Ray Augé 16 Years Ago Good job Rich! That was pretty fun to watch.(PS: Use xvidcap instead of recordMyDesktop, it produces better output, and can record directly to flv.) Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Rich Sezov Ray Augé 16 Years Ago Thanks Ray. Creating this was actually a bit of an adventure. :-) Xvidcap would crash once about every 20 seconds, so I gave up on that. I actually wound up using a combination of vncrec and Istanbul (only because I only found out about Istanbul after I'd done most of the recording). The weird color flashes all came from the vncrec footage, so I don't think I'm going to use that again to do one of these. I then spliced it all together in Cinelerra, exported it to Ogg Theora, and then converted that via mencoder to an mpeg for YouTube. The file size difference is really interesting. Theora: 56.4MBAVI: 77.8MBMPEG: 107.7MBIn any case, the whole thing was created entirely in open source, free software--even the music. Please sign in to reply. Reply as...

If it were narrated, it would probably take longer than 10 minutes. I'm not a fast-talker. :-) I had thought of starting it off with a voice over sounding like that movie preview guy: "In a world, where web sites are hard to build....," etc. Hey, maybe if we got Alvin the Chipmunk to do it.... :-) In any case, there's a document floating around which outlines the exact steps. It's due to make its debut at JavaOne, and then should be available hereabouts afterward. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel

Alvaro Del Castillo 16 Years Ago Rich, really cool but it is a pity that the quality of the video image is not good enough to understand easily what is really happening in the video. Do have a better quality original video? The idea is wonderful and I think that it is a really a great marketing tool. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Rich Sezov Alvaro Del Castillo 16 Years Ago Hey Alvaro!Yes, I have a much higher quality video. YouTube crunched it down, though if you go out to YouTube and watch it there's a link to view it in higher quality (though it's still small). If you want a higher quality one, let me know and I'll get it to you. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel

Peter Shin 16 Years Ago This is pretty neat. Can you send the higher quality video to me as well? Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Rich Sezov Peter Shin 16 Years Ago Hey Peter, Okay, I uploaded it to my document library: http://www.liferay.com/c/document_library/get_file?p_l_id=745620&folderId=772303&name=DLFE-531.zipTo play this file in Windows (after you unzip it of course), you will need codecs for Windows Media Player which can be found here: http://www.illiminable.com/ogg/I uploaded this one because: a) It's closest to the original (i.e., rendered directly from Cinelerra)b) It's the smallest file I've been able to createc) It's in an open source format that is playable anywhere, and the codecs for Windows are easy to install. I composed the songs myself in 1995. They are Scream Tracker MODs, which I exported to regular sound files to play in the background. Enjoy! --Rich Please sign in to reply. Reply as...
