Dear All
I'm really pleased to announce the official release (some days ago) of Galicaster v1.2 capture agent software. Galicaster based capture agents (CAs) can work as improved Matterhorn CAs. They can register as a standard MH-CA on a standard MH-Core, thus being able to receive scheduled recordings and ingest the resulting mediapackages automatically. Galicaster provides a touch-screen ready, user interface (UI) giving professors: Start, stop, pause funcionalities, Alarm on bad or no audio, Recording "red light" signal, VGA and Video feedback, etc... Galicaster also provides a Media Manager UI where you can play, ingest or re-ingest recordings and, as a new feature in this release, export dual-stream recordings as a single-stream (Side by Side) video. Galicaster SW is free (for non commercial use) and open under a Creative Commons license. More info here: www.galicaster.org Main Galicaster v1.2 new features and improvements: We've adapted Galicaster to run on Ubuntu 12.04 and take advantage on the upgrades of the operative system. This way we've improved the Blackmagic cards plug-in to support multiple devices and audio recording. Galicaster is now available as Debian .deb package for easier installation. We've included firewire (DV) and NCast frame grabbers among our officially supported cards and formats. Also we've made available audio and video mock sources for testing purposes. Input devices configurations in now based on "input profiles". Switching from one configuration to another is now really easy On the media management side, we've worked on providing new and enhanced export operations. Now, Galicaster is able to export recordings to zip files and/or create side-by-side (SbS) copies of the media recorded. (SbS copies are regular single-stream videos, so you can easily upload them to sites like YouTube, iTunesU, etc...). In addition we've improved the operation management system, allowing immediate and nocturne triggering of every operation. Every immediate operation is enqueued, thus resolved sequentially. Twitter: Accompanying this release, we've opened a twitter account where we will talk about our current developments, announce new releases, inform of improvements on the documentation, share experiences and any other news related to Galicaster. http://twitter.com/galicaster We are keen to hearing your feedback, suggestions, bug reports, etc... on this new release.
