• Piwik 2 reaches end of life soon (December 2017), update now !

  7 décembre 2017, par Piwik Core Team — Community

  In less than three weeks, Piwik 2 will be no longer supported. This means that no further (security) updates will be released for this version. As per our Long Term Support announcement, Piwik 2.X is supported for 12 months after the initial release of Piwik 3.0.0 which was on December 18th 2016. Therefore, Piwik 2 will no longer receive any updates after December 18th 2017.

  It has been almost a year since we released Piwik 3 and we highly recommend updating to Piwik 3 ASAP. The major new release came with a new UI, performance and security improvements. If you are still on Piwik 2, the security improvements alone should be worth updating your Piwik to Piwik 3 now. We cannot recommend this enough.

  The update to Piwik 3 should be smooth, but may take a while depending on the amount of data you have.

  • If you have any problem with the update, feel free to get in touch with us, or ask in the forums.
  • If you are currently using Piwik self-hosted and would like to be upgraded, plus your Piwik managed in the official Cloud-hosted service, contact InnoCraft Cloud and they will migrate your database.

  At Piwik and InnoCraft, the company of the makers of Piwik, we have seen many thousands of Piwik installations upgraded over the past year and look forward to an exciting future for Piwik 3 and beyond !

• Electron, Chromium and ffmpeg licencing confusion [closed]

  12 mars 2021, par Iamisti

  Intro :
Recently I'm working on an electron based application that is free to use but also has subscription based services.
It came to my attention that ffmpeg is shipped with electron, which has GPL/LGPL licence.

  


  My quetion is :

  


  

  • Am I legally able to still distribute the application and be licence-compliant with ffmpeg without owning any proper licence to it ? I thought chromium dealt with the licencing on this topic since so many applications nowadays are shipped with using electron and chromium under the hood.

  


  • How do I compile/build electron to make it licence compatible (in case its not ?)

  


  


  I did a lot of reseearch and I found out the followings :

  


  


  • ffmpeg is shipped with chromium, they built their own version of ffmpeg and it seems they also have licence for it. Although that might be that they just push the responsibility down on the software developer/company who distributes their application with chromium.
Chromium licence for ffmpeg : https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/third_party/ffmpeg/+/703e920bb75053bf6b87d41d198cbbfbce3fb7ad/LICENSE

    


  


  • Apparently ffmpeg has a checklist of how to be licence compliant. Does that mean if I do all these steps, I can still distribute the application and can legally use it ? Licence checklist for ffmpeg : http://ffmpeg.org/legal.html

    


  


  • checking out some popular electron applications like Discord, Figma, Slack, etc... they ALL have ffmpeg included cause of electron when you install them. I wonder how they made it legal ? I don't see any of these checklists done on any of these popular applications.

    


  


  


  I'm know very little regarding licences, so any help would be incredibly huge help for me.

  


• How can I make windows "like" the mp4 files I create in Linux and sync with Rsync

  17 juillet 2019, par Geoff Fox

  I am a meteorologist on TV remotely from a studio I built. My control room uses a TriCaster, an amazing studio-in-a-box which runs on a Windows 7 variant. I make my weather maps myself on a Centos 7 machine — around 40,000/day.

  I don’t entirely understand the problem, but here’s a quote from someone helping me at NewTek (the TriCaster company)

  Rsync is built on a *nix based environment where all the file permissions and attributes are based on the Linux environment. There is no meaning for this in NTFS and Windows. The result is you get files that will most likely have the read-only flag set or no flag at all. Other attributes will be delivered as null. I’m sure from your own programming experience, programs don’t like null values and they generally have to be accounted for very specifically.

  And so the finely tuned TriCaster stumbles, meaning lost frames or other problems caused by my short weather animations.

  Here are some samples of the Rsync code I use

  rsync -r -t -s -v --no-p --chmod=ugo=rwX /var/www/html/output/loops/mp4/conus*.mp4 /mnt/tricaster/Clips/Import
rsync -r -t -s -v --no-p --chmod=ugo=rwX /var/www/html/output/loops/mp4/nebraska*.mp4 /mnt/tricaster/Clips/Import
rsync -r -t -s -v --no-p --chmod=ugo=rwX /var/www/html/output/loops/mp4/northernplains*.mp4 /mnt/tricaster/Clips/Import

  These are mp4 files. They are only used locally. I really don’t care what flags are checked and permissions filled as long as Windows 7 doesn’t care.

  At this point I always like to tell folks, though I do write some code my last computer class was in high school,’67-68 semester. Thanks in advance for your help.
