KatchTV is an "Internet TV" application for KDE, otherwise known as a broadcatcher.

KatchTV is an "Internet TV" application for KDE, otherwise known as a broadcatcher. It makes it easy to subscribe to "TV" channels from all over the internet in the form of podcasts, so that you can browse channels, download shows, and watch them, all from one convenient interface.

KatchTV is very similar to Democracy TV, but focuses on KDE integration, using KHTMLPart and embedded players such as kaffeine. It's much faster, and lighter on resources if you run a KDE desktop without GTK apps.

Installation is easy, as long as your distro has PyKDE, PyQt, and Kaffeine. Just untar to some directory like /usr/local, and run the KatchTV program. You can also make a symlink to that executable from a directory like /usr/local/bin, and KatchTV will work out where to find its files.

Supported features include:

* Video podcasts ("vodcasts").
* Bittorrent-based broadcatching.
* Audio podcasts.
* Multiple background downloads of media and updates of feeds, all while you watch/listen to your favourite shows.
* Manages any media you download, so that you don't lose track of your disk space.
* Built-in KHTML-based web browser, with specific customisations for this application.
* Automatically subscribes to any feeds you click on while browsing.
* Uses KDE's default embedded media players, for flexible configuration and KDE integration.
* Supports Macromedia Flash movies, if you have a suitable plugin.
* Built-in bookmarks of major vodcast/podcast sites, so you don't have to look to hard for great content.
* Stores episode details along with downloaded media to make tracking easier.
* Allows manually adding any feeds (in case some site makes it awkward to add them
* Can also read standard RSS news feeds, if you prefer not to run separate media and news aggregators.
* Feed for KatchTV updates, so you never have to miss the latest features

Requirements:

· python (2.4+ advised)
· PyKDE and PyQt
· Kaffeine
· KMPlayer
· Mozplugger

Installation:

To actually install this, the easiest way is just to move the untarred directory to some location like /usr/local/KatchTV, and then make a symlink from that directory's KatchTV executable into /usr/local/bin or your personal ~/bin directory.

So basically, from scratch, you can do:

cd /usr/local
tar xvjf /path/to/the_downloaded/KatchTVtarball.tar.bz2
ln -s /usr/local/KatchTV/KatchTV /usr/local/bin/KatchTV

Then, just run KatchTV from the command line, or make a KDE icon for it.

HOW-TO install XBMC for Linux on Ubuntu, a Step-by-Step Guide.

The following is the recommended way of installing XBMC as a standalone app for Ubuntu. This is not the most stripped down approach but it is the safest and most simplistic. Please also consider XBMC Live as an easy way to try XBMC without changing your system. For a more stripped down approach, consider the more advanced guide XBMCbuntu which starts with a minimal server install.

This guide assumes that desktop based Ubuntu (Gnome, KDE, XFCE) is installed and working and that your system meets the minimum requirements for XBMC. If you're having trouble getting to this point please visit Ubuntu Forums for help

Installing XBMC Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic or higher.

If you are using Ubuntu 9.10 or higher, you have the option of a more streamlined install. Load the terminal window and issue the following:

<span class="kw2">sudo</span> <span class="kw2">apt-get</span> <span class="kw2">install</span> python-software-properties pkg-config
<span class="kw2">sudo</span> add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc
<span class="kw2">sudo</span> <span class="kw2">apt-get</span> update
<span class="kw2">sudo</span> <span class="kw2">apt-get</span> <span class="kw2">install</span> xbmc xbmc-standalone
<span class="kw2">sudo</span> <span class="kw2">apt-get</span> update

You do not need to add the XBMC Repo nor the PPA Keys. XBMC is already installed. To have content, go to Adding the XBMC SVN Repo Installer (not to be confused with XBMC Repo below).

If you get an error with message "E: Broken package" while doing this, please go to the System menu, then Administration, then Software Sources and check the "Community-maintained open Source software (universe)" and "Software restricted by copyright or legal issues (multiverse)" checkboxes and apply the changes.

For NVidia hardware acceleration (VDPAU) in Ubuntu 10.04 install the following packages:

<span class="kw2">sudo</span> <span class="kw2">apt-get</span> <span class="kw2">install</span> libvdpau1 nvidia<span class="nu0">-185</span>-libvdpau<br /><br />

<br />

Adding the XBMC Repo.

