insightful.

(LFCS and LFCE) bundles ...

https://cloud.email.thelinuxfoundation.org/linuxtraining

Sale ends Feb 18th.

Re: [GTALUG] Miracast

[Alex Volkov via talk]

Yes. I agree.

I much prefer using HDMI cables as I'm able to capture the slides -- and 
it is much easier to synchronize slides and camera feed in this way.


Maybe we can bring a usb key and a raspberry pi as a backup option, but 
that entails bringing yet another thing to the meeting.


We should discuss this issue at the executive meeting.

Alex.

That's very strange.

I did my January presentation using my phone via Miracast, and I 
haven't had a version upgrade lately; my
OnePlus 5 was on version 9 / Pi  throughout.  (Note that after the 
meeting, someone, probably Ivan,
rebooted the monitor, at which point I suddenly *was* projecting my 
phone screen to the monitor.

That wasn't an utter surprise; I was trying to do so ;-)! )

It seems as though we need some alternative handling, as we're running 
into the trouble that
people are bringing laptops with newly discovered interfaces (I think 
this time it was USB-C)

for which we had no adaptor available.

I'm not quite sure what the best alternative is; lurking in my head is 
to pull out a ChromeCast
(that speaks HDMI, and can be plugged into a USB port), in the hopes 
that we could push
slides over to this.   Supposedly works...  



Alternately, maybe a Raspberry Pi could do an apropos job, but it 
needs to NOT need a lot of setup

to be "A/V-friendly."

I now remember the email. When I was looking for the email though - - - I
used lightening talk in my search terms and that 'term' isn't included anywhere
in the email.

For me - - - - the announcement as it was made is great. Maybe adding something
like 'lightening talk videos' or some such would make it easier to
search for that
particular email. The title of the talk is useful but as at least I am
thinking of the various
talks as GTALug lightening talk topic/blah/blah finding what I'm
looking for just wasn't
happening.

Thanking you for your assistance
