DimDim Free Web Conference Software
Not that long ago, I posted about a really cool free web conference software called openmeetings. It was a little harsh in terms of install, setup, and configuration. The hardest part was scaling the product in terms of networking and QOS. I planned on coming back to that product for more testing when someone tipped [...]
Western Digital TV HD Media Player
Western Digital adds another addition to the ever crowded TV media player space. Their little HD player is affordable, plays most file types, and is easy to use. What else could you ask for?
A Better Way to Find Faces
If you’ve ever watched the “Jason Bourne” series of movies, he constantly has the CIA, INTERPOL, and other organizations following his every move. One of the ways they did this was through face-recognition software which took video feed, processed it, and compared faces which appeared in the video feed against an archived database. While, in [...]
NetFlix To Keep User Profiles
OK, I don’t personally use Netflix, but I’ve heard the hoopla and buzz surrounding how simple and easy their service is to use. I was, therefore, surprised when I heard that they were going to eliminate individual user profiles “for simplicity’s sake”. User profiles, from what I understand, allow accounts with “multiple DVD check-out” privileges [...]
OpenMeetings Free Video Conferencing Software
I’ve been busy, nestled away in my testing area. Next up to bat is the excellent software OpenMeetings. Openmeetings is free video conferencing software that allows you to chat via video, to do whiteboarding, to convert documents on the fly, etc. It even allows you to share your desktop.
Linux Rocks Media
If you haven’t tried linux, you really are missing something. In the 10 years that I have tried and retried linux, it has changed immensely. I can remember not being able to load the desktop on my first go around because I had slightly non-mainstream video card. And I’m not talking too [...]
NetFlix WatchNow DRM Hack
**Previously, on the hack channel** Remember kiddos about FairUse4WM and QTFairUse? They are DRM hacks for Windows Media and iTunes that I posted about last year. It’s the cat and mouse game here. FairUse writers post their hack on the forums. iTunes and Windows Media post a patch to their [...]
MediaPortal Advanced Free Media Center
This is kind of a follow up from yesterday’s Pinnacle HDTV USB device. I know Pinnacle includes some free PVR software, but those kind of bundled PVR software packages don’t usually measure up. I’ve mentioned the commercial PVR software BeyondTV before – and I am a fan. But I thought I would [...]
Magic DVD Ripper
Picture this: Your average human being with a computer and an impressive collection of DVDs peers through his library and is suddenly discouraged. Discouraged because it is tedious to take them on a trip if he wanted to watch any. Discouraged because if he ever lost any of his DVDs, he doesn’t really have any [...]
DriveCam Watches Teen Drivers
Now here’s something that everyone can get behind. Car accidents are teens’ biggest killer. That fact alone should make every parent want to do everything they can to ensure their safety behind the wheel. I’ve heard of parents who won’t let their children drive with other teens in the car. I’ve [...]