Adding the XBMC Repo tells your system where to look for xbmc for installation and future updates

• From the Desktop, click System -> Administration -> Software Sources.
• Click the "Third Party Sofware" tab.
• Click "Add" for each of the following. For the Apt line type the following, substituting "jaunty" for your version:

deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main<br />deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/team-xbmc/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main

• Click "Close". If you see a GPG Error upon closing the window, not to worry. That will be handled in the next step.

Adding PPA Keys.

These packages are signed with a unique key for added security. Synaptic needs to know this key in order to verify the packages' authenticity.

• Click here to view the PGP key
• Select the text from the beginning of the keyblock to the end (including those lines)
• Copy that text to the clipboard (Edit -> Copy)
• Open your text editor from Applications -> Text Editor.
• Paste the key contents (Edit -> Paste)
• Save the document in your home folder as xbmc-ppa.key
• Reopen Software Sources, this time choosing the "Authentication" tab.
• Click "Import Key File" and choose the newly created xbmc-ppa.key and press OK.

You can also combine all these steps into a single command-line command:

<span class="kw2">sudo</span> <span class="kw2">apt-key</span> adv <span class="re5">--recv-keys</span> <span class="re5">--keyserver</span> keyserver.ubuntu.com 0x6d975c4791e7ee5e

Installing XBMC.

Now that the repo and key have been added, install XBMC like any other program.

• Click System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
• Click "Reload"
• Search for "xbmc"
• Mark xbmc and xbmc-standalone for installation and mark additional changes when prompted.
• Click "Apply" and agree to the changes after reading them.

XBMC is now installed and ready for use.

Adding the XBMC SVN Repo Installer.

In Ubuntu the SVN Repositories are not automatically added. You must add them manually.

• First, download the SVN Repo Installer from:
• http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/svn/packages/plugins/programs/SVN_Repo_Installer.zip
• Extract it to the ~/.xbmc/plugins/programs directory. If this directory does not exist, run XBMC one time and then exit back to Ubuntu. The directory should now exist.
• Select XBMC Media Center: Applications -> Sound & Video -> XBMC Media Center
• Scroll down to Programs.
• Select program plugins.
• Select SVN Repo Installer
• Select xbmc-addons
• Select plugins
• Choose the plugins that you want to add (i.e., videos)

Autostart XBMC (optional).

By following these instructions, your system will boot directly into XBMC rather than your desktop from now on. It is advised that you delay this step until XBMC is setup as you'd like it.

• From the desktop click System -> Administration -> Login Screen
• From the "Security" tab choose "Enable Automatic Login" and select your username.
• Click "OK" to exit.
• Logout of your system.
• From the Login screen choose "Select Session"
• Choose "XBMC" and click "Change Session"

You're finished. Next time you login you should be greeted with XBMC.

Installing Freevo in Ubuntu.

Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala and Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope.

It seems Freevo packages do work in these releases (except that I needed to add the 'freevo' user to the 'video' group to get permissions on the DVB devices, try 'sudo adduser freevo video'.)

To install, type in a command line:

sudo aptitude install freevo

If you want to install a more recent release than 1.9.0 (Karmic) or 1.8.1 (Jaunty), you should try the manual procedure described below for Hardy and Intrepid.

Initial settings asked for on installation.

There are some settings which you chose on installation, e.g. if you wish to start xserver, recordserver, webserver and rss-server on boot. To go through this again (i.e. to make changes) type this command in the terminal:

dpkg-reconfigure -p low freevo

Disabling gdm/kdm/xdm.

If you have a dedicated HTPC and you configured freevo to appear on boot, you might want to disable the regular login manager. This is configured in /etc/X11/default-display-manager; an empty file seems to do the trick.

Ubuntu 8.10 Intrepid Ibex and Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron.

As Freevo packages in Ubuntu 8.04 and 8.10 are broken, you should do a manual installation from source. This approach has the advantage that is very easy to setup several Freevo versions in the same machine, and switch between them easily.

These are the basic steps; below is an example script to save some typing.

