Récupération d’informations sur le site maître à l’installation d’une instance
26 novembre 2010, parUtilité
Sur le site principal, une instance de mutualisation est définie par plusieurs choses : Les données dans la table spip_mutus ; Son logo ; Son auteur principal (id_admin dans la table spip_mutus correspondant à un id_auteur de la table spip_auteurs)qui sera le seul à pouvoir créer définitivement l’instance de mutualisation ;
Il peut donc être tout à fait judicieux de vouloir récupérer certaines de ces informations afin de compléter l’installation d’une instance pour, par exemple : récupérer le (...) -

Trolls in trouble
6 juin 2013, par Mans — Law and libertyLife as a patent troll is hopefully set to get more difficult. In a memo describing patent trolls as a “drain on the American economy,” the White House this week outlined a number of steps it is taking to stem this evil tide. Chiming in, the Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (where patent cases are heard) in a New York Times op-ed laments the toll patent trolling is taking on the industry, and urges judges to use powers already at their disposal to make the practice less attractive. However, while certainly a step in the right direction, these measures all fail to address the more fundamental properties of the patent system allowing trolls to exist in the first place.
System and method for patent trolling
Most patent trolling operations comprise the same basic elements :
- One or more patents with broad claims.
- The patents of (1) acquired by an otherwise non-practising entity (troll).
- The entity of (2) filing numerous lawsuits alleging infringement of the patents of (1).
- The lawsuits of (3) targeting end users or retailers.
- The lawsuits of (3) listing as plaintiffs difficult to trace shell companies.
The recent legislative actions all take aim at the latter entries in this list. In so doing, they will no doubt cripple the trolls, but the trolls will remain alive, ready to resume their wicked ways once a new loophole is found in the system.
To kill a patent troll
As Judge Rader and his co-authors point out in the New York Times, “the problem stems largely from the fact that, [...] trolls have an important strategic advantage over their adversaries : they don’t make anything.” This is the heart of the troll, and this is where the blow should be struck. Our weapon shall be the mightiest judicial sword of all, the Constitution.
The United States Constitution contains (in Article I, Section 8) the foundation for the patent system (emphasis mine) :
The Congress shall have Power [...] To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.
Patent trolls are typically not inventors. They are merely hoarders of other people’s discarded inventions, and that allowing others to reap the benefits of an inventor’s work would somehow promote progress should be a tough argument. Indeed, it is the dissociation between investment and reward which has allowed the patent trolls to rise and prosper.
In light of the above, the solution to the troll menace is actually strikingly simple : make patents non-transferable.
Having the inventor retain the rights to his or her inventions (works for hire still being recognised), would render the establishment of non-practising entities, which most trolls are, virtually impossible. The original purpose of patents, to protect the investment of inventors, would remain unaffected, if not strengthened, by such a change.

FFMpeg C++ encoder fails with hardware acceleration quick sync intel
28 août 2022, par tealsI am trying to debug an issue I have with a simple C++ encoder using FFMmpeg. The following code below works correctly on these other hardware acceleration systems/platforms :


- 

- Mac/VideoToolbox,
- Cuda/NVEnc
- Raspberry pi/h264_v4l2m2m.








It fails on intel quick sync at
avcodec_open2. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04. I built FFMpeg from source with the Intel Media SDK installed and configured. I verified that the QuickSync install works. I also have a corresponding decoder implementation that works correctly using intel quick sync. So I know everything properly installed. I am also running this on an 11th Gen Intel CPU.

[hevc_qsv @ 0x564b0d34f0c0] Low power mode is unsupported (This sometimes shows up)
[hevc_qsv @ 0x563691234000] some encoding parameters are not supported by the QSV runtime. Please double check the input parameters.
Error initializing output stream 0:0 -- Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height


This is the only error that I get and I haven't found any helpful resources. I tried playing around with different parameters but nothing seems to work. Any help or insight would be extremely helpful.
