Audio Processing Tips for ffmpeg

MJ Ray - Wednesday 25.08.10, 06:01am

I did some sound file mangling earlier this week. I’ve been using the Bambuser app for Symbian recently to capture some recordings. If you tell their site your User-Agent is a mobile browser, it’ll work OK with free software – icky but better than many video services today.

Debian Project Leader Election Campaign Round-up

MJ Ray - Thursday 15.04.10, 07:43am

I’ve been AWOL for most of the debian project leader election campaigns this year, but I still want to vote, so I’ve been dredging the emails on the last day. Maybe someone still has to vote and reads this, or maybe it’ll help someone to interpret the result.
