- Stream Live HDTV with VLC
Filed under: Multimedia, Video, How-tos
Somebody we know around these parts has posted a nice tutorial over at MacDevCenter on how to use VLC to stream live HDTV from an EyeTV compatible tuner to other Macs around your house. This way if you set up a Mac media center computer to record HDTV, you can shoot that content to other Macs (or even, perish the thought, Windows PCs, since VLC is cross-platform).
The same basic methodology should allow you to stream already downloaded/recorded programs as well. Since VLC has a web-based remote, you can even control it from the client computer as well. There are many good non-obvious tips here, particularly Erica's methodology for exposing the MPEG transport stream, so if you're interested in a Mac based HDTV system, check it out.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Software, Freeware, Open Source, Developer
Mono is an interesting Open Source Project, sponsored by Novell, that "provides the necessary software to develop and run .NET client and server applications on Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, Windows, and Unix." The most recent version, 1.2.3, adds support for a Visual Basic 8.0 compiler meaning that Visual Basic applications can now be run on the Mac. The Mono project has an active Mac community already, and if you're looking to investigate you might start with this Xcode tutorial. Now, of course, the question of whether it's a good thing that it is easy to compile a VB application for the Mac is something else entirely. Nonetheless, Mono now seems to represent an inexpensive alternative to REALbasic for writing cross-platform applications.

Filed under: iPod Family, Software, Freeware, iTunes
Adam Pash over at lifehacker has a great post up on managing your iPod without iTunes. The post focuses on cross-platform tools for adding music and video to your iPod from practically any computer, the most interesting of which is Floola. Floola has a bunch of features, allowing you to copy music (in both directions), manage playlists, podcasts, etc. Best of all, Floola can be installed on your iPod (you must enable disk usage to run Floola), so you can run it on any computer you happen to have access to (including, if you are rather unfortunate, a Windows PC) directly from the iPod. In addition to Floola, Adam also mentions running myPodder, again directly from your iPod, to manage your podcast subscriptions, as well as some Windows specific tools. I'm not quite ready to give up iTunes just yet, but if you carry an iPod back and forth between two computers, as I do, Adam definitely has some good suggestions.
Floola is a free download, but donations are requested. myPodder is also a free download, but you must register with podcastready in order to use it.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:
