SMPlayer Review - One of the Most Powerful Video Players for Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| Since it uses Qt 4, integration with KDE 4.x is very good and the interface 
| blends smoothly in the environment. As for speed, comparing to players for 
| KDE 3 like Kaffeine, it is a little slower (I'm referring to the interface's 
| response only), but I hope this will get fixed as the time passes though.   
| 
| To sum it up, SMPlayer is a very impressing application and one of the most 
| powerful video players for Linux, together with Kaffeine or VLC.

Audio/Visual Synthesis For Linux: The New Art, Part 1

,----[ Quote ]
| As mentioned above, my focus has been on software intended for creative 
| artists, with an emphasis on realtime or near-realtime processing 
| capabilities. I have purposefully ignored Cinelerra, Blender, and other 
| similar applications that are better understood as video sequence editors and 
| compositors, though they share some of the tools and techniques of the 
| software I'll profile in the next part of this article. Until then, hasta la 
| vista (y la sonida) !

Give Me 3 Synths, Part 2

,----[ Quote ]
| Minicomputer is an excellent synth with some great possibilities. While its
| author emphasizes its effectiveness in hardcore sound styles I found it to be
| an excellent straightforward subtractive synth with some uncommon filtering
| capabilities.
