Re: [Haifux] Small question
As I understand, IGLU will get a new server with a huge HD soon, accesible worldwide. If this does not work out, then I think an even limited web access is compulsory, since it will allow people to get the information without being dependant on a single person (and bothering him), or being dependent on physical access. After all, most of the requests so far for recorded lectures were from people who live relatively far. -- Haifa Linux Club Mailing List (http://www.haifux.org) To unsub send an empty message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Latest version of mplayer play RM and QT files under x86 GNU/Linux, although open codecs are preferred, as you are not limited to x86 architecture and proprietary code.

Re: [Haifux] Small question
Hi Publishing the lectures is very good idea.

An ogg version of the audio would be very useful to those without broadband connections.

I'm no expert but I've downloaded realmedia lectures from http://www.aduni.org/courses/java/ at around 50-100MB. I admit knowing nothing about video or audio codecs. > I see www.haifux.org has nothing close the amount of diskspace > needed to host such a project. Maybe you could release audio only .ogg or .mp3 versions on www.haifux.org. Releasing audio only versions with a tarball of that lecture's slides could be a low bandwidth alternative. The people at http://technetcast.ddj.com/ do this often, resulting in 3-10MB mp3 files.

If Guy Edri agrees to burn the CDs, I see no problem. Guy, did you encode all lectures already to the PC? If not, I suggest creating VCDs which are playable on most DVD players.
