Multimedia Previewer
,----[ Quote ]
| I love niche programs, especially in the
| area of multimedia. If you're like me, you
| probably have a folder full of MP3s and
| Oggs collected from the last ten years
| that's reached the point where you've
| forgotten half the files in there. This
| month, I stumbled upon the charming little
| command-line program, audiopreview.

The Linux iLife? Lombard & Fillmore certainly feel like itâ
,----[ Quote ]
| Fillmore provides basic multi-track
| recording/editing functionality via the
| use of the GStreamer and Gnonlin media
| libraries.
|
| For a lightweight and purpose-driven
| application the first release is
| acceptable. It doesnât have the fine-tuned
| controls of fellow audio-editor âJokosherâ
| but no-one was expecting it so. So far the
| features consist of the following: -
|
| * Record audio from a microphone or
| other audio input device (records in
| single mono channel)
| * Arrange and edit audio clips on a
| timeline
| * Create as many new tracks as you
| need
| * Copy, paste, split, trim clips
| * Adjust panning and volume
| * User-specified time signature and
| tempo
| * Configurable metronome; set tempo,
| volume and playback during recording
| * Ability to hide library pane

Easy Linux backups with Lucky Backup
,----[ Quote ]
| We would all like to think that, since we
| are using Linux, we will never really need
| a backup of our data. Now, let's look at
| this realistically. Even if your OS is
| 100% rock solid, with nary a nanosecond of
| downtime, that hardware running that OS
| can not possibly give 100% forever. Add to
| that the irresistible urge to upgrade
| hardware and you have the serious makings
| for the need to back up.
