You want to create dvd from rows a video or a slideshow with graphical and sonorous effects? You have wish of impreziosire yours dvd with an elegant menu, even animated and with the audio base? You sure have need of a program of authoring and, on ours loved pinguino, to my opinion, nothing is better than ManDvd. This application, originally written for kde from Gibault Stéphane (member of kde-apps) works to the large one also on Ubuntu, concurs of:

• to import video;
• to cut to parts of the video and applicarvi special effects;
• to create diaporama;
• to import the subtitles them;
• to insert buttons and background (also animated);
• to create menu, also animated and with audio base;
• to create of the chapters them;
• to record of the DVD on the fly or with K3B

The following line installs the dependencies to satisfy:
I sudo apt-get install mencoder transcode mjpegtools imagemagick netpbm dvdauthor blades xine-ui mkisofs mplayer.

ManDvd, instead, must be unloaded from getdeb and installed calmly with the double quantity click on the package deb. The screenshots that they follow they document the procedure for the construction of a simple Dvd from rows MPEG:

Not found it simple and complete?

Amarok 2 grows well and of equal step the applications and the scripts grow also that rotate around this wonderful one player.

 

Little weeks ago have been written two absolutely interesting scripts, SeeqPod that concur to try any type of music on the web and to listen to it in Amarok, and LibriVox that, integrating exactly the service of LibriVox, offers audiolibri releasable liberations.
The only difficulty is that the two scripts have been scriti in Ruby and are necessary the porting in QtScript are in order to reduce ill problem of the dependencies that in order to maintain the compatibility with Windows and Mac.
We will wait for!

A 0,6 splendid one has been released Songbird player of which they are occupied in passed to me if also in its version of development. The procedures of installation and configuration are remained almost unchanged, for which for they I send back you to mine post “the war of the player “, while this is the page for the Release Notes and here you can carry out the download of the archives. For the use enough to smanettare a little, it is truly intuitivo.

It would appeal to you to listen to the sound of the guitar of Brian May without feel the voice of Freddie Mercury in the songs of the Queen? Today it is possible!
A group of Korean ingengeri has put to point a new format of music types them that it separates the controls on the audio volume for every musical instrument.  MT9, this the extension of the new format, has as tito it a “pomposo” Music 2,0 trades them and, to feel the inventors, is ready to replace “de facto” Mp3 as standard for music types them. The distintiva characteristic of the MT9 is that it has an audio equalizzatore to six channels dedicated to the voice, the chorus, to the pianoforte, to the guitar, the base and the drum. As an example, if a customer extinguishes the channel voice will have a base for karaoke, or is possible to disattivare all the instruments and to concentrate itself on the voice of the main singer…
Therefore MT9 is the ideal for music of new generation because it can be used for various services and products, like as an example iPhones, PC, telephones cellular and karaoke bar. In fact already Samsung and LG have made to know of being both interested to equip their cellular ones of reader MT9 and think from the beginning to introduce them on the market of the next year.
For who it wanted to try the site is www.audizen.com, with a series of approximately 2000 egg whites in the new format.  If then the reckless one has a some familiarity with Korean it will succeed to understand something more to us.
