  • How to Play Your Digital Album
    How to Play Your Digital Album Step 1 – *Best if executed on a desktop or laptop computer. ▪ Download the file via the link in either your purchase receipt or in the email you receive post purchase. Example: Richard+S.+Grossman+-+Faded+Photograhs%282%29.zip Step 2 – *If Step 2 doesn’t apply to you, skip ahead to Step 3. ▪ Make sure you have iTunes, Windows Media Player or one of the other player apps in the list on page 2 of these instructions installed on your device (Virtually all Mac and Windows computers will already have at least one of these installed). If not, go to your appropriate App Store in your web browser to download the app you need. ▪ https://apps.apple.com/us/genre/ios/id36 ▪ https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=20426 ▪ https://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.html Step 3 – ▪ On a Mac device, go to your ‘Downloads’ folder and double-click on the link that has the name of the file you downloaded. This will extract the compressed .zip file to show a folder icon with the same name (minus the .zip). Open that folder and double click on the file with the ‘.m3u’ extension at the of its name. This should automatically launch your default media player, load the album into your player’s library and begin playing the first track (check your volume or mute button if you don’t hear anything). If this doesn’t work, you may need to manually launch your media player. ▪ On a Windows device, right-click on the downloaded file and then select ‘Extract’ from the contextual menu options.

  • How to Use the VLC Media Player Together with Barix Products
    How to use the VLC Media Player with the Barix devices The VLC Media Player can be used to stream audio from the PC to the Barix Exstreamers or Barix Annuncicoms. But it can also listen to Barix encoders, like the Barix Instreamer and the Barix Annuncicom. It is a freeware software and can be downloaded from http://www.videolan.org . This document is referring to the current available VLC Media Player version 2.2.0 Streaming a file/playlist to Barix decoder To send a MP3 RTP stream from the VLC to a Barix Exstreamer execute the following steps: – first open VLC – select from VLC main menu : MEDIA – Open (advanced) … – there select your audio files (MP3) or your playlist file (m3u) – select “Stream” from the “Play” button menu A new window opens, click on “Next”. On next screen “RTP Audio/Video Profile” and click on “Add”. As next define target IP-address and target port number then click “Next”. On next screen set the target format “Audio-MP3”. “Transcoding” is mostly not needed and can be deactivated then click “Next”. As last comes the Summary/Option setup screen showing the command line for the before selected options, click on “Stream” to start the streaming. Such stream can be received e.g. from the “Barix Streaming Client” firmware, the “Any to All” firmware or the STL firmware. Option command for RAW UDP Streaming e.g. to Annuncicom :sout=#duplicate{dst=std{access=udp,mux=raw,dst=224.0.0.1:3030}} (String is for the Option Setup screen, see picture above, generates a RAW UDP multicast stream to port 3030) The target port number and/or target IP address at the end of the string is changable! Thereafter click on “Stream”.

  • Find Files and Do Stuff with GNU Find Serge Y
    Find Files and Do Stuff with GNU find Serge Y. Stroobandt Copyright 2014–2020, licensed under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA Introduction I can still remember how my first encounter with the find command infused a considerable amount of «shock and awe» in me. This had all the looks of cer- tainly not going to be an easy command to learn! Over the years, I painstaking- ly gathered a number find recipes which eventually led to the inception of this article. Nowadays, I find find hardly difficult.riting W this article helped a lot in get- ting a feel for find . Knowing that I can always fall back on this recipe collec- tion certainly also strengthened my present day confidence. Are you equally interested in becoming a find guru? Now, do yourself a favour and have a quick look at man find . Done? Let us continue then with some examples for fun and profit… When not to use find Gain speed with locate When looking for a hard to find file or directory that already exists for some while on your drive, do not use find but use locate instead. $ locate filename The reason is queries with locate execute much faster than with find. Unlike find , locate uses a previously created database to perform the search. This database is updated periodically from cron .Nevertheless, there are many in- stances where the use of find is required, albeit because find offers an -exec clause. Numerous examples are given below. 1 Unleash the power of globstar Here is a real-life example where I unleashed the power of globstar .