1. Download Freevo sources from Sourceforge

   • Freevo-x.x.x.tar.gz
   • kaa-base-x.x.x.tar.gz
   • kaa-imlib2-x.x.x.tar.gz
   • kaa-metadata-x.x.x.tar.gz
2. Extract all the packages
3. Install dependencies (It would be very wise to add 'Medibuntu' repository before this step)
   • Mandatory
     • libglib2.0-dev
     • libimlib2
     • libimlib2-dev
     • libdvdread-dev
     • python-xml
     • python-pygame
     • python-twisted
     • python-dev
     • python-beautifulsoup
     • xmltv
     • lsdvd
     • aumix
     • mplayer
   • Optional packages
     • libdvdcss2
     • w32codecs
     • python-pylirc
     • lirc
     • tvtime
     • xine-ui
4. Install Freevo packages in order
   • kaa-base
   • kaa-imlib2
   • kaa-metadata
   • freevo
5. Copy configuration files in Freevo directory
   • If you are using Freevo for the first time:
     • Exec 'freevo setup' to create 'freevo.conf'
     • Copy 'local_conf.py.example' (in Freevo source directory) to 'local_conf.py' in Freevo installation directory or ~/.freevo
     • Edit and adapt 'local_conf.py'
   • If you have a working Freevo
     • Copy 'freevo.conf' and 'local_conf.py' in the new Freevo dir
     • Run the convert_config helper

To make things easier

Here is a helper script to install everything in Ubuntu. Copy and paste to 'freevo-install.sh', and make it executable

# This script unpacks Freevo sources stored in '$SRC',<br /># and installs Freevo in $FREEVO_DIR, making a symlink to '~/freevo'<br /><br />FREEVO_DIR=~/freevo-1.8.3 # The dir where Freevo is to be installed<br />SRC=~/src # The dir where sources packages are stored (the script will unpack them in this directory)<br /><br /># Mandatory dependencies<br />sudo aptitude install libglib2.0-dev libimlib2 libimlib2-dev libdvdread-dev python-xml python-pygame python-twisted python-dev python-beautifulsoup xmltv lsdvd aumix mplayer<br /><br /># 'nullmailer' is installed too due to some dependencies. You can deactivate it in '/etc/init.d'<br /><br /># Optional packages<br />sudo aptitude install libdvdcss2 w32codecs python-pylirc lirc tvtime xine-ui<br /><br />for FILE in $SRC/*.tar.gz; do<br />        tar -xvzf "$FILE" -C "$SRC"<br />done<br /><br /><br /># Install Kaa<br />cd $SRC/kaa-base*<br />python setup.py install --prefix=$FREEVO_DIR<br />export PYTHONPATH=$FREEVO_DIR/lib/python2.5/site-packages:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/oldxml<br />cd $SRC/kaa-imlib2*<br />python setup.py install --prefix=$FREEVO_DIR<br />cd $SRC/kaa-metadata*<br />python setup.py install --prefix=$FREEVO_DIR<br /><br /># Install Freevo<br />cd $SRC/freevo*<br />python setup.py install --prefix=$FREEVO_DIR<br /><br /># Should the previous command fail,<br /># add the next line to 'setup.py' below 'import sys'<br />#sys.path.append('/usr/lib/python%s/site-packages/oldxml' % sys.version[:3])<br /># and try again:<br />#python setup.py install --prefix=$FREEVO_DIR<br /><br /># Make a symlink pointing to "~/freevo"<br />rm ~/freevo<br />ln -s $FREEVO_DIR ~/freevo

Excuting Freevo

Now Freevo should work fine (provided you have a valid 'freevo.conf' and ' local_conf.py' in '~/.freevo' or '~/freevo') and you can remove ~/src and all its contents.

cd ~/freevo<br />PYTHONPATH=~/freevo/lib/python2.5/site-packages:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/oldxml bin/freevo

I've defined the following function in '.bashrc' (or '.bash_profile'):

function freevo () {<br />    pushd .<br />    cd ~/freevo<br />#    export FREEVO_STATICDIR=~/freevo/lib<br />#    export FREEVO_LOGDIR=~/freevo/log<br />#    export FREEVO_CACHEDIR=~/freevo/cache<br />    LC_ALL=es_ES.UTF-8 PYTHONPATH=~/freevo/lib/python2.5/site-packages:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/oldxml bin/freevo $@<br />    popd<br />}

