I had already with the Radiotracker and AudialsOne test two products from Rapid Solution.
Well Rapid Solution Tunebite 7 has a new version of its audio and video downloader imagined that I could also test it in the platinum version.

Tunebite is 7, it also featured in a limited time but unlimited freeware version. With this you can record videos already on YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Clipfish and MyVideo. It can even extract the audio track, which is still a legal way is to come at music from the net.

The platinum version of Tunebite is 7 then the universal recorder for audio and video streams from the Internet. Streaming is currently the technology of the Internet movies, music and Höhrbücher be provided. Who wants to learn a bit more about it should be the result 137 of the Chaos Radio Express listen to podcasts.
Streams have the property that they must not only be transferred completely to your own computer to be able to see. Moreover, just video content is often provided with a DRM that will prevent the recording.

At this point, Tunebite, 7, and it allows the user to streamed content with no DRM and record to any format and convert, so that a reproduction is possible even without an Internet connection.
Tunebite comes here in the new version with high-definition video (HD) deal (a fast internet connection required).

There are basically three ways to capture video and audio sources from the Internet. The most convenient is the automatic detection of the media, while surfing in the browser. This method is supported on the following Internet services: youtube.de, sevenload.de, clipfish.de, myvideo.de, mediathek.zdf.de, ardmediathek.de, last.fm, grooveshark.com.
The recording on the screen or the sound card is recommended for "encrypted" Web content or when the normal web functionality has achieved unsatisfactory results.
An active community lists other sources on the Internet and gives tips on what method works best recording.

The recorded files can use Tunebite 7 is equal to the appropriate file format for PC, mobile phone, iPhone, iPod, PSP and Xbox will be converted in order to display it on these devices in best quality.

The converter also helps further affected by DRM files and audio books.

Conclusion:
As in previous tests can also be seen in Tunebite 7 is that it is excellent for capturing audio and video sources from the Internet is. Plays, of course, their real strength only from the platinum version.
That in addition to the commercial version and a freeware version is offered, but I hope for the future.

To get the desktop of a remote computer to get on his PC, there are different solutions. In the Windows environment, there are remote desktop connections to 1:1, and otherwise the terminal server for multiple users to simultaneously access the remote desktop.
A large commercial vendors, many of which also may be aware, Citrix.

If you want to spend any money you end up with fast VNC and its derivatives (such as UltraVnc).

I personally use Windows Remote Desktop also Microsoft's own solution, because it clearly in terms of performance in the lead has. For a Linux desktop (KDE also because the way he is faster than Gnome) but I had to rely on VNC.

Dissatisfied with the performance of this solution, I've been looking all the time for an alternative and they are now found with FreeNX from NoMachine. FreeNX is not only better performance but also in the server version is less stress to the system resources. FreeNX is the free version limited to 3 concurrent users (which I personally goes well).

After the download (for Kubuntu are available on the NoMachine site * deb packages are available.), the packets for the server mode (ie on the Linux system, which will provide the desktop) must be recorded in the following order:

 -i nxclient_3.3.0- 6 _i386.deb ... > Sudo dpkg-i nxclient_3.3.0 _i386.deb-6 ...  Libaudiofile0 package is not installed.  Resolving the ... # 

Then the server is immediately available and can be used. For additional configurations you ought to be the installation notes in /usr/NX/share/documents/server/install-notices read (rtfm :-) ).

FreeNX Client Optionen

There are clients for Windows, Linux and MacOS. You can install as painless as part of the server. Used by me in the Windows client (the MacOS client I will test it) you can build up after the installation using a wizard to connect to the Linux system and then either use the KDE (in all its beauty) as well as individual programs.



Other Linux desktops (like Gnome or XFCE) do work just as well. :-)

250 Jahre Guinness

Those who work hard should not forget to celebrate once.

What a better fit than the 250th Anniversary of Guinness (this delicious, Irish, black beer) on this day.

My recommendation:
Looking for you a pub near you and enjoy a pint of Guinness in the good weather.
In Frankfurt, will Waxy's Irish Pub from 18:59 clock the ceremony broadcast live.
Early appearance as always ensures the best seats. :-)

Apache Directory groovy-ldap

Directory services, LDAP support (L D ightweight irectory A ccess P rotocol) are increasingly used for authentication in applications.

How easy it is with the Java-based scripting language Groovy to query an LDAP server, shows the Apache Directory project, with its library groovy-ldap .

After the download and unpack the ZIP file, you need only include the jar file in the classpath and then the game can start. Here's a quick example:

     ls. isInLdap ( dn ) ) ls. read ( dn ) if (Ls. isInLdap (dn)) ls. read (dn)
   }
 } 

On the wiki page of the project and the articles of Groovy Zone are also examples for adding, modifying and deleting LDAP entries.
A list of public LDAP servers for testing, there are.
