Vegas Baby!

Before: No video, because no Flash, and no MP4 support


After: Video, through Totem's Vegas plugin

Totem's new Vegas browser plugin provides you with a way to watch Flash based videos, without using Flash, using libquvi's growing collection of supported sites.

Code is available from GNOME git this instant. Be sure to pass --enable-vegas-plugin=yes to compile the plugin.

GUADEC vids

Before I'm leaving for France tomorrow, just wanted to let you know that, after Thomas uploaded the GUADEC 2007 videos to the FTP, I uploaded them to Google Video, the OGG-friendly video site using their automated upload tool. Thanks to IcedTea, I didn't have to go scouring the net for random Java bits.


Watch my fave video and follow the "same user" links on there to see the GUADEC vids.

Time for an update

And you thought that was a blog update. But no!
Really, I would need to update my website. I've already moved my blog to a less shabby place, on blogspot. Some explanations needed about the website. I built it upon some "Slashcode" from back in the days (around 2000), in PHP, with no regards for possible upgrade, and plenty of hacks. I moved my blog there using PHPbloxsom (or something like that) when Advogato first folded. So, cleaning up my mess, you could find:
  • WindowMaker themes, dockapps and a bunch of GNOME EWMH 1.x hint patches
  • the infamous Bobbi video ("Hi, my name's Bobbi...")
  • Plenty of patches for the rio500 utilities, including animation support, and Walk500, the tip-top song manager for your Rio500
  • An original PPC "port" of xine 0.3.7
  • graphics for the Linux.com kernel 2.4 release contest
  • Eject button support for PPC iBooks and iMacs (July 2001, and already into keyboard malarkey)
  • A kudzu patch to send D-Bus messages when new mount points are available, and the corresponding magicdev patch (gnome-volume-manager... in October 2003!)
  • a video of Chema Celorio sky-surfing
  • mentions of me having an iBook, or an iMac
  • an hiragana input method for GTK+
  • used-to-look-cool screenshots
  • the crazy SEGA Chu-Chu Rocket advert
It will all be gone soon, but the Internet Wayback Machine will keep it all for some time.

Update: I corrected Chema's name, and uploaded the video to Google Video, it should show up on the link above when Google has finished processing it...
