 is empty.

Re: Setting sReview for the Marseille and the Hamburg mini-confs

I'm currently back in Belgium for my sister's wedding, and we're flying back home to Cape Town on the 8th, so joining this meeting is going to be complicated. Beyond that though, I'd be happy to set things up. I'll have a look at doing so next weekend. So, I did that (have a look) today. Setting up SReview requires me to do these steps: - Add the event to the database (done!) - Review ~sreview/sreview/config.pm and update for the new event, in sync with the changes made to the database where relevant (done!) - start sreview-web inside a screen session or something (done!) - Parse the event schedule and add it to the database (see below) - Create an event-specific template for opening and closing credits, or use the generic one (todo) Thanks Wouter! Unfortunately, the marseille miniconf's organizers went very very french on me. There is a schedule, but it says "This schedule might be amended until the last moment." Fine, so I was going to create something to parse and auto-update the schedule in the SReview database. Except that's just... not really possible? Or something. - Individual talks don't have start and end times (only the sessions do). SReview assumes it knows when a talk is supposed to start, because the first cut for that talk is generated based on that information. - The schedule is only available as part of a bootstrap webpage, which was written with no regard for structuring the tags: h4 follows h5, and all data is in a with no real link to the date and time, etc etc. Of course it's possible to parse this (everything is possible), but it seems like a lot of work that I'd prefer to avoid if possible. Does anyone know who organizes the schedule? Can we ask if that person has a somewhat more structured version of the data online somewhere? Bonus points for some well-known format (e.g., penta xml), that would make it easier for me to parse things. One of the REQUIREMENTS if you want a Debconf or Miniconf streamed is that you have clearly defined talk times - yes it helps us as the video team, but more importantly this time is publicised so people around the world can watch the live stream. It is very IMPORTANT that talks are kept to this schedule otherwise remote participants / viewers may miss the talks that they intend to partake (this is also true, for people attending the talks in person *IF* they are not attending *every* talk). Can the Team members attending please remind the MiniConf organisers of this While we're at it, does anyone know if the miniconf marseille prefers any particular opening or closing credit thingy? If not I'll just use something generic. Thanks, /Andy
