• Multimedia Exploration Journal : The Past Doesn’t Die

  12 juillet 2011, par Multimedia Mike — Game Hacking

  New haul of games, new (old) multimedia formats.

  Lords of Midnight
  Check out the box copy scan for Lords of Midnight in MobyGames. In particular, I’d like to call your attention to this little blurb :

  
  
  

  Ahem, "Journey through an immense world — the equivalent of 8 CD-ROMs." Yet, when I procured the game, it only came on a single CD-ROM. It’s definitely a CD-ROM (says so on the disc) and, coming from 1995, certainly predates the earliest DVD-ROMs (which can easily store 8 CD-ROMs on a disc). Thus, I wanted to jump in a see if they were using some phenomenal compression in order to squeeze so much info into 600 or so megabytes.

  I was surprised to see the contents of the disc clocking in at just under 40 megabytes. An intro movie and an outro movie account for 75% of that. Format ? None other than that curious ASCII anomaly, ARMovie/RPL with Escape 122 codec data.

  Cyclemania

  
  
  

  Cyclemania is one of those FMV backdrop action games, but with a motorcycle theme. I had a good feeling I would find some odd multimedia artifacts here and the game didn’t disappoint. The videos are apparently handled using 3-4 discrete files per animation. I’ve documented my cursory guesses and linked some samples at the new MultimediaWiki page.

  Interplay ACMP
  This is unrelated to this particular acquistion, but I was contacted today about audio files harvested from the 1993 DOS game Star Trek : Judgment Rites. The files begin with the ASCII signature "Interplay ACMP Data". This reminds me of Interplay MVE files which begin with the similar string "Interplay MVE File". My theory is that these files use the ACOMP compression format, though I’m still trying to make it fit.

  Wiki and samples are available as usual if you’d like to add your own research.

• It’s January 28th : Let’s celebrate Data Privacy !

  29 janvier 2018, par Matomo Core Team

  It is a special Sunday here for us at Matomo, as today is international Data Privacy Day. The day was created in 2007 to raise awareness of the importance of data privacy for people and businesses worldwide.

  

  What is data privacy about ?

  Personal data refers to any data which is collected and can be linked to an individual human being such as phone records, credit card transactions, GPS position, IP addresses, browsing history… So basically, personal data refers to your identity online. That is why you should be highly concerned about sending your personal data (or your customers’ personal data) away. It is important to be aware of who is collecting the information and how it is being used.

  What big changes are happening in 2018 ?

  New privacy regulations GDPR comes into play next May 2018 : GDPR will bring about some changes (in the right direction) by making people and businesses aware of what data privacy means, and what they should be doing to protect their customers’ privacy. With these new regulations, data privacy awareness is reaching a critical milestone this year.

  How can I protect my privacy ?

  Here are a few tips to protect your privacy :

  • Educate yourself on the importance of privacy : the more informed you are the better.
  • Use open source solutions where you can keep full control of your own data (such as NextCloud instead of Dropbox and of course Matomo instead of Google Analytics),
  • Experiment with different online services to protect your data privacy, for example using an alternative search engine (such as DuckDuckGo instead of Google) or an alternative email provider (such as ProtonMail).

  What’s coming next for Matomo and Privacy ?

  Here at Matomo, we are building the leading decentralised open web analytics platform. We’re currently working on new sets of privacy features to make compliance with GDPR a breeze. Stay tuned here to be notified when we launch the new privacy compliance tools !
