/*--------------------------------------------------------------
Program: eth_websrv_LED

Description: Arduino web server that serves up a web page
allowing the user to control an LED

Hardware: - Arduino Uno and official Arduino Ethernet
shield. Should work with other Arduinos and
compatible Ethernet shields.
- LED and resistor in series connected between
Arduino pin 2 and GND

Software: Developed using Arduino 1.0.3 software
Should be compatible with Arduino 1.0 +

Linux Fixes / SSH Installing/Configuring PuTTy and Xming

October 18, 2018, 12:35:31 PM

Installing/Configuring PuTTy and Xming

Most of us connect to the CTM server via a PC running Windows, essentially making the PC a terminal. The PC interacts with the server through the X-windows system, forwarding the display from the server to the PC. Software must be installed on the PC to make this link work and the best software (so far) for this task is the PuTTy terminal emulator and the Xming X-window client.

PuTTy can be downloaded from http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
Xming can be downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading.php?group_id=156984&filename=Xming-6-9-0-31-setup.exe

Once PuTTy and Xming have been downloaded to the PC, install according to their respective instructions.

Configuring Xming
Once Xming is installed, run the application called 'XLaunch' and verify that the settings are as shown:

Save the configuration and close XLaunch

Configuring PuTTy
After installing PuTTy, double-click on the PuTTy icon on the desktop and configure as shown:

The most important setting is the X11 Forwarding. Without that set, the X-window system cannot find your PC for display. Save the configuration by typing a name (i.e. CTM) in the box under 'Saved Sessions' on the Sessions screen. Press the Save button to save the configuration. Click Open to open the terminal window or Cancel to close PuTTy.
The next time PuTTy is run, the session named CTM will be shown. Select CTM with the mouse and click Open to launch.

Linux Fixes / Send Gmail Mail from Application

September 19, 2018, 07:20:35 PM

Installing a Mail Client

For this solution you'll need a throwaway Gmail account, as you are going to specify your Gmail password in a configuration file.

Start by installing the tools you'll be using to send emails:

sudo apt-get install ssmtp
sudo apt-get install mailutils
sudo apt-get install mpack

Next, run:

sudo nano /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf

and ensure that file contains the following configuration parameters, making sure that your Gmail account credentials are in place:

root=postmaster
mailhub=smtp.gmail.com:587
hostname=raspberrypi
AuthUser=yourgmailusername@gmail.com
AuthPass=yourgmailpassword
FromLineOverride=YES
UseSTARTTLS=YES

Finally send a test email with an attachment from the target_dir directory:

mpack -s "Test Email" [target_dir/filename] [recipientEmailAddress]

If this mail arrives you are good to go to the next step.

General Discussion / Convert Media Using FFmpeg

September 19, 2018, 12:03:23 PM

.AVI VIDEO TO .MPG
ffmpeg –i – Shawshank_Redemption.avi Shawshank_Redemption.mpg

ffmpeg -i video.flv video.mpeg

.MP4 to .WMV:
ffmpeg –i – video_name.wmv final_video_name.mp4

.AVI to .FLV:
ffmpeg –i – original_video.avi –f flv final_video.flv

PAL format

ffmpeg –i –original_video.avi –target pal-svcd final_video.mpg

NTSC format:

ffmpeg –i –original_video.avi –target ntsc-svcd final_video.mpg

You can use the command to copy the video in any format.
ffmpeg –i –origine.mp4 –c:v copy –c:a copy –final.mkv

copy the audio of a video
ffmpeg –i –origine.mp4 –vn –acodec copy audio.aac

display your media file details
ffmpeg -i video.mp4

convert input.mp4 video file to output.mp3 audio file
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vn -ab 320 output.mp3

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vn -ar 44100 -ac 2 -ab 320 -f mp3 output.mp3

-vn – Indicates that we have disabled video recording in the output file.
-ar – Set the audio frequency of the output file. The common values used are 22050, 44100, 48000 Hz.
-ac – Set the number of audio channels.
-ab – Indicates the audio bitrate.
-f – Output file format. In our case, it's mp3 format.

compress audio files using -ab flag in order to save some disk space
ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -ab 128 output.mp3

The list of various available audio bitrates are:

96kbps
112kbps
128kbps
160kbps
192kbps
256kbps
320kbps

convert the first 50 seconds of given video.mp4 file to video.avi format
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -t 50 output.avi

split the large video files into multiple smaller parts
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -t 00:00:30 -c copy part1.mp4 -ss 00:00:30 -codec copy part2.mp4

Create join.txt file that contains the exact paths of the files that you want to join. All files should be same format (same codec). The path name of all files should be mentioned one by one like below.

/home/sk/myvideos/part1.mp4
/home/sk/myvideos/part2.mp4
/home/sk/myvideos/part3.mp4
/home/sk/myvideos/part4.mp4

Now, join all files using command:

$ ffmpeg -f concat -i join.txt -c copy output.mp4

The above command will join part1.mp4, part2.mp4, part3.mp4, and part4,mp4 files into a single file called "output.mp4".

Play Video
ffplay video.mp4
Play Audio
ffplay audio.mp3

Windows Fixes / Run a PowerShell script from a batch file

August 21, 2018, 02:56:57 PM

You need the -ExecutionPolicy parameter:

Powershell.exe -executionpolicy remotesigned -File C:\Users\SE\Desktop\ps.ps1

Otherwise PowerShell considers the arguments a line to execute and while Set-ExecutionPolicy is a cmdlet, it has no -File parameter.

Raspberry Pi / GPIO Turn On Off Switch or Switches over web

June 14, 2018, 05:54:09 PM

1. Installing and Using the Wiring Pi Library
At raspberry prompt type: git clone git://git.drogon.net/wiringPi
if you need git type: apt-get install git-core
Then cd ~/wiringPi and ./build
To check if installed type: gpio -v then gpio readall
Install Apache and PHP on the Pi with apt-get install apache2 php5 libapache2-mod-php5
You might have to chmod -R 777 /var/www/html to copy over the files copy all the file in the Raspberry_web_Switch_control.zip to the web server folder /var/www/html
navigate to using a webrowser to the pi ip address and see if working.

in the index.php change the $i= 0; $i<1 1 =One Button on the screen or whatever number you want up to 8

button 0= Gpio pin 11

# Enables and defines variable bitrate for the ffmpeg encoder.
# ffmpeg_bps is ignored if variable bitrate is enabled.
# Valid values: 0 (default) = fixed bitrate defined by ffmpeg_bps,

# Codec to used by ffmpeg for the video compression.
# Timelapse mpegs are always made in mpeg1 format independent from this option.
# Supported formats are: mpeg1 (ffmpeg-0.4.8 only), mpeg4 (default), and msmpeg4.
# mpeg1 - gives you files with extension .mpg
# mpeg4 or msmpeg4 - gives you files with extension .avi
# msmpeg4 is recommended for use with Windows Media Player because
# it requires no installation of codec on the Windows client.
# swf - gives you a flash film with extension .swf
# flv - gives you a flash video with extension .flv
# ffv1 - FF video codec 1 for Lossless Encoding ( experimental )
# mov - QuickTime ( testing )
# ogg - Ogg/Theora ( testing )
