• 3 hidden Piwik features you likely don’t know, that will make you more productive

  17 janvier 2017, par InnoCraft — Community

  At Piwik and at InnoCraft, we always aim to make features as intuitive as possible. Having thousands of features in Piwik and having to find a balance between beginners and advanced users can sometimes be a challenge. Sometimes this even leads to building hidden features that are mainly targeted for power users. The list below shows three of them, did you know any of them yet ?

  BTW : If you don’t have Piwik yet, you can try them on our Piwik Demo.

  1. Search

  When you press the letter “f”, it will activate the search bar in the top left. Once you start typing something, it will show matching reports. Say you want to view reports about “devices” but don’t remember exactly which category it is in, simply start typing “devices” and the matching entry will show up without even having to move the mouse.

  The search bar also searches for matching websites and segments. Use the arrow up and down keys to select the entry you want and press enter to confirm the selection.

  Say you don’t remember the name of a report but you know it is listed under the category “Visitor”, then start typing the name of the category and it will show all related reports.

  2. Zen Mode

  When you press the letter “z”, it will activate the Zen Mode which lets you focus on the reports and content by removing the header and left menu. To disable the Zen Mode, simply press “z” again.

  This is especially useful in combination with the search bar mentioned above, as it enables you to quickly switch between reports, websites and segments even while menu and header are hidden.

  3. Faster period change

  Changing the displayed period is a task you likely perform quite often when analyzing reports. Usually, you would first select the period and then press the button “Apply” in the date selector. Instead, you can simply double click the name of the period and it will immediately load the selected period without having to click on the “Apply” button.

• Fix motion blur in still frames from mpeg2video

  14 mars 2017, par Bird

  I’m extracting still frames from a video using the basic code :

  ffmpeg -i video.MXF -vf fps=1 output_%04d.png  

  In some videos, this yields images that, when the camera was moving, look much blurrier than when watching the video (see example below). The still frames from when the camera was not moving look sharper (closer to how it looks in video playback).

  The video specs are : mpeg2video, yuv422p, 1280x720 (according to FFprobe).

  Is this inherent within the video coding or structure ? The video looks so nice when in motion, but even when I pause in VLC the frame goes from sharp to blurred.

  Are there any additions to my FFmpeg code that could result in sharper images ? I tried adding a yadif filter, but it made no difference (the video isn’t interlaced anyways).

  Unfortunately I can’t post a video sample online, but below is an example of a sharper image and a blurry image ; both look in focus during video playback and are about a second apart in the video (that’s the same orange sea star on the left side).

  
  

• ffmpeg problem in ubuntu (libavcodec.so)

  7 décembre 2016, par lyuba

  I run Ubuntu and try to use the ffmpeg wrapper in Java from here :
  http://code.google.com/p/javacv/

  It seems to work fine on other systems, but in Ubuntu the project crashes
  with the following mistake :
  Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError : Error looking up
  function ’avcodec_decode_video2’ : /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libavcodec.so :
  undefined symbol : avcodec_decode_video2

  ffmpeg is working great from the command line, though.

  JavaCV author recommended me to check this link :
  http://linux-tipps.blogspot.com/2009/05/pretending-package-is-installed-by.html

  Probably I’m doing something wrong, but it cannot reinstall libavcodec51
  like this.

  So the questions are :
  1. Is those solution above a good one so I should bring it to success
  somehow ?
  2. What are the other ways to solve the problem ?

  Thank you for your suggestions in advance !