Two or more Freevo versions

• Download and extract Freevo packages as described before
• Make a symlink 'freevo' pointing to the version you want to use
• Make the directories 'cache' y 'log' inside every freevo directory
• In each 'local_conf.py' set these variables as needed:
  • FREEVO_STATICDIR='~/freevo-1.8.1/lib'
  • FREEVO_LOGDIR='~/freevo-1.8.1/log'
  • FREEVO_CACHEDIR='~/freevo-1.8.1/cache'
• Run Freevo with:

cd ~/freevo<br />PYTHONPATH=~/freevo/lib/python2.5/site-packages:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/oldxml bin/freevo

If you want to use another version of Freevo, you can change the symlink or, simply, cd to that Freevo version directory and adapt PYTHONPATH in the command line as needed.

Feisty 7.04 and Gutsy 7.10

If you haven't already done so, review the restricted formats page on the ubuntu community site page on getting Ubuntu to play a wide variety of multimedia formats.

Attention! The gutsy version of Freevo 1.8.0rc2 is buggy and will not start on Ubuntu Gutsy system. To avoid this problem, install an older version. Refer yourself to this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=731013&page=2

For Feisty or Gutsy either

• Add these lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list manually, or

• Open Synaptic, go to Settings -> Repositories -> Third Party Software, and use the add button on the bottom to add each of these lines.

deb http://ubuntu.geole.info/ gutsy universe multiverse<br />deb-src http://ubuntu.geole.info/ gutsy universe multiverse

You may see a warning that the packages can't be verified. To add the GPG-Key for ubuntu.geole.info so your software packages are cryptographically checked, install the package geole-keyring by either

• opening a terminal session and typing

sudo apt-get update<br />sudo apt-get install geole-keyring

• or clicking 'Reload' in Synaptic, then use the Search button to find geole-keyring, mark it for installation and hit apply.

Now install the freevo packages by either

• apt-get install freevo

• or search for freevo in Synaptic, mark all the resulting packages for installation and hit Apply

Either way you do it, apt will find a list of dependencies and offer to install them as well.

On a stock gutsy install, ubuntu-restricted-extras, the freevo packages and all the related programs pulls in about 120 different packages overall. If you have ubuntu-restricted-extras already installed, freevo alone is about 77 packages.

As apt installs the packages it will prompt for the location of your Audio Video and Picture folders, along with a few other settings.

There are many more options and plug ins available. After installation, start looking at the configuration pages to see what's possible.

Don't forget the users mailing list archives and live for even more help.

Older Versions of Ubuntu.

For older version of Ubuntu you can download the archive and install it as in SourceInstallation. Note the large number of dependencies can make this time consuming....

64 Bit warning.

For AMD64 installations you will need to update python-pygame as there is a bug in the currently provided debian package which will cause freevo to crash on startup:

Note on older versions of Freevo.

Versions of freevo before 1.5.4 do not support python 2.4

Avida auto-adaptive genetic system for Artificial Life research and Avogadro Molecular Graphics and Modelling System.

Avida auto-adaptive genetic system for Artificial Life research.

Avida is an auto-adaptive genetic system designed primarily for use as a platform in Digital or Artificial Life research.

In lay terms, Avida is a digital world in which simple computer programs mutate and evolve.

Avida allows us to study questions and perform experiments in evolutionalry dynamics and theoretical biology that are intractable in real biological system.

In Avida, evolution acts on populations of self-replicating computer programs. These "digital organisms" experience natural selection through random mutations and resource competition. See the project website for more information and bug tracking.

Tierra simulated an evolutionary system by introducing computer programs that competed for computer resources, specifically processor (CPU) time and access to main memory. In this respect it is similar to core words but differs in that the programs being run in the simulation are able to modify themselves, and thereby evolve. Tierra's programs are artificial life organisms.

In Avida, every digital organism lives in its own protected region of memory, and is executed by its own virtual CPU. By default, other digital organisms cannot access this memory space, neither for reading nor for writing, and cannot execute code that is not in their own memory space. Whereas in Tierra the organisms effectively share and compete for one "brain", in Avida each one has its own brain.

A second major difference is that the virtual CPUs of different organisms can run at different speeds, such that one organism executes, for example, twice as many instructions in the same time interval as another organism. The speed at which a virtual CPU runs is determined by a number of factors, but most importantly, by the tasks that the organism performs: Tasks are logical computations that the organisms can carry out to reap extra CPU speed as bonus.

