Hey Raj others... Right now I need to go for a meeting, but I will answer each point if and when I get the chance... meanwhile, here's a rejoinder from me...

Re: [ilugd] Linux graphic PC!
dear all, karunakar had actually raised this question to me in a personal email, so i wished this to move to the mailing list where all may enrich the discussion and also find a public archive for future reference and evolution. thanks everyone so far, for adding details especially on RAID, as the real bottleneck with media-editing is storage of binary large objects (blobs). some comments inline: On Jan 2, 2008 7:20 PM, G Karunakar [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, I have been looking to assemble up a PC - primarily to be used for 1) Graphics, Photo editing, printing , management, Blender etc. 2) Running multiple distro's in Xen (or other virtualization). tangential recommendation: triple-boot a macbook with macOS, win, linux, and run cross-pollinated virtualizations under it as well. good fun. So whats a recommended hardware -for motherboard, graphics card, Monitor, photo printer etc which are better compatible.. Intel Core 2 Duo or Quad Core / AMD Athlon X2 either. don't worry too much about the marketing talk. the critical performance required for desktop graphics workstations is well-surpassed here. [snip] the box would run Debian testing/unstable with other distros configured through Xen. hmm.. my two shillongs (!) on distros: use debian testing in one partition, unstable in another, and also add ubuntustudio 7.10. you'll soon discover how this ecosystem gives you the best of all worlds. with ATI/nVidia graphics card (I guess as of now only binary propreitry drivers work well). have played with nVidia on this 5-year old machine. the opinion of a lot of people these days i interact with, points towards ATI. if i take a nVidia GForce 7200 etc card, would blender utilise it well? (i wonder so on linux!) i doubt it. not blender's fault. the underlying OS support is the key. so far i've noticed that all the wonderful, top-end features available in high-end graphics cards are hardly supported under linux. all that may be changing with the announcements in 2007 from ati and nvidia. as a pragmatic approach, i'd recommend don't pick up the latest blatest graphics card with high-end features, until you're sure it is fully supported. the key operative word is 'fully'. otoh, if you get your basic support from it, and wish to risk full support within a few months/years downstream, go ahead. waste of money though. 2-4GB RAM 4GB is the minimum. see if you can touch 8GB. this is where the real bottleneck arises. Na MAYA3D milegee na RAM. 2x320 GB HDD. watch it fill up within weeks or a month or two. hence RAID. Good LCD/TFT 17/19 monitor? which can do good color.. (preferably non-wide screen), can these be color-calibrated well or using CRT is better? CRT is better. besides you do have a laptop, so you can always compare the differences in LCD and CRT with the same image. expect a lot of new technologies over the next few years that will make LCDs and plasma and even newer technologies (laser projection monitors) surge far ahead of CRTs. alas i have yet to see stuff trickle down for commodity desktop monitors. if you're interested in real color-calibrated monitors, and have the moolah for it, consider either buying a professional CRT monitor with calibration hardware built-in, or better yet, buy yourself a handy spectrophotometer and color-calibration device. with this, you can calibrate monitors, printers, scanners, et al. think of a spectrophotometer as a device that takes photos of colors, not of images. i've played around with a few, and love them. okay, almost all CRT monitors for desktops are more-or-less of the same quality. so don't bug yourself too much with which to buy. the real insight is no matter what you buy, color tends to drift with time. most professional color calibration references tend to recommend calibrating monitors once a month or at best, fortnightly. my experience over 15 years shows that this is incorrect, especially for india with our extreme power conditions, extreme weather, and other factors. therefore, i tend to calibrate once a day, first thing in the morning, after 30 minutes of switch-on. am always surprised at how much drifting happens. secondly, after three years, replace the monitor with a new one. you won't notice the difference since your mind tends to attenuate the subtle and gradual degradation over a daily basis. a body under constant observation never changes. :-) finally, the art and science of color calibration and color-management has very little dependency on devices and workflows. it is far more important for you to develop specific skills regarding color. as part of my professional consulting over these 15 years in digital color, have often come across professionals working in jobs to do with color, who tend to soley rely on their purchasing power and their devices to 'automagically' color calibrate and color manage. alas! the most critical component of digital color and professional color, is the human. an uncalibrated

Re: [ilugd] muft and mukt youtube equivalent?
dear all, [snip] youtube with its flash and other properties may be avoided been researching. found a highly-interesting article that explains it all. found this paragraph the *most* interesting: [excerpt] But there are other reasons besides to consider including Free Software formats in your video publishing activities. Chief among them is the fact that large corporate video sharing websites like YouTube feature often unpleasant, ambiguous terms of service for those uploading files to their servers. Among others, Boing Boing's Xeni Jardin reported on the troubling issues surrounding sharing your video through YouTube. She notes that: ''YouTube's new Terms Conditions allow them to sell whatever you uploaded however they want: …by submitting the User Submissions to YouTube, you hereby grant YouTube a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable license to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, and perform the User Submissions in connection with the YouTube Website and YouTube's (and its successor's) business… in any media formats and through any media channels. Among other things, this means they could strip the audio portion of any track and sell it on a CD. Or, they could sell your video to an ad firm looking to get edgy; suddenly your indie reggae tune could be the soundtrack to a new ad for SUVs. The sky's still the limit, when it comes to the rights you surrender to YouTube when you upload your video.'' With terms of service like these it really is worth thinking twice before uploading your video to this proprietary, mega-corporate hosting service. Sure, they have more videos and viewers than anyone else, but the price could be your freedom, and control over your content. [/excerpt] reference here: http://www.masternewmedia.org/online-video/video-sharing-and-publishing/how-to-watch-online-video-with-free-software-20070301.htm the above reference also clearly mentions some alternatives that help encode, publish, and distribute using muft and mukt values, fileformats, engines, and more. which ones do you recommend? i also feel this topic must be raised at freed.in 2008 regards niyam if you could recommend video-sharing websites that take open fileformats (which do you recommend?) with open licenses, and data portability...? thanks in advance for your responses. regards niyam -- niyam bhushan -- niyam bhushan ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22/23, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

