All of the software issues have been solved, including OSS -> ALSA integration so this project is now about to move from "proof of concept" to first "production prototype" for lack of a better word.]]> http://moose.ca/in-vehicle-navigation-and-entertainment-computer-project/feed/ 3 Simplifing sorting of images with jhead http://moose.ca/simplifing-sorting-of-images-with-jhead/ http://moose.ca/simplifing-sorting-of-images-with-jhead/#comments Mon, 08 Aug 2005 03:07:05 +0000 Christopher
The old method of sorting our images for upload into Gallery was beginning to really slow us down. iPhoto is not an integral part of my archival method and as such it was wasted CPU cycles and overkill to manipulate the files just for upload into the main archive.]]> http://moose.ca/simplifing-sorting-of-images-with-jhead/feed/ 0 Navigation Computer Update http://moose.ca/navigation-computer-update/ http://moose.ca/navigation-computer-update/#comments Wed, 19 Jan 2005 03:26:26 +0000 Christopher http://moose.ca/navigation-computer-update/feed/ 1 New Nav Computer Snap Shot http://moose.ca/new-nav-computer-snap-shot/ http://moose.ca/new-nav-computer-snap-shot/#comments Thu, 11 Nov 2004 02:48:55 +0000 Christopher
Main difference from the last version is the reduction of clutter and little used features as well as an integrated mute/mixer via mutli-modal fly-out buttons (not demonstrated). The nice thing about this way of doing the mixer is that it will be available from any screen as a fly out on top of the current screen. Semantics I suppose, but I like it. I have a better way to represent the mixer setup in mind - at least I think it will be better. Need to draw it and see. ]]> http://moose.ca/new-nav-computer-snap-shot/feed/ 1 jhead: Underated Image Manipulation Tool http://moose.ca/jhead-underated-image-manipulation-tool/ http://moose.ca/jhead-underated-image-manipulation-tool/#comments Sat, 09 Oct 2004 18:26:34 +0000 Christopher
I've got approximately 1150 images that I need to re-input into gallery. I had been lazy the last 9 months or so and as a result all my images that had not been categorized had lost their correct file system time stamp. Moved from temp folder to temp folder, pulled off CD media (old stuff), etc., etc. I was going to rely on using iPhoto to categorize the files by date. I had noticed that iPhoto imports stuff using a date structure so it should be just a matter of doing the import and then use the galleryadd.pl script to import the directories into the family album web site.]]> http://moose.ca/jhead-underated-image-manipulation-tool/feed/ 0 Jeep Navigation System http://moose.ca/jeep-navigation-system/ http://moose.ca/jeep-navigation-system/#comments Thu, 12 Aug 2004 04:19:17 +0000 Christopher