Using the Create Leptonica prog Project AddIn.

Before you can use my “Create Leptonica prog Project AddIn” for Visual Studio 2008 you have to install it:

1. Move vs2008\CreateLeptonicaProgProjects.AddIn and vs2008\CreateLPP.dll to your Visual Studio 2008 Addins folder (normally C:\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Addins\).

2. Restart Visual Studio 2008.

To create a Visual Studio Project for a program in the leptonlib-1.65\prog\ directory:

1. Select a file (or files) within the prog_files Solution Folder.

2. Right-click the selected file(s), and choose Create Project for Leptonica Prog program from the context menu:

   

   The following image shows the result:

   

   The popup context menu will only contain the Create Project for Leptonica Prog program choice for leptonlib.sln and only for items within the prog_files Solution Folder.

3. Right-click your new project, and choose Set as Startup Project. This makes your new project the default project for building and debugging.

4. If the program needs command line arguments, right-click the project and set Properties | Configuration Properties | Debugging | Command Arguments.

The easiest way to build all the prog\ programs is to open the prog_files\ByFilename folder. This contains all the prog programs, so just select them all and use the Addin to create Projects for them. When it’s done (it will take awhile), right-click the prog_projects Solution Folder and choose Build.

Transcode Forge utility to encode raw video audio streams.

Transcode is a suite of command line utilities for transcoding video and audio codecs, and for converting beween different container formats. Transcode can decode and encode many audio and video formats, ecc.

* MPEG-1/2
* MPEG-4(-part 3) (also DivX and XviD variants)
* Quicktime / MPEG-PS (dvd) (decode only)
* MPEG-1-layer-1/2/3 audio
* AC3 audio

A variety of video and audio pre and post-processing filters are available, including (but not limited to):

* video de-interlacing
* audio resampling
* framerate conversion
* smoothing
* cutting

Transcode can import DVDs on-the-fly, or record from Video4Linux (including V4L2 video capturing) devices.

Latest versions:

Latest Source Tarballs and CVS Access

Customized transcode on Linux-like systems.

If you want to use transcode with the modified -y ppm -F tree output filter, you'll have to download the source, patch it, build it and install it. Because transcode is under heavy development, this HOWTO describes how to build transcode from the latest CVS sources.

1. Get the sources. The latest stable releases are at Transcode Forge.
2. Get ppmtree-patch and put it in the same transcode directory
3. patch -p1 < ppmtree-patch
4. If you've never built transcode before, then you'll need to generate a configure script.
   1. The command for this is autoreconf -if
   2. If this doesn't work, you need to make sure you have a recent version of libtools as well as aclocal and automake at version 1.8 or better.
5. ./configure --enable-libv4l2 --enable-libv4lconvert --enable-libmpeg2 --enable-libmpeg2convert --enable-v4l --enable-libpostproc --enable-freetype2 --enable-lame --enable-xvid --enable-x264 --enable-ogg --enable-vorbis --enable-theora --enable-libdvdread --enable-libdv --enable-libquicktime --enable-lzo --enable-a52 --enable-faac --enable-libxml2 --enable-mjpegtools --enable-sdl --enable-imagemagick --enable-libjpeg --enable-iconv --enable-nuv
6. Take note of any error messages. These will tell you if you're missing any libraries needed to build transcode. If some of these dependencies are missing, you'll have to get and install the relevant packages. You'll need the -devel versions of the libraries on Redhat-like systems or the -dev version on Ubuntu-like systems, as well as the libraries themselves, if you simply install from rpms. Sometimes the available rpms are too old and transcode may configure, but it won't build properly. In that case, you'll need to install the missing or outdated dependencies from their sources. Run configure and see if you've fixed all the dependencies. Once configure completes without errors ...
7. make
   Take note of any errors (but not the copious warnings). If the build fails, you may have to
   1. Build a more up-to-date version of the external package on which transcode relies to eliminate the error.
   2. Get a more up-to-date version of transcode sources from CVS.
   3. Remove the offending configuration option. Transcode only has capabilities that you specifically --enable. If one is failing to build and you don't really need it, this is the easiest option.
8. sudo make install
9. Use transcode
