• Create a video in an Azure virtual machine

  23 février 2019, par tzerb

  I have a web application that moves an icon between two points on a map using the google maps api. I wanted to make a video of the resultant activity so I wrote a WPF application to display the app in a browser control. I was able to use FFMPEG to make the video on my local computer. I’d like to move this whole thing to Azure so I created a virtual machine and ran my WPF app using the scheduler. The app doesn’t work because the there is no user and WPF doesn’t display a UI. It makes sense but I can’t seem to get around it by logging in a real user.

  Am I on the right track ? Is there a better way of doing this ?

• Can I call multiple FFMPEG processes on a multi-core LAMP machine from PHP ?

  12 décembre 2012, par undefined

  I am using PHP to call an FFMPEG command using exec(). The script that initiates this command is called from another PHP script using

  proc_close(proc_open('php /phpdirectory/process.php &', array(), $foo));

  This works great. The ffmpeg command is called and runs 'in the background' leaving the first script to return to the user and in this case carry on uploading files. What if I am using a machine with multiple cores ? How would I go about optimizing things so that I could call an ffmpeg process for each core ? Or will a multicore machine process split the work between cores anyway and get through a single process faster ?

  Anyone ?

• Bye Bye FATE Machine

  4 septembre 2010, par Multimedia Mike — FATE Server

  This is the computer that performed the lion’s share of FATE cycles for the past 1.5 years before Mans put a new continuous integration system into service. I’ve now decided to let the machine go. I can’t get over how odd this feels since this thing is technically the best machine I own.

  
  
  

  It’s a small form factor Shuttle PC (SD37P2 v2) ; Core 2 Duo 2.13 GHz ; 2 GB RAM ; 400 GB SATA HD ; equipped with the only consistently functional optical drive in my house (uh oh). I used it as my primary desktop from March 2007 – November 2008, at which point I repurposed it for FATE cycles.

  As mentioned, the craziest part is that this is technically the best computer in my house. My new EeePC 1201PN isn’t at quite the same level ; my old EeePC can’t touch it, of course ; the Mac Mini has a little more RAM but doesn’t stack up in nearly all other areas. But the Shuttle just isn’t seeing that much use since the usurpation. I had it running automated backup duty for multimedia.cx but that’s easy enough to move to another, lower-powered system.

  Maybe the prognosticators are correct and the PC industry has matured to the point where raw computing power simply doesn’t matter anymore. I fancy myself as someone who knows how to put CPU power to work but even I don’t know what to do with the computing capacity I purchased over 3 years ago.

  Where will the Shuttle go ? A good home, I trust– I know a family that just arrived in the country and could use a computer.