dear all, 01. transferred this footage from my miniDV camcoder over a firewire card straight into kino running on ubuntu feisty. a few years ago configuring firewire was a real pain under gnulinux. now it's transparant. have card, will travel. kino is a gpl video-edit software. http://kinodv.org 02. video trimmed directly in kino, which is sensible enough to understand segments from the tape automatically. 03. created the simple title and credits using kino's built-in titler effects filter. for subsequent video-submissions, have figured out how to author more sophisticated titling sequences. 03a. transition effects such as fade in and out rendered through kino. 04. downloaded and installed ffmpeg2theora. 05. joined three segments into one in kino. one-click stuff. 06. exported ogg theora file, from the 720 x 560, to 640x480, directly. the original raw dv is 540mb. the final ogg file a mere 23mb. 07. created an account on blip.tv after recoiling away from youtube's draconian terms--and-conditions. http://niyam.blip.tv 08. blip.tv automatically transcodes ogg theora to flv, and also allows me to offer the option of the original source ogg theora to visitors. cool! 08a. extracted a still image from kino to use as the thumbnail for the video gallery. 09. blip.tv allows choices of creative commons licenses to be applied to the video. 10. automatically links it to my flickr account, and once i start a blog, to it as well. also allows other rather interesting features, such as link to myspace, etc. 11. optionally, also adds to archive.org if i have an account there. 12. rss feeds to miro, even itunes, available. 13. direct upload from mobile phones to blip.tv possible. 14. option to allow your videos to be suitable for mobile viewers as well. all the way till HDTV. w o w ! in fact, blip.tv encourages you to publish at broadcast quality while using high-compression. 15. lots more to this stuff. am specifically excited and fascinated by the paradigms and workflows available under a 100% foss value-system and while using gnulinux. suddenly, video is just becoming the coolest thing to do under foss. discovered kino outputs flash format files directly too. thse are *.flv, and also *.swf with some xhtml wrappers. interestingly, blip.tv asked for a java runtime edition (JRE) to be installed under firefox for me to view the video. was hesitant to do this due to the problems i faced last month with my system. however, braved it and installed the JRE. fortunately, everything worked flawlessly. next step, take the videos that prof andrew handed me of freed.in sep 2007 and pull out some segments. those interested to pitch in, we could meet next week and collaborate on doing this. recommend we create a separate group id for this on blip.tv, either ilug-d, linux-delhi, or freed.in. let the discussions begin. regards niyam -- niyam bhushan ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22/23, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/

[ilugd] Linux webcam
Bought a webcam yesterday, thought I'd share the experience... I'd given a long list of supported webcam models to my friendly neighbourhood hardware pusher, Amit Kalra. Unfortunately the webcams that seem to work well with Linux (at least according to Google) seem to be pretty high priced -- Rs 4000+. So Amit suggested that I try out the 2 el cheapo webcams has he had lying around in his office, and promptly turned up with them. One was a Quantum QHM500LM, which reportedly supports up to 4 megapixels with their proprietary drivers. The other was an HP VGA webcam for notebooks. Tried the Quantum webcam first with the gspca drivers. The cam got identified, and device /dev/video1 (video0 is my TV tuner card) created. Unfortunately all apps I tried just gave me a black screen on capture. Switch to the HP cam. That was even worse -- I couldn't find drivers for it at all. Back to Quantum. Being in a fix, I decided to do some RD. Fiddling about with the Quantum cam, I noticed a small black rubber cap on the lens. With the intuition and logical powers of a Sherlock Holmes, I deduced that this could have been the cause of the black picture. To those of you who have closely studied and applied my methods the next step may be obvious, but let me state it for the record: You webcam will NOT allow you to view anything until you remove the lens cap. Woah! Remove the cap and I actually see some sort of picture in the XawTV screen! Of course, it looks like some sort of ghostly figure right out of a badly-made Ramsay Brothers movie, but WTH, at least it works. Now to fixing the problem. The kernel gspca module has about 20 parameters that control its behaviour. I tried each of them in turn, varying the values to extremes and back to means. Unfortunately nothing worked -- the picture only got messier. Since I wasn't in the mood for trying out all possible combinations of options (at least 20 factorial), I put on my thinking hat and decided, if the first problem (black screen) was physical, why not this one too? Ah, the lens of the camera screws in and out. Oh my $deity, if you screw the lens in, you actually get a clear picture too! Now I can see myself clearly in the XawTV window... I immediately got down to the most important use of a webcam, setting my hair ;) Picture quality is adequate. I get 640x480 with the kernel gspca drivers, which is quite enough for my needs (now I have to figure out a use for the cam), and the cam does some automatic adjustment of exposure depending on what sort of light you are in. Haven't tried any advanced applications (streaming, etc.) with it yet, will report if/when that works. The command I use for viewing: xawtv -n -noxv -device /dev/video1 (or video0 if this is the first capture device). You can also test the cam in mplayer and ekiga. Haven't actually tried a video conference yet, I probably need mode bandwidth for that.

I understand where you are coming from. I understand the irritation that Raj mentioned people would have when they get irrelevant emails. But is it only me here who thinks I cant tolerate when some people from time to time doesn't match up to the high standards of mailing list behavior expected by this list?
