• Leading Google Analytics alternative, Matomo, parodies Christopher Nolan blockbuster ahead of the UA sunset

  4 juillet 2023, par Erin — Press Releases

  Wellington, New Zealand, 4 July 2023 : In the world of online data, Google Analytics has long reigned supreme. Its dominance has been unquestioned, leaving website owners with little choice but to rely on the tech giant for their data insights. However, a new dawn in web analytics is upon us, and Matomo, the leading alternative to Google Analytics, is seizing a unique opportunity to position itself as the go-to provider. In a bold move, Matomo has launched a parody trailer, “Googleheimer,” humorously taking a satirical swipe at Google in the style of the upcoming Oppenheimer biopic by Christopher Nolan.

  Capitalising on a time-bound decision

  With an important decision looming for marketers and web specialists who need to switch analytics providers by July 1st, Matomo has found the perfect window to capture their attention.

  The urgency of the situation, combined with the high intent to switch providers, sets the stage for Matomo to establish itself as the leading alternative analytics platform of choice.

  Matomo’s parody trailer addresses the frustrations of GA4 head-on by highlighting the issues and the uncertainties caused by the sunset of Universal Analytics in humorous satire with lines such as :

  “But we’re keeping everyone’s data, right ? Right ?? …RIGHT ?!”

  Riding on the coat tails of this summer’s anticipated blockbuster from Christopher Nolan, Matomo openly points at the downsides of GA4, and reflects many frustrated marketers pain points in an entertaining way. Beneath the comedic and satirical tone lies the message that users have choices, and no longer need to surrender to the behemoth incumbent.

  Matomo was founded to challenge the status quo and provide a solution for those who believe in privacy and in ethical analytics, and who prefer that their customer data not be concentrated in the hands of just a few corporations.

  Watch the full trailer here.

  More on Google Analytics changes



  A new dawn in web analytics is upon us, and Matomo – the leading alternative to Google Analytics – is here for it. After 20 years, Google is blowing up Universal Analytics (or GA3) – and taking your data with it. Inspired by Christopher Nolan’s upcoming biopic about physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer and the making of his atomic bomb (also known as “The Manhattan Project”), this parody trailer openly points to Google and draws the comparison in humorous satire. GA4 comes with a new set of metrics, setups and reports that change how you analyse your data.

• How to obtain time markers for video splitting using python/OpenCV

  10 novembre 2018, par Bleddyn Raw-Rees

  I’m working on my MSc project which is researching automated deletion of low value content in digital file stores. I’m specifically looking at the sort of long shots that often occur in natural history filming whereby a static camera is left rolling in order to capture the rare snow leopard or whatever. These shots may only have some 60s of useful content with perhaps several hours of worthless content either side.

  As a first step I have a simple motion detection program from Adrian Rosebrock’s tutorial [http://www.pyimagesearch.com/2015/05/25/basic-motion-detection-and-tracking-with-python-and-opencv/#comment-393376]. Next I intend to use FFMPEG to split the video.

  What I would like help with is how to get in and out points based on the first and last points that motion is detected in the video.

  Here is the code should you wish to see it...

  # import the necessary packages
  
  import argparse
  
  import datetime
  
  import imutils
  
  import time
  
  import cv2
  
  
  
  # construct the argument parser and parse the arguments
  
  ap = argparse.ArgumentParser()
  
  ap.add_argument("-v", "--video", help="path to the video file")
  
  ap.add_argument("-a", "--min-area", type=int, default=500, help="minimum area size")
  
  args = vars(ap.parse_args())
  
  
  
  # if the video argument is None, then we are reading from webcam
  
  if args.get("video", None) is None:
  
  camera = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
  
  time.sleep(0.25)
  
  
  
  # otherwise, we are reading from a video file
  
  else:
  
      camera = cv2.VideoCapture(args["video"])
  
  
  
  # initialize the first frame in the video stream
  
  firstFrame = None
  
  
  
  # loop over the frames of the video
  
  while True:
  
      # grab the current frame and initialize the occupied/unoccupied
  
      # text
  
      (grabbed, frame) = camera.read()
  
      text = "Unoccupied"
  
  
  
      # if the frame could not be grabbed, then we have reached the end
  
      # of the video
  
      if not grabbed:
  
          break
  
  
  
      # resize the frame, convert it to grayscale, and blur it
  
      frame = imutils.resize(frame, width=500)
  
      gray = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2GRAY)
  
      gray = cv2.GaussianBlur(gray, (21, 21), 0)
  
  
  
      # if the first frame is None, initialize it
  
      if firstFrame is None:
  
          firstFrame = gray
  
          continue
  
  
  
      # compute the absolute difference between the current frame and
  
      # first frame
  
      frameDelta = cv2.absdiff(firstFrame, gray)
  
      thresh = cv2.threshold(frameDelta, 25, 255, cv2.THRESH_BINARY)[1]
  
  
  
      # dilate the thresholded image to fill in holes, then find contours
  
      # on thresholded image
  
      thresh = cv2.dilate(thresh, None, iterations=2)
  
      (_, cnts, _) = cv2.findContours(thresh.copy(), cv2.RETR_EXTERNAL, cv2.CHAIN_APPROX_SIMPLE)
  
  
  
      # loop over the contours
  
      for c in cnts:
  
          # if the contour is too small, ignore it
  
          if cv2.contourArea(c) < args["min_area"]:
  
              continue
  
  
  
          # compute the bounding box for the contour, draw it on the frame,
  
          # and update the text
  
          (x, y, w, h) = cv2.boundingRect(c)
  
          cv2.rectangle(frame, (x, y), (x + w, y + h), (0, 255, 0), 2)
  
          text = "Occupied"
  
  
  
      # draw the text and timestamp on the frame
  
      cv2.putText(frame, "Room Status: {}".format(text), (10, 20),
  
          cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 0.5, (0, 0, 255), 2)
  
      cv2.putText(frame, datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%A %d %B %Y %I:%M:%S%p"),
  
          (10, frame.shape[0] - 10), cv2.FONT_HERSHEY_SIMPLEX, 0.35, (0, 0, 255), 1)
  
  
  
      # show the frame and record if the user presses a key
  
      cv2.imshow("Security Feed", frame)
  
      cv2.imshow("Thresh", thresh)

      key = cv2.waitKey(1) & 0xFF

• ffmpeg arguments for youtube upload [duplicate]

  9 mars, par Hoopes

  I'm currently having an issue in my ios app where youtube sharing of a video created by ffmpeg seems broken. I am starting with an audio file, and an image that I will use as the static background of the video.

  


  ffmpeg -y 
-i "/path/to/audio.m4a" 
-r 24 
-i "/path/to/background.png" 
-codec:a aac_at 
-codec:v h264_videotoolbox 
-brand mp42 
-vf "scale=1080:1080" 
-vf "scale=out_color_matrix=bt709" 
-color_primaries bt709 
-color_trc bt709 
-colorspace bt709 
-movflags +faststart 
"output.mp4"


  


  Note that since i'm on an ios device, i am using h264_videotoolbox, which uses the apple hardware to help encode it.

  


  When I use the regular ios share screen, and share to something like slack, the video seems to work fine. However, when I try to share to youtube via the same share screen, it looks like it can't detect the duration of the video :

  


  

  


  Another thing to note is that when i download the file, and upload it to youtube via regular web browser, it seems to be fine - which somewhat points to it not being ffmpeg related, but it shares fine to other apps.

  


  I'm using ffmpeg version 5.1.2
