You want so store a video on your iPhone but you are not able to do it because the video is in the wrong format? You can do it with a free video converter called SUPER. It’s a GUI which uses FFmpeg, MEncoder, MPlayer, 264, mppenc, ffmpegtheora and the theoravorbis RealProducer. All these tools are open source.
To convert your video files for your iPhone simple use “Apple – iPod / iPone (mp4)” as output container, select the input file and start the convert process. Output files are default stored in C:\Program Files\eRightSoft\Super\OutPut. It’s also possible to convert .FLV files to the iPhone format.
Once the file is converted drag and drop it into iTunes and sync your iPhone. I think this sync process is not a very intuitive thing in iTunes…
Nice free and easy to use tool!
Here is a screen shot of the following video grabbed from the Internet using the RealPlayer:
Received from a friend while he was on a holiday trip in Toronto. A Linuxcaffe pretty cool I think. Nowadays Linux seems to be everywhere! Thank you Bogi for this nice shot.
Nowadays there are several virtualization products like VMWare and Virtual PC available. Searching the Internet I came across coLinux and andLinux. This free and open source tools allow you to run Linux natively on your Windows PC.
coLinux is the base – a port of the Linux kernel which allows you to run Linux cooperatively on your Windows PC. andLinux is a complete Ubuntu Linux system which uses coLinux, Xming as X server and PulseAudio as sound server.
I’ve tried andLinux on my Windows XP notebook, installation was easy. Quite nice if you also want to have Linux running on your PC without purchasing other products. You can start Linux applications and they appear like a regular Windows application on your desktop.
andLinux offers some more features:
Access from Linux applications to Windows filesystem
Quick start of Linux applications from Quicklaunch bar
