  • Usurper of FATE

    31 juillet 2010, par Multimedia Mike — FATE Server

    Mans sent a message to the FFmpeg-devel list today :

    A new FATE

    Mike’s FATE system has done a great job over the last few years. It
    is however beginning to prove inadequate in various ways :

    [various shortcomings already dissected at length on this very blog]

    To address the above-mentioned issues, I have been working on a
    replacement system which is now ready to be announced.

    Check it out : http://fate.ffmpeg.org/.

    Considering that he just obsoleted something I’ve poured a lot of time and energy into over the last 2.5 years, is my first reaction to this news supposed to be unbridled joy ? Hey, I’m already on record as stating that I wouldn’t mind throwing away all of FATE if there was a better alternative.

    I’m not certain but I’m pretty sure that at this point, the original FATE server is practically obsolete. Mans is already testing all of his configurations as well as the configs I test. As soon as the other FATE installations switch over to the new server, I should be able to redirect fate.multimedia.cx -> fate.ffmpeg.org, sell most of my computers, and spend more time with my family.

    Thanks, Mans !

  • Wave Goodbye ; What About VP8/WebM ?

    7 août 2010, par Multimedia Mike — Multimedia PressWatch

    Some big news in the geek community this past week came in the form of Google’s announcement that it would no longer be caring about its vaunted Wave technology. I was mildly heartbroken by this since I had honestly wanted to try Google Wave. Then I remembered why I never got a chance to try it : they made it an exclusive club at the beginning. I really did try to glean some utility out of the concept by reading documentation and watching videos and I had some ideas about how I might apply it. Then again, I try to think of a use for nearly any technology that crosses my path.

    It still struck me as odd : Why would Google claim that no one was interested in their platform when they wouldn’t give anyone a chance to try it out ? A little digging reveals that Google did open it for general use back around May 18. That date sounds familiar... oh yeah, VP8 was open sourced right around the same time. Maybe that’s why I don’t remember hearing anything about Wave at the time.

    But now I’m wondering about VP8 and WebM. How long do you think it might be before Google loses interest in these initiatives as well and reassigns their engineering resources ? Fortunately, if they did do that, the technology would live on thanks to the efforts of FFmpeg developers. A multimedia format has a far more clear-cut use case than Google Wave.

  • 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.
